Chapter 289 — You Are Not Me, and I Am Not You
The Blossom Guardian · Page 2 of 2
Having Shen Yushu's photo discovered by Kang Xiaobo twice made Wei Zhao a little embarrassed. He'd really have to be more careful from now on. When he'd borrowed the phone from Shen Yushu, he hadn't thought much about it—just using it for a few days as a stand-in, too lazy to change the settings inside. Who'd have guessed Kang Xiaobo would see it?
Somewhat awkwardly, Wei Zhao navigated to the picture menu, meaning to switch the wallpaper. But he'd have been better off not going in—once he did, Kang Xiaobo's eyes went even wider!
There was more than one photo of Shen Yushu in there. And not just Shen Yushu—Gu Mengyao too! And they were all candid shots: eating together, shopping, selfies at home...
Wei Zhao broke into a cold sweat, snapped the phone shut, and stuffed it into his pocket. He glanced awkwardly at Kang Xiaobo, whose face had taken on a look of sheer astonishment!
Now, even if you told him this phone belonged to Wei Zhao, he wouldn't believe it! Never mind that the color was obviously meant for a girl—just judging by those photos, there was no way it was Wei Zhao's!
There was no way Wei Zhao could have so many photos of Gu Mengyao and Shen Yushu. They weren't the kind of revealing private shots, but they were still very personal, intimate snapshots of daily life. How had Wei Zhao gotten his hands on them?
But if the phone wasn't Wei Zhao's, then whose was it?
Still, Kang Xiaobo was clearly not the sort to be careless about what mattered. Though a hundred questions churned in his mind, he could only bury them for now—saying anything would surely make Tang Yun misunderstand.
The taxi pulled up at the inpatient entrance of the hospital. Wei Zhao paid the ten-yuan fare and got out.
"Wei Zhao? Is that you?" A pleasant, delighted voice sounded behind him.
Wei Zhao turned around and saw Guan Xin. "Oh, it's you. Heh, what a coincidence!"
"Yes! Wei Zhao, are you here to visit your friend? I happen to be going to give her an injection. Let's go up together!" Guan Xin was visibly overjoyed to see Wei Zhao.
These past few days, she'd been loitering around the inpatient wing for no particular reason—or perhaps only for the chance to run into Wei Zhao. She'd volunteered to take on the injection duties for this ward, and had gotten on familiar terms with Liu Xinwen, Kang Xiaobo, and Tang Yun.
Only, whenever the prettiest of them, Tang Yun, looked at her, there was a smile on her face but a trace of wariness and hostility in her eyes... Guan Xin understood perfectly well why. The girl was afraid she'd come to steal her boyfriend.
In truth, Guan Xin wasn't really trying to compete with Tang Yun over anything. She wasn't even certain of her own feelings. She simply felt a gratitude toward Wei Zhao that came from the heart, and wanted to see more of him, to talk with him. As for anything beyond that, she hadn't given it much thought.
Tang Yun pressed her lips together, her face a little pale. Liu Xinwen noticed the change in her expression too, and squeezed her hand, murmuring, "What, afraid she's come to steal your man?"
Tang Yun shook her head slightly. "What's so good about him? As if everyone's after him. Let her steal him—saves me from him taking advantage of me..."
