Stealing Your Heart (Lin Xinyan) novel Chapter 518

Stealing Your Heart Chapter 518

Looking at his phone, Zong Jinghao could not help but think of the time Lin Xinyan leaped on him and forced a kiss on him. Although her consciousness was a little muddled back then, he liked how expressive she was about her love for him. Lin Xinyan would do everything she could to make sure he felt her love.

She was such a darling and he could not have enough of her.

Although she was with him for just a few hours, it was enough for him.

Lin Xinyan never failed to put a smile on his face and Zong Jinghao grinned unknowingly as he thought of her. Across the office table, Su Zhan could not believe his eyes. He rubbed his eyes to make sure he was really seeing Zong Jinghao smiling.

“Are my eyes deceiving me? I can’t believe you’re smiling!” Su Zhan exclaimed.

He craned his neck and peered at Zong Jinghao’s phone to see what he was looking at. But before he could see anything, Zong Jinghao locked his phone screen and glared at him stiffly.

What a petty man…

It’s not like I’m a busybody. You don’t have to look at me like that!

Just as Su Zhan was rolling his eyes at Zong Jinghao, the call got through to the Department of Public Relations. “Mr. Zong, you’re looking for me?” the chief asked.

Zong Jinghao’s gaze returned to the computer screen as he replied, “Have you seen the news?”

“Yes,” the voice said.

“I did some digging and I think someone randomly posted these photos. I need you to find the person who posted this and stop the photos from spreading further,” Zong Jinghao ordered.

After he saw the news, he found out that the photos were first posted by an individual account. There were not a lot of comments about the photos in the original post until a social media influencer account reposted them.

It would not be difficult to settle this.

“Understood, I’ll look into it right away,” the chief of the department said.

Zong Jinghao ended the call and stood up with his phone in his hand. He grabbed his suit and turned to Su Zhan. “Stop by the school when you have time. One of the students has an account named “I Am Ketchup”. Ask the school to get this student to write a statement. I’ll get the Department of Public Relations to contact the school and settle this issue,” he said before turning and left.

“But how are we gonna explain the photos?” Su Zhan called out to Zong Jinghao before he could disappear from his sight.

“The Department of Public Relations will take care of that!” Zong Jinghao answered without looking back.

They just needed to make sure the situation did not spiral out of control. Once they were able to take down the news and get the person who started it to make a statement, they would be able to give the public an acceptable explanation and verify the authenticity of those photos.

“Alright, I’ll swing by the school then,” Su Zhan agreed.

Zong Jinghao walked out of his office and headed home. He badly needed a good shower. His shirt stank and his whole body felt sticky.

Back in the office, Su Zhan looked at Sang Yu, thinking about what he should do with her. I don’t think I can bring her back to school…

Just as he was contemplating what he should do, his phone rang in his pocket. It was Shen Peichuan. Su Zhan picked up his call immediately and asked urgently, “How is everything?”

“I just got back to the police station. I’m going to meet with the superiors later on. Have you met Sang Yu? How is she?” Shen Peichuan inquired.

Su Zhan looked at Sang Yu from the corner of his eyes and said, “She’s fine, you don’t have to worry about her. Just make sure you don’t lose your job over this.” Su Zhan’s voice rang loud and clear in the room—he wanted Sang Yu to know Shen Peichuan would be punished because of this matter.

“Chief Shen, you’re wanted at Captain Song’s office,” a distant voice could be heard from the other side of the call.

Shen Peichuan nodded and quickly ended the call. “I gotta go, talk to you later,” he said and hung up right after.

Sang Yu sat up and asked, “Was that Chief Shen?”

“Yeah. I guess he’s going to get a good scolding,” Su Zhan replied.

“Can you tell me where he is? I want to go see him. I won’t go in and create more mess. I’ll just wait for him outside,” Sang Yu pleaded.

Su Zhan looked at her and finally nodded. “Alright, I’ll send you over.”

He had everything planned out—he would send her over and get Shen Peichuan’s officers to take care of her before he went over to the school.

Besides, by sending her over, Shen Peichuan and Sang Yu would get to spend some time together as well.

“He’s in the captain’s office now,” Liu told her the situation.

“Will everything be okay for him?” Sang Yu was worried sick.

Liu thought for a while and said objectively, “I’m not sure. There will definitely be some form of disciplinary action taken against him. Since he is someone of position, the issue is bound to have negative impacts.”

“Can you bring me to see your captain? This is all my fault and has nothing to do with Chief Shen” Sang Yu quickly replied.

Liu did not expect the girl to be this bold. “Alright then,” he said after seeing the determination in her eyes.

After all, it might be better to listen to both sides of the story. Things might get cleared up sooner.

Liu ushered her through another corridor towards the captain’s office.

Just as Liu was about to reach for the door handle, a loud crash pierced through the air. Liu jerked and Sang Yu almost cried out. Judging from the sound of it, the captain must have flung a cup across his office.

This would be the worst time to disturb them.

Captain Shen must be getting a good scolding right now.

However, Sang Yu simply collected herself and stepped forward. She was set on shouldering the blame with Chief Shen. She knocked on the door with a determined look on her face.

Liu stared at her, astonished. “Did you not hear what just happened?” he asked softly.

“Yes, I did. That’s why I have to go in,” Sang Yu said resolutely.

Even though she was fearful, she decided that she would go in and face everything with Shen Peichuan.

“Come in,” a coarse voice came from inside the office.

With that, it was too late for Liu to stop her.
