Chapter 448 The Person Playing The Girlfriend

Facing Su Tao's shaking, Xiao Wei remained silent, calmly turning over and slapping away Su Tao's hand that was on the bedside, continuing to sleep.

Su Tao's lips twitched.

At such a crucial moment, couldn't you be as reliable as Chen Qian, Xiao Wei!

Su Tao knew that her good friend just liked to sleep to conserve energy, rather than having some sort of sleep disorder.

Helpless, she had no choice but to snatch the blanket away from her.

Perhaps because she had lost her protective gear, Xiao Wei sat up with a start. "Su Tao, what are you doing?"

Su Tao said directly, "Xiao Wei, stop sleeping. My phone is broken. Lend me two thousand yuan and come with me to buy a new one."

"Okay." Xiao Wei turned around and grabbed her bag from the bedside, then handed it to Su Tao. "My wallet and phone are all in there. The payment password is my birthday. Take it and do what you think is best."

"Thank you."

The girl lay straight back down, gently pulled the blanket over herself, and closed her eyes peacefully.

Leaving Su Tao in silence.

Xiao Wei, I'm really happy that you trust me so much.

But with you saying that, how could I really take your money and spend it recklessly!

The main thing was that Xiao Wei trusted Su Tao so much, and she didn't even know Xiao Wei's birthday. She felt truly ashamed.

Not giving the other party a chance to refuse, Su Tao pulled her out of bed without a word.

She easily tied up the hair of the still sleepy Xiao Wei, and then immediately dragged her towards the door.

"Wait a minute, Su Tao, I stayed up late last night. I haven't finished catching up on sleep today!"

"You've been sleeping all day and haven't caught up yet? If Chen Qian hadn't brought you lunch, I'd eat the billboard at the school gate."

"Waaah~"

In the end, Su Tao promised to give her a super memory foam pillow that would help her sleep well, and only then did Xiao Wei follow Su Tao to an offline phone store with a lively spirit.

What Su Tao didn't expect was that the two phone stores they went to were both shops affiliated with the Dongfang Yang family. Who around this university town didn't know her, Su Tao?

When she went to buy a phone, the shop assistants wanted to give her a discount without saying a word.

Perhaps knowing that she owed them too much, Su Tao also bargained fiercely with the shop assistant, and only then did she get the phone back to its original price. Then she spent a full 2,000 yuan to buy a decent phone that she thought she could use for five or six years.

Next was the phone card, and after some back and forth, Su Tao finally logged into her WeChat.

She quickly synced her messages and opened Luo Ying's chat history.

It was still that lonely sentence from before: "Xiao Cheng agreed."

Su Tao's pupils contracted slightly. "No follow-up?"

Could it be that Xiao Cheng really directly agreed to Dongfang Yang?

Su Tao quickly dismissed Xiao Wei, telling her to go back to sleep, while she quickly sent a message to Luo Ying: "Luo Ying, where are you?"

Su Tao hoped that the other party would reply immediately.

But the result was that after waiting for three minutes, the other party still hadn't replied.

This made her feel even more conflicted.

What is the truth?!!

She sighed deeply and walked back to school alone. There were students coming and going who had finished class. Some seemed to want to strike up a conversation, but stopped when they saw Su Tao's somewhat depressed expression.

When she got back to the dormitory door, Su Tao found that Xiao Wei hadn't returned yet, and the door key was on her.

Helpless, she went to the duty room on the first floor. "Auntie, can I have the key to 801? I forgot to bring my key. I'll return it after I unlock the door."

Responding to Su Tao was a small hand reaching out from under the counter and pushing the small notebook on the table. "You need to register to get the key."

A familiar voice...

Su Tao's eyes flashed, and she saw a long-haired little thing crawling out from under the counter.

"Eh? Senior Su Tao?"

Seeing the familiar little one, Su Tao was also stunned for a moment. "Fang Ning... what are you doing here?"

"I'm on duty here. School has started now."

Fang Ning herself had been temporarily working as a guard in this dormitory building last semester because of Dongfang Yang.

Going back to the cat cafe seemed to be because she had nowhere to live, and because Chi Xiao Cheng had faked her death, she was heartbroken and planned to use cats to heal herself.

But Su Tao had forgotten about this.

Fang Ning raised a friendly smile. "But even if it's Senior Su Tao, you still have to register. It's a work rule. But if you come back late at night, I can secretly open the door for you."

Su Tao revealed a relaxed smile. "Thank you. Speaking of which, have you seen Xiao Cheng? Did she come back to the dormitory this afternoon?"

"She came back for a while when class ended just now, but after changing her clothes, she went out again."

"Went out?" Su Tao asked curiously.

Fang Ning nodded. "Yes, it seems like she said she was going to do something for Brother Dongfang."

"Doing something for Dongfang Yang!"

Could it be...

Was Dongfang Yang taking action so quickly?

Su Tao's face was anxious. She had already signed halfway, but suddenly ran out again.

Fang Ning was a little confused by Su Tao's actions, but she still thoughtfully sent a message to Chi Xiao Cheng.

Senior Su Tao is in a hurry, it seems like something urgent is happening. Senior Xiao Cheng, you have to be careful.

Chi Xiao Cheng naturally didn't know about Su Tao's anxiety.

She didn't bother to look at any school forums.

As soon as class was over, she changed her clothes and ran out.

Dongfang Yang was in a hurry to find someone to pretend to be his girlfriend, so naturally, it was best to get it done as soon as possible.

And the person to pretend to be his girlfriend...

Had to know Dongfang Yang, and have a pretty good relationship with him, and also had to be good-looking, with a unique temperament that wasn't too generic.

Chi Xiao Cheng had already decided on the candidate in her heart.

Of course, Fang Ning also seemed suitable for this role, but the difference in status between Fang Ning and Dongfang Yang was too great.

It definitely couldn't be her.

Soon, Chi Xiao Cheng arrived outside a coffee shop.

Moonlight Coffee Shop.

Originally Dongfang Yang's property, Chi Xiao Cheng and Su Tao had both worked here briefly. Later, because of the exchange of interests between the Dongfang family and the Qian family, this coffee shop changed hands to Qian Qing.

Yes, this intellectual older sister, Dongfang Yang's childhood sweetheart, was Chi Xiao Cheng's target this time!

Entering the coffee shop, she saw this older sister leaning lazily at the counter. When she saw the door open, she yawned indifferently. "Welcome, what would you like to drink?"

She was still following the high-end coffee shop route, which resulted in very few people in the entire coffee shop.

Looking up and seeing Chi Xiao Cheng come to her side, Qian Qing lost all interest. "What is it? It's just Xiao Chengzi. What's the matter with you coming to me? I can give you a 5% discount on coffee."

Chi Xiao Cheng went straight to the point. "Sister Qian Qing, there's something I want to ask you to help with!"

"No."

"Huh?!"

"Whenever you and Su Tao come to me, it's usually some kind of trouble. I don't want to."

Chi Xiao Cheng was speechless for a moment. "I don't think I've ever asked you to help with anything, have I?"

Qian Qing said, "The first time I met you and Su Tao was at your house. At that time, you... uh, anyway, it was a bad thing. After comforting Su Tao, I had to help you mop the floor..."

Heaven knows how much pressure she was under after Dongfang Yang called her.

Su Tao, who was almost mentally broken.

And when she went into the bathroom, the floor of the entire bathroom was red. It was like walking into some kind of horror movie set!
