Stealing Your Heart

As if answering his own question, Su Zhan laughed awkwardly and said, “Don’t worry. I no longer long for you. If my presence here is choking you, then let me be the one to leave. You don’t have to go. Please stay.”

Taking off his napkin and putting down the knife and fork in his hands, he stood up and said once more, “Just sit down and eat. I’ll leave to make you feel at ease and eat in peace.”

Having said that, he turned to Xinyan and bid her farewell, “Xinyan, I’ll take my leave now.”

Xinyan could not say anything, so she could only watch him leave.

After Su Zhan left, she pulled Qin Ya to make her sit down once more.

Even after she obediently sat down, she had lost her appetite. Xinyan handed her a sheet of tissue and comforted, “Cry if you want to cry. Let it all out, dear. You will feel better after crying.”

Sensing they were not needed, Jinghao and Shao Yun left. Glancing at them, she had initially felt that the setting here was not appropriate, but she kept her opinion to herself.

As for the two men, there were reasons for them taking their leave as well. Jinghao had something to say to Shao Yun.

The latter had helped him greatly last time, but due to both of them being busy, neither of them had the luxury to sit down and talk their hearts out.

After this incident, Jinghao knew that Xinyan’s father was not a plain Joe. Otherwise, there would not have friends like Shao Yun.

Although he had not done much, the clues in his hands were valuable and rare. After all, he could not track and trace the incidents which happened long in the past.

“Is everything all right?” Shao Yun asked curiously.

When he was not putting on his mischievous smiley face, he looked scary – the type that would make any unfortunate children who set their eyes on him cry in fear.

However, when he was not so serious, and when he had his playful smile on, he instantly became very approachable.

Very rarely would he suppress his smile, for he always carried a jovial, gleeful look.

Jinghao revealed, “A task force has been set up to investigate this case. Since it has caused such a huge trouble, the matter must be tightly monitored and investigated.”
