Stealing Your Heart

Zong Jinghao looked up at her and his gaze landed on the hand that she was covering her chest with. “Did you get burned?”

Lin Xinyan was quiet for a moment.

She turned her head, unable to take his gaze. “No.”

She walked towards the lounge and sat on the couch. She took a few tissues and started wiping the water on her neck.

The light in front of her was suddenly blocked. She did not know when Zong Jinghao had walked over. Lin Xinyan quietly coughed once. “I thought you have many matters to settle? Why did you come over?”

When she came in with the water, she saw a tall stack of documents on his office table, waiting to be signed.

As if he had not heard her, Zong Jinghao took the tissue from her. “I’ll wipe it for you.”

“No need.” Lin Xinyan tried to grab the tissue back from him. He raised his hand and she failed to take it back.

“Listen to me.” Zong Jinghao crouched down in front of her legs and gently pulled open her collar to wipe the water on her skin.

His eyes were lowered and there were shadows under his long eyelashes. He looked serious and gentle as if he was wiping expensive antique. Lin Xinyan fell into a trance for a moment.

She turned away slightly. She did not dare to look at him for too long.

She was afraid that this was just a beautiful dream.

That it was not real.

“Don’t be too nice to me.” She did not want to fall into his gentle trap.

She did not want to think about her past, but the fact was there.

After that night, she did not think that she could have romantic love for the rest of her life.

She had lost her rights to have what was beautiful.

She could not deny that in her life, the mark that Zong Jinghao had left in her became deeper and deeper, until it could no longer be erased and she could not ignore it. She seemed to have gotten used to his domineer, his flippant behavior, and his occasional tenderness. Bit by bit, it took over her heart that she had never revealed.

He gave a light laugh. “I want to be nice to you.”

Lin Xinyan’s eyes were red but she did not want Zong Jinghao to realize, so she said in a cold tone, “You’re blind.”

Zong Jinghao was speechless.
