Chapter 1902 — Here Comes the Problem

But apart from Wei Zhao, Bai Weituo, Zhao Shengji, and Song Xiaodao were all staring wide-eyed. Where on earth had these two campus-belle beauties sprung from? And why did they seem to have a grudge against Wei Zhao and Wang Xinyan?

"Wei Zhao!" Gu Mengyao glanced at Wang Xinyan and said coolly, "I've finished my business here. Let's go home together."

Wang Xinyan looked at Gu Mengyao in some surprise. She thought to herself, isn't Wei Zhao's girlfriend Feng Xiaoxiao? From Gu Mengyao's tone, though, they live together? Had Wei Zhao changed girlfriends? No wonder Gu Mengyao's eyes were so unfriendly—so she had seen her with Wei Zhao.

"Go on with what you're doing. I'll be off first." Wang Xinyan gave a faint smile, nodded to Wei Zhao, and turned to walk away.

Wei Zhao smiled bitterly. He had never expected the young miss to say something so suggestive in public. Back in high school, she had been desperate to keep anyone from knowing they lived together; now, barely into university, she was broadcasting it everywhere, not even worried about her reputation.

"Let's go..." Wei Zhao shrugged helplessly.

Bai Weituo and the others were a little dumbstruck. So this was Wei Zhao's girlfriend? Then what about Wang Xinyan...

He Meiyue's brow furrowed even more at this. She looked at Wei Zhao, then at the departing Wang Xinyan, but could see no clue in it.

Wang Xinyan still wore that light, breezy, uninvolved look, as though what had just happened had nothing to do with her at all. This left He Meiyue puzzled. Could it really be that there was nothing between Wang Xinyan and Wei Zhao?

Wei Zhao waved to Bai Weituo and the others, then headed toward the parking lot with the young miss and Xiaoshu.

"No way? We all got the wrong idea?" Bai Weituo's eyes went wide, his face full of disbelief.

"Living together already? No wonder the boss didn't come back last night!" Song Xiaodao said enviously.

"Xinyan, you and Wei Zhao... is there really nothing?" He Meiyue caught hold of Wang Xinyan and asked, a strange note in her voice.

"Really nothing..." Wang Xinyan spread her hands and smiled bitterly. "We're just friends..."

"All right, I believe it this time." He Meiyue finally nodded. "But I still feel there's something ambiguous between you two."

"Truly pure..." Wang Xinyan joked.

Wei Zhao went with Gu Mengyao and Shen Yushu to the parking lot. Unexpectedly, the young miss did not bring up Wang Xinyan again, but turned to other matters.

"Military training starts the day after tomorrow. Bring me and Xiaoshu some first-aid medicine each—the kind for treating external injuries and neutralizing poison," Gu Mengyao said. "There'll be field training exercises. You won't be at our side, and I'm afraid something might happen."

"Fine. But if you run into trouble, call me anytime," Wei Zhao said with a nod.

"Each department trains at different times, so we probably won't cross paths..." Gu Mengyao said. "Besides, Xiaoshu and I want to toughen ourselves up a bit. We can't rely on you for everything. Sooner or later there'll come a day when you leave us."

"That's right—now Brother Chewing Gum spends every day chasing girls and pays us no mind," Shen Yushu said with a wronged nod.

"So after all that, you two are still unhappy about Wang Xinyan!" Wei Zhao smiled bitterly. "There's nothing between us—didn't I already tell you? When I first came to Songshan City, we were on the same train. She was kind, and so we got acquainted..."

"I know. I didn't say anything." Gu Mengyao's tone was cool. "It's just that doing this, you're being a little unfair to Xiaoxiao. We don't think it's quite right."

"Xiaoxiao..." At the mention of Xiaoxiao, Wei Zhao frowned. This strange feeling had come over him more than once. Thinking of Xiaoxiao, he always felt as though he had another girlfriend. "By the way, Xiaoxiao... she seems to be my little wife? Isn't that right?"

Gu Mengyao and Shen Yushu exchanged a glance. Neither knew how to answer, but Shen Yushu still nodded. "That's right. What about it?"

"Then here comes the problem: if she's the little wife, who's the big wife?" Wei Zhao asked in return.

Sure enough, here came the problem! The young miss furrowed her brow. She had known this could not be resolved so easily. This Forget-Love herbal tonic still had its flaws. If it had been Tang Yun, staying in the Snow Valley and devoting herself to cultivation, there might not have been so many problems. But the crux was that Wei Zhao had returned to his former life, and in that life there were inevitably places and things that stirred old feelings. Any of these could produce memory conflicts. It was not so simple as merely erasing Tang Yun and everything connected with her!

What he could not see, Wei Zhao might not recall. But what he could see?

Gu Mengyao and Shen Yushu exchanged another bitter smile. They did not know how to explain. It seemed Wei Zhao had not forgotten the fact that Feng Xiaoxiao was his little wife.

"Actually, Sister Yaoyao is your big wife!" Shen Yushu said with a perfectly straight face.

"..." Wei Zhao was rather speechless, but plainly he did not believe Xiaoshu's words.

"Don't listen to Xiaoshu's nonsense. I'm hungry—let's go." Gu Mengyao changed the subject, steering them past the matter for the time being.

When they got home, Granny Sun was busy making dinner and it was not ready yet, so Gu Mengyao pulled Xiaoshu upstairs.

Wei Zhao did not ask more. The two of them were often like this at home. He took the opportunity to go out and buy medicinal ingredients. He had wound medicine on hand, but not so much antidote. He had one portion on himself; having given it to Gu Mengyao and the others, he no longer had any, so naturally he needed to prepare some more.

Once Gu Mengyao and Shen Yushu were upstairs, the young miss's expression turned very grave. "Xiaoshu, Wei Zhao seems to have remembered something. What do we do?"

"That's right, I feel it too. Brother Chewing Gum seems to have thought of something, but anything to do with Sister Yunyun, he doesn't remember at all—other things he remembers perfectly clearly. I don't think I could even trick him into believing you're the big wife, because he remembers that you're not..." Shen Yushu said with a rueful face.

"Exactly, I've noticed it too. Whether it's you or me or anyone else, that whole stretch of memory involving Tang Yun has really vanished completely, but the aftereffects are obvious—it creates gaps in his memory..." Gu Mengyao frowned. "What are we to do? If we tell him the truth, we'll have wasted all of Yunyun's pains. But if we don't, then at this rate, Wei Zhao will grow more and more suspicious..."
