Stealing Your Heart Chapter 498

The man finally looked up from the file he was holding.

Bai Yinning knew what his weakness was, so he hit the mark accurately. He was certain Zong Jinghao wouldn’t be able to focus on work and continued ignoring him after he mentioned Lin Xinyan’s name.

“If I guess correctly, you must be the one causing me troubles recently,” Bai Yinning continued. “You’re seriously a petty man. Don’t you trust your wife?”

Zong Jinghao flung his pen onto the table nonchalantly, creating a jarring noise in the otherwise silent room. He seemed restless as he tugged his tie off while sweat trickled down his body. “Mr. Bai, you seem to be in good spirits. Looks like you’re free enough to poke into other people’s businesses!”

Bai Yinning had hidden his exhaustion well. He was busy dealing with the mess, which obviously wasn’t going to be resolved soon. He wasn’t here to argue with Zong Jinghao.

Originally, he wanted to ask Zong Jinghao why a pregnant Lin Xinyan insisted on leaving him.

After finding out about Wen Qing, he also wanted to know everything about that incident.

“Yan tried her best to keep it from you, but you found out about it in the end. You were the one behind Wen Qing’s downfall, right?”

He knew nothing, so he could only guess through the information he had obtained earlier.

After saying that, something occurred to him. Did Lin Xinyan leave because Zong Jinghao blamed her for hiding the truth from him?

That’s the only reason that makes sense.

He sneered, “She told me she’ll stick with you no matter what because you’re her husband. Ha! I don’t think you’re worth her effort.”

Zong Jinghao’s expression darkened slowly. He said nothing as dark clouds gathered around him.

Bai Yinning knew when to stop before the matter escalated. He broke the silence by saying, “I’m here to thank you, Mr. Zong. I hope Wen Qing can suffer badly so my adoptive father can rest in peace.”

Zong Jinghao was on the verge of exploding in anger. “Thank me? Why does that sound like a taunt?”

Bai Yinning replied, “Mr. Zong, don’t be mad. To prove my sincerity, I have something to tell you. Yan knew about Cheng Yuxiu’s existence, but she didn’t tell you for your own good. She was afraid you couldn’t accept the fact that you once despised your own mother. She even came to me for help. I believe you must’ve guessed it some time ago. You’re the only one who knows why you refused to reveal it.”

The actual reason he came was to clear the air between Lin Xinyan and Zong Jinghao. He didn’t want her to raise her child on her own.

However, he had no idea that wasn’t the problem between Zong Jinghao and Lin Xinyan.

Zong Jinghao rose to his feet. His shirt was rumpled, but the man was still dignified. He towered above Bai Yinning and announced, “Mr. Bai, you know a lot. However, you’re too full of yourself. You know nothing, and your actions disgust me.”

Bai Yinning merely chuckled. “Really?”
