Stealing Your Heart Chapter 142
Embraced by Lin Xinyan, Lin Ruixi seemed to have heard him while she was in a daze, and murmured, “I want.”
She wants daddy.
The little one was too tired and didn’t cling to him. Lin Xinyan covered her ears so that she couldn’t hear him speak again while patting her gently to sleep.
Lin Ruixi leaned closer to Lin Xinyan.
Lin Xinyan hugged her tightly.
Zong Jinghao turned around and stared at Lin Ruixi’s tiny hand. Her hands looked fair-skinned, soft and chubby, and was put on Lin Xinyan’s chests.
Even though he didn’t touch them at all, ripples of excitement kept fluttering through him, as if he could feel them by just looking at them.
When their eyes met, Lin Xinyan pulled the quilt to cover Lin Ruixi’s tiny hands. She then closed her eyes and pretended to be asleep.
Even though she wasn’t sleepy, she thought that it would be the best for her to pretend to be asleep as she didn’t want to have any verbal or non-verbal communication with Zong Jinghao.
Zong Jinghao heaved a long sigh. Why would he have such a miserable life?
He couldn’t even touch her even though they had registered for marriage.
He turned around and lay on his back while staring at the chandelier on the ceiling with bitterness and disappointment.
Lin Xinyan initially pretended to be asleep, but after a while she really fell asleep. On the other hand, Zong Jinghao kept moving around and couldn’t fall asleep.
He suddenly stood up and casted a sideways glance at the pair of mother and daughter who were sleeping soundly.
Felt bitter, he said to himself, “Are you two here to take your debit? I must have killed your entire family in my past life, and so you are here to torture me now.”
After all, he was a normal man who hadn’t touched a woman for a long time. He could feel his surge of desire when he saw Lin Xinyan lying on the bed.
He heaved a long sigh and got out of the bed to take a shower, trying to extinguish his surging evil desire.
Zong Jinghao could only fall asleep at daybreak.
When he was awake, Lin Xinyan had already left to make her final preparation for the opening of her shop tomorrow.
Zong Jinghao didn’t even have the breakfast prepared by Aunt Yu.
Aunt Yu asked Zhuang Zijin if she could bring Lin Xichen along to the supermarket and said, “Don’t worry. He will be very safe as the driver will be with us all the time.”
Since they lived together, Zhuang Zijin found it difficult to refuse her request. She agreed to it and added, “Please come home as soon as possible as the wounds on Xichen’s head haven’t fully recovered.”
“Sure. Is there anything you want to buy? I can buy it for you.” Aunt Yu said delightedly.
“Nothing.” Zhuang Zijin smilingly replied.
Sitting on the couch, Lin Xichen looked at Aunt Yu with his rolling eyes. Why would she still want to bring him to the supermarket even though she knows that he is injured?
He could sense that something doesn’t seem right.
Aunt Yu had thought about it last night. After Lin Xinyan and Zong Jinghao have left the house, she will bring Lin Xichen to Zong Qifeng’s house.
She always felt troubled as long as she hadn’t ascertained whether the two kids were Zong Jinghao’s own children.
It troubled her so much that she always had no appetite to eat and couldn’t sleep.
“I’m ready. Let’s go.” Aunt Yu said smilingly, “Let me pick you up since you still have wounds on your head.”
“It’s fine. I can walk myself.” Lin Xichen was curious to know what Aunt Yu was up to.
Even though he was only here for a short time, he was confident that she wasn’t a bad person and wouldn’t put him in danger.
“Alright.” Aunt Yu held his hand and walked to the door to change his shoes for him before leaving the house.
When they got into the car, the driver asked, “Going to the supermarket?”
“No. To the old villa.”
The driver turned around to look at her and Lin Xichen. Then, he sat tight and quietly started the car, as if he understood what she’s up to.
Lin Xichen deliberately asked, “Where is the old villa?”
“It’s your grandpa’s house.” Aunt Yu’s instinct told her that Lin Xichen and Lin Ruixi were Zong Jinghao’s children.
