Stealing Your Heart (Lin Xinyan) novel Chapter 1028

“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.

“You told me you were ugly. Are you really that ugly?”

“You can see now?” She hurriedly waved her hands in front of him and mumbled, “That can’t be. It should take a few days at least for you to regain your sight.”

Zong Yanchen lost his sight because scale powder from a butterfly had fallen into his eyes when he was in the mountains.

The butterfly species had bright colorful wings.

It was obvious that he hadn’t regain his sight when he didn’t respond to her. She asked, “You have yet to regain your sight. How do you even know I’m not ugly?”

Zong Yanchen merely smiled but kept quiet.

He would touch her face every night. Though it wasn’t very clear, he had a brief idea of how she looked by feeling her out with his fingertips.

Mu Yuan’er suddenly felt dejected as she was afraid he would be disappointed with how she looked.

She pressed her cheeks against his chest. “You must keep in mind how well I treated you no matter how I look.”

“I won’t forget.”

Zong Yanchen kissed her gently on her forehead.

Meanwhile, in town.

Wen Xiaoji said, “We’ve already searched this area. Why did you come in person when the higher-ups have sent so many people over?”

Zong Jinghao had a stern look on his face. “Would you be able to sit around when your son’s fate remains unknown?”

Wen Xiaoji was at a loss for words.
