護花近衛 - 第126章 幫忙解圍 - 翰墨軒

"Three times a day, morning, noon and evening. Just heat it in the microwave and drink it, or skip the heating if you like. There are not many rules, not many taboos either. Just don't drink alcohol." Wei Zhao handed Yang Huaijun a bag of brewed herbal medicine. At that moment only two students on cleaning duty remained in the classroom, so no one paid any attention to what Wei Zhao had actually come back to fetch.

"I haven't touched a drop of liquor in ages, and my body can't handle it anyway." Yang Huaijun gave a bitter smile. "This should be enough for a week, right?"

"Yes, exactly a week's supply..." Wei Zhao nodded. "After a week, we'll see how your body is recovering, and then I'll prescribe according to your condition."

"All right, I'll head back first. For a great kindness, no words of thanks suffice. Where should I pick you up tomorrow? At the school again..." Yang Huaijun asked.

"At the school gate tomorrow morning. Park a little farther off and we'll keep in touch by phone," Wei Zhao said after a moment's thought.

After seeing Yang Huaijun off, Wei Zhao turned and headed for the restroom. He had meant to relieve himself earlier, but Wang Zhifeng had called him back, and only now that Yang Huaijun was gone did his body's need make itself felt.

Passing the neighboring Class Nine of the senior year, he caught a glimpse of Tang Zhi carrying a basin, her figure flitting past the doorway. She was probably on cleaning duty, but upon seeing Wei Zhao, the head that had popped out promptly withdrew again.

Wei Zhao smiled wryly. Surely the girl didn't think he had come to her classroom door on purpose to spy on her? Otherwise why hide? He bared his teeth at her in a grin. "I'm going to the restroom."

"Huh?" Tang Zhi was taken aback. Only after watching Wei Zhao's receding figure did she stamp her foot in annoyance. Why tell her he was going to the restroom? This fellow was definitely teasing her...

She really wanted to rush over and dump the basin of dirty water in her hands over his head, but she didn't quite dare. Now and then she dared to pull little tricks to needle Wei Zhao, but something so outrageous she did not dare attempt. Wei Zhao was, after all, a young master; if she angered him and he cast aside his previous pretense of gentility to do something outrageous to her, Tang Zhi would be caught completely off guard.

Only when Wei Zhao had fully entered the restroom did Tang Zhi hurry over, dump the dirty water like a thief, quickly fill the basin with clean water, and flee back toward her classroom as if escaping.

But before she had run two steps, she collided with someone. The basin in her hands slipped from her grasp and its contents flew straight out. "Ah..."

When Tang Zhi saw who it was, she immediately lowered her head in fright. "Director Wang..."

"How do you walk, you student?" Wang Zhifeng was about to explode with rage. He had come to Class Five of the senior year to check whether anything had happened to Wei Zhao; with Yang Huaijun present earlier, he hadn't dared ask too much, so he had planned to inquire privately and make sure there really was no trouble. Yet no sooner had he reached the door of Class Nine than a student came head-on and flung a basin of cold water in his face, leaving him drenched like a drowned rat.

"Director Wang, I'm sorry..." Tang Zhi was at a loss. She was the kind of good student who devoted herself single-mindedly to her studies and kept out of trouble; never had she committed such a serious mistake as drenching the dean of students in cold water. This was no small matter. Though she hadn't been looking where she was going, Tang Zhi knew that was no excuse...

"Sorry? Is 'sorry' enough? What class are you in?" Wang Zhifeng wiped the water from his face, saw that it was clean, and breathed a sigh of relief. If it had been dirty water, he, the dean of students, would have lost all face!
