Stealing Your Heart

Shen Peichuan requested for a fresh cup from the waiter and poured a cup of wine for him. “Tell me about it.”

Zong Jinghao gave him a sidelong glance. “Since when were you so nosy?”

Shen Peichuan sighed. “I wanted to invite the two of you for a gathering, to talk about He Ruize, but I didn’t expect to see Su Zhan drinking himself to oblivion here. I figured that he’ll feel better with you around, but it looks like you’re not in a good mood either.”

Zong Jinghao picked up the cup of wine and downed it in one shot before slamming the cup onto the table. As for Lin Xinyan, she had gone to pay a visit to Cheng Yuxiu with her two kids.

He could tell that Lin Xinyan was close to Yuxiu, even though they did not know each other for long.

That alone made him uncomfortable.

Their proximity to one another could only mean one thing; they had been spending time together behind his back.

Lin Xinyan had not spoken a word about her relationship with Yuxiu, and he did not bother to ask her about it.

“How do you think I can impress Qin Ya, Peichuan?” an intoxicated Su Zhan drawled as he slung an arm around Shen Peichuan’s shoulder while swaying on his feet. “She left me before I could even react…”

Shen Peichuan frowned and tried to push him away. “You reek of alcohol! Get away from me!”

However, Su Zhan merely hugged him closer. “I pity you! You’re getting on in your years, and yet, you’re still single…”

Shen Peichuan fell silent.

“I would have left you too if I was Qin Ya!” Shen Peichuan muttered out of spite.

Su Zhan ignored him with a pained expression in his eyes, which was out of character for him.

Shen Peichuan sighed. “Look at how drunk you are! If you want her back, make sure that you’re honest with her! I think that you should clear up the whole Liu Feifei situation with her and give her the security that she wants.”

“Security? What’s that?” Su Zhan slurred, slapping his chest like a gorilla. “I told her everything! I told her that Liu Feifei was my first love, but we’ve since lost interest in each other. She just won’t believe me!”
