Stealing Your Heart

“Are you angry?” Zong Jinghao asked.

“No.” Lin Xinyan shook her head, assuring her husband that she wasn’t angry. However, deep down, she was indeed frustrated.

Zhuang Zijin had brought them their breakfast, so Zong Jinghao lifted her out of the bed and brought her to the bathroom to carry out her morning routine.

By the time she finished brushing her teeth and washing her face, he brought her back to the table and helped her to the chair. However, Lin Xinyan told him, “I’m not in the mood for a meal. Please bring me back to the bed.”

As soon as Zong Jinghao placed her on the bed, Lin Xinyan tucked herself in and turned around with her back facing him. “You should finish the meal and get going. I’ll finish my portion once I’m awake.”

Zhuang Zijin heard her daughter’s demanding words. Therefore, she urged her, “You must be kidding me, right? You have literally been sleeping all day and night. Come over and finish your meal immediately. Otherwise, it will get cold soon.”

The woman wasn’t aware of the conflict between the duo. Hence, she approached her daughter in an attempt to persuade her.

“You’re aware that you’re not feeding yourself alone, aren’t you? You have to finish your meal for the child’s sake. Hurry up and finish your meal at once.”

Lin Xinyan remained silent, whereas Zong Jinghao stood right where he was, staring at her with a poker face.

Zhuang Zijin took a peek at them both and noticed that they seemed to be in the middle of a fight.

She had no idea who the one at fault was, but she told Zong Jinghao, “Are you guys fighting? I’m sure you’re aware of Yan’s condition, right? Why did you get into a fight with her?”

Zong Jinghao ignored her and stared at Lin Xinyan in silence, so Zhuang Zijin was certain the two were in the middle of a fight.

She was, after all, the one who had brought Lin Xinyan up ever since she was young. Naturally, Zhuang Zijin took Lin Xinyan’s side and reprimanded Zong Jinghao, “Are you seriously going to fight with Yan when she’s heavily pregnant? She’s pregnant with your child! How could you irritate her?”

“You shouldn’t have picked on her when she’s about to give birth!” Zhuang Zijin was harsh with her words and showed no signs of stopping at all.

Finally, Lin Xinyan couldn’t take it anymore because she was afraid Zhuang Zijin and Zong Jinghao would get into another conflict. She removed her blanket and said, “No! We’re not fighting! I’ll head over and finish my meal immediately!”

“Huh? If both of you aren’t fighting, why are you angry? Why do you refuse to complete your meal?” Zhuang Zijin probed further, confused.

What brings you to such a conclusion?”
