Stealing Your Heart Chapter 62
Zong Qifeng sat back on the sofa and called Mr. Feng. “Go and find out if something happened to him when he went abroad this time.”
The unprovoked cancellation of the engagement made him doubt there was something more.
Yuxiu reached out and held Zong Kaifeng’s hand, saying worriedly, “He will surely be unhappy once he knows that you do a check on him. The relationship between him and us is already tense. Why don’t you have another talk with him?”
Mr. Feng also agreed. “That’s right. You know the temper of the young master too.”
Zong Qifeng’s face clouded over, and he said coldly, “With his temper, can I really have a good talk with him?”
The tension on his face eased, but his attitude was firm. “I can let him do as he pleases in other things, but not this time.”
This was related to the future of the Zong family.
Yuxiu was still trying to persuade him but was interrupted by Zong Qifeng first. “No need to persuade me. I have made up my mind about this matter.”
He looked up at Mr. Feng. “Go ahead.”
“Umm—” Mr. Feng looked at Yuxiu hesitantly.
Yuxiu sighed. “Just do it. Both father and son have the same temper. No one can persuade them.”
Mr. Feng could only do as Zong Qifeng ordered.
Zong Jinghao, who had just left the mansion, was stopped by He Ruilin.
“Hao—”
Zong Jinghao acted like he hadn’t seen her and walked toward the car directly.
He Ruilin chased him up and grabbed his arm. “I have been with you for so many years, how could you end everything after I’ve only made one mistake?”
Zong Jinghao stopped walking. As it was too sudden, He Ruilin couldn’t stop, and ran into him.
She looked up obsessively at the face she had been obsessed with for a long time.
Zong Jinghao looked down at this woman who had been with him for a long time. He once thought that although this woman was calculating and not so pure like she appeared on the surface, she gave herself to him.
He should be responsible for her no matter what.
Even if there was no love, there was responsibility.
But at the moment he saw Lin Xinyan, he realized that his calm heart would still get stirred up, turning hot because of a woman, and that his heart would still be beating.
He didn’t know what it was.
He only knew that if he just got married like this, he would surely regret it later.
Zong Jinghao stretched out his hand to stroke her cheek and said softly, “Did you really make one mistake only?”
Many times he turned a blind eye to it and didn’t want to delve into it.
But it didn’t mean that he didn’t know at all.
He Ruilin froze. W-What does he know?
She thought about it carefully. So many years had passed, he was unlikely to find out, and now that she had her brother helping her, he would definitely not find anything.
If he got angry and scolded her, perhaps there was still a possibility for her to make him change his mind.
But he was so calm.
The calmer he was, the more it showed that he had made up his mind.
He Ruilin panicked and grabbed Zong Jinghao’s arm tightly. “Hao, I love you. Don’t you know how I feel after so many years?”
“But, I don’t love you.” Then, Zong Jinghao chuckled self-depreciatingly.
He Ruilin shook her head desperately, and snarled out of control, “No, no, you love me. You treat me well—”
“That’s not love!” It was just a responsibility he carried for what happened that night.
He forced himself to fall in love with her, but after so many years, he still couldn’t fall for her.
“I will compensate you for what I owe you, but it is definitely not by a marriage.” He pried Ho Ruilin’s fingers, obviously not wanting to continue talking about this matter.
But He Ruilin was unwilling to let go. “I don’t want compensation. I only want you.”
She didn’t want to admit it, but it turned out that Zong Jinghao had really fallen for Lin Xinyan.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been so resolute, as if he had changed into a different person, after seeing her.
