護花近衛 - 第297章 關馨的心思 - 墨香閣

"Come home early? Is something the matter?" Guan Xin froze for a moment. It seemed Grandpa really had no idea what had happened to her, nor that she had already been sent home on leave.

"A friend is coming over tonight, the outstanding young man I told you about. Young, yet his medical skills are remarkable!" Guan Xuemin said with a smile. "I want to introduce you two. He is not much older than you, about your age. You should have plenty to talk about!"

"Oh..." The moment Guan Xin heard what it was about, all interest drained away, and before she knew it the shadow of Wei Zhao surfaced in her mind again...

Guan Xuemin did not catch the look on Guan Xin's face. Hearing her murmur assent, he took it for shyness and went on, "Then it is settled. After you get back, have Aunt Liu go grocery shopping with you, and cook a few of your best dishes tonight. Make a good impression on him!"

Aunt Liu was the housekeeper in Guan Xuemin's home, in charge of looking after his daily life and doing the cooking and shopping.

Guan Xin felt rather unwilling, but since this was someone her grandfather held in such high regard, she could hardly refuse him outright. Meeting him would be fine, but anything deeper was out of the question. Her heart had no room for such thoughts now.

Wei Zhao parked his car on the snack street behind the school. He had just gotten out when a fierce-looking man strode toward him. "Hey, kid, do not park here! School is letting out soon, and we need this space for our stalls!"

The fierce-looking man sold stinky tofu on the snack street, and the spot where Wei Zhao had parked belonged to his younger brother's stall. His brother had not arrived yet, so naturally he could not let anyone else take the space.

Wei Zhao frowned. He had not expected parking to come with so many rules. Did this man own the snack street? Even the traffic police had not said parking was forbidden here, yet here was someone looking for trouble.

When Wei Zhao lifted his head, the vicious-looking man was the one who got a fright. Good Lord, he was in trouble now!

"Young Master Lin... it is fine, you park here, it is fine, no problem at all!" The fierce-looking man had seen it all clearly that night, exactly how Wei Zhao had dealt with Zhang Biaogan. A man like that was not someone he dared to provoke.

Wei Zhao shook his head, finding it rather funny. A moment ago the man had looked like a demon itself, and in a blink he had completely changed his tune. "Then I will park here? I will be parking here every day from now on!"

"No problem at all! Young Master Lin, I will have my brother move to another spot. How could we ever get in the way of your parking! Do not worry, I will keep an eye on your car for you. I guarantee no one will dare scratch it!" The vicious man thumped his chest as he promised.

Having his brother move his stall was nothing. If he angered Wei Zhao, then things would truly get serious!

Back in the classroom, he made it just in time for the last evening study period.

The moment he saw Wei Zhao return, Kang Xiaobo hurried over. "Boss, you are finally back! I wanted to talk to you about something..."

"Talk about something? What is it? Go ahead." Wei Zhao glanced at Kang Xiaobo, wondering what he wanted.

"Lend me two hundred yuan, will you?" Kang Xiaobo said, a little embarrassed.

"Two hundred yuan? What for? Come on, you do not even have two hundred left?" Wei Zhao asked in surprise.

"Heh... I overspent my allowance this month. I kept going to see Xiao Fen and bought her a lot of snacks..." Kang Xiaobo looked awkward. "It is the end of the month, so I am broke. I will pay you back when I get next month's allowance!"

"Oh, forget paying it back. Just take it and use it." Wei Zhao handed Kang Xiaobo two hundred yuan. That much money was nothing to him.

"I was thinking of buying Xiao Fen a cheap phone. Two hundred should be enough," Kang Xiaobo said. "Otherwise it is inconvenient to stay in touch."
