Chapter 254: The Distance Grows Closer
The balloon was hit, the grey wolf plushie—the grand prize—was won, and some were happy while others were sad.
Su Tao cheered happily from the side. Even though it had cost quite a bit of money, she still wanted to maintain the grace of her "older sister" persona, and she suppressed the tears of a future of hard-boiled eggs, reaching out and telling the owner to hand her the prize.
At this moment, she even wanted to hug Chi Xiaocheng.
But their relationship had only just improved, and she was still a bit timid.
If it were before, she probably would have leaned on her naturally.
Chi Xiaocheng, of course, clapped from the side, revealing her expectant little tiger teeth.
In her heart, she couldn't help but sigh, the female lead really lived up to her title.
Her luck was off the charts.
Usually, these kinds of stalls definitely tamper with the toy guns to earn the customers' money, but this owner seemed to be a cut above the rest. She didn't know if he had a remote control hidden in his hand or something else, making the luck factor extremely low.
She had pretended to be sickly to scare him, and after the remote control gadget fell, Su Tao was so flustered she couldn't aim. One shot actually hit the smallest balloon.
You know, before that, out of 50 shots, she hadn't been able to hit the three balloons in the middle, whether they were medium or extremely small.
If the owner hadn't been manipulating things artificially, Chi Xiaocheng even felt that with Su Tao's luck as the female lead, one shot would have won the grand prize.
But well…
Watching Su Tao proudly hand her the grey wolf plushie, Chi Xiaocheng curled her lips and hugged the one-meter tall, big and soft grey wolf.
She said sweetly, "Thank you, Su Tao jie jie~"
Her voice was soft and adorable, full of affection.
There was no need to tell Tao Tao any of this. She could get the grey wolf for her through her own efforts.
This outcome could give her a huge emotional boost and make her happy.
That was enough.
Only the owner, racking his brains, couldn't figure out how he had accidentally released the remote and the grand prize had been won.
After Su Tao handed the grey wolf to Chi Xiaocheng, she still couldn't help but complain with a bit of pain, "It cost a whole 520 yuan, I almost lost money."
"It's not a loss oh~" Chi Xiaocheng hugged the grey wolf plushie and moved a little closer to Su Tao, guiding one of the plushie's hands to gently rub against her.
"I like the number 520."
Moreover, who said the money was definitely spent?
Chi Xiaocheng walked to the owner and said softly, "Uncle, we don't want the ordinary small toys from the popped balloons, can you refund us 300 yuan?"
When the owner heard this, his expression, which was originally one of suspicion, instantly became serious. "Little girl, are you trying to kill me? If you don't want them, I'll refund you a maximum of 10 yuan per toy."
Chi Xiaocheng took out her phone and shook it, putting on an innocent look. "I've been recording the whole time. Owner, it looked like…a piece of gum fell out of your hand?"
As soon as she said this, the owner's expression froze.
One of his feet involuntarily stretched out and stepped on the small remote control.
Looking at this well-behaved and adorable little thing again.
He realized that the terrifying scene he had just seen was indeed not an illusion.
This little thing was obviously not as pure and innocent as she appeared to be!
The owner was an old pro, and he directly took out his phone. "Okay, since you're so cute, I'll refund you 300."
This location was already in the "rich people's district" of Jiuzhou City. No one knew if this beautiful girl was a young lady from some wealthy family.
The other party had given him an out, and it meant he didn't lose as much money, so he had no reason not to take it.
Scan the code, refund the money, only Su Tao was blankly unaware of what had happened.
Not wanting those small toys could actually get 300 yuan refunded?
Maybe, that uncle was really conquered by Xiaocheng's cuteness?
She didn't quite understand, but she remembered one sentence.
*I like the number 520.*
Xiaocheng said it to me, so did that prove that she was already changing back to the way she used to be, liking me a little?
No need to awaken those painful memories, just be pure and adorable like now, then dissolve the barriers, get closer and closer, and finally fall in love with me again.
And then become like she was before.
Hitting the balloons was just an interlude, the two continued to walk towards the arcade.
Just the two of them walking on the road with their outstanding looks already had a high rate of heads turning, and now they were also holding this big grey wolf, so passersby couldn't help but take out their phones to capture the scene they were seeing.
But she didn't know if they were photographing the grey wolf.
Or the cute little girl holding the grey wolf plushie.
Arriving at the arcade, Chi Xiaocheng turned to the side and walked into the children's area.
Entering the inside, she instantly became the prettiest girl.
A bunch of children, seeing the big grey wolf, ran over in surprise and joy.
They called her jie jie one after another, and wanted to hug the grey wolf, and wanted to take pictures together.
Envious, huh? This is something Tao Tao gave me oh.
Want to take pictures together?
No way!
——If it was a sickly Chi Xiaocheng, then that would be her course of action.
But now, it was normal Chi Xiaocheng, of course everyone could like this grey wolf.
Let's all take pictures together!
In Su Tao's eyes, this scene turned into Chi Xiaocheng lending the grey wolf that she had worked so hard to win to others to take pictures.
Even if it was just a group of children.
But that was something I gave you, something that cost money, sweat, and was a gift given to you alone.
Sharing it with others like this…
It's a little annoying.
But with such thoughts in her heart, Su Tao wouldn't say it directly. While she was watching Chi Xiaocheng, someone patted her shoulder.
"Why are you guys running around here?"
Turning her head, she discovered it was Si Chen.
"Aren't you supposed to be at the banquet dealing with other people's affairs?"
Su Tao was also very surprised that Si Chen would come here. He shouldn't be interested in arcades, moreover, this was still the children's area.
Si Chen was speechless for a moment when faced with the question, then he patted the little chubby next to him. "Dongfang Yang took over the banquet, and then my brother is still a kid at heart, and said he wanted to come here to play."
"Er ge, I didn't, I hate kids the most!"
Si Lai immediately retorted, then saw Si Chen turn around, and met with a hint of threat in his eyes.
Cold sweat dripped out, "Haha, just kidding, I have a brother who's also playing here, he's a kid at heart, I haven't seen him in a long time, so I just came in to take a look."
"Ahem, you guys chat, I'll go find my brother."
He slipped away, while Chi Xiaocheng was already surrounded by a group of little girls who liked plushies, leaving Si Chen and Su Tao alone.
The two's gazes, very tacitly, were cast towards the little loli who was the center of attention.
Si Chen put his hands in his pockets and asked in a voice that only the two of them could hear, "Have you decided yet, whether or not to awaken Chi Xiaocheng's memories? She's only a little tired after playing for half a day, her physical condition is very good, and she can be discharged within this week barring any accidents."
"If you don't decide soon, it'll be troublesome later."
Now they can still use her "illness" as a reason to openly try to awaken her memories.
Once she's discharged, it'll be hard to find a reason.
Forcing it would make Chi Xiaocheng suspicious.
Of course, Su Tao understood all of this, and she also understood what Si Chen meant.
But this time she didn't hesitate, her gaze calm and confident. "I've decided, I won't awaken her memories, I'll let everything take its course."
