Chapter 345 Love, All Along (Bonus Chapter For Xinghui Ye Jing ④)
"A while ago, Tao Tao transferred to my class."
"She was clean, beautiful, and her high ponytail smelled so good. She got first place on the first exam."
"Everyone liked her, and the teachers praised her too. She was wonderful…"
"But I knew that someone so 'high above' was different from me, a little mouse who was always bullied and only dared to hide in dark corners."
"Like heaven and earth, we could never intersect."
"But, she was like Tom the cat, and I was Jerry the mouse. No matter how I hid, she always seemed to find me."
"When I was being bullied again, she appeared by my side, reached out her hand to me, and said she would protect me in the future."
The girl sighed deeply, "That time, she took me back to her dilapidated little house, bathed me, combed my hair, gave me a little hairpin, and took me to the street at night to buy me a piece of candy."
"I was so happy, like the protagonist of a story."
"From that moment on, we leaned on each other. Even though I was still bullied when I was with her, she protected me again and again."
"I caused her a lot of trouble, but she never disliked me, never abandoned me, wiped away my tears, and said she would protect me for the rest of her life and always be with me."
"I can't explain what that feeling was like, but every time she hugged me, I liked to bury my head in her hair."
"And then I thought, she smells so good."
As the girl poured out her heart, the little ball of light realized for the first time that the person in front of him, who had died more than forty times and still hadn't given up, was actually a very ordinary girl.
In the original novel, she was just a supporting character who died not long after the beginning.
The little ball of light could understand why the girl experienced even more problems after being protected by Su Tao.
Staying by the protagonist's side meant all sorts of accidents would happen.
However, all of these accidents were blocked by this protagonist.
The girl continued, "I don't know when, my mindset started to change."
"Maybe it was because I was getting older, or maybe it was because Tao Tao secretly took me to watch some TV dramas, or maybe it's just that girls mature early?"
"I realized I kind of liked her."
"I don't know if it was love, but being by her side was comfortable, enjoyable, peaceful, and happy."
"Those lovey-dovey dramas say that's what love is."
"And Tao Tao would also imitate the people in the TV shows and say she wanted to be with me forever."
"I took it seriously, and I was sure that I might... have fallen in love with her."
The girl was a little shy and rubbed her cheek with her index finger, embarrassed, "Speaking of which, I used to secretly kiss Tao Tao when she was asleep, I think it was in the first year of middle school? I forgot."
"Soft, sweet, with a little indescribable peach flavor, I liked it a lot, it was addictive."
"But after almost getting caught once, I didn't dare to do it again."
"Then I went to middle school, and the biology book said that girls should be with boys in the future."
The girl's expression showed confusion, "That's weird, right? Girls are actually supposed to be with boys!"
"I worried about it for a long time, afraid that Tao Tao would dislike me for being so strange, so I secretly hid this love in my heart."
"And this budding affection was hidden for several years."
"When I came to my senses, I realized I couldn't live without her anymore."
"Until after high school graduation, she accidentally met Ye Liang."
The girl's voice dropped, "From that moment on, it seemed like everything changed."
"You know what happened next, don't you, Little Ball of Light?"
The little ball of light nodded, "Because the main story began, and your Su Tao's self-awareness began to be influenced by the will of the world after encountering one of the male leads."
That fight was the beginning of all disputes and conflicts.
The girl sighed deeply, "It's been so long since I left Tao Tao, forty-something times?"
"Forty-something four-month periods?"
Her sense of time was blurred, she was just constantly repeating that day, praying for a new turning point to appear.
But now, she felt like she was faintly unable to hold on.
Too lonely.
She wanted someone to be with her.
She wanted to chat with someone.
Anyone would do, as long as they encouraged her a little, so she wouldn't be alone every time she came to this pure white space.
The little ball of light was indeed a chat partner, but it had no substance, wasn't human, and had no warmth.
Occasionally, the girl would reflect on herself, "Little Ball of Light, do you think I'm too weak, that's why I haven't made any progress?"
The little ball of light was silent for a while, "You are the strongest girl I have ever seen."
"Thank you for the compliment." The girl smiled lightly, "But if there was another smarter Chi Xiaocheng, a more outstanding Chi Xiaocheng, maybe the outcome wouldn't have been like this, right?"
But she was herself, and no one could replace her.
After voicing her thoughts, the girl felt much better.
After thinking it over, she stepped into that door again.
Then it was failure after failure.
Even though she endured the loneliness and didn't look for Su Tao once for four whole months, and left her original city, she still died on December 25th due to some kind of accident.
That was the deepest despair.
She didn't even have a chance to live.
The 50th time.
She returned to this space, and the content she had chatted with the little ball of light was like a final burst of brilliance before death.
Now, the motivation that supported her persistence was getting smaller and smaller.
The girl couldn't help but make a request to the little ball of light, "Little Ball of Light, can you create someone to keep me company? Just to keep me company, I'm afraid... I'm afraid I can't hold on anymore."
"I don't want to give up on Tao Tao..."
"But... it hurts so much..."
She hugged her knees, curled up on the ground, whimpering, tears blurring her vision.
The little ball of light was silent for a long time, "If it's just to create an illusion within this space centered on your spirit, I can barely do it now."
He stopped speaking.
From the screens floating in the air, representing memories, flew out black butterflies.
Dozens of butterflies gradually gathered, transforming into a black evening gown, and then a girl identical to the girl, but with a somewhat wooden expression.
High heels clicked on the ground, and a black rose was pinned in her hair.
Tapping the floor with her toe, the Little Cheng in the black dress slowly flew behind the girl, wrapped her arms around her, and hugged her tightly.
"Don't be afraid, I'm here."
