Stealing Your Heart (Lin Xinyan) novel Chapter 986

He held her hand. “Yanxi, let’s go in.”

Zhuang Jiawen unloaded the luggage from the trunk.

Zong Yanxi nodded. “Let’s go.”

As they entered the house, they switched on the lights to the living room. With a flip of the switch, the whole house lit up at once.

Zong Yanxi remarked. “Why don’t both of you sleep first? I’ll go see Mom and Dad.”

She knew that her parents were definitely still awake.

Zhuang Jiawen replied, “Okay.”

After he brought her luggage to her room, Shen Xinyao and him headed upstairs.

However, Shen Xinyao was worried, “Is Yanxi…”

“She will manage. Don’t worry.” Zhuang Jiawen ushered her into the room to sleep.

Standing at the door, she reminded him, “Just keep watch downstairs, alright?”

Zhuang Jiawen’s room was further inside. Although both of them were about to be married soon, the most they did was kiss and nothing beyond that.

To Zhuang Jiawen, sleeping with Shen Xinyao before marriage was an irresponsible act. As for Shen Xinyao, she shared his views about the matter. Hence, despite the fact they were already promised to each other and recognized by everyone else, they had a tacit understanding of where to draw the line.

Therefore, even though they were engaged, they still slept in separate rooms.

Zhuang Jiawen grunted in acknowledgment. “You should go ahead and sleep first.”

Shen Xinyao nodded and entered her room.

The moment she closed the door, Zhuang Jiawen heaved a sigh of relief and glanced downstairs. However, he didn’t interfere and returned to his room instead.

Downstairs, Zong Yanxi stood where she was and collected herself. She hadn’t seen her parents for a year. Despite getting constant updates from Zhuang Jiawen about them and having seen recent photos, she still felt a bout of reluctance.

No matter how old she was, she was still a kid in the eyes of her parents.

At that moment, she didn’t dare face them because of the mistakes she made.

However, she was cognizant of them and didn’t want history to repeat itself, so that her parents would not have to worry.

Gathering her courage, she headed to her parent’s room.

At the door, she took a deep breath before knocking.

However, no one opened it.
