Chapter 814 — Reality and Ideals

So not a single drop of the sprayed water landed on Wei Zhao; the car's body blocked it all, and inside the car, Wei Zhao did not get wet in the slightest.

"Ahhhhh!" Shen Yushu was about to go crazy! How could this be! How could it turn out like this? Why was Brother Arrow so lucky!

"Xiao Shu, stop making a fuss. Wei Zhao has probably already noticed you." Seeing the situation, Gu Mengyao was now almost certain of the guess she had made in her heart. Wei Zhao must have sensed Xiao Shu's intention but could not very well say anything, so he had dodged the water several times in what looked like accidental movements.

"Ah! But how could he grow eyes on the back of his head?" Shen Yushu found it a little incredible.

"I do not know, but I do not think Wei Zhao is an ordinary person." Gu Mengyao shook her head and looked in Wei Zhao's direction. Through the Beetle's window, she could see a handsome, sunny face, and a hint of bewilderment flickered in her eyes.

This man grew more pleasing to look at the more she saw of him. There was none of the revulsion from the bottom of her heart that she had felt when she first saw him. Now she did not think Wei Zhao was the least bit rustic, nor did he seem like a migrant worker. Although for work today Wei Zhao was still wearing the same torn vest he had worn when he first arrived, Gu Mengyao felt that her own attitude had changed.

She did not know whether it was because she had come to accept Wei Zhao's presence, or whether there was some other element in it, or whether she was a little fond of Wei Zhao? Fond of him? Impossible! How could she possibly be fond of a man who flirted with every woman he met?

"Oh, I knew long ago that Brother Arrow was no ordinary person, but why would he be your follower?" Shen Yushu nodded, and asked the former with some puzzlement.

"I do not know how Daddy hired him." Gu Mengyao shrugged. "But I think that sooner or later Wei Zhao will soar to the heavens. We should cherish the time we have now. Who knows, one day Wei Zhao may no longer be in this villa."

"Oh, then Sister Yaoyao, do you want to keep Brother Arrow?" Shen Yushu nodded, half understanding.

"That is not something our will can decide. Thirty thousand yuan, can that really keep him? If he wanted to leave, three hundred thousand would not be enough." Gu Mengyao shook her head.

"Oh, I do not understand any of that. I only know that if you become Brother Arrow's first wife, Sister Yaoyao, then he will have no choice but to stay in the villa!" Shen Yushu said. "Money and things like that, I do not think any of it matters."

"Ha, you make it sound so simple." Gu Mengyao smiled. "Wei Zhao has a girlfriend."

"But do not powerful men all have several wives? Are we not also going to marry the same man?" Shen Yushu countered.

"There is always a gap between reality and ideals." Gu Mengyao pinched Shen Yushu's little cheek. She had pinched it twice just now and found that it really felt nice, so plump and easy to pinch.

"Oh..." Shen Yushu watched as Wei Zhao drove the car from one side of the lawn to the other. She felt that Brother Arrow seemed able to foresee the future? Even more impressive than her, Prophet Shu.

"Brother Arrow, what are you doing?" Shen Yushu could not help asking.

"Pulling weeds. There are weeds under the car too, so I am driving it over to the other side." Wei Zhao got out of the car, looked at Shen Yushu, and asked with a half-smile. "What are you doing? Watering the lawn?"

"Oh..." Shen Yushu felt a little embarrassed. From Wei Zhao's expression she could tell that he had discovered the mischief she had done. "Brother Arrow, I actually wanted to secretly spray you a little..."

This time Shen Yushu did not hide it. Since Wei Zhao had seen through her, she simply admitted it.

"Ha, I thought you looked like you were up to it on purpose." Wei Zhao smiled, not at all annoyed. He really could not bring himself to be angry with Shen Yushu. If it had been Zhong Yongliang playing these little tricks, Wei Zhao would have kicked him off to the Southern Heaven Gate long ago.

"Ugh, what a letdown, Brother Arrow. Would it kill you to let me spray you once..." Shen Yushu said, somewhat disappointed.

Shen Yushu's words were a little suggestive, which made Wei Zhao think of that scene in the hospital with Gu Mengyao, and he subconsciously looked toward Gu Mengyao.

When the young lady saw Wei Zhao looking at her, her heart tightened, and she too thought of something. Her face instantly flushed red, and she shot Wei Zhao a fierce glare. "What are you looking at? What indecent thing are you thinking about?"

"Ha, nothing." Wei Zhao shook his head.

But the more Wei Zhao acted this way, the more Gu Mengyao felt a sting of embarrassment and irritation. Thinking of that scene in the hospital and the ambiguous smile now on Wei Zhao's face, she snatched up the water gun in her hand and fired at him.

Wei Zhao was caught off guard, never expecting the young lady to attack so suddenly. He could only smile wryly; it seemed she really was embarrassed and angry. He hurriedly dodged to one side, but Gu Mengyao's water gun still swept across him and caught him with some spray.

Seeing Gu Mengyao take the initiative to attack Wei Zhao, Shen Yushu cheered and grabbed her own water gun, spraying it at him. "Sister Yaoyao, let's have a contest to see who can hit Brother Arrow!"

Skilled as Wei Zhao was, with Gu Mengyao and Shen Yushu sweeping their water guns at him from left and right, there was simply no way to dodge. It was not as if he could burrow into the ground. But seeing how much fun the two of them were having, Wei Zhao simply stopped dodging and let them spray away.

Yet just at that moment, a woman's shriek came from beyond the villa's fence. "Bastard! Which little brat soaked me from head to toe?"

Gu Mengyao and Shen Yushu jumped in fright and hastily shut off their water guns, turning to look in the direction of the voice. There, at the entrance to their villa, stood a convertible Porsche sports car, and in the driver's seat sat a woman dressed in a most seductive and revealing manner. The top of her head was soaked through, and her heavy makeup had run from the water, smearing into a mess like a painted face from Peking opera.

So it was that Gu Mengyao and Shen Yushu had gotten a little too carried away in their romp, focused only on spraying Wei Zhao with their water guns, and had failed to notice the sports car passing by outside the villa. Their sweeping streams had caught the woman square in the face and hair.

Gu Mengyao and Shen Yushu realized they had caused trouble. Though the woman's words were ugly, the young lady was not by nature arrogant or spoiled, and she stepped forward with a sense of responsibility. "I am sorry, we accidentally splashed you with water. Please forgive us..."

Today was the first day Gou Huli had driven her sports car to see her new home. She had barely gotten halfway through the villa district when a stream of water descended from the sky and drenched her from head to toe. She flew into a rage at once!
