Peach-Orange! – Chapter 447 – Military Strategist, You’re Too Strong!

Having a military strategist who can analyze things seriously is really important.

If Jiang Nan hadn’t said that, Su Tao would have already rushed anxiously towards Chi Xiaocheng’s classroom.

Even if the girl was still in class, she probably would have found an excuse to pull Chi Xiaocheng out first.

And at that time, an ordinary inquiry might have turned into an interrogation because of her somewhat agitated state of mind.

Su Tao took a deep breath. “I’ll listen to you. So what should I do next?”

Jiang Nan stroked her chin. “No matter what, you have to wait until after class. You can first go find the person who gave you the message and ask about the real, specific situation. Ask exactly what happened.

“Secondly, that thing happened in the girls’ dormitory, right? Go ask the girls on the first floor of our dorm building. I don’t believe they wouldn’t be eating up this gossip. See if it’s really like what the news department said.

“Then, go ask Dongfang Yang. The young master is a straightforward person; he probably wouldn’t hide it from you. In short, you can ask anyone except Chi Xiaocheng.

“However….” Jiang Nan’s tone shifted. “There’s also a method of advancing by retreating. Have someone forward the news department’s post to Xiaocheng. If Xiaocheng cares about you, she will definitely take the initiative to come find you and explain.

“This way, it’s better for confirming whether or not she has changed her heart, and at the same time, it won’t create a trust crisis because of your anxiety.”

Su Tao listened carefully to Jiang Nan’s words, even writing them down in her notebook.

It was truly an eye-opener, like clouds parting to see the sun.

So capable, Lady Jiang Nan!

Su Tao’s eyes were shining. “I’ll go investigate secretly after class. I think this must be a misunderstanding.”

Jiang Nan sighed helplessly. “So, you should also consider what I said last time. The most important thing is to get a firm hold on Xiaocheng first.”

“Um… which last time?”

Jiang Nan: “…”

‘So, letting you experience a girl’s happiness and then going to test Xiaocheng’s physical condition… you didn’t remember any of that at all.’

‘This blockhead! No wonder she gets so anxious over one message.’

Jiang Nan waved her hand dismissively. “Forget it, it’s nothing. If you want to repay me, bring me breakfast tomorrow for the 8 AM class.”

“Okay!”

Su Tao also calmed her mood. Turning around intending to continue drawing and taking orders, she inevitably saw the crushed phone debris she had placed in the drawer.

The good news is her hand wasn’t injured, saving medical fees.

The bad news is, the phone is gone….

Although this phone that came with a prepaid plan was getting laggier, it was still fine for daily use and watching videos.

Su Tao originally thought it could hold on for a few more years.

She didn’t expect to need a new phone now.

Right now, counting the commissions she takes, even an urgent commission completed within 24 hours is only about 150 per order.

Normal orders, before her skill level increases, are also between 100-200.

How many orders would she need to take to earn back the money for this phone!?

“I hope the SIM card isn’t broken.”

Su Tao carefully dismembered her old companion, only to tragically discover that the SIM card had been snapped in half.

How much does it cost to get a replacement, 50?

Impulse is the devil. She truly understood that today.

Su Tao sighed and scratched her hair vigorously. “I feel like I’m not the impatient type. Why do I get so restless when it comes to Xiaocheng? Su Tao, oh Su Tao, you really need to reflect on yourself.”

Her thoughts drifted to the girl she constantly thought about.

Then they drifted from Chi Xiaocheng to Dongfang Yang.

The more she thought about it, the more aggrieved Su Tao felt.

No matter how she thought about it, she could do nothing about Dongfang Yang.

Even if he pursued Xiaocheng, she could only state her position that she and Xiaocheng were already together.

But she had already told Dongfang Yang this position back at the hospital when Xiaocheng had amnesia.

At that time, Dongfang Yang was still narcissistically thinking she liked him.

And after she said she liked Xiaocheng and only saw him as an older brother, Dongfang Yang didn’t bother her anymore, nor did he look at her with strange eyes.

He truly fulfilled what he said.

He reduced misunderstandings and stopped pursuing her, Su Tao.

That unnecessary feeling was also snuffed out in his heart.

But Su Tao couldn’t stop him regarding Chi Xiaocheng.

He had helped her too much. Forget favors, Dongfang Yang’s hospital had almost become Chi Xiaocheng’s private hospital. Those high-end instruments back then probably cost millions, even tens of millions, right?

That’s why Su Tao was conflicted.

Dongfang Yang… she couldn’t touch him.

She couldn’t take any slightly extreme actions, like threatening or crippling him.

If she can’t touch Dongfang Yang, and it’s at most a fair competition, then how about….

‘Let’s just take out Si Chen first.’

‘He hasn’t shown his face for a long time either; he’s probably up to no good secretly.’

And that strange glasses….

Su Tao did hide the glasses well, but should she use the glasses again to check Xiaocheng’s current stats?

Amidst her random thoughts, she lost the heart to continue drawing. After class ended, she immediately rushed to Chi Xiaocheng’s classroom, but only three to five people remained inside; everyone else had already left.

Su Tao withdrew her gaze. On her way back to the dorm, she ran into Luo Shan, her mixed-race roommate.

If she remembered correctly, the other party seemed to be in the same department as Xiaocheng.

Su Tao quickly asked, “Luo Shan, have you seen Xiaocheng and Luo Ying?”

“Xiaocheng? The little sister you brought back to the dorm last time, right? Who is Luo Ying?”

“Um… a friend of mine. I thought since you are all exchange students, you might know each other.”

“Not really. Although we come from the same university, we’re not in the same major. I saw her on the way here, but I really don’t know her name.” Luo Shan’s smile was very shy. “I didn’t see your little sister. I left right after class ended. Sorry.”

“It’s fine, it’s fine. Sorry to bother you. We haven’t eaten together since you arrived at school, right? Another day, let’s call Chen Qian and Xiao Wei, and we can eat together and get to know each other.”

“Okay~”

After saying goodbye to her roommate, Su Tao subconsciously wanted to reach into her pocket, but the crushed phone had already been thrown in the trash.

She wanted to buy a phone, but all she had left, including her savings, was just over a thousand yuan.

And this was the living expenses for both her and Chi Xiaocheng.

Never mind whether this money is enough to buy a phone.

Her money is stored in WeChat. Without a phone, she can’t get this money out.

‘You spend money to buy a phone.’

‘But my money is in the phone.’

‘Then you spend money to buy a phone!’

‘But my money is in the phone!’

‘Then you spend….’

Without a phone, you really can’t move an inch.

The only way is… to borrow money.

Ask Dongfang Yang?

‘No, no, how can I go ask Dongfang Yang? He’s my rival!’

‘Si Chen is even worse.’

After thinking it over, Su Tao thought of another good close friend.

She hurried back to the dorm, looked around and found Chen Qian wasn’t there.

Left with no choice, she could only shake awake the girl sleeping soundly on the bed. “Xiao Wei, Xiao Wei, help me!”
