Zong Jinghao stiffened before he turned around. “Why are you upstairs?”
“Why can’t I be upstairs?” She leaned forward to look at the basin. Why does it seem like he’s scared of me looking at it? Zong Jinghao moved to block her vision again. “We have a guest today. Shouldn’t you be keeping her company?”
“That’s what your daughter is doing.” Lin Xinyan raised her head to look at him. The more he tried to hide it from her, the more she wanted to look. “Why are you acting like you have something to hide?”
Zong Jinghao cleared his throat. “What’s there for me to hide?”
“If you’re not hiding something, then move aside.” Lin Xinyan pushed him aside to see the undergarments she bought today soaking in the basin.
Zong Jinghao was silent.
It was a few seconds of awkward tension.
Abruptly, Lin Xinyan laughed.
With a grave expression, Zong Jinghao asked, “What are you laughing at?”
Lin Xinyan just kept laughing as she held onto the doorframe.
Oh my. He’s just too cute.
Zong Jinghao pursed his lips in silence.
“Get out!” Even his brows were furrowed now.
Lin Xinyan tucked away the smile, but she was still partially giggling as she said, “I’ll stop it.”
Not wanting to bother with her anymore, Zong Jinghao turned to continue washing.
It should have been a romantic situation with his hands holding a piece of women’s lingerie. However, there were no traces of it. Lin Xinyan was only surprised that he was washing her undergarment.
Warmth trickled into her heart.
She wrapped her arms around his thin waist from behind and put her forehead against his back. Zong Jinghao stiffened, but he was quick to return to normal. Turning to glance at her, he said, “Can you wear this and show me tomorrow?”
Tightening her hold around his waist, Lin Xinyan hummed a quiet “yes” as her reply.
It was a reply that Zong Jinghao smiled at.
My efforts haven’t gone to waste.
