Stealing Your Heart (Lin Xinyan) novel Chapter 996

“I didn’t meet with him. It’s just that I have men watching and protecting Yanxi in the shadows. Hence, I know that he went to Thailand and isn’t in B City.”

Zong Jinghao hid the fact that Jiang Mohan was in C City from her.

“What is he doing in Thailand?” Lin Xinyan sneered. “Is he not afraid of bumping into me?”

“So what if you see him? You stopped me when I wanted to send men to have him beaten.”

Lin Xinyan changed the topic. “Time to wash up and go to bed.”

Although she did hate Jiang Mohan, it was just that beating him up wouldn’t make her feel any better. All she knew was that they had to stay away from him and never ever see him again.

As she wanted to get some water, Zong Jinghao stopped her by holding her by her waist. “Let me do it.”

After giving it some thought, Lin Xinyan commented, “Do you think Yanxi has really gotten over it? After all, she really liked Jiang Mohan. Do you still remember how she argued with us then?”

“She will get over it.” Zong Jinghao reassured her. “Going forward, something like that will never happen again. Don’t worry.”

“Children will always be their parents’ burden. We will always worry for them no matter what. It’s just not possible not to.” Just as she spoke, she seemed to have recalled something. Forgetting to wash up, she lay down on the bed.

Zong Jinghao who was on his way to get some water stopped in his tracks and turned to look at her. Realizing that she had thought of something, he lowered his gaze and didn’t utter a word. He continued to the bathroom to get some water.

Coming out with a basin full of water, he placed it by the bed. “Wash up before you sleep.”

Despite having heard him, Lin Xinyan feigned ignorance and pretended to sleep.

Zong Jinghao pulled the blanket aside and lifted her legs.

Lin Xinyan tucked them in. “Don’t touch me.”

Zong Jinghao leaned closer and lifted her chin so that she could see him. “We’re no longer young. Aren’t you worried about embarrassing ourselves in front of the children?”

“Am I old?” Lin Xinyan stared at him with her eyes widened.

Zong Jinghao smiled, “Not at all. To me, you’re always eighteen.”

Lin Xinyan was both angry and amused as she pushed him away. “Get up and stop deluding yourself.”

“You’re not old so naturally I’m still young.” Zong Jinghao stood up and placed her foot in the basin.

Meanwhile, on the second floor, Shen Xinyao was sitting in front of the computer hugging Dudu. When she saw the dialogue that continuously popped up on the screen, she laughed heartily.

Dudu was her pet kitten. It wasn’t of any particular breed, but a stray which she found and adopted.

When Zhuang Jiawen entered the room, he saw her laughing in front of the computer. Curious, he asked, “What are you watching?”

“I’m watching others chatting.” Shen Xinyao turned around waved at him. “Come over.”

Zhuang Jiawen walked over.

“Look at this dialogue.” Shen Xinyao motioned for him to look at the screen.
