Stealing Your Heart

Across the table, Shen Peichuan’s chopsticks froze in his hands. “You don’t like what you’re currently studying?”

Sang Yu’s gaze lowered as she toyed with a piece of flour tortilla with her chopsticks. “Of course I like what I’m studying. That’s why I chose this major in the first place. It’s just that…”

Shen Peichuan dug his scrutinizing gaze into her face. “What’s the matter then? Are you regretting your decision?”

“Not really. I just decided to change my mind.” A sweet smile broke across Sang Yu’s face as she looked back up at him.

“Tell me about it.”

Sang Yu finally picked up the battered piece of flour tortilla and dipped it in the spicy sauce before eating it in one go. She chomped down on it and swallowed hard before saying calmly, “I already told you, but you didn’t get it.”

“Huh? I didn’t get what you said?” Shen Peichuan looked at her, confused. Everything she said was as plain as day, and he was sure that he understood her perfectly.

Sang Yu decided to change the topic and said, “Why not you try this dish?” She knew he was not someone who was good at reading in between the lines. But all of a sudden, she felt that she was not ready to let him know how she felt either.

As anticipated, Shen Peichuan simply nodded and dropped the topic without thinking any further.

After the hearty meal, the two left the restaurant and headed for the car. “This meal was really a good deal. You only spent a hundred, and the food was delicious,” Sang Yu said with a bright smile.

She felt that it was a good bargain compared to the earlier restaurant.

The only reason why everything was overpriced at that restaurant was because of the atmosphere—and she did not see the need to pay for that.

“I’ll send you to your uni,” Shen Peichuan offered.

“It’s fine, I’ll just see you off. My uni is nearby so I’ll just take a cab,” Sang Yu rejected. She figured he must be busy.

“It’s okay, I still have some time. Let’s go,” he replied.

Since he insisted on sending her over, Sang Yu thanked him and got in the car.

“You don’t need to thank me. You’re the one who’s done me a favor today.”

Shen Peichuan knew his way to her university, but instead of stopping right in front of the school, he pulled over at a distance.

“I’ll drop you off here. See you,” he bid.

Shen Peichuan had learned his lesson after what happened last time. He did not want Sang Yu to go through the whole ordeal again.

After all, she was a girl, and he took it on himself to protect her.
