Stealing Your Heart

Zong Yanchen knew what that box was and he had pledged never to touch stuff like that in the future because he had been severely admonished by Mommy the last time he took it.

However, his sister had no clue about the nature of the pretty box. She was mesmerized by the attractive packaging of the box that was placed on the shelf just next to the checkout counter. She wanted to buy it many times but was stopped by Mommy. This time, however, she was sure Daddy would buy it for her because he doted on her a lot.

Therefore, she decided to take a few of the pretty boxes and put them into the shopping trolley.

When she noticed the way her father was staring at her, she asked him curiously, “Is there anything wrong?”

At that juncture, the cashier pushed his spectacles upward on his nose and glanced at the boxes of condoms Zong Jinghao was holding. “Sir, would you please hurry up? There’s a long line behind you.”

The cashier secretly complained in his mind, wondering why Zong Jinghao hesitated about paying for them after having already put them into his trolley.

Ignoring the cashier’s reminder and his impatient glance, Zong Jinghao put the boxes of condoms back onto the shelf.

All this while, the little girl had always been given everything she desired by her father, who had never rejected her requests.

“Daddy, I want this.” Zong Yanxi pointed at the boxes of condoms placed on the shelf.

It was the first time Zong Jinghao did not respond to his daughter’s coquettish act with a smile and a hug. Silently, he took out all the remaining stuff in the trolley and placed them on the counter. After making payment, he put everything back into the trolley. Carrying the little girl with one arm, he pushed the trolley with the other. They then took the elevator to the parking lot on the top floor.

All this while, Zong Yanchen followed them obediently.

Zong Yanxi felt restless and apprehensive. Her bright and sparkling eyes were now covered with a sheen of moisture but she dared not shed a tear.

Deep down inside she was seized by an intense fear; it was the first time her father ever showed her such a cold expression.

She was worried he might start hating her.

When they arrived at the parking lot, Zong Jinghao carried his daughter into his car and loaded all the groceries into the trunk. Zong Yanchen got into the car and glanced at his sister, letting out a barely audible sigh.

Why doesn’t she learn from her mistakes? The little girl’s hands had been smacked by Lin Xinyan several times before, as she tried to take those pretty boxes from the shelf. From then on, she was deterred from touching them.
