Stealing Your Heart Chapter 326

Zong Jinghao stared at Lin Xinyan dumbfoundedly.

“You wanna know how I know so much about it?” Lin Xinyan continued, chuckling. “Actually I was there at the auction back then.”

She didn’t go to buy anything that day but to have a glimpse of the auction’s grand finale.

As a fashion designer, she needed a lot of inspiration.

Zong Jinghao was lost in thoughts. He had seen a figure similar to her at the jewelry auction three years ago. But by the time he had squeezed through the crowd to look for her, she was already nowhere to be seen. He had Guan Jing check the footage from the surveillance camera, but it just so happened that the surveillance system had malfunctioned on that day.

In other words, he wasn’t mistaken that day. It was her.

Lin Xinyan did a double-take. “You were the one who bought that ring?”

How could I forget that Zong Jinghao is a businessman?

Ever since 1947 when De Beers advertised diamonds with their famous slogan – “A Diamond is Forever”, diamonds had become the symbol of love.

To get married, there should be a diamond ring to show that you love a person because “A Diamond is Forever” simply meant that a couple’s marriage would last forever.

Buying a diamond ring for the person you love proved that your love was much more solid than a diamond ring. A stone after giving the value of “love” would become priceless, and at the same time, brought in great wealth to those who hyped it.

Lin Xinyan touched the ring in the box and said, “How evil.”

She wasn’t familiar with Wanyue’s business, and she didn’t know how many businesses Zong Jinghao had developed.

“Are you talking about me?” He hugged her waist from behind. “Why don’t you put it on?”

Lin Xinyan rejected, “I’m afraid I’ll get mugged.”

Not only was it too conspicuous on the hand, but a diamond of that size didn’t really suit her slender fingers.

“Hmm?” His voice echoed from his chest. With his arms tightening around her waist and her back sticking close to his chest, she could clearly hear the sound of his strong and powerful heartbeat.

Zong Jinghao removed the ring from the box and slipped it on her index finger after finding it unfit for her ring finger and middle finger. “Why are your fingers so thin?”

“It’s not that my fingers are too thin,” Lin Xinyan laughed. “The ring just doesn’t suit me.”

After a moment’s silence, Zong Jinghao suggested, “How about I find a craftsman and turn it into a necklace?”

“I don’t want,” she replied, knowing that it would still stand out regardless.

She would usually buy jewelry for herself, but they were mostly on the small and delicate side. As a fashion designer, she knew what suited her best.

He nibbled on her neck and asked, “What don’t you want?”

Lin Xinyan’s heart fluttered. She bit her lip and said, “I don’t want anything.”

Zong Jinghao paused, then bit her neck again in a punitive manner, causing Lin Xinyan to grunt in pain.

He had abstained himself from touching her last night because of her excuse of having a backache. Surely, he had overdone it that day, but she had promised to do it with him once a day.

“We have to do it twice today to make up for yesterday,” he smirked.

“Zong Jing… Argh!”

The man held her by the waist and flipped her over, taking her by surprise as he pinned her on the bed before she could finish her sentence.

Zong Jinghao grabbed the lower hem of her shirt and pulled it up in an attempt to take it off. “Don’t wear such clothes again.”

It was a hassle to remove them, and he would prefer those with buttons.
