Stealing Your Heart Chapter 630
Three luxury cars stopped by the roadside, and half a dozen men alighted from them.
“Who are they?” Zhou Chunchun, who was standing behind Bai Yinning, asked.
Bai Yinning shook his head. He, too, had no idea who those men were.
They then saw the group of men take out multiple briefcases and boxes from the car. One of the
briefcases had a tough metallic casing with number locks.
One by one, they carried the briefcases and boxes toward the vi.
“Let’s follow them,” Zhou Chunchun suggested.
Bai Yinning nodded. He was also curious to know what the group of men was up to. The two of them
followed the group from behind into the main house of the vi. The leader of the group rang the
doorbell.
Aunt Yu was the one who came to answer the door instead of Lin Xinyan. Lin Xinyan was already fast
asleep upstairs because she had not been able to rest well – though she could guess what Zong
Jinghao was doing for the past few days based on the news, she was still worried about him and had
been waiting for his return since the night before.
Zong Qifeng and Zong Yanchen were busy ying chess in the living room, while Qin Ya and Cheng
Yuwen were ying poker with Zong Yanxi.
The family had a habit of having fruits half an hour after lunch, so Aunt Wang was washing fruits in the
kitchen.
Everyone in the living room looked up when the doorbell rang. They were anticipating the arrival of
Zong Jinghao, who had not returned home in days.
Aunt Yu was thinking the same as she went to get the door. However, she was met by a group of men
holding briefcases and boxes.
“Who are you?” Aunt Yu asked warily.
“We’re workers from the insurancepany.” The leader of the group donned a ck suit and wore
white gloves. With a rather professional-looking stature and aura around him, he said, “We have been
appointed by Mr. Zong to deliver some parcels over.”
“Insurancepany?” Aunt Yu was a little confused.
“We work for apany called LEO,” said the other four men from the group.
Upon hearing that, Qin Ya immediately figured out what the group of men were there for. Lin Xinyan
had talked about having a wedding with Zong Jinghao, and those men were probably there to deliver
some of the items needed.
Wow. Did Zong Jinghao buy a tailor-made bridal gown from LEO for Lin Xinyan?
She dropped the poker cards in her hands and turned to Zong Yanxi. “Go call Mommy upstairs, okay?”
Zong Yanxi was an obedient girl. She quickly made her way to the staircase.
“Be careful!” Qin Ya added, worried that she would fall.
Along with the group of eight men, Bai Yinning and Zhou Chunchun entered the vi. Fortunately, the
living room was sufficiently spacious to fit all of them in.
“When did youe over?” Bai Yinning asked upon seeing Cheng Yuwen.
“Of course I had toe. It’s Jinghao’s wedding, after all,” she replied.
Bai Yinning raised his eyebrows. He could finally wrap his head around what was going on and why
those people hade to the vi.
“And why did youe?” Cheng Yuwen asked in return.
Bai Yinning was still immersed in his thoughts. Zhou Chunchun tapped on his hand “What?” He looked
up, snapping back to reality.
Cheng Yuwen squinted her eyes as she stared at Bai Yinning. “I said, why did youe?”
“I’m just tagging along with Chunchun. We are going back to Baicheng soon, so she’sing to say
goodbye to Ya- Ms. Lin,” Bai Yinning replied.
He was about to call her Yan but quickly corrected himself.
Zong Yanchen and Zong Qifeng, who were seated in the other corner of the room, decided to pause
their chess game to check the boxes that had been brought in.
Meanwhile, Lin Xinyan and Zong Yanxi finally came downstairs, only to see a living room full of people.
Zong Yanxi was really surprised to see that Zhou Chunchun had alsoe to the vi. “Hi, Aunt
Chun,” she greeted her excitedly.
Noticing Bai Yinning and Zhou Chunchun, Lin Xinyan called out to them, “Hey, you guys came too.”
Bai Yinning looked toward the staircase. Lin Xinyan was walking down step by step, holding onto the
railing cautiously. The bulge on her belly was apparent from the dress she wore.
