Chapter 1033 — Becoming Feng Xiaoxiao's Best Friend

Ergoudan found a piece of paper, copied it all down, and tucked it into his pocket.

By the time Wei Zhao finished the call with Ergoudan, he was home. The young miss and Xiaoshu were still on the couch watching TV.

"Arrowhead Bro, I did well today, didn't I?" The moment she saw Wei Zhao come in, Shen Yushu came trotting over to claim her credit. "Feng Xiaoxiao and I are good friends now!"

"Mm... but you will have to keep at it. Try to take it one step further!" Wei Zhao said with a nod.

"One step further?" Shen Yushu asked.

"Yes. Ideally, find a way to become her best friend, the way you and Yaoyao are," Wei Zhao said.

"Best friends? That is probably impossible. She is my love rival!" Shen Yushu scratched her head, looking rather put out.

Wei Zhao said nothing. He simply took out his phone, opened the photo album, and brought up the photo he had taken of Feng Xiaoxiao's wishes for Shen Yushu to see. "Feng Xiaoxiao has several wishes, and her time is clearly running short, so I want to help her fulfill them one by one..."

"Oh?" Shen Yushu blinked, took the phone, and read the text in the picture aloud. "How I wish I had a best friend, someone I could pour out my inner loneliness to, someone I could share a bed with and share joys and sorrows... But I am destined never to have a true friend. I do not want my good friend to suffer because of my death..."

Gu Mengyao, curious as well, leaned in to look at the picture on Wei Zhao's phone. She frowned and asked, "Wei Zhao, where did you see this?"

"On Xiaoxiao's phone." Wei Zhao did not hide it. "There is a file on it called My Wishes. I opened it on a whim, and I never expected..."

"I see..." Gu Mengyao nodded. Feng Xiaoxiao's wishes stirred something in her. Having a best friend was ordinarily such an ordinary thing, yet in Feng Xiaoxiao's eyes it had become a luxury!

Feng Xiaoxiao's reason in particular left a bitter taste in Gu Mengyao's heart! To spare a good friend pain—what a noble spirit that was!

"Xiaoshu, we are going to be Feng Xiaoxiao's best friends!" Gu Mengyao raised her fist without a trace of doubt and spoke word by word.

"Oh... all right." Seeing that even Gu Mengyao had agreed, Shen Yushu had no choice but to nod.

Truthfully, most of what she had done today had been to humor Feng Xiaoxiao, but being best friends was not as simple as humoring someone. Without a true meeting of hearts, it could hardly be called best friendship. Yet when she thought about how Feng Xiaoxiao only wanted to be Wei Zhao's little wife, how she posed not the slightest threat to Shen Yushu's own status as little wife, and how she would soon die, Shen Yushu decided it did not matter after all.

Having reached a consensus, the two of them settled the matter for the time being. But Shen Yushu suddenly noticed that the picture on the phone was not the last one, so she kept scrolling back...

Wei Zhao hurried to stop her, but it was too late. Shen Yushu's hands were quick, and she was already flipping through them! If Wei Zhao snatched the phone back now, it would only prove something was wrong!

Wei Zhao could not help but regret having photographed that wish about the "threesome"!

Shen Yushu and Gu Mengyao read through Feng Xiaoxiao's other wishes together. Car racing, watching the sunrise—none of it interested them much. Even if those wishes came true, they had nothing to do with the two of them. But when they reached Feng Xiaoxiao's threesome wish, their eyes went wide and their jaws dropped in shock!

"I have decided to entrust this arduous task to my boyfriend. Let my boyfriend push her down, and then we can have a threesome together... Hahaha... Xiaoxiao, you really are a top-tier genius! Though it seems like a pipe dream?"

Shen Yushu and Gu Mengyao stared at the content on the phone and could not help exchanging glances!

After a long while, Shen Yushu finally sighed. "Good grief, Feng Xiaoxiao is fiercer than I am? She actually wants to have a threesome with a big star? All I ever wanted was to do it with Sister Yaoyao..."

"Xiaoshu, what nonsense are you spouting?" Gu Mengyao shot Shen Yushu a glare, and suddenly felt a pang of regret...

One Xiaoshu was already enough to give her a headache, and she had just agreed to be Feng Xiaoxiao's best friend? Feng Xiaoxiao was a character much like Xiaoshu. If she became her best friend too, would she not be driven out of her mind from morning till night?

Now that these two had gotten together, wouldn't their already shocking notions become even more shocking? If Feng Xiaoxiao was entertaining thoughts of a threesome, then once she and Shen Yushu put their heads together, a foursome or even a fivesome would surely follow!

"Hehe, but that wish is a good one. Xu Shilan is an idol to both me and Sister Yaoyao, so Brother Jianpai, you had better work hard!" Shen Yushu waved her phone at Wei Zhao and said, "I wouldn't mind a threesome with a big star... mm... make that a foursome. Add Sister Yaoyao and it's a fivesome..."

"..." Wei Zhao pressed a hand to his forehead, somewhat speechless... His heart was about to explode. Stimulating as the idea sounded, something about it struck him as utterly absurd...

Gu Mengyao likewise smacked her smooth forehead and nearly fainted on the spot. What she had just been thinking, Shen Yushu had blurted right out, leaving her shocked and just as helpless... What were they going to do from now on?

"I'm going to check on Uncle Qing..." Wei Zhao took back his phone from Shen Yushu's hand and turned toward Uncle Qing's room.

"I'm going to wash up and sleep..." Gu Mengyao beat a retreat as well.

"Me too!" Shen Yushu, however, followed Gu Mengyao with tireless delight, like a shadow.

Wei Zhao walked to Uncle Qing's room. The door was unlocked, so he pushed it open and went straight in.

Uncle Qing was sitting on the bed cultivating. Sensing Wei Zhao enter, he slowly opened his eyes and said, "Xiao Yi, you're back?"

Clearly, he had not heard Wei Zhao's conversation with Gu Mengyao in the living room earlier; he could only perceive movement within a certain range.

"Yes. How are things, Uncle Qing?" Wei Zhao asked with a nod.

"I have begun cultivating the family's internal martial arts again. Peak late Yellow Rank—a fine springboard to start from. I am already well content!" Uncle Qing spoke with complete sincerity, without the slightest hint of reluctance.

"Uncle Qing, I want to try again!" Wei Zhao said, somewhat unwilling to let it go.

What he could not understand was this: if Uncle Qing could absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth through cultivation, why could he not absorb the universal energy of the jade pendant's space that had been converted through Wei Zhao's body?

"Heh, very well!" Uncle Qing nodded. He did not refuse; after all, he owed his very life to Wei Zhao, so naturally he would cooperate with whatever Wei Zhao proposed!RO
