Chapter 1767 — Eavesdropping
The Blossom Guardian · Page 2 of 2
"You... sometimes you get a little jealous, and then when someone's gone, you miss them." Wei Zhao chided her, somewhat helpless.
"Yeah... though sometimes I feel unhappy thinking that she's your girlfriend too, when she's gone, I miss her." That was the kind of person Tang Zhi was—soft-hearted to a hopeless degree.
"Heh heh, maybe a year, maybe two. When the time comes, we'll bring her back together." Inwardly, Wei Zhao secretly made a vow. He absolutely had to become an alchemist—it was already urgent—yet he had made not the slightest progress in alchemy!
What Wei Zhao actually lacked now was a good teacher. The alchemists of the Xuandan Sect all had someone to guide them, and even the hidden You family had someone to guide them. Only Wei Zhao was studying on his own without proper direction. But at present, Wei Zhao was not on friendly terms with either the hidden You family or the Xuandan Sect, so it was impossible to seek their advice. There was only a second-grade alchemist in the Ice Palace, but Wei Zhao could not bring himself to ask for instruction either. Moreover, that alchemist was said to be extremely arrogant. In the Ice Palace, only Bingtang Xiaoniur's words carried weight. Even if Wei Zhao went to learn, she might not be willing to teach him.
"All right!" Tang Zhi nodded emphatically. "I really hope... that in the future, we can be like tonight—forgetting all worries, carefree, able to sit in the courtyard every day and watch the starry sky. That life would surely be wonderful..."
"That day will come. When it does, I'll accompany you every day... all of you..." When Wei Zhao said the word "all," he could not help but pause.
"Heh heh, it's fine. I've thought it through. If Yaoyao and Xiaoshu want to follow along then, let them come too. We'll find a place, or stay here, and live in seclusion. It'll surely be fun..." Tang Zhi said. "But you seem like someone who can't stay idle."
"Yaoyao and Xiaoshu?" Wei Zhao looked at Tang Zhi in surprise.
"I'm not too sure what Yaoyao is thinking, but Xiaoshu probably likes you. Since I've accepted Xiaoxiao, how could I exclude her?" Tang Zhi smiled, restoring her usual smile and ease. "All right, let's not talk about that anymore... Today, did Grandpa Lin tell you privately what he thinks of me?"
"That, he didn't." Wei Zhao shook his head. "He seems to like you quite a lot. But that's just how he is—unreliable as ever. He likes all of you."
"Heh heh, that's good." Tang Zhi nodded. Wei Zhao was an orphan, so Grandpa Lin, who had raised him from childhood, was naturally Wei Zhao's guardian. His attitude directly affected whether Tang Zhi could stay in the Lin family in the future. Since Grandpa Lin had no objections, then there was no problem.
"Yunyun is a good person, Xiaoshu. If you really want to be with Wei Zhao in the future, don't play clever tricks and bully her. She's a very kind person," Gu Mengyao said with some feeling after hearing Tang Zhi's words.
