Chapter 357: Liking Someone Doesn'T Need To Be Hidden (Bonus Chapter For Starry Night Scenery 8/8)

Chi Xiaocheng’s voice rang out like a ghost, nearly scaring Su Tao half to death.

She immediately slipped the glasses Si Chen gave her into her pocket, and turned around with a smile. “It’s nothing. I just finished talking with Si Chen and he left. I was just wondering if I should go back and help you pack.”

Chi Xiaocheng smiled timidly. “Actually, there’s not much to pack. Even the change of clothes are hospital gowns here. Brother Dongfang’s hospital has practically everything.”

Hearing the words "Brother Dongfang," Su Tao subconsciously frowned.

But realizing that showing it so obviously wasn’t good, she immediately relaxed and returned to normal.

Her acting talent, inherited from her actress mother, allowed her to control her facial expressions with ease, even after only studying it for a short time.

But even such a small change in emotion was caught by Chi Xiaocheng.

The girl also unleashed her own acting skills. “Um, Tao Tao… are you really okay?”

“I’m fine.”

Su Tao’s expression showed no hint of anything amiss, and she reached out to Chi Xiaocheng. “Let’s go. The discharge procedures are all done. Let’s go home and rest and pack a little. We have to go to school to register tomorrow.”

“Ah… we have to go to school again? Can I take a long break?”

“A long break?”

“Yeah, yeah, I feel like four or five months would be enough. I can rest at home to recover.”

“A semester is only four months at most, Xiaocheng, you’re too much.”

The two walked out of the hospital together. When they stood on the street, Chi Xiaocheng habitually took a long, deep breath of the fresh air outside.

Every time she came out of the hospital, she felt like this feeling was really wonderful.

Chi Xiaocheng looked at Su Tao again, noticing that the girl was looking down at her phone.

Slightly踮起腳尖, Chi Xiaocheng realized that Su Tao was calling a taxi.

But in reality, a bright red sports car was visible outside the hospital, and Dongfang Yang was actually waiting outside.

Tao Tao's possessiveness has really increased.

Now she’d rather spend money than let her ride in Dongfang Yang's car.

Even with her too.

Chi Xiaocheng waited for a while, then timidly tugged at Su Tao.

“What’s wrong?” the girl stopped and looked at the girl beside her.

Chi Xiaocheng hesitated again and again, but finally said, “It’s about… about what you said at the hospital, the confession, and the girlfriend thing.”

“My memory has recovered, but I still feel like it’s strange for Senior Sister Su Tao to say these things.”

“You told me to treat it as a joke back then, but now you’re acting weird too. So that wasn’t a joke, was it?”

Su Tao was a little surprised. She hadn't expected Chi Xiaocheng to still be dwelling on this matter.

Then she understood that Chi Xiaocheng hadn’t really recovered all of her memories.

Her memories of her own feelings and love probably still had gaps.

Those ordinary interactions, because of Dongfang Wen, that old geezer's hypnosis, had turned into sisterly affection.

No wonder Xiaocheng was confused.

When Xiaocheng first said she liked her in the basement, hadn’t she been conflicted for a long time too?

Should she explain to Xiaocheng that it was a joke?

Or should she continue to hide this affection for now?

Su Tao had no help at all now. She hadn't contacted Cheng Cheng or Doctor Cheng. Whatever she did, whatever she chose, was entirely up to her.

Remembering all sorts of past events, Su Tao sneered in her heart.

What was there to hide?

Did her liking for her still need to be hidden?

Su Tao turned to the side and looked at Chi Xiaocheng very seriously. "Actually, Xiaocheng, about me liking you, it's not a joke."

“I really like you!” Su Tao reached out and stroked Chi Xiaocheng’s face. In the moment the latter’s pupils slightly contracted and showed a shocked expression, she emphasized, "I haven't been treating you as a younger sister. I've been secretly liking you all along."

"I want to hold you in my arms, cherish you in my hands."

"I want to be your girlfriend, live together, and walk towards the future together."

Her hand was still stroking that delicate face, but her thumb couldn't help but rest on Chi Xiaocheng's somewhat moist lips.

Gently stroking the softness, her eyes held an unconcealable longing.

Chi Xiaocheng gently pushed Su Tao away a little, making a subconscious resistance.

Then she realized her mistake. “I’m… I’m sorry, Tao Tao. What you’re saying is making me a little… unable to process it.”

“Has my memory… not fully recovered yet?”

Chi Xiaocheng’s eyes were filled with a hint of worry.

Su Tao smiled calmly. “That doesn’t matter anymore.”

She reached out and touched Chi Xiaocheng's head. "It doesn't matter anyway. I will prove to Xiaocheng that I like you. You can try to recall or you don't have to think too much. But don't worry, I will find a way to cure your memory."

“No matter what, my liking for you will not change!”

Su Tao looked up at the sky, her words extremely firm.

This once again made Chi Xiaocheng marvel at the female lead's mental adjustment.

Judging from Tao Tao's current performance, her possessiveness towards me may be lower than I imagined.

Or has she gotten used to the pressure and become immune to it now?

Chi Xiaocheng wasn't sure, but she still pretended to be hesitant.

After a long time, she took the initiative to reach out and hold Su Tao's palm.

In the girl's surprised gaze, she showed a little smile. “Although… although I’m still a little resistant, but… if it’s really because of my memory, if I really liked Tao Tao before, then I…”

“I’ll try to get used to it.”

Innocent, adorable, pure, lovable.

Su Tao’s breathing couldn’t help but quicken at this moment.

This was it, this was it!

She liked this kind of Xiaocheng, no matter how much memory she had, no matter what kind of changes happened, she wouldn't leave her!

She would even take the initiative to adapt to her abnormality.

She wanted to get closer.

She wanted to kiss those cherry-colored lips.

Like, like, like, like, like, like…

But she couldn't scare Xiaocheng.

Right, she couldn't scare her.

Su Tao squeezed Chi Xiaocheng's small hand a little, and gently comforted the girl, "Take your time, I will be with Xiaocheng no matter what."

She took that small hand, lowered her head, and kissed the fair back of her hand.

She took the lead and pulled Chi Xiaocheng towards the hospital gate.

Her heroic figure walked in front, making it impossible for Chi Xiaocheng to see the girl’s expression.

She just vaguely felt that the current girl seemed to have returned to her former white moonlight appearance.

Has her character weight really dropped to 80%?

Having been under pressure all along, and without recovering her memory, why is she so much more normal than before?

In fact, Chi Xiaocheng’s feeling was right.

If she could stand in front of Su Tao, she would find that there was a hint of infatuation in the girl’s eyes.

Her tongue kept licking her lips, as if savoring the taste of just kissing the back of her hand.

But in reality, there wouldn’t be any taste at all.

The sun rose, and sunlight shone on the two of them again.

The same as before.

Everything seemed so… warm.

And normal.
