Chapter 233: Su Tao'S Yandere Cultivation Plan
Moonlight streamed through the pristine white curtains into the hospital room.
Overhead lights mingled with the moonlight, the cool illumination as soft as silk, dappling across Chi Xiaocheng's features.
She lowered her head, a smile playing on her lips. Her tea-brown hair cascaded over her shoulders, slightly disheveled, but Chi Xiaocheng paid it no mind, patiently awaiting a reply from the person on the other end of her phone.
Doctor Cheng had been busy for over a month and a half since last treating a "yandere patient." The workload had kept her from much conversation with Su Tao, save for the occasional chat to maintain their connection and prevent estrangement.
It was time to bring back the long-dormant persona for a crucial moment.
The previous "yandere patient" had been cured; now it was time to treat another.
Alone in the hospital bed, the room door tightly shut, most of the medical equipment once attached to her had been removed, and there were no surveillance cameras.
With no one around, where was the amnesiac pretense?
That's right.
All along, the memory loss had been an act!
After the system's reminder, Chi Xiaocheng understood that complete amnesia had too many uncontrollable factors, making it impossible to handle unforeseen circumstances.
Memory disorder, on the other hand, was the advanced strategy she'd devised, a state that could be presented as amnesia while remaining under her control.
However, she knew that thinking and doing were two different things. She had to deceive Professor Su, trick any visiting psychologists, and even fool future hypnotists who might try to awaken her, along with a host of other unknowns.
Intermediate acting skills weren't quite enough.
But leveling up relied on the lottery system; she needed to pull the same skill twice to upgrade. While her luck was decent and she suspected the system was secretly tweaking the drop rates, she didn't have many emotional points to spare.
With just over 4000 points, she had to reserve 3000 to purchase Snow White's poisoned apple.
She couldn't afford to gamble.
After a long search, Chi Xiaocheng finally found what she was looking for.
[Temporary Acting Card: 300 Emotional Points]
[Upon use, grants temporary Intermediate Acting Skill, duration lasts until the end of the performance]
Seemingly ordinary, Chi Xiaocheng discovered this card could stack with her existing Intermediate Acting Skill!
Intermediate Acting + Intermediate Acting = Ultimate Acting!
Though expensive and short-lived, it was more than enough to handle the doctors. In Ultimate Acting mode, Chi Xiaocheng felt she could even withstand Si Chen's password verification without cracking.
But to suppress the urge to cuddle with Tao Tao upon waking, acting alone wouldn't suffice. She also bought a pill to dampen her emotions.
[Emotional Dampening Pill: 200 Emotional Points]
[Dampens emotions targeting a single person or emotion, duration 1 day]
Targeting a single person was perfect for Su Tao. So, spending 500+ emotional points daily, Chi Xiaocheng successfully played the role of a memory-impaired, Su Tao-hating "amnesiac Xiaocheng."
She wanted Su Tao to care more, to look at her more.
Favorable feelings were growing too slowly, and possessive feelings were constantly decreasing. Su Tao would still seek out others, not just boys, but even girls could be influenced by Su Tao's protagonist aura.
Like that Tang Tang.
Or someone else who might appear in the future and affect Su Tao.
Since favorable feelings wouldn't rise, then she would increase possessiveness!
Chi Xiaocheng had asked the system about the metrics for each level of favorable feelings.
Considering romantic feelings, reaching 60 was just a slight liking, commonly known as budding affection.
Regardless of the situation between her and Su Tao, just speaking of two ordinary people, the chances of a successful confession only increased slightly above 80.
90 could be called lovers.
95, soulmates.
100, inseparable until death.
The closer to 100, the harder it was to increase.
Possessive feelings followed the same principle.
Below 60, low.
60-80, a bit possessive, increasing slightly with the number.
Above 80, the feeling of not wanting the loved one to interact too closely with others emerged.
At 90, there were early signs of yandere tendencies. This stage wasn't just "not wanting," but "not allowing!"
She wouldn't allow excessive contact with others. If discovered, it could lead to unpleasant consequences.
At 95, not quite yandere, but if the loved one wasn't looking at her and was instead fickle, a locked room was unavoidable.
Once possessive feelings reached 100, that person truly became a yandere!
Chi Xiaocheng always felt that the yandere she played with her Intermediate Acting skills was in the [90-95] range. It had a yandere flavor, but it wasn't entirely yandere.
Of course, reaching 100 didn't mean going completely insane. Yandere didn't mean lacking reason; their thinking simply became more extreme due to various factors.
Chi Xiaocheng's goal was to raise Su Tao's possessiveness to around 90 points!
She would maximize Su Tao's possessiveness, but without turning her into a yandere. That way, while normal, she would still be completely focused on Chi Xiaocheng, and their future happy life would only include the two of them.
Such a beautiful picture, wasn't it?
Of course, she wasn't without moments of softness. She had given Su Tao two choices. If Tao Tao had directly chosen to awaken her and accept her yandere side, then this plan would have been scrapped.
She would just nurture Su Tao's yandere feelings a little.
Reaching around 80, with a good amount of possessiveness, would be enough.
But Tao Tao, you are perfect in every way, except for your emotional slowness, which is disappointing.
My feigned yandere behavior is also a sign of love. Why won't you accept this kind of love from me?
Her phone pinged. Su Tao's message arrived on Doctor Cheng's account, "Doctor Cheng, you've finally replied! May I ask if you're finished with your work?"
"Of course," Chi Xiaocheng typed back. "For the past two months, I've been trying to treat the yandere patient I was working with. I'm happy to tell you some good news: yandere can be treated!"
"Really?!" Su Tao typed the wrong word due to excitement, "Doctor Cheng, yandere can really be cured? So you've been busy with that girl for the past two months. Can you tell me more?"
Taozi: "Sorry, I meant Doctor Cheng. I got a little excited and mistyped."
Doctor Cheng: "Of course. I always thought yandere was an extreme condition that was difficult to treat. But if you want her to become normal and no longer extreme, there are ways. However, not everyone can use this method."
Taozi: "Please elaborate!"
Doctor Cheng: "Alright, Miss Taozi. We're quite familiar, and your friend Chengzi is a bit special, so this method can work for you. But I must tell you one prerequisite for treating yandere in advance."
Doctor Cheng: "It's to fulfill all her needs within a certain period!"
