Chapter 444 — Divine Doctor Kang's Plan
The Blossom Guardian · Page 2 of 2
That afternoon, Feng Xiaoxiao arrived at the school. To Wei Zhao's surprise, she was remarkably composed—at least, one could read little anger upon her face. Just as with the time he had doused her head in urine, nothing outwardly showed.
Wei Zhao figured she was brewing up her next scheme for revenge. He felt aggrieved—why did this girl insist on making his life miserable? If he couldn't afford to fight her, surely he could afford to run?
Since you're here, then I'm leaving! Wei Zhao simply skipped class that afternoon. He had just received a call from Guan Xuewen—Fatty Lai had already completed the paperwork for transferring the building's property rights, and all it needed was Wei Zhao's go-ahead to transfer it into Guan Xin's name.
Meanwhile, the drug applications Guan Xuewen had submitted for review had already been approved. With Guan Xuewen's connections in the pharmaceutical world, none of these were anything difficult—merely a matter of going through the motions. The pharmaceutical company's business license was within reach; all they lacked now was a professional manager.
Wei Zhao decided to take this opportunity to pay Guan Xuewen a visit and discuss the pharmaceutical company's affairs. As for Mo Xiaoxiao, he would just leave her to her own devices at school.
Watching Wei Zhao leave, a barely perceptible smile crept onto Feng Xiaoxiao's lips. She had wanted nothing more than for Wei Zhao to leave—now she could sit down with Kang Xiaofeng and have a proper talk about Wei Zhao's weaknesses.
Clearly, flailing about blindly like this was no solution at all. Wei Zhao's martial prowess had far exceeded her expectations, and the sheer swiftness of his reflexes bordered on the unbelievable.
To be able, after the firecracker's fuse had already been lit, to calmly take it off himself, tie it onto his own body, and pull the knot tight—a reaction speed like that left Feng Xiaoxiao stunned.
Sitting on the thick chair cushion, Feng Xiaoxiao poked Kang Xiaofeng in the back with her finger. "Got a minute? Tell me about the business with your boss?"
Kang Xiaofeng had witnessed the scene of Feng Xiaoxiao being blown up by the firecracker the day before, and had been puzzling over what on earth had happened, curious to get to the bottom of it, yet unsure how to broach the subject with Feng Xiaoxiao—and then she had come to talk to him of her own accord.
"Yesterday, what happened to you? How did you get blown up by a firecracker?" Kang Xiaofeng had not been standing with Wei Zhao the day before, so he had not seen the earlier scene.
"Just carelessness, that's all. Never mind that—tell me about Wei Zhao, won't you?" Feng Xiaoxiao plainly did not want to say more about the firecracker. "You saw it too. The moment I arrived, Wei Zhao left. He's obviously avoiding me!" Feng Xiaoxiao gazed at Kang Xiaofeng with deep resentment, looking as pitiful as could be, like a wronged wife who had been cast aside—impossible not to pity.
"He had other business—it's not that he was deliberately avoiding you." Kang Xiaofeng knew Wei Zhao had gone to look into the matter of the pharmaceutical company, but he could not tell Feng Xiaoxiao about that. The pharmaceutical company was still at a confidential stage, and Kang Xiaofeng was not a man who failed to see the bigger picture.
