Chapter 3080 — Yaoyao's Outburst
The Blossom Guardian · Page 1 of 2
Given the way things stood between Wei Zhao and Gu Mengyao, she was sure that if she simply said the word, Wei Zhao would accept her out of consideration for her pride—but that was not what the eldest daughter wanted. The love she longed for did not need to be earth-shaking, but it certainly should not be charity!
Why was it that Tang Zhi could, Feng Xiaoxiao could, Wang Xinyan could, and even Sun Jingyan could? Was it because Tang Zhi was beautiful, Feng Xiaoxiao was forward, and Wang Xinyan and Sun Jingyan were both helpful to Wei Zhao?
But she was no less than Tang Zhi, was she? Damn you, Wei Zhao—would it kill you to pursue me a little? Shen Yushu's words today had left the eldest daughter full of sighs, and yet somewhere along the way she had suddenly discovered that she did care about Wei Zhao, that she was hoping Wei Zhao would pursue her.
As for all that talk before about not liking him—she had only been fooling herself!
At the very beginning, perhaps it had been true, but as time went on, Gu Mengyao no longer knew whether that "I don't like him" was genuine dislike or simply an excuse to numb herself...
Could it be that she and Wei Zhao were simply too familiar with each other? Often, a man and a woman who were too familiar could never become lovers... But then again, she and Wei Zhao should not be all that familiar, either—at least, she did not know what he was thinking, and Wei Zhao did not know what she was thinking.
At this thought, Gu Mengyao shot Shen Yushu a fierce glare. Silently she fumed: You big-bosomed fool, could you not put a little more effort in? I say I don't like him—couldn't you keep helping me along? Where has all your usual cleverness gone? Dropping the ball at the critical moment! Clumsy, unlucky Shu!
"Oh... Yaoyao, why are you glaring at me... I'll stop talking, all right?" Seeing the terrifying look in Gu Mengyao's eyes, Shen Yushu shrank back her neck and shut her mouth.
"..." Gu Mengyao wanted nothing more than to kick Shen Yushu all the way into outer space. When did I ever tell you to stop? What I meant was... put a little more effort into what you say! You rotten Shu, you're driving me insane!
Seeing Gu Mengyao baring her teeth in sheer exasperation, Shen Yushu was immediately puzzled: "Yaoyao, I've already stopped talking, so why are you still glaring at me like that? Little Shu won't ever make that kind of joke again, all right?"
"NO!!!!!!!!" Gu Mengyao finally mustered her courage and shouted at the top of her lungs.
That enormous shout startled Shen Yushu so badly that she shot up from the sofa with a whoosh, nearly scaring her hair stiff!
But just as Shen Yushu was wondering what this "no" was supposed to mean, and why Yaoyao was so furious, the sound of a car came from the villa's front gate.
Gu Mengyao's shout had used up every ounce of courage she had, and now she was too embarrassed to go on explaining anything to Shen Yushu. She stood up and said, "Wei Zhao's back. Let's go out and have a look—I wonder which star it is? Could it be someone we like!"
"The only one we like is Shihan, and we don't like anyone else," Shen Yushu said.
"Well, let's go out and look anyway—after all, he's Wei Zhao's guest," Gu Mengyao said as she headed for the villa's front door.
Seeing Gu Mengyao leave, Shen Yushu followed behind her, and the two of them walked out of the villa together.
By then Wei Zhao's car had already pulled into the villa. Wei Zhao got out first, and then the car's other doors opened. Xu Shilan also stepped down from the front passenger seat.
"Huh?" Gu Mengyao froze the moment she saw Xu Shilan. "Wei Zhao, weren't you going to pick someone up? How did you end up bringing Sister Shihan back?"
"Ha ha, Yaoyao, the person I'm supposed to protect is Xu Shilan. She's Feng Shihua's sister. I only just found out myself—we can talk about the details once we're inside!" Wei Zhao spread his hands with a bitter smile. To be honest, he had been quite shocked at first, too!
