Chapter 1081 — Wei Zhao's Coldness
The Blossom Guardian · Page 2 of 2
Wei Zhao might call her a brain-dead girl and a little silly girl, but in truth Qiu Lingshan was not the least bit silly or brain-dead — otherwise she could never have sat in the position she held today!
Qiu Lingshan felt that Wei Zhao had deliberately said such things and acted so coldly. Earlier, in the hospital, when Wei Zhao healed Liu Bojia, he had been so exhausted that his head was drenched in sweat and he was worn out; yet today, having expended even more true qi, how could he possibly be perfectly fine?
True, as Wei Zhao said, perhaps General Weiwu had also become an expert at the peak of the late Yellow Stage, but there must be a reason for that. Even if Wei Zhao had nothing better to do with his time, he would not raise a dog's strength for no reason!
"Wait..." Having worked all this out, Qiu Lingshan hastily called out to stop Wei Zhao!
Hearing her words, Wei Zhao could not help but frown inwardly! The reason he had acted so coldly was precisely because he feared that Qiu Lingshan, overcome with gratitude, might do something like offering herself to him! The relationship and atmosphere between them had already been rather ambiguous before; now that Qiu Lingshan had broken through, it was quite likely she might do something impulsive!
Wei Zhao's willpower might be firmer than most, but with beauty before him, if there were extreme enticement and temptation, he might well give in! Of course, that was not what Wei Zhao wanted to see!
At present, Wei Zhao defined Qiu Lingshan only as a friend on good terms — at most, a somewhat ambiguous confidante! There was still a certain distance between her and a lover!
Although Wei Zhao thought Song Xiaoniur was quite nice—good looks, good figure—he feared that if he really got involved with her, she would only grow more brazen and demand he help her with this and that. Wei Zhao simply did not have that much time to deal with her!
Besides, in Wei Zhao's view, taking a lover really was no big deal; as long as Tang Zhi did not object, it was nothing worth fussing over.
But right now Wei Zhao truly did not have time to spare for helping Qiu Lingshan solve her case—there were still so many of Feng Xiaoxiao's wishes left unfulfilled. Wei Zhao could not afford to let himself be distracted by other matters!
So, in summary, Wei Zhao decided it was better to be a little colder toward Qiu Lingshan and keep their relationship from advancing by leaps and bounds.
And as Wei Zhao rose to leave, he was rather displeased at heart as well, thinking: if only Song Xiaoniur did not come with so much trouble, how wonderful that would be.
"Is there anything else?" Wei Zhao asked mildly.
"You must be tired? Why not rest a while before you go? Shall I cook you something?" Qiu Lingshan asked softly, showing not the slightest change in her manner because of Wei Zhao's words.
"Heh..." Wei Zhao could not help but smile bitterly, then frowned: "You brain-dead girl, are you coming on to me the whole time because you want me to push you down?"
