Stealing Your Heart

The first snow of the winter fell soon after.

Everything was covered with a thick layer of shiny white snow overnight, making them look as though they were made of snow.

Wen Xian wrapped the baby in winter clothing tightly first thing the morning, leaving only his nose and eyes exposed. Madam Wen came in to see her daughter and grandson, only to see them ready to leave. “Why are you up so early? Why don’t you sleep for a while more?” She frowned.

“I need to get back before breakfast. I can’t leave Qifeng alone at home,” Wen Xian said as she packed the baby’s milk powder and bottle into her bag, before slinging the bag over her shoulders and picking up the baby in her arms.

“Qifeng isn’t a kid anymore, he’s not going to starve if you aren’t there, is he?” Madam Wen asked. She didn’t want her daughter to catch a cold from the blizzard outside.

Wen Xian looked at her mother for a couple of seconds and said, “Mom, I’m leaving.”

She had the chauffeur waiting outside, and Madam Wen resisted the urge to get Wen Xian to stay, considering that Wen Xian might have just wanted to be a good wife to her husband. Instead, she put on a thick fur coat and followed Wen Xian out.

She only returned home after Wen Xian had gotten onto her ride. Wen Qing came over in thin pajamas when she was hanging up her coat. Maybe soldiers tend to have a higher tolerance to cold weather? “Where did you go? It’s so early,” he asked.

He could tell that she had just come back from the outside.

Madam Wen smiled. “I just sent your sister off.”

Wen Qing’s face froze for a second. “She has gone back so early?”

“She said that she was worried about Qifeng. You see, they weren’t too interested in each other when they got married, but they seem to be fine now. Your sister wanted to go back early in the morning despite the cold weather just because she was concerned about Qifeng.”

Wen Qing stayed silent, instead pouring himself a cup of water at the table. He pondered over Wen Xian and Zong Qifeng’s matters in his head.

It all started with Wen Jin’s good impression of Zong Qifeng. He stood out from all the rich kids in the area and had risen to the highest rank in his company within a few years and contributed much to the company’s development.

Wen Qing felt proud of his sister for getting married to such a capable man.

As such, he would never allow anyone to mess up this marriage.
