Stealing Your Heart

Qin Ya decided to stay silent. She’s definitely calling to ask if we’re going to have a kid soon…

She lowered her head sadly. Why is it so difficult to have a child?

She had thought that surrogacy was the way to go, only to be disappointed by the results.

Su Zhan put his phone away. “It’s just a scam call.”

Qin Ya pretended to not have seen the number on his screen. “These telemarketers are getting more and more annoying, aren’t they?”

“That’s right,” Su Zhan said. “It’s still early. Anything you want to do before going home?”

Qin Ya shook her head.

“I’ve heard of this new movie that’s got some pretty good reviews. Shall we go and take a look?” he asked.

“Sure,” Qin Ya replied.

She did not have any plans in mind anyway.

Su Zhan took out his phone again to check the time slots for the movie, sighing when he realized that the earliest one was still two hours away.

“Let’s go and eat something first,” he said.

“Alright,” Qin Ya replied. “I’ll follow you.”

They exited the law firm soon after. Su Zhan had just turned on the engines on his car when his phone started ringing again. The number displayed on the screen was that of his grandmother’s house.

Without hesitating, he rejected the call. However, before he could turn his phone off, Qin Ya stopped him. “Send me home. You should go and visit Grandma.”
