Stealing Your Heart (Lin Xinyan) novel Chapter 64

Stealing Your Heart Chapter 64

The whole He family knew about the cancelation of the engagement, including He Ruize, who learned from He Ruilin the reason why Zong Jinghao canceled the engagement.

So after seeing him, he couldn’t hide his anger.

Next to him, his elder brother, He Ruixing, sensed his fluctuating mood, so he reached out and patted him on the shoulder, whispering, “Our family has deep roots, otherwise we would have been unable to survive in B City. You’re out of the country all year round, and don’t know about the situation in China. Although he was the one who calls off the engagement, we should not fall out with him.”

He Ruize was not only angry because he backed out, but also because he discovered Lin Xinyan.

Six years ago, in order for Lin Xinyan to get rid of him completely, he took her away from B City and hid her in Country A.

He thought that Lin Xinyan would be able to accept him after a long time, and that six years would be able to cut off the little bit of connection between her and Zong Jinghao.

But it had been six years, and Lin Xinyan still refused to accept him.

Zong Jinghao even called off the marriage with his sister because of her.

How can he stay calm?

“Do you think you can do whatever you want just because you have some damned money?” He Ruize made no secret of his disgust and dissatisfaction toward him.

He Ruize didn’t keep his voice down, so Zong Jinghao heard it, and cast his gaze at him. He remembered that this man had been close to Lin Xinyan before.

He flicked the non-existent dust off the collar and said calmly, “What did you say? I didn’t catch it.”

He Ruixing hurriedly stepped forward to smooth things over. “He’s just complaining, as you’re canceling the wedding with Lin. Don’t mind him.”

While speaking, He Ruixing tugged He Ruize, telling him to stop talking.

Ignoring his brother, He Ruize was not afraid of Zong Jinghao. “Aren’t you afraid of karma for hurting a woman like this?”

He Ruixing’s face changed, and he glared at He Ruize. Do we have to become enemies after failing to become in-laws?

What good is it for them to become enemies with the Zongs?

I work so hard for this family, but he never contributed to the family, and still, he comes to make trouble?

At this moment, He Ruixing was disappointed in his selfish younger brother who only thought for himself and did not consider their family.

Zong Jinghao put on a false smile, and said in an intriguing tone, “I’m just afraid that the karma will strike the wrong people.”

He Ruize clenched his fists tightly, looking like he could rush to fight Zong Jinghao if He Ruixing wasn’t grabbing him.

“They are all inside. You should go in first. He loves Ruilin who has been separated from us and suffering since childhood. That’s why he spoke so carelessly. Don’t mind him.” He Ruixing smiled apologetically.

Zong Jinghao glanced at him indifferently and walked in.

Zong Qifeng and He Wenhuai were sitting on the main sofa in the hall talking.

He Ruilin was sitting next to He Wenhuai, with bloodshot eyes, as if she had cried.

Her initially sophisticated make-up was smudged.

Seeing Zong Jinghao coming in, she quickly stood up. “Hao—”

Zong Jinghao didn’t answer her, as he sat on the sofa, and said preemptively, “I’m the one who calls off the engagement, so tell me any demand that you have.”

Zong Qifeng was incensed.

He and He Wenhuai spent a long time talking in the house, because he didn’t want to cancel the engagement.

The union of the two families through marriage was a good cooperation for both the Zong family and the He family.

It was a mutually beneficial thing.

“Jinghao, I don’t understand you young people’s relationships. You suddenly call off the engagement. Is it because Lin has made some mistakes?” He Wenhuai looked kind, and his tone of speech was neither annoyed nor impatient.

He was calmer than his two sons.

At his age, he had seen all kinds of things, so he could remain calm.

If the He family yelled and accused him, it would be easier for him to handle it. But, things became harder as he was faced with an experienced cunning man like He Wenhuai.

Zong Jinghao was not easy to deal with either. Although he had not experienced many things as He Wenhuai had, he also went through great storms, and so he said in an imposing manner, “I don’t like people lying to me.”

Upon hearing his words, He Wenhuai felt uneasy. Did Ruilin really make mistakes and he find out?

Zong Jinghao didn’t want to dig up the past, and just wanted to solve the immediate matter as soon as possible.

“I’m reckless in this matter. I shouldn’t agree to it and then regret it later. After all, I broke the promise first. What compensation do you want? Just tell me. As long as it is something I can afford, I will never be stingy.”
