Chapter 394 Truly No Self-Awareness At All
After breakfast, tidying up, and putting out cat food for the two cats so they wouldn’t have to scavenge through the trash, she changed into a casual outfit, ready to go out.
Su Tao stood by the closet, looking at the clothes inside. She turned to ask, "Xiaocheng, the sun’s quite strong outside, but it’s not really cold. Should I just wear a hoodie?"
"Sure!"
Chi Xiaocheng, still teasing Xiao Ran with a ball of yarn, nodded in agreement. She was still wearing the onesie she'd put on when she woke up, her petite frame looking adorable inside.
But not exactly suitable for going out.
As they spoke, Su Tao seemed to have already prepared an outfit: a peach-pink hoodie with a cute, pouty anime girl on the front.
The texture wasn't the best, but the thickness was perfect for the weather.
However…
Chi Xiaocheng looked up at Su Tao, "I don’t remember you having this hoodie?"
Her only hoodie was orange with an orange design.
Besides that, there was only the onesie-style hoodie.
Su Tao chuckled softly, "I just bought it. It wasn't too expensive. After all, it’s almost New Year, and it doesn't feel right not to buy at least one new piece of clothing."
As she spoke, Su Tao pulled out another hoodie.
It was sky-blue, exactly the same style as Chi Xiaocheng’s, but the anime design on the front was of a cool girl with a high ponytail and sunglasses.
It looked like...
Matching outfits, girl-version.
Perhaps noticing Chi Xiaocheng’s somewhat strange gaze, Su Tao said without missing a beat, "They were having a ‘buy one get one half off’ deal, so I just bought both."
Chi Xiaocheng blinked, still suspicious. "But what about the money? Did big brother give you more money?"
Their father was in the hospital, and big brother's money should all be going towards his care.
Hearing this, Su Tao proudly tilted her nose up. "I earned this money from painting commissions! If I work hard, I can finish one in three days, and each commission sells for a measly 100 yuan."
The truth was, Su Tao had been borrowing Xiao Wei’s tablet at school and in the dorm to draw.
It had taken her a week to earn 200 yuan from two commissions.
Just enough to buy these two hoodies.
Of course, she had an ulterior motive. She had specifically gone for matching outfits.
But her acting was top-notch at the moment, and Chi Xiaocheng couldn’t detect anything amiss. She even nodded in understanding.
After all, this was Tao Tao.
There was no way this blockhead would think about couple outfits.
Buy one get one half off made perfect sense.
Still, hadn’t she only been learning to draw for less than two months? And she was already earning 100 yuan per commission?
Talent was a terrifying thing.
Chi Xiaocheng took the hoodie and immediately stood up to take off her onesie.
She simply turned her back to Su Tao, not caring too much.
She quickly changed and then swept her long hair behind her, shaking her head playfully.
The movement was cute, and even cuter now that her body was covered by the hoodie.
Su Tao stared blankly.
Xiaocheng really had no self-awareness at all.
Thinking this, Su Tao also changed her clothes, first putting on a long-sleeved shirt and then the hoodie.
Her curvaceous, tall figure was on full display.
Chi Xiaocheng stared blankly.
Tao Tao really had no self-awareness at all.
Perhaps noticing Chi Xiaocheng’s gaze, Su Tao paused while pulling the hoodie over her head.
She stopped right below her collarbone, just before pulling it down.
From the side, the squeezing made her figure seem even more magnificent.
Su Tao asked, "Xiaocheng, what's wrong?"
Chi Xiaocheng quickly snapped back to reality, smiling shyly. "Tao Tao, you have a great figure."
"Thank you for the compliment."
Su Tao wasn’t too embarrassed.
But she still looked down at her chest, unable to see her toes.
She really needed to start taking care of her figure.
After all, Xiaocheng liked it so much.
Each with their own little thoughts, they finished getting ready in their matching outfits, and Chi Xiaocheng prepared to leave. "Should we bring Da Wang and Xiao Ran?"
"What would we do with those two third wheels? Let's go." Su Tao took her hand and opened the door.
Today's shopping trip could also be called a date.
The location and route had been decided last night, all up to Chi Xiaocheng.
So, after leaving the apartment complex, Su Tao looked at the girl next to her.
"Amusement park!" Chi Xiaocheng mysteriously pulled out two tickets from her pocket, smiling. "Dongfang Yang wanted to go with me last time, so he bought two amusement park tickets."
"But I didn't really want to go, so I turned him down."
"He gave me the tickets, saying they were supreme VIP tickets, with no expiration date, and that we could go anytime. Plus, with the ticket stubs, everything inside the park would be free."
"Of course, that’s just for food, drinks, and special attractions. We couldn't go in there and haul away merchandise like we were stocking a store."
Chi Xiaocheng giggled sheepishly.
The important thing was the word.
Free!
They were both short on cash these days. Chi Xiaocheng noticed that she had fish and meat every day, and there was always soup to drink.
Rib soup, fish soup, pigeon soup. Su Tao knew she was lacking in nutrition, so she never skimped on that.
She was almost trying to get some dragon meat for Chi Xiaocheng.
It was Chi Xiaocheng mentioning this that reminded Su Tao of Dongfang Yang inviting her to the amusement park last time.
Su Tao felt a little unhappy about using Dongfang Yang's stuff for a date.
Chi Xiaocheng noticed the slight change in Su Tao's expression, and, thinking she was worried about using the tickets carelessly, she continued to explain, "Tao Tao, don't worry. Dongfang Yang knew I didn't really want to go, and when he gave me the tickets, he just said I could go with you whenever I had time."
Su Tao was taken aback again. "Dongfang Yang said for both of us to go?"
"Yeah, otherwise the tickets would just be a waste."
Su Tao’s slightly annoyed mood turned complicated.
It was because this tsundere machine was too upright that Su Tao couldn't do anything when he pursued Chi Xiaocheng.
No matter how much strength she had, when she wanted to throw a punch, she always felt like she would be hitting cotton.
That Dongfang Yang guy…
Whatever. Next time, she'd beat up Si Chen a little more. Anyway, they were good brothers, so she’d let Si Chen take the blame for Dongfang Yang.
Comforting herself, Su Tao also became a little more expectant.
A date, an amusement park, quality time together, and a Ferris wheel!
Wasn't all this destiny?
The last time she and Chi Xiaocheng had come to an amusement park, it was still in that vivid and real dream.
She had mustered her courage, crossed the threshold in her heart, and made a heartfelt confession.
However, the Xiaocheng in the dream remained only in the dream.
When the dream shattered, she didn't even hear her confession.
The opportunity to win her back seemed to be right in front of her.
The two walked down the road, Su Tao holding Chi Xiaocheng's hand the whole way.
Without realizing it, she held it tighter and tighter.
