Stealing Your Heart

Song Yaxin parked the car by the roadside upon reaching the entrance of the villa. She did not get out of the car right away. Winding down the window, she glanced in the direction of the villa. She noticed that Su Zhan was not in B City and Zong Jinghao was not as nervous as before.

Has he given up, or is there more to this?

Her grip on the steering wheel tightened as she contemplated the endless possibilities.

In the end, she still could not figure out the core of the problem. She decided to look for Lin Xinyan and Zong Jinghao instead. After turning off the engine, she threw the car keys into her bag, got off, and headed toward the villa.

She rang the doorbell.

Aunt Yu answered the door not long after. “Who are you looking for?” she asked.

“I’m looking for Mr. Zong and his wife. Are they around?” Song Yaxin asked.

“Please wait here. I’ll go notify them.” Aunt Yu did not let her in since she had never seen Song Yaxin before. Besides, Zong Jinghao had clearly instructed her not to let strangers into the house.

Zong Yanxi had not fully recovered from the traumatic incident, and Zong Jinghao was afraid that her emotions might be affected by the presence of strangers in the house.

“Sure, could you please hurry up? It’s quite hot outside,” Song Yaxin said.

Aunt Yu nodded. Before closing the door, she asked, “How do I address you, Miss?”

“My last name is Song. I’m Song Yaxin.”

“Okay.” Aunt Yu closed the door and headed upstairs.

Only Lin Xinyan and Zong Yanxi were home. Zong Qifeng and Cheng Yuwen had brought Zong Yanchen out, while Zong Jinghao was away to tend to Aunt Wang’s matters as she had gotten hurt while on the job.

Inside the bedroom, Zong Yanxi did not say anything when she burrowed herself in Lin Xinyan’s embrace. She clutched at Lin Xinyan’s collar as if she were afraid that Lin Xinyan might disappear.

She would clutch onto Lin Xinyan after she had fallen asleep; even then, she would wake up from her sleep multiple times at night.
