Chapter 289 Attending a school dance.
At this moment, Zhao Zhaodi seemed somewhat hesitant. She bit her lip lightly and frowned slightly, as if she was going through a fierce internal struggle.
After a long while, she finally shook her head gently and slowly said:
"Um... I'm really sorry, it's not that I don't want to help, it's just that it's really not convenient at night."
Upon hearing this, Ye Wentao felt a glimmer of hope and quickly pressed his advantage, continuing to earnestly persuade him:
"Oh, Zhao Zhaodi, don't worry about that. This dance party will be held right here on campus. It's absolutely safe and reliable, unlike those messy and chaotic places off campus."
So all you need to do is go back and have a good talk with your parents, and tell them that you will be staying in the school dormitory overnight this Friday night and will not be going home.
I'm sure your aunt and uncle will understand and agree, right? Just for the sake of our good relationship, please help me out with this big favor, okay?
As he spoke, his bright, piercing eyes stared intently at Zhao Zhaodi, as if to say that he would not give up until he received a definite answer from her.
Zhao Zhaodi was so persistent with him that she had no choice but to give in. Although she still had some reservations, she ultimately couldn't resist Ye Wentao's persistent pleading and reluctantly nodded in agreement.
"Okay... but I have to make it clear beforehand that I've never participated in any dancing activities before. I know absolutely nothing about dance."
Hearing that she had finally agreed, Ye Wentao patted his chest happily and assured her:
"Haha, Zhao Zhaodi, you can rest assured! This little thing is nothing. I'm here to teach you everything!"
After saying that, the two smiled at each other and walked home together, chatting and laughing.
Friday arrived in the blink of an eye.
Because she had already promised to attend the computer science department's graduation ball that evening, Zhao Zhaodi dressed up specially.
On this day, she wore a simple and comfortable tracksuit, and carefully folded a snow-white dress and placed it in her schoolbag.
Just before leaving, Zhao Zhaodi saw her father Zhaoyuan and mother Lin Fangfang sitting at the dining table enjoying a delicious breakfast.
So she smiled and said to them:
"Dad, Mom, I'm planning to stay at school tonight. I'm going to attend a dance at school."
Upon hearing his daughter's words, Zhao Yuan readily responded:
"okay!"
After receiving her parents' permission, Zhao Zhaodi happily slung her schoolbag over her shoulder, then lightly hopped on her bicycle and sped off towards school.
In the afternoon, as the bell rang to signal the end of the last class, a relaxed and cheerful atmosphere filled the entire campus.
At this moment, Zhao Zhaodi was still sitting quietly in the classroom, methodically tidying up her schoolbag.
Just then, Ye Wentao rushed into the classroom like a gust of wind and headed straight for Zhao Zhaodi.
His face beamed with excitement as he enthusiastically called out to Zhao Zhaodi:
"Zhaodi, let's hurry up and go get something to eat first."
Faced with Ye Wentao's eager invitation, Zhao Zhaodi couldn't help but raise her head slightly and ask in confusion:
"Huh? Why are you in such a hurry?"
Ye Wentao quickly explained:
"Hehe, after dinner I need to hurry up and do some preparations for tonight's dance. Let's go to that little shop next door, it's on me."
After he finished speaking, the excitement on his face became even more intense.
After listening to Ye Wentao's words, Zhao Zhaodi quickly finished packing her schoolbag. Then, she neatly slung her schoolbag over her shoulder, stood up, and walked out of the classroom with Ye Wentao. The two walked side by side, slowly heading out of the school.
They chatted and laughed along the way, looking forward to the night that was about to begin, filled with joy and surprises.
Upon arriving at the school gate, the two walked side by side, their eyes constantly scanning the surroundings, trying to find a small shop that was suitable for dining and popular with college students.
Finally, they found a small restaurant that was bustling with customers.
The store was packed with people, but thankfully there were still two empty seats.
So they quickly went over and sat down, and picked up the menu to order.
It was graduation season, and all the shops around the school were packed with people.
Students gathered in small groups, either discussing the upcoming graduation ceremony or reminiscing about their four years of university life.
The cacophony of voices and the clanging of pots and pans created a unique symphony of campus life.
After a while, the dishes the two ordered were finally served.
They enjoyed the delicious food while chatting idly.
Before we knew it, time had slipped away, and the meal was quickly finished.
After the meal, Zhao Zhaodi glanced at her watch and said to Ye Wentao:
"It's getting late, I need to go back to my dorm and pack up."
Ye Wentao nodded in understanding, then got up and escorted her to the door of the girls' dormitory.
Standing in front of the dormitory building, Ye Wentao looked at Zhao Zhaodi with deep affection and said softly:
"Zhaodi, don't forget the dance at 7 p.m. tonight. I'll be there to pick you up at 6:50 p.m."
Zhao Zhaodi smiled and replied, "Okay, I know. You go ahead and do your thing. I'll take care of it myself later."
After saying that, she turned and walked towards the stairwell.
When Zhao Zhaodi returned to her dormitory, she found that her roommates had not yet returned as the final exams were approaching.
Zhao Zhaodi sat down, tidied herself up a bit, and changed into a white dress. Then she sat down to review her lessons... When night fell and the clock struck 6:50, Zhao Zhaodi got up and went downstairs to the school's ballroom.
Ye Wentao was waiting for Zhao Zhaodi at the entrance of the girls' dormitory.
Zhao Zhaodi, dressed in a snow-white long dress, descended the stairs slowly like a fairy descending to earth.
The skirt swayed in the wind, like a blooming white lotus, beautiful and captivating.
Ye Wentao was momentarily stunned, because Zhao Zhaodi rarely wore skirts. He was completely taken aback until Zhao Zhaodi walked up to him and gently called his name, which brought him back to his senses.
Ye Wentao gentlemanly extended his right hand, gesturing to invite Zhao Zhaodi. Zhao Zhaodi tapped Ye Wentao's hand and said:
"Let's go, stop being so formal, it's awkward."
Ye Wentao smiled, and the two walked together toward the school's dance hall.
Stepping into the spacious and vibrant dance hall, Zhao Zhaodi quickly scanned her surroundings.
