Stealing Your Heart Chapter 402

“Take care of the two little ones for me.”

That was the only help Zong Jinghao needed.

Li Zhan nodded solemnly. “You can count on me!”

Probably disturbed by Zong Jinghao’s voice, Lin Xinyan suddenly groaned as she moved her body. Zong Jinghao immediately hung up the phone to embrace Lin Xinyan and rub her back. “It’s fine. Go back to sleep.”

He was unsure if Lin Xinyan was actually awake, but she stopped moving after that.

Looking down at Lin Xinyan, Zong Jinghao caressed her cold cheek softly. As if she were a cloud that could dissipate anytime, Zong Jinghao was as tender as he could with his touch.

He was head over heels for Lin Xinyan.

After a night of staying by Lin Xinyan’s side, Zong Jinghao received a text from Shen Peichuan to see the news the next morning.

The homicide case at the bar was all over the news. There were so many rumors and speculations going around that it was overwhelming.

On the internet was a one-minute video showing how Lin Xinyan had aimed a gun at He Ruize before firing.

The comments were almost entirely one-sided; most of them demanded Lin Xinyan to pay for her sin. Some of them even speculated that it was a crime of passion and that the girl in the video had shot the guy because he cheated on her.

It would only get worse if the situation were left to fester, so Zong Jinghao called Aunt Yu to take care of Lin Xinyan. He also had Guan Jing arrange for security detail at the hospital in case reporters discovered Lin Xinyan’s location.

Before he could capture Chen Shihan, Zong Jinghao had to stop the news from spreading like wildfire.

Otherwise, the situation would get out of hand.

Zong Jinghao had his company’s Department of Public Relations hold the person who released the video accountable for their action. The video was not official, and it only served to spread rumors, so Zong Jinghao could have the person prosecuted for spreading rumors and neglecting civil liability. It was an act of defamation against Lin Xinyan.

Everyone in the company knew who Lin Xinyan was to Zong Jinghao, so they were careful not to discuss the matter in fear of provoking the man.

Since he came to the company in the morning, Zong Jinghao had been busy giving all kinds of orders to deal with the situation.

The news was so widespread that even Li Zhan, who had been staying inside, heard about it. Afraid that Lin Xichen might see the news, Li Zhan took her phone away.

Li Zhan finally realized why Zong Jinghao did not come back the day before and even asked him to stay with the children.

While he was still figuring out how to go outside safely, Li Zhan noticed Cheng Yuxiu and Zong Qifeng on their way out. “Wait! You saw the news, right?”

Cheng Yuxiu nodded and explained that they were about to go looking for Zong Jinghao. They wanted to ask him about the situation.

“Just stay home. Look after Ruixi and Xichen. That’ll be a big help for Jinghao. I know my way around the internet, so I might be able to do something about it. I’ll go look for him instead.”

After some thought, Cheng Yuxiu agreed with Li Zhan and looked at Zong Qifeng. “You should go with him. I’ll stay and look after the children.”

Zong Qifeng nodded. “Call me if anything comes up.”

Li Zhan quickly grabbed hold of the car key. “I’ll drive.”
