Chapter 1368: Chapter 1229: Second Uncle, Have You Abandoned Me? (2)
Handling a drunk man naturally wasn’t difficult, with a few moves he was pinned to the ground.
Shen Zui dropped the shirt covering his head and said with a frown, "Send this person to the police station, immediately..."
Shi Nuan was originally still in a daze, but upon hearing Shen Zui’s words, she quickly sat up and buttoned her shirt.
Shen Zui stepped forward and worriedly called out, "Nuannuan..."
Lv Nan Nan was among those who stepped forward with Shen Zui.
Lv Nan Nan squatted in front of Shi Nuan, her face already streaked with tears. She said, "I’m sorry, Nuannuan, I shouldn’t have left you alone!"
Shi Nuan’s eyes trembled slightly; she didn’t speak, just shook her head lightly.
Shen Zui asked, "Nuannuan, are you okay, are you alright?"
Shi Nuan was not okay. At that time, her hair was disheveled, her face pale, and she had indeed been quite frightened just before.
But she didn’t want to show her weakness in front of Shen Zui and still nodded to indicate that she was fine.
Yet the more she acted like this, the more Shen Zui blamed himself. Holding Shi Nuan’s hand, his eyes shimmered with tears as he said, "I’m sorry, Nuannuan, it’s all my fault, I should have come sooner, should have come sooner..."
Saying this, without a word, he pulled Shi Nuan into his arms.
Shi Nuan instinctively struggled, but Shen Zui held her tightly; she couldn’t break free.
Thinking of her previous despair and helplessness, at this moment, she truly needed a shoulder for comfort.
She trembled in Shen Zui’s arms, seeking warmth.
Shi Nuan had never been this discomposed, not even a few months ago when framed by Li Guirong and her daughter in the police station, not as discomposed as she was now in the police station.
Her shirt had three buttons undone; fortunately, there was a layer underneath, but still, a button had come loose.
Her hair was disheveled, even though He Meisui helped her tidy it on the way to the police station, but her pale face, bloodless lips, and weak steps... Undoubtedly declared the fact that she had almost been violated!
And that’s not all!
Shi Nuan felt that everything that happened before was like a nightmare swirling in her mind; she wanted to shake it off, but the lewd laughter of the man kept looping, looping...
The police asked her questions, yet she was somewhat resistant to recalling, yes, resistant to recalling; she didn’t want to remember those things, didn’t want to...
But the police forced her to recall, even Shen Zui, He Meisui, and others told her that only if she spoke out about what she experienced could the man be punished...
Thus, she began to recall, describe, her thoughts suddenly thrown into a dark little box.
She stood in the middle of the box, shouting, crying out, but no one paid attention to her, no one cared for her...
She felt despair, sadness, pain, helplessness, at a loss...
And at that moment, in the darkness, a boy dressed in a white shirt appeared.
His face blended in a halo of light so that she wanted to see him clearly but couldn’t see him no matter what.
But the boy gently squatted down, grabbing her hand.
He said to her, "Nuannuan, don’t be afraid, I will always protect you, always..."
Tears fell drop by drop from Shi Nuan’s eyes; she said, "No one can protect me, no one can protect me, no one..."
The boy looked at her, his eyes clear and deep, beautiful like stars in the dark night.
He said, "There will be, you have to trust me, there will surely be..."
Then, in a blink, the boy disappeared. Her fear re-emerged in her heart; she was just about to cry out when suddenly she heard someone call her: "Nuannuan, Nuannuan..."
She quickly looked toward the voice.
And then, she saw Song Yansheng.
She was overjoyed and shouted, "Second Uncle..." and immediately ran over and threw herself into his embrace.
She cried in his arms, crying so very sorrowfully.
She said, "Second Uncle, I was so scared, just now I was so scared, I hoped for you to appear and save me, truly hoped so much, hoped so much..."
She said, "Second Uncle, I don’t understand why there are so many bad people in this world; I haven’t offended anyone, but they always want to hurt me..."
She said, "Second Uncle, I don’t know whom I can rely on in the future, who truly loves me, cares for me, protects me, I only have you..."
She said, "Second Uncle, I only have you..."
She was so upset that she forgot she said a lot, but Song Yansheng never responded.
It was only when she was exhausted from crying that she leaned in Song Yansheng’s arms, her voice had become very low.
She said, "Second Uncle, I’m so tired; I want to rest. Second Uncle, will you stay with me please?"
Song Yansheng finally responded, but his reply instantly plunged her heart into the depths.
