Chapter 534 — No More Tang Yun, "Phew..."
The Blossom Guardian · Page 2 of 2
"Then how would you like me to thank you?" Wei Zhao had no choice but to ask.
"Take me out for a big meal. I want something delicious!" Feng Xiaoxiao said.
"I can't afford seafood. Beef noodles. Take it or leave it," Wei Zhao said flatly.
"Oh... fine." Feng Xiaoxiao nodded indifferently. "It doesn't matter what we eat; what matters is who you eat it with."
"..." Wei Zhao hung up, somewhat speechless. He had no idea what had gotten into Feng Xiaoxiao's head — every day it was either hints or confessions. Wei Zhao refused to believe that after he had scolded her a few times, the girl had fallen for him. Was she a masochist or something?
Before long, Kang Xiaobo called back. "Boss, did you and Tang Yun break up? Liu Xinwen says you're ungrateful and that you've thrown Tang Yun over?"
"Huh?" Wei Zhao was stunned. "Thrown Tang Yun over? Broken up? Since when?"
"You didn't know?" Kang Xiaobo was startled too.
"I've been in Yanjing the whole time. How would I know?" Wei Zhao smiled bitterly. "Liu Xinwen isn't lying to you, is she?"
"I don't know either. Who knows what's going on. I called and Liu Xinwen just tore into me, then told me to pass on to you that Tang Yun doesn't care to be with you, that if you don't want her, there's a line of people waiting!" Kang Xiaobo was thoroughly annoyed; the call had been a waste. "Tomorrow I'll ask Xiaofen what's really going on."
"All right, ask for me tomorrow." Wei Zhao frowned. Could there be some misunderstanding? Tang Yun was not so small-minded that she would think he had abandoned her just because he stood her up once.
Less than a minute after he hung up with Kang Xiaobo, Feng Xiaoxiao called again. "Wei Zhao, why did you hang up on me? Is that how you treat a pretty girl?"
Feng Xiaoxiao was truly angry. What right did he have? Why did Wei Zhao always ignore her? Even asking him to buy her a meal, he acted so reluctant, as if she really cared about the meal.
"Is Uncle Feng back yet?" Wei Zhao did not engage with Feng Xiaoxiao's topic, because once he did it would go on forever; he simply steered the conversation elsewhere. He had learned that from Shen Yushu.
"No. Why, are you in a hurry to meet your father-in-law?" Feng Xiaoxiao teased.
Wei Zhao had not expected Feng Xiaoxiao to steer the topic right back with a single sentence. He had to admire her; this girl was truly a match for Shen Yushu — one played dumb, the other was a sly little sprite, and neither was any easy mark.
"Then call me again after Uncle Feng gets back. I'm going to sleep." Wei Zhao finished and made to hang up.
"Hey, wait. When are you taking me for beef noodles? I want a big bowl with extra meat!" Feng Xiaoxiao said urgently.
"When I have time." Wei Zhao truly could not understand what Feng Xiaoxiao was thinking. A bowl of beef noodles — was it worth all this?
