Chapter 2386 — Girlfriend

"She's upstairs showering and changing." Gu Mengyao said, "Are you all right now?"
"Mm, I'm fine now. I owe you all a great deal for just now." Wei Zhao said with a smile.
"By the way, Chewing Gum Bro, what exactly did you need Sister Xinyan for?" Shen Yushu asked curiously.
"We'll talk about that in a bit." This matter involved Wang Xinyan's privacy, and Old Master Pi and the others were still in the house, so Wei Zhao could not say much.
"Oh..." Shen Yushu nodded and did not ask any more questions.
After a while, Wang Xinyan came downstairs, freshly dressed. But when she saw Wei Zhao in the living room, also in a fresh set of clothes, she froze on the spot, her mouth falling open as if she wanted to say something, yet she did not know how. And just like that, the atmosphere in the living room turned somewhat awkward!
"Xinyan... thank you..." Wei Zhao looked at Wang Xinyan, overcome with emotion for a moment. He wanted to thank her, yet did not know what to say. Thinking back on that rather ambiguous scene and mood from before, Wei Zhao found himself terribly hard-pressed over just where to place Wang Xinyan in his heart.
"D-don't mention it..." Wang Xinyan stammered.
She had assumed Wei Zhao was asleep, and that once she had changed and come downstairs, she could leave this place as quickly as possible and go back to cool her head for the night. By tomorrow at school, everyone would probably have calmed down; so long as no one deliberately brought the matter up, it would not be too awkward.
What Wang Xinyan had not expected was that Wei Zhao would come out so quickly, and already changed as well! She had only given herself a quick rinse in the upstairs bathroom before putting on her clothes and coming down, so she had not wasted much time. Which meant the situation now proved that Wei Zhao had not been asleep at all—he had simply been pretending just now...
At that thought, a sudden emptiness and disappointment welled up in Wang Xinyan's heart... He... doesn't like me? Otherwise, why would he pretend to be asleep?
After saying that "don't mention it," Wang Xinyan fell silent.
And Wei Zhao, too, scratched his head with a bitter smile, at a loss for what to do! If it were Feng Xiaoxiao, or even Xiaoshu for that matter, Wei Zhao could have faced her calmly. But with Wang Xinyan—though there was a hint of something ambiguous between them, it had never been brought out into the open, and now...
"Be my girlfriend..." Wei Zhao reached out his hand to Wang Xinyan and said, drawing a deep breath.
He was not an irresponsible person, nor was he without feelings for Wang Xinyan. Things had come to this point, and Wei Zhao had to do something. It might be a little too fast, but Wei Zhao felt that if he gave no sign at all, it would be unfair to Wang Xinyan.
It was just that he felt a little sorry toward Feng Xiaoxiao. Though she had agreed to let him find a first wife, wasn't he going about it a little too quickly?
"Huh?" Wang Xinyan was stunned, frozen where she stood. She had never expected that after all that silence, this was what Wei Zhao would come out with!
He... wanted her to be his girlfriend?RQ