Though she looked a little disoriented, as of a person who just woke up, Bai Yinning could tell that the
woman was genuinely happy as her face was filled with warmth and love.
Perhaps Zhou Chunchun is right. Watching someone you love live a happy life really can make you feel
happy too.
“Chunchun and I came over to bid farewell. We initially nned on returning to Baicheng, but then we
heard about your wedding, so we’ll probably postpone it. We will be receiving an invitation letter, won’t
we?” Bai Yinning joked.
“Yes, yes. You’re my friend, after all.” Lin Xinyan smiled as she walked over and asked, “What are all
these?”
“Gifts for you, of course,” said Qin Ya.
“For me?” Lin Xinyan remarked in disbelief.
“Hi, are you Lin Xinyan?” The man in the group who held onto the briefcase with number locks asked,
walking towards her.
Lin Xinyan nodded. “Yes.”
“Alright, open them up!” The group of people lined up in a row and opened all the briefcases and
boxes. They then arranged them before Lin Xinyan.
The contents of the boxes shocked everyone.
Only Zong Qifeng remained rtively calm.
Within the briefcase safeguarded by number locks, a glistening tiara sat on a velvet cushion.
Qin Ya pointed at it shakily. “Are, are those diamonds on there?”
How luxurious!
“Of course, of course. I bought that tiara from an auction in Country Y more than twenty years ago,”
Zong Qifeng said.
It was a tiara that had originally been created in celebration of the royal wedding between a twenty-
one-year-old Farah and the crown prince, Charles Pfea back in 1959. Having taken a grand total of
six months toplete, the tiara weighed 1600 grams, with 1469 diamonds and 36 gems on it. The
most prominent jewel on the tiara was carved out from a 150-carat raw diamond.
That said tiara was sold to an auction house in Country Y in 1983. It was said to have been auctioned
off to an anonymous buyer for two million in the 90s. When word of that got around, the public flew into
a frenzy – everyone wanted to know who had bought it.

However, the information on the mysterious buyer was rather limited – all that people knew was that
the buyer was from China. Some even guessed that the buyer was some wealthy Chinese woman.
Truth was that Zong Qifeng had bought the tiara, intending to gift it to Cheng Yuxiu. They were a
married couple but he had never expressed his love for her before.
That was the greatest regret in his life.
For many years, he kept the tiara safe and secure in an overseas insurancepany. It was only upon
hearing about Zong Jinghao and Lin Xinyan’s wedding that he arranged for the tiara to be sent back.
As for the ne and earrings that went as a set with the tiara, Zong Jinghao made use of his
connections to find and purchase them. At first, the owner was unwilling to sell them, but Zong Jinghao
still managed to obtain them in the end.
Qin Ya could not help but purse her lips.
“I like them too.” Zong Yanxi’s eyes gleamed with fascination.
Zong Qifeng patted her head. “Your mother shall pass it down to you when you grow up. You’ll be able
to wear it for your wedding too.”
“Yay! I can’t wait!” Zong Yanxi eximed.
The tiara looked truly marvelous.
The ne and earrings were kept in the other briefcases, while the bridal gown and dresses were
kept in the boxes from the LEO staff.
Knowing that LEO was where Lin Xinyan fulfilled her potential and grew as a person, Zong Jinghao
made a special request for Mrs. William to design her bridal gown.
Of course, Mrs. William was more than willing to do the job.
During the exhibition, Zong Jinghao was swept away by the traditional Chinese bridal gowns, but he felt
that white was a more fitting color for someone pure and elegant like Lin Xinyan. The red elements of
the Chinese bridal gowns were also too overpowering for her quiet personality.
There were a total of four sets of clothes – Zong Jinghao’s suit, Lin Xinyan’s bridal gown, and two other
dresses for the bride.
Furthermore, the gowns were designed to be ttering on Lin Xinyan’s pregnant body.
“For the past two weeks, thirty of our dressmakers have been pouring their hearts and souls into
making these dresses,” one of the LEO employees told Lin Xinyan.
Since he knew about her, his tone was very endearing.
“Mrs. William also attached a letter for you.”
