Stealing Your Heart

Shen Peichuan immediately dropped silent. However, Qin Ya already heard him talking. She entered the ward and glanced around. “Who were you talking to just now?”

“Was I talking?” Shen Peichuan pretended to be steady.

Qin Ya nodded surely. “Yeah! You said ‘What would you like to eat?’ to someone, didn’t you?”

“Nah, I think you have heard wrongly,” Shen Peichuan denied as he touched his nose. Qin Ya was flummoxed. She was pretty sure she wasn’t hallucinating earlier.

She lowered her gaze to Su Zhan. He was still in a coma.

“Why did you come back so early? You already finished eating?” Shen Peichuan bent his head to look at his watch. It had only been ten minutes since Qin Ya left with Grandma Su. It wasn’t even enough for a short meal.

Earlier on, Qin Ya only realized that she forgot to bring her phone and her purse after reaching the cafeteria. She went back to Su Zhan’s ward to retrieve her belongings in a rush. After that, she still had to convince Grandma Su to eat.

“We haven’t eaten anything yet.” Qin Ya went to the table to get her phone and her purse. “I only realized I didn’t have any money on me as we were making our purchase.”

Shen Peichuan nodded understandingly. “Oh, I see. Hurry back, then. Don’t leave Grandma Su alone for too long. I’ll stay to watch Su Zhan.”

Qin Ya also nodded doubtfully as she took a quick glimpse of Su Zhan on the bed. It didn’t look like he had woken up earlier, but Shen Peichuan was indeed talking to someone just now.

“Mr. Shen, are you sure you don’t want me to get something for you to eat?” Qin Ya asked.

Shen Peichuan answered reassuringly, “It is fine. My wife is waiting for me at home.”

Qin Ya chuckled. “Oh right, I forgot you are married. Didn’t say this earlier, but I wish you a blissful marriage!”

Shen Peichuan responded, “Thank you.”

Before leaving, Qin Ya confirmed that Shen Peichuan didn’t want to eat one last time. After she left, Shen Peichuan let out a sigh of relief.

After making sure that Qin Ya had walked a great distance from the room, he nudged Su Zhan. “She’s gone now. Do you think she found us suspicious?”

Su Zhan opened his eyes. “What’s wrong with you? You don’t have the balls to lie to a woman?”

Shen Peichuan was speechless.
