Stealing Your Heart

At that moment, tears welled up in Zong Qifeng’s eyes as he was reluctant to leave his grandchildren behind.

They were undeniably adorable but he had run out of time to watch them grow up.

“Grandpa, it’s the Mid-Autumn festival today. Grandma Yu and Grandma have prepared a feast. My teacher says that we should be having mooncakes as a family during this festival. So, do you want to have some?” Zong Yanxi leaned towards Grandpa’s ear and asked.

Zong Qifeng inquired, “What flavors are there?”

“Erm… on the box, I see there’s salted egg, mixed nuts, ham…”

After rambling on a while, Zong Yanxi finally asked, “So Grandpa, which one would you like?”

Zong Qifeng suddenly recalled that today was Mid-Autumn’s festival and it was to be celebrated.

How can one not have mooncakes today?

He chose mixed nuts.

When Lin Xinyan said she would get it, Zong Yanxi stopped her and wanted to fetch it herself. After which, she ambled out and returned with a piece of mooncake. Laying on the bed, she remarked, “This is too big for you to chew. Let me make it smaller.”

Zong Yanxi broke the mooncake in half and exposed the fillings inside. There were walnuts, almonds, sesame seeds, melon seeds…

Pinching a small portion, she put it into Grandpa’s mouth. She said, “Grandpa, try this…”

Zong Qifeng opened his mouth and took a bite.

“Is it good?” Zong Yanxi inquired gleefully. When she smiled, her eyebrows would be all curled up. Zong Qifeng nodded and replied, “It’s delicious.”

Zong Yanchen helped him to some water as he was worried Zong Qifeng’s throat would be dry from the mooncake.

Zong Qifeng stopped after taking two sips…

His face grew increasingly pale while his eyes had turned so cloudy that they had lost their shine.
