Stealing Your Heart (Lin Xinyan) novel Chapter 835

“When will the baby be back? I’m leaving tomorrow.” Wen Xiaoji asked.

He was here mainly for the little one, and to see Lin Xinyan at the same time.

The mother replied, “They have been out for a while, should be coming back soon. Since you are here, let’s join us for lunch.”

“Alright!” Wen Xiaoji agreed happily.

Lin Xinyan then asked Aunt Yu to prepare more food for the guests.

Worrying that Aunt Yu might be overwhelmed, she asked Wen Xiaoji to spend his time at the study.

“Don’t worry about me, go do whatever you need to.” Wen Xiaoji was very casual about it.

Lin Xinyan stood up, “Great, I’ll go and prepare lunch now.”

“I’ll come and help.” Chen Shihan was getting ready to stand up as well.

Qin Ya said, “Hey, you are pregnant. Stay here, I’ll go.”

“It’s just the first trimester, I’ll be fine.” The former stood up again only to have Lin Xinyan press her down by her shoulders. “We have enough help. If you are bored, watch some television shows.”

The latter felt a little embarrassed. “How could I stay here while you are so busy in the kitchen?”

Lin Xinyan smiled, “Family doesn’t talk stuff like that.” With that, she walked out of the living room with Qin Ya following behind. Upon entering the kitchen, she held her friend’s hand, “Are you alright?”

Qin Ya shook her head, “I’m fine.”

Lin Xinyan sighed. She was worried about her.

Even though Qin Ya managed to hide her disappointment well earlier, Lin Xinyan could still sense some of her sorrow.

When Aunt Yu saw the two of them in the kitchen, she said, “I’ll be fine on my own.”

“How long will you take to do this all by yourself? It’d be faster with more hands.” Qin Ya said. She nudged Lin Xinyan, “You didn’t do this on purpose, did you?”

After all, Chen Shihan had once been eyeing her man but was now a relative of hers. Well, a twist of fate, wasn’t it?

Lin Xinyan glanced at her friend. “Why does it feels like you are mocking me?”

“I myself is a joke, who am I to mock others?” Qin Ya then went up to Aunt Yu and said, “I’ll cut the vegetables.”

Aunt Yu said, “Alright, I’ll wash them then.”

Lin Xinyan said, “Then I guess that makes me the chef.”

Many hands made light work. With the three of them, lunch was ready in no time. Right then, Zhuang Zijin had brought the baby back. When Wen Xiaoji picked up the baby from Cheng Yuwen’s arms, he realized that the little boy really resembled Lin Xinyan a lot.

“Go take some rest, I’ll get you a glass of water.” Cheng Yuwen told Zhuang Zijin.

The latter walked to them, “How can I let you do that? I’ll do it myself. I guess you’re more tired than I do. You were the one who kept carrying the baby.”

She then poured a glass of water and passed it to him.

Cheng Yuwen smiled.

Aunt Yu shouted as she served the dishes, “Wash your hands, lunch is ready.”
