Stealing Your Heart

Shen Peichuan felt helpless. “Do you think I can quit whenever I want to now? Even if I do retire, it’ll have to be after this.”

Su Zhan said, “Why didn’t you say anything earlier? Why are you here? Aren’t you afraid of endangering your daughter and son-in-law?”

Shen Peichuan sighed. He was afraid that Shen Xinyao would overthink the matter if he did not come. After all, it was her wedding, and it was a once-in-a-lifetime event. He could not go back in time if he missed it. Moreover, she was his only daughter; he wanted to hand her over to Zhuang Jiawen personally.

“I think you should pay more attention to this. You haven’t even found the mole among you yet. Maybe someone has already found out you’re here in C City.” Su Zhan wanted to warn him about the credibility of most civil servants.

Zong Jinghao agreed with Su Zhan’s worries. “Be more careful.”

“You should tell Jiawen about this. You can only be wary when you know about it. Otherwise, if he’s kept in the dark and something happens, he won’t know what to do.” Su Zhan downed the glass of wine.

Feeling apologetic to Zhuang Jiawen, he muttered, “Shut it. I’ll tell him about it.”

“Do I look that irresponsible to you?” Shen Peichuan pushed away from the glass in front of him. “You’re getting older, so drink less. I don’t need you to be the one to tell this to my son-in-law.”

“Listen to yourself. He’s your son-in-law, but did he not spend a long time with us?” Su Zhan huffed, unwilling to admit defeat. “Are you being mean to me?”

Shen Peichuan immediately fell silent. He knew what Su Zhan meant. What the other man would say next was, Are you being mean to me because I don’t have my own kids?

Fearing that Su Zhan would start arguing with him, Shen Peichuan found it best not to continue the topic.

After dinner, Shen Peichuan called Zhuang Jiawen to his room and told him about the situation.

“Seriously, what’s with my dad? He’s hiding things from me, but not from Jiawen. Am I his daughter or is Jiawen his daughter?” Shen Xinyao grumbled to Zong Yanxi when she was chased out of the room by her parents.

Zong Yanxi chuckled, “Even so, Jiawen won’t be their daughter. He’ll be their son.”

Shen Xinyao laughed. Walking to the car, she asked, “Are you going to drive, or am I driving?”
