Stealing Your Heart (Lin Xinyan) novel Chapter 998

Although she didn’t get a clear look at his face, she could recognize the man as Jiang Mohan from his silhouette.

Zhuang Jiawen furrowed his eyebrows. “Are you sure?”

Shen Xinyao shook her head. “I didn’t see his face so I can’t say so for sure. If it was really him, what do you think he is doing in C City?”

“How dare he even be here,” Zhuang Jiawen seethed. Shen Xinyao quickly caught his hand as she was worried he might act rashly. “Didn’t mom say not to get involved with him anymore? You should not act impulsively. If Mom finds out, she might be angry. Anyway, isn’t this for the better?”

The one who almost killed Zong Yanxi wasn’t Jiang Mohan. Therefore, he shouldn’t be paying for his life. However, the incident was still caused by their divorce. Hence, he was partially responsible for it.

The best thing for them was not to keep any form of contact with each other. Whenever they saw him, they would be reminded of the unpleasant past.

Therefore, treating him like a stranger was the best course of action.

At least that was what she felt.

Zhuang Jiawen replied. “I understand.”

He patted Shen Xinyao. “Why don’t you sleep early? I’m going back to my room.”

Just as he spoke, he had already stood up. However, Shen Xinyao tugged at him. “Be more discreet so as to not let anyone know.”

Zhuang Jiawen was stunned but broke out into a smile. “How do you know what I’m going to do?”

“Of course I know. You still have the network Uncle Shao left you. I figured you would get someone to give Jiang Mohan a good beating. However, you don’t consider yourself disobeying your Mom because you aren’t going to show your face. Am I right?”

“How do you know me so well?” Zhuang Jiawen wondered aloud.

“Of course. If I don’t, how would I be worthy of being your wife? Besides…”

She knelt on the sofa and hugged his arm. “I support what you’re intending to do. He almost got Yanxi killed. Giving him a beating is just a small payback for what he did. Don’t worry, I’ll help keep it a secret.”

Zhuang Jiawen could feel his heart warm as he circled his arms around her waist. When he picked her up, half her pajamas had shifted upwards, exposing her fair and slender waist. Zhuang Jiawen put her on the bed and straightened her pajamas. After tucking her in, he remarked, “Sleep tight and wait for the good news.”

Shen Xinyao nodded.

Zhuang Jiawen tempered his excitement as his gaze deepened. He wanted to quickly be done with their wedding so that he could hug her to sleep.

However, he still couldn’t do it now. After he left her room, he returned to his and made a call. First, he had to check the hotel’s guest list to confirm if Jiang Mohan was really in C City.

The next day during breakfast, Zong Jinghao told everyone that he was making a trip to B City.

“Is something wrong?” Su Zhan asked.

“I’m planning to visit Xiaoji,” Lin Xinyan replied honestly.

Everyone was aware of Wen Xiaoji’s relationship with Lin Xinyan.

Hence, Su Zhan didn’t have any more questions.

“I’ll book flight tickets for both of you.” Just as he spoke, Zhuang Jiawen went to look for his phone. However, Lin Xinyan stopped him. “Your Dad has made the reservations.”
