Chapter 238 — An Appointment with Tang Yun

The Blossom Guardian

"It is a little early to think about that now." Wei Zhao knew perfectly well what was tormenting Kang **, and he clapped him on the shoulder. "Right now, it is not about whether you and she suit each other. It is about whether Xiaofen will accept you!"

True! With Wei Zhao's reminder, Kang ** suddenly realized that all of this had been his own wishful thinking. He wanted to be with Xiaofen, but Xiaofen might not be willing to be with him!

"If you really have feelings for her, try spending some time around her. Given time, you will naturally be sure of your own heart!" Wei Zhao said. "But whatever you decide, the precondition is that you must not hurt Xiaofen again. You can take the blow, but she cannot..."

"Rest assured, Boss! I understand. Until I am absolutely sure of my own feelings, I will not breathe a word of this to Xiaofen!" Kang ** felt his mind clear all at once...

Tang Yun had slept badly the night before. For the first half of the night her mother had kept her up talking... Talk, it was called, but it was all about Wei Zhao, leaving Tang Yun dizzy and afraid of saying the wrong thing...

It was not easy before her mother finally fell asleep, and by then Tang Yun was no longer very sleepy. Remembering that Wei Zhao's clothes were still with her, she got up and washed them clean for him.

Returning some clothes, what was the big deal?

But then she thought of how merely asking Wei Zhao for a formula had set the whole school buzzing with rumors. If she went to return his clothes in person, there was no telling what people would say. They might even decide she and Wei Zhao had already slept together!

At that thought, Tang Yun began to shrink back. Right, she could ask Liu Xinwen for help. She suddenly thought of her best friend Liu Xinwen. She could have her arrange a meeting with Wei Zhao, say on the school sports field after the next class. Would that not work?

Tang Yun put down the clothes in her hands, walked quickly out of the classroom, and headed toward Liu Xinwen's classroom...

Liu Xinwen wanted to ask her why she wanted to meet Wei Zhao, but the ten minutes between classes were nowhere near enough. With no choice, Liu Xinwen could only agree hastily for the moment, planning to question Tang Yun in detail at noon or during evening self-study.

"Hey, get Wei Zhao from your class out here!" Liu Xinwen was tough and cared about nothing. She simply grabbed a student from Senior Three Class Five and said it to him.

"Oh, wait a sec!" The student thought nothing of it and went straight into the classroom to call Wei Zhao out.

Wei Zhao wondered who was looking for him. He came out of the classroom to find Liu Xinwen. "What is it?"

"Wei Zhao, what exactly is your relationship with Yunyun?" Liu Xinwen had not felt comfortable pressing Tang Yun, so she had come to interrogate Wei Zhao instead.

"Me and Yunyun? You mean Tang Yun, ha..." Wei Zhao looked at Liu Xinwen's expression and found it rather funny. "What my relationship with her is, can you not see it for yourself?"

"Then are you dating her or not?" Liu Xinwen simply asked outright. She was not a coy person. Whatever was on her mind, she said it.

"Not yet." Wei Zhao told the truth. "What did you really come for? Just to ask me this? You do not strike me as that gossipy. With that kind of energy, why not ask whether Kang ** is dating Xiaofen?"

"Just asking!" Liu Xinwen curled her lip, but Wei Zhao's answer left her rather relieved. As she saw it, Wei Zhao did not seem like a man fond of lying. He said what he meant and would not deceive people over such small matters.

"Then are we done? If there is nothing else, I am going back!" Wei Zhao rolled his eyes. Was this girl out of her mind? Coming all this way between classes just to ask this? Even Tang Yun's mother was not as nosy as she was.

"Wait. Yunyun wants you to wait for her under the trees on the left side of the sports field after the fourth period!" After Liu Xinwen finished speaking, she paid no attention to how Wei Zhao might answer and simply turned and walked off.

Under the trees on the left side of the sports field? Wei Zhao rubbed his nose. Could this count as Tang Yun asking him out on her own for the first time?

Back in the classroom, Kang ** asked rather impatiently, "Boss, I just saw Liu Xinwen looking for you. What was it about?"

"Relax, it is nothing about Xiaofen. It is my business." How could Wei Zhao fail to guess what Kang ** was thinking? One sentence put him at ease.

Hearing that it was not about Xiaofen, Kang ** nodded and asked no more.

During the break-time exercises, Wei Zhao saw Zou Ruoming. The kid sat looking thoroughly down on his luck beneath the basketball hoop. Senior Four students did not have to take part in the break-time exercises, so the school did not bother to discipline them in particular.

The so-called "Senior Four" was really a cram class for the college entrance examination. To increase revenue, some key high schools all ran such cram classes. They recruited not only their own Senior Three failures who had missed college, but also failures from other schools or from society. As long as you paid, you could stay in "Senior Four" forever!

Wei Zhao gave Zou Ruoming a cold glance. This man had already been marked for death in Wei Zhao's book. Anyone who dared lay a hand on the people around him, Wei Zhao would never let off lightly.

Across several classes, Wei Zhao spotted Tang Yun and waved to her. Tang Yun glared at him instead, turned away rather shyly, and would not look this way again.

Gu Mengyao and Shen Yushu were forever the focus of most boys. During the break-time exercises they drew many stares, but toward such gazes the two had long since grown accustomed.

Zhong Yongliang stood by the window in the teaching building corridor. His gaze slid from Gu Mengyao to Wei Zhao. Ever since Wei Zhao had appeared, nothing had gone smoothly for him! This man had to vanish from his sight!

Just as Zhong Yongliang was seething over this, the phone in his pocket suddenly vibrated. He took it out and saw to his surprise that it was his father Zhong Fabai calling.

"Dad?" Zhong Yongliang was puzzled. Normally Zhong Fabai rarely called him during school hours.

"Pinliang, Black Panther reached me through his lawyer from the detention center. He says he wants to see you. What do you think..." Zhong Fabai did not know why on earth Black Panther wanted to see Zhong Yongliang, but he dared not refuse casually. After all, Black Panther had taken the fall for Zhong Yongliang. If Zhong Yongliang refused to see him, Black Panther might grow resentful and turn against them at the last moment, and that would be hard to handle.
