Stealing Your Heart

They each had a role to play, and everything was progressing according to plan.

“Come with me. I need to talk to you.” Zong Qifeng then walked to the reception room, where the sunlight was coming into the spacious room through the window. Zong Qifeng waited for Zong Jinghao at the window with his hands behind his back before asking, “What’s going on? Did you offend somebody?”

It was obvious to him that what had happened was not natural but deliberate.

After all, Zong Qifeng was once a formidable figure. Even though he had retired, he was still as sharp as ever.

Zong Jinghao stood beside his father at the window with his hands in the pockets, still wearing the clothes he had on the day before.

There was stillness in his eyes, and his facial features looked cold but gorgeous, giving Zong Jinghao an intimidating aura that kept people around him on their feet.

Zong Qifeng knew there was still estrangement between his son and himself, but he offered to help anyway, “Is there anything I can do?”

He decided to disregard Zong Jinghao’s indifference towards him. It was much more important to deal with the problem at hand.

“There’s none, so go home,” replied Zong Jinghao coldly.

Before Zong Jinghao could walk away, Zong Qifeng inquired, “Do you know who’s behind it?”

Zong Jinghao paused briefly after the question but did not reply, “Take good care of Xichen and Ruixi for me.”

“You don’t have to worry about the children, but we need to talk when this is over. Some things are not what they seem on the surface,” insisted Zong Qifeng as Zong Jinghao continued to walk away from him.

Zong Jinghao had a pretty good guess of what his father wanted to talk about. It had to be about Cheng Yuxiu, the reason for the estrangement between the two.
