Stealing Your Heart

“I have something to discuss with Mr. Zong,” Bai Yinning tried his best to convince the bodyguard, but the bodyguard’s attitude was very firm. It was his job not to let any unauthorized people in, so no matter what Bai Yinning said, the bodyguard wouldn’t let him in.

Bai Yinning frowned. Why is this person so stubborn?

“I have something important…”

“What important matters do you have?” Zong Jinghao stood at the corridor and asked. His expression was indecipherable- his lips were slightly pursed and his gaze was as sharp as a knife.

Zong Jinghao looked powerful even though he was just standing far away. He had an intimidating aura. “Don’t tell me Mr. Bai is here to give me an explanation because you’ve already investigated the incident today thoroughly?”

Bai Yinning felt guilty and he apologized, “It was my mistake. Yao Qingqing figured out my location and that…”

In actual fact, Bai Yinning wasn’t even looking out for Yao Qingqing, which was why Yao Qingqing could track him down that easily.

After he sent Gao Yuan to investigate the incident, he realized that Yao Qingqing was the reason why Lin Xinyan fell into the lake. He clenched his armrest tightly, “Is Ms. Lin alright?”

“How do you plan to solve this?” Zong Jinghao didn’t answer Bai Yinning’s question directly. What Zong Jinghao wanted was an explanation.

Bai Yinning still had a bit of hope that Yao Qingqing was just careless and that she wasn’t really an evil person.

Shen Peichuan could tell that Bai Yinning was still hesitating, so he reminded, “Mr. Bai, you shouldn’t trust your instincts blindly. You can’t just give her an infinite amount of trust just because you have known her since young. Actually, you can try investigating her past. I think there will be some surprises there for you.”

“What do you mean?” it was obvious that Shen Peichuan was insinuating something.

“It’s better if you go and ask her yourself. Oh right, about the horror case the last time, I think you should give us an explanation as well. After all, it happened in your territory. You won’t be thinking about ignoring it or harboring someone right?” Shen Peichuan leaned against the wall as he fiddled with his wrists, “Even if it happened in your territory, no one could stop us if we want to mess around. Making a woman pay for her sins is easy, but it’s a crime. However, harboring someone is also a crime.”

He’s threatening me. It’s obvious that he’s threatening me.

Bai Yinning could of course understand what Shen Peichuan was trying to say. If he was to harbor Yao Qingqing, then Zong Jinghao definitely wouldn’t cooperate with him anymore. Furthermore, they would definitely become enemies.

He smiled bitterly, “I need to take responsibility for the drowning incident of Ms. Lin. I will give an explanation as well. I definitely wouldn’t harbor someone if I find any evidence about the horror incident.”

He wasn’t giving up on Yao Qingqing but instead, through that incident, he realized that something really is wrong with her.

He never thought that Yao Qingqing could do something like that to Lin Xinyan.

“Is Ms. Lin alright?” Bai Yinning asked again. He didn’t just ask because he felt responsible for the incident.

Instead, it was because he genuinely cared about Lin Xinyan’s condition.

“She’s my wife. I don’t need the concern of someone else,” Zong Jinghao was annoyed with Bai Yinning hovering around Lin Xinyan like a fly. He needed to use this opportunity to tell Bai Yinning clearly that Lin Xinyan is his, so Bai Yinning shouldn’t even think about her!

“Coveting the wife of another isn’t what a moral person should do. I think Mr. Bai is a reasonable and moral person,” Zong Jinghao said casually, but his words rendered Bai Yinning speechless.

“Where is Yao Qingqing? Mr. Bai, please show us the way,” Shen Peichuan was raring to go to interrogate Yao Qingqing as he was very curious about the secrets that she kept.

Bai Yinning inhaled sharply. He made up his mind not to defend Yao Qingqing if there was evidence that she was the one behind it.
