Stealing Your Heart Chapter 48
He moved closer to her. “From now on, if you dare to suspect me indiscriminately again—” He stared at her lips with his deep gaze, and bit it.
There was a sudden pain, as the blood taste spread in her mouth.
“From now on, I’ll punish you in this way every time you wrongly accuse me. Is it fair?”
Lin Xinyan stared blankly at the man in front of her. She couldn’t understand all his strange behaviors.
“Do you know what you are doing?”
Zong Jinghao was rendered speechless. Everything that happened after meeting this woman caught him off guard, and made him lose control, becoming less like himself.
He knew it clearly deep down that this woman wasn’t good. She wasn’t pure and didn’t have self-respect.
Yet, such a broken woman aroused his interests, and made him feel like a real man.
He would have normal physiological reactions to her.
He hid his emotions deep inside, while he appeared calm.
He chuckled and asked, “What about you? You risked your life and lunged forward to block the knife for me. Are you—”
While speaking, he leaned in. When Lin Xinyan moved away, he continued to move closer to her. They were so physically close that the quiet, soft and delicate smile on his face couldn’t be ignored. “In love with me?”
That’s why you rushed forward recklessly when the danger comes?
In fact, he was shocked to see her rushing over the moment he turned around.
Looking away, Lin Xinyan refused to look at him. “You’re so good at making jokes, Mr. Zong. Will I fall in love with you after knowing you for only a few days?”
If it weren’t for the fact that she suspected that he was the father of her child, she would certainly not be so impulsive.
She cherished her life very much. She had to live well for the sake of her mother and her child.
Zong Jinghao didn’t get angry either, as he leaned back on the sofa, smirking. “What if you fall in love with me at first sight? We can never be certain about love.”
He seemed to be talking to Lin Xinyan, but also to himself.
Lin Xinyan abruptly clenched her hands that were placed on her legs, but calmly said, “I don’t believe in love at first sight.”
After that, she got up to pour herself a glass of water, trying to ignore this topic. They were initially two strangers, but fate brought them to live under the same roof and talk about the most inexplicable thing in the world—love. How ridiculous and funny?
While drinking water, Lin Xinyan looked at the piano that was placed by the floor-to-ceiling window through her glass, feeling sad.
The next day, Lin Xinyan went to visit Zhuang Zijin at the hospital. She was awake this time, and recognized Lin Xinyan at first glance, so she refused to let go of her hand after holding it.
“Yan, you finally came to see me. I’m very happy. I miss you so much.” Zhuang Zijin held her hands tightly, as if fearing that she would disappear once she let go.
Lin Xinyan was happy that Zhuang Zijin was so clear-headed. “I won’t leave. I’ll bring you out after you get better.”
After the agreement with Zong Jinghao ended, she would buy a small house and live with her mother.
“Why doesn’t Doctor He come to see me these days? Did you have a fight?” Zhuang Zijin roughly knew what He Ruize was thinking.
She liked him very much and recognized his characters as well.
Moreover, his profession was a doctor.
It would be good if Lin Xinyan could be with He Ruize.
It was just that Lin Xinyan was pregnant with a child whose father was unknown.
The thought of this child aggravated Zhuang Zijin.
“He has something to do, so he may not come back for a while.” Lin Xinyan looked down slightly. He Ruize promised to help her find out what happened that night, so he should be in Country A now.
