Stealing Your Heart

Lin Ruixi grinned widely, exposing a row of dazzling white teeth. It was as though she enjoyed having her saliva wiped away by Zong Jinghao.

When Lin Xinyan finally walked out of the bathroom in her pajamas, she saw Zong Jinghao occupying most of the bed. Meanwhile, Lin Xichen was cast aside in the corner of the bed like a pathetic little bug while he watched Zong Jinghao and Lin Ruixi behaving affectionately.

She walked over to hug her son, then she took his tablet and put it on the table. “It’s time to sleep,” she said.

Lin Xichen sighed lightly. I thought I could sleep with Mommy tonight. Who knew Ruixi and daddy would be here as well? How are we all going to fit on one bed?

Is it so hard for me to spend one night alone with Mommy?

“Ruixi and I will sleep in the middle,” Lin Xichen suggested.

He planned to let his sister sleep with him in the middle so Zong Jinghao and Lin Xinyan would be separated.

Lin Ruixi didn’t have the same intentions. She didn’t mind any kind of sleeping arrangements as long as her parents were sleeping on the same bed.

Zong Jinghao glanced at his son but did not reveal his thoughts. He then lay down on the bed with Lin Ruixi.

Since both the kids were sleeping in the middle, Zong Jinghao and Lin Xinyan were separated on opposite ends of the bed.

Whenever Ruixi can’t sleep, she would usually pat my chest. In the past, she had the habit of touching Xinyan when she slept. However, since she started spending time with her grandmother, she got rid of this habit.

She probably won’t hold either of us to sleep anymore, but she might still do it out of muscle memory.

When Lin Ruixi’s tender hands suddenly rubbed against Zong Jinghao’s body, he panicked and grabbed her hands. He then said gently, “It’s alright, I’m here.”

The little girl fluttered her eyes and said, “Your muscles are so hard, daddy.”

Mommy and grandmother’s muscles are always soft, but Daddy’s muscles are not soft at all.

Zong Jinghao was rendered speechless by his daughter’s remarks.

“Go to sleep. Don’t say such silly things,” Lin Xichen chided as he patted Lin Ruixi’s back.
