Chapter 1096: Chapter 1096: I’ll Wait for Your Call
"Arrogant?" Su Ge glanced at Zhu Huahua, "When did I say I was going to sign up for the competition?"
"What, you’re not participating?" Zhu Huahua’s eyes widened, "Haven’t you heard about the Ye Family? Aren’t you tempted by the rewards they offer? If I had your skills, I wouldn’t miss this opportunity. No matter what, you should give it a try."
Seeing Zhu Huahua’s slightly disappointed expression, Su Ge said with a hint of helplessness, "From my perspective, I’m not lacking anything right now, so no matter what rewards the Ye Family offers, they might not be useful to me."
As soon as those words were said, Zhu Huahua gave an eye roll, "You may not be lacking anything at the moment, but who knows about the future. Besides, art competitions don’t require you to practice too hard; it’s just registration. The rewards might be useful to you someday."
Su Ge thought Zhu Huahua’s words made some sense and pondered for two seconds, "I’ll think about it then."
"That’s more like it."
Zhu Huahua instantly smiled.
Just as the two were about to head downstairs, a voice suddenly sounded from behind, "Wait."
Zhou Zishen’s voice.
Su Ge’s footsteps halted first, instinctively looking towards Zhu Huahua.
Zhu Huahua’s expression was momentarily stiff, but she quickly turned around naturally, "Teacher Zhou, is there something you need?"
Zhou Zishen looked at her with a complicated expression, walked towards the two, and politely nodded to Su Ge before saying to Zhu Huahua, "I clearly saw you just now, why did you leave without even greeting?"
"Just now?" Zhu Huahua seemed to recall for a moment before remembering, slightly pulling a smile, "Earlier, Teacher Zhou, weren’t you waiting for someone? Since you’ve met the person you’re waiting for, how could Su and I conveniently intrude? Greetings also need to be timed, don’t they?"
"Waiting for whom?" Zhou Zishen immediately frowned, "That student just came over to greet me, that’s all."
"Haha." Zhu Huahua chuckled twice, her expression extremely sarcastic.
"You don’t believe it?"
Zhou Zishen frowned even more.
"I believe, why wouldn’t I? Whatever Teacher Zhou says, I believe. But now, Xiao Ge and I have other things to do. Teacher Zhou, do you have anything else? If not, Xiao Ge and I will take our leave." Zhu Huahua seemed uninterested in discussing further with Zhou Zishen.
Clearly, she was still bothered by what happened earlier.
Su Ge stood aside, a bit awkward.
Actually, Huahua’s concerns were valid because that curly-haired girl was the same one Zhu Huahua bumped into at school with Zhou Zishen embracing each other.
The relationship between them was indeed more than just greeting.
"Let’s have dinner together tonight." Zhou Zishen lowered his voice, gently speaking to Zhu Huahua.
"Sorry, I have a dinner invite tonight, no time."
"Invite, by whom?"
"A classmate." Zhu Huahua looked at Zhou Zishen without much expression.
Zhou Zishen was silent for a few seconds.
"Then after you finish dinner with your classmate, I’ll come pick you up, stay at my place tonight."
When Zhou Zishen said this, his voice was even lower, and he glanced at Su Ge with slight concern.
Su Ge acted as if he hadn’t heard, calmly turning his gaze elsewhere.
"Heh." Zhu Huahua chuckled coldly again, "We’ll see when the time comes."
"I’ll wait for your call."
Zhou Zishen said, then left.
