Stealing Your Heart

Zong Yanchen was stunned. He was joking around with her just a moment ago. But why did it feel like she was teasing him instead?

“The stars are very bright tonight. Let’s gaze at the stars here in the courtyard after you regain your sight, ok?” Mu Yuan’er raised her head and stared at the beautiful night sky. “You don’t get to see this kind of night sky in the city, right?”

She turned to face Zong Yanchen. “Are you from the city?”

Zong Yanchen nodded, frankly. “Yes.”

“Who else is in your family?” Mu Yuan’er asked.

“There’s my Dad, Mom, little sister, and little brother.” Zong Yanchen reached out to caress her head. “They’ll be your family too in the future.”

“That means you’re the oldest in the family then?” Mu Yuan’er laughed. “Will I be referred to as sister-in-law if I marry you?”

He smiled a tender smile. “Of course.”

Mu Yuan’er covered her mouth and smiled. “Will they like me?”

“They will. They’re all very nice people.”

Mu Yuan’er tilted her head as she gave it some thought. “I will also take good care of them.”

Zong Yanchen laughed. “You’re taking care of others when you’re not that old yourself.”

Mu Yuan’er replied with a grin, “Because I’m their sister-in-law.”
