Chapter 265 — A Change of Impression
The Blossom Guardian · Page 2 of 2
In front of Gu Mengyao and his rival, no matter how much pain he was in, he refused to lose face.
"I'm his friend." Su Taizao told the paramedics. "No need for the stretcher. I'll support him."
With Su Taizao's help, An Jianwen made his way out of the restaurant. The restaurant owner had the waitstaff quickly clean up the pile of filth An Jianwen had vomited.
Even so, many of the diners in the restaurant chose to leave. After all, the scene just now had been rather disgusting.
Gu Mengyao and Shen Yushu had lost their appetites too. Just as they were about to call Wei Zhao to leave, they looked up and found him sitting at the table, eating with gusto. Gu Mengyao was momentarily speechless. Hadn't that scene just now disgusted him?
In truth, to Wei Zhao, this was nothing disgusting at all. He had seen far worse. When it was time to eat, you ate.
The restaurant owner, however, felt a bit embarrassed. He refunded all the money Wei Zhao had paid for his meal. Wei Zhao had solved a big problem for him, and besides, Gu Mengyao and Shen Yushu could no longer eat. The owner felt somewhat apologetic.
Seeing Wei Zhao eating so heartily, Gu Mengyao, to her own surprise, did not scold him. Instead, she sat quietly to one side, waiting for him to finish. This man — the more she looked at him, the less she could figure him out. He seemed to know nothing, yet seemed to know everything.
He seemed like a scoundrel and a lecher, yet also like a man of strong principles.
Gu Mengyao was not actually foolish — otherwise she could never have maintained a top-ten ranking in her year at the First High School, where talent was abundant. When her daddy had first assigned Wei Zhao to her side, Gu Mengyao had resisted, been furious, even been baffled as to why her daddy would find a migrant laborer for the job.
But after this period of contact, Gu Mengyao had come to understand that Wei Zhao truly was a capable man. Though she was unwilling to admit it, she had little by little accepted this fact.
"You two aren't eating? If you're not, I'll finish them both?" Wei Zhao asked, looking at the other two fast-food meals on the table.
"You eat them all." Gu Mengyao nodded.
Wei Zhao demolished the other two meals like a whirlwind sweeping away clouds.
"Wow, Arrow-Brand Bro, you're amazing!" Shen Yushu stared in astonishment at the three completely empty fast-food boxes.
"Let's go bungee jumping after you're done." Gu Mengyao was clearly not letting what had happened affect her mood — it had only affected her appetite. An Jianwen had felt utterly unfamiliar to her this time, especially after he had shown hostility toward Wei Zhao. For no reason at all, a faint disgust had risen in Gu Mengyao's heart. The image of the boy-next-door brother had come crashing down.
"Heh... all right." Wei Zhao walked toward the restaurant entrance with Gu Mengyao and Shen Yushu. But just before reaching the door, he cast a meaningful glance at a young man whose face was swollen like a steamed bun, gave a faint smile, and turned to leave.
"Brother Cosmos, they're going bungee jumping!" Little Ma said, his cheeks swollen from being pinched by Shen Yushu, his speech a little clumsy...
