Stealing Your Heart

“True. I don’t believe in such things, either,” Song Yaxin smiled.

“Mrs. Zong.” Aunt Yu approached the two. “Where did you keep ingredients for making soup? I can’t seem to find it.”

Lin Xinyan had not been using the kitchen for some time and she had never made any soup, either. However, noticing Aunt Yu’s glance, she came to a realization and answered, “Okay, let me help you.”

She rose and said to Song Yaxin, “Please excuse me. I need to help her find the ingredients.”

Song Yaxin nodded but could not help to look down on Lin Xinyan in her mind. That woman is just a maid. Is it really necessary to treat her like your family? Are you trying to show how kind you are?

Lin Xinyan headed toward the kitchen and did not notice Song Yaxin’s scornful looks. However, Aunt Yu spotted it. She lowered her head and followed behind Lin Xinyan.

Lin Xinyan only asked Aunt Yu after they were in the kitchen, “What’s the matter, Aunt Yu?”

Aunt Yu did not reply and grabbed a chair from outside the kitchen. Lin Xinyan was perplexed by her move.

“Aunt Yu…”

“Mrs. Zong.” Aunt Yu helped Lin Xinyan to the chair. Smiling, Lin Xinyan asked, “Aunt Yu, what’s the matter?”

Aunt Yu stole a glance outside and whispered, “That Ms. Song outside, who is she?”

“She’s Peichuan’s girlfriend,” Lin Xinyan replied.

Aunt Yu’s eyes widened in disbelief. “What? Peichuan’s girlfriend?”

She gasped out of shock. Realizing that she was being quite loud, Aunt Yu quickly covered her mouth.

Lin Xinyan could not comprehend her surprise. “Yes, what’s the matter? Why do you look so surprised?”

Aunt Yu crossed her arms. “How is she a good match for Peichuan?”

Lin Xinyan chuckled. “Why is she not a good match for him?”

tried to explain herself, “Peichuan is such a gentleman. One look at this woman and I just know that she’s a schemer. Besides, you’re pregnant and need to take care of Ruixi at the same time.
