Stealing Your Heart

Lin Xichen lowered his head and said nothing.

Lin Xinyan frowned. “Say something.”

Lin Xichen picked his finger. “He bullied Mommy, so I will teach him a lesson for Mommy.”

Lin Xinyan’s brows furrowed deeper. He had been emphasizing one thing before—Zong Jinghao bullied her.

He—

Suddenly Lin Xinyan’s eyes widened. Did he see Zong Jinghao forcibly kissed me?

“Xichen…”

Lin Xinyan didn’t know how to explain.

Lin Xichen firmly patted his chest and said, “Mommy, although Ruixi and I don’t have a father, I am a man and I will protect you.”

Her son’s words ‘I don’t have a father’ suddenly hit home. It was something that Lin Xinyan had deliberately ignored deep down.

She would not mention this matter.

She thought that as long as she loved them very much, it could make up for the fact that they didn’t have a father.

However, it was brought up by her son so abruptly, causing her to feel an ache in her heart.

She held her son, bowed her head, and kissed his hair. Although he was very smart, he was only five years old, and was just a child.

Yet, he kept saying that he wanted to protect her.

She rubbed her palm against her son’s back. “I should be the one to protect you—”

Lin Xichen disagreed and shook his head. “A man should protect a woman. I am a man. I protect you.”

Lin Xinyan looked at her son speechlessly. He’s still so young, why is he such a machismo?

“Who taught you this?” Lin Xinyan asked with a frown.

Lin Xichen blinked his eyes and thought for two seconds. “My teacher.”

Lin Xinyan then brought him to take a bath but wondered in her heart if she needed to talk to his teacher.

Is it appropriate to tell such a small child this thing?

“Mommy, my teacher is actually quite handsome and treats me well—”

“Stop it!” Lin Xinyan interrupted him. How could the thoughts of this small kid be so complicated?

Lin Xichen mumbled, “You don’t think for yourself, so I have to think for you.”

Speechless, Lin Xinyan threw him into the water. “You will not be allowed to meddle with adults’ affairs in the future.”
