"Of course, we'll do everything we can!" Guan Xin nodded.
"There shouldn't be any need for that—Arrow-Brand Bro's color is getting better and better. He must already be healing himself!" Shen Yushu had been watching Wei Zhao's changes the whole way.
"Oh? That's wonderful!" Tang Zhi too turned to look at Wei Zhao in the back of the car. Sure enough, his color was much improved. Tang Zhi breathed a sigh of relief.
At Shen Yushu's words, the taut string in Guan Xin's heart finally slackened. So long as Wei Zhao was all right, that was enough! Otherwise, she would have been consumed by guilt for the rest of her life.
When Guan Xuewen learned that his granddaughter was unharmed, he was first delighted; but hearing that Wei Zhao had been left at death's door on her account, he was startled, and rushed out of the villa himself. He looked gravely at Wei Zhao in the trunk and exclaimed, "Hurt this badly?"
"Grandpa Guan, Wei Zhao can heal himself. There shouldn't be any major problem—you needn't worry too much!" Tang Zhi was always respectful toward Guan Xuewen; she knew he was Wei Zhao's business partner and his elder. "We came here just to wait and see. If any other problems arise, we'll have to ask for your help. After all, this is probably the worst injury Wei Zhao has taken yet..."
"Very well!" Guan Xuewen was not surprised to hear that Wei Zhao could heal himself. Wei Zhao was a doctor—and a formidable divine physician at that—so self-healing was no wonder. Still, healing while simply lying there was something Guan Xuewen had never heard of.
But Wei Zhao was a cultivator, and ordinary rules did not apply to him. So Guan Xuewen hurriedly helped Tang Zhi and the others move Wei Zhao into the villa.
Once Wei Zhao was settled, Gu Mengyao and the others sat in the living room, and the atmosphere turned somewhat awkward.
Though Tang Zhi had said on the road that she did not blame Guan Xin, Guan Xin still felt uneasy. Wei Zhao had taken such serious wounds for her sake—she truly did not know how she could ever repay him!
For a girl—especially a beautiful girl—giving herself in return is the finest repayment a hero can receive! Though it sounds a little trite, it is an eternal truth: the hero saves the beauty, and the beauty loves the hero. And in Guan Xin's heart, she held no small fondness for Wei Zhao.
But now, even if Guan Xin wished to give herself in return, Tang Zhi would not agree. Guan Xin was, after all, a little older, and had been working for some time, so her social experience was naturally richer than that of Tang Zhi and the others. She saw at a glance that Gu Mengyao and Shen Yushu likely harbored feelings for Wei Zhao as well.
Of course, it might simply be that they were the best of friends—Guan Xin was relying only on a woman's intuition.
"Tang Zhi, I've put Xiao Yi to no end of trouble this time. Because of my family's affairs, he's been dragged into injury—this old man is truly ashamed!" Guan Xuewen sighed. "Here, I apologize to all of you, for delaying your travels..." (To be continued.)
