Stealing Your Heart

“Mrs. Zong.” Guan Jing opened the car door for Lin Xinyan.

Lin Xinyan was startled by the man’s appearance. “What are you doing here?”

“Mr. Zong ordered me to come,” Guan Jing answered.

Zong Jinghao had instructed Guan Jing to come to the hospital and set up an appointment with a medical specialist for Zhuang Zijin. Hence, there was no need for her to queue.

“Come with me. I’ve already made an appointment for you,” Guan Jing said and led the way.

Lin Xinyan held on to Zhuang Zijin and followed him into the hospital. Instead of queueing downstairs, they headed up to the outpatient hall. At that moment, several people were seated at the lounge. Guan Jing went straight into the doctor’s room and had a few words with the doctor before letting Zhuang Zijin into the room.

Zhuang Zijin did not have much time to spare when she was out of prison, which was why her medical checkup had to be done quickly.

Guan Jing had spoken to the Dean of the hospital and made necessary arrangements earlier on. Therefore, Zhuang Zijin was attended to immediately after a word with the doctor.

Zhuang Zijin was very cooperative. However, she requested to be alone with the doctor in the consultation room.

She wouldn’t even allow Lin Xinyan to be in there with her.

“Mom, why can’t I be in there with you?” Lin Xinyan was puzzled and asked, “Are you hiding something from me?”

“What’s there for me to hide from you?” Zhuang Zijin looked at her daughter nonchalantly. “Don’t you know that others do not know of my identity? I only ask to have a one-on-one consultation with the doctor about my condition. Haven’t I come to the hospital with you? What more can I hide?”

“That’s not what I meant,” Lin Xinyan tried to explain.

“Well then, you can wait outside,” Zhuang Zijin said plainly, showing no signs of anger. But, she had a rather uncomfortable look on her face.

Lin Xinyan did not argue with her any further and walked out of the room.

As of now, Zhuang Zijin was laden with guilt. Lin Xinyan had thought she was only willing to come out because she was under an emotional burden.

When the door shut, Zhuang Zijin sat on a chair and faced the doctor. “I’m sorry for taking up your time.”

The doctor replied, “That’s what I’m here for.”

“I know my body well.” Zhuang Zijin was willing to come to the hospital because she wanted Lin Xinyan to be at ease. ”I have an older brother who died of lung cancer.”

The doctor made a note of Zhuang Zijin’s family medical history. “What about your parents?”
