After leaving Qiding Lane, Huo Sining couldn't wait to call Zhou Shitao. The phone rang only twice before he answered, and Zhou Shitao immediately said, "Where have you been recently, girl? Finally willing to turn on your phone? I've called you several times and couldn't get through. You've completely forgotten Shu, haven't you?"
"Ah?" Huo Sining felt awkward upon hearing this. Apparently, it's not just Gu Xu who was frustrated with her phone being dead; even her teacher knew. "Well, I was out for a while, and my phone ran out of battery. I didn't notice it. Teacher, I'm really sorry."
"Alright, apologizing to me won't do you any good. You should apologize to Little Gu, too. I bet by now, he's already in Dongdu, isn't he?" Zhou Shitao, though quite old, was rather unserious with his young apprentice, even taking this chance to tease her.
"Uh..." Hearing Zhou Shitao's words, Huo Sining immediately blushed and awkwardly glanced at Gu Xu beside her.
