Stealing Your Heart Chapter 945


    The ne flew across the sky, leaving a contrail.


    Zong Yanxi did not inform anyone of her return, not even Zhuang Jiawen, whom she had always kept in


    touch with.


    She knew where her parents lived, so she hailed a taxi and went directly to their residence after getting


    off the ne.


    It was already nighttime. She was beyond exhausted, for she had not taken any rest after dealing with


    Jiang Mohan.


    Of course, she did this on purpose so her parents would not be too mad at her when they saw her


    weary face.


    She hoped that upon seeing her haggardness, her parents would not ask her to exin the past.


    Shortly after, the taxi came to a halt in front of a small river. She paid the driver and got out of the car.


    To get to the other side, she had to board a small boat. Of course, the river also came with a bridge for


    that purpose, but the bridge was quite a distance away and she had no energy left to walk.


    She lifted her wrist to look at the time. It’s a little after eight. I still can board the boat. She was familiar


    with the boat schedule because she had taken it before.


    Unfortunately, when she nced at the river, no boats were in sight.


    Did I remember it wrongly?


    She let out a sigh. I guess I still have to walk to the bridge. Though she was worn out, that was the only


    option she had right now.


    Both sides of the river were paved with verdant and neatly trimmedwns; there were banana trees


    everywhere. The weather here was much hotterpared to where she came from.


    It was nighttime and she was sweating after walking for just a short while. She still had ways to go


    before reaching the bridge.


    She decided to take a break in the middle of her walk, and took out her phone. Her heart ached as


    Jiang Mohan’s face suddenly shed across her mind.


    Though she seemed tranquil, it was actually difficult for her to erase her feelings for him. After all, she


    had loved him even before they were married.


    She was brave and gave him her whole heart, yet everything ended up this way.


    She had intended to check her phone but then decided against it. She shook her head, trying to get rid


    of her messy thoughts.


    From now on, he’s no longer in my life!


    When she was about to continue her short journey, she noticed some movements in the grass.


    Curious, she went to check on it. Pushing aside the grass under the guidance of the light from street


    lamps, she spotted a tiny brown poodle with doe eyes and a red cor. It seemed like it had run away


    from its owner.


    She stretched out a hand to pat on its head. “You’re really cute.”


    She used to have a dog, too, but hers was covered with snow-white fur and it was much bigger than


    this one.


    However, it died of old age. She never had pets after that because she did not want to go through the


    pain of loss again.


    “Where is your owner?” She asked as she carried the dog.


    Despite being in a stranger’s arms, the dog did not panic, nor did it struggle to set itself free. Instead, it


    buried itself in Zong Yanxi’s arms, which made herugh. “Why are you so clingy to a stranger? Aren’t


    you afraid I’ll take you away? You’ll never meet your owner again.”


    “Torah,” a young girl called. Hearing its name, the dog jumped out of Zong Yanxi’s arms and ran


    towards its owner.


    The little girl seemed to be around four to five years old. She was wearing a puff sleeve dress and her


    slightly blonde hair was tied into two braids. Zong Yanxi could see the girl’s facial features clearly under


    the light. She had thick eyebrows, bright eyes, and pale skin. Perhaps she was mixed-race——most


    people in this country did not have fair skin. The girl picked up her poodle and patted its head as she


    spoke in Thai, “Where were you? I’ve been looking for you.”


    After that, she lifted her head and stared at Zong Yanxi.


    Thetter was not that familiar with thenguage; she could only understand basic sentences.


    “Is this… your dog?” she asked in not-so-fluent Thai.


    “Who are you? Why were you holding my Torah?” the little girl ignored her question.

    Zong Yanxi was unable to respond since she did not understand her. On top of that, she was rushing to


    go to her parents’ house.


    Because of thenguage barrier, Zong Yanxi remained silent. She smiled at the little girl and gestured


    that her dog was adorable before walking on.


    The little girl blinked as she stared at Zong Yanxi. She then put the dog down to hook a leash around


    its cor. “Let’s go home.”


    With that, she trailed behind the woman.


    Zong Yanxi was aware of the little girl behind her but she said nothing. After walking some distance,


    she noticed the little girl was still following closely behind with her dog. She then halted her steps and


    turned to ask the girl, “Where… is your family?”


    Fearing that the little girl would not understand, Zong Yanxi used hand gestures tomunicate with


    her.


    Though it was a total mess, the little girl still understood her question as she pointed to a remarkable-


    looking mansion across the river. “My house.”


    Oh. So her house is also across the river. But it’ste. Why is she wandering alone outside?


    “Let me hold your hand,” she uttered to the little girl.


    We’re going in the same direction anyway. I can apany her.


    The little girl was just like her dog. She was not afraid of strangers and took Zong Yanxi’s hand.


    This behavior is dangerous. What if she encounters a kidnapper? How did her parents teach her?


    When they reached the bridge, the little girl suddenly stopped walking. “I’m tired.”


    Zong Yanxi stared at her without saying a word.


    The little girl then tugged at her legs and gave a yank on her arms. “Carry.”
