Stealing Your Heart

Zong Jinghao was confused by her sudden remark.

He lowered his head and gazed at her. “Huh?”

She looked up at his face that was so close to hers. She could feel their warm breath mingling together. At the same time, she reached out to his jaw and rubbed the stubbles on it. Surprisingly, it did not feel as prickly as expected.

“Do you think I should change my surname?” In fact, she did not feel like doing it.

Having listened to Zong Qifeng’s advice, she decided to forget all about Wen Qing, Wen Xian, and even Zhuang Ziyi.

She made up her mind to focus on leading a peaceful life with Zong Jinghao in the future.

Snuggling up to him, she pressed her cheeks against his chest to listen to his strong heartbeats.

“What’s inside you will remain the same no matter which surname you use.” He knew she would have already changed her surname long ago if she had the actual intention of doing so.

She was the biological child of Wen Xian and Zhuang Ziyi. No matter what surname she carried, it could not change the blood that ran in her.

Zong Jinghao drew her into a tight embrace. He didn’t want her to be bothered by all the disputes and dramas that had happened in the past.

Lin Xinyan understood what he meant. Indeed, she was still the same person no matter what surname she used. All of a sudden, she was freed from the quandary and was enlightened because of his advice.

Twining her slender arm around his waist, she confessed, “I was so sad when I had to leave you back then. I missed you terribly during our separation. I’ve been feeling guilty toward you, but I don’t want our relationship to be tainted by feelings other than love. So, I’ll get rid of the guilt from now on and focus on giving you all my love.”

They would lead a simple life free from all the grudges and feuds.

He lowered his head and planted a kiss on her forehead. Grazing his lips against her skin, he mumbled a response in agreement.

“Do you have a dream holiday destination?” His voice was barely audible.
