Stealing Your Heart

“Tired.” Lin Ruixi’s hands were gripped tight onto Zong Jinghao’s shirt. She wanted to sleep but could not because the place was unfamiliar.

Her little body kept fidgeting in his arms.

Zong Jinghao pulled her closer and his large hands struck her back. He patiently coaxed her, “Good girl, Daddy will hold you while you sleep.”

Lin Ruixi buried her face into his chest. Daddy’s arms were so warm. She could feel him and his warmth through the fabric. “Daddy, will you still abandon Mommy and us? I don’t want to leave you. I want Daddy, Mommy, and Xichen to live together, like what the other kids have. There’s Mommy, Daddy, Grandma, Grandpa…”

The little girl’s voice trailed off until he could not hear it.

Zong Jinghao lowered his head. The little girl had buried her face in his arms, and the corners of her eyes were damp.

“I saw other kids’ being carried by their daddies, and their daddies pushed their swings for them. I’m envious…”

Since birth, she only had Mommy, Xichen, and Grandma. There was never a Daddy.

She was clingy to Zong Jinghao when she met him, because she was afraid that he would not want her again.

Then she would become a fatherless child again.

Zong Jinghao moved his body and held her head in his hands. He did not know if it was because it was stuffy or was it because of suffering she had for many years. Her eyes were red and there were beads of tears on her long eyelashes. He bent down to kiss the beads of tears away from her eyes. He said in a low voice, “No, I’ll never leave you from now on.”

His lips were warm and soft and the little girl closed her eyes instinctively. Daddy’s breath was so close to her. He was hugging her and he was kissing her. She felt like she was the luckiest girl in the world.

She was easily satisfied. A simple kiss had melted her heart.

However, she did not know that her words had made this man agitate.

When Lin Xinyan was pregnant, he knew that it was him who had pushed her away and missed out all these years.

How could he compensate for the years he had missed?

“Boy, why aren’t you at the back?” The recreational vehicle was spacious. Behind the driver’s seat was a couch. Shen Peichuan was half lying on it while looking at the maps. Lin Xichen was sitting beside him and looking out the window. When he heard Shen Peichuan’s words, he answered without turning his head, “I’m not sleepy, I don’t want to go.”

His sister was clinging onto Zong Jinghao. He did not want to see it; he did not feel comfortable to see it.
