Stealing Your Heart

“We’re going to B City. There’s been an emergency at the company.” Zong Jinghao didn’t tell him about Qin Ya’s incident. He was afraid that Su Zhan would get emotionally unstable when he found out. It would be too dangerous as the man was still driving.

Su Zhan clicked his tongue and replied, “Are things really that urgent at the company? Isn’t Guan Jing overlooking things there? Is the company going to go bankrupt just because you didn’t go today?”

Soon, a knowing smile appeared on his face, and he asked, “Is it because you’re worried that Xinyan would leave again? Is that why you have to bring her home immediately?”

Zong Jinghao glared at him and said coldly, “Stop at the next rest stop. Let me drive.”

“I’m not tired yet.” He had driven the whole way there, yet he didn’t feel too tired from it.

“You talk too much. I’m afraid it’s going to be dangerous.”

Zong Jinghao lowered his head to send a text message to Shen Peichuan. He had sent the latter to C City to investigate Gu Bei. He was now wondering if the man had gotten any leads.

After he sent the text, he looked at the backseat and saw the kids sleeping peacefully. Lin Xinyan was looking out the window, but the expression on her face wasn’t a good one. She’s probably worried about Qin Ya.

He didn’t dare talk about the matter in front of Su Zhan, so he consoled her tactfully, “I’ll handle it. Just try not to think too much and sleep now.”

How can I not worry? Qin Ya’s been through too much previously. She just came back but is immediately met with another incident like this. How can I calm down or stop worrying about her?

However, she didn’t want to cause Zong Jinghao any more trouble, so she mumbled an agreement before closing her eyes and fake sleeping.

Zong Jinghao sighed and looked back to the front. He knew she was only faking, but there wasn’t anything else he could say or do to lessen her worries.

Looking down at his phone, he saw that there was still no response from Shen Peichuan. He then leaned back on his seat and massaged his temples.

“Are you hiding something from me?” Su Zhan asked. Why do I feel like Zong Jinghao is in such a rush to get back because something’s happened?
