Stealing Your Heart

Not wanting to argue further, Zong Yanxi reminded, “Please remember our deal. Once you have said your piece, never ever appear in front of me again.”

Lowering his gaze to hide his disappointment, Jiang Mohan grunted in agreement. “Let’s go.”

Zong Yanxi followed him in silence.

Jiang Mohan walked into a Chinese restaurant. However, Zong Yanxi remained expressionless and maintained her cool facade.

Coincidentally, Tawan was meeting a friend there. He was about to leave when he bumped into them.

At that moment, Jiang Mohan saw him too and both men stopped in their tracks.

Zong Yanxi was visibly surprised. Just when she was about to greet Tawan, Tawan spoke first. But, his words were directed at Jiang Mohan. “I didn’t expect you to join us.”

Just as he spoke, he pulled Zong Yanxi to his side.

Zong Yanxi reacted quickly. Holding onto his arm, she lifted her chin and smiled. In a familiar tone, she pretended as if she knew Tawan would be there. “Is this the restaurant where you mentioned you would be having dinner with your friends?

She was just guessing or perhaps even pretending in front of Jiang Mohan. She wanted to show him how close she was to Tawan.

The truth was Tawan was indeed there to meet his friends. Nevertheless, he knew Zong Yanxi was acting. Hence, he added, “We’re done.”
