Stealing Your Heart Chapter 86
“Sorry, I was held up.” Lin Xinyan explained to her.
“Stay in touch.” Yu Doudou made a hand gesture for talking over the phone to Lin Xinyan and said, “You can also call me if you need a lift.”
Perhaps due to the common enemy, their relationship unknowingly became closer.
Lin Xinyan nodded her head.
“Fine. I’ll leave you to it. I’ve to get going.” Yu Doudou waved his hand and drove away.
He would have no income if he stopped driving.
“Ms. Lin, who is he?” Qin Ya asked out of curiosity.
How did she make a friend so easily by just taking a cab?
As Lin Xinyan didn’t want to talk about it, she just said calmly, “Why are you so anxious? Who wants to meet me?”
Qin Ya patted herself on her head and said, “I’ve almost forgotten the most important thing.” Lin Xinyan pulled Lin Xinyan and continued, “I’ve invited her to wait in the office since it is the least messy place.”
The office was Lin Xinyan’s, and she cleaned it up earlier on.
If not, there would be no other places for them to stay.
Lin Xinyan was curious to know who wanted to meet her.
“Who is that? A man or a woman?” Apart from He Ruize, she had no friend in the country.
“It’s a woman who calls herself Madam Zong. She’s rather beautiful and elegant.” Qin Ya peeked at Lin Xinyan to see her expression.
Her ex-husband is Zong Jinghao.
Is this Madam Zong her ex-mother-in-law?
Lin Xinyan frowned and thought to herself. Madam Zong?
There was no weeding nor ceremony when Zong Jinghao and her got married. She had not even seen any of Zong Jinghao’s family members.
Madam Zong? But based on what she knew, Madam Zong passed away a long time ago. Would she be… Lin Xinyan seemed to know who she was.
Aunt Yu said before that Zong Jinghao’s father remarried not long after his mother passed away.
Therefore, she could call herself Madam Zong.
But what does she want from her?
Lin Xinyan had lots of doubts.
“She’s inside. Call me if you need anything.” Qin Ya brought Lin Xinyan to the door of the office but didn’t intend to enter the office.
Lin Xinyan nodded. She opened the door only after Qin Ya left.
The office was tidied up with an office desk, a couch and a coffee table. The floor was swept too. The entire office looked rather empty and not even drinks could be served.
An elegantly dressed woman was standing in front of the sliding windows. Although Lin Xinyan couldn’t see her face, she had long hair with a bun and apparently kept her body in good shape.
As she turned around after hearing some noise, she saw Lin Xinyan standing near the door and asked, “Are you Lin Xinyan?”
Lin Xinyan could see her face clearly as soon as she turned around. She certainly withstood the test of time as she was still outstandingly beautiful.
She clasped her hand gently above her waist. She was wearing an Omega watch on her wrist, a plaid dress and a pair of black high heels and carrying a black shoulder bag on her right arm.
She might have dressed plainly as she was not wearing any superfluous jewelry, yet radiating her natural refinement.
“Yes, I am.” Lin Xinyan walked into the room and asked, “Is there anything I can do for you? I don’t really know you.”
Yuxiu smiled softly and said, “We should have already met when you’re married into the Zong family, yet…” Because the relationship between Zong Jinghao and them was not good, he didn’t bring Lin Xinyan back to meet them.
After registering their marriage, Zong Qifeng did make a call to Zong Jinghao and asked him to bring Lin Xinyan to meet them, yet Zong Jinghao declined their invitation.
The divorce that happened afterwards was also decided merely by Zong Jinghao. They only received the news when everything was done and dusted.
Lin Xinyan gave her a knowing smile and replied, “I know.”
Since the marriage with Zong Jinghao was merely a trade, it was nothing unusual that he didn’t introduce her to his family.
“Please have a seat.” Lin Xinyan gestured Yuxiu to sit down.
Yuxiu nodded lightly and sat on the couch.
