Stealing Your Heart

Lin Xinyan turned to gape at him speedily and asked, “Was it that obvious?”

“No, your intention was perfectly disguised. It’s just that I know you too well.” Zong Jinghao grinned from ear to ear and continued, “Perhaps we’re connected spiritually?”

Lin Xinyan was rendered speechless.

A few moments later, she regained her composure and commented, “I can tell that Su Zhan still has feelings for Qin Ya.”

“His heart has remained loyal to her since the beginning. He did a mistake in the past, that’s all.” Zong Jinghao spoke up for his buddy and carried on, “Please talk to Qin Ya.”

“I can’t see through her.” Lin Xinyan answered plainly. Honestly speaking, I’ve wished that someone could take care of Qin Ya for a lifetime, and Su Zhan just happened to be the ideal candidate. Even though he made some mistakes previously, he has learned his lesson already. However, she was too frigid towards him, and it doesn’t seem like she’s gonna give him any chance. Also, it’s not like I lied about wanting to celebrate Shen Peichuan’s promotion. He performed well enough to be qualified for this position. Thus, I took this chance to invite them to the villa. Ahem… To create an opportunity for Su Zhan and Qin Ya.

“Everyone has their own path. You don’t have to worry too much.” Zong Jinghao didn’t want her to be too absorbed into the lives of others.

Lin Xinyan understood his intention, “I won’t meddle too much. I’ll just do whatever little things I can to create a chance for them. If they managed to rekindle their relationship, that’s for the best. Or else, we can only say that they’re not meant to be together. I won’t say anything to Qin Ya. If she still has feelings for him, she’ll see the good in him somehow. Otherwise, there’s nothing we can do about it.”

“I’m glad you understand.” Zong Jinghao agreed with her totally.

He didn’t like to get involved in other people’s relationships, so he hoped that Lin Xinyan wouldn’t interfere too much either, as they were all adults with their own thoughts. It was fine if what she did was just a little push, but shoving her ideas down their throats was unacceptable for him.

The car arrived in the underground parking lot of the office as they talked. After Zong Jinghao parked the car, he got out of the vehicle and walked towards Lin Xinyan’s door. Meanwhile, she had already exited the car by herself. So he took her hand as they headed toward the elevator.

Lin Xinyan struggled, “Won’t it be bad for us?”

After all, there was a rumor about them that went viral online before, and there was a heated discussion that she was some unpopular celebrity. As much as she couldn’t care less, being criticized and faced with public backlash wasn’t exactly a pleasant feeling.
