Stealing Your Heart Chapter 497

At Su Zhan’s words, the man’s steps quickened as he hurried away, wiping the cold sweat away from his forehead in fear.

“Captain Shen, do you know her?” the manager asked. As Shen Peichuan had talked to Sang Yu, it was evident they knew each other.

But how did Shen Peichuan know this broke college student? She wondered.

Shen Peichuan answered, “Yes.” He knew the manager knew his position and his relationship with Zong Jinghao, so she’d take care of Sang Yu as long as he asked for her help.

“Please take care of her. She’s still young and naïve.”

The manager grinned. “No problem. I’ll do my best since you’ve asked for my help.”

Shen Peichuan chatted with the manager for a while before returning to his seat. Su Zhan had a comical expression on his face. How could he return after saving the damsel in distress without expressing his concern for the damsel?

Su Zhan touched his forehead, utterly speechless. When will this old man come to his senses? When will he get himself a wife? Why didn’t he protect the pretty and budding flower? I can’t believe he came right back to finish his food!

As long as he shows off, she’ll be moved to tears and fall for him right on the spot! Isn’t that a splendid chance to seduce the young girl?

But that fool returned to his seat just like that.

Sang Yu stared at Shen Peichuan’s retreating figure before lowering her gaze. She didn’t expect to meet him here, let alone knew he’d help her once again.

The manager patted her shoulder. “Do your best. I didn’t know you know Shen Peichuan. Do you know who he is?”

Sang Yu nodded. The first time she met him, he had helped her mother to give her some money. Back then, when he introduced himself, he mentioned he was a police captain. She was full of respect for his occupation.

He seems indifferent. I must’ve misunderstood him back then.

The manager pointed at the building across the street. “He’s close to the President of Wanyue Group. Have you ever seen the President?”

Sang Yu recalled seeing three men in the VIP room that night. Two of them were here, so the other one should be Mr. Zong, the President of Wanyue Group, as explained by her manager.

“I think I have,” she returned honestly.

The manager cast a thoughtful gaze at the young and pretty girl. “I heard they are all single.”

She was insinuating that Sang Yu would be lucky enough to hook up with any of them as they were all hot, powerful and wealthy.

Those men were rare bachelors. If the manager wasn’t married with kids, she would’ve made a move on either one of them.

Alas, her age and looks stopped her from having that thought.

Sang Yu was so innocent she didn’t know what her manager was insinuating. She dismissed her words as nonsense.

“Sweep the floor. Next time, be more careful and alert.” The manager glanced at Shen Peichuan and Su Zhan’s table before reminding her.

Sang Yu nodded humbly. “I will work hard. This will never happen again.”

Then, she took a cloth and started cleaning the puddle and shards of glasses on the ground.

Su Zhan gazed at the young girl kneeling on the ground before he asked Shen Peichuan, “Do you not sympathize with her?”

“You’re crazy.” Shen Peichuan didn’t even look at her. Indeed, he wanted a wife, but he wouldn’t consider Sang Yu. She was too young for his liking. He would never be able to live it down because he was so much older than her.

For some reason, he felt it was immoral to date someone as young as her.

Besides, it would be awkward if people thought she was his daughter.

Su Zhan was so frustrated. Looks like I have to help him get a wife, he thought. He stood up instantly and glared at Shen Peichuan. “If it isn’t for me, you’ll remain single forever.”

“What are you doing?” Shen Peichuan had a bad feeling that he was about to do something silly.
