Stealing Your Heart Chapter 519


    Liu instantly felt a pang of regret. He was not sure if bringing Sang Yu here was the right decision. He


    looked at her helplessly, hoping that things would not turn into a total disaster.


    “Good luck,” he said, sending her in.


    Sang Yu looked at him and nodded. She pushed the door opened and went in. Inside the room, a huge


    and dark-colored table sat right in the middle, making the atmosphere seemed heavy and serious.


    Shen Peichuan’s brows knitted the moment he saw Sang Yu. What on earth is she doing here?


    “Get out, you have nothing to do here.” His voice echoed sternly in the cold air.


    Sang Yu rubbed her hands nervously as she stood by the door. Her heart pounded heavily as she


    looked at Captain Song, but she stood her ground. “Everything happened because of me, I feel that I


    have a need toe here and exin things,” Sang Yu said.


    Captain Song scoffed and replied, “Sure. Since Shen Peichuan refused to say a single word, why don’t


    you tell me what happened?”


    “This has nothing to do with him, I was the one who initiated it,” Sang Yu admitted.


    The captain raised his brows as he found the girl amusing. He leaned into his chair and questioned,


    “But the two of you were hugging in the photo. How is it possible that he has nothing to do with it? He’s


    someone who has a good name to keep. Do you know what kind of effect this would bring onto him?”


    Sang Yu did not know how to exin the photos. But she knew things were really serious.


    Nevertheless, she clenched her fist and insisted, “I don’t care if you believe me, but I won’t change


    what I say because it’s true. I’m the one at fault here and I hope you won’t punish Chief Shen.”


    To everyone’s surprise, Captain Song chuckled and looked at the two of them. The stern look he had


    on his face just mere moments ago vanished all of a sudden.


    He knew Shen Peichuan’s character and that he would never do something like this. Captain Song


    knew there must be some misunderstanding the very moment he saw the news.


    But as a public officer, this kind of scandal will tarnish Shen Peichuan’s reputation, and the public might


    mistake this as an abuse of power. People might think that he was trying to get his way around with


    women.


    Sang Yu was getting anxious because Captain Song was not saying anything but staring at them. She


    finally lost it and cried out, “I know I’m young, but I’m legally an adult. Chief Shen is still not married, is


    there a problem with us dating? Is this against thew?”


    Shen Peichuan was bewildered. “Sang Yu, I…”


    “I just don’t understand why people have to keeping at you as if it were your fault! I’ve already told


    them a hundred times that I was the one who did it, but nobody would believe me! Everyone is so hard-


    headed that they never want to listen to me!” Sang Yu did not wait for Shen Peichuan to say a word


    before she unleashed a tirade of frustration.


    Captain Song frowned andmented, “I didn’t know she’s this stubborn.”


    Right at this moment, someone opened the office door in a rush and whispered something in Captain


    Song’s ear.


    His smile vanished and the captain’s face became serious again. “Alright, you may go now,” the captain


    said after letting out a sigh of relief.


    He moved his mouse around and starting typing away on his keyboard after the officer left. True to the


    officer’s word, he could no longer find anything about Shen Peichuan on the inte.


    Instead, the person who first released the photos came forward with a statement, saying that the


    photos were edited because that person held a grudge against Sang Yu and wanted to get back at her.


    An apology for causing disruption was also directed towards the public and all public officers in the


    statement.


    It seemed like Su Zhan found the culprit who first uploaded the photos and got the person to issue a


    statement after talking things through with the school. As awyer, Su Zhan handled the whole issue


    wlessly without doing any damage to Shen Peichuan and Sang Yu. Regardless of whether the


    photos were real, the issue was solved in the end. Besides, the Department of Public Rtions had


    alsomunicated with many mediapanies about pulling down those photos. Even rted


    keywords were no longer avable on Weibo.


    Given the circumstance, things would die down in days.


    As long as the public stopped talking about it, the issue would eventually fade away. Given how there


    was other interesting news that would gain attention on a daily basis, the people would soon find


    anotherpelling story to talk about.


    Meanwhile, Shen Peichuan was still trying to figure out what was going on.


