125. I’ve found you, Wen Han.
“I personally delivered it in the morning,” Lin Gui said excitedly with a smile. “They didn’t say when they would have a result, but according to the official website, it should take about three days for the initial review.”
“Really that fast?” Wen Han nodded her head. “Want to get some milk tea?”
…
Ding… Ding… Ding…
The phone on the bedside table kept lighting up and ringing.
But Su Zeheng on the bed seemed completely oblivious, laughing and crying as if he were dreaming.
…
At the milk tea shop.
“Wen Han, after three days… Can we meet again?”
“Hmm?” Wen Han looked up from drinking her milk tea in confusion. “What’s wrong?”
“No!” Lin Gui lowered his head shyly, glancing at the notes he had prepared beforehand.
It listed three points:
1. Confess to Wen Han after the initial review.2. Talk more with Wen Han to create an ambiguous atmosphere.3. Chat about family or art to let her discover your talents and highlights.
With his prompts, Lin Gui gained confidence.
“Is that okay? I’m confident I’ll pass the initial review. After three days… I want to treat you to a meal to thank you!”
Are you ready to confess?
Wen Han saw through everything long ago: “Oh, no need to go through all that trouble!”
“No! I must!” Lin Gui was anxious; he was planning to confess that day!
Wen Han giggled. Finally, she nodded reluctantly: “Alright… Wait, my phone is ringing?”
She quickly answered it, then looked up hurriedly: “A friend needs me urgently, I…”
“You go!” Lin Gui stood up immediately. “Just don’t forget our agreement in three days.”
“Don’t worry! I won’t forget!”
With a gentle smile, Wen Han bid farewell to Lin Gui and walked to the back door of the milk tea shop.
With a bang, she suddenly turned into a wisp of smoke and vanished.
…
Ding… Ding… Ding…
The continuous ringing and vibration finally woke Su Zeheng up from his groggy sleep.
He yawned wearily, still half-asleep.
“Hello?”
“Old Su, why haven’t you come over yet?”
“Huh?” Su Zeheng looked around dazedly. “What time is it?”
“It’s already past ten!”
“Ten o’clock?” Su Zeheng rubbed his head. “How did I end up sleeping this late?”
“I should be asking you! You always go to bed early and wake up early, never late for work. Why are you late today?”
“I drank too much coffee last night.” Su Zeheng lazily got out of bed and poured himself a glass of water.
“Coffee? Are you crazy?” Fat Brother laughed helplessly. “Drinking coffee at night? What’s the point of that?”
“Ugh!” Su Zeheng shook his head. “Not… wait, huh?”
Before he could finish, the cup in his hand was suddenly squeezed tightly.
Su Zeheng looked up abruptly, his eyes clearing.
Right! Drinking coffee late at night?
What was the purpose of Wen Han asking me to go to 777 Coffee Shop?
Did she have any demands or other topics to discuss?
… Not really!
But could she have asked me to come over just to sit and chat idly?
“Am I falling into her trap?!”
At that moment, he suddenly woke up!
This little witch’s schemes were truly unpredictable.
Her plans always crept up on you silently, and by the time you realized it, it was too late.
Su Zeheng put down the glass of water abruptly and rushed to the wardrobe.
“Fat Brother, I’ll talk to you later!”
He hurriedly put on his clothes and shoes and ran out of the house.
…
At the same time, in Star River City Art Academy.
“The timing is perfect!”
After sensing his clone disappear, Wen Han came back to her senses and looked at the art academy.
“Oh? There’s surveillance?”
She noticed several surveillance cameras blocking her path to her destination.
She sneered, her eyes narrowing sharply.
…
Whoosh!
The black-and-white surveillance footage remained calm, as if nothing had happened.
Seeing no abnormalities, the security guard continued playing with his phone.
…
The scene changed, and Wen Han had already passed through all the cameras.
As her figure stabilized, she quickly appeared inside the art academy.
“Where is Lin Gui’s portrait?” She rolled her eyes and then looked at the tightly closed doors nearby.
…
“Hmm? Nothing.”
After searching through each room, Wen Han found nothing.
There were many unfinished artworks in these rooms, sculptures, music pieces, etc., but there was no trace of Lin Gui’s work.
Moreover, she even searched the office but found nothing.
“What’s going on?” Wen Han muttered to herself, dodging the crowd thoughtfully. “Could I be in the wrong place?”
In her confusion, her gaze was suddenly drawn to a pile of things thrown in the trash bin.
“Hmm? That…?”
Wen Han’s eyes sharpened, staring in shock at the trash bin.
Under the sunlight, several paintings were carelessly discarded near the bin, like misplaced garbage.
“… Lin Gui just delivered these this morning, but now they’re in the trash?”
She understood instantly.
The art academy probably didn’t even look at them and threw away Lin Gui’s works directly!
“This fool,” Wen Han shook her head. “Special enrollment? Do you think special enrollment is for anyone?”
She had originally planned to make a move, but now it seemed she didn’t need to do anything.
Redundant!
A mocking smile flashed across her face as she turned and disappeared into the shadow under the stairs.
…
At the milk tea shop.
“Finally, we can have a break in a few days!” Lin Na sighed with relief. “Wen Han, let’s go out during the summer vacation, okay?”
“Sure?” Wen Han grinned like a tycoon. “Where do you want to go? I’ll pay, you plan!”
“Wow!” Lin Na’s eyes sparkled. “You’re really rich now! But I don’t want to spend your money, let’s split the cost.”
“What money does a student have?” Wen Han sneered. “How about this, you work hard, you plan! For the money… we’ll split it 80/20, I’ll cover 80%.”
“… Okay!”
Dignity and friendship made Lin Na reluctant to spend too much of her friend’s money, but reality forced her to agree.
She shrugged, suddenly excitedly lifting her head. “Where shall we go? Any suggestions?”
“… Tokyo, Bali, London?”
“Ah? Overseas?” Lin Na hesitated. “That would be too expensive, right?”
“Naive girl!” Wen Han showed off her luxury items. “Do I look like someone who lacks money?”
“Wow…” Lin Na was impressed again. After a few seconds of silence, she excitedly nodded. “Then let’s go to Tokyo!”
“Good, we’ll go to Tokyo when you’re on vacation.” Wen Han grinned, but her smile soon turned thoughtful.
Her gaze stuck to the figure outside the glass window, making Lin Na turn her head in confusion.
“Finally found you, Wen Han!”
