Stealing Your Heart Chapter 640

As if answering his own question, Su Zhan laughed awkwardly and said, “Don’t worry. I no longer long for you. If my presence here is choking you, then let me be the one to leave. You don’t have to go. Please stay.”

Taking off his napkin and putting down the knife and fork in his hands, he stood up and said once more, “Just sit down and eat. I’ll leave to make you feel at ease and eat in peace.”

Having said that, he turned to Xinyan and bid her farewell, “Xinyan, I’ll take my leave now.”

Xinyan could not say anything, so she could only watch him leave.

After Su Zhan left, she pulled Qin Ya to make her sit down once more.

Even after she obediently sat down, she had lost her appetite. Xinyan handed her a sheet of tissue and comforted, “Cry if you want to cry. Let it all out, dear. You will feel better after crying.”

Sensing they were not needed, Jinghao and Shao Yun left. Glancing at them, she had initially felt that the setting here was not appropriate, but she kept her opinion to herself.

As for the two men, there were reasons for them taking their leave as well. Jinghao had something to say to Shao Yun.

The latter had helped him greatly last time, but due to both of them being busy, neither of them had the luxury to sit down and talk their hearts out.

After this incident, Jinghao knew that Xinyan’s father was not a plain Joe. Otherwise, there would not have friends like Shao Yun.

Although he had not done much, the clues in his hands were valuable and rare. After all, he could not track and trace the incidents which happened long in the past.

“Is everything all right?” Shao Yun asked curiously.

When he was not putting on his mischievous smiley face, he looked scary – the type that would make any unfortunate children who set their eyes on him cry in fear.

However, when he was not so serious, and when he had his playful smile on, he instantly became very approachable.

Very rarely would he suppress his smile, for he always carried a jovial, gleeful look.

Jinghao revealed, “A task force has been set up to investigate this case. Since it has caused such a huge trouble, the matter must be tightly monitored and investigated.”

Shao Yun nodded his head in agreement, “If you need any help, just give me a holler.”

As far as he was concerned, she was not an outsider. After all, Xinyan’s husband was his close buddy’s son-in-law.

Jinghao did not want to put too much burden on him. With the current trouble in hand, it was already quite a handful to handle.

“Let me drop Qin Ya back first.” Xinyan was seen walking over, for she had also lost her appetite. Plus she did not feel like staying here for too long. Also, since Qin Ya did not want to go back to the villa, she wanted to take her out to relax.

Jinghao offered, “Let me send you back.”

He was worried about Xinyan, she was pregnant, yet she had to take care of others. He was afraid that she would overexert herself.

During times like this, Qin Ya definitely did not want to have too many people around her. Xinyan rejected his offer, “We’re not thinking of going home yet. We would still like to have a stroll somewhere. I’ve already booked a room in Narada Hotel. You can send him there for a rest.”

Originally, she had intended for Shao Yun to stay in the villa. However, it had run out of available rooms. There were already two maids, added with the presence of Zong Qifeng and Cheng Yuwen as well as Qin Ya and the children. The remaining rooms were the utility room and the study, but she could not make those available. Left with no choice, she booked a good hotel.

Shao Yun waved his hand and said, “Just tell me the place and I’ll get there on my own. I’m already old enough. I don’t need anyone to fetch me here and there like a kid.”

Xinyan smiled, “Uncle, you have not eaten much for lunch. If you’re feeling hungry please do order something to eat at the hotel. I’ll pick you up at night and show you around.”

“Don’t worry. I can take care of myself. You can take care of Ya. Do whatever you need to do, I’ll be alright.” Shao Yun gave her the nonchalant look, the kind to indicate that he could fit in anywhere, anytime to put her at ease. “Just tell me the location of the villa, and I’ll go there by myself tonight.”

Knowing full well Shao Yun’s character, Xinyan had no choice but to tell him about the address before leaving with Qin Ya.

As for whether Jinghao was the one sending him back or perhaps he got back on his own, she had no idea.

“Shall we go to the movies?” Xinyan suggested, trying to break the awkward silence.
