Stealing Your Heart Chapter 601

Shen Peichuan shook his head and said no.

Sitting across the table, Captain Song took a quick glimpse at Shen Peichuan and then at Song Yaxin. He knew his wife’s words would have affected his daughter, but there was nothing his daughter could do to undo the past, no matter how much she regretted it.

As people always say—never force anything that was not meant to be, because one would never have to force anything that was truly meant to be.

It was true that Captain Song really hoped Shen Peichuan could marry his daughter at one point, but he knew love could not be forced.

That was why he invited Shen Peichuan and Sang Yu over.

It was time he buried his unfulfilled wish, and it was also time his wife and his daughter got over the past.

Now that Song Yaxin had divorced, all Captain Song wanted was for her to get over the hurt and start anew with someone else who would truly cherish her.

Looking at the four of them, Captain Song let out a sigh and collected himself. “Come, let’s dig in. Make yourself at home; there’s not a need to be so constrained. I remember you being quite an eloquent girl,” he said, looking at Sang Yu.

Captain Song really admired the girl. From his first impression of her, she was energetic and courageous.

Upon hearing that, a small and innocent grin spread across Sang Yu’s lips. “I was really worried that you would punish him back then.”

Captain Song chuckled as he thought about how Sang Yu had defended Shen Peichuan last time. “I bet you’re the one who pursued him.”

Captain Song knew Shen Peichuan inside out. He knew that the man would never initiate something like that when he first saw the news.

But Shen Peichuan had quickly interjected and came to Sang Yu’s rescue. “No, it is I who liked her first,” he said softly but surely.

He did not want people to have the wrong idea about Sang Yu.

After all, she was the one who had helped him out.

Captain Song widened his eyes in surprise and laughed heartily. “Ha! I didn’t expect that!”

He had always thought Shen Peichuan to be an honest and dull man.

It never occurred to him that Shen Peichuan would go after any girl. That said a lot about how much Shen Peichuan liked Sang Yu.

It was completely understandable, though. Sang Yu was a beautiful girl in her prime, and she had a fine character. Captain Song could tell that she was someone who had a mind of her own, although she was much younger than Shen Peichuan.

He shifted his gaze to Sang Yu and told her, “Peichuan does not have his family with him here, so you must take good care of him.”

She smiled and nodded her head vigorously as she stole a look at Shen Peichuan.

Sang Yu knew that this was the man she wanted to marry one day.
