Chapter 502 — My Dad Wants to See You!
The Blossom Guardian · Page 2 of 2
He said a word to Guan Xuemin and Fatty Lai. The three of them had agreed to go to the hotel's tea restaurant for a late-night snack, but clearly Wei Zhao would not be able to make it.
At the hotel entrance he flagged a taxi and gave the driver the name of Feng Xiaoxiao's hotel. The Songjiang International Hotel was not far from the hotel where Wei Zhao was staying, but it stood on the other side of the auction venue.
The car stopped at the hotel entrance. Wei Zhao paid the fare, and saw Feng Xiaoxiao standing prettily at the door, waving to him. Wei Zhao frowned slightly. At a time like this, Feng Xiaoxiao was still acting so warm—was she waiting for Feng Tianlong to get the wrong idea?
"Wei Zhao, here!" Catching sight of him, Feng Xiaoxiao cried out excitedly, her little hand waving back and forth.
"Where's your father?" Wei Zhao walked up to her, ignoring her enthusiasm.
"Oh... my dad..." Feng Xiaoxiao had long since prepared her answer. "My dad got a call at the last minute and had to go to a meeting. He told me to entertain you first; he'll be back soon!"
Anyone else would certainly not have believed her. What a coincidence—calling Wei Zhao over and then having to leave on business the very next moment?
But Wei Zhao actually did believe it. As he saw it, Feng Tianlong might have a little more freedom than he did, but not much more; when a mission came, it came—it might be morning, it might be the middle of the night. So Wei Zhao nodded without the slightest suspicion. "Where shall we wait?"
"I haven't eaten yet. My dad told me to treat you to something first!" Feng Xiaoxiao was rather astonished. She had not expected Wei Zhao to be so easy to fool! By rights, Wei Zhao was not such a gullible person—back at school, no matter what she said, he never believed her. What was wrong with him today? But though puzzled, she was not so foolish as to ask; she could only keep it to herself and see how things unfolded.
"Oh, then let's get something to eat." Wei Zhao had eaten dinner early, and had originally planned to have a late-night snack with Fatty Lai and Guan Xuemin, but Feng Xiaoxiao's phone call had summoned him here.
"Ah? All right, then let's—let's look around nearby and see if there's anything good to eat!" Feng Xiaoxiao had not expected Wei Zhao to agree so readily either, and she grew all the more puzzled.
"Can't we eat here?" Wei Zhao asked strangely, pointing at the Songjiang International Hotel behind her. An international hotel—how could it not serve food?
"This..." Feng Xiaoxiao hesitated, then said, "It's very expensive here... I don't have enough money..."
Feng Xiaoxiao was staying in an economy room, and Feng Tianlong had paid for it. The dishes at this hotel were none of them cheap, and she had brought only a few thousand yuan with her on this trip; naturally she did not want to spend it all at once.
"Heh, my treat." Wei Zhao was slightly taken aback, then smiled. He had not expected Feng Xiaoxiao to have such an endearing side.
