Stealing Your Heart Chapter 41

Lin Xinyan sent him a location, and then got up from the bed. Aunt Yu happened to be coming to wake her up, so when she saw her getting up, she said, “The food is ready.”

“I won’t be eating at home. I need to go out.” Lin Xinyan tied up her hair that was slightly messy, walked to the door, and went out after changing her shoes.

Not wanting He Ruize to come here, she walked to the intersection and waited there.

Without making Lin Xinyan wait for him too long, He Ruize arrived very soon, looking different than usual.

Since Lin Xinyan knew him, he was always in casual wear or a white coat. It was the first time she saw him in suit and tie.

He Ruize got off the car to open the car door for her.

Lin Xinyan didn’t get in immediately, but asked, “Is it an important occasion?”

His attire looked very formal.

“Not really.” Because he didn’t care.

Lin Xinyan bent down to get in the car, and neither of them mentioned the previous topic.

He Ruize was driving, whereas Lin Xinyan remained silent.

The atmosphere in the car was somewhat ambiguous.

“Don’t be nervous. Just follow me when we’re there.” He Ruize deliberately looked for something to say.

It would be awkward if it was too quiet, particularly after he made the confession.

Lin Xinyan readily agreed because of his care for her, which had nothing to do with her feelings.

“Okay.”

He turned to look at her. She had a ponytail, with her face the size of a palm, a pretty nose, and pink lips. Every part of her was delicate. She had really grown up and was no longer that little girl.

“Do you not like me because I’m too old, Yan?” He Ruize raised the corners of his lips.

Lin Xinyan smiled. “You’re only in your twenties. You’re not old, Ruize.”

You’re not even 30 years old yet.

He reached over to touch her hair. “It’s true that girls are sweet.”

Lin Xinyan took his hand off her head. “Why do I feel like you’re taking advantage of me?”

“Am I?” He Ruize smiled.

Lin Xinyan pretended to be angry and ignored him.

Whilst they chatted, the car had been parked in front of a building. The huge display screen was showing the development history of Dingfeng Jewelry, and rows of luxury cars were parked at the entrance. Lin Xinyan was inexplicably nervous.

He Ruize opened the car door for her and extended his hand to her. “I’m here with you. Don’t be nervous.”

Lin Xinyan looked at him for two seconds, whereas He Ruize stretched out his hand again. “You have to go in with me. You are my plus-one today.”

Lin Xinyan stretched out her hand.

The red carpet was laid out until it reached the lobby. On both sides of the door stood two men in black suits, and in the middle stood a slightly older receptionist.

Seeing He Ruize, he took a few steps forward to greet him. “Young Master Ruize.”

Lin Xinyan turned her head to glance at him. She knew that he wasn’t an ordinary person, but she didn’t expect that he was from the same He family that owned Dingfeng Group.

The Zongs, on the other hand was a rising star with many talented members. When the business was passed on to Zong Jinghao, it was already a market leader in B City, that even Dingfeng, a time-honored brand, could not compare.

Wanyue had diversified industries and covered a wide range of fields. Its Superior Investment Bank co-invested with HSBC had a good reputation internationally.

He Ruize lightly nodded in respond.

“Let’s go.” He Ruize turned to look at Lin Xinyan. “Are you feeling awkward?”

Lin Xinyan nodded.

“Actually, I am feeling awkward too.” He Ruize said with a smile.

He wasn’t interested in doing business.

The family business was run by his brother.
