Stealing Your Heart

Zong Jinghao froze, then he looked up at her and raised an eyebrow. “What do you mean by that?”

“You know perfectly well what I am talking about.”

“No, I really don’t.” He swung his feet up and lay down in bed. Lin Xinyan caught hold of his arm and said disapprovingly, “Zong Jinghao, you’ve been getting more ridiculous as you grow older.”

Seeing how stubborn she was, Zong Jinghao knew that she must’ve found out about Zong Yanchen’s condition. He sighed and said, “Well, our son is fine, isn’t he? Don’t bother investigating anymore.”

“When you said you were going to the office, you were actually looking for him, weren’t you? When did you learn to lie?” Lin Xinyan was furious. Her son became blind and nearly lost his life, and she had been one of the last few people to know about it.

“I’m his mother, and I gave birth to his. Don’t you think I have a right to know?”

“I was worried that you would be worried.” Zong Jinghao took her hand. “I won’t do this again. You must be tired after today, right? I’ll give you a shoulder massage.”

As he spoke, he pulled Lin Xinyan onto the bed.

Lin Xinyan pulled away from him. “Ugh, don’t pull this trick on me.”

“Well, what do you want me to do? It was in the past. Even if I was in the wrong, you can’t continue to blame me for it, can you?”

His words made Lin Xinyan angry. Was he abusing the fact that she couldn’t stay angry at him for long to behave so recklessly.

“I don’t plan to forgive you.” Lin Xinyan stood up abruptly. Zong Jinghao didn’t move away in time—her head bumped violently into his nose as she got up from the bed. The pain made him wince a little. He felt something running down his face—when he reached up to touch it, he realized that it was blood.

Lin Xinyan was holding onto her head. Her forehead hurt from bumping his nose, too.

“You…” She was ready to yell at him again when she saw the blood streaks on his face. Shocked, she exclaimed, “Are you alright?”

Zong Jinghao raised his head to staunch the bleeding. “I’m having a nose bleed.”

Lin Xinyan grabbed some tissues and dabbed it across his face. “Go into the bathroom and wash the blood off first.”
