Stealing Your Heart

Cheng Yuwen came back first before Lin Xinyan went up to the mountain. He arranged the two solid wood thousand squares shelf in the yard, with various wood carvings in it.

Lin Xichen’s eyes lit up as he saw them. He let go of Cheng Yuxiu’s hand and walked over to grab a wood-crafted pigeon. What surprised him was the legs, wings, and eyes could move on its own. The feathers of the pigeon were so lifelike.

“Wow, this is my first time seeing wooden carvings.” Perhaps boys are naturally more drawn towards toys, while girls aren’t. Lin Ruixi was much calmer compared to Lin Xichen. All she cared about was yummy food and fluffy soft toys. She could hardly find any other toys that she liked other than food and soft toys.

Cheng Yuwen had never been married before. He had been staying in the same place since Cheng Yuwen married into the Zong family. He passed his time by doing woodcarving. He carved all the wood carvings on the shelf. He spent a lot of time learning from scratch, and now he could master all types of animal wood carvings, be it the animals that flew in the sky, swam in the water, or ran on the ground. He could make all of them lifelike as if they were real.

Lin Xichen was overwhelmed by all the wood carvings before his eyes. He thought all the animals were so cute and lifelike. He couldn’t help but placed it onto his hands for a closer inspection.

Seeing Lin Xichen so happy, Cheng Yuwen laughed out loud.

“What is so fun about these?” Lin Ruixi said with a pouted mouth. She felt like all these carvings were prepared for the brother, and she had got nothing to play with.

The little girl pouted her mouth, looking very upset.

Lin Xinyan stroked her daughter’s hair and looked up at Cheng Yuxiu, “She just loves to compare with her brother.”

Cheng Yuxiu smiled at her and thought that it was the nature of the children. That was what made them so cute and naive, without any worries.

“Oh my, Ruixi was jealous of her brother?” Cheng Yuwen teased her in a loving manner. He looked amiable with the smile lines around his eyes and mouth.

Lin Ruixi pursed her pink lips, “You have prepared so many fun toys for my brother, while I have nothing at all.”

“Then what do you like? Cheng Yuwen asked.

Lin Ruixi thought about it while tilting her head, “I like to eat pudding, red bean cake and cantaloupe-flavored chocolate…”

It was all about food.

Lin Xinyan was speechless.

“This girl…” Lin Xinyan knew that her daughter was a glutton, but she never thought that even when others asked about her favorite toys, she could relate it to food as well.

“I don’t have anything that you mentioned just now. However, I do have…” He walked over to the parasol tree which leaves were pale yellow and lush.

There were two ropes, as thick as the whip, hanging down from the branches. At the end of the rope was an unknown object covered in red cloth.

“I have prepared some toy for Ruixi as well but I am not sure if Ruixi will like it.”

The little girl was so excited that she ran towards it, “What is it? Let me see.”

“You may open up the cloth yourself.” Cheng Yuwen worried that the little girl would not like the surprise that he had prepared.

Lin Ruixi grabbed the red silk cloth and pulled it down. The red cloth then fell to the ground, revealing a big white swan before her. The wings of the white swan were tied with ropes on each side. The body was dug out in the middle making it perfect for sitting. It was a seat with a backrest.
