Stealing Your Heart

Sang Yu dashed forward and reached out to part the man’s hair. As suspected, she saw Shen Peichuan’s face hidden underneath. How did he end up here?

“Captain Shen.” Sang Yu called out and softly tapped his face, but he showed no signs of waking up.

“Haonan, go get help right away,” ordered Sang Yu nervously.

“You know him, Ms. Sang?” asked Wang Haonan as he stared at Sang Yu with a stunned expression on his face.

“Go get help now!” instructed Sang Yu sternly. She was too worried, and she ended up raising her voice.

“Okay, I’ll go right away,” said Wang Haonan. He finally regained his composure and ran ahead. There were pebbles on the ground, and he slipped and fell a little. However, he didn’t waste any time before he got back up and hurried.

Sang Yu wanted to carry Shen Peichuan up, but the latter was too heavy. She couldn’t even get him off the ground. When she saw the dried blood on his head, her heart ached like an invisible claw was tightening its grip on her heart. Her eyes instinctively reddened with tears.

“Ms. Sang,” said the college student, Wang Wen, who was also a teacher at school.

Most villagers there shared the surname of Wang.

Sang Yu acted like a desperate drowning woman who had just gotten ahold of a floating straw. She requested in a worried and anxious tone. “Quick, help me take him to the hospital.”

Wang Wen crouched down and offered, “I’ll give him a piggyback ride to the village.”

With Sang Yu’s help, Wang Wen managed to get Shen Peichuan onto his back. Wang Haonan, on the other hand, said, “I’ll get the principal to ride his tricycle over.”

Upon finishing his piece, Wang Haowen ran back to the school.

Wang Wen was dripping sweat as he asked, “Sang Yu, you look extremely anxious. Do you know the guy well?”

Sang Yu murmured an affirmative reply.

Wang Wen’s gaze shifted downwards as he continued pushing forward. The principal showed up with his so-called tricycle soon after. “Get in,” said the principal.

The vehicle the villagers nicknamed a tricycle was basically a small, three-wheeled truck with a carriage attached to its back. The villagers used carriages like that to carry their harvest into their storage space during harvest seasons.

A few people could stay in the front seat, but it would not be spacious. Sang Yu got to the back where the carriage was and suggested, “Let’s place him in the carriage.”
