Stealing Your Heart

With a muffled bang, He Ruize’s eyes widened as he turned around slowly. He could see a tall figure with his coat like he was rooted to the ground. He remained prideful and arrogant standing against the cold blasts and there was a gun in his hand.

He Ruize’s eyes opened wider and wider. He looked even more ferocious. The corners of his mouth twitched as he spoke, “You…”

Unable to stand, he collapsed and fell in a kneeling position.

Lin Xinyan watched him fall right before her eyes.

A sigh of relief gushed out of her lungs and her body swayed in the wind. Soon, she came back to her senses and she unbuckled the belt around her hands and went to the old lady lying on the ground immediately and called out, “Grandma.”

Holding the old lady in her arms, Lin Xinyan checked for her breath and found that she was still breathing.

“Grandma,” Su Zhan rushed over. Lin Xinyan summoned the last bit of her strength, “Send grandma to the hospital quickly.”

Su Zhan cast a glance at her and hurriedly carried the old lady into the car. He shouted at the bodyguard, “Hurry up!” as he was worried about his grandmother’s condition

Pressing one hand against the ground, Lin Xinyan tried to push herself to her feet. Suddenly someone grabbed her other wrist. A pair of shiny leather shoes came into her view. Her gaze moved upwards and she could see a pair of long slender legs and then, a distinctive angular face.

With a firm and gentle pull, Zong Jinghao lifted Lin Xinyan up. In the next instant, she was held in his warm strong chest.

She lifted her head and the strong wind pulled at her long hair in every direction.

Zong Jinghao brushed aside the hair from her forehead and pushed it behind her ears.

She smiled for she was finally safe. “We are safe now. Thank god you arrived right on time.”

Her words did not relieve Zong Jinghao’s tensed expression but rather he seemed more stressed. He embraced her hard, squeezing her body against his.

She could sense his somber mood vaguely. She wanted to ask him but she saw two bodyguards carrying He Ruize before throwing him into the car.

Lin Xinyan had never seen Zong Jinghao so violent before so she did not ask him why he had a gun. Instead, she asked him a question in a low voice on something she was more concerned about, “Will he die?”

He Ruize had done wrong, no doubt. He should be punished by the law. It would be a costly mistake if Zong Jinghao were to take the law into his own hands.
