Chapter 468 — Feng Xiaoxiao's Confession
The Blossom Guardian · Page 2 of 2
"What did you just give my mom?" Tang Zhi had sharp eyes and had spotted something.
"Nothing." Wei Zhao smiled.
"Did you secretly give her money?" Tang Zhi was no fool either, and had more or less guessed.
"No, just a little piece of jewelry." Wei Zhao said offhandedly.
"Oh..." Tang Zhi breathed a sigh of relief. She was afraid of owing Wei Zhao too much, more than she could ever repay.
Wei Zhao drove Tang Zhi to school and parked the car on the snack street. No sooner had they gotten out than Feng Xiaoxiao's Audi TT pulled up as well, parking beside Wei Zhao's car.
Feng Xiaoxiao had once again commandeered a stall on the snack street, and the vendors dared not voice their anger. She was acquainted with Wei Zhao, after all — who would dare risk offending her?
"Hubby!" Feng Xiaoxiao parked the car and waved at Wei Zhao.
"Gah?" Wei Zhao's eyes went wide, and he stared at Feng Xiaoxiao in bewilderment. Was this girl sick in the head? Calling him hubby?
Tang Zhi's expression darkened as well, and she stared at Feng Xiaoxiao with puzzlement. Earlier, in the cafeteria, Feng Xiaoxiao had already shown an excessive closeness to Wei Zhao that left Tang Zhi somewhat uneasy, and now she was openly calling Wei Zhao "husband" right in front of her — who did this woman think she was?
"Wei Zhao, didn't you say you were going to make things clear with her?" Feng Xiaoxiao ran over and caught hold of Wei Zhao's arm. "You liar! Yesterday you told me you were going to give her a breakup fee and then break up with her — so why are you still with her?"
"Feng Xiaoxiao, are you out of your mind?" Wei Zhao was about to explode with anger at her baffling words.
"Wei Zhao, I think I might be pregnant. Take me to the hospital to get it checked?" Feng Xiaoxiao did not answer him at all, but went on speaking as though to herself.
Tang Zhi frowned and studied Feng Xiaoxiao. From what she knew of Wei Zhao, she did not believe a word of it — yet anyone hearing such things would feel some doubt. "What's going on here?"
"Didn't Wei Zhao give you the breakup fee?" Feng Xiaoxiao looked at Tang Zhi in confusion. "Wei Zhao and I have known each other for ages. At first I thought you were pitiful, so I wanted to let you be the mistress and share Wei Zhao with you. But since you wouldn't play along, I had no choice but to have Wei Zhao say goodbye to you!"
Tang Zhi was taken aback. Though she did not quite believe Feng Xiaoxiao's words, the girl had spoken with such solemn conviction that Tang Zhi could not help but doubt. After all, reputation mattered greatly to a girl — how could Feng Xiaoxiao, who did not even have a boyfriend, pour such filth over herself and say such things?
Seeing the students passing by all turning to look their way, Tang Zhi felt her face burn with embarrassment and anger. Feng Xiaoxiao's words were plainly meant to humiliate her; even if they were lies, Tang Zhi still felt deeply uncomfortable. Now the passing students would think she was fighting another woman over a man.
Never had Tang Zhi imagined that one day she would become the leading lady of a love triangle.
"Wei Zhao, you sort things out with her first. I'm leaving — come find me after class!" Not wanting to meet everyone's strange gazes, Tang Zhi said this to Wei Zhao and then turned and walked quickly toward the school.
Wei Zhao, meanwhile, watched Feng Xiaoxiao with a dark, grim face. "What exactly are you trying to do?"
"Wei Zhao, I like you!" Feng Xiaoxiao lifted her head, her little face flushed pink as she looked at him. "I've realized I've fallen for you beyond saving! Especially yesterday, when you saved me — that made my heart flutter even more!"
