Stealing Your Heart Chapter 769


    “Are you angry?” Zong Jinghao asked.


    “No.” Lin Xinyan shook her head, assuring her husband that she wasn’t angry. However, deep down,


    she was indeed frustrated.


    Zhuang Zijin had brought them their breakfast, so Zong Jinghao lifted her out of the bed and brought


    her to the bathroom to carry out her morning routine.


    By the time she finished brushing her teeth and washing her face, he brought her back to the table and


    helped her to the chair. However, Lin Xinyan told him, “I’m not in the mood for a meal. Please bring me


    back to the bed.”


    As soon as Zong Jinghao ced her on the bed, Lin Xinyan tucked herself in and turned around with


    her back facing him. “You should finish the meal and get going. I’ll finish my portion once I’m awake.”


    Zhuang Zijin heard her daughter’s demanding words. Therefore, she urged her, “You must be kidding


    me, right? You have literally been sleeping all day and night. Come over and finish your meal


    immediately. Otherwise, it will get cold soon.”


    The woman wasn’t aware of the conflict between the duo. Hence, she approached her daughter in an


    attempt to persuade her.

    “You’re aware that you’re not feeding yourself alone, aren’t you? You have to finish your meal for the


    child’s sake. Hurry up and finish your meal at once.”


    Lin Xinyan remained silent, whereas Zong Jinghao stood right where he was, staring at her with a


    poker face.


    Zhuang Zijin took a peek at them both and noticed that they seemed to be in the middle of a fight.


    She had no idea who the one at fault was, but she told Zong Jinghao, “Are you guys fighting? I’m sure


    you’re aware of Yan’s condition, right? Why did you get into a fight with her?”


    Zong Jinghao ignored her and stared at Lin Xinyan in silence, so Zhuang Zijin was certain the two were


    in the middle of a fight.


    She was, after all, the one who had brought Lin Xinyan up ever since she was young. Naturally,


    Zhuang Zijin took Lin Xinyan’s side and reprimanded Zong Jinghao, “Are you seriously going to fight


    with Yan when she’s heavily pregnant? She’s pregnant with your child! How could you irritate her?”


    “You shouldn’t have picked on her when she’s about to give birth!” Zhuang Zijin was harsh with her


    words and showed no signs of stopping at all.


    Finally, Lin Xinyan couldn’t take it anymore because she was afraid Zhuang Zijin and Zong Jinghao


    would get into another conflict. She removed her nket and said, “No! We’re not fighting! I’ll head


    over and finish my meal immediately!”


    “Huh? If both of you aren’t fighting, why are you angry? Why do you refuse toplete your meal?”


    Zhuang Zijin probed further, confused.


    “What? Me? Angry? What brings you to such a conclusion?” Lin Xinyan rebutted.


    “Really? Should I get you a mirror so you could check on your current expression? It’s written all over


    your face.” Zhuang Zijin walked to the table and beckoned Lin Xinyan over. “Come over and finish your


    meal at once.”


    Zong Jinghao helped Lin Xinyan up and ced her on the chair. Thetter reached for the spoon and


    was about to savor the congee that had been served, but she soon noticed Zong Jinghao had yet to


    take his seat. Therefore, she turned around and asked, “Aren’t you going to join me?”


    The man remained silent. He felt lightheaded after the series of confrontations that had urred within


    the past thirty minutes.


    Usually, she would behave herself, but whenever she threw a tantrum, he would have to go to great


    lengths to persuade and pacify her.


    Aware she was the one at fault, Lin Xinyan reached over and held his hand. “I’m so sorry, okay? Let’s


    finish our meal together. You still have to return to work, don’t you?”


    “You know what? Someday, I might pass on due to a heart attack because of you.” Zong Jinghao finally


    took his seat after he expressed his frustration.


    Lin Xinyan was rendered speechless by his words. Immediately, she scooped a spoonful of congee


    and fed her husband to express her apology.


    “I’m so sorry, okay? I’ll definitely behave myself in the future! Please don’t be mad at me!”


    Oh, God! Since when has she learned to behave herself in such a timid manner?


    Zhuang Zijin decided to leave the duo alone. She walked out of their room with a smile and closed the


    door as she made her way out.


    Zong Jinghao found the woman hrious, but he put on a stern front and shrugged her hand away.


