Chapter 1296 — Are You Threatening Me?

"Think nothing of it, no need for thanks. Since you and Xiaoxiao hit it off, we can count as friends!" Wei Zhao accepted Xu Shilan as a friend entirely for Feng Xiaoxiao's sake.
"All right, then how much for the medicine you gave me? We may be friends, but I do not want to take advantage of you on the consultation fee." Xu Shilan nodded and asked.
"Forget about money. If we were not friends, I might not have acted even for money." Wei Zhao waved his hand. "Take it as a gift, no charge."
"That will not do. One thing is one thing, and my headache is a long-term trouble. I will have to ask you for medicine again in the future, so I cannot always take it for free?" Xu Shilan said.
"That will not happen. The medicine I gave you is only for a while. But Doctor Guan Pharmaceuticals will soon put its pain-relief pills on the market, and then you can just buy them yourself. That is my prescription, with the same effect." Wei Zhao said.
"Ah! Doctor Guan Pharmaceuticals?" Xu Shilan widened her eyes, then glanced back at Sister Wang, and blushed with embarrassment. "Do you mean Guan Xuewen's Doctor Guan Pharmaceuticals? The one that just opened a while ago and just launched a product?"
"You know it? Right, I think I had Fatty Lai call to invite you as a guest, and you turned him down." Wei Zhao recalled.
"Uh..." Xu Shilan stuck out her tongue. "Sorry, I did not know that company had a share of yours. If I had known earlier, I would have come! I hope you do not mind!"
"It is nothing, just a new product launch." Wei Zhao did not care at all. "Back then we just wanted some star power."
"Well, then can I be your spokesperson? Do not worry, no pay, free as well!" Xu Shilan felt she would be uneasy if she did not do something in return.
"Sure, if you have the time." Wei Zhao did not mind at all, a star effect would be nice.
Hearing Xu Shilan's offer, Sister Wang did not stop her. After all, Xu Shilan owed Wei Zhao an enormous debt of gratitude today. She had thought this bout of headaches would again come to nothing, yet in a sudden turn of fortune, Wei Zhao had resolved the trouble!
With this, she would no longer have to watch Zhao Qibing's face, and Wei Zhao looked far more reliable than that Medicine King Zhao who bristled all over like he was stuck with lightning rods.
"Then it is settled!" Xu Shilan nodded, as if she insisted on being Wei Zhao's spokesperson no matter what.
Feng Xiaoxiao listened from the side to Xu Shilan's past and felt she was a pitiful soul, not even as happy as herself, a short-lived ghost! Yet Feng Xiaoxiao offered no sighs, afraid of disturbing Wei Zhao's treatment, so she sat quietly aside until the dust had settled, when she said excitedly, "Xu Shilan, then I can see you often from now on!"
"Hehe, yes, Xiaoxiao, come and play with me often!" Xu Shilan smiled. "Mr. Lin has my number, you can call me then."
"Call me Wei Zhao, Mr. Lin sounds awkward." Wei Zhao said.
"That works, then do not call me Miss Xu either, call me Xu Shilan or Xiaohan." Xu Shilan nodded and said.
"By the way, you went to Zhao Qibing for treatment before?" Wei Zhao suddenly remembered the phone call he had overheard between Su Jiaonang and Zhao Qibing outside the restroom on the first floor of the stadium, and so he asked.
"Yes, I went... but what Zhao Qibing demanded was really too hard for me, so I did not get treated by him." Xu Shilan said with a rather unnatural expression.
"That is just as well. Best not to be treated by him, his treatment can easily kill." Wei Zhao warned her.
"Ah? Kill?" Xu Shilan froze.
"Nothing much, just do not go looking for them again." Wei Zhao did not explain further.
The car rolled slowly along the road and arrived at the Starlight Hotel in Songshan City, where Xu Shilan's celebration banquet was being held. The entertainment company had invited a number of celebrities to attend the banquet.
