Chapter 580 — Clearing Up the Misunderstanding
The Blossom Guardian · Page 2 of 2
Wei Zhao paid no heed to traffic lights, driving straight for the hospital. Even if the cameras caught him, Fat Lai could pay the fines. Wei Zhao did not care about fines at this moment; Tang Zhi mattered far more.
He hurried into the ward, his emotions unsettled for the first time. Without even pausing to greet Mother Tang and Liu Xinlan, he took Tang Zhi's hand. "Tang Zhi, what happened to you? How could you be so careless?"
Seeing the deep concern in Wei Zhao's eyes, Tang Zhi's cheeks flushed slightly and her heart brimmed with sweetness. But out of shyness she tried to pull her little hand free of his big one. "You... let go of me! Why did you even come here? What if Feng Xiaoxiao finds out?"
"Feng Xiaoxiao?" Wei Zhao was taken aback.
"She... she's your girlfriend now. What am I?" Tang Zhi found his expression a little strange, but she still reproached him with a bitter ache in her heart.
"She? My girlfriend? Since when was she my girlfriend?" Hearing Tang Zhi's words, Wei Zhao was caught between laughter and tears. "You're my girlfriend. How did it become her?"
Wei Zhao's words left both Mother Tang and Liu Xinlan dumbstruck!
Tang Zhi was so astonished she did not know what to say, and inside, she was overjoyed! She had already steeled herself for the worst. Her mother had told her to become Wei Zhao's mistress, and honestly, though she had resisted the idea emotionally, it was not a resistance from the bottom of her heart. If she had to, she could have accepted it.
But Wei Zhao's words now filled her with both shock and delight! Whether he was merely humoring her or truly meant it, Tang Zhi was already overjoyed! At the very least, it showed that Wei Zhao still cared about her!
"Earlier she told me she was your girlfriend, and that the damned money you gave my mother was a breakup fee for me..." Tang Zhi recounted in a low voice what had happened before, including how she had smashed her own phone...
Wei Zhao was at a loss for words, his face darkened with exasperation. So his money had been delivered to the wrong purpose after all! Feng Xiaoxiao had picked her moment well, arriving just in time to pass it off as a breakup fee. He could not help but smile bitterly. "You still do not know what Feng Xiaoxiao is like? She runs wild all day long and dares to do anything. How could you believe a word she says?"
"I..." Hearing Wei Zhao's explanation, Tang Zhi realized she had misunderstood, and truly felt at a loss for words. Yet she also secretly felt a little ashamed. Yes, she had not trusted Wei Zhao. If she had trusted him, would things have come to this?
But a girl's heart is always sensitive, especially a girl newly swept up in love, who fears losing her beloved all the more. So Tang Zhi could hardly be blamed for being suspicious. Who could help it, when things had fallen out so conveniently?
Mother Tang, meanwhile, was beaming with joy. From the look of it, all of this had been a misunderstanding! She could not help but blame her daughter in her heart. How could she be so petty and suspicious? Even if Feng Xiaoxiao truly had something going on with Wei Zhao, you still should not have given up on yourself like that. You had to hold on, had to seize your happiness! How could you just assume the worst and let it go?
Thank goodness Wei Zhao had come and cleared up the misunderstanding.
