Stealing Your Heart

“I know.” She didn’t dare move a muscle as she held her breath. The sound of her racing heart rang in her ear.

She felt extremely nervous at the moment but didn’t back away. She even made the first move by hooking her arms around his neck.

As for the rest of it, they allowed nature to run its course.

Rays of morning sun seeped through the curtains, lighting up the room.

Mu Yuan’er was fast asleep in Zong Yanchen’s arms.

It was eight in the morning when Mu Yuan’er felt ticklish on her face.

She stirred in her sleep and her eyes fluttered open. Her eyes blinked a few times to fully adapt to the light before being fully awake.

“You’re awake?” Zong Yanchen had yet to regain his sight. Hence, he could only touch her facial features.

Perhaps it was because Zong Yanchen was blind, she didn’t feel shy as she reached out to touch his face. He’s so handsome. She raised her head and kissed him on the lips, “Are you hungry?”

It was already past eight. They usually had breakfast at seven.

“Yes,” he said in a low voice soft with affection.

Mu Yuan’er reached for the towel. “I’ll go make breakfast for you…”

She was about to get off the bed when Zong Yanchen wrapped his arms around her and pulled her back into his arms.

“I’m going to make you breakfast.” Mu Yuan’er lightly struggled.

“I want to eat you.” Zong Yanchen tightened his arms around her. “You little liar.”

Mu Yuan’er was at a loss for words.
