Stealing Your Heart

The journey from the villa to the wedding venue took roughly an hour. The heavy traffic slowed them down in such a densely populated city, but it was all accounted for. Zong Qifeng’s inquiries about an auspicious time were narrowed down to ten minutes past three. He was not concerned that they would be late.

The wedding entourage stood out like a sore thumb. Soon, the major media outlets had caught wind of this.

Everyone was curious to see Zong Jinghao’s betrothed and wanted to confirm if it was the woman they had spotted at the mall with him. After all, the news had made them seem quite intimate with each other.
