Chapter 742 — A Group Photo

The Blossom Guardian · Page 2 of 2

"Yao Yao, chewing gum bro is back. Should we ask him to take a group photo with us?" Shen Yushu took the digital camera out of her bag.

Senior year would soon be over, and three years of high school life were about to end. Today, as it happened, there were no classes, so Gu Mengyao and Shen Yushu had brought a camera and taken some photos around campus, recording this last stretch of high school life.

"Why would we go looking for him?" Gu Mengyao was rather tempted, though she asked in return.

"After graduation, chewing gum bro will be leaving..." Shen Yushu's voice was somewhat downcast. "Yao Yao, you were right. Chewing gum bro can't stay with us forever; there will always be a day when we part..."

Shen Yushu's words made Gu Mengyao's heart tighten. Wei Zhao was leaving? Yes, in the end he was leaving... High school was over—what reason did he have to stay here anymore?

The people at her father's company who were hostile to her had all been driven away by Wei Zhao, and her troublesome suitors—Zhong Yongliang and An Liwen—had both had their kidneys cut out and were in the hospital. Wei Zhao's mission could be considered successfully completed...

Perhaps once high school graduation came, once she and Xiaoshu had gone off to university and moved into the dorms, Wei Zhao would no longer stay in the villa either.

What would he do? Rent an apartment with Tang Zhi and live together?

At the thought of that possibility, the young lady's feelings turned complicated. She had been living together with Xiaoshu and herself, but now Tang Zhi would be living with them too... Was she supposed to just give away her own share of happiness?

But what good would refusing do? Wei Zhao wasn't hers in any sense—what right did he have to stay by her side? Just because of a thirty-thousand-yuan salary? Gu Mengyao found it somewhat laughable. Wei Zhao didn't even bat an eye at three million, so what was thirty thousand to him?

"Then let's keep a memento..." Gu Mengyao sighed. "You text him."

Shen Yushu pulled out her phone and quickly sent Wei Zhao a short message.

Wei Zhao was bored out of his mind when his phone buzzed. One look told him it was a text from Shen Yushu.

"Come to the sports field and take a commemorative photo of me and Sister Yaoyao?"

Wei Zhao was slightly taken aback. In the past, the young lady would never have let anyone know about her connection to him at school. What was going on today? Could this have been Xiaoshu's idea?

Wei Zhao didn't reply to the message either. He simply stood up and walked toward the classroom door, trusting that Shen Yushu would understand what he meant.

Sure enough, not long after Wei Zhao stepped out, the young lady and Shen Yushu followed him out together. In the corridor, Shen Yushu called out to him: "Arrow Brand Bro!"

Gu Mengyao hesitated a moment, wanting to say something, but then she thought: plenty of people already knew about her relationship with Wei Zhao, so what was there to be careful about? Besides, she had already declared to Tang Zhi that she would compete with her for Wei Zhao. Hiding things now would only make it look as though she were afraid of her.

At that thought, the young lady cast off her earlier pretense of unfamiliarity with Wei Zhao. She lifted her head and tugged at Shen Yushu: "Xiaoshu, why don't we take a group photo here in the corridor? The class sign will be in the shot too."

"Okay!" Shen Yushu ran over and handed the camera to Wei Zhao. "Take a group photo for us!"
