Stealing Your Heart (Lin Xinyan) novel Chapter 1017

Zong Jinghao’s senses were very acute. He could notice Lin Xinyan creeping up on him. Calmly, he gave an order to the person on the other end of the phone, “Continue the search.”

Then, he hung up the phone.

He kept his phone and turned around nonchalantly. He saw Lin Xinyan and walked to her. “Let’s go in.”

Lin Xinyan arched her neck. “Who were you talking to on the phone?”

“It was a friend who can’t attend the wedding,” Zong Jinghao replied.

Lin Xinyan couldn’t tell whether Zong Jinghao was lying.

Nevertheless, she sensed that there was something fishy going on. She could swear that just seconds ago she heard her husband uttering her son’s name. Did I hear wrongly?

No, I don’t think so.

“Which friend is it?” Lin Xinyan followed up with another question.

Being Zong Jinghao’s wife, she knew almost everyone in his circle.

Zong Jinghao lowered his head to look at her. He raised one of his brows dubiously. “You think I’m lying?”

Lin Xinyan pursed her lips and went straight to the point. “I heard you mentioning Yanchen just now. Is the phone call related to him?”

Zong Jinghao and Lin Xinyan had been husband and wife for such a long time. There was no reason for them to hide anything from each other.

“You heard wrongly.” Zong Jinghao held Lin Xinyan firmly by her shoulders. “You’re the bridegroom’s mother. You’ve got to smile when you get on the stage later.”

“I heard wrongly?” Lin Xinyan wasn’t going to give up so easily.

Zong Jinghao looked straight into her eyes. “Since when have I ever lied to you?”

Lin Xinyan couldn’t think of a response.

In the hall, the wedding was still on-going.

Now, it was time for the couple to exchange vows.

Boom!

Thunderous applause came from the audience.

“Now, the bride and the bridegroom shall kiss!” The host’s voice echoed in the room.

The applause was even louder now.

Zhuang Jiawen’s movements were slightly sluggish as he worried that Shen Xinyao would be affected by what happened the night before. However, Shen Xinyao lunged forward to hug him by his neck. She perched herself up on her toes and sealed his lips with hers.

Zhuang Jiawen didn’t expect Shen Xinyao to take the initiative to kiss him at all. Out of shock, he just froze there on the stage.

“Are you regretting it now?” Shen Xinyao muttered softly as Zhuang Jiawen didn’t respond.

Zhuang Jiawen only snapped out of his trance then. He immediately placed his arms around her waist. Pft, regret?

“Yeah, I am regretful.” Before Shen Xinyao could react, he pulled her in and gave her a big kiss. He mumbled, “I regret not marrying you earlier.”
