Chapter 1294 — You Are Not Sick

"Really? We can go?" Feng Xiaoxiao of course wanted to go very much, but she lifted her head and looked at Wei Zhao.

"Then let us go and take a look. I will call Gu Mengyao and the others and have them head back first." Wei Zhao nodded.

"That is wonderful!" Feng Xiaoxiao said happily.

The young miss, Xiaoshu, Tang Yun and the rest were easy to talk to. Once Wei Zhao explained the situation, they said it was no problem and that they would go back and wait for Wei Zhao and Feng Xiaoxiao. It was plain that the three of them were of one mind whenever it came to anything involving Feng Xiaoxiao.

Sister Wang now also knew that Xu Shilan's headache earlier had been relieved with Wei Zhao's help, so she did not think there was anything improper about Xu Shilan inviting Wei Zhao to the celebration banquet! Besides, the banquet would not be made up only of people from the company; there would also be some distinguished figures from society, so bringing Wei Zhao and Feng Xiaoxiao along was no problem at all.

Wei Zhao, Feng Xiaoxiao and Xu Shilan walked out of the gymnasium side by side, while Feng Sanhuang stood on Xu Shilan's other side, never leaving her for a step. Though on the surface nothing seemed out of the ordinary, Wei Zhao could sense that he remained intensely alert at every moment!

As an internal-style expert at the peak of the late Profound Rank, to be working as a bodyguard for a superstar and to do it this well left Wei Zhao astonished.

"Miss Xu's close guard is quite conscientious, staying right at your side. His salary must not be low?" Wei Zhao smiled faintly, asking as though casually.

"It is all right, a bit more expensive than an ordinary close guard, thirty thousand a month." Xu Shilan did not conceal it and said so straight out.

"Thirty thousand? That is indeed a little more than the usual." Wei Zhao nodded, but inwardly he was all the more astonished and puzzled! An internal-style expert at the peak of the late Profound Rank, for thirty thousand a month? With skill like his, if he went to serve as a guard for one of those great families, never mind thirty thousand, even three hundred thousand would be too little! Back when Wei Zhao had served as Gu Mengyao's close guard with the standing of a Yellow Rank expert, he had already earned that much a month, and even that had come through Old Man Wei's connections... So Wei Zhao had grown rather curious about this expert, Feng Sanhuang!

Yet Wei Zhao did not ask more. It was clear that Feng Sanhuang had no idea Wei Zhao had already seen through his strength, and his face remained expressionless as before.

Wei Zhao and Feng Xiaoxiao got into Xu Shilan's business van together. Feng Xiaoxiao and Xu Shilan sat in one row, while Wei Zhao sat alone on the other side of the aisle.

"Mr. Lin, forgive me for intruding, but could we talk about my health? About my headaches?" Xu Shilan had already told the story of how she and Wei Zhao had met, and had also mentioned her trouble with headaches.

"Hubby Wei Zhao, why not take a look at her? Xu Shilan is so pitiable, having headaches all the time!" Feng Xiaoxiao's relationship with Xu Shilan had already grown quite close, so naturally she worried about her illness too.

"All right, but I cannot guarantee that I can cure it." Since Wei Zhao had come along, he had expected this, and he did not refuse; he took Xu Shilan's arm and once again felt her pulse.

When Wei Zhao raised her arm, Xu Shilan's face flushed at once. She had never before been so intimate with a man; though Wei Zhao was only examining her, she could not help feeling embarrassed, especially with his girlfriend right there beside them.

Feng Sanhuang, sitting at the very back of the van, saw Wei Zhao take hold of Xu Shilan's arm and his expression shifted slightly, but seeing that Xu Shilan said nothing, he naturally did not rise to stop it.

"How long have you had the headaches?" Wei Zhao released Xu Shilan's arm and asked mildly.

"More than ten years... I cannot say exactly when it started, I was too young then..." Xu Shilan frowned, as if recalling the past, and an expression of pain could not help but surface on her face.

But afterward, Xu Shilan's face turned incomparably pale, and cold sweat slid down her forehead. What she had not expected was that the headaches had started again! And at such a moment, by the cruelest coincidence, just when Wei Zhao had the chance to examine her!

"My head..." Xu Shilan clutched her head with both hands and said with difficulty, "It is starting again..."

Wei Zhao frowned and quickly went over to examine Xu Shilan's pulse, eyelids, tongue coating and the like once more, but found nothing abnormal. After pondering for a moment, he took out his silver needles and began treating her.

This time the needles and the massage were done while Xu Shilan was conscious, so when Wei Zhao's hand touched her chest, a look of shame appeared on her face at once. Yet she also knew that Wei Zhao was not taking advantage of her, but truly treating her illness!

She already knew quite enough about Wei Zhao by now; Xu Shilan was very clear about what kind of person he was. If anyone said Wei Zhao had designs on her, Xu Shilan would never believe it! It had been obvious even while they were taking photos that Wei Zhao was not interested in her, and when he examined her and took her pulse, he had gone about it like routine business, letting go the moment he was done, not even bothering to keep his hand there a moment longer. How could a man like that possibly take advantage of her?

Besides, his girlfriend was right there watching; how would he dare? Wait... it seemed his girlfriend was very much in favor of him doing something to her? At that thought, Xu Shilan was caught between laughter and tears... This girlfriend of his really was top-notch, was she not?

But while Wei Zhao was doing all this, Sister Wang was somewhat nervous. Xu Shilan was a public figure after all, and for a man to be so intimately handling her chest did seem a little improper. Still, since it was for treatment, and Xu Shilan raised no objection, Sister Wang could only watch nervously.

Feng Sanhuang was nervous as well, his eyes fixed straight on Wei Zhao, as though the moment Wei Zhao did anything untoward, he would rush up and do away with him.

As for Sister Wang's gaze, Wei Zhao did not mind it, but toward Feng Sanhuang, this expert, Wei Zhao kept fully on his guard. Who knew where he came from? Wei Zhao could not be certain he would not suddenly make a move while he was treating Xu Shilan!

"Much better..." Xu Shilan looked at Wei Zhao gratefully. "Much more comfortable, the pain is gone..."

Wei Zhao nodded, said nothing more, and quickly withdrew all the silver needles from Xu Shilan's body.

"You are not ill, you are perfectly healthy!" This time Wei Zhao was certain, and he said to Xu Shilan with the utmost gravity.

"Ah?" Xu Shilan was stunned, looking at Wei Zhao in bewilderment. "I am not ill? Perfectly healthy? What do you mean?"

"I mean there is nothing wrong with your body at all!" Wei Zhao said, word by word. "You are not sick!"
