Stealing Your Heart Chapter 558
Lin Xinyan suddenly stopped Zong Jinghao. She wanted to ask about Su Zhan, but she decided not to.
“Hmm?” Zong Jinghao turned back to look at her.
“Nothing. Go get changed.” Lin Xinyan smiled.
He could guess what she wanted to ask. Yet, he didn’t expose her as he didn’t want to talk about a person who was also missing.
While Zong Jinghao was cleaning himself up on the second floor, Lin Xinyan opened the fully stocked fridge. Since the kids and she were now back, Aunt Yu took the chance to stock up in case they were hungry. She scanned through everything in the fridge and took out the ingredients.
While waiting for the water to boil, she cut the meat into slices and marinated with cornstarch and eggs, which would tenderize the meat. She then cut the peppers and tomatoes into cubes and washed the vegetables.
On the second floor, Zong Jinghao had changed into his pajamas. Since the clothes were made from silk, he didn’t feel hot even when they were long-sleeved. He put on his white indoor slippers and went to check on the twins, who were already sound asleep. The whole mansion was quiet, except for the sounds coming from the kitchen.
The man stood in the dining, in a corner where he could watch his woman cooking him a meal in the kitchen. He watched her quietly, something that he was fond of as it could warm his heart.
All Zong Jinghao wanted was to live a simple life with his wife and children by his side. All he ever asked for was a person who would love him and make him a simple bowl of noodles from time to time.
As Lin Xinyan was about to cook the noodles, he hugged her from behind. The woman jumped in surprised and turned around, brushing her nose across Zong Jinghao’s cheek. She could smell the shampoo from his body, and it was a pleasant smell.
“I’ll be done soon.”
Instead of letting go, Zong Jinghao moved his hands to her belly and gently touched it. He then rested his head on her shoulder as he watched her cook. “Then, I’ll wait here.”
“How am I supposed to cook like this?” Lin Xinyan turned to glare at him.
“I don’t care.” All he wanted was to hug her.
Lin Xinyan let out a sigh as she couldn’t win over an argument against him. “It’s not as good as Aunt Yu’s, but it should satisfy your stomach.”
“Anything you make is a delicacy to me.” Zong Jinghao smiled and kissed her on her cheek.
She didn’t have the leisure to chat with him and put the last ingredient in. her husband was still hugging her, locking her on the spot. “Let me go and wait outside?”
Zong Jinghao finally let go of her, but he didn’t leave. Instead, he pulled her aside and said, “I’ll plate it.”
He then opened the cabinet and took a small bowl out. Lin Xinyan raised a brow and asked, “Are you sure you’re going to use that bowl?”
Zong Jinghao looked at his bowl and found nothing weird. “Why? We usually use this bowl, right?”
Lin Xinyan deeply sighed and took the bowl from him. “This, is a rice bowl. You need a bigger one for noodles. You can’t leave the noodles in the pot for too long either since it will get soggy.”
She put the small bowl back and took a bigger one out.
Zong Jinghao received the bowl with a grin and plated the noodles.
