Stealing Your Heart

Lin Xinyan stopped and turned. She saw Zong Jinghao let go of Bai Zhuwei and walked towards her with steady steps.

The cold smile on his lips was like a sword swinging towards her. “Apologize to Zhuwei!”

Lin Xinyan did not move. She looked back stubbornly at his angry face.

“I won’t apologize to her.” Even if she was afraid of him.

She was not in the wrong; it was Bai Zhuwei who was about to push her.

She was just protecting herself. It was an instinct.

Why did he think she would apologize?

Zong Jinghao’s gaze stayed on her stubborn face and frowned. He had never really paid attention to her looks. Even when he lost control and kissed her, he had never properly looked at her.

She was on the skinny side. Her face was small, only the size of a hand. She had delicate features that radiated naivety. At this very moment, those starry eyes were looking at him, stubborn and determined.

Two pairs of eyes stared at each other, and no one wanted to take a step back.

“You pushed her, so you have to apologize!” His tone was still cold, but it was now missing its sharpness.

It seemed like he was shocked by her expression.

“Hao, I’m really fine. It was an accident, it’s not Ms. Lin’s fault.” Bai Zhuwei quickly walked over to interrupt the confrontation between the two.

She held onto Zong Jinghao’s arm and said, “Hao.”

She shook her head at Zong Jinghao. Her eyes were watery; she looked like she was quietly suffering from being wronged. “Hao, I wasn’t standing right earlier. It might be because my heels were too high. It really wasn’t Ms. Lin’s fault.” She tried her best to defend for Lin Xinyan.

Zong Jinghao looked down at her heels. It was high, but he had saw Lin Xinyan push her.

What was going on?

“Hao, I think I might have twisted my ankles. It’s painful.” Bai Zhuwei’s pretty face crumpled in pain.

Unlike her usual composed self, it looked cute.

Zong Jinghao reached out to tuck her messy strands behind her ears. This woman had been following him wordlessly without complaints, and she had sacrificed herself when he was poisoned.
