Stealing Your Heart

Bai Yinning’s car had gone through modifications, so they knew whose car it was with one glance.

Subconsciously, Lin Xinyan peeked at Zong Jinghao. As expected, when he spotted Bai Yinning’s car, his expression turned gloomy.

She reached out to hold his hand. “We’ll go down the car together.”

Zong Jinghao turned to look at her. When their eyes met, she gave him a gentle smile. “I’ll make it clear to him.”

“Will he listen?” Zong Jinghao scoffed. “He’s f*cking clingy, just like a spat-out bubblegum on a wall.”

A laugh escaped Lin Xinyan. She found it cute to hear Zong Jinghao swear.

Tightening her grip on Zong Jinghao’s hand, she solemnly said, “Trust me.”

Zong Jinghao stared at her in silent agreement.

He alighted the car first, then walked toward her side to open the door for her. When Lin Xinyan came down from the car, she hooked her arm around his.

“They’re back,” Zhou Chunchun informed as she stood behind Bai Yinning.

Bai Yinning was staring at them. Although there was a barrage of emotions in him, he showed no signs of them on his face. With a small smile, he muttered, “Chunchun, push me there.”

Zhou Chunchun obediently wheeled him over.

“We’re here to apologize,” Bai Yinning hastily said when he reached them.

There were no hints of a smile on Lin Xinyan’s face, only fury. “You should apologize. You’ve troubled me greatly today, and you’ve embarrassed me horribly. I’m not happy about being accused as a third wheel.”

“I’m sorry…”

“If you really are, and if you really know that you’ve troubled me, you shouldn’t appear in my line of sight anymore.” Lin Xinyan’s words were simple. Although it sounded harsh, this was the best outcome for everyone.

After all, they were all married, and they had to take responsibility for their respective families.

Now that Bai Yinning was married, he should treat his wife well instead of longing for another woman.

Lin Xinyan did not like Bai Yinning like this.
