Stealing Your Heart Chapter 1066
Zong Yanxi remained rooted to the spot as she watched her brother’s retreating back. When he was
gone, she heaved a deep sigh.
She had only wanted to bring Zhuang Zijin to some familiar ces. The woman honestly did not expect
those things to happen.
This really is a horrible ce. Everything that’s rted to it is always bad!
In the ward.
The doctor inspected the injuries on Tawan’s back before instructing him, “Stay away from spicy and
cold foods. Try to sleep on your sides and not your back to prevent aggravating your injuries further.”
“Got it.”
“Here’s some cream. Apply it twice a day on your wounds.”
At that moment, Zong Yanxi entered with some food for Tawan. She ced the food on the table and
asked the doctor, “When will he recover from his injuries?”
“It shouldn’t take too long, maybe around two days. As long as he avoids touching his back, he’s free to
walk around as much as he likes. However, it’s probably going to take at least ten days or so for those
wounds to scab over.”
She nodded. “Thank you, Doctor.”
“It’s my duty. Oh, also try to avoid getting water on his wounds.”
“Okay.”
The doctor left to check on his other patients. Zong Yanxi escorted him out before returning and
shutting the door. She headed to the table and took out some takeaway food containers. “You’re
probably hungry, aren’t you?”
“I’m alright.” Tawan replied awkwardly. He was feeling rather cautious and ufortable.
Although he had confessed to Zong Yanxi and she had epted, now that they were in the same
room, there was just something a little off between them.
She moved to sit down beside the bed. Taking a bowl of porridge, she brought a spoonful to his mouth.
“This is pumpkin porridge with some meatballs. Try it and see if you like it.”
He raised his eyes to look at her. “I…”
“Hmm?” She locked gazes with him. “Is there something you want to say?”

He opened his mouth and swallowed the mouthful of porridge. “It’s good.” Pausing briefly, he
continued, “If you’re regretting – “
“I don’t regret it.”
She did not wait for him to finish speaking before interrupting him.
“You’re a man of your word, right? Then I’ll trust you to keep your word. Unless you’re regretting it?”
“Why would I regret it?” He straightened up in agitation as if that would prove his sincerity.
Unfortunately, all he managed to do was pull on his injuries. Sharp pain red from his wounds and
shot through his body.
The only outward expression of his pain was a slight twitching of his eyebrows.
“Hey, take it easy! You’re an injured man so stop moving!” She berated him mock-sternly.
His lips curled up slightly in a smile. Like a spring breeze, it was gentle and warm.
“What are you smiling at?” She brought another spoonful of porridge to his mouth.
“Am I smiling?”
“Would you like me to take a photo?” She eyed him sternly. “Now focus on eating your food.”
Her expression then sobered. “Once you’ve recovered from your injuries, I’ll head back to tell my
parents about us.”
Surprised, it took Tawan a moment to react. Then, he reached out to grab her hand. “Okay.”
Three dayster.
Zhuang Jiawen was able to find out just who was behind the abduction and attempted murder.
“That damn Jiang Mohan! He’s like a cockroach that just wouldn’t die!” He snorted angrily.
“He’s the mastermind behind what happened?” Tawan questioned.
Although he was not that familiar with Jiang Mohan, he had talked with the other man a few times.
Based on those brief interactions, he felt like Jiang Mohan was not the type of man to do something like
this.
“ording to my investigations, Li Xiaohui and Nan Cheng were both involved in the nning. Their
main objective was to kidnap my sister and ce her in danger. Then, Jiang Mohan would be the
shining knight in armor who rushes to her rescue. They did that in hopes that she’ll forgive him. But for
some unknown reason, he never appeared.” Zhuang Jiawen exined.
Suspicion and doubt rose in Tawan.
If Jiang Mohan really is the mastermind behind this, why would he suddenly disappear at the most
crucial moment?
“Were your investigations thorough?” He queried Zhuang Jiawen.
“Nan Cheng is Jiang Mohan’s personal assistant. There’s no way he would dare do anything without
Jiang Mohan’s order.” Zhuang Jiawen sneered as he added, “Does Jiang Mohan seriously think he can
obtain my sister’s forgiveness just like that? He must be dreaming!”
All Zhuang Jiawen felt for Jiang Mohan was utter disdain.
“Previously, he yed with my sister’s feelings. Now, he’s using such despicable methods to get her
back again! What a douchebag!”
Tawan flicked his eyes over to look at Zong Yanxi.
Her expression waspletely nk.
As if sensing his gaze, she lifted her eyes and met his. A gentle and sincere smile bloomed across her
face.
Nowadays, she was almostpletely indifferent whenever she heard Jiang Mohan’s name being
mentioned.
Since Tawan already knew about her past, she did not want to say anything more.
He was a grown man who could make his own decisions. If he did not mind her past, why should she
keep bringing it up?
Let bygones be bygones.
Zhuang Jiawen continued his rant,pletely unaware of the silent interaction between the couple.
“I’ve checked on Li Xiaohui’s background. She isn’t from a particrly powerful family, only somewhat
rich. Dealing with people like her isn’t hard. However, I’m not going to take it easy on her. No, I want to
let her know the true meaning of regret.” Zhuang Jiawen had alreadye up with a n to handle
her. “As for Nan Cheng, he’s not the mastermind behind this. That title belongs to Jiang Mohan. I’m not
sure if he disappeared because he knew his n was a failure or what. I can’t seem to find him
anywhere!”
