Chapter 3250 — Meeting Wang Xinyan Again
The Blossom Guardian · Page 2 of 2
"Ah?" Wang Xinyan shuddered and turned her head. Her beautiful eyes were filled with incredulous shock and delight. She had never expected Wei Zhao to suddenly appear at school. Truth be told, she had missed Wei Zhao terribly all this time. Han Jingyi used to attend school, so she could glean bits of news about Wei Zhao from her, but lately Han Jingyi had stopped coming too, cutting off Wang Xinyan's only source of information entirely.
She had wanted to call Wei Zhao, or visit his home, but she could never summon the courage. After all, she could no longer help Wei Zhao in any way, and she did not know whether she and Wei Zhao could still be together in the future. The fact that she could not aid his cultivation left her feeling quite guilty. She had helped him only a little, yet Wei Zhao had gone all the way to the Snow Valley to seek rare treasures for her sake, nearly betraying Tang Zhi's feelings—all of which made Wang Xinyan feel she had let Wei Zhao down. So she had not contacted him all this time.
Originally, Wang Xinyan had thought Wei Zhao had forgotten her. As time passed, even the closest two people would drift apart like strangers, and those remembered little flirtations and small warmths would ultimately become nothing more than a beautiful recollection.
But Wei Zhao had appeared, sitting beside her just as he had every day when they used to go to school together! In that moment, Wang Xinyan had the illusion that Wei Zhao had never disappeared at all, that the last time he sat here had been only yesterday.
"Kang Jinglong has been bothering you a lot lately, hasn't he?" Wei Zhao said apologetically. "I've been far too busy these days to come to class. I ran into him at the gate just now and sent him packing..."
"Not really... I ignore him..." Wang Xinyan explained reflexively.
"I know." Wei Zhao nodded. "Next time, don't bother with him. If he shows up, just drive him off. I told him just now that you're my girlfriend, and he didn't dare talk back."
"Ah?" Wang Xinyan's cheeks flushed slightly, and she found it hard to believe. "He... is he afraid of you now?"
"Yes. Right now, the whole ancient faction fears me..." Yet Wei Zhao was not the least bit pleased. He gave a faint sigh. "At least for now, they won't dare do anything to you, nor dare to coerce you. It's just that I don't know how long this situation will last..."
"What do you mean?" Wang Xinyan was slightly taken aback, not quite understanding.
Wei Zhao did not hide anything and recounted to Wang Xinyan everything that had happened during this time. He had arrived very early, and the classroom was still empty front and back, so he was not worried about anyone eavesdropping.
Wang Xinyan listened spellbound. She had never imagined Wei Zhao had been through so many thrilling experiences during this time.
