Chapter 2192 — Selling Goods
The Blossom Guardian · Page 2 of 2
"That's true..." Realizing she had misjudged Wei Zhao, Wang Xinyan felt a little embarrassed. "How about we close this folding door? Otherwise, what if another peddler comes along?"
"That works..." Wei Zhao had been thinking the same thing, but he'd worried Wang Xinyan might suspect ulterior motives—he hadn't expected her to suggest it herself.
The truth was, Wang Xinyan had simply been frightened by that man just now. Of all things to peddle, why condoms? How mortifying!
Wei Zhao casually shut the folding door, and the booth instantly became a small private box, plunged into darkness. With no light source at all, Wang Xinyan gave a startled jump out of sheer reflex...
"Heh... Just pretend it's military training and we're in the tent," Wei Zhao said.
"Mm..." Hearing Wei Zhao say that, Wang Xinyan relaxed somewhat. Thinking about it, she and Wei Zhao had been alone together many times already—there was no need to stay constantly on guard. If Wei Zhao had wanted to do something, he would have done it long ago; he wouldn't have waited until now.
"Uh... me holding you like this... is that okay..." Only then did Wei Zhao realize his left arm was still wrapped around Wang Xinyan. The business with the acne-faced man had made him forget all about it...
"And you still bring it up!" Wang Xinyan was flustered and indignant. "No, it's not okay—take it away, quick!"
"Mm, I'll move it in a bit..." Wei Zhao could tell she wasn't truly angry and smiled faintly.
"Hmph, you're awful—give them an inch and they take a mile!" Wang Xinyan gave a huff, closed her eyes, and ignored Wei Zhao.
Wei Zhao smiled awkwardly, closed his eyes, and went back to cultivating.
In truth, Wang Xinyan wasn't really angry. Honestly, if Wei Zhao hadn't brought it up, she had even grown used to being held by him—she had forgotten she was still leaning in his arms... That feeling seemed so familiar, so habitual, that she no longer had much resistance to it...
Hazily, Wang Xinyan actually fell asleep. Perhaps it was because she had been so tense today, or because in this environment drowsiness came so easily—and with Wei Zhao busy cultivating, there was nothing for her to do anyway—so she drifted off into dreamland...
Wang Xinyan had fallen asleep... And Wei Zhao was astonished to discover that, in fact, when Wang Xinyan fell into dreamland, the effect of her body fragrance was at its strongest, boosting his cultivation speed yet again!
This wondrous phenomenon left Wei Zhao unable to stop. He felt a certain nostalgia for those days of military training—how wonderful it would be if he could hold Wang Xinyan while she slept every day. But Wei Zhao knew that wasn't very realistic!
That fiancé of Wang Xinyan's was a trivial matter—Wei Zhao never regarded Kang Jinglong as any kind of rival at all. What Wei Zhao cared about was Wang Xinyan's own feelings!
