Stealing Your Heart

But Zong Jinghao didn’t answer her. He closed the door and strode towards her.

Now Lin Xinyan felt nervous. Her hands were trembling subconsciously as he came nearer.

Judging from his reaction, that could only mean the result of her checkup was not good.

“What are you worried about?” Zong Jinghao took her hand. “I’m hungry. Let’s eat something.”

But Lin Xinyan refused to budge and only stared at him.

Zong Jinghao sighed at her stubbornness. He knew she would never be at ease if he didn’t give her an answer.

Still holding her hand, Zong Jinghao led his wife to the sofa. According to Lin Xinyan’s checkup, the baby had to be delivered prematurely. It would be dangerous to wait until the initial due date, as her uterus lining was way too thin and would subject to uterine rupture. If that happened, both the mother and fetus would be in grave danger.

The doctor had given the same advice as the doctors in their home country. If she refused to give birth by the seventh month, then she had to stay home and rest. At the most, she must give birth by the eighth month.

“The doctor said our baby is growing healthily, so it’s not dangerous for him to be delivered prematurely-”

“So the baby still has to be born prematurely?” Lin Xinyan interrupted.

Zong Jinghao tightened his grip on her hand. “Don’t be worried, ok?”

Lin Xinyan composed herself and replied, “I’m not worried.”

She then stood up from the sofa and whined cutely. “Didn’t you say you’re hungry? Let’s go out and grab something!” Lin Xinyan uttered while playing with his hand.

She decided to bury all her emotions beneath her light-hearted façade.

But Zong Jinghao knew she was faking it but he didn’t want to expose her.

He was as worried as she was. After all, this concerned his wife and the baby’s safety. But he couldn’t show his emotions before her.

Lin Xinyan would only be more anxious if she saw him looking down and pessimistic.
