Stealing Your Heart (Lin Xinyan) novel Chapter 923

Jiang Mohan would be in a foul mood by now. Nan Cheng wanted to talk to him, but the secretary told him President Jiang had simply refused to see anyone at that moment.

Nan Cheng dared not disobey his employer. He recalled what Jiang Mohan ordered earlier and proceeded to make a phone call while leaving the building.

I’m going to get someone to tidy the villa up.

Meanwhile, Gu Xian had already decided to meet Guan Jing. He was so nervous that he asked for Zong Yanxi’s help to pick out his outfit hours before the dinner.

Seeing how anxious he was, Zong Yanxi grumbled. “You’re not going on a blind date. Why do you need to dress up?”

Yet, Gu Xian couldn’t stop himself from being nervous. He was, after all, going to meet someone who could be his birth father formally for the first time.

Therefore, he felt the need to dress formally.

“Help me out,” Gu Xian said, looking at the ceiling.

Looking at his solemn expression, Zong Yanxi stopped teasing him. She then smoothened his tie and collar. “Done.”

“Really?”

“Yes,” she assured him.

Zong Yanxi’s phone suddenly buzzed in her pocket.

She then whipped out her phone. Beside her, Gu Xian inquired nervously, “Who is it?”

Could it be Guan Jing?

“It’s my brother,” said Zong Yanxi as she left to answer the call.

Zhuang Jiawen’s voice sounded over the phone. “When will you finish dealing with your matter?”

“What’s with the sudden question?” Zong Yanxi returned.

“I’m getting married on October 16th. Won’t you attend my wedding?” Zhuang Jiawen demanded sternly.

“Oh, I nearly forgot about it,” Zong Yanxi exclaimed.

“Mom and Dad will return to the country. Don’t tell me you’re going to avoid seeing them? Please take care of whatever that you’re doing soon,” said Zhuang Jiawen solemnly.

“Got it.”

“Xinyao and I will be visiting Dad and Mom at Thailand tomorrow. Do you have anything to tell them?”

“Send me a photo of them,” she said.

Actually, Zhuang Jiawen wanted her to come along with him. “Fine. Settle it ASAP. You’ve been in hiding for over a year. There’s not much time left.”

“Yes, I know.” Zong Yanxi looked down.

It’s quite hard to make Jiang Mohan lose everything in such a short time, though.

After hanging up, Zong Yanxi put her phone in her pocket. She had no idea Gu Xian had sneaked up to eavesdrop on her conversation. The man knew Zong Yanxi needed help, so he parted his lips and spoke, “Do you need my help?” He was standing so close to her that when she turned around suddenly, the tip of her nose grazed across his cheek.

Both were stunned in their spots.
