Stealing Your Heart

He frowned. Why is it switched off? There’s nowhere else she could go to except school, and the school is practically empty at this hour. He turned towards the man and asked, “Did she say where she was going?”

The man shook his head and replied, “No, but she’s probably on her way to the crematorium. Where else would she be taking the body to, right?”

“Got it.” Shen Peichuan took a look at the time. The person working at the crematorium should have gone off duty by now…

He was about to step out of the office when he suddenly remembered something and called out to the man, “Is the address to her old house mentioned in the file?”

“It’s in Jiang County.”

“Do you have the exact address?” Shen Peichuan asked.

“I don’t remember what it is, but it is stated on the file.”

“Give me the file,” Shen Peichuan said and headed back inside the office.

The man retrieved the file and handed it over to him.

“You may get off work now,” Shen Peichuan told him as he glanced at the address on the file. Jiang County is a rural area, and it’s a little far away from B City. I planned on sending someone there with Sang Yu if I wasn’t able to make it on time. She’s a girl, after all. Judging by the looks of things now, she has probably gone off on her own…

He closed the file and slumped against his chair, feeling worried about her safety as there was no way for him to track her exact location.

In the end, he got into his car and set a course for Jiang County on his GPS before driving off.

Little did he know that Sang Yu had yet to leave B City. As she wasn’t planning on coming back, she had to complete the withdrawal procedures from the university first.

Shen Peichuan had his men look her up at dawn, but they weren’t able to find anything on the train and plane tickets purchased under her name.

“You mean she hasn’t bought any plane or train tickets?” Shen Peichuan felt his heart skip a beat. How is she heading back then?

“That’s right, sir. It’s possible that she took a bus or cab, but we can’t really say for sure. Most of the buses don’t pick up their customers from the station, and a lot of people don’t purchase the tickets with their real name either.”

“All right, I understand.” Shen Peichuan hung up the phone after saying that.

Still worried, he decided to have a look at her old house.
