Stealing Your Heart

“You don’t have to blame yourself. Even if you do, I wouldn’t care less,” Qin Ya replied in her usual indifferent tone.

Su Zhan stared at her for a long time before he spoke. “I don’t really care. I’m just doing what I think is right.”

Qin Ya looked at him and quickly turned away.

Even though light could not reach the pit they were in, it was still evening outside and the sun was just beginning to set.

After hours of searching, Shen Peichuan and Zong Jinghao still could not find either Qin Ya or Su Zhan.

“There’s no way the two of us can search the entire mountain. They should be able to hear us by now. Did they get into trouble or something?” Shen Peichuan asked worriedly.

They had no idea if there were any beasts that roamed the forest. Since they were only minutes behind Su Zhan, the latter should be able to hear them.

Yet, all they got was the quietness from the forest and nothing else. It worried Shen Peichuan even further.

Zong Jinghao could recognize his friend’s worried face. “I heard there are no wild beasts in this forest, so they’ll be found. Get someone out here to help us search.”

It would be dangerous for them to continue the search alone in the dark. They tried calling Su Zhan when they were in the forest, but since there was no signal, the call did not go through.

Now that they were out of the forest, they tried calling him twice again, only to get the same result. Shen Peichuan let out a deep sigh and ordered his fellow policemen to help search for Su Zhan and Qin Ya, preferably before it got completely dark.

After issuing his order, he turned to Zong Jinghao and suggested, “Why don’t you head back first? I’ll coordinate the search here.”

Zong Jinghao checked the time and shook his head. “I’ll wait for a little longer.”
