Stealing Your Heart

“Sure! You can take your time to consider it.” Captain Song lamented, “I was making such a fool out of myself just now.”

Then, he added, “However, I’m willing to do anything for my daughter. All the parents in the world would do the same for their children too, wouldn’t they?”

Refilling Captain Song’s glass with more wine, Shen Peichuan responded, “I understand.”

Shen Peichuan knew Captain Song well enough to be sure that Captain Song would not hold a grudge against him even if he rejected his daughter in the end. For a person with a big ego, it must have taken Captain Song a lot of determination to even bring up such an idea to him.

In response, Captain Song cast an icy glance at his wife. “She doesn’t deserved a man like Peichuan because she’s a divorcee.”

Mrs. Song was left speechless. “Being a divorcee isn’t a big deal in this modern age. Doesn’t Peichuan have an ex-girlfriend too?”
