Chapter 1020 — Feng Xiaoxiao Throws a Fit
The Blossom Guardian · Page 1 of 2
A text message could have been sent at any hour and would only arrive once the phone was switched on, but a phone call had to have been made just now.
Wei Zhao checked the missed calls first. Only one was from Tang Zhi; all the rest had actually come from Feng Xiaoxiao!
Wei Zhao was taken aback, but he checked the text messages first anyway, and at the sight of them he was left somewhat speechless — every single one of them had been sent by Feng Xiaoxiao!
"Darling, I miss you!" This one had come in the middle of the night.
"I got up early today, so come pick me up a bit sooner!" This one had come in the morning.
"I'm all ready, heading downstairs now?" Also in the morning.
"Huh? Wei Zhao? Why haven't you replied to my text?" Still the morning.
"Wei Zhao, are you coming to pick me up or not? Why aren't you here yet? We're going to be late!" Again the morning.
"Boohoo, have you forgotten about me?" Morning.
"Your phone is still off, so you really aren't coming to get me..." Morning.
"Wei Zhao, you bastard, if you don't want me anymore at least say so! I got up in the middle of the night to dress up for nothing!" Morning.
"I'm taking a cab to school myself, I can't wait any longer!" Morning.
"Why didn't you come to school today? Where are you? What happened?" This one had come in the forenoon.
"Why is your phone still off? What on earth happened?" Also forenoon.
Wei Zhao smiled bitterly at that long string of messages from Feng Xiaoxiao and slapped his forehead in something like resignation. Only then did he remember that yesterday he had promised Feng Xiaoxiao he would pick her up for school this morning, but Uncle Qing's business had held him up, and he had not gone to school.
And Yunyun? He wondered how she had gotten to school. He checked the messages again, and beneath that great mass of Feng Xiaoxiao's texts he finally found one from Tang Zhi.
"Wei Zhao, Uncle Qing came to take me to school this morning. He said you needed rest after healing his injuries. I'm fine, so rest easy!"
Reading Tang Zhi's message, Wei Zhao understood. So Uncle Qing had taken her to school that morning. Since Wei Zhao had not gotten up, and Uncle Qing knew that Wei Zhao picked Tang Zhi up for school every day, he had naturally taken that duty upon himself. But he knew nothing of this sudden business with Feng Xiaoxiao, and clearly the young miss and Shen Yushu had not thought of Feng Xiaoxiao either.
After all, Feng Xiaoxiao usually drove herself to school. Who could have known that today of all days she would have made an appointment with Wei Zhao?
Wei Zhao sighed and decided to call Feng Xiaoxiao first.
"Wei Zhao, you finally called me! I'm so happy — you called your little wife first!" Feng Xiaoxiao's delighted voice came over the line.
Wei Zhao had meant to apologize to Feng Xiaoxiao; judging by her messages, her grievance ran deep, and he had indeed let her down, making her wait all morning for nothing. But before he could get a word out, Feng Xiaoxiao cried out in high spirits, and the apology that had already reached the tip of his tongue had to be swallowed back down.
"I was healing someone's injuries and lost track of time, so I didn't get up this morning," Wei Zhao said.
"Mm, I know. I knew you wouldn't ignore me for no reason. See, you didn't even bother with your first wife, you called your little wife first! Sister Yunyun is going to be jealous!" Feng Xiaoxiao said happily.
"Xiaoxiao, what nonsense are you talking? Who's jealous?" Tang Zhi said, rather helplessly.
