Stealing Your Heart

“Instead of feeling dejected, why don’t you think of a way to remedy the situation?” Lin Xinyan encouraged him as she didn’t want to see him continue to mope.

Regret is useless because it doesn’t change anything. Besides, the hardest emotion to get over is regret itself.

Su Zhan raised his head and looked at Lin Xinyan. “What should I do now?”

He was really confused; he didn’t know what else he could do. All he could think of was the image of Qin Ya’s face being disfigured. It was seared into his mind – he couldn’t escape from it.

“You should go home and clean up first. I’ll look after Qin Ya,” Lin Xinyan replied.

Su Zhan hesitated. “What will happen if she’s willing to see me, but I’m not around?”

“Do you really think she wants to see you now?” She may be willing to do so if she’s not disfigured. However, she definitely won’t want to as of now.

If the same thing happened to me, I would definitely not want to see Zong Jinghao too. That’s how it feels like.

“Behaving like that doesn’t make things any better. In fact, you’re just torturing yourself. Do you think you will be forgiven just by moping around?”

Su Zhan grabbed onto Lin Xinyan’s sleeve in panic. “In that case, what should I do? How will she ever forgive me?”

“Forgive you?” Lin Xinyan sneered. “What would you do if you were in her place?”

Su Zhan was stumped because if their roles were reversed, he would definitely not forgive himself.

Not admonishing him further, Lin Xinyan consoled Su Zhan, “Go home first, I’ll talk to Qin Ya about it.”

Su Zhan knew how close Lin Xinyan was to Qin Ya. Therefore, he knew he still had a chance if she was willing to put in a good word for him. From the bottom of his heart, he thanked her, “Thanks, Xinyan.”

However, Lin Xinyan didn’t acknowledge him because she sided with Qin Ya more. If Qin Ya chose not to forgive Su Zhan, she would not persuade her to do so.

After sending Su Zhan away, Lin Xinyan checked with the nurse about seeing Qin Ya. The nurse then asked Qin Ya about it. As someone who had her face disfigured, Qin Ya’s emotions would likely be volatile. Therefore, it was imperative to seek her permission before seeing her.

If she agreed, they would arrange it accordingly.
