Stealing Your Heart Chapter 14

“What is it?” Lin Xinyan was confused.

Zong Jinghao stood up from the chair and walked up to her against the light, taking steady and slow steps. Finally, he stood in front of Lin Xinyan and said condescendingly, “For as long as we’re still husband and wife, don’t simply make out with other men.”

Regardless of the reason to get married, she must not cuckold him during their marriage!

This was his limit, and his dignity as a man!

Lin Xinyan didn’t react for a long time. With whom did I make out?

She instinctively retorted, “Aren’t you spending the night here with another woman? Do you want me to ask you to do the same too as a wife?”

Zong Jinghao’s frown deepened. “I didn’t sleep with her.”

Lin Xinyan was stunned for a moment. Bai Zhuwei had clearly spent the night here last night.

Who would believe that he didn’t sleep with her?

Hold on. Sleep with her or not, what does it have to do with me?

The expression on Zong Jinghao’s face changed. What am I doing?

Lin Xinyan didn’t want to get in a fight with him, so she softened her tone. “I’ll try my best to do what you ask me to do. So I…”

She waved the document in her hand, and her meaning was clear.

Zong Jinghao replied drily in acknowledgment, with a bit of anger in his tone. He wasn’t angry at Lin Xinyan, but at himself!

Why should I explain myself to her?!

I must be insane!

Such unusual behavior made him very uncomfortable and even feels disgusted!

Lin Xinyan got hired for the job at the restaurant, so she wanted to finish this document that needed to be translated as soon as possible.

By 12 o’clock in the morning, she had only finished half of it, and was already very sleepy.

In order to refresh herself, she brought the document to the living room. The whole villa was quiet at this hour, and Zong Jinghao and Aunt Yu should be sleeping soundly now.

Putting the document on the coffee table, she went to the kitchen to pour herself a glass of warm water. Then, she put down the glass, and returned to the living room to sit on the carpet before continuing with the translation on the coffee table.

Zong Jinghao was thirsty, so he went downstairs to get water in the middle of the night. When he saw that Lin Xinyan was still translating documents, he frowned slightly, but didn’t say anything. Lin Xinyan saw him, but also didn’t take the initiative to greet him.

Zong Jinghao was used to having no outsiders at home. So when he saw the glass of water on the table, he picked it up and drank it.

“Umm—”

Lin Xinyan wanted to remind him that she had used the glass earlier, but Zong Jinghao had already used it, so she didn’t know how to finish the rest of her sentence.

After taking a look at her, Zong Jinghao seemed to have understood her mid-sentence pause. His gaze was fixated on her face for a few seconds, and then he lowered his head. Under the bright light, he found that there was a partly-overlapping faint lip print on the rim of the glass.

Half of it was the place where he had just drunk the water.

It was obvious that the place where he had just drunk from was used by someone. Combined with Lin Xinyan’s reaction just now, he was sure that it was her.

With her head down, Lin Xinyan pretended that she didn’t see anything, and that nothing happened.

However, she felt her face inexplicably warm.

They were very unfamiliar with each other, so sharing a glass was overly intimate.

Although he didn’t mean it, Lin Xinyan still felt embarrassed.

Moving his lips, Zong Jinghao licked his lower lip with the tip of his tongue. He didn’t know what he was thinking either, so he simply poured the remaining water in his mouth.

Putting down the empty glass, he walked over and looked up at the clock. It was already one o’clock. “Aren’t you going to sleep yet?”

Lin Xinyan drooped her head and didn’t even dare to look up. “I’m not sleepy yet.”
