Stealing Your Heart Chapter 301

Eyes narrowed, Su Zhan’s voice sounded frosty as he asked, “Sleep with you for one night?”Who do you take me for? You’re not the same Liu Feifei I’d known years ago. Where has your innocence and kindness gone? What has caused you to turn into this crazy woman?

“I won’t betray my wife,” he uttered assuredly.

Taken aback by his words, Liu Feifei clenched her fists tightly and muttered, “I’m not asking you to sleep with me. I just want you to stay here to keep me company.”

“Even if it may be as such, the answer is still no.”

“Are you really that heartless?” The woman burst into maniacal laughter. “Step out of this door and the next time you see me, I’ll be a corpse. I assure you that I’ll keep my words. You can go ahead and leave if you don’t believe me.”

With that said, she crawled to her feet and moved to sit on the couch.

“You’re forcing me to do this?” Su Zhan’s eyes darkened in anger.

At this point, Liu Feifei knew that she would never be able to win him back, especially if she continued to act in such a magnanimous manner. That was why she would now do everything that she could to make him stay the night.If Qin Ya misunderstands and they decide to get a divorce, I’ll get my chance to win him back!

Raising her eyes to gaze at him, she hissed, “You’rethe one who’s forcing me to do this. Sure, I was the one who had left you all those years ago. However, I have never betrayed our love. You, on the other hand, have completely dismissed our relationship! How could you be so cruel as to do this to me? Since you refused to even hold a shred of mercy for me, why should I do the same?”

For a while, he stood there unmoving, merely staring at the woman, before he soon asked, “Were you being serious when you’d said that you would leave me alone from now on if I’d agreed to merely stay the night with you?”

She nodded. “Yes. Think of it as officially cutting off our ties. I’ll leave you to your own devices after tonight.”

Pondering over the idea, Su Zhan finally agreed. After all, the both of them had not actually met face-to-face, back then when she had left. Now, he had married Qin Ya, only for Liu Feifei to tell him the truth about what had happened all those years ago. Since she had not actually betrayed him, he felt obligated to break all the ties between them clearly.

In a way, he had given up on them first.Just keeping her company doesn’t seem like such an unreasonable request.

“I’ll have to make a phone call.” At long last, Su Zhan finally decided to call Qin Ya, to let her know that she need not wait up for him. He would explain everything to her after he had gone back home.

Strangely enough, the call could not connect.

On the other side of things, Su Zhan’s assistant was unable to get off of work due to Qin Ya’s presence. All the other lawyers had already left the office long ago, and now, only the both of them remained.

“Are you going to keep waiting for Mr. Su?” the assistant asked.

Seeing as Su Zhan and Qin Ya did not conduct a wedding ceremony, here in B City, not a lot of people knew that they were married. He had not found the right time to announce their marriage either.

He had originally planned on finding a day where he could invite his colleagues together for a meal, to introduce her to them. However, it was close to the end of the year now and everybody was incredibly busy with work. Thus, he had been unable to do as he had planned.

Qin Ya dug out her phone to check the time, only to discover that it was already dead.

Lifting her head, she asked the assistant, “What time is it now?”

The man glanced at the time briefly before replying, “It’s close to twelve.”

Disappointment and loneliness flashed through her eyes.In the end, he’d still broken his promise.

She tried to put on a calm front, despite feeling a sense of pain emanate from her already shattering heart. When she spoke, her voice quivered, “Can you assist me in writing up a divorce agreement?”

As an assistant to a lawyer, such matters were his bread and butter. “Sure. Please wait for a moment.”

He thought that she was just someone who had come here to hire Su Zhan for a court case. From the look of things, it was a marriage lawsuit too.

Unable to help himself, he questioned, “May I ask you of the reason for your divorce? Is it because your husband has cheated on you?”

The assistant stared at his phone for several seconds, seemingly stunned. Su Zhan had always been very serious when it came to work, so it was odd to see him brushing this matter off in such a manner.What’s going on with him?

Qin Ya spoke up, breaking him out of his stupor. “Was that Su Zhan?”

It was only a guess on her part, as she thought that she had heard his familiar voice.

He nodded, mumbling, “Yes, that was Mr. Su. I’m not sure what he’s been busy with. He has always been very patient in teaching me, whenever these sorts of issues arise. His response earlier was truly quite unexpected.”

She chuckled ruefully.He’s meeting up with his old flame now; of course he won’t be in the mood to deal with work-related matters! He’s probably forgotten all about me waiting for him! What’s the point of me staying here any longer?

She stood up, the assistant quickly doing the same as he offered, “Mr. Wang is one of the best lawyers that we have, when it comes to marriage lawsuits. Would you like me to contact him for you?”

“I’ll come again if I require your services.”

With that said, she spun around and left the firm. For a good long while, she stood by the roadside, lost in her thoughts. It was still the same day, yet her heart was no longer the same, as it had been this morning.Maybe everything was a mistake from the start, and now, it’s time to end it all.

At long last, she hailed a taxi to return home.

Grandma Su was not home so the house was quiet. She went to their room and dug out a suitcase, before beginning to pack her things. She did not have many possessions so it was easy to fit everything into one suitcase.

When she was done with that, she sat down upon the edge of the bed while staring down at her feet.This is where he slept on the floor last night.

Abruptly, a bubble of laughter escaped her lips, tinged with audible sorrow.

At first, she had thought that he was merely being considerate of her feelings, which was why he had chosen to sleep on the floor, as he refrained from touching her.

Thinking back on the matter, however, it was most likely because his dearly beloved had returned to his side.So he’s not even willing to touch me now? What exactly am I to him? Am I supposed to be a mere outlet for his sexual frustrations?
