Stealing Your Heart (Lin Xinyan) novel Chapter 210

Stealing Your Heart Chapter 210

Zong Qifeng’s expression didn’t change, but his eyes began to lose its spark.

He married Wen Xian according to their families’ wishes, despite having no feelings for her. It’s been a year since they got married, yet they treated each other like acquaintances and steered clear of intimacy.

They slept separately even on the night of their wedding, since Wen Xian said that she was scared.

Zong Qifeng knew the real reason perfectly well, she’s in love with someone else.

He didn’t love her initially, but he had to admit that Wen Xian was a good woman. She was kind and gentle. He couldn’t help but start getting interested in her, though he hid his feelings away.

He knew that she already loved someone else and that her gentle demeanor was just a mask for her strong personality. She would do anything to please the person she loved.

Wouldn’t that make anyone fall for her?

It sounds funny, but he had never forced her into doing things she didn’t want to.

In the eyes of the public, they were a perfect match for each other, and many people envied them.

However, no one knew that there is no substance in their relationship.

As to his wife’s request, he knew that the person waiting in the room might not be Wen Xian herself…

He went home anyway.

Knowing that the person inside the room was not his legitimate wife, he still pushed the door open.

Cheng Yuxiu burrowed further into the sheets and trembled violently the moment she heard the door open.

Zong Qifeng watched as the mound in the sheets shook, his eyes squinting a little.

He didn’t know whether he should be happy or sad.

In the era of monogamy, where the sensitivity, paranoia, and mysophobia of women became increasingly apparent.

His wife found a woman for him willingly.

Closing the door, he strode over to the bed.

Cheng Yuxiu shivered as she heard the door close.

She held on tightly to the blanket she used to wrap herself in, praying that he wouldn’t come nearer.

Zong Qifeng stood by the bed and looked at the body hidden inside the sheets. He knew that it wasn’t Wen Xian, but he still called out, “Wen Xian.”

Cheng Yuxiu began to cry as she screamed internally, ”I’m Cheng Yuxiu! I’m not your wife! I’m not Wen Xian!”

She couldn’t bring herself to vocalize it.

She agreed to this, and she regretted it wholly. She had been acting rashly, and even though she saved the family and her brother, she had ruined her own life.

Zong Qifeng could tell how terrified the woman in the blankets must be, but he didn’t consider leaving. No matter how this woman looked or how smart she was, he’s getting his way with her tonight.

Unbuttoning his shirt one by one, he rasped, “Since you’ve agreed to this, why are you acting so defeated?”

Cheng Yuxiu froze. What did he mean by that?

Did he know that the person under the sheets was not his wife?

“You took her money and agreed to her conditions, so don’t feel embarrassed. All this was voluntary,” he said. Shouldn’t he be the one feeling embarrassed?

Cheng Yuxiu tossed the blankets aside. “You…”

Before she could say another word, he shoved her back onto the bed and ripped off her clothes.

Cheng Yuxiu struggled against his grip. “I’m not your wife! I’m not…”

The man didn’t want to hear that at all. Pressing her head down and refusing to meet her gaze or even hear her voice, he covered her face with a blanket and said, “There. Neither of us will feel embarrassed this way.”

That night, she screamed herself hoarse.

When she dated Bai Hongfei, they stayed away from intimacy. He had asked for it a couple of times, but she pacified him with kisses, promising a good time on their wedding night.

Little did she know that she would present herself to a man she saw on a photograph and barely recognized.

When the sky brightened up just a bit, the man got up and started to put on his clothes, his back facing her. “We’re done for now.”
