Chapter 1856 — Invitation: "We Are Your First and Second Wives," Shen Yushu Said Solemnly
The Blossom Guardian · Page 1 of 2
"I forgot what happened before? What exactly did I forget? Yushu, are you trying to scare me silly?" Wei Zhao looked at Shen Yushu in confusion, having no idea what she was trying to pull this time.
"Uh..." Seeing that Wei Zhao did not look as though he had lost his memory, Shen Yushu asked tentatively, "Then... who is your girlfriend?"
"My girlfriend?" Wei Zhao froze slightly, a trace of confusion passing through his eyes. He was about to blurt out a name, but it seemed to be right on the tip of his tongue, yet he could not say it. Had he only just awakened, leaving his mind not quite clear yet? After a moment's thought, however, he remembered the name. "Feng Xiaoxiao, of course. Didn't she go to the Ice Palace to cultivate? Why are you suddenly asking me that?"
Yet after saying this, Wei Zhao could not shake the feeling that something was off. He simply could not put his finger on what it was.
"Feng Xiaoxiao..." Yushu suddenly understood. So Wei Zhao had only forgotten Tang Zhi; he remembered everything else perfectly. Shen Yushu had originally wanted to pretend that Gu Mengyao was his first wife, but it seemed that would not work now.
Gu Mengyao blinked at Shen Yushu, signaling her not to meddle any further. It seemed Wei Zhao really had forgotten Tang Zhi...
"It's nothing. Yushu has always been a little neurotic. You know that." Gu Mengyao glared at Wei Zhao. She would settle accounts with him later. He had already woken up, so why had he not said anything? What a pervert!
Yet while she cursed him inwardly, Gu Mengyao felt something strange stirring in her heart. She even found herself blaming those three nuisances for showing up at precisely that moment. What would have happened if they had not appeared? Had Wei Zhao seen her? Why had he been spying on her? Could it be that he liked her?
The more Gu Mengyao thought about it, the more unsettled and uncertain she became.
"Granny Sun, thank you for looking after me and taking me in these past few days." Wei Zhao came to himself and respectfully expressed his gratitude to Granny Sun.
"Little Divine Healer, there's no need to be so formal. You cured the chronic illness I've suffered from for years. If anyone should be giving thanks, it should be this old woman thanking you!" Granny Sun hurriedly waved her hands. "As for taking you in, it was merely a matter of circumstance. The chance to show my gratitude was Heaven's arrangement."
"How did you know she was Granny Sun? These past few days... have you been conscious the whole time?" Gu Mengyao was not foolish. Hearing Wei Zhao's words, she immediately realized what they implied. Her face reddened as she glared furiously at him.
"Of course not... Before this, I could only sense the sound of you talking. I only woke up after Yaoyao finished giving me the medicine just now..." Wei Zhao hurriedly explained. As for using his perception to see what was happening outside, he kept that part hidden. If he told the truth, Miss Gu would probably blow her top.
"Hmph!" Miss Gu snorted. She did not fully believe Wei Zhao, but neither did she challenge him.
"Granny Sun, about what happened earlier..." Wei Zhao glanced at Granny Sun, hesitating. After all, what had happened before was far too shocking and bizarre for an ordinary person like her. Wei Zhao was afraid she might go outside and blab about it.
"Earlier... this old woman's eyes must have played tricks on her. I didn't see a thing..." Granny Sun shook her head. "The three of you are clearly no ordinary people. I won't cause you any trouble..."
Wei Zhao nodded, though he was still somewhat surprised by Granny Sun's composure. Three formidable experts had simply vanished! Then again, Granny Sun probably had no idea what formidable experts even meant.
