Chapter 1292 — The Big Star's Envy

Wei Zhao was greatly surprised that Xu Shilan should have so formidable a close guard. How could a mere star command such a powerful protector? What price must have been paid to hire such a master? Was it mere chance, or was there some hidden power standing behind Xu Shilan?

"May I ask what business you two have?" As Wei Zhao and Feng Xiaoxiao came down the stairs, Feng Sanhuang stepped forward to meet them and asked faintly. He did not ask outright whether Wei Zhao had come for Xu Shilan, but only what his business was, which showed that even though Feng Sanhuang was fairly certain Wei Zhao was the man Xu Shilan wished to see, out of caution he still asked once more.

"I already called Xu Shilan. She asked you to meet us, did she not?" Wei Zhao asked.

"Please follow me." Feng Sanhuang nodded, said no more, and led Wei Zhao and Feng Xiaoxiao to the door of a lounge.

Feng Sanhuang knocked on the door, then pushed it open and said inside, "Miss Xu, the people you wished to see have arrived! Please come in, you two!"

As he spoke, Feng Sanhuang made an inviting gesture to Wei Zhao and Feng Xiaoxiao.

Wei Zhao and Feng Xiaoxiao entered the lounge together. At that moment Xu Shilan was resting on the sofa. Seeing Wei Zhao arrive, she quickly rose to her feet and came forward to greet him in person. Whatever misgivings she might harbor toward Wei Zhao in her heart, he was her benefactor. Without Wei Zhao, the concert might well have been ruined, so Xu Shilan remained very courteous to him. "You are here. Thank you so much for what happened before! Everything was so rushed just now that I had no chance to thank you!"

"No need. I already said I only did it so my girlfriend could watch the concert to the end." Wei Zhao waved his hand, regarding Xu Shilan with an indifferent air.

"Wow, wow, wow! You really are Xu Shilan!" Feng Xiaoxiao, however, was beside herself with excitement. Seeing the beloved star standing right before her eyes, she was so thrilled she could hardly contain herself. "It really is Xu Shilan! Without makeup you look even more beautiful and pure!"

"You are beautiful too. Your boyfriend says you are even prettier than I am!" Xu Shilan said with a slight smile. Yet as she spoke, she shot Wei Zhao a sidelong glance, feeling somewhat unconvinced in her heart. Though she admitted Feng Xiaoxiao was indeed very pretty, she herself was no less so! At most they were evenly matched, neither better than the other. How could his girlfriend be called far prettier than herself?

"Not at all! Hehe, it is just that beauty is in the eye of the beholder!" Though Feng Xiaoxiao said so, her heart was very sweet. It seemed her husband Wei Zhao truly loved her, for even Xu Shilan's charm could not surpass her own!

"No, he has good taste. I can see he treats you very well!" Xu Shilan shook her head, feeling rather envious of Feng Xiaoxiao instead. To have such a devoted boyfriend was truly happiness! She herself was a great beauty standing before Wei Zhao, yet he remained utterly unmoved, as if she were no more than a passing cloud. No matter how pretty she was, he did not take it to heart, for his eyes held only his girlfriend! Many men who saw her thought of taking a photo with her or stealing a kiss, yet Wei Zhao seemed to have no such desire at all. He only wanted a photo taken with his girlfriend, and had no wish to be photographed himself!

"You think he is good too?" Hearing Xu Shilan's words, Feng Xiaoxiao grew excited. She had felt all along that something was going on between Wei Zhao and Xu Shilan! Otherwise, why would Xu Shilan, a great star, be so polite and friendly to Wei Zhao? Could it be that Xu Shilan had also taken a fancy to Wei Zhao?

Thinking of this, Feng Xiaoxiao felt it was very likely, and upon hearing the faint envy in Xu Shilan's voice, she became even more certain of it! Xu Shilan must have feelings for her husband Wei Zhao! In that case, she might as well lend a helping hand!

"Ah?" Xu Shilan was taken aback.

"Why do you not become my husband Wei Zhao's girlfriend too, and then we can go home together and have a threesome!" Feng Xiaoxiao spent all her days lately with Shen Yushu, and her speech had grown much bolder, showing a tendency to take after Shen Yushu. In truth it was also because Feng Xiaoxiao had not long to live, and so had fewer scruples and had learned to take things lightly.

"Ah?" Xu Shilan's eyes widened still further, and her lovely face flushed red in an instant! What? A threesome? She could not have heard wrong, could she?

Wei Zhao had been waiting idly beside Feng Xiaoxiao, but upon suddenly hearing her words, he nearly lost his footing and fell to the ground! What was she saying? A threesome with Xu Shilan? Wei Zhao at once recalled the wish list on Feng Xiaoxiao's phone, and did not know whether to laugh or cry!

"Cough, cough! Xiaoxiao, did you not want a photo? Take it quickly, and stop joking!" Wei Zhao scolded her, afraid that if Feng Xiaoxiao went on, there was no telling what she might say next.

"Ah, right! The photo! I almost forgot!" Feng Xiaoxiao clapped her forehead and exclaimed. After meeting Xu Shilan here she had grown excited, then a little incoherent, and had forgotten the purpose of her visit. Now that she remembered, she hastily said, "Let me fix myself up first, I will be right there! Let me borrow the dressing room!"

With that, Feng Xiaoxiao ran into the dressing room inside the lounge to tidy up her appearance.

Watching Feng Xiaoxiao run off, Wei Zhao did not stop her. Seizing this brief opening, he strode quickly to Xu Shilan's side. There were things he had to explain to Xu Shilan!

"Miss Xu, do not take my girlfriend's words seriously. She likes to make mischief!" Wei Zhao sighed, lowering his voice and speaking rapidly. "In truth, she has a terminal illness and cannot hold on much longer... so do not hold anything against her..."

"Ah!" Upon hearing Wei Zhao's words, Xu Shilan was startled. Before, upon hearing Feng Xiaoxiao's words, she had indeed thought far less of the Feng Xiaoxiao and Wei Zhao before her! She had even wondered whether Wei Zhao was a hypocrite, who looked devoted on the surface but was in fact, like Zhao Qibing, a lecher at heart?

Yet now, hearing Wei Zhao's explanation, she was shocked. "She... has a terminal illness?"

"That is also why I did not want your concert to stop halfway!" Wei Zhao nodded and said, "She likes you. One of her wishes was to watch one of your concerts and take a photo with you. I did not want her to leave this world with disappointment, so I stepped in to save you! So you need feel no gratitude toward me. I saved you only so Xiaoxiao would not be disappointed!"

"This... but are you not a very brilliant doctor? Can you not cure her illness?" Xu Shilan did not quibble over Wei Zhao's words, but asked in some shock.
