Stealing Your Heart

Stealing Your Heart Chapter 898

After Zong Yanxi spelled her terms, the man agreed without any hesitation.

It was a good deal and there was no reason for him to say no.

True, she was paying him a lot more than Ling Wei did, but what was more important was her family background.

He could not afford to cross the Zong family.

To be precise, the man did not have a choice at all. He had to think of his men and do what was best for them.

And choosing Zong Yanxi over Ling Wei was the only way to preserve himself and his men.

After striking the deal, Zong Yanxi stood up and gestured to leave. “Don’t let me down,” she said before walking towards the staircase.

“I won’t. I’ll see you out,” the man followed suit and walked towards her.

“By the way, you’re…” Zong Yanxi stopped suddenly and asked.

“Li Chengjie,” the man replied.

Zong Yanxi shot him a smile and nodded before they went downstairs.

Seeing their boss and the two guests coming down, the men downstairs stood up and greeted their leader. “Chengjie.”

He nodded and waved at his men as he looked at Zong Yanxi. “Come meet my friends.”

Zong Yanxi raised her brows as she heard the word “friends.”

But Li Chengjie smiled warmly and introduced the lot. “These are my brothers. They’ve been working for me for years, and they are like my family.”

Although Li Chengjie and his men operated illegal crimes, they were still men of honor who remained loyal to their friends.

Zong Yanxi dipped her head at the men and said, “We’ll make a move first. You don’t have to send us off.”

“Alright. See you,” Li Chengjie replied as he stood at the door.

Gu Xian hastened his step as he went ahead to open the door for Zong Yanxi. After getting into the driver’s seat himself, he sped off in no time.

Over at the door, Li Chengjie turned and went into the house after they left.

“Do we have a new task?” the man with a scar asked hopefully. From the looks of Li Chengjie, he could tell their boss had just landed a good deal with Zong Yanxi.

But Li Chengjie was not as enthusiastic. “I’m doing this alone. It’s not something y’all can do. Also, try to lay low these few days,” he replied coldly.
