Chapter 899 — The Eldest Miss Takes Advantage?
The Blossom Guardian · Page 2 of 2
She truly did not know. She only knew that if she lost Wei Zhao, she would be very, very sad...
"I'm sorry... I always bring you trouble..." The eldest miss gently stroked Wei Zhao's cheek and murmured.
Shen Yushu ran to the villa gate. Seeing that it was indeed Tang Zhi, she opened the door, though she was at a loss for what to say.
"How is Wei Zhao?" Tang Zhi asked anxiously.
"Still the same..." Shen Yushu let Tang Zhi into the villa and said, "You can see for yourself in a bit. Anyway, I think Shield Bro should be fine — he's really amazing!"
Tang Zhi frowned and thought, what use is what you think? You are no master prophet.
"Over there — that's Shield Bro's room." After leading Tang Zhi into the villa, Shen Yushu pointed out Wei Zhao's room and said to her.
Tang Zhi glanced around the ground floor of the villa, then asked casually, "Where do you all sleep?"
"Upstairs..." Shen Yushu answered without thinking.
"Oh. Ha." Tang Zhi breathed a quiet sigh of relief.
"Ah — no, the rooms down here are guest rooms. Shield Bro is staying upstairs with Sister Yaoyao now." Shen Yushu realized she had let something slip and hurried to correct herself.
"Oh. That's nice." Tang Zhi nodded.
"Nice?" Shen Yushu blinked, her eyes going wide, and then she understood — Tang Zhi simply had not believed a word she said.
Shen Yushu shrugged. That mouth of hers — why did it have to run so fast? A regular chatterbox, she was. She had worked so hard to fool Tang Zhi earlier, claiming Sister Yaoyao and Shield Bro were taking a shower, and now the lie had crumbled on its own.
Tang Zhi entered Wei Zhao's room, and the first thing she saw was Gu Mengyao sitting at the edge of the bed. The young miss seemed unaware that anyone had come in; her right hand rested on Wei Zhao's cheek. Tang Zhi's brows knit instinctively, and an uncomfortable feeling stirred in her chest.
Tang Zhi had already let her anger cool. She had come here with no intention of quarreling with the young miss — she only wanted to stay by Wei Zhao and see whether he was all right. But Gu Mengyao did not have to be so shameless! Wei Zhao had fainted; how could she take advantage of him like that?
"Ahem, ahem!" Tang Zhi cleared her throat twice. "Men and women should keep their distance. Young miss, have some self-respect..."
Gu Mengyao had not noticed Tang Zhi's arrival, and the sudden voice startled her. Her face flushed at once, and the hand on Wei Zhao's cheek trembled; she snatched it away, like a mistress caught in the act by the lawful wife, and said with a note of grievance, "I... I just saw that Wei Zhao's face was a little dirty, so I was wiping it for him. Don't misunderstand..."
The young miss was tripping over her own words.
