Stealing Your Heart Chapter 532
All he saw was the faint light that filtered through the white curtains. Pursing his lips tightly, he wondered whether he was seeing things just now.
He supposed Lin Xinyan was still in a state of shock due to Su Zhan’s sudden appearance.
Meanwhile, Lin Xinyan was leaning against the wall next to the window, trembling as she placed both hands on her chest. A strange sense of heaviness in her heart made it tough for her to breathe.
Even though she gasped for fresh air to prevent suffocation, she could not stop the complicated emotions from overwhelming her.
The moment she saw him, she was filled with both delight and apprehension.
With her eyes closed, she took a long time to regain her composure.
She guessed he decided not to visit her himself because he was still dealing with Wen Qing’s matter.
After some time, she opened her eyes, wanting to lift the curtain to take one more peek at him. For some reason, her hand suddenly froze.
It stopped in midair right before the curtain.
She had no idea what was holding her back. Was she afraid that the feelings she used to have for him would come flooding back once she laid her eyes on him again?
Slowly, she put her hand down.
Taking a deep breath, she pulled herself together and walked back to the wardrobe to pack some clothing for the kids.
They didn’t have any suitcases because she had never brought the kids on a trip since they moved to C City. As a result, she had to stuff all their clothes into a duffel bag. Fortunately, it was summer and their clothes did not occupy much space.
When the packing was done, she walked out of her room and saw Su Zhan chatting with the kids.
He stood up when he saw her.
She then passed the duffel bag to him.
“I’ll bring them back a few days later,” reassured Su Zhan. Zong Jinghao needed him to take the kids immediately so that he could set off to visit his father in Baicheng right away.
He had specially instructed Su Zhan to tell her for how long the kids would be away.
It was because he knew she needed the kids’ company more than he. Her insistence on giving birth to the kids even though she had no idea who had fathered them showed how much she loved them. On top of that, she had never been separated from them ever since they were born.
All in all, she was more attached to the kids than he was.
“I’m fine with them staying there for a longer time because I’m sure the kids miss him a lot,” Lin Xinyan said with a smile, “Are you setting off today?”
Su Zhan nodded. “Yup.”
She looked at the two kids and beckoned them over. “Come here.”
“Yes, Mommy.” The children threw themselves into her arms and clung to her lap.
She caressed their heads as she asked, “Didn’t the two of you say you miss Daddy very much? Are you guys excited to meet him?”
“Yes!” Zong Yanxi nodded vigorously.
“But I feel sad to leave Mommy behind.” Zong Yanchen nuzzled his cheeks against her body.
Seeing how hard it was for the kids to leave their mother, Su Zhan said soothingly, “I’ll bring back you two a few days later. We have to go today because I’m sure your Daddy can’t wait to see you both.”
“Mommy…” Zong Yanchen was reluctant to be separated from his mother. If it weren’t because he had to visit Grandpa, he wouldn’t leave his mother alone at home.
“Well, go on now. It’s not like the two of you won’t be coming back anymore.” Lin Xinyan entrusted the kids to Su Zhan. “Please take care of them.”
“I will.” Holding Zong Yanxi’s hand, he looked at Lin Xinyan and said, “See you in a few days.”
She mumbled her response in return. When the trio reached the door, she called out to Su Zhan at the thought of Qin Ya, who was still inside her room.
“Anything else that I should take note of?” He spun around and asked.
She quickly shook her head and said, “Nothing else. Please drive carefully.”
At first, she intended to talk about Qin Ya with him but she soon dismissed the idea as inappropriate.
After acknowledging her advice, Su Zhan hesitated for several seconds before deciding to inform her, “Wen Qing turned himself in…”
“I’m sorry but I don’t feel like knowing anything about him.” Lin Xinyan cut him off directly before he could even finish his sentence.
