Stealing Your Heart

“Who are you?” It was obvious that He Ruize was not planning to open the door because he did not know who was behind the door.

Lin Xinyan stared at the door as her heart beat faster and faster. Could it be that Zong Jinghao had found his way here?

She was filled with hope.

The man was determined. He loudly smacked onto the door a few more times. “Open the door or we’ll break it.”

He Ruize seemed to know who the men outside were. He cursed under his breath, “Why are they checking the rooms now?”

He turned around to cover Lin Xinyan with a blanket and instructed her. “Wait for me. No matter who it is, don’t make a sound.”

Lin Xinyan had heard the quiet curse that He Ruize made. She also knew that the man outside was not Zong Jinghao.

To be honest, she did not know if Zong Jinghao was looking for her.

She had too many uncertainties towards him.

After all, there were many walls between them.

All she could do was to hope for him.

She would not reveal her thoughts of escape in front of him before she could ensure her escape. She nodded obediently. “I will.”

“Good girl.” He Ruize patted her head then turned to open the door. The moment the door opened, the men outside stormed in, and behind them was a serious looking man in simple clothes. “You two…”

“Sir, don’t be mistaken. We’re from B City and the one on the bed is my mute girlfriend. She’s not feeling well.” As he spoke, He Ruize took out his identification card and under it was a stack of money around two thousand. He handed it to the police. “Please take a look.”

The police held onto He Ruize’s identification card and rubbed the stack with his fingers. He knew how much it was. Quietly, he placed it in his pocket and took a quick glance at the identification card. He told the men on the outside, “Alright, they’re not.”
