Stealing Your Heart

They couldn’t get into the isolated room, so they only saw Qin Ya from behind the glass. Qin Ya was still unconscious and her face was bandaged with only her eyes being shown.

The medical devices beeped steadily all around her.

Su Zhan was leaning against the glass window, devastated. He never made a sound, but Lin Xinyan could see his shoulders trembling. She knew he was sobbing quietly.

“I was surprised when I heard what happened. We met up just some time ago, and she told me she wanted to leave this place. She wanted to find somewhere peaceful to give birth to the baby… Who would’ve thought that something like this would happen?”

Su Zhan’s hands were on the glass window and he clenched them tightly. He spoke between sobs, “This is all my fault…”

“What’s the point of realizing all that now?” Lin Xinyan knew she shouldn’t risk triggering him at that moment, but she felt like it was necessary to make things clear. Before Lin Xinyan turned and left with a broken heart, she told Su Zhan, “I will get in your way and stop the two of you from being together, even if Qin Ya eventually forgives you.”

One’s appearance was one’s mark. Qin Ya could go for plastic surgery, but she would never be the way she used to be again.

There was a time when Qin Ya was cheerful and led an optimistic life, but she hadn’t been happy since she got together with Su Zhan.

Her injuries only made things worse. Lin Xinyan was sad for her friend.

Zong Jinghao walked over and reached out to help Lin Xinyan push her hair behind her ear. “Let’s go home.”

Lin Xinyan nodded. Qin Ya was still unconscious, so there was nothing she could do at that moment.

Before Lin Xinyan left, she asked the doctor, “When will she wake up?”

She wanted to be there for Qin Ya when the latter woke up. She would need Lin Xinyan for moral support, especially if she learned about her disfiguration when she woke up.

“She should come around in about twelve hours,” answered the doctor.

Lin Xinyan made a mental note of that. Twelve hours… That should be around five o’clock in the morning tomorrow. Lin Xinyan later thanked the doctor before she left.

She didn’t have any dinner after she got home with Zong Jinghao. Instead, she locked herself in her room, so her husband got her a cup of milk.

Zong Jinghao sat by the bedside as Lin Xinyan laid under the blanket with her coat on. Truth was, he didn’t like it when his wife was troubled by someone else’s issue.
