Stealing Your Heart

Lin Xinyan was stunned. “H-How did you know?”

But soon after that, she figured it out. Narrowing her eyes, she asked, “Did you know it a long time ago? It’s just that you didn’t tell me, right?”

Zong Jinghao tightened his grip on her hand. “Now don’t start to imagine things-”

“I am not. If you didn’t know it already, you wouldn’t have told me just now.” After the initial nervousness, clarity began to set in.

There must be a reason that Zong Jinghao hid it from me.

A thought popped into her head. Could it be that it was Lin Guoan who has died and not Zhuang Zijin? But it must have something to do with Zhuang Zijin… I mean, that’s why Zong Jinghao was hiding it from me, right?

It suddenly dawned on her that Zhuang Zijin had had a hidden agenda for insisting on remarrying Lin Guoan.

Thinking of this, she began to regret not stopping Zhuang Zijin at the time.

“When did it happen?” She had her eyes cast down while asking.

After a long silence, Zong Jinghao replied, “It was before Lunar New Year.”

In other words, it was just a few days ago.

“Is there any evidence?” asked Lin Xinyan.

“COD for Lin Guoan was because of nitrite overdose. And according to the maids, your mother has been cooking for him every day.”

She parted her lips but could not say anything. With a lump in her throat, she was annoyed that she didn’t notice what Zhuang Zijin was up to earlier.

In the cold wind, Zong Jinghao parked the car in the compound of the Criminal Investigative Division of B City.

Shen Peichuan, who was waiting at the entrance, took a few steps forward when he saw their car.

Soon after that, Lin Xinyan got out of the car, but hesitation stopped her in her tracks when she reached the entrance.

Zong Jinghao then came up to her to wrap his arms around her and comforted, “With Peichuan here, she won’t suffer. Don’t worry.”
