Chapter 580 — Clearing Up the Misunderstanding
The Blossom Guardian · Page 1 of 2
"Wh-what did he say?" Tang Zhi's heart tightened, and she looked at Liu Xinlan nervously.
"Wei Zhao, ah..." Liu Xinlan deliberately drew the words out. "He was worried to death. Said he'd be right over!"
"Oh..." Warmth flooded Tang Zhi's heart at once, though her face flushed red. She glared at Liu Xinlan with her lovely eyes. "You... you did that on purpose to make me nervous!"
Then she saw that her mother was already beaming, and Tang Zhi grew even more certain that Liu Xinlan had done it deliberately. Earlier, when Liu Xinlan made the call, she had been sitting on the bed, some distance away, so Tang Zhi could not hear what Wei Zhao said on the phone. But Mother Tang was sitting right beside Liu Xinlan, so naturally she could hear every word.
"Yunyun, it seems Wei Zhao still likes you. Tell me, could there be some misunderstanding in all this?" Liu Xinlan had calmed down by now. Wei Zhao's panic just now had been no act; it was genuine worry for Tang Zhi.
Wei Zhao had always been steady, never rattled by anything. Even when trouble came, he would not behave like this. Surely he would only be so agitated when the one involved was Tang Zhi herself.
"I... I don't know." Tang Zhi felt shy, and a faint sweetness stirred in her heart. He really did care about her? Did he love her? Even with her face ruined, would he still come to look after her? But then what was the business with Feng Xiaoxiao?
Tang Zhi's heart began to swing between hope and fear again. As for whether her face was ruined, she no longer gave it any thought...
"That's right, Yun'er. I can see that Wei Zhao likes you. How about this — in a little while I'll have a word with him, and see what he means by this girlfriend of his, and where he really stands!" Mother Tang was delighted too. "I hear that many marriages between great families are unhappy. Those men keep mistresses on the side, and what they truly love is the mistress, not the wife. If that's the case, you still have a chance!"
"Mom, what nonsense are you talking!" Tang Zhi's mood had improved a good deal, so when her mother began to joke, she no longer resisted the way she had before...
Wei Zhao rushed out of the school, got straight into his car, and sped off toward the First People's Hospital. On the way, he called Fat Lai. "Fat Lai, are you back yet?"
"Just got back, heading to the company now to look into the new product launch. Our orders have already passed ten million!" Fat Lai was overjoyed. It was only the first day, and already so many orders had come in! Of course, many of them came from businesses connected to the families at the auction — they had gotten the news at the first opportunity.
"Do you have Chuangshang on hand? Bring a bottle to Room 512 in Ward Two of the First People's Hospital, and hurry." Wei Zhao hesitated, then added, "Bring a bottle of painkiller too."
Chuangshang was already in mass production, so Fat Lai had plenty of samples on hand, and though the painkiller was not yet in mass production, there were still some samples. The deluxe version of Chuangshang, however, was gone; Wei Zhao had just returned and had not mixed up a new batch. But Tang Zhi's injury was fresh, so she did not need the deluxe version — the ordinary one would do the job.
In fact, the doctors at the First Hospital knew about Tang Zhi's wound as well, and that it had been healed with Divine Physician Kang's Golden Wound Salve — only, that salve was not something an ordinary person could buy. It was priceless and unavailable, and even the hospital had none, so they simply had not brought it up.
"I've got them. I'll be right there!" Fat Lai said no more. Having received Wei Zhao's order, he set about carrying it out at once — such was Fat Lai's character. Whatever Wei Zhao said, he obeyed without question.
