Heart Stealer

Xiao Tuobang walked up the stairs with heavy steps. He slowly pushed open the door of the study, walked into the room and went straight to the desk.

Then he slumped down on the sofa as if he had lost all his strength.

His eyes fell on the desk, where there was a pack of cigarettes for entertaining guests.

He stretched out his trembling hand, picked up the cigarette box, took out a cigarette, and lit it with a lighter.

Xiao Tuobang took a deep puff of the cigarette. The pungent smoke instantly filled his mouth and lungs, choking him and making him cry.

But he didn't seem to care and continued to smoke hard, as if he wanted to exhale all the pain and longing out of his body with the smoke.

He leaned back on the sofa, closed his eyes, and his thoughts gradually drifted away, returning to that unforgettable day two years ago.

At that time, Qiu Xue chose to leave without saying goodbye, with her pregnant belly, without any preparation on his part.

Whenever it was late at night and everyone was asleep, Xiao Tuobang would always think of those painful memories, his heart filled with endless longing and regret.

Xiao Tuobang had asked himself countless times, if he had been able to understand Qiu Xue better, would everything be different?

If he had cared more about her feelings at the beginning, would she not have left?

Qiu Xue's departure deeply hurt Xiao Tuobang. His heart was like a barren desert, full of loneliness and pain.

For two years, Xiao Tuobang has been trying to forget Qiu Xue and start a new life.

He participated in various social activities, met new people, and even tried to fall in love.

But no matter how hard Xiao Tuobang tried, Qiu Xue's shadow always lingered in his heart.

Her existence was like a curse that he couldn't escape.

He once tried to fill the emptiness in his heart with work, but whenever it was late at night and everyone was asleep, Qiu Xue's figure would always appear in his mind.

Her smile, her gentleness, everything about her made him unable to let go.

Sometimes, he would think that if time could go back, he would definitely cherish Qiu Xue and never let her leave.

But the reality is cruel, time can never be reversed, and he can only endure the pain silently.

Fate always seems to like playing tricks on people.

Just when Xiao Tuobang thought he had been able to let go of the past and start a new life.

Qiu Xue suddenly returned to his life from a distant foreign country with her daughter Xiao Muyao.

Her appearance broke Xiao Tuobang's peaceful life and plunged his heart into confusion and struggle again.

In the days when Qiu Xue had just returned home, Xiao Tuobang had thought of various ways to torture Qiu Xue and to avenge the hatred he had felt in his heart for the past two years.

Xiao Tuobang vented his hatred on Qiu Xue. He deliberately showed indifference to Qiu Xue and even looked for opportunities to make things difficult for her.

He had only one goal, which was to let Qiu Xue experience the feeling of being ignored and bullied.

"Humph, this is the punishment you deserve!"

Every time he saw the grievance and helplessness on Qiu Xue's face, Xiao Tuobang felt an indescribable pleasure in his heart.

But deep down he felt a dull pain, as if something was tearing his soul apart.

Xiao Tuobang became more and more difficult for Qiu Xue, even using vicious words to provoke her.

He hoped that in this way, Qiu Xue would also be able to deeply understand the pain and hurt he had suffered.

Xiao Tuobang once thought that his feelings for Qiu Xue were like a stagnant pool of water, without any fluctuations.

He thought that they were back together just to give his daughter a complete family and to give Xiao Muyao a complete childhood.

However, the moment he saw Qiu Xue, he realized that the love had always been hidden deep in his heart, but was covered by time and distance.

Now, this feeling has been rekindled, and he can no longer ignore the voice in his heart.

Qiu Xue was not as bad as he imagined. She was just a poor woman who needed love and care.

More importantly, Xiao Tuobang discovered that Qiu Xue had always loved him deeply and that had never changed.

Xiao Tuobang decided to let go of the resentment of the past, try to accept Qiu Xue again, and give his daughter a complete home.

"Qiuxue, I know I was wrong. Let's start over." One night, Xiao Tuobang plucked up the courage to come to Qiuxue and said sincerely.

