Stealing Your Heart

When she did not hear a response, she turned around. “Ya—”

However, the person behind her was not the one she was expecting. In fact, it was someone she never expected.

“Why are you here?” Lin Xinyan unconsciously curled her fingers and tightened her grip on the pencil.

Zong Jinghao looked around the room. It was white-themed and minimalistic.

“Is this where you work?” He walked to the French windows and looked out.

Lin Xinyan put down the pencil and stood up. “I’m talking to you.”

Zong Jinghao turned around, looked at her, and laughed lightly. “I’m here for you, obviously.”

Lin Xinyan’s hands gripped onto the edge of the table behind. She stared at him, hoping to see his true intentions.

What did he want?

Yet she could not sense anything.

“You’ve seen Mrs. William, haven’t you?” She asked, albeit more like saying a statement.

She could not think of anyone else who would force her to go back there.

Zong Jinghao walked over, pulled out the chair behind her, and sat down. “Yes,” he answered honestly.

“Why?” Lin Xinyan almost shouted.

She could not understand why he wanted to do this.

“There’s no why.” Zong Jinghao grabbed on her wrist and pulled her towards him until she sat on his legs. Lin Xinyan was unwilling, and she struggled to get out of him.

“I’m injured.”

“What does that have to do with me?” Lin Xinyan said.

Zong Jinghao sighed. “Aren’t you curious about what I gave to Mrs. William?”
