Stealing Your Heart

The situation now was different from that in the past. Lin Xinyan could only imagine how miserable Zong Jinghao felt.

She grabbed Shen Peichuan’s arm, and unknowingly, her nails pierced into his flesh as she leaned in his arms and choked with sobs.

Shen Peichuan ignored the pain in his arm and tried his best to comfort her, “Don’t be too sad. You are pregnant now, and you shouldn’t get too emotional.”

Lin Xinyan paid no heed to his words. She couldn’t control herself, all she could think of was how Cheng Yuxiu used her body to protect her from being crushed by the falling billboard and how blood trickled down her neck drip by drip as if it were Cheng Yuxiu’s life slowly dripping out of her…

Lin Xinyan covered her chest with her hands as she sobbed silently.

Shen Peichuan knew that he couldn’t persuade her and let her be.

After she cried for a long time, Shen Peichuan took her back to the ward to rest.

She was lying on the bed on her side, and she looked out the window blankly.

Shen Peichuan didn’t dare to leave, worried that she would be overly sad and affect the baby. After all, she had a miscarriage before.

“If it weren’t for saving me, maybe she wouldn’t have died…” Her voice was hoarse and wracked with sobs.

Shen Peichuan merely stood by her and remained silent.

She added, “If I have another chance, I will tell Jinghao about her identity right away. At least then she will have no regrets, and Jinghao will not lose the chance to acknowledge her as his mother in this lifetime.”

Cheng Yuxiu always said that she had no regrets, but no mother in the world would not want her child to call herself “Mom.”

“Don’t blame yourself too much. No one knows that such a thing will happen. Besides, you kept the truth from him for his own good too. Not to mention, this was a grudge from the past generation. It has nothing to do with you. What you have to do now is to take care of him so that he can arrange Cheng Yuxiu’s funeral with peace of mind, and let her rest in peace,” Shen Peichuan stood by the bed and comforted her in a gentle tone.