His eyes flashed with determination and resolve, but also revealed a hint of uneasiness and nervousness.

Qiu Xue looked at the man in front of her in surprise, and couldn't help but burst into tears.

She couldn't believe what she heard, but at the same time she felt extremely happy and moved.

She reached out and gently stroked Xiao Tuobang's cheek, feeling his warmth and breath.

"Okay, I do." Qiu Xue said softly, her voice trembling and excited.

Her eyes were shining with love and anticipation, as if she had been waiting for this moment for a long, long time.

Xiao Tuobang and Qiu Xue finally opened their hearts again and accepted each other. They began to work together and manage their family with their heart.

The family of three lived a happy and fulfilling life, as if everything had returned to the good old days.

Just as Qiu Xue and Xiao Tuobang's relationship was gradually heating up, the sudden appearance of Xiao's father and mother broke the peace.

Xiao's mother firmly opposed Qiu Xue to step into the Xiao family's door again. She firmly believed that Qiu Xue was no longer suitable to be the daughter-in-law of the Xiao family.

For Xiao's mother, Qiu Xue's departure and betrayal brought a heavy blow to the entire family, and she could not let go of the past.

Qiu Xue's heart was deeply hurt by her mother-in-law's cold words. Every word was like a sharp sword, ruthlessly piercing her heart.

The past hurts and misunderstandings were like a bottomless chasm between her and her mother-in-law, which could not be crossed.

Qiu Xue painfully proposed to break up with Xiao Tuobang. She hoped to get back her company shares and property, and then completely leave this place that broke her heart.

Xiao Tuobang fell into an unprecedented predicament. He felt as if he was trapped between two immovable mountains.

At this time, Xiao Tuobang was extremely busy with work. He could only devote all his energy to work to temporarily forget the emotional pain.

He works hard, hoping to relieve his inner pressure through career success.

Xiao Tuobang's escape made Qiu Xue feel very confused and dissatisfied, and the misunderstanding between them snowballed...

The deep night is like thick ink that cannot be dissolved, and all around is silent.

Xiao Tuobang withdrew his thoughts and put out the half-smoked cigarette in his hand.

He stood up, dragged his tired body out of the study, walked through the dim corridor, came to the bedroom door, gently pushed it open, and slowly walked into the bedroom.

After entering the bedroom, he went straight to the bathroom and turned on the shower.

Suddenly, warm water poured down, hitting his skin, making a crisp sound.

He closed his eyes and felt the hot water rushing over his body, hoping to wash away his fatigue and worries.

When Xiao Tuobang finished taking a shower, dried himself with a towel, put on a loose bathrobe and walked out of the bathroom, he was suddenly stunned.

Qiuxue was standing in front of the bed, wearing a lace nightgown as thin as a cicada's wing.

Her plump and proud figure is faintly visible against the backdrop of her pajamas, exuding charming charm.

Xiao Tuobang's eyes were attracted involuntarily. He looked at her infatuatedly as if he was under a spell.

Qiu Xue's face was filled with a gentle smile, like a docile little lamb.

She walked lightly to Xiao Tuobang, stretched out her arms, gently hugged Xiao Tuobang's waist, and rested her head on his broad chest.

At this moment, Xiao Tuobang had already put the unpleasantness between them behind him.

He couldn't help but raise his hand, lift Qiuxue's small chin, then lower his head and gently peck her pink lips.

This kiss was as light as a dragonfly touching the water, but it was filled with endless affection.

Qiu Xue's cheeks were slightly flushed, like a ripe apple, shy and cute.

He lifted Qiuxue's chin and pecked her gently, and Qiuxue's cheeks flushed slightly.

Xiao Tuobang couldn't help but give her another kiss, as if he wanted to keep this sweetness in his heart forever.

Their kiss gradually deepened, and their breathing became more and more rapid.

Xiao Tuobang hugged Qiu Xue tightly, feeling her body temperature and softness.

Qiu Xue wrapped her arms tightly around him, enjoying the feeling of intimacy.

They hugged each other tightly again and kissed each other passionately and affectionately.
