Chapter 11: Important Plot Point, Intra-School Game

Back home, Chi Xiaocheng received a message from Chen Qian.

"Su Tao's already back in the dorm, looking a little haggard, and absent-minded."

As an inside agent on the same front, although she disliked Chi Xiaocheng somewhat, having her weakness grasped in someone's hand made her happy to sell out Su Tao, the superficial girlfriend.

Not long after they parted, she sent a message to Chi Xiaocheng to test the waters, wanting to find out what her real intention was.

Chi Xiaocheng saw this and replied, typing away, "I need you to take care of her meticulously. These next few days, try to find reasons to stay by her side as much as possible, and tell me about any actions or thoughts she has."

Chen Qian: "Take care of her meticulously? Are you serious?"

Chi Xiaocheng: "Just listen to me."

Su Tao was simple-minded, and Chen Qian, not yet exposed, was definitely considered her friend. Being in the same dormitory, they would chat about many things.

Having experienced the ups and downs of what happened to herself, Su Tao, afraid to confide in Ye Liang and the others, needed a temporary reliance.

Chen Qian was a good choice.

On the one hand, she could be her inside agent to obtain information, and on the other hand, she could increase Su Tao's favorability. Once Su Tao thought Chen Qian was a true good sister...

At a certain crucial moment.

Bang!

A desperate backstab.

At that time, she, Chi Xiaocheng, could enter the scene and occupy that fragile part of the female lead's heart.

Naturally, these were all part of her plan. Next, she needed to deal with the next plot point in the original work.

The intra-school basketball game!

Dongfang Yang led the Red Team.

Ye Liang led the Blue Team.

The two would engage in the final of the intra-school basketball game!

In female-oriented novels, such a game was nothing more than depicting how handsome the two male leads were, while also using it as a catalyst to add the female lead's relationship, creating a satisfying point where the two male leads seemed to be competing in the game, but were actually competing for the female lead.

Even if her arrival had caused a butterfly effect, Su Tao would still go to the game to cheer for the two male leads, without fail.

Chi Xiaocheng was considering how to intervene in the plot of this game as a third party.

At the same time, she could further advance her relationship with Su Tao.

At the very least, she couldn't let Su Tao continue to avoid her. Chi Xiaocheng sent messages to Su Tao now, but the female lead didn't reply at all.

"Just in case, let's draw another skill."

Chi Xiaocheng looked at the system panel, which was another function of the system besides the store.

Lottery!

100 emotion points for one draw.

1000 emotion points could be used for a ten-draw, with a guaranteed low-level skill.

Skills were different from the strange items in the store. Chi Xiaocheng had experienced the power of system skills.

Acting (Intermediate), Pain Reduction (Intermediate), Spiked Liquid (Beginner).

With the three skills she currently had, the intermediate acting skill alone had brought Chi Xiaocheng great help.

"Take a gamble, a bicycle becomes a motorcycle!"

"Draw!"

Once again spending 100 emotion points, the system's lottery panel suddenly burst out with golden light.

"A skill came out?!"

Chi Xiaocheng's face was pleasantly surprised, "It's actually an intermediate skill!"

But the moment she saw the skill's name, Chi Xiaocheng couldn't help but freeze again, her expression becoming strange.

"Is this kind of skill really useful for my current situation?"

...

Time quickly came to November 5th, Tuesday.

The day of the intra-school basketball game.

To avoid the other male leads who might still be angry, and those two-faced sisters, Chi Xiaocheng skipped class for the day.

But today was the unfolding of a small climax of the plot.

5 PM was the time the game started.

Chi Xiaocheng left early and headed to the open-air basketball court on campus.

Even though she arrived half an hour early, the court was still surrounded by students, packed like sardines.

It was evident how popular the two male leads were at the school.

Pretending to be bewildered, she leaned towards the direction where Su Tao was. Before long, a certain girl who had occupied a good spot in the front row shouted out, waving at Chi Xiaocheng, "Xiaocheng, over here!"

Curious passersby looked in the direction of the voice, and then opened their mouths in surprise.

Today's Chi Xiaocheng still went out with no makeup on.

Her slender and petite body was wrapped in a beige teddy bear sweatshirt. The soft material clung to her exquisite curves, the cuffs were slightly rolled outwards, revealing a small section of her snow-white wrist, making her look particularly delicate.

Still wearing the double ponytail braids she wore when meeting Dongfang Yang, delicate ribbons tied them up, the ends of her hair naturally curled, and the pigtails swayed gently behind her, adding a few points of playfulness and liveliness.

Today, she was the cute little sister next door.

What shocked everyone was naturally Chi Xiaocheng's beauty. Such a cute little loli, only Su Tao, the commoner campus belle, could compare to her.

Perhaps the girl's shout was too loud, even the three key people in the venue cast their gazes over.

Ye Liang frowned heavily, his eyes disgusted.

Dongfang Yang glanced at her with interest.

Su Tao's expression was somewhat surprised, and somewhat complicated. When Chi Xiaocheng gave her a smile, she frantically looked away.

During the process, she noticed that at the moment of avoidance, the little loli's expression also showed a hint of loss.

Chi Xiaocheng squeezed to the front row and came next to the girl who had just called her.

One of her sisters, Zeng Xiuhua.

She had a high nose bridge, and her makeup was very delicate, but the muscles on her face moved stiffly when she spoke, obviously having undergone plastic surgery.

"I guessed you would definitely come to watch the game, Xiaocheng, so I specially saved you a seat."

She pulled Chi Xiaocheng to sit next to her, about 5 meters away from Su Tao's excellent spot.

First, she glanced at Chi Xiaocheng's small face that seemed to be full of collagen, jealousy and dissatisfaction were deeply hidden in her eyes. She asked caringly:

"Xiaocheng, why didn't you put on makeup when you went out? Girls can't go out without makeup. You don't look good at all like this."

Chi Xiaocheng gave a fake smile, "I ran out of makeup, I don't have money to buy it. I washed my face carefully with clean water when I went out, it's okay."

"How can that be? You have to dress yourself up as a girl!" Zeng Xiuhua said in a dissatisfied tone, "Really, if you don't have makeup, you can just tell me. Wasn't the last set I gave you? I still have a set, I'll send it to your dorm later."

Looking at that caring expression.

Chi Xiaocheng almost vomited her overnight meal.

That kind of cheap makeup was like a 30 yuan facial cleanser, with many side effects, ugly, and harmful to the skin.

The original owner was also stupid, she actually believed what she said after being coaxed a few times.

Although she complained in her heart, Chi Xiaocheng still had a forced fake smile on her face.

This made Su Tao, who was secretly watching this scene, feel very uncomfortable.

The surprise in her heart at Chi Xiaocheng's appearance was far less impactful than the words spoken in the basement a few days ago.

Even now, she still remembered those things that happened in the basement.

Including those words that Chi Xiaocheng said.

That afternoon, Chi Xiaocheng bit her inner lip. The pain and the taste of blood made Su Tao unable to forget it even now.

Why?

Because after being bitten by Chi Xiaocheng, she... got a mouth ulcer.
