Stealing Your Heart Chapter 999


    After asking about Yanchen, Lin Xinyan inquired about Wen Xiaoji’s son. “Why didn’t we see Zinuo at


    the table just now?”


    “Sigh.” To him, it would have been better if his son weren’t mentioned. “When he wasn’t willing to join


    the army, he insisted on doing whatever he fancied. But up to now, I’ve not seen him produce any


    concrete results. He must have been spoiled by his Mom.”


    “Is he not your son too?” Chen Shihan heard Wen Xiaoji’s remarks just as she entered with a te of


    fruits. She couldn’t help but retort, “It’s all my fault but did you do anything to help?”


    “Wasn’t I busy with work?” Wen Xiaoji rebutted meekly.


    “You ignored him because you were busy and yet youin that I spoil him. It’s hard being in my


    ce.” Chen Shihan put the te of fruits down on the table. Looking at Lin Xinyan, she exined with


    a smile, “Zinuo is just as rebellious as Xiaoji was when he was young. They’re both unwilling to ept


    the path their parentsid out for them. Instead, they enjoy finding their own way.”


    Lin Xinyanughed. “Sons usually take after their fathers.”


    Wen Xiaoji was speechless as he was indeed at constant loggerheads with his father when he was


    young.


    “It’s in the genes. His character has been inherited by his son,” Chen Shihan asserted.


    “By the way, there’s something I would like to discuss with you,” Chen Shihan suggested as she looked


    at Lin Xinyan.


    Lin Xinyan nodded.


    “Let’s talk about it outside.” Chen Shihan walked over and both of them headed out.


    Once the study room’s door was closed, Lin Xinyan asked, “What is it?”


    “Erm, since Jiawen is getting married, should I be preparing one or two presents? Also, what should I


    get?” Chen Shihan kept in touch with Shen Peichuan in recent years although it was mostly because of


    Zong Jinghao. Now that their daughter was getting married, she wondered if she should also prepare a


    gift for them.


    As for Zhuang Jiawen, it went without saying that a gift was obligated. However, she pondered on what


    she should get for Shen Xinyao.


    “One will do.” Lin Xinyan couldn’t care less about such matters.


    “That won’t do.” Chen Shihan felt that two presents were appropriate. After all, she knew both the


    groom and the bride’s families.


    Lin Xinyan smiled. “Based on what you’re saying, even I have to prepare a gift for Sang Yu because


    her daughter is getting married?”


    Chen Shihanughed. “That seems to be the case. They too are obligated to get you a gift because


    your son is getting married.”


    “Wouldn’t it be a messter?” Lin Xinyan poured a ss of water to drink.


    In the study.


    Wen Xiaoji wanted to go out too. “Why don’t we go for a walk?”


    It was better with Lin Xinyan around as he felt less guilty. To face Zong Jinghao alone was a stressful


    situation despite his advanced age.


    Zong Jinghao went straight to the point. “Tell me, what happened?”


    Wen Xiaoji continued to y dumb. “What are you getting at? I don’t understand.”


    “Is Yanchen in some sort of danger?” Zong Jinghao stood up and approached Wen Xiaoji. “Of course I


    hope my son is safe. But I still want to know the truth so please don’t hide it from me.”


    Wen Xiaoji had no choice. “I’m just don’t want you to worry. Given Yanxi’s matter had just blown over, I


    didn’t even know how to tell you.”


    Zong Jinghao’s expression tensed up briefly. Despite being concerned for his son, he kept his


    composure. “Go ahead, I’ll keep it to myself.”


    He promised he wasn’t going to tell Lin Xinyan.


    Wen Xiaoji pursed his lips. “During his mission, he tried to save hisrade…”


    He didn’t dare continue.


    Zong Jinghao closed his eyes and tried his best to suppress his emotions. He prodded in a deep voice,
