Stealing Your Heart Chapter 197
Just as Lin Xinyan wanted to exin the situation, she was interrupted by the shop assistant.
“Qingqing, don’t listen to her. She brought all these people and wrecked up our store. Hurry up and get
someone to arrest them all.”
Lin Xinyan frowned.
Zong Jinghao handed his daughter over to Lin Xinyan. “Wait for me in the car.”
He would solve the problem here. Although he wanted to train his son’s courage, he did not want his
daughter to be involved in this. Daughters were girls, so they were different from sons.
Lin Xinyan took her daughter over, and when she was about to leave, she was stopped by the shop
assistant’s cousin, Yao Qingqing, who said, “It happened because of you. If you leave, how can this
matter be sorted out clearly?”
Zong Jinghao looked up, with a cold look on his face. “Sort it out with me.”
Yao Qingqing felt scared the moment she met Zong Jinghao’s eyes. He had an even more imposing
presence than Bai Yinning, as his indifferent and sharp facial features were gorgeous yet
expressionless, with a chill exuded from within him that made people shy away.
She clenched her fists tightly. “We are upright in our business dealings. Aren’t you too much?”
Zong Jinghao’s lips were half raised, and he sneered sinisterly.
The shop assistant hid behind Yao Qingqing. “They must be gangster. Hurry up and call Chairman Bai
toe over.”
At this time, Shen Peichuan walked out of the store, and whispered in Zong Jinghao’s ear.
Yao Qingqing couldn’t hear what they were saying, but the store was wrecked, and she and her cousin
—two weak women—would definitely not be able to out win them.
After thinking about it for a while, she still chose to call Bai Yinning, hoping that he would help her to
solve this matter.
Obviously, they bully us just because they outnumber us.
Meanwhile, Bai Yinning was going to the hotel to pick up Lin Xinyan to meet the master who could
make tea silk, but he received a call from Yao Qingqing.
“What is it?” he asked lukewarmly.
“My shop has been wrecked up by some people. Can youe over?” Yao Qingqing lowered her
head. She and Bai Yinning grew up in an orphanage, so they had known each other since childhood.
Later they were adopted by different families. It was not until a year ago that she and Bai Yinning met
again.
It was Bai Yinning who gave her such a good storefront in this mall.
Bai Yinning nced at the time and agreed toe over as he still had time.
It was just that he didn’t expect to meet Lin Xinyan and Zong Jinghao aftering over.
The shop assistant who had been hiding behind Yao Qingqing raised her head when she saw Bai
Yinning who wasing over. “Look, I told you that Chairman Bai is very close with my cousin. How
dare you make trouble here?”
Yao Qingqing frowned and looked at her cousin. Although she was friends with Bai Yinning, she did not
want to use this friendship to cause trouble for Bai Yinning.
So when she heard her cousin’s words, she couldn’t help but frown.
Being smart as he was, Bai Yinning could roughly guess what happened when he saw the scene.
When he passed by Lin Xinyan, he looked at her and asked, looking concerned, “Are you okay?”
Lin Xinyan walked to stand beside Zong Jinghao and shook her head. “I’m okay.”
She didn’t understand Bai Yinning very much.
Besides, for the sake of her two children, she didn’t want outsiders to see that her rtionship with
Zong Jinghao was not like a normal couple.
Bai Yinning’s gaze wavered after noticing her movement, but he soon calmed down after a short while.
Her actions caused Zong Jinghao, who had always been sullen, to raise his eyebrows slightly, and
even the corners of his lips were raised upwards.
“You’vee just at the right moment. I was just about to look for an exnation from you, Chairman
Bai.” Zong Jinghao put his arm around Lin Xinyan’s shoulders and walked into the messy store. Shen
Peichuan asked his men to clean the sofa, whereas Zong Jinghao asked Lin Xinyan to sit down.
She had an injury on her foot and standing for a long time would slow down her recovery.
The shop assistant waspletely dumbfounded. What’s going on?
Why is this person not even afraid of Chairman Bai? Why does he even have a stronger presence than
Chairman Bai?
Bai Yinning is the most powerful person in Baicheng. Who is this man?
Also, who is this woman?
Why is Chairman Bai even so caring for her?
She grabbed Yao Qingqing’s arm nervously, causing Yao Qingqing to feel pain from her unconscious
overexertion of force. Yao Qingqing frowned, and looked at her cousin. “They caused the trouble, why
are you so afraid?”
The shop assistant was very flustered. She had been taking advantage of the rtionship between Yao
Qingqing and Bai Yinning to do as she liked in the mall, and no one dared to refute her every time.
