Stealing Your Heart Chapter 397

She adored Zong Jinghao, but she was also afraid of him.

Chen Qing stroked her hand and said gently, “Don’t worry, Daddy will always support you.”

“Dad, do you really want me to marry Zong Jinghao?” Chen Shihan asked.

She also had her own dignity and ego. Besides, Zong Jinghao might hate her if he was forced to marry her.

Rather than telling her his personal opinion, Chen Qing cleared his throat and started dissecting the pros and cons of the whole situation.

“Why did the Zong family and the Wen family intermarry? Wen Xian and Zong Qifeng married because it was in the best interest of the two families. One controls the army; the other controls the economy. What do you think is the outcome of such a marriage?” Chen Qing asked his daughter.

“Each family gets to consolidate and extend its power,” she replied.

When two prominent families worked together, they complemented each other and further reinforced their own power.

“These two families are so influential – everyone is afraid of them. Look at the He family. They were once a noble family, but what’s left of them now? Thanks to Zong Jinghao, only one out of the three kids made it till now.” Chen Qing pointed out with a scoff.

He looked at his daughter and continued, “If he’s able to join our family, we will be stronger.”

Chen Shihan understood where her dad was coming from. She wanted to help him too, but Zong Jinghao terrified her.

“You don’t have to worry about a single thing. I will make sure everything turns out well. You’ve got much more than this, be confident!” Chen Qing encouraged her.

Chen Shihan looked at her dad shyly and admitted, “He’s the most charismatic man I’ve ever met, and I really wish to marry him.”
