Chapter 2525 — Wang Xinyan Is Sick

"Good, good, finally it'll be settled. Otherwise this whole business is such a nuisance..." Gu Mengyao breathed a sigh of relief at Wei Zhao's words.
"Since you two are back, I'll go see Han Jingyi. Have you seen her these past couple of days?" Wei Zhao asked.
"No, we haven't. That girl studies things all day long; when there's nothing urgent, we don't disturb her," Gu Mengyao said. "But Wang Xinyan came by yesterday and asked where you'd gone."
"Wang Xinyan? She came yesterday?" Wei Zhao was slightly startled.
"Yes. She said she was feeling a bit dizzy and wanted you to take a look, but you weren't here, so she left," Gu Mengyao said.
"Dizzy?" Wei Zhao was slightly taken aback.
"Oh, come on—I think Sister Xinyan just missed Arrow Brand Bro and had no excuse, so she said she was dizzy!" Shen Yushu said.
"Xiaoshu, don't talk nonsense. Do you think everyone's like you?" Gu Mengyao shot Xiaoshu a glare, then said to Wei Zhao, "Now that you mention it, I hadn't thought of it before—hurry up and give her a call and ask how she's doing."
"All right." Wei Zhao felt somewhat uneasy himself. What was this dizziness of Wang Xinyan's about? He did not want anything to happen to her. Even setting aside any romantic considerations, Wang Xinyan was enormously useful to him.
So Wei Zhao gave up the idea of going to see Han Jingyi and dialed Wang Xinyan's number directly. Before long, her somewhat languid voice came through the line: "Hello? Wei Zhao?"
"It's me, Xinyan. How are you? I'm back. Yaoyao said you've been feeling dizzy—are you any better?" Wei Zhao asked.
"I don't know what's wrong either. I just feel a bit light-headed, and I drifted off to sleep just now..." Wang Xinyan rarely slept during the day. She had no idea how she had dozed off earlier. "Maybe I've caught a cold?"
"Caught a cold? Then wait there—I'll come find you at school," Wei Zhao said. "A cold is no small matter; you can't take it lightly. If it gets serious, you might not even be able to attend class..."
"It's not that serious, surely... I'm so sleepy..." Wang Xinyan said. "I'm in the dormitory. You can't get in, can you..."
"How about this—I'll have Yaoyao and Xiaoshu go pick you up. Come have dinner at my place tonight, and if you're still not well, just sleep over. I can take a look at you while you're here," Wei Zhao said. Though his original intention was for Wang Xinyan's good, he could not help also thinking that tonight he might hold her while cultivating—and at the thought of cultivating, he could not help again conjuring up the ambiguities between them...
"Ah... it's probably too much trouble for them..." Wang Xinyan did not refuse, but merely said it would be too much trouble for Gu Mengyao and Shen Yushu, which secretly delighted Wei Zhao.
"It's no trouble at all," Wei Zhao said.
"Then... all right. I'll get ready first; by the time they arrive, I should be about ready to come downstairs..." Wang Xinyan thought it over and agreed. RQ
