Stealing Your Heart Chapter 24
Zong Jinghao could not move in time, and he could only stare as Lin Xinyan fell onto him.
Her forehead knocked onto his chin, and it was painful. And her lips touched a shaped solid, a familiar yet foreign sensation.
For a moment, Lin Xinyan was stunned. Her rationality came back to her and she hurriedly got up. It was now then she realized that her lips had touched onto his Adam’s apple.
She held onto her aching forehead, her face was burning red.
From shame.
Zong Jinghao’s thoughts were also muddled up for a second after that moment. He slowly raised his eyes to look at her. “If I’m a thug, what are you?”
Without waiting for Lin Xinyan’s reply, he slowly sat up and adjusted his collar, intentionally tracing his finger across the place that she had just kissed him. His smile was cunning as he said, “We’re husband and wife. If you want to kiss, you can just tell me. I don’t mind.”
Lin Xinyan was rendered speechless.
Who wanted to kiss him?
That was just an accident!
“I would never want to kiss you!” Lin Xinyan turned and left; she wanted to leave the living room quickly.
Zong Jinghao sat motionless on the couch. He was angered by her last sentence.
“Who do you want to kiss then?”
He scoffed, “That man who impregnated you?”
In that moment, fear and humiliation bled all over her.
She did not want to talk about how she was impregnated.
She only felt heartache from hearing Zong Jinghao’s heartless words.
She had to stay strong, even when her heart felt like it was about to shatter. “Of course… of course I like the father of my child.”
Fantastic. This woman was amazing.
“I hope Ms. Lin hadn’t forgotten that she still owes me something.” Zong Jinghao stood up, brushed off the imaginary dust from his shirt, and raised his head slowly. He looked at Lin Xinyan, who froze by the door of the bedroom.
“I need a translator. Come to the office and start work by tomorrow.”
She had taken the contract; he would have a request in return.
That’s fine, that meant she no longer owed him anything else.
“Alright.” She answered, then pushed open the door to enter the room.
