Stealing Your Heart Chapter 219
Cheng Yuxiu hooked her arms around his neck. Maybe that would make Bai Hongfei understand.
Soon, Cheng Yuwen and Bai Hongfei caught sight of Cheng Yuxiu, nestled comfortably in someone else’s embrace.
Even Cheng Yuwen froze for a second when he saw his sister in another man’s arms.
The last thing she told him before she left was that she promised someone else something and had to leave. She told him not to worry about her.
He knew that she wouldn’t be able to put together such a hefty sum of money so quickly, especially considering the fact that she was just a young woman.
The last thing he expected was to see her with another man.
Bai Hongfei, on the other hand, turned to stone on the spot. The woman he loved wholeheartedly had been taken by another man.
Their promise to marry each other rang in his ears.
It sounded so clear that it hurt.
“Yuxiu?” He growled. He sounded like a lion that was about to go berserk.
Cheng Yuxiu felt her heart beating against her chest violently. It was clear that Bai Hongfei was not the only one in pain.
However, there was nothing she could have done to change things.
She rested her head against Zong Qifeng’s shoulder and gazed at the fuming man before her. “That’s right. I don’t love you anymore. Let’s end things,” she said with much resolve.
She surprised with how determined she sounded as she thought that she wouldn’t be able to take it and end up bursting into tears. Yet, she was strangely calm.
Knowing her current situation, she knew that she wouldn’t be able to reverse things.
“This is not something you’ll say!” Bai Hongfei yelled. He refused to believe that she would give up on him so easily.
“You said that you’re going to marry me…”
“That was in the past!” Cheng Yuxiu said, cutting him off. Without a hint of remorse, she looked straight into his eyes and said, “Where were you when I needed you the most? Did you know how rude your mom was when I went to find you? How would I dare entrust myself in your care? Bai Hongfei, I don’t love you anymore, not like I ever truly loved you. I only said so because you’re from the Bai family…”
“I don’t believe it!” Bai Hongfei screamed, shaking his head and charging towards her. Zong Qifeng was prepared for this, and he sidestepped Bai Hongfei just before he made contact.
Bai Hongfei didn’t want to give up just yet.
“Who are you?” He yelled, glaring at Zong Qifeng and his hands that were carrying Cheng Yuxiu. “She belongs to me! Let her go now!”
Zong Qifeng immediately figured out the situation from their conversation.
He finally understood their relationship.
Cheng Yuxiu must have run into some kind of problem, and Wen Xian stepped in to help her.
That was how Cheng Yuxiu ended up on his bed, she had to repay Wen Xian to fulfil her side of the agreement.
This man was her ex-boyfriend.
All that led to the confrontation they were having at this moment.
It didn’t matter how many boyfriends she had previously, but the child in her belly was something he won’t allow anyone to hurt.
“Are you two married?” Zong Qifeng asked calmly.
Bai Hongfei didn’t know how to answer that. After all, they were only lovers, not a married couple.
Their marriage pact was cancelled without his knowledge.
“Your mom had announced that the Bai‘s’ had called off the wedding. We have nothing to do with each other anymore. Please leave,” Cheng Yuxiu said, moving her gaze away from him.
She thought she had been strong but when she saw his disappointment, she had to struggle to stop herself from giving in.
She was scared that she wouldn’t be able to stay determined if she kept looking at his sad expression.
She wanted to tell him that she was sorry; however, she couldn’t bring herself to say it.
She couldn’t give him false hope that would eventually hurt him even more.
