Stealing Your Heart

Lin Xinyan smiled wryly. So that’s what it’s been about! I thought there was something wrong with the baby.

“You have to call me right away if you feel any pain,” the doctor reminded.

Lin Xinyan nodded. “Okay.”

The doctor was worried that Lin Xinyan would despise her child for being ugly. There was a video on the Internet a while ago about a pregnant woman crying as she walked. It was all because her baby looked hideous in the ultrasound scans.

That was enough to make the mother cry.

“You and Mr. Zong are both very good-looking, so there’s no way your child will turn out ugly. It’s just too young and hasn’t developed much yet. Don’t worry too much about it.”

Lin Xinyan smiled. “I won’t.”

It doesn’t matter how the baby looks. What matters most is that it’s healthy.

The doctor left to see another patient.

Zong Jinghao walked in to find Lin Xinyan beaming. “What are you smiling about?”

Instead of answering, Lin Xinyan pointed to the breakfast on the table. “This is yours. Eat up before it gets cold.”

As Zong Jinghao sat by the table and picked up a pair of chopsticks, Lin Xinyan asked him, “Will you be upset if our child turns out ugly?”

Zong Jinghao turned to look at her as though realizing why she was smiling. “It’s still my child no matter what,” he declared, “So what if it’s ugly?”

Lin Xinyan grinned. “So you’re not frustrated anymore?”

Zong Jinghao coughed lightly. That damned doctor just can’t keep things to himself.

“Who said I was frustrated? I’m happy.”

Lin Xinyan lay down. “Are you going out today?”

Zong Jinghao nodded. He had to take care of Gu Huiyuan’s matters, so he couldn’t stay behind.

Zhuang Zijin poured him a glass of water. “In that case, I’ll stay here and watch over her. I’ll leave when you come back.”

“She can’t be alone. Call
