Stealing Your Heart Chapter 250
After some time, Lin Xinyan managed to calm her raging emotions. She pulled herself away from Zong Jinghao’s embrace and wiped the corners of her eyes awkwardly. “Ah, I’ve embarrassed myself.”
How embarrassing of her to lose control of her emotions like that!
This was precisely what Zong Jinghao liked about her. She was real; a human with flesh and blood and also complex emotions.
Without hiding his love, the man’s wide grin tugged on the sides of his lips. “I like it.”
He liked how she outright displayed all her emotions and everything about herself, hiding nothing in front of him.
Lin Xinyan hung her head lower, unable to respond to him at all.
The room suddenly felt too small for her. She could feel the air thinning and her breath hitching. She could feel the temperature on her cheeks going up in embarrassment.
“Are you blushing?”
Lin Xinyan pushed him away from her, stubbornly refusing to admit she was indeed blushing, “You’re the one who is blushing.”
Zong Jinghao was not ready for the push and staggered back, only to slip right on a puddle of water behind him. Lin Xinyan grabbed hold of him the moment he slipped, but she was not strong enough to stop his fall and ended up crashing on the floor with him…
“Ahh!” Lin Xinyan yelped in shock, followed by the loud sounds of the impact from the fall.
Bang!
Zong Jinghao let out a low grunt. The washroom was not big to begin with, hence he ended up banging his head on the wall. But that was not the fatal part of his fall. What made him almost die in pain was his wife’s elbow that had pressed on his…
He couldn’t help but think, would his manhood malfunction after this?
“Are, are you ok?” Lin Xinyan was not the least bit aware of where had she crashed herself on. All she heard was her husband’s grunts of pain.
“Can you get off me first?”
Zong Jinghao turned to her in pain. “You’re murdering your husband.”
Lin Xinyan was speechless at his words.
In an effort to get up, the woman had to use her arms to support herself, only then did she realize her elbow seemed to be at the wrong place…
Lowering her gaze… the woman now realized in horror that her elbows were exerting most of her force on his…
Outside the toilet, Su Zhan and Shen Peichuan turned to each other at the crashing voice.
Then, like a pair of clones sharing the same brain cell, the two dashed towards the washroom at the same time and pushed the door open…
The world went silent after that.
The two were greeted by the sight of Zong Jinghao sitting on the floor while Lin Xinyan was sprawled on his body, her eyes looking down at his…
Cough! Cough!
“What are you two doing?” Su Zhan gasped exaggeratingly. Since it was such a rare occurrence to find Zong Jinghao in such an embarrassing position, his friend had to grab hold of the opportunity to tease him relentlessly.
“Get lost!”
Zong Jinghao shot an icy glare towards his friend, just like a frightening avalanche on an iceberg.
However, Su Zhan merely shrugged without closing the door. He wanted to take another look at the embarrassing scene.
Shen Peichuan glared at him and closed the door. “Aren’t you afraid of Jinghao’s ruthless revenge later?”
Knowing that his friend wouldn’t do anything to him, Su Zhan grinned wider instead. “Hey, guess what were they doing just now?”
With a serious face, Shen Peichuan rubbed his chin in deep thought. “Oh my, is he being horny now?”
Pfft!
Su Zhan laughed out loud at his unexpected words. With that serious face of his, he thought Shen Peichuan was going to reprimand him for being gossipy, only to be blurting out gossips himself!
“Do you think that Jinghao ever managed to sleep with her?” Su Zhan moved closer to Shen Peichuan.
The man eyed Su Zhan with a knowing smile. “I think not as fast as you and Ms. Qin.”
This time it was Su Zhan’s turn to be speechless.
Poor Zong Jinghao had to let her go wordlessly.
Well, some people were like this. If you were nice to them, they would take advantage of you. When you lose your temper, only then they would be obedient.
And that was when the term ‘shameless’ came into play. Maybe the term was specially created for describing such people.
Lin Xinyan put his arms over her shoulders and helped her husband up.
She was the one who caused his slip, hence it was only right for her to help him up.
Throughout the process, Zong Jinghao’s gaze was constantly on her. He had long recovered from the pain and was able to get up himself, but he wanted to enjoy having his wife sticking so near to him.
His body pressed closer to her as he got up.
Lin Xinyan opened the door to see Su Zhan and Shen Peichuan enjoying their tea on the sofa, perfectly missing out their gossiping session. The woman relaxed at the sight and spoke first to avoid the incoming awkwardness. “What happened? How did Yao Qingqing actually get pregnant?’
And at the age of 16? She was not even an adult yet!
Shen Peichuan put down his tea. “Rumors from the villagers claimed that Yao Qingqing was not mindful of her actions and had slept around with several guys in school. Her adopted family despised her for that and refused to provide for her, so they let her…”
“Really?” Lin Xinyan didn’t think that Yao Qingqing was such a reckless woman. At the age of 16, although she was still an immature teenager, she should have enough knowledge to protect herself from sex. How was it possible for her to just sleep with a man with no protection and give birth to a child?
“Of course, I believe there must be some hidden agenda behind this. After all, my men were not there for long and this incident happened a long time ago. The Yao family members are also hiding this on purpose, hence it is impossible for my men to investigate further.” Shen Peichuan analyzed from his experience. He had a feeling that things were not as simple as that. Where did Yao Qingqing’s hatred towards Lin Xinyan stem from?
So much so that she would expose her own scar and frighten the woman with an abused prank doll?
Lin Xinyan had a hunch on why Yao Qingqing hated her though. “I guess she loves Bai Yinning and is jealous of my closeness with him?”
She helped Zong Jinghao to the sofa and sat beside him. “Although there’s no direct evidence, she’s still a strong suspect. She visited the hotel before, but she denied it.”
“How do you know that?” Shen Peichuan asked.
“She said so herself. Bai Yinning tried to prove to me that Yao Qingqing was not the one who threatened me, hence he invited her over to meet with me face-to-face just now. It was then she told me she has not come to the hotel before.”
Now Su Zhan was interested. “What’s her relationship with Bai Yinning for him to be so protective of her?”
