Stealing Your Heart

The Chief of Public Relations left the office and closed the door.

Zong Jinghao walked over to her. “I think she has a point. Why don’t we take this opportunity—”

“Is now a good time?” Lin Xinyan cut him off. “Don’t even bring up the fact that you still have so much to take care of; I can’t put on a wedding dress with this belly of mine.”

“I’ll get them to make a bigger dress. Besides, getting Gu Bei punished by the law doesn’t mean we can’t hold our wedding, right?” Zong Jinghao had made up his mind. He didn’t want anyone else to misunderstand, and he wanted to give her and the children their rightful place.

The children would be attending elementary school soon. There’d be speculation if their identities were unclear.

“But—”

“Listen to me this time.” The man was unusually adamant and didn’t take no for an answer. “You may not care what others think of you, but you’ll have to consider the kids. They need to face everyone with a clear identity.”

Lin Xinyan looked down. She understood Zong Jinghao’s intentions, but Qin Ya was still in the process of recovering, and they hadn’t taken care of the matter involving Gu Bei. It really didn’t seem like the right time to hold a wedding now.

Still, Zong Jinghao had a point. The children needed a solid identity and place. She didn’t mind people saying things about her, but talking about her children was unacceptable.

This would only bring suffering to the kids and affect them psychologically.

She lowered her gaze. “I’ll leave everything to you.”

“Okay,” Zong Jinghao replied gently while twirling a strand of her hair. “I’ll get my dad to pick a good date for us.”
