Stealing Your Heart

“I—”

She was feeling conflicted and complicated. She had to admit that she did have feelings toward Zong Jinghao, but she didn’t dare to admit it, and didn’t want to give it much thought.

She didn’t want to break such vague emotions and go to the bottom of it to find out whether it was love or not. It pained her to think so much.

When asked by Zhuang Zijin, she didn’t know how to answer, while she was having mixed feelings.

“Why don’t you speak?” Zhuang Zijin’s eyes turned red. “Perhaps, he treats you very well now, but have you thought about the future? Can he accept Xichen and Ruixi? Can he be okay with them for the rest of his life?”

“Mom, I don’t want to think about it now. By the way, we may have to live here for a while. I’m afraid that our house is not safe.” She deliberately changed the subject.

Zhuang Zijin refused to move on to another topic. “Is it because of him when you decided to come back to China?”

If they didn’t come back, maybe these things wouldn’t happen.

Lin Xinyan lowered her head and remained silent.

Apparently, she acquiesced in what Zhuang Zijin said.

Zhuang Zijin wanted to tell her not to be blinded by what seemed good now.

But, she swallowed back the words on the tip of her tongue, and instead, said, “You call the shots since it’s your business.”

She was an adult with her own thoughts and ideas.

Too much interference would bring her pressure.

Zhuang Zijin sighed. “Just live here. It’s important to ensure the kids’ safety.”

Thinking of what He Ruize did, she still had lingering fears.

Lin Xinyan knew what she was worried about and said, “Don’t worry, I will protect myself.”

Back in the villa, Zong Jinghao put Lin Xichen who was sleeping in the room downstairs.

Aunt Yu was standing at the door, watching.

Since Zong Jinghao came in, she had been following him, as if she had a lot of things to say.

“Do you already know?” Aunt Yu asked, standing at the door.

Zong Jinghao put a quilt on Lin Xichen, straightened up and looked at her. “Know what?”

Aunt Yu was anxious. “That they are your children.”

Zong Jinghao’s eyes darkened. It seemed that Aunt Yu’s topic had crossed the line.
