Stealing Your Heart

Lin Xinyan was amused at his words that were almost childlike.

“I really want to put a mirror before you so you can see just how unkind you look right now.”

Zong Jinghao snorted in response. He took a towel and dried her feet with it.

She cocked her head to the side and asked, “Are you angry?”

Why isn’t he talking?

He suddenly tossed the towel aside and grabbed her ankles. Moving them onto the bed, he pinned her down with his weight. Lin Xinyan struggled while whispering furiously, “What are you doing? The kids are right here! Don’t wake them up!”

He raised a brow at her even as a wicked smirk curled his lips. His voice was low as he murmured, “They won’t wake up if you can be a little softer.”

Struck dumb by his words, it took Lin Xinyan a moment to start struggling again. “Why are you getting more and more shameless?” She was honestly worried that he would be controlled by his lust and actually do that, right beside the children.

Zong Jinghao bent his knees and used them to push her legs open wider. Now, she would be unable to close them. He was not overwhelmed by his desire just yet. Even if he were, he would not be so rash as to do something like that with his children right there.

He gazed down at her, taking in her beauty. She was not very old and her delicate features only made her seem that much younger. The skin of her face was like white porcelain, pale and smooth to the touch. He stroked her cheek gently as he muttered, “Yan, I really don’t like how he thinks of you.”

It was impossible for him to feel any shred of forgiveness for anyone who had dared to desire his wife.

“I’m still just an ordinary man. My woman can only belong to me and me alone. Nobody else is allowed to even think of you.”

Lin Xinyan could understand where he was coming from. If another woman had such thoughts about Zong Jinghao, she would be very unhappy too.

This man can be rather petty at times. I’d better explain myself before he overthinks things. ”I know. I only love you. All I feel for him is a moral obligation.”

Pausing, a bubble of laughter escaped her lips. “The more I interact with you, the more I realize just how different you are at home compared to outside.”

“Hmm? In what ways? Do tell.” He flipped over onto his side, careful to avoid pressing down on her abdomen.

“Let go of my legs first.”

He refused. “Not until you tell me.”

She twisted her head to look at him. “Your employees have probably never seen this shameless side of you, have they?”