    “Good try, but that’s not going to work on me.”


    However, Lin Xinyan had no intention to give up, so she pressed the spoon against his lips, smudging


    his lips with the congee. “You’re allowed to be mad at me, but can you please finish your meal? You


    can’t head over to work starving, can you?”


    He was at a loss for better words to rebut her statement. In the end, he pinched her face and asked,


    “Are you giving me a hard time on purpose?”


    “O-Ouch!”


    She turned around and smartly avoided the man’s hand.


    Finally, Zong Jinghao finished the spoon of congee she had served him. The two soon patched things


    up.


    After they finished their meal, Zong Jinghao lifted her and brought her back to the bed,ying her on


    the bed prior to his departure.


    “Did you guys really have not a fight?” Zhuang Zijin, who had returned to collect the crockery, asked Lin


    Xinyan.


    “No,” Lin Xinyan replied without a second thought.


    “No? Are you sure?” It was evident Zhuang Zijin wasn’t convinced.


    Lin Xinyan repeated the entire incident to her mother. As soon as Zhuang Zijin figured out that Lin


    Xinyan wished to head out without others’panion, she reprimanded her, “You’re the one at fault!


    Usually, no one will nag you if you’re heading out, but do you have any idea of your current situation?


    How could you bring up such an absurd request? No wonder Jinghao was angry! If I were to be in his


    shoes, I would be mad at you as well!”


    Lin Xinyan was rendered speechless by her mother’s words because she seemed to have taken Zong


    Jinghao’s side instead of her own daughter’s side.


    She grumbled, “Mom, you’re my mother, aren’t you? Why are you taking his side as though he’s your


    son?”


    “I’m not taking sides. I’m merely stating the fact! You should reflect upon your action!” Zhuang Zijin cast


    a stern gaze at her daughter.


    Immediately, Lin Xinyany on the bed in an aggrieved manner. However, the moment she tried to lie


    down, she started feeling ufortable since she had just finished her meal.


    Therefore, she propped herself up and sat upright on the bed.


    All of a sudden, Zong Jinghao walked into their bedroom. Lin Xinyan looked at him and asked, “Aren’t


    you supposed to be on your way to thepany?”


    Zong Jinghao told her that he wouldn’t be heading over to thepany.


    “Where did you go just now then?”


    He told her, “I dropped by the clinic and talked to your attending physician.”


    “Huh? Is something wrong with me?” Lin Xinyan blinked anxiously in anticipation of his reply.


    Approaching her, he said indifferently, “I told him that I will be bringing you out.”


    Lin Xinyan was in a state of reverie for a few seconds. The moment she returned to her senses, she


    expressed her gratitude with a bright grin, “Thank you!”


    In return, Zong Jinghao snorted contemptuously. “I don’t think I have the right to turn you down, right?


    Otherwise, you may have me go through silent treatment for the entire day.”


    She wrapped her slender arms around his waist and stated coquettishly, “Can you please let me off the


    hook? This isn’t how a man’s supposed to behave. Besides, I have apologized countless times.”


    If I’m not a man, what am I? A woman?


    Lin Xinyan beamed her reply, “Thank you!”


    “We’ll only be heading over in the afternoon,” Zong Jinghao announced.


    “Okay!” She nodded vigorously in return because she would be d as long as she had the chance to


    participate in the wedding ceremony.


    Immediately after they had everything sorted out, Lin Xinyan got in touch with Wen Xiaoji and told him it


    would be unnecessary for him to drop by her ce.


    In the meantime, Su Zhan had been discharged from the hospital, but the doctor instructed him to stay


    put at home for the time being as he needed adequate rest. Nevertheless, the moment he was


    discharged, he insisted on registering as Qin Ya’s legal spouse.


    Qin Ya turned him down and told him they would get registered once he recovered. However, Su Zhan


    insisted on getting it done as soon as possible. Since she couldn’t seem to talk any sense into him, she


    decided to give in to the patient’s request.


    Within a few hours, they had gotten the paperwork done. After that, they hailed a cab and made their


    way home. In order to wee them home, Grandma Su had already instructed Chen Xue to tidy up


    their ce. Before their arrival, Chen Xue had opened the windows for better venttion. Their linen


    had been changed into a new set of linen as well.
