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.

“Please don’t sweat over this.” Captain Song lifted his glass of wine and downed its content at one go.

Shen Peichuan shook his head.

After dinner, Song Yaxin volunteered to give him a ride home. “Since you’re drunk, just let me drive you home.”

Shen Peichuan glanced at her with some hesitation before nodding in agreement.

Watching the two youngsters go, Captain Song sighed ruefully. Mrs. Song, who found that irritating, snapped, “Why’re you looking so blue? I’m sure Peichuan will agree to go out with Yaxin. Our daughter is perfect for him as she’s beautiful and well-educated.”

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?”
