Stealing Your Heart

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.

Lin Xinyan and Zong Jinghao went to their seats. Their eyes were glued onto the stage.

The host stood between the bride and the bridegroom. His eyes flitted to the Zhuang Jiawen. “Do you, Mr. Zhuang Jiawen, take Ms. Shen Xinyao to be your lawfully wedded wife, to live together in marriage? Do you promise to love her, comfort her, honor and keep her for better or worse, for richer or poorer, in sickness and health, and forsaking all others, be faithful only to her, for as long as you both shall live?”

All eyes were on them.

Zhuang Jiawen looked at Shen Xinyao soulfully. “I do.”

The host then turned to Shen Xinyao. “Do you Ms. Shen Xinyao, take Mr. Zhuang Jiawen to be your wedded husband to live together in marriage? Do you promise to love him, comfort him, honor and keep him for better or worse, for richer or poorer, in sickness and health and forsaking all others, be faithful only to him so long as you both shall live?”

Right at this moment, Shen Xinyao thought of what happened the night before. She remembered Zhuang Jiawen standing in front of her with a gun in his hands, trying to defend her.

It was as though she met an angel.

Now, Shen Xinyao only wanted to focus on the present!

There were no longer any wishful scenarios of herself and Zhuang Jiawen she had to run through her mind.

Her gorgeous eyes were brighter than the brightest star in the sky of a summer night. Her eyes locked with Zhuang Jiawen’s as she enunciated her words clearly, “I do.”

She then added with much grit in her voice, “I take you as my lawful husband.”

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. NôvelDrama.Org is the owner.

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.”
