Stealing Your Heart

“I haven’t taken a bite of it yet,” Zong Yanxi said intentionally. “Are you worried that I might poison you?”

“Of course not. There’s no reason for me to say no.” Jiang Mohan pulled the cake towards him.

They both knew each other’s secrets, but neither one exposed the other. They were both testing the waters, with one trying to mend a broken relationship and the other plotting revenge.

“Here, use this.” Zong Yanxi offered him a spoon. “Since I’m being so thoughtful, you had better finish the cake.”

“If I finish, will you be my girlfriend?”

“I’m sorry, you’re not my type,” she refused instantly.

“What kind of men do you like then?”

“Like my boyfriend. Someone who’s young and gentle. Oh, he has to have the right height as well. You’re too tall for me,” Zong Yanxi described her ideal man according to Gu Xian’s appearance. “Also, I don’t like married men. I have mysophobia.”

Jiang Mohan had no idea how to respond to that. “Ms. Lin… I know you are…”

“President Jiang.” Zong Yanxi quickly cut him off as she didn’t want to change the relationship between them. If she were to face him as her past self, she would not be able to keep her cool and would interrogate him in a very emotional manner.

That wasn’t the outcome she wanted, not because she still had feelings for him, but because she’s tired of being angry with him.

“Please finish the cake,” she smiled.

Jiang Mohan pursed his lips, unable to understand why he had become so passive when he was in control of the situation moments earlier.

On the other hand, if this were her punishment for him, he would gladly accept it.

With Zong Yanxi staring at him, he finished the whole cake. Halfway through the dessert, he could feel his body reacting to the mango. His arms began to itch and his heart began to race.

“Are you feeling unwell?” Zong Yanxi deliberately asked. Even though Jiang Mohan did his best to hide his allergic reaction, he could not conceal his expression. “Why don’t I book you a room?”
