Stealing Your Heart (Lin Xinyan) novel Chapter 872

When he saw how terrible her wounds were, he relented, “Very well, but we must be careful. Just in case Zong Jinghao knows…”

“Don’t worry, we’ll be fine as long as we’re careful.” The woman was consumed by the urge to vent her frustrations.

“Fine.” Zong Yungan knew that she was filled with hatred and wanted to vent on the child after what she had been through.

He figured they would be fine as long as they were careful enough.

After leaving by the backdoor, they scanned their surroundings before entering the car. However, they didn’t notice the men hidden behind the nearby trees. When the men saw them got in their car, they stepped back to prevent detection.

Zong Yungan felt that they were being very discreet and no one had noticed. Little did he know that they were watching him from the very beginning.

As the car drove further away from the city, it stopped at a nursing home in the outskirts.

Zong Yungan alighted and was quickly followed by the woman. Filled with glee, she remarked, “There’s no way they could’ve guessed that we hid the child in a nursing home.”

Meanwhile, Zong Yungan checked his surroundings again. “We should still be careful to be safe. Let’s go.”

After the woman nodded, they entered through the backdoor as it was quieter there.

The cars that tailed them stopped nearby. The men who alighted continued the tail on foot.

As Zong Yungan and the woman navigated through the building, they arrived at a small wooden hut at the back of the nursing home.

The woman ordered some men to watch the door as she and Zong Yungan entered.

There was a single bed in the small hut. Beside it, was a small table. A middle-aged woman sat beside the bed holding a baby in her arms.

“Put the child down and leave us.”

The middle-aged woman gently put down the child and informed her, “The child cried the whole night and has just slept.”

The woman grew impatient, “I know. Now leave!”

The baby looked adorable. Although the middle-aged woman was just paid to do this, she felt a sense of delight when she saw how cute the baby was. It was just that she didn’t understand why did they have to keep the child there.

Nevertheless, she didn’t dare ask. After tucking the baby in, she left the hut.

When the woman walked towards the bedside and saw how much the baby resembled Lin Xinyan, her heart was filled with jealous rage. They were both women but she had to please an old man while Lin Xinyan could be married to the perfect man and have his children. The more she thought about it, the angrier she got.

In a fit, she pulled off the blanket covering the baby causing him to begin crying.

“Cry, cry all you want. When your parents hear you, they must definitely be heartbroken.” The woman took out her phone and took pictures of the baby crying so that she could show them to Zong Jinghao later. She wanted him to feel the consequences of hurting her, which was his son would have to suffer.

Holding up her phone, she reached out and caressed the baby’s face. “You are really lucky.”

To have been born into a good family.

She then laughed as her eyes were filled with an icy and insidious glare. “But it’s a pity that you have fallen into my hands.”

Just as she spoke, she covered the child’s mouth. “You’re not allowed to cry!”

The baby’s face turned red.

“Haha…” the woman laughed heartily. “The pain I felt today will be borne by you. If you want someone to blame, blame your parents then!”

Suddenly, there was a loud bang and the door was kicked open.

“How did this happen?” The woman didn’t understand what they did wrong to have lead Zong Jinghao here.

Guan Jing squatted in front of her and tapped her face that was covered by bandage. The pain from the wound caused her to grimace with her eyes closed.

“You’re really stupid. Did you think that we would let you go that easily after capturing you? Weren’t you even the least bit curious to be let off that easily?”

The woman widened her eyes in shock. “Is this part of your scheme? Did you let me go on purpose?”

Guan Jing snorted and didn’t bother answering her. Of course, he let her be rescued on purpose. Everything else he did to her was deliberate as he wanted to provoke her. Or else, how could her fingers still move if not for the fact that he restrained himself while smashing them.

Everything he did was to fill her with hatred, anger, and frustration.

After that, he gave her the opportunity to be rescued. At that point, she was filled with so much animosity that she could no longer think rationally and was prone to being impulsive.

They were waiting to exploit that impulse.

From the moment Zong Jinghao left the building, he put his plan in motion. Firstly, he instructed Guan Jing to torture the woman in his text message. However, he reminded him to restrain himself so as not to get her killed.

After that, he sent the location of the woman to Zong Yungan on purpose, so that he would come to rescue her.

The last to know about this plan was Shen Peichuan. Zong Jinghao only told him about it when he sent him to lead Guan Jing away.

When Shen Peichuan peeled Guan Jing away, he even mentioned his concern about having his identity exposed. Those words were to mislead the woman to think that she was being rescued for real.

All their actions were geared to provoke her into seeking vengeance and venting her frustrations on the baby. That way, she would inadvertently lead them to the baby’s location.

At that moment, Zong Yungan regained his senses. When he realized he had been tricked, he glared angrily at the woman.
