Chapter 2473 — Scared to Death
The Blossom Guardian · Page 2 of 2
"That was a lie, to fool you." Wei Zhao curled his lip and recounted how the driver had phoned Su Lengzi, then gave a cold snort. "And isn't this mess one you two brought on yourselves?"
"This…" Kang Jinglong looked awkward, but he still argued stubbornly, "If I hadn't stepped in back then, someone was harassing Wang Xinyan—would you have stayed out of it? How can this be blamed on me?"
"If I'd stepped in, that Su Lengzi would have become a simpleton. He wouldn't have gotten the chance!" Wei Zhao shot You Panhu a cool glance. "You Panhu knows this well enough, I think. His family has a blue-haired fellow whose brain I blew apart with true qi."
You Panhu shuddered for no apparent reason and forced a smile. "Come now, Wei Zhao, what's done is done. Brother Kang meant well. He isn't as formidable as you—isn't it good enough that he managed this much?"
Kang Jinglong, also somewhat embarrassed, turned to inspect the car and see whether it truly had no fuel. But when he looked at the driver, he suddenly realized the man had no heartbeat left. "Wei Zhao—this man was scared to death!"
"Oh. Dead is dead," Wei Zhao said indifferently.
Before Kang Jinglong and You Panhu, Wei Zhao felt no need to conceal anything. Too many people connected to the Kang and You families had been crippled or killed by him already; there was no point in hiding it, and no other classmates were present anyway.
Wang Xinyan and Han Jingyi were people Wei Zhao trusted as well, and he was not afraid they would spread word.
Kang Jinglong's mouth twitched. Indeed, this driver's death was no great loss—he had brought it on himself. In fact, Kang Jinglong felt rather pleased, as if a knot of stifled anger had loosened! He had been holding in a bellyful of resentment, and later, upon learning the driver had played him for a fool, he had grown even more miserable.
Now Wei Zhao had vented his spleen for him, which amounted to venting his own.
"So now… what do we do? We can't just stay here forever, can we?" Kang Jinglong had lost all interest. He had thought Wei Zhao was afraid of ghosts, only to find Wei Zhao was not afraid in the least—and he himself had made a fool of himself instead. Naturally, he no longer wished to linger.
Yet before Wei Zhao could speak, his phone rang!
Wei Zhao took it out, glanced at the caller ID, and answered at once. "Hello, Teacher Bai!"
