Stealing Your Heart Chapter 973

Zong Yanxi flinched and moved away from him, a little taken aback by the sudden intimacy.

Tawan, on the other hand, was unfazed by it. “Your hair is messy.”

She raised her hand to tuck the loose strands of hair behind her ear. “Thanks.”

Sorn glanced at the two of them and grinned, taking another bite from the sweetsop fruit in front of her. She noticed the beautifully-wrapped box on the table and asked, “Daddy, what’s inside that box?”

“Clothes,” Tawan replied.

“Who is it for?” Sorn asked.

When Tawan told her that it was for Zong Yanxi, Sorn grabbed Zong Yanxi’s arm and told her to open it.

Zong Yanxi squirmed in her seat. “I’ll rather not.”

“You should at least try it! What if you don’t like it?” Sorn insisted. “Give it a try!”

Zong Yanxi sighed and opened the box to reveal a black gown nestled inside.

She could not tell what brand it was from, but it was obvious that the material used to make the gown was one of a kind. As she moved it around, the hidden patterns on the pitch black fabric shimmered under the light.

“Put it on!” Sorn cheered, reaching out to stroke the fabric. “It’s so silky!”

Zong Yanxi flicked her forehead lightly. “Keep quiet, kid!”

“Huh?” Sorn asked, blinking in confusion.

“You’re a noisy little girl!” Zong Yanxi chided, pretending to be angry.

Sorn fell silent.

Before Zong Yanxi knew it, Sorn had clambered into Tawan’s lap with a hurt look on her face. “Daddy! She’s not cute at all!”

Zong Yanxi was speechless.
