Stealing Your Heart

He added immediately, “Name something in nature.”

Zong Yanxi had no clue at all. This is so difficult.

“Uncle Shao, give me an easy one this time. I haven’t gotten even one right,” she whined with a pout on her face.

“This one’s already pretty easy,” Shao Yun patted her head. “You need to think.”

“All she thinks about is food. She’s such a pig,” Zong Yanchen said while fanning the flame.

Zong Yanxi’s anger rose immediately. “You’re the pig! Your family is full of pigs!”

The silence in the living room was deafening. Suddenly, waves of laughter rang out, with Shao Yun and Cheng Yuwen laughing the most heartily.

This was because they were the only ones in the living room who were not of the Zong family.

Zong Yanchen shook his head and sighed. My sister is really a fool.

Zong Yanxi had only said that because she was provoked by Zong Yanchen. She regretted it as soon as those words left her mouth. Looking around at everyone’s expressions, she felt embarrassed and tried to hide behind her father.

Zong Jinghao patted her back. “It’s okay.”

She still had her head buried in him, silent.

“Shall I help you with the riddles?” He asked in an attempt to comfort her.

Hearing this, she immediately lifted her head. “Really?”

Her mood sure changes quickly.

He smiled, exasperated. “Yes.”

“Then tell me, what’s the answer to ‘voiceless it cries, wingless flutters, toothless bites, mouthless mutters’?” Being a determined kid, Zong Yanxi wanted to get at least one riddle right.

Zong Jinghao tried to give her a hint. “I know it sounds like an animal, and while animals are part of nature, you have to think outside the box.”

“I know!” Zong Yanchen got the answer with just a single hint. “It’s wind!” He grinned.

Zong Yanxi glared at Zong Yanchen. “I hate you!”
