Stealing Your Heart Chapter 238
Lin Xichen quickened his steps intentionally so that Lin Xinyan would be able to match Zong Jinghao’s
pace. “Ruixi, let me hold your hand, alright?” Lin Xichen suggested while reaching out to the little girl’s
hand.
Shaking her head, Lin Ruixi protested, “I want daddy to hold my hand!”
Lin Xichen went speechless.
Why did she not get my hint at all?
Letting out a sigh, Lin Xichen did not continue to insist. He decided to wait for a better time to
matchmake them.
The mastern was that Lin Xichen could hold Lin Ruixi’s hand and Zong Jinghao then could hold Lin
Xinyan’s! What a pity that Lin Ruixi did not cooperate.
Lin Xichen’s n failed.
A number of cars were at the entrance of the vige. As the road was bumpy, it was not convenient for
Bai Yinning to walk out of the vige since he was wheelchair-bound. Hence, Bai Yinning left earlier
than everyone else.
“It’s been a while since Ist met you, Ms. Lin,” Bai Yinning smiled as he peered at the woman who
approached.
Lin Xinyan greeted, “Thank you so much for your referral previously, Mr. Bai.”
Lin Xinyan did not continue the conversation. The way Bai Yinning spoke made it seem that they were
close but they were never so close to begin with.
Bai Yinning could tell that Lin Xinyan was distancing herself. In response, he let out aughter. Turning
towards Zong Jinghao, whose face darkened by the second, Bai Yinning did not hold in his chuckles.
“You used to call me Yinning, and now you address me as Mr. Bai. Is it because of him?” Bai Yinning
asked while pointing to Zong Jinghao.

If Bai Yinning wanted to take advantage of Zong Jinghao in the business world, it would be close to
impossible. However, Bai Yinning could create some trouble for him through Lin Xinyan.
Almost instantly, Lin Xinyan knew Bai Yinning’s intentions.
Although things were awkward between them, it was obvious that Lin Xinyan knew who to side. If she
responded to Bai Yinning’s request and addressed him by his name, it would definitely make Zong
Jinghao feel upset. She did not want him to feel that way.
“I will definitely answer to your requests since you saved me before. I won’t forget that I still owe you a
favor. However, Mr. Bai, I am now married. I don’t want to create any misunderstandings. I hope that
you can understand and please don’t make things difficult for me.” Lin Xinyan replied.
Upon hearing her words, Zong Jinghao’s face brightened almost immediately while Bai Yinning went
speechless.
Bai Yinning wanted to make things hard for Zong Jinghao but now it seemed that he had shot himself
in the foot.
Although Bai Yinning was unwilling to let Zong Jinghao off so easily, if Bai Yinning rejected Lin Xinyan’s
suggestion, it would be clear that Bai Yinning was finding trouble for the both of them.
“Of course, Ms. Lin. I understand,” Bai Yinning reassured.
Lin Xinyan did not want to make things too awkward since Bai Yinning had saved her and even taken
good care of her previously. “If I have the chance, let me treat you to a meal. Thank you so much for
bringing me here…” Lin Xinyan offered.
“No problem, thank you in advance for the treat,” Bai Yinning beamed a little.
As Lin Xinyan finished her sentence, Zong Jinghao’s expression darkened instantaneously. This
realization made Bai Yinning crack a grin. However, Lin Xinyan was not aware of Zong Jinghao’s
displeasure.
Lin Xinyan was still dwelling on the incident. Many thoughts rushed through her mind.
Did I do anything wrong? Why can’t he just tell me about it? Why is he being so cold out of the blue?
Maybe…he doesn’t like me anymore?
Forcing herself to stop overthinking, Lin Xinyan grabbed Lin Xichen’s hand and said, “Let’s go.”
Lin Xichen could feel the dejection in Lin Xinyan’s voice.
Obediently, Lin Xichen followed Lin Xinyan. However, he did not get into the vehicle but pointed to the
caravan behind it and eximed, “Mommy, I want to sit in that car. It’s morefortable and really
spacious. Ruixi and I usually go with that car.”
“Yes! Mommy, do you want to sit with us? It’s been a while since you sat with us. I miss you so much,”
Lin Ruixi ran towards Lin Xinyan and pouted.
Lin Xinyan could see the expectations in the little girl’s eyes.
In Lin Xichen’s mind, he gave his sister a thumbs up. For once, she was being useful.
Knowing how clingy Lin Ruixi was towards Zong Jinghao, Lin Xinyan knew that Zong Jinghao would
follow them to that caravan. However, Lin Xinyan did not want to face him at the moment.
“It’s going to be really squeezy…” Lin Xinyan tried to reject.
