Chapter 2680 — Here I Come
The Blossom Guardian · Page 2 of 2
Yuning was no longer a child, so naturally she knew what this feeling meant. She had had such dreams herself from time to time, and what she felt now was much like what she felt in those dreams...
Zhao Qibing was overjoyed at the sight of Yuning's condition. He drew a deep breath and turned to Uncle Zhu. "Uncle Zhu, I'm going into battle. Stand guard at the door for me—don't let anyone in!"
"Yes..." Uncle Zhu answered as if nothing were amiss, but inwardly he was beside himself with anxiety. Wei Zhao had not come, so he could only prepare himself to act!
Uncle Zhu retreated to the door, intending to wait a little longer for Wei Zhao, but all the while he kept a close watch on Zhao Qibing. If Zhao Qibing made a move, he would rush over at once and knock him out—though there was still a little time yet.
The drug in Yuning's body had only just begun to take effect; there were still a few minutes to be gained before Zhao Qibing would truly act.
In fact, Zhao Qibing was also waiting for Yuning to summon him of her own accord. If he was going to put on a show, he would put on the whole show; even though he was burning with hunger and desire, he could not begrudge these few short moments.
Through her haze, Yuning dimly sensed that someone had come into the room. She turned her head and looked at Zhao Qibing.
In her eyes, Zhao Qibing was not Zhao Qibing at all—he had transformed into the likeness of Wei Zhao. This, of course, was the work of the drug!
Seeing Wei Zhao, Yuning felt a surge of joy. She had never expected to see Wei Zhao here—was she dreaming? Yuning felt it could not be real, for only a moment ago she had been at home; how had she come to see Wei Zhao in this dazed way?
So the only explanation was that this was a dream. It seemed she had been thinking of him by day and dreaming of him by night—she missed Wei Zhao so much that she had seen him in her dream.
But even in a dream, Yuning did not want to miss this chance. If she could not see Wei Zhao in reality, then she would simply have to meet him more often in her dreams. Because she believed it was a dream, she forgot her shyness—after all, this was not the first time she had had such a dream, and she and Wei Zhao had already had a little something happen between them long ago.
"Come..." Yuning had meant to get up and go welcome Wei Zhao, but her body felt a little heavy, so she simply beckoned to him.
"Heh heh, my beauty, here I come!" Hearing Yuning summon him of her own accord, Zhao Qibing grinned from ear to ear. This drug really was formidable—when he got back, he would have to praise the Medicine King properly!
At the door, Uncle Zhu's heart was pounding. His hand was already on the door—if Zhao Qibing really dared to lay a hand on Yuning, he would charge in!
"...Come here..." Seeing Wei Zhao standing there grinning foolishly and not coming over, Yuning grew a little impatient and said coquettishly: "What are you standing there for? Hurry up and come over—I... I've missed you..."
"Heh heh, I'm coming, I'm coming right now!" Zhao Qibing could no longer withstand the temptation and charged straight at Yuning.
"Wei Zhao, slow down..." Seeing Wei Zhao so impatient, Yuning could not help but laugh. Yet she was not annoyed—she was happy for her own charm.
