Heart Stealer

Qiu Xue and Xiao Tuobang's relationship is very stable.

Although Qiu Xue occasionally throws a tantrum, acts a little bit temperamental, and gets upset, this does not seem to affect their deep feelings.

Qiu Xue was deeply moved by Xiao Tuobang's tolerance.

On a sunny day, Qiu Xue snuggled on Xiao Tuobang's strong shoulders.

Her pretty face was filled with happiness and sweetness.

Qiu Xue gazed at Xiao Tuobang lovingly and asked softly, "Tuobang, I want to do something for you. Is there anything you want?"

Xiao Tuobang looked at her tenderly and said lovingly, "As long as it's done by you, I like it."

Qiu Xue frowned and thought for a while, then suddenly her eyes lit up and she said, "Then I'll make you a dessert!"

Qiu Xue does what she says.

She began to try making desserts, but her attempts ended in failure.

During a date with Xiao Tuobang, Qiu Xue said with a somewhat frustrated look, "Tuobang, I'm not good at cooking. It seems your wish to eat the desserts I made will be dashed."

Xiao Tuobang patted her shoulder gently and comforted her gently: "Don't be discouraged, take your time, I am looking forward to the dessert you make."

Qiu Xue sighed and said helplessly, "But the desserts I make are never tasty."

Xiao Tuobang smiled and encouraged: "It's okay, I can wait slowly."

Qiu Xue was encouraged by Xiao Tuobang's words and decided to keep trying.

She signed up for a baking course, studied hard every day, and kept trying to make various desserts.

After a period of hard work, Qiuxue's dessert skills have improved significantly.

Qiu Xue opened the oven and a sweet aroma hit her face.

She picked up a piece of dessert, put it in her mouth, and savored it carefully.

"Hmm, it's delicious and melts in your mouth." Qiu Xue said to herself.

Qiu Xue finally made a dessert that satisfied herself, and she wanted to give Xiao Tuobang a surprise.

Qiu Xue packed up the desserts and drove to Jindu Hotel, preparing to give the desserts to Xiao Tuobang to share.

Qiu Xue stepped into Xiao Tuobang's office, but found that he was not there.

Secretary Xiaoying brought a cup of hot tea and said politely, "Ms. Qiuxue, the president just went out for something urgent. Would you like to wait here for a while?"

Qiu Xue nodded and decided to stay and wait.

Qiu Xue took a sip of hot tea from her cup and asked, "Xiaoying, do you know when the president will be back?"

Xiaoying smiled and replied, "I'm not too sure about that, Miss Qiuxue. Why don't you just sit here for a while? The president should be back soon."

"Thank you for your help. I'll wait here." Qiuxue accepted Xiaoying's suggestion with a smile.

Qiu Xue walked gracefully to the sofa beside her and gently placed the carefully prepared dessert on the coffee table.

Her eyes were full of anticipation and happiness.

"Miss Qiuxue, what delicious food did you make this time?" Xiaoying asked curiously.

"This is a new dessert I developed. I wanted to give Tuobang a surprise." Qiuxue answered with a shy smile.

"Wow, that sounds great. The president will definitely like it." Xiaoying said excitedly.

Qiu Xue smiled. She imagined Xiao Tuobang tasting the dessert with a surprised expression on his face. "It's delicious! This is the best dessert I've ever had."

The more Qiu Xue thought about it, the more excited she became. She waited quietly, looking forward to Xiao Tuobang's return.

Qiu Xue sat on the sofa and waited patiently for a long time, but Xiao Tuobang never showed up.

She stood up and paced back and forth in the office, trying to ease the anxiety of waiting.

Inadvertently, Qiu Xue's eyes fell on a corner of the desk.

There was an exquisite brown women's brand-name wallet lying prominently on the corner of the table.

This sudden discovery made her feel a little uneasy.

Qiu Xue approached the table and reached out to touch the wallet, but just as her fingertips were about to touch it, she heard conversation and hurried footsteps coming from outside the door.

Qiu Xue's heartbeat quickened and she quickly withdrew her hand.