“No mommy! It’s really big! There’s a bed, sofa and television. Mommy, you can even take a nap in
there! It’sfy there!” Lin Ruixi persuaded.
Hearing their conversation, gloom enveloped Zong Jinghao. If only there was no one with them, Zong
Jinghao would definitely ask why was she trying so hard to avoid him!
Bottling his discontent, Zong Jinghao wrapped his arms around Lin Xinyan’s waist and muttered, “If you
don’t want to sit with Ruixi and Xichen, where would you like to sit?” Ignoring her resistance, Zong
Jinghao pulled them towards the vehicle.
Lin Xinyan was struggling to avoid his touch and refuted, “It’s not that I don’t want to sit with my
children. I just don’t want to bother you!”
“How are you bothering me? “ Zong Jinghao uttered beside her ears, ensuring that only she could hear
him.
Lin Xinyan did not reply. Zong Jinghao was the one who started this entire ordeal! After he himself
started to distance away from her, why was he trying to imply that Lin Xinyan was the one who was
looking for trouble?
“Stay away from Bai Yinning. We have returned that favor of saving you. Why must you treat him a
meal? Look at how smug he was!” Zong Jinghao grunted under his breath.
Zong Jinghao didn’t know much he wanted to rip off that smile etched on Bai Yinning’s face.
“He took good care of me, why can’t I treat him to a meal?” Lin Xinyan rebutted. Using her elbow, she
jabbed Zong Jinghao’s arm away, Without saying more, Lin Xinyan carried Lin Ruixi and held onto Lin
Xichen’s arm and they entered the vehicle.
Inevitably, Zong Jinghao’s heart stung a little.
This woman!
Pft!
Su Zhan could not hold onto hisughter any longer.
This was the first time Su Zhan witnessed that somebody could argue and even jab Zong Jinghao,
leaving him here, helpless!
Su Zhan really wanted to ask Zong Jinghao if it hurt.
Ha, ha, ha!
Furrowing his brows, Zong Jinghao red at Su Zhan and hissed, “Are you not afraid that you might
bite your tongue?”
Zong Jinghao then entered the car.
Upon hearing his words, Su Zhan froze a little.
I…I didn’t even do anything. Why can’t I even smile now? And… it’s not so easy to bite my own
tongue…
“You are dumb,” Qin Yamented as she rolled her eyes. Ignoring Su Zhan, Qin Yan went up to
Shen Peichuan and asked, “Mr. Shen, can I hitch a ride from you?”
“My pleasure, “ Shen Peichuan answered while he stole a nce at Su Zhan.
“Shen Peichuan! Are you still my friend?” Su Zhan stormed as he held onto Shen Peichuan’s cor.
Shen Peichuan threw his palms out and smirked, “She was the one who asked. I can’t possibly reject a
lady, am I right?”
“Get lost!” Su Zhan bellowed. He released his grip as Shen Peichuan took a step back.
Actually, Shen Peichuan did not want to let Qin Ya hitch a ride from him. All Shen Peichuan wanted to
do was to joke around with Su Zhan.
Regardless of whether or not would they end up together, Shen Peichuan could tell that Su Zhan was
in love with Qin Ya. Unlike his previous rtionships, Su Zhan was serious in this one.
“I’ll have to give someone else a ride. Su Zhan will give you a ride instead. As you can tell, if I let you
ride with me, he will murder me,” Shen Peichuan sounded helpless.
As he spoke, Shen Peichuan made a gesture of cutting his own neck with his finger, leaving Qin Ya
speechless.
There are so many cars here, I don’t believe that I must hitch a ride from Su Zhan!
However, she was really rejected by everyone else!
“Ms. Qin. Please don’t put us in a difficult position. We are all boors, it’s not that suitable for you to
squeeze with all the guys. How about you go with Mr. Su? He can give you a ride.”
Qin Ya red at Su Zhan and ignored the triumph etched across his face. She strode swiftly towards
the caravan car. Before she could open the door, she was interrupted by Su Zhan’s voice. “The family
of four was separated for so long. It’s not very nice of you to interrupt them, am I right?” Su Zhan
spoke.
Qin Ya froze in ce. On second thought, it was indeed not suitable for her to barge in like that,
especially when Zong Jinghao and Lin Xinyan seemed to have some misunderstandings.
“How about you get in my car?” Without her approval, Su Zhan held onto her shoulders and urged her
towards his car.
“Su Zhan!” Qin Ya threatened but to no avail. Why is this guy so annoying!
Ignoring her opposition, Qin Ya was finally stuffed into his car. As Qin Ya tried to get out of his car, Su
Zhan leaned in and whispered, “Don’t force me to do anything offensive, especially with so many
people looking.”
