Stealing Your Heart Chapter 579

Gu Bei’s tone was a little mean when he pointed out, “I won’t have come to you if B City has anywhere to hide the guy.”

Gu Huixin wasn’t brought up by her immediate family. Gu Bei, on the other hand, was the only son, so their parents had been spoiling him ever since he was born. Hence, he had virtually zero rapport with Gu Huixin. In fact, of all his sisters, he was only somewhat close to his eldest sister, who was also raised by the immediate family.

All that made Gu Bei a disrespectful man who assumed that everyone was supposed to help him.

Gu Huixin wasn’t happy with Gu Bei’s tone or his words, so she reminded him, “I am your elder sister.”

“I know. Why else would I come to you?” said Gu Bei. His voice carried no hint of appreciation or respect.

Gu Huixin closed her eyes and sighed deeply. Gu Bei doesn’t even have a clue to what I am talking about.

As far as Gu Bei was concerned, his family was just people he could take advantage of. He didn’t feel any family bonds and never learned how to love or be respectful.

“He will not be in B City. Instead, he will go to Baicheng. If you’re okay with it, we can meet up and talk about it tomorrow. If not, you will have to find another solution to your problem. My home is off-limit either way,” informed Gu Huixin clearly and sternly.

Gu Huixin truly couldn’t bring herself to love that baby brother of hers.

She didn’t even want to hang out with him. If they weren’t related, she would’ve completely ignored him.

Gu Bei almost lost his temper, but he was in deep trouble and had no other choice. If he did, he would not have gone to his sister in the first place.

Shen Peichuan’s men had been keeping Gu Bei under twenty-four-hour surveillance, and Gu Bei had lost his freedom. If that situation persisted, Number Four would be exposed, eventually.

Gu Bei was out of option and could only agree to those terms.

“Okay, I’ll allow that, but where is this Baicheng? Are you sure it’s safe?” asked Gu Bei, who still had his concerns because he had never heard of Baicheng before.

Gu Huixin was rendered speechless for a moment there.

“Baicheng is a smaller city. I’m only recommending that place to you because it is safe. There’s nothing I can do if you don’t believe me, though,” said Gu Huixin, who was about to hang up.

Gu Bei quickly replied, “Okay, okay, I trust you. Can I have someone take Number Four to your place tomorrow?”

Gu Huixin didn’t give him an immediate answer. Instead, she put her phone away and covered the speaker with her hand before asking Bai Yinning, “He said he will have his men get the guy here tomorrow. Will that be okay?”

Bai Yinning nodded and said, “I will have someone drive over and pick the guy up from here.”

“Okay, then I’ll have him get the guy over tomorrow,” said Gu Huixin before she put her phone back by her ear and told Gu Bei, “Have the guy over by tomorrow.”

“Alright,” said Gu Bei before he hung up immediately.

Gu Huixin frowned at the phone after being hung up. The guy didn’t even bother thanking her for her help. That showed just how disrespectful he was towards his elder sister. Hell, he didn’t even have the most basic manners.

“If you’re not happy with this, make things clear with him after the dust settled, mom. Tell him not to contact you anymore,” said Bai Yinning, who could tell that Gu Huixin was extremely upset with her baby brother.

“I will. Go rest now. It’s late,” said Gu Huixin.

Bai Yinning murmured a reply before adjusting his wheelchair and going back to his room.

At the manor.

Lin Xinyan slept soundly, and Zong Jinghao never woke her up. She only got up because she was too hungry, and when she checked the clock, she realized that it was midnight. She turned around as she rubbed her eyes, and she asked, “Why didn’t you wake me?”

Zong Jinghao held her in his arms and replied, “You were sleeping so soundly, and I couldn’t get myself to wake you up.”

Lin Xinyan was speechless for a moment there.

“It’s so late. Is there any food left?” protested Lin Xinyan a little as she pulled her blanket away. She was still wearing the white skirt she wore during the day. Zong Jinghao had messed with her shirt when they were in the washroom, so her collar had fallen to her shoulder. The kiss marks Zong Jinghao left on Lin Xinyan’s chest were still there as well.

Lin Xinyan adjusted her shirt to cover those marks up. She was feeling extremely uncomfortable because she hadn’t had a chance to shower, and she felt dirty. Therefore, the first thing she did was to grab some clean clothes and took a shower.

Lin Xinyan didn’t look up from her bowl, but she asked, “Do you like plump women?”

Zong Jinghao reached out to pinch her arm a little before answering, “You are like a toothpick and are too thin. I want to fatten you up a little.”

Lin Xinyan giggled, “Given my height, will it be okay if I get up to a hundred kilograms?”

Zong Jinghao turned quiet.

Lin Xinyan shifted her gaze up when Zong Jinghao didn’t reply. She asked, “What’s wrong? Are you disgusted by the image you thought up?”

Zong Jinghao had his hand on his chin, and he sounded serious when he concluded, “I’ll have to find and buy you some hormones if you want to get up to a hundred kilograms.”

Lin Xinyan turned speechless upon hearing that.

His words and comments were valid because it was difficult for her to gain weight, and her biological make-up actually was the problem.

Zong Jinghao slipped his arm around her waist and caressed her. The soft fabric of her clothes was the only thing in between them. He promised, “I will love you no matter what you look like.”

“I don’t buy that,” said Lin Xinyan as she finished the last bit of soup in the smaller bowl. After that, she set her chopsticks and her spoon down.

Zong Jinghao inched closer to her and asked, “What do I have to do to make you believe me? Maybe I should write up a contract.”

Lin Xinyan loosened her clothes a bit. Drinking the hot soup had gotten her to sweat, and Zong Jinghao being that close only made her feel hotter. There was simply too much soup left, so she couldn’t finish it. She pushed the bigger bowl to Zong Jinghao and said, “Here, you finish it. It’d be a waste if we throw everything away.”

Zong Jinghao was reluctant to dig in because he didn’t enjoy eating oily food at night.

Lin Xinyan pursed her lips and pouted, “Didn’t you say that you want to prove how much you love me? I will believe you if you finish all the soup in this bowl. There is no need to go through the trouble of writing a contract up. I will trust you, anyway.”

Zong Jinghao couldn’t speak for a moment there. He honestly couldn’t bring himself to drink the soup, so he asked, “Is there any other way to prove it? Can I do that instead?”
