Heart Stealer

The afternoon sun shines through the window into the corner of the cafe, creating patches of mottled light and shadow.

In this quiet corner, the eldest son of the Jundun Hotel, Bian, was sitting alone on a comfortable sofa chair.

He was dressed in a well-tailored suit, looking elegant and graceful.

On the table in front of him was a cup of steaming bitter coffee.

She gently held the cup with both hands, feeling the warm touch, and then slowly brought the cup to her lips.

He carefully tasted the bitter yet mellow flavor.

His deep eyes sometimes stared at the liquid in the cup, and sometimes looked at the bustling street outside the window.

At this moment, he seemed to be immersed in his own world, and his thoughts were floating like a wisp of smoke.

At this moment, a sudden and fierce quarrel abruptly broke the tranquility, like a huge rock thrown into a calm lake, instantly causing ripples.

The quarrel was so loud that it was impossible for him to remain calm and contemplative any longer.

He turned his head involuntarily, looking for the source of the sound.

Not far from him, Xiao Tuobang and Jing Tianxin were standing face to face.

Both of their faces flushed red, their eyes widened, and they glared at each other, extremely excited.

They were arguing loudly over a girl, and their words were full of tension.

Seeing this scene, he couldn't help but frowned slightly.

A look of displeasure appeared on his face, because the Xiao Tuobang in front of him was the one who had reported the Jundun Hotel to the relevant authorities.

Because of that report, the Kington Hotel, which was already in financial trouble, was further hit and fell into a serious crisis.

This incident caused Xi to feel deeply dissatisfied and resentful towards Xiao Tuobang.

Thinking of this, he subconsciously reached into his pocket and quickly took out his cell phone.

And quietly turned the camera to Xiao Tuobang and the beautiful girl standing next to him behaving intimately.

He skillfully adjusted the shooting angle to ensure that the intimate expressions and movements of the two people could be clearly captured.

Then, he pressed the shutter without hesitation, and with a "click", he successfully captured the scene at that moment.

Seeing that the relationship between Xiao Tuobang and Zhang Sufang was unusual, if he could use this photo cleverly, perhaps he could make Xiao Tuobang suffer.

After returning home, he couldn't wait to turn on the computer, carefully selected a few photos that looked very ambiguous, and developed them.

He then carefully put the photos into an envelope with a smug smile on his face.

He called Uncle Liu, the family worker, and handed him the envelope, saying, "Uncle Liu, please help me mail this envelope."

Uncle Liu took the envelope, looked at it carefully, and asked doubtfully, "Master, there is no address on this envelope."

After hearing what Uncle Liu said, Xiao waved his hand impatiently: "Don't meddle in other people's business. Just do as I say."

Uncle Liu saw that the young master was firm in his attitude. He didn't know what the young master was up to, so he didn't say anything more.

He took the envelope and left the room.

Looking at Uncle Liu's departing back, a sinister smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

He knew that this letter would become a trump card in his hand, and he would use it against Xiao Tuobang to make him feel the pain of being plotted against.

……

In the yard of a luxurious villa, the sunlight casts mottled shadows through the leaves, and Qiu Xue is concentrating on cutting roses of various colors.

Her eyes were full of enthusiasm, and her fingers danced the scissors deftly, trimming the gorgeous roses to just the right degree.

Qiuxue carefully selected the flowers, matched them together skillfully, and then embellished them with baby's breath, making the whole bouquet more perfect.

She carefully placed the bouquet into an exquisite vase, adjusting the angle to ensure that each flower could show its most beautiful posture.

She looked forward to Xiao Tuobang's praise when he saw the vase when he returned home, and imagined his surprised expression and words of praise.

She believed that this carefully prepared gift would bring him joy and touch his heart.

Just then, Mrs. Zhen hurried over and handed a letter to Qiu Xue.

Qiu Xue took the letter and noticed that there was no address on the envelope.

She couldn't help but frown and opened the envelope in confusion, wanting to find out what was inside.

As she pulled out the letter, several photos fell to the ground.

Qiu Xue looked down, and the scene in the photo made her face instantly gloomy.

That was a close photo of Xiao Tuobang and Zhang Sufang. They were smiling happily, and their interaction made people feel that they had a very good understanding with each other.

Qiu Xue's mood suddenly became heavy. She already knew that there was a special relationship between Xiao Tuobang and Zhang Sufang.

But these photos made her feel an inexplicable pressure and uneasiness.

She didn't know who sent the letter, nor did she understand why the other party showed her the photos.

She silently picked up the photo and looked at it carefully, trying to find some clues from the picture.

However, she could see nothing except the smiles of the two.

She sighed and put the photo back into the envelope, her mood becoming more complicated.

Qiu Xue sat by the window, the sunlight shining on her through the glass, but it could not dispel the haze in her heart.

She held the photos tightly, tears in her eyes and her heart filled with pain and struggle.

She recalled every moment with Xiao Tuobang over and over again, and those beautiful moments kept playing in her mind like a movie.

She recalled the sweet times they had when they walked hand in hand through the streets, sharing each other's joys and sorrows.

She thought of the romantic nights they had spent together, under the stars, cuddling each other and making promises for the future.

But at the same time, she also remembered the quarrels and conflicts between them, and those fierce words made her heartbroken.

Qiu Xue didn't know what to do, nor did she know how to face the relationship between Xiao Tuobang and Zhang Sufang.

She felt like she was caught in a vortex and couldn't extricate herself.

Qiuxue sat in front of the window, her thoughts like scattered petals, swaying gently in the breeze.

There was a hint of melancholy in her eyes.

When Xiao Tuobang returned home from get off work, he opened the door and saw Qiu Xue's warm and romantic room decorated with flowers.

His eyes lit up, an expression of surprise appeared on his face, and he praised Qiu Xue repeatedly.

He walked over to Qiuxue, gently put his arm around her shoulders, and said softly, "Wife, you decorated the room so beautifully today."

When Qiu Xue heard Xiao Tuobang's praise, she looked up at him with a happy light in her eyes.

She smiled and responded, "Thank you, husband."

The two looked at each other and smiled, and Qiu Xue seemed to have all her worries disappeared at this moment.

Qiu Xue felt that as long as Xiao Tuobang still loved her as before, nothing else mattered.

Qiu Xue breathed a sigh of relief, perhaps this anonymous letter was just a prank.

She decided not to let this letter affect her relationship with Xiao Tuobang.

She secretly hid the letter, not wanting Xiao Tuobang to know about it.
