Stealing Your Heart

When he pushed the door open, the room was empty, and she wasn’t on the bed.

He wasn’t surprised, as if he knew that Sorn surely wouldn’t be in her room. He turned around and came up to Zong Yanxi’s room. When he wanted to knock on it, it came to his mind that it was rather late now. After leaving his hand in the air for two seconds, he withdrew his hand and decided not to disturb her.

“You’re back?”

Once Tawan turned around, Zong Yanxi opened the door and stood next to it.

Since she was in an unfamiliar room, she slept lightly and was easily woken up by any movement.

“Did I wake you up?” Tawan turned around and continued, “Or you couldn’t sleep well here?”

She acknowledged what he said by lowering her eyes and remaining silent.

Even if she were tired, she could hardly sleep soundly in an unfamiliar environment.

“Is your leg better now?” He shifted his gaze toward her ankle.

She unknowingly withdrew her leg as she answered, “It’s much better now. The swelling has reduced, and it doesn’t hurt anymore.”

“Thank you for taking care of Sorn for me.”

“Don’t mention it. Besides, you have taken me in.” Zong Yanxi continued smilingly, “Since you came home late, have you had your dinner?”

Tawan replied to her that he hadn’t had any food.

Coincidentally, Sally, who had finished preparing the dishes, came over to them and said, “Sir, dinner is ready.”

“Would you like to eat something together?” He invited, “It’s time to have some supper anyway.”

However, she flashed him a smile and rejected tactfully, “There is a saying in our country, ‘Don’t talk during meals’. It means that when we shouldn’t talk when we are chewing food. Also, we should go to bed at the appropriate time and avoid disturbing others. Since it’s time for me to go to bed, I’m afraid I can’t keep you company while you have dinner.”
