Chapter 211: After Confessing, What Comes Next?
With hope and anticipation, people subconsciously make changes.
It's like a single dog who has been fairly introverted for over twenty years finally having a love interest, subconsciously wanting to improve himself and show the other person a better version of himself.
Su Tao was like that.
Every day, she wanted to improve herself a little more before Chi Xiaocheng woke up.
So that when she woke up, she would see a more perfect her.
Working hard to study, exercise to nourish her body, and expand her social circle to enrich her knowledge.
Every day was a little tiring, but very fulfilling.
At the same time, she also wanted to find someone to share her joy with.
Doctor Cheng was busy with work and didn't know that Xiaocheng had actually "died" once. He was like an elder to her, providing her with help when she needed it.
Although Su Tao really wanted to share with him, she was always afraid of disturbing his work.
Since Chi Xiaocheng's death, they had gradually chatted less.
She also had many friends, but their relationship was limited to just friends.
After thinking it over, she finally invited her friend Chengcheng out on Saturday.
If the girl didn't put her hair up, Su Tao would always hallucinate Xiaocheng on her. But after confirming that Xiaocheng could wake up, she no longer saw that shadow when she saw this friend again.
Chengcheng still had a helpless look, just like when they chatted on the phone. "I only have three hours of vacation every week, and you're going to waste them all."
Su Tao put her hands together, making an apologetic gesture. "Our relationship is like we're very familiar but not very familiar, we get along the best. Going anywhere is the same as having fun. This time, my treat."
They were internet friends, but also like soulmates, knowing each other inside and out, but with almost no real-life interaction.
This feeling of being close yet far made Su Tao feel very relaxed.
She was also the only person to whom Su Tao had proactively said that Chi Xiaocheng had died but then come back to life.
Fang Ning was an exception.
Upon hearing this, Chengcheng also raised the corners of her lips. "Actually, you don't have many friends, so you can only come to me, right?"
Su Tao replied with a smile, "It's not that. Either they're not that familiar, or they're too familiar. It's not easy to talk about things related to Xiaocheng with some friends."
Chengcheng raised an eyebrow suspiciously. "Then how come I've never heard of you having so many friends?"
"Everyone has their own social circle, okay?"
"But if your Xiaocheng knew you had other social circles, wouldn't she be jealous?"
Chengcheng's sudden question stunned Su Tao for a moment.
The person in front of her was a soulmate and a friend, not Xiaocheng, so Su Tao didn't need to hide anything. "They're just friends, there's no other relationship. Xiaocheng shouldn't be jealous, right? I just need to make it clear that I like her."
"And it's precisely because of this that I never told Xiaocheng about those things before."
Like Chen Qian and Xiao Wei.
Su Tao was also on good terms with them.
But she rarely mentioned them to Chi Xiaocheng, for fear of her unstable yandere state.
However, Chengcheng made a meaningful "eng～" sound. "Taozi, you still don't understand yanderes enough. Hiding things from her is also a deducting point."
"Maybe we think from different angles?" Su Tao touched her chin and thought. "What I've been thinking all along is that as long as I like her and won't betray her, it doesn't matter."
"Theoretically, it doesn't matter, but did you really like her before?"
Su Tao was speechless for a moment, glaring at her friend. "At least I like her now!"
Chengcheng was still a little curious.
"Are you sure?"
"I'm sure!"
"Even if she's a girl, and you're also a girl?"
"I..." Su Tao bit her lip and snorted, "It's not like that's impossible. Anyway, I'll get used to it and work hard to overcome it!"
She pushed Chengcheng into a milk tea shop, and then quickly changed the subject.
This friend was good in every way, the only not-so-good point was that she would always inexplicably tease her, just like Xiaocheng before, always bringing up topics that made her feel sensitive, as if deliberately testing her thoughts.
But that's what makes them friends.
Thanks to Chengcheng, Su Tao had to face and sort out many topics that she subconsciously wanted to avoid.
The two of them wandered around for a while, and then went to Chi Xiaocheng's house.
Su Tao said, "This is where Xiaocheng and I live. The house was earned by her brother, and it's also under his name. In the future, I plan to earn money and buy a new one, and then use it as our future little house."
Chengcheng kicked away the Great King who was inexplicably trying to get close, and casually looked at the facilities here. "I think this place is pretty good too. You can just live here in the future."
Su Tao smiled softly. "It's still her brother's house after all. He'll need to get married and have children in the future too, right? I want to build our future with Xiaocheng with my own hands."
"Eh～"
Chengcheng looked at Su Tao with a smile that wasn't quite a smile. "You've already thought about getting married so far in the future? Tell me, what specific ideas do you have?"
As soon as she said this, Su Tao's smile froze slightly.
Then her face turned slightly red.
"I haven't thought about marriage or anything like that." Su Tao sighed. "Actually, I don't know what our future will be like. Although I'm already trying my best to overcome my awkwardness, we're still two girls after all, and we won't be able to go public in the future, right?"
"I've thought about what Xiaocheng would be like if she woke up ten years later, but I haven't thought about what she would look like in a wedding dress. Or rather, I don't dare to think about it."
She sat on the sofa, feeling a little emotional. "Before, when I couldn't accept Xiaocheng's yandere tendencies, I always thought that if we really got together, would we have to sneak around when we went out on dates in the future, be pointed at and gossiped about if we were discovered, and then be thrown into the news?"
"Even now, there are still many people online who attack people like us, right?"
Chengcheng: "So that's why you kept telling me before that you thought two girls were weird?"
"Yeah, that's part of the reason." Su Tao nodded lightly. "Another part is my own values. After all, from childhood to adulthood, the education I received didn't touch on that aspect. Rejection is almost subconscious."
"Even now?"
"If that were still the case now, how could I have told you so bluntly that I actually like Xiaocheng too?" Su Tao glared at Chengcheng unhappily. "I already said that when Xiaocheng wakes up, I'll confess to her!"
Chengcheng boiled a pot of hot water and then sat next to Su Tao. "Have you thought about what happens after the confession? She's a yandere who has experienced death once or twice. What if she gets even more sick? What will you do then?"
As soon as she said this, Su Tao, who was sitting on the sofa, was stunned.
She had thought about many things, like what if Xiaocheng died completely, or what if she came back to life.
She had confirmed that the most important thing was to confess to her after she woke up, and to confirm their boyfriend-girlfriend relationship... well, girlfriend-girlfriend relationship.
After all, this was Xiaocheng's last wish before she died.
But what about after the confession?
How to deal with her yandere tendencies?
Su Tao looked sideways at Chengcheng, vaguely feeling something.
Chengcheng's question seemed to be asked from Xiaocheng's perspective.