The door slowly opened, and a young woman with heavy makeup and sexy clothes walked in intimately with Xiao Tuobang's arm.

Qiu Xue's gaze stayed on them for a moment, then she lowered her eyes, feeling mixed emotions.

Ye Qingxin looked at Qiuxue sitting in Xiao Tuobang's office chair with a look of surprise on her face, "Brother Tuobang, look, there's a woman in your office."

The moment Xiao Tuobang entered the room, he saw Qiuxue. He hurriedly pushed Ye Qingxin's hand away.

She quickly walked over to Qiuxue and explained, "Qiuxue, don't get me wrong. Miss Ye is here to discuss a cooperative project with me."

Qiu Xue looked at Ye Qingxin with suspicion. She obviously didn't believe what Xiao Tuobang said. "Talk about a cooperative project? Then why are you holding hands?"

Xiao Tuobang was speechless after being asked by Qiu Xue.

He had always kept his distance from Ye Qingxin, but the moment Ye Qingxin walked in, she suddenly hugged his arm, catching him off guard.

Xiao Tuobang couldn't understand why this vicious woman would frame him and cause a misunderstanding between him and Qiu Xue.

"I..." Xiao Tuobang was speechless. He didn't know how to explain to Qiu Xue.

At this time, Ye Qingxin stood aside, watching the fierce quarrel between Xiao Tuobang and Qiu Xue with cold eyes.

Seeing that they were in conflict because of her plan, the corners of her mouth rose slightly, revealing an imperceptible smug smile.

Qiu Xue looked at Ye Qingxin's smile and became even angrier. "Xiao Tuobang, you still say you have no relationship?"

Qiu Xue was very angry and she didn't want to hear any explanation from Xiao Tuobang.

She suddenly reached out and grabbed the exquisite dessert on the coffee table. With a "bang", she threw it hard to the ground.

The dessert instantly shattered into pieces, with sugar splattered everywhere.

Xiao Tuobang was stunned. He didn't expect Qiu Xue to be so excited.

Ye Qingxin was also shocked by Qiu Xue's behavior. She originally thought that her plan was flawless, but she did not expect Qiu Xue to have such a big reaction.

"Qiuxue, calm down..." Xiao Tuobang tried to comfort her.

"I can't calm down!" Qiu Xue interrupted him, tears welling up in her eyes, "If you really care about me, you wouldn't have an affair with another woman!" After saying that, she turned around and rushed out of the office.

Xiao Tuobang looked at Qiu Xue's departing back and felt very helpless and regretful.

The autumn breeze blew by, bringing a hint of coolness, but Qiuxue's heart felt as if it was burned by fire and was extremely depressed.

She couldn't understand why Xiao Tuobang, who once swore that he loved her, suddenly betrayed their relationship.

Qiu Xue, filled with resentment but with nowhere to vent, was like a wild beast trapped in a cage, with the rage burning in her heart but unable to find an outlet.

She held the phone tightly in her hand, as if it was her last straw.

Her fingers trembled as she dialed Ye Qingyun's number.

"Hello?" Ye Qingyun's low and magnetic voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Second Young Master Ye, I...I would like to ask you to accompany me to have a barbecue, is that okay?" Qiu Xue's voice contained a hint of bitterness and pleading that was difficult to conceal.

Ye Qingyun answered without hesitation, "Of course! When and where shall we meet?"

Qiu Xue casually mentioned a barbecue restaurant and hung up the phone.

The night slowly descended like a huge piece of black silk, and the city lights lit up one by one, like stars dotted among them.

The streets are bustling with people as they head to their destinations.

Qiu Xue and Ye Qingyun arrived at the barbecue restaurant they were very familiar with on time as agreed upon.

Although this barbecue restaurant is not big, its business is extremely popular.

The store was crowded with people, noisy and noisy.

The diners were either chatting and laughing loudly or enjoying the food to their heart's content, it was very lively.

The air is filled with the rich aroma of barbecue. The unique fragrance goes straight into people's nostrils and makes people salivate.

