Chapter 414: The Young Woman'S Worries

Was it just her imagination?

No, it wasn't.

Su Tao twitched her nose again, the look of infatuation flashing across her face.

She was far too familiar with Chi Xiaocheng's scent, starting from the early sachets.

Those stress-relieving sachets were a product of the system. Back then, Su Tao felt like she had been thrown into a pressure cooker, the stress was immense. Chi Xiaocheng wanted to relieve Su Tao's stress and make her even more dependent on herself.

So, when choosing the "scent" for the sachets, she deliberately chose one identical to her own body fragrance.

A refreshing, light orange scent.

It smelled very pleasant, with an indescribable sweetness.

Because of that, starting with the early sachets, and then during the later "I'm sorry" period, spending night and day together in such intimacy, Chi Xiaocheng's scent had already been etched into Su Tao's DNA.

Now, just getting close...

She really felt that Chi Xiaocheng smelled much sweeter than usual.

It was a little strange, but she liked it very much.

Su Tao glanced at the large mirror in front of her, and said to Chi Xiaocheng, "Xiaocheng, can you turn to the side a little? The cord on this hairdryer is hard to manage."

"Okay."

Chi Xiaocheng also glanced at the mirror, a smile playing on her lips.

*Taotao*, your little thoughts have been seen through.

If I face the mirror, I can see you behind me as soon as I look up.

If I don't look at the mirror…

Chi Xiaocheng turned around, pretending to look down and browse on her phone.

Then she clearly felt the hairdryer blowing gentle warm air on her back, and Su Tao gently reached out a hand, holding a damp lock of her beautiful hair.

First, she brought it to her nose and smelled it, and then pretended to fix her bangs, deliberately getting close to Chi Xiaocheng.

She seemed to be drying her hair.

But her head was gently close to Chi Xiaocheng's nape, facing that delicate skin, and the few strands of curly hair that curled up from the roots, the infatuation on her face was even more obvious.

Xiaocheng's scent.

And the faint mist of water that hadn't completely dissipated from her skin after just showering.

So wonderful~

She was a little lost in it.

But it also confirmed what some unorthodox people said.

If a person is too upright, they will miss many "wonderful" things.

Su Tao's movements weren't slow, and to cover herself, she came to the front of Chi Xiaocheng, "Xiaocheng, close your eyes, let me dry your bangs."

Chi Xiaocheng raised her porcelain-white face, the warm orange light spreading a soft glow on the tip of her nose, her lips like newly blooming cherry blossoms, slowly closing her eyes.

From Su Tao's perspective, she could even see the girl's delicate collarbones without any cover.

Chi Xiaocheng's light, refreshing orange scent seemed even more pronounced at this moment.

Su Tao's knuckles were white as she gripped the hairdryer, her Adam's apple bobbing slightly as she swallowed her disordered breathing.

She didn't seem to be waiting for her hair to be dried.

It was more like...she was seeking something.

Su Tao knew she was overthinking, but she couldn't stop thinking about it.

The well-behaved and defenseless Xiaocheng in front of her was just too cute.

How about...stealing a kiss?

Anyway, with Xiaocheng's personality, even if she forced it, she wouldn't re...

Hey, no, that's not right.

Xiaocheng and I are already together, why am I still hesitating about this?

Su Tao froze for a moment, and directly threw the hairdryer aside.

Then she cupped Chi Xiaocheng's small face.

"Mmm...!"

We are a couple, there's no need to hesitate about these things.

This is very normal.

The young woman's sudden attack made Chi Xiaocheng's eyes widen instantly.

Feeling sweet and helpless at the same time, she began to respond "clumsily."

Secretly delighted, she also hugged the young woman closer and closer.

...

After a long while.

Chi Xiaocheng blushed, pushing Su Tao away with a hint of complaint, "Really, I was just getting my hair dried, and *Taotao* is being mischievous again!"

Su Tao chuckled, "Who told Xiaocheng to raise her head and close her eyes, clearly..."

The young woman's words were increasingly meaningful, making people unable to help but associate them with some strange content.

Making the girl's face turn red again.

"I... I didn't!"

After drying her hair, Chi Xiaocheng went straight into the blanket, using the blanket to cover her head, looking like she wouldn't pay attention to Su Tao all night.

The small bulge in the blanket occasionally trembled slightly.

A little happy, and very satisfied.

This was true for both of them.

The temporary residence didn't have anything external, no books to read, no computer or tablet, so she could only look at her phone out of boredom.

Su Tao quickly crawled into bed as well.

She put her arms around the girl, resting her chin on Chi Xiaocheng's shoulder.

"Let me hug you for a little while~"

Su Tao's voice was very soft, but you could feel the sense of relaxation in it.

There should still be some pressure in her heart.

Chi Xiaocheng didn't know where this pressure came from, so she had to ask, "*Taotao*, are you worried about what happened today?"

"A little." Su Tao breathed a sigh of relief, "That creepy feeling, it's very strange. My instincts told me it was very dangerous, and then those cars appeared to block us."

"I'm really a little scared."

"Scared?"

"Scared that something will happen to you again, scared that I can't protect you. We're just staying here with Si Chen now, but if Chu Lingfeng isn't eliminated, the danger is still there, right? Are we just going to keep hiding?"

Chi Xiaocheng could feel the young woman's hands gradually tightening around her.

Beneath her usual behavior was a subconscious anxiety that was constantly transmitted.

Su Tao didn't really like staying in one place with Chi Xiaocheng all the time.

Many people would think that a house, a phone and a computer, and the one who loves them, even if they only live in a very monotonous place, as long as they are together, that's enough.

As long as that kind of beauty is eternal.

But Su Tao wanted to take Chi Xiaocheng to witness the world's wonders with her own efforts.

Earn money to spend on her, buy her clothes, go traveling, and decorate a warm little home together, running a small shop, ordinary but not boring.

Rather than like now, where self-preservation is difficult, and they also need to rely on others.

It wasn't easy, but it was also the only way.

Amidst the chaos of her thoughts, the phone "dinged" once.

Su Tao turned over to pick it up, and found that it was a message from Si Chen: "Tonight I will send someone to your house to help you pack the necessary supplies to the villa I arranged for you. Is there anything you need to bring? Let me know in advance."

Su Tao handed the message to Chi Xiaocheng to read, "Xiaocheng, is there anything you want to take?"

Chi Xiaocheng blinked, "I don't feel like there's much. A change of clothes, and then bring *Dawang* and *Xiaoran* over. Besides that, it seems there's nothing?"

She didn't have many necessities.

Mainly because she didn't have money to buy them.

Su Tao nodded, "I don't seem to have anything either. I'll let Si Chen watch over the packing. If there are no accidents, we'll be staying here for a long time. Seriously, we might not even be able to go to school."

I hope that Chi Song-ge and Si Chen can solve Chu Lingfeng as soon as possible.

That way, I can live a truly peaceful life.

Su Tao thought so, and looked at the message sent by Si Chen again, gently stroking Chi Xiaocheng's hair, "Go to bed early, we have to get up early tomorrow to set off in order to prevent accidents."

"Then one more kiss before bed."

"I really can't do anything with you, Xiaocheng."

"Hehe, I just like *Taotao*." Chi Xiaocheng turned over and took the initiative to lean in.

"Mua~"

Then good night, and looking forward to everything being safe on the second day.
