Chapter 482 Chapter 480: A Deception
Chapter 480: A Deception
Seeing Su Tao remain silent, the smile on Song Liyin's lips gradually changed.
It wasn't the smugness Su Tao had anticipated.
Instead, it was an indescribable sorrow.
As if looking at a stray puppy on the side of the road, pitied by no one, Song Liyin continued, "See? You can't refute me. You can only admit your weakness, right? Admit that Chi Xiaocheng doesn't truly belong to you alone."
Her barrage continued.
But as she opened her mouth again, another small figure darted forward.
Chi Xiaocheng stood in front of Su Tao, staring directly at Song Liyin, "Enough, you surnamed Song! If you're trying to sow discord, then I'm sorry to say you're absolutely going to fail!"
The girl's words were confident. One hand even took Su Tao's other hand. The light from the crystal chandelier shone on her pure white dress. At that moment, Chi Xiaocheng looked like a true angel.
Her voice was firm and strong, "I won't betray Tao Tao, and I believe in Tao Tao. How dare you say she can't give me a better life? As someone high above, you must not understand, right?"
"Being by Tao Tao's side, no matter what kind of life it is, is the best for me!"
"So!" Chi Xiaocheng's voice grew louder, "If you're just here to declare war, you can go back now. Although we can't fight you right now, please tell that young lady, don't underestimate a youth!"
It wasn't heated passion or teenage bravado.
But Chi Xiaocheng knew that at this moment, she had to stand up for Su Tao.
Song Liyin must have been influenced by the world's will.
Her words were incredibly seductive!
Right now, Tao Tao's trust level still hadn't dropped below 50%. If she let her continue, Chi Xiaocheng could sense that something bad would definitely happen.
Interrupted, Song Liyin wasn't angry. Instead, she looked at Chi Xiaocheng with great interest, "She really is adorable."
"You—!"
Song Liyin held up a finger, interrupting Chi Xiaocheng's words, "Chi Xiaocheng, want to consider talking to my young lady? My young lady is extremely interested in you. If I had to say, Su Tao is really not as good as my young lady."
Chi Xiaocheng looked at Song Liyin, who had changed the subject, and frowned deeply.
This person was influencing Tao Tao at every moment.
No matter what they talked about, the rhythm of the conversation was firmly in her grasp.
More importantly, neither she nor Su Tao could do anything to this person.
"Tch!"
Since communication would cause problems, she chose not to communicate.
Chi Xiaocheng grabbed Su Tao's hand and quickly said, "Tao Tao, let's go. Don't talk to her."
With that, she pulled Su Tao and turned to leave.
"Xiaocheng, I..."
"Tao Tao, don't say anything yet. That maid is deliberately influencing you. Can't you see that? Let's not talk to her."
Chi Xiaocheng didn't give Su Tao a chance to say more, and headed straight for the entrance of the hall.
Her intention to interrupt wasn't wrong.
But Chi Xiaocheng had overlooked a fact: Su Tao was constantly being influenced by the world's will.
Or rather, Chi Xiaocheng knew that Su Tao was already being influenced by the world's will, but didn't realize that the influence was already so strong.
She was blinded by Su Tao's acting, and without the system or Xiao Hei's reminders, she was caught in a confusing situation.
In this state, was interrupting this exchange in this way really the right thing to do?
Su Tao followed behind Chi Xiaocheng in silence.
That maid was right.
She, Su Tao, really couldn't give Xiaocheng the life she wanted, couldn't rely on her own charm to firmly lock this girl by her side.
But why not continue talking to that maid? Xiaocheng, you can refute her, and I can refute her too.
Say that being by my side is the life you want most.
Say you believe in me, you like me.
But how have your actions proven any of these words you've said!
Always with Dongfang Yang.
Weaving lies about being a girlfriend with Bian Qingye at the cafe.
Now that you've really used this lie to deceive me, you say you like me so much…
The two of them, one in front and one behind, quickly slipped out of the back door of the banquet hall.
Behind the villa was a back garden with a faint fragrance.
But after they went outside, the other two protagonists were also there.
Dongfang Yang and Bian Qing, were bickering flirtatiously about something.
Seeing Su Tao and Chi Xiaocheng come out, they both seemed to have found their backbone.
Bian Qing quickly lifted her skirt and walked quickly to Chi Xiaocheng, "Chi Xiaocheng! I told you it wouldn't work to let me go, but you insisted on me going. Now it's going to be exposed. That old Dongfang...the old boss, isn't that easy to fool!"
"Uh...what happened?" Chi Xiaocheng asked, confused.
Dongfang Yang sighed beside her, "The matter of letting Bian Qing act as my fake girlfriend was seen through. He didn't say anything at the banquet, but just now my seventh uncle called us in and exposed us directly."
Chi Xiaocheng: "Because of the family's inequality?"
"No!" Dongfang Yang and Bian Qing said in unison.
Dongfang Yang said speechlessly, "It's because Bian Qing's acting is bad. I asked her to kiss me and she didn't even dare to. Not to mention kissing on the lips, even kissing on the cheek would be fine. Wouldn't that prove that we're a couple?"
Bian Qing couldn't help but retort, "I have to give up my first kiss just to act in a play with you, Dongfang Yang. You don't really want to be my boyfriend, this is just acting. How could I give it to you!"
Dongfang Yang: "Just a kiss on the cheek, right?"
"Kissing on the cheek is also a no!"
They bickered with each other, but their tone revealed helplessness towards each other.
This kind of quarrel, on the contrary, seemed like mutual complaints and flirting between lovers.
Of course, this was from an outsider's point of view.
In the eyes of Dongfang Yang and Su Tao, they both thought this was a very serious and stubborn quarrel.
Dongfang Yang sighed, "The plan has failed. If I don't convince my seventh uncle, I might really have to go back to the capital."
As he spoke, he looked at Chi Xiaocheng, "Chi Xiaocheng, if I had known, I would have had you pretend to be my fake girlfriend. Bian Qing is really unreliable."
Dongfang Yang was regretting it to death now.
He believed that if it were Chi Xiaocheng, when faced with his seventh uncle's questioning, if he asked her to kiss him, not on the lips, but just on the cheek, Chi Xiaocheng would definitely stand on tiptoe and do it.
After all, she also likes me, Dongfang Yang, doesn't she?
Now he had switched to Bian Qing.
They were already so familiar, why wouldn't Bian Qing kiss him?
Chi Xiaocheng too, since she likes me, why doesn't she want to pretend to be my girlfriend?
Dongfang Yang didn't speak, but just felt that a woman's mind was hard to guess.
At this time, Su Tao, who had been quietly listening and smiling, also interjected, "Xiaocheng, do you think you could fool Professor Dongfang Wen if you went up?"
Chi Xiaocheng scratched her head, "I wouldn't be able to either. That old professor is a master of both hypnosis and psychology. He's too powerful."
So, it wasn't a refusal, but an admission of inability?
A hint of self-deprecation flashed in Su Tao's eyes.
Sure enough, this so-called fake girlfriend and banquet was a deception.
Deceiving not only Dongfang Wen.
But also her, Su Tao.
