Stealing Your Heart (Lin Xinyan) novel Chapter 856

The sky was dark when Shen Peichuan drove to Lin Xinyan’s place.

Sang Yu was playing with the baby in the living room, and the first thing Shen Peichuan did was ask her what happened that day.

“Don’t you already know everything? It’s just like what I said earlier,” replied Sang Yu.

Shen Peichuan reached out to play with the baby too, but Sang Yu slapped his hands away and demanded, “Have you washed your hands?”

Shen Peichuan had no answer to that.

“You must wash your hands before playing with the baby,” insisted Sang Yu.

“Never mind then, I won’t play with the baby.”

Shen Peichuan sat on the sofa, and Sang Yu inched toward him. She said, “I freaked out when I saw that box of money. I thought that I had gotten you in trouble. Fortunately, Xinyan helped me out and came up with a solution. Who knows what would happen if she hadn’t?”

Sang Yu had her eyes on Shen Peichuan as she asked, “Did you piss someone off?”

Why else would someone go through all that to hurt us?

Shen Peichuan answered nonchalantly, “I’ll deal with it.”

Sang Yu replied, “Okay, I’m glad you have a plan. Oh, by the way, remember to thank Xinyan when we have dinner together, okay? I couldn’t reach your phone at the time and was completely out of my wits. If Xinyan hadn’t taught me what to do, things would’ve spiraled out of control.”

Shen Peichuan nodded.

Creak!

The door to the bedroom opened. Zong Yanxi and Zong Yanchen stood on either side of Zong Qifeng to support him in. Zong Qifeng’s health was deteriorating every day, and he had so much trouble walking that he needed others’ help.

Shen Peichuan saw that the kids weren’t able to help Zong Qifeng properly, so he got up to help the elderly man. “Here, let me help you to the sofa,” offered Shen Peichuan.

Zong Qifeng nodded.

Zong Qifeng couldn’t sit for long, either. He became worn out soon, so Shen Peichuan later helped the former back to the bedroom.

When it was time for dinner, Lin Xinyan put the food on the tray and brought it into the room.

Zong Qifeng didn’t have any appetite, and he seemed uncomfortable while lying on the bed. Lin Xinyan quickly placed the tray on the table and suggested, “Let me get the doctor over.”

Zong Qifeng replied weakly, “It’s fine. Y-You can go.”

That was not the first time Lin Xinyan saw Zong Qifeng being tortured by his illness. That pain was not something others could take away, and her heart ached to watch him like that.

Zhuang Zijin and Aunt Yu were there to deal with dinner, so Lin Xinyan wasn’t needed. Lin Xinyan got out of the room and secretly called the doctor over.

She hung up after she heard the doctor say that he would hurry over.

Lin Xinyan was sorrowful and scared when she saw Zong Qifeng’s condition worsening. She tilted her head up and stared at the stars dotting the night sky.

“Why are you sitting here?”
