Chapter 1456 — Wei Zhao's Farewell
The Blossom Guardian · Page 2 of 2
"Come now, do not be so glum. I am going to seek hope for Xiaoxiao's cure, not leaving forever." Wei Zhao looked at Tang Zhi and smiled. "Here — a kiss, to say goodbye."
"Loathsome..." Tang Zhi's face flushed slightly and she grew coy. Had they been alone together, Tang Zhi would surely have half-yielded and agreed; but with the Eldest Miss and Xiaoshu right there beside them, she was naturally embarrassed.
By now the three of them had long passed the stage of jealous rivalry. Each knew plainly how matters stood, and there was no need to make a show of anything.
"Oh, me, me! Brother Arrow, kiss me too." Shen Yushu raised her hand and volunteered.
"Xiaoshu, stop making trouble!" Gu Mengyao was both annoyed and amused. Wei Zhao and Tang Zhi were flirting with each other — what business did she have butting in? She had ruined the mood entirely.
Even Tang Zhi could not help but burst into laughter. "Then just kiss Xiaoshu."
Tang Zhi no longer felt the old dislike for Shen Yushu. Having spent so long together, she had grown used to her; even Feng Xiaoxiao had accepted her, and one Shen Yushu more or less made no difference to Tang Zhi. Besides, whether anything was going on between Wei Zhao and Shen Yushu, Tang Zhi knew perfectly well.
At most there was a certain ambiguity between the two, but certainly nothing that had developed into a romance; and as for Gu Mengyao's feelings, they drifted this way and that, and Tang Zhi could not be bothered to concern herself with so much.
Still, Xiaoshu's interruption had come at just the right moment, turning a rather subdued atmosphere lively again.
"Ha... I am off. Study hard at home, all of you, and try to get into the same university." Wei Zhao said with a smile.
Gu Pengzhan would make arrangements, of course, but being admitted by one's own effort and paying one's own way to study felt quite different.
Wei Zhao drove a modified Grand Cherokee that Feng Tianlong had prepared for him, with a modified ice coffin in the back. Such a modified vehicle might cause some trouble on the road, but Feng Tianlong had evidently taken that into account in advance: the car bore a plate from the number range reserved for the Secret Investigation Bureau, and inside were various travel permits and papers, enough to guarantee Wei Zhao a smooth journey to his destination.
After a final check of the car, Wei Zhao got in. This time he left the villa at night, and apart from Tang Zhi, who had moved in to live with him, he had asked no one else to see him off.
