Stealing Your Heart

Qin Ya lowered her head. “I don’t think he knows why I’m mad.”

All she ever wanted was for him to tell her the truth, be it about Liu Feifei or his parents.

She valued honesty in a relationship.

He had emphasized how nothing had happened between him and Liu Feifei that night, but she was mad at him for not telling her about the meeting earlier.

He had plenty of opportunities to do so, yet he had neglected to inform her about it.

“I don’t feel secure around him. I think that it’s time we part ways,” she announced.

Shen Peichuan was surprised by her decisiveness.

Looks like Su Zhan has to work hard to win her trust again… You’re on your own now, Su Zhan!

“Alright then, I’ll leave him with you. I have to go now, but if you’re too busy taking care of his grandmother, I’ll get someone to help you out,” Shen Peichuan urged. His statement might have been a lie, but it was necessary to create some space for the both of them.

“There’s no need for that. I’ll find a temporary helper if it comes to that,” Qin Ya affirmed.

“Alright then. Call me if you need anything,” Shen Peichuan reminded her.

Qin Ya nodded in response.

She watched as Shen Peichuan exited the hospital before returning to the room and closing the door behind her.

Su Zhan was sprawled on the bed, still in his coat.

“It hurts…everything hurts…” he muttered in his sleep.

Qin Ya walked over, as she towered above him. “Where does it hurt?”

She could not tell if Su Zhan was actually passed out drunk or if he was just pretending to be unconscious. She watched as he flipped over and continued to moan, “Everything hurts…my heart hurts…”

After a long internal battle, she finally conceded defeat and muttered, “Fine then. I’ll take care of you this once since we’d used to be so close.”

She bent over to yank his coat off his body, but he refused to cooperate.

She frowned. “Su Zhan…”
