Since yesterday afternoon, Zhan Tingzhi had been pondering one question, why wasn't that girl happy?
"If she were with me, I would definitely make her happy!"
He knew she wasn't from the county town, so he roamed around the outskirts of the county, wondering in which village she might live.
As he passed each village, he asked himself, could she be living in this one?
He didn't know how he had become so dreamy, but he wandered to the entrance road of the county town. There, he heard a girl cry for help and his first reaction was to rush forward.
What he saw was a man and a girl's silhouette from the back, the girl struggling with all her might while the man dragged her away in a certain direction. His sharp instincts told him that this stocky man was trying to take advantage of this small, powerless girl.
Zhan Tingzhi, charging forward, grabbed the girl's arm, and at the same time, swung a punch toward the man's neck.
