Stealing Your Heart (Lin Xinyan) novel Chapter 669

Stealing Your Heart Chapter 669

Zong Jinghao pulled the chair out for Lin Xinyan and waited until she sat down before taking his own seat with his daughter in his arms.

Su Zhan looked at the time and said, “Shen Peichuan is putting on airs this time, huh? He’s even late for his own treat.”

“Maybe he’s held up,” replied Lin Xinyan. The Shen Peichuan she knew was not a time-blind man.

“Who could this girlfriend of his be? Hasn’t Sang Yu left B City? Xinyan, do you have any idea who it might be?” Su Zhan suddenly remembered seeing him getting in a woman’s car. Could it be her?

“It’s not Sang Yu?” asked Lin Xinyan.

Shaking his head, Su Zhan replied, “She left…”

“I know who she is. I’ve met her.” Zong Yanxi cut Su Zhan off and said smugly, taking pride with the fact that she was the first to meet her, even though their first encounter was a hellish unpleasant experience.

“Really?” Su Zhan asked with a smile, “Is she pretty?”

Zong Yanxi thought about it and replied, “Just so-so.”

Regardless of how good one looked, with a bad impression, everything else was pointless.

Zong Yanxi disregarded her looks altogether and remembered only the displeasing experience with her.

As with what was unlikable about her, she couldn’t really tell. She simply didn’t like her.

Just then, two persons showed up at the door of the restaurant.

“It’s terrible to be late when we’re the one hosting.” Shen Peichuan wasn’t happy because he thought that Song Yaxin was too capricious. It was almost time already when Song Yaxin insisted on going home to change, causing them to be late eventually.

“It’s my first time meeting your friends and if I dress horribly, wouldn’t I be embarrassing you?” Song Yaxin knew as well that showing up late was not appropriate but she wanted to make a good impression on Shen Peichuan’s friends on their first meeting.

“I was looking all scruffy and hideous; aren’t you ashamed of bringing me to see your friends that way?”

Shen Peichuan could not counter what she said so he replied placidly, “What I value in people is their virtue, not the veneer. You are who you are and there’s no need to care about how you look in others’ eyes.”

Song Yaxin pursed her lips and asked, “Are you angry?”

“I’m not. Alright now, we are here.” Shen Peichuan signaled her to stop speaking while he pushed open the door of the private room and greeted the others with a smile, “We’re so sorry for being late.”

Song Yaxin was indeed pretty and her outfit was also tasteful and elegant. Taking Shen Peichuan’s arms, she smiled and said, “Sorry, the traffic was congested on our way here so we’re late.”

Shen Peichuan furrowed his eyebrows in surprise that she actually lied.

It was clearly because she insisted on changing into another outfit that we’re late. How could she lie that it was because of traffic congestion?

“It’s okay, no worries.” Su Zhan smiled and sized her up while raising his eyebrows. It’s really that woman.

Shen Peichuan introduced him to Song Yaxin, “This is my friend, Su Zhan.”

Song Yaxin put on a graceful smile. “Hello.”

Su Zhan nodded lightly.

Meanwhile, Zong Yanxi lay on Zong Jinghao’s shoulder and whispered in his ear, “Daddy, I don’t like this Aunt. I despise her.”

Zong Jinghao patted her back and lowered his voice, “Mind your manners.”

Zong Yanxi pouted and replied in a low voice, “I’m just being honest.”

“Xinyan, this is Song Yaxin, my girlfriend.” Shen Peichuan led Song Yaxin to Lin Xinyan and introduced her.

“Hi,” Song Yaxin smiled as she greeted and eyeballed Lin Xinyan for a while before she turned around and pretended to look at Zong Jinghao casually while checking him out.

Even though he was silent all the while, she had noticed this man since she came in.

It had never occurred to her that everyone in Shen Peichuan’s circle was extraordinary.

Sure enough, excellent individuals got along with others who were equally excellent. She would have grabbed this precious man sooner if she had known about this circle of his.

Lin Xinyan replied with a smile, “Hello there.”

Her impression of Song Yaxin was fine. She’s pretty and courteous.

“We’ve been waiting for ages for you to arrive. Don’t keep us hungrily waiting again.”

“That’s true. Come on, let’s sit down quickly.” Song Yaxin tugged at Shen Peichuan to sit down together.

Su Zhan was holding his phone in his hand so he snapped a picture of Shen Peichuan and Song Yaxin together in secret and sent it to Qin Ya.

Very soon, Qin Ya replied with a shocked emoji: Who’s the woman sitting next to Shen Peichuan?

Su Zhan replied: Make a guess.

Qin Ya replied with a soaky emoji: Forget it then.
