Heart Stealer

After seeing her senior brother off, Zhang Sufang walked slowly with heavy steps back to the spacious and bright living room of the Jing family to continue working.

But she was absent-minded and had no interest in her work.

Mrs. Jing sat on the soft sofa. She put down the teacup in her hand and looked at Zhang Sufang gently, as if she could see through her inner thoughts.

Zhang Sufang hesitated for a moment, then she made up her mind and mustered up the courage to ask, "Mrs. Jing, I want to talk to you. Is that okay?" Her voice was firm and powerful, as if she wanted to release all the courage in her heart.

Mrs. Jing looked up and saw Zhang Sufang's serious expression. She smiled and said, "Of course, Sufang, what do you want to talk about?"

Zhang Sufang walked to the sofa next to Mrs. Jing and sat down, and immediately blurted out all the words that had been in her heart for a long time.

"It's like this, Madam. I think Grandpa Jing has recovered very well and doesn't seem to need any special care. I want to go out and see the world while I'm still young. So, I want to say goodbye to you."

Mrs. Jing had long noticed that Zhang Sufang had been in a low mood these days.

"Sufang, have you found a new place to live?"

Zhang Sufang shook her head slightly, "Not yet, but I will find it as soon as possible."

Mrs. Jing said with concern: "Sufang, you don't need to move out in a hurry. You can continue to live in the Jing family until you find a house. In fact, I hope you can stay and chat with me occasionally and share your experiences."

Zhang Sufang stood up and said with a smile, "Mrs. Jing, thank you for your understanding and support. I will find a house as soon as possible and move out. In the meantime, I will continue to take good care of Grandpa Jing."

Mrs. Jing nodded and looked at Zhang Sufang with a smile, her eyes full of reluctance.

Jing Tianxin's peaceful life becomes complicated by You Yuwei's reappearance.

He was caught in a dilemma: on one side was Zhang Sufang, with whom he had just confirmed his relationship, and on the other side was his ex-girlfriend You Yuwei, whom he could never forget.

This emotional entanglement made him feel unprecedented confusion and pressure.

In order to escape this complicated emotion, Jing Tianxin began to find excuses to work overtime and stayed home very late every night.

Zhang Sufang noticed Jing Tianxin's estrangement, and her heart was filled with loss and sadness.

On this day, Jing Tianxin decided to finish work early. He wanted to try to make up for neglecting Zhang Sufang.

When he drove back to the gate of his home, he unexpectedly saw Zhang Sufang and Xiao Tuobang having an intimate conversation.

Jing Tianxin knew that Zhang Sufang and Xiao Tuobang had an unfinished love affair in the past, and he immediately felt an inexplicable jealousy.

Jing Tianxin did not stop the car, but turned the car around and drove towards a nearby bar.

He wanted to numb his emotions through alcohol and forget his current troubles.

Under the dim lights of the bar, Jing Tianxin drank one drink after another, trying to calm the turmoil in his heart.

Late at night, Jing Tianxin returned home drunk.

His mood was complicated and confused. Under the influence of alcohol, he staggered to Zhang Sufang's door and knocked hard.

Zhang Sufang opened the door and saw Jing Tianxin, who was drunk. A hint of surprise and worry flashed in her eyes.

Before she could react, Jing Tianxin hugged her and kissed her desperately.

Zhang Sufang was frightened by Jing Tianxin's actions. She pushed Jing Tianxin away and slapped him hard.

The slap was so crisp and loud that it instantly woke Jing Tianxin up.

"Master Jing, how could you do this to me!"

There was a tearful tone in Zhang Sufang's voice and her eyes were red, obviously she had just cried.

Jing Tianxin touched his cheek, realized his own gaffe, and apologized hastily.

"Sufang, I'm sorry, I...I don't know what I'm doing."

Zhang Sufang was very flustered and she tried hard to calm herself down.

She looked at Jing Tianxin and said seriously: "Master Jing, I think it's time for us to break up. I don't want this kind of relationship. I hope we can go back to being good friends."

When Jing Tianxin heard what Zhang Sufang said, he felt a sharp pain in his heart.

He knew he had to take responsibility and not let Zhang Sufang continue to suffer.

"I'm sorry, Sufang. I know it's too late for me to say anything now, but please give me some time to deal with my relationship with You Yuwei. I don't want to give up on our relationship just like that."

Zhang Sufang looked at Jing Tianxin with complex emotions in her eyes.

She frowned slightly, pursed her lips, and finally shook her head, saying in a firm tone: "Master Jing, it's getting late, I want to rest early. You should go." After that, she sighed softly, turned back to the room, and slowly closed the door.

Jing Tianxin left Zhang Sufang's room in a daze. His steps seemed a little staggering, as if he had lost support.

He felt as if his heart was torn apart and the whole world was collapsing in an instant.

He returned to his room and lay on the bed like a body without a soul, staring at the ceiling with empty eyes. He recalled every moment he spent with Zhang Sufang.

Every scene was like a sharp knife, piercing his heart.

Jing Tianxin woke up the next day with a splitting headache.

He rubbed his temples with his hands, trying to ease the pain.

He thought about what happened last night and felt extremely regretful.

Jing Tianxin took a deep breath and mustered up the courage to walk to the door of Zhang Sufang's room.

He hesitated for a moment, then raised his hand and knocked gently on the door.

Zhang Sufang opened the door and saw Jing Tianxin, a hint of surprise appeared on her face.

A hint of doubt flashed across her eyes, but she quickly regained her composure.

Jing Tianxin looked at Zhang Sufang and apologized sincerely again.

"Sufang, I know I was wrong last night, and I really regret it. I want to completely draw a line between me and You Yuwei. I only love you. Please give me a chance to make up for my mistake."

Zhang Sufang was deeply touched after hearing this.

But she still bit her lip, shook her head, and said, "Tianxin, I know what you mean, but I can't forgive you easily. I need time to think about it."

A hint of disappointment flashed in Jing Tianxin's eyes, but he did not give up.

He nodded and said, "Okay, I'll wait for you. No matter how long it takes, I will wait for you."

After saying that, he turned and left, leaving behind a determined back.
