Chapter 351 — A Fleeting Tranquility
The Blossom Guardian · Page 2 of 2
Earlier, at the hospital, Wei Zhao had only had her kiss his cheek. But now their relationship had clearly moved a step closer — so would he want to kiss her on the lips?
Tang Yun did not dare follow the thought any further, yet inside she felt not the slightest revulsion... In the past, whenever she saw the hero and heroine kiss on television or in a novel, she would find it disgusting; if a man ever kissed her mouth to mouth, she was sure she would be sick to her stomach... But now, not only did she feel no urge to vomit — deep down there was even a trace of anticipation.
Wei Zhao had eaten slowly at first, afraid Tang Yun would not have enough; but once she had finished, he swept away everything left on the table like wind scattering clouds, leaving Tang Yun staring, dumbstruck.
"Did... did you eat your fill?" Tang Yun had not expected Wei Zhao to have such an appetite. He did not look plump, yet he could put away so much.
"I'm full," Wei Zhao said with a nod.
"Then... shall we go back to the classroom?" A faint reluctance rose in Tang Yun's heart; she did not want to part from Wei Zhao so soon.
"Let's walk around the sports ground for a bit." Wei Zhao stood, gathered up the trays, and walked out of the cafeteria with Tang Yun, setting the trays down carelessly by the door.
The harsh midday sun made Tang Yun narrow her eyes. She raised a small hand to her brow to shield herself from the glare and watched the students frolicking on the sports ground. A feeling of happiness welled up in her.
Just as she was about to leave this school, she had met Wei Zhao. Tang Yun wanted to cheer — yet deep in her heart there was always a faint sense of unease, as though Wei Zhao did not truly belong to her, as though the happiness before her eyes was only fleeting.
In her daze, a large hand caught her small one again. Tang Yun came back to herself, hesitated a moment, then gripped that hand back with all her strength. "Which university do you want to test into?"
This was the first time Tang Yun had worried about their future together; she was afraid this happiness would vanish in an instant.
"I don't know. I don't mind." Wei Zhao shook his head. Wherever Gu Mengyao applied, he would apply — of that there was no doubt. But to set Tang Yun at ease, he smiled and said, "Wherever you test into, I'll test into."
"Mm..." Tang Yun's face broke into a smile, bright in the sunlight, utterly at ease. The stone in her heart finally dropped — though she was still a little worried. "But what if one of us doesn't score high enough?"
"Money can fix it." Wei Zhao shrugged indifferently. "Your worries are unnecessary."
"Nouveau riche!" Tang Yun scolded with a laugh, yet she was truly delighted by how much he valued her.
The two of them walked into the shade of the trees and found a stone step to sit down on.
Tang Yun seemed to have a particular fondness for this patch of shade; she always liked to come here. She propped her chin on her hand and quietly savored the tranquility of the moment.
Wei Zhao stretched lazily, and just as quietly kept her company.
But... this brief tranquility — someone wanted to shatter it...
For Wei Zhao saw Gu Mengyao and Shen Yushu walking toward him hand in hand! Gu Mengyao was as cold and frosty as ever, while Shen Yushu was chattering away with a grin...
