Stealing Your Heart

Chapter 1062

Nan Cheng had only just exited Jiang Mohan’s office when his phone rang. Accepting the call, Li Xiaohui’s furious voice instantly blared through his speakers.

He stared at the shut office door as if he were able to look through the thick wood to the despondent man inside.

Even though Jiang Mohan did not remember Zong Yanxi anymore, his moods still fluctuated madly when it came to her.

Maybe I was wrong to have prevented him from remembering Zong Yanxi. I have to help him get her back!

“I’ll be there in a minute.” He told Li Xiaohui before striding for the elevator. ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

Shortly, the elevator came to a stop on the first floor. Li Xiaohui was already waiting in the lobby. When she heard the sound of the elevator doors opening, she swung her head around to look.

“Ms. Li.” Nan Cheng greeted as he walked over.

She must have seen Zong Yanxi, that’s why she calls me in such a hurry.

“Did that woman come here to reconcile with Jiang Mohan?” Li Xiaohui crossed her arms before her chest, a disdainful sneer curling her lips.

Nan Cheng nodded.

Li Xiaohui was a woman who was used to getting what she wanted. Everyone had always doted on her and catered to her every whim. Never had she been looked down upon or not gotten something that she liked.

Yet Zong Yanxi’s earlier actions had clearly shown how little she respected Li Xiaohui.

Needless to say, the latter was extremely unhappy about it.

“Shameless woman!” She spat viciously.

Nan Cheng stared at her, mentally thinking: You’re from an influential and wealthy family, but why don’t you have the slightest bit of decorum when you talk? You sound like a shrew!

“I have a plan.” He suggested carefully. “But you’ll have to be the one to carry it out. As you know, I’m Jiang Mohan’s assistant, which means I’m not in the best position to do this. He’ll definitely fire me if he finds out that I’m involved.”

“What plan?” Li Xiaohui asked suspiciously. She had not forgotten the humiliation she suffered at the hotel last time.

Even though that plan had been hers, it failed because of Nan Cheng’s mistake. He was not well prepared, leading to her embarrassing herself before so many people.

“You have to think carefully before accepting it.” He warned. His brain was going a mile a minute as he calculated the chances of his plan succeeding.

The more he thought about it, the more confident he was that this plan would work. After everything was done, Zong Yanxi would definitely get back together with Jiang Mohan.

This is the best I can do to help Jiang Mohan.

“What’s there to be afraid of? I’ve never lost in my entire life.” Li Xiaohui lifted her chin arrogantly.

“Fine, but this is not the right place to talk. Let’s go somewhere else. There can be no mistakes this time.”

Noting how confident he was, smug delight welled in Li Xiaohui. Even the person closest to Jiang Mohan is on my side. How can that ex of his possibly compare to me?

They went to someplace quieter so they could discuss the details of the plan further.

Once they were on the same page, they agreed to cooperate with each other.

They would each have their own parts to play.

Standing up, Li Xiaohui prepared to leave. In a triumphant tone, she said, “Rest assured I’ll definitely treat you well, provided this plan succeeds in getting rid of Zong Yanxi and I obtain my rightful place beside Jiang Mohan.”

Nan Cheng merely smirked in response, not saying a thing in reply.

At the same time, Zong Yanxi went out with Zhuang Zijin.

She planned on leaving tomorrow. Zhuang Zijin’s mental state had not been very well for the past two days, so Zong Yanxi planned on bringing her back home to rest properly.

She had already brought her grandmother around to see whatever the older woman wanted to. There were no more regrets.

“Are you coming with us or flying back to Thailand?” She asked Tawan.

“I need to head back. There are some matters I have to attend to.”

“Then I’ll book you a flight tonight.”

“There’s no need for that.”

“Let me do it.” Zong Yanxi continued sincerely, “You’ve helped me a lot. Think of this as a token of my gratitude.”

Tawan was unable to refuse her after that.

Right then, Zhuang Zijin suddenly said she wanted to eat some red bean cakes. Glancing around, Zong Yanxi spotted a dessert shop across the road. She turned to Tawan and suggested, “Keep an eye on my Grandma for me please. I’ll go buy some for her.”

“I’ll go.” He offered. There were a lot of vehicles on the roads at this time of the day.

“Alright.” Zong Yanxi guided Zhuang Zijin over to sit down by the nearby pond. “Thank you.”

“You’re welcome.” With that said, Tawan headed toward the dessert shop across the road.

Just as he reached the other side safely, a silver van abruptly screeched to a halt on Zong Yanxi’s side of the road.

Several men climbed out and came over to stand before the two women.

“What do you want?” Zong Yanxi hurriedly moved in front of Zhuang Zijin, protecting her. Her brows furrowed deeply as she stared at the men.

“Are you Zong Yanxi?” The leader questioned.

She kept quiet, not admitting nor denying it.

Pulling out his phone, the man checked the photo he had been given and grinned. “We know it’s you even if you don’t say anything.”

With that said, he ordered his men to grab the women. If she had been alone, Zong Yanxi would have fled immediately. As it was, Zhuang Zijin was too old to run with her. There was no way she would be

able to escape with her grandmother.

Left with no other choice, she screamed for help. “Tawan! Tawan – Mmph!”

Tawan came out of the shop with a bag of red bean cakes in hand. Just in time, he saw a man covering Zong Yanxi’s mouth before shoving her inside a van. Panicking, he instantly ran across the road.