    The captain had told him that he would be punished, but it was taking unusually long for the former to


    say how he would be punished.


    “Captain Song, this is negligence on my part. I promise this won’t happen again. Is it okay if you let her


    go first?” Shen Peichuan inquired politely as he looked at Sang Yu from the corner of his eye.


    He knew Captain Song did not want exnations. He had always focused on solving the issue rather


    than listening to excuses.


    Upon hearing his request, Captain Song finally looked up and said sternly, “She’s involved in this, how


    can I just let her off the hook like this? By the way, how did you even meet such an eloquent girl?”

    Just as Shen Peichuan was about to answer the question, the captain continued, “That being said,


    what she said is true. You’re both single and it’s totally okay for both of you to date. But you’ll have to


    keep it low profile. We serve the public, and hence, we should also set a good example.”


    “Noted, captain,” Shen Peichuan answered quietly.


    “Write me a report and hand it in tomorrow. Make sure you reflect on your mistake and mean what you


    write,” the captain added.


    “Yes, sir,” Shen Peichuan responded.


    “Alright, that’s all. You may leave,” Captain Song said. But before Shen Peichuan turned and left, the


    captain snapped his fingers and said, “Oh, this just urred to me. I hope you’re aware of how old you


    are. Your girlfriend is still so young. I bet she’s still a freshman student! Make sure everything is low-key


    so I don’t have to deal with any more drama.”


    “Yes, sir. And sir, do you happen to want some tea?” Shen Peichuan asked sheepishly.


    “What tea? Get out!” the captain shouted and looked at his broken teacup.


    Shen Peichuan smiled and bowed before leaving. He grabbed Sang Yu by the hand and rushed out of


    the office. I’d better get out quick. Who knows what’s gonna happen next?


    Captain Song grinned as he watched them leave. But his face changed in a split of a second and he


    ordered someone toe clean up the mess.


    Sang Yu was still having a hard time processing what just happened. Things had taken a drastic turn in


    just a short time. “So what’s the situation now? Are we off the hook?” she asked.


    “Yeah,” Shen Peichuan said, exhaling a long breath. He was d that the whole matter was finally


    settled.


    But he gave it a second thought and said, “Well, at least that’s what I think.”


    Zong Jinghao and Su Zhan popped up in his mind. It must be them. Coincidentally, Shen Peichuan saw


    Su Zhan the moment he came out of the police station.


    “It’s your treat today,” Su Zhan stated as he looked at the couple walking out hand in hand.


    “Come on, enough PDA. We just settled a scandal!” he reminded them.


    Hearing this, Shen Peichuan quickly let go of Sang Yu’s hand.


    Sang Yu nced at him and lowered her head silently.


    Shen Peichuan realized his action might have been hurtful and he tried clearing his throat to ease the


    tension.


    Meanwhile, Su Zhan opened the car door for them before hopping in the driver’s seat.


    “What a day! Why don’t we call Jinghao toe along and have a meal with us?” Su Zhan suggested


    as he started the car.


    “Sure, it’s on me!” Shen Peichuan’s voice came from the front passenger’s seat. He purposely sat in


    front, thinking that a young girl like Sang Yu would want to keep some distance.


    Su Zhan looked at him from the driver’s seat and thought about how dumb his dear friend was. Sang


    Yu was young and she had everything written on her face. She obviously wanted to sit with Shen


    Peichuan, but Shen Peichuan was ying coy all of a sudden.


    Su Zhan sighed and said, “Give a call to Jinghao then.”


    Shen Peichuan took out his phone and dialed a number, but nobody picked up. He tried again to no


    avail.


    He then tried calling his house and the office, but still, he could not reach Jinghao. Even Guan Jing was


    not reachable.


    Su Zhan and Shen Peichuan were perplexed. They knew that Jinghao would never switch off his


    phone. Most importantly, ever since Lin Xinyan left, Zong Jinghao spent most of his time at his office.


    There was nowhere else he could be if he were not at work.


    Where the hell is Zong Jinghao? He’s too old to go MIA for fun…