However, for Qiu Xue at this moment, this tempting fragrance failed to dispel the haze that had shrouded her heart for a long time.

She sat at the table expressionless, her eyes blank, as if she had lost her soul.

When the waiter enthusiastically brought plates of steaming and fragrant barbecue to the table, Qiu Xue just silently picked up the beer bottle on the table and filled the glass.

Then she tilted her head back and drank the beer in the glass in one breath, her movements quick and decisive, without any hesitation.

She never picked up her chopsticks to taste the food that looked delicious.

Ye Qingyun, who was sitting beside her, looked at Qiu Xue's depressed look quietly, and couldn't help feeling worried.

He knew that Qiu Xue must have encountered something extremely troubling her, otherwise she wouldn't be drowning her sorrows in alcohol.

After drinking a few beers, Qiu Xue seemed to have regained some courage.

She raised her head and looked at Ye Qingyun with a dazed look. Her lips trembled slightly as she slowly spoke, "My life has been like a nightmare for a while now..."

Then, she began to tell Ye Qingyun about all the unfortunate experiences she had experienced recently.

Qiu Xue's tone was filled with bitterness and self-mockery. "Second Young Master Ye, it's really not easy to ask you out for dinner. You're not like some people who can't wait to rush over as soon as someone invites them out."

After saying that, she glared fiercely into the distance, as if Xiao Tuobang, whom she hated so much, was standing there.

Ye Qingyun smiled slightly and said teasingly, "Miss Qiu, it seems that you are quite concerned about this 'someone'."

Hearing this, Qiu Xue turned around abruptly, glared at Ye Qingyun, and loudly retorted, "Who cares about him! He's just a fickle butterfly, flirting with other women everywhere!"

As she spoke, she raised her glass again and drank most of the beer in one breath.

Qiu Xue bit into the golden, crispy, and sizzling pork belly as if in a fit of anger.

She picked up a few pieces of fresh and juicy vegetables and stuffed them into her mouth, chewing them voraciously, as if she wanted to swallow all the grievances and anger in her heart along with the food.

"Who are you calling a butterfly?"

An angry shout suddenly rang out, like a bolt of thunder piercing the silent air.

Qiu Xue and Ye Qingyun were so frightened that they trembled all over, and they looked in the direction of the sound almost at the same time.

They saw Xiao Tuobang appear beside them quietly like a ghost, as if he had emerged out of the darkness, catching them off guard.

His face was gloomy, his eyes were fixed on the person who was speaking, and an invisible pressure emanated from his body.

Xiao Tuobang reached out and pulled a chair next to him without saying a word, and sat down steadily.

His movements were slow and graceful, but his tense muscles revealed his inner tension and anxiety at the moment.

After sitting down, his eyes did not move away from Qiu Xue at all.

Instead, they were like two torches, staring intently and passionately at Qiu Xue's every move.

It's as if he wants to see through her appearance to see her innermost thoughts.

Ye Qingyun keenly caught the subtle atmosphere between the two people, and he knew that it was not appropriate to stay here for long.

Ye Qingyun's eyes rolled, and he quickly found a seemingly reasonable excuse and left in a hurry, leaving this small space to Xiao Tuobang and Qiu Xue.

Seeing Ye Qingyun walking away, Xiao Tuobang could no longer hold back. He hurriedly grabbed Qiu Xue's hand and confessed the whole story to her.

"Qiuxue, please listen to my explanation. I really don't know why Ye Qingxin did this. I have nothing to do with her."

Qiu Xue looked at Xiao Tuobang's sincerely annoyed eyes and believed what he said. "Okay, I'll trust you for now. I hope you won't do it again."

When Xiao Tuobang heard Qiu Xue's words, the stone in his heart finally fell to the ground.

He took Qiu Xue's hand and said gently, "Since you don't like me associating with Ye Qingxin, I will stop this cooperation plan immediately."

Qiu Xue looked at Xiao Tuobang, her eyes full of trust and love, "Okay, I believe you."

The misunderstanding between the two was finally resolved, and they reconciled and hugged each other tightly.
