Chapter 771: Shen Wei’s Story
A pair of silver high heels stepped on the floor, and she was donned in a white dress that reached her knee. She looked pure, clean, and beautiful; and she had long, black hair that reached her waist. It was not dyed, and it looked lush under the sun. The twenty-year-old Shen Wei was beautiful and naive; she had a good family background since young and never knew what sufferings in the human world were. When all the university students were preparing to look for a job and their own s.p.a.ce to survive, she was under her parents’ protection and lived a life with no worries.
She was a rich lady, but a simple and innocent one.
The most important thing was that she had not dated yet.
She had just attended her friend’s wedding ceremony that day. If she said she was not envious, that was a lie. Her friend had got married not long after graduation and was fast to act. As for her, she craved love just like those in romance stories—one that she could have for the rest of her life. It did not need to be earth-shattering, but she had to find a man that loved her a lot.
Sometimes, she would wonder what her future family would look like and who her future husband would be.
It was just that no matter how much she imagined, she still did not have a detailed image in her head. Who would it be? Who was it?
Ka! She seemed to have stepped on something.
She raised her foot and picked up a wallet from the floor.
Who lost this?
She held the wallet and shook it. She was not greedy about the money inside because she did not lack money, but she still opened the wallet. In the wallet, there was a stack of cash and a bunch of cards, as well as the person’s ident.i.ty card.
Actually, not many people looked good on their ident.i.ty card photo; but surprisingly, this man’s photograph was surprisingly charismatic. Suddenly, something went into her heart and made her heart go bang, bang, bang.
She heard her fast heartbeat sounds, and it was at that point, she had an amazing feeling.
It was weird as if she was moonwalking through an ocean of humans. One look, and she knew that the person she was waiting for… was him.
Now, she could not wait to meet the real person. Walking on her high heels, she excitedly sent the wallet to the police station and waited for the person there. However, what disappointed her was that she had waited from morning to night, but no one came to collect the wallet. Not to mention the other things in the wallet, there were his ident.i.ty card and a bunch of other cards inside; did he not want them?
It was until she had given up and had lost all hope, someone outside said that someone was coming to collect the wallet. Hurriedly, she stood up and arranged her clothes before opening her eyes wide to see the man that walked in.
Was he tall, short, fat, skinny or…?
The person inched closer, and finally, she saw the person’s facial features much clearly under the light. However, what disappointed Shen Wei was that he was not even the owner of the identification card.
“h.e.l.lo.” He shook hands with the person at the police station.
“I came here to collect the wallet. I’m my boss’ a.s.sistant.” As he said it, he took his phone out and dialed a number. After the phone connected, he pa.s.sed his phone to the person in front.
The officer took the phone and was extremely polite and careful as if the person on the phone was someone that he could not offend.
When he put the phone down, he hurriedly handed the wallet to the man in front and did not do any more checks.
Then, he said, “This wallet was picked by the lady.”
When he wanted to point at the person, he found that Shen Wei who was sitting on the chair had disappeared.
“Where is she?” He asked his other colleagues. “Where did the lady that picked up the wallet go?”
“She left,” someone replied. “She said there was no need to thank her, and it was just out of convenience.”
The a.s.sistant that came to take the wallet put it into his pocket gratefully. He shook his head gently. This generation… there were not many people who would return the property they found to its rightful owner and even fewer would not ask for a reward.
After Shen Wei walked out, she swung her wallet and kicked the leaves on the ground from time to time.
If she said she was not disappointed, it was a lie.
If she was not sad, it was fake.
Now, she regretted not taking a photo of the picture. Even if it was just a small picture on the identification card, she was willing to have it. What a pity, she did not do anything.
At first, she thought she could still see the actual person; but she did not and had even wasted one day.
However, this Shen Wei was still naive and did not take this matter to heart, though she would still dream of the man’s face from time to time, which gradually went from clear to blur.
That night, she went home and was walking with her favorite silver high heels. Bang! She tripped on something.
“That hurts! Who threw their stuff around?” She lamented as she stood back up. When she looked down, she saw someone’s arm, hurriedly covered her mouth, and hid her scream.
Perhaps she was really young and had big guts; she actually poked the person’s arm. Oh, it was hot. She poked again in disbelief. Yes, it was hot; the person was alive. She heaved a sigh of relief. As long as it was not a corpse, all was well.
However, she did not know that people who were alive were more dangerous than people who were dead. The dead would almost scare one, but people who were alive would cause them to be better dead than alive.
She grabbed the elbow and pulled the person in front. Actually, when she touched the elbow, she knew it was a man. However, she did not think too much and just wanted to pull the person up and bring him to the hospital.
One could not deny that she was really a kind-hearted but also a weak woman.
When the man was dragged up, she saw his face and got a fright.
“It’s you?”
It was him?
Yes, yes. It was him. Was he not the owner of the lost wallet?
She would not get the face wrong. It was him. She placed her hand in front of her chest, and her heart was thumping rapidly as if she had fallen in love at first sight that day.
She held the man’s face and slapped it.
“Hey!
“Wake up!”
The man’s eyebrows were just tightly knit together, but he did not stir.
