Peach-Orange! – Chapter 213 – Tang Tang, Do You Like Su Tao?

Before long, Su Tao and Chengcheng went out again, arriving at the neighborhood entrance as a BMW pulled up.

The somewhat petite yet exceptionally delicate-looking driver in the driver’s seat brushed aside her bangs. “Sorry for the wait, hop in!”

Her voice sounded youthful, like a child still going through voice changes, but it was unmistakably a girl’s voice.

Su Tao pulled Chengcheng into the back seat and made introductions. “This is Chengcheng, another friend of mine.”

“And this is Tang Tang, my middle school classmate and also the second daughter of the Tang Group in Jiuzhou City.”

Chengcheng fastened her seatbelt and looked curiously at Tang Tang. “Second daughter?”

Tang Tang laughed. “That sounds way too exaggerated. It’s just that my dad runs a decent company. Nice to meet you, Miss Chengcheng.”

Since she was driving, she didn’t offer a handshake.

Noticing Chengcheng still staring at her strangely, Tang Tang seemed to realize something and chuckled again. “Ahh~ You’re misunderstanding my appearance, right? I just look like a tomboy, but actually, I prefer a cooler, more stylish look.

“After all, I’m not as pretty as Su Tao. If I had her looks and figure, I’d flaunt them too.”

Su Tao rolled her eyes at Tang Tang. “You can chat, but don’t drag me into it, okay? I hardly ever pay attention to things like looks….”

As she spoke, she subconsciously touched the high ponytail she’d tied today and adjusted the collar of her brown coat.

Seeing Su Tao’s little movements in the rearview mirror, Tang Tang clicked her tongue. “Tsk tsk, that face is a solid 9.7 out of 10, right? Slim waist, long legs, and a great chest… if you were just 5 cm taller and hit 1.7 meters, I can’t even imagine how many boys would fall for you.

“Not to mention your personality is great too. Though my impression of you is still from middle school, after not seeing you for these few years, you’ve somehow become someone I admire.”

As Tang Tang teased her, Su Tao’s face grew increasingly embarrassed. She grabbed a pillow and smacked Tang Tang’s head with it. “Shut up! Stop talking about this stuff!”

“Hahahaha!”

The friendly banter between the two was quietly observed by Chengcheng.

Su Tao didn’t notice that Chengcheng, who was usually quite talkative, had grown somewhat silent now.

She merely narrowed her eyes slightly, glancing back and forth between the two.

Soon, the three of them discussed where to go for lunch.

After some back-and-forth, Tang Tang made the executive decision: Su Tao would treat them to KFC.

They found a relatively secluded corner, sat down, and began chatting.

Most of the conversation was between Su Tao and Tang Tang. The two had parted ways after middle school but reunited three years later in university.

Neither of them was the type to clam up in social situations, so the two talkative girls chatted happily.

French fries were poured onto a napkin on the tray, followed by a packet of ketchup.

After Su Tao dipped one and took a bite, Tang Tang picked up a fry and dipped it into the same ketchup.

She didn’t even open a new packet for herself.

Chengcheng noticed these little details and quietly tugged at Su Tao, leaning in to whisper a reminder: “You and this Tang Tang are getting a bit too close. If your Xiaocheng found out, wouldn’t she get jealous?”

Su Tao paused, then explained, “We’re just friends. Besides, we’re both girls. But thanks for the reminder, Chengcheng. I’ll keep my distance from other guys.”

Even without her saying so, Su Tao had already been consciously maintaining distance from Dongfang Yang and Si Chen.

What Su Tao didn’t realize was that a yandere would get jealous over girls too.

It wasn’t that she couldn’t have friends, but she needed to give the other person enough sense of security first.

Ultimately, it was a matter of perspective. After all, Xiaocheng wasn’t here right now, was she?

Soon, Chengcheng joined the three-way conversation, engaging Tang Tang in some light dialogue.

“What kind of person does Tang Tang think Tao-Tao is?”

“The kind who’s unique and perfect, I guess? Even back in middle school, she stood out. Lots of classmates liked and admired Su Tao.”

“You said you admire a girl like Tao-Tao. Since she’s so perfect, do you like her?”

“Ahahaha, depends on what kind of ‘like’ you mean. A girl like Su Tao, even if you take romance out of the equation, no one could dislike her, right?”

“Would you ever feel the urge to pursue her?”

“Well, that’d depend on whether Su Tao would even look my way. Honestly, if I were a guy, I’d chase after Su Tao without hesitation.”

“That’s a pretty rude answer, you know. Tao-Tao already has a partner.”

“Wait, really? Su Tao, you have a partner now? Tell me, who’s the lucky person who won your heart?”

Faced with Tang Tang’s relentless questioning, Su Tao helplessly pressed a hand to her forehead.

This was exactly why she often saw Chi Xiaocheng’s shadow in Chengcheng.

This senior, two years her elder, also had a habit of fixating on strange details and digging relentlessly for answers.

Then she’d just sit back with a smirk, enjoying the other person’s reactions.

Just like how she’d dragged Su Tao’s avoided issues out into the open.

But it was precisely because of this that Su Tao had come to face her feelings for Xiaocheng.

No matter what happened, someone who always shielded you couldn’t truly be called a friend.

Sometimes, people only wake up after being scolded.

At this point, Tang Tang’s eyes were practically pleading. “Su Tao, just tell me! Who’s your partner? How are things between you two? Why haven’t you brought him out to hang out? I’d love to meet him!”

Su Tao sighed and pushed Tang Tang’s eager face away, smiling faintly. “Calling her my ‘partner’ isn’t quite accurate.”

Chengcheng glanced over. “She’s not your partner?”

Su Tao tapped her cheek with a finger. “I haven’t officially confessed to her yet, so I don’t even know if we count as partners in her mind.”

Meanwhile, Tang Tang looked like she was about to scream. “You’re the one confessing to him? What kind of godly man could make you fall in love!?”

Her outburst drew stares from other customers nearby.

Su Tao laughed awkwardly. “Not a man.”

“Huh?”

Tang Tang blinked blankly.

Su Tao said, “The person I like… you know her too. She’s that little one who always followed me around back in middle school.”

Tang Tang immediately clutched her forehead, processing this information overload. “You mean… Chi Xiaocheng?”

“Yep!”

Su Tao nodded without hesitation, openly admitting it.

Though her slightly reddened earlobes betrayed that she was still a little embarrassed.

But being able to acknowledge so naturally in public that her girlfriend was Chi Xiaocheng was already huge progress.

Su Tao noticed the girl beside her sipping Coke, looking inexplicably pleased. “Chengcheng, why do you look so happy?”

Chengcheng stood up and smiled lightly. “Because I’m on Team Orange-Peach. Hearing you say that makes me happy, of course.”

Though her happiness only extended so far.

Chengcheng glanced at Tang Tang, meeting her gaze, and her smile widened.