This time, she felt that she had met a tough nut to crack.
Usually, she was used to bullying others. Therefore, when she saw that this man was someone Bai
Yinning had to treat with respect, she was flustered.
“Q-Qingqing, who is this man?”
“No idea.” Yao Qingqing had never seen him either.
But it seemed that he was somebody.
The shop assistant didn’t know what to expect, as he was someone even Yao Qingqing didn’t know.
Gao Yuan pushed Bai Yinning into the store. The ground was in a mess, and there was almost no room
to walk. After ncing around the store casually, Bai Yinning turned his gaze to Zong Jinghao, and
asked with a smile, “Is it because the service was too poor?”
With his lips slightly raised, Zong Jinghao replied in a neutral tone, “Of course, no one dares to make
trouble at your territory, Chairman Bai, but…” He cast a look at Shen Peichuan. “Let’s talk about it after
you take a look at this, Chairman Bai.”
Understanding his meaning, Shen Peichuan ced theptop that was taken from the car on the desk
at the counter, plugged in a USB drive, and said while opening the USB drive, “This video footage was
taken from the CCTV in the store. We’ll know what happened after we see this.”
The shop assistant waspletely dumbfounded. How could I forget that CCTV has been installed in
the store?
The content…
No, I can’t let Yao Qingqing see the things I did in the store, otherwise, everything wille to light.
She rushed up intending to destroy theputer and take away the USB drive. Shen Peichuan knew
she would be frustrated, so he had asked his men to be prepared for that.
She was stopped as soon as she rushed up to them.
Soon, the footage was yed on the screen.
Earlier when Shen Peichuan whispered in Zong Jinghao’s ear, he was telling him that he had obtained
the CCTV footage of the store and even found some other things.
The footage didn’t start from the moment Lin Xinyan entered the store, but it was how the shop
assistant took advantage of Yao Qingqing’s absence and put the money she got from the customers
who bought the clothes into her own pocket. She often threatened the customers who came to the
store by saying that they must buy once they had tried the clothes on. Otherwise, she would threaten
them using Bai Yinning’s name.
Everyone in Baicheng knew Bai Yinning.
So, many people didn’t dare to offend him, and just paid to settle the issue.
Bai Yinning’s face took on a ghastly expression.
This was the ghastliest expression Lin Xinyan had ever seen on his face since she knew him.
Yao Qingqing’s face went pale, looking even more ghastly than Bai Yinning’s.
Seeing that her misdeeds were exposed, the shop assistant wanted to escape, but was stopped by
Shen Peichuan. “Why are you leaving in such a hurry?”
“These are all forged by you to frame me!” The shop assistant firmly refused to admit it.
Shen Peichuan didn’t bother to care about what she said.
Shen Peichuan only picked and yed the important parts, but it also took half an hour before the
footage of Lin Xinyan entering the store was yed.
The shop assistant looked down on her at first, thinking that Lin Xinyan was someone who could not
afford clothes. Later, she grabbed Lin Xinyan by the arm to stop her from leaving and insisted that she
had to buy it. She even used Bai Yinning’s name to scare her and called her escort…

It was just that Lin Xinyan didn’t buy it and wanted to pay to get this matter over with after hearing Bai
Yinning’s name.
Then the bodyguard rushed in.
Obviously, the shop assistant had a bad attitude and talked wildly.
“Qingqing…” At this point, the shop assistant still tried to quibble. “Qingqing, this is all made up by them
to frame me. Don’t you believe them…”
Smack
Yao Qingqing rushed forward and gave her a p in the face. She was shivering with anger. “The
evidence is conclusive. Do you still want to deny it?!”
The shop assistant covered her face, her eyes widened in surprise, as if she didn’t expect that she
would rush up to p her.
Half of her face was numb.
“Q-Qingqing, I was really framed.” Now, she could only deny it until the end.
Otherwise, she would be doomed.
Yao Qingqing gritted her teeth. At this point, does she still refuse to repent and admit her mistake?
“If you insist on digging your own grave, no one can save you.” Yao Qingqing was so anxious that she
calmed down instead. The person her cousin ‘ckmailed’ today was not somemon folk. She was
afraid the man would not let her off even if she didn’t pursue the matter.
“I’m sorry.” Yao Qingqing walked up to Bai Yinning and bowed her head to apologize. “I really didn’t
know that she used your reputation to ckmail the customers just because I know you…”
Bai Yinning raised his hand, not wanting to listen to her exnation.
He still smiled and looked at Zong Jinghao. “What do you want to do?”
