Peach-Orange! – Chapter 550 – The Alluring Ponytail

The night in Jiuzhou City was bright, filled with a sky full of twinkling stars.

The constantly flashing neon lights dyed the entire sky a shade of orange-yellow, contrasting beautifully with the starry sky.

In today’s civilized, safe, and harmonious society, although temporary activities like gas explosions in the city, bang-bang-bang gun games, and helicopters rattling as they scatter lottery tickets occasionally occur, overall, this world is still very safe.

Everyone lives and works in peace and contentment, and life goes on as usual.

This night was already the third day of Chi Xiaocheng’s stay at Great Sun Hospital. With her orange cells, her arm no longer needed bandages or a splint.

Although she could move normally and had no problem eating with a spoon, she still couldn’t engage in strenuous exercise.

It wasn’t so much the assistance of medicine, but rather self-healing.

The medicine accelerated the healing of the external injury, and the rest was done by the orange cells.

Precisely because of this, as many Orange Peach stand-ins gradually “discharged” from the hospital, and Chi Xiaocheng didn’t necessarily need to receive treatment in the hospital anymore, the two of them needed to act soon.

The smoke bomb had been deployed; the real person, of course, should also take advantage of this time to start escaping.

Si Chen had even sent news.

As the two “Orange Peach” stand-ins tirelessly took flights abroad, on the same day, two other planes changed their routes and followed them.

The effectiveness of the smoke bomb was evident.

Under the mix of starlight and lights, Su Tao and Chi Xiaocheng strolled together on the hospital lawn.

Holding hands, the fingertips of the larger hand clasping the palm of the smaller one.

“Xiaocheng.”

The young girl’s voice sounded in her ear.

Chi Xiaocheng turned her head to look at the young girl’s exquisite profile. “What is it?”

“Tell me, if we defeat that so-called World Will, can we be like we are now, walking together every day in such a quiet and relaxing environment, without having to worry about someone suddenly appearing to disrupt our lives?”

These past two days, she had also openly discussed with Chi Xiaocheng about the dreams and the matter of the World Will.

Xiao Hei is Xiaocheng’s guardian god.

This little loli knew about these things earlier than she did, which was within Su Tao’s expectations. The three of them even had a discussion about these matters.

They had formed a slight preliminary plan.

But Su Tao still felt a faint unease in her heart.

Because their enemy was the entire world.

The young girl’s melancholy tone was very obvious, which made Chi Xiaocheng show a helpless smile. “Why is Tao-Tao getting all sentimental now?”

“I’m not.”

“You’re not? These past few days, the smile on your face hasn’t been as heartfelt as before. It’s more forced, to humor me.”

Su Tao was stunned, glancing sideways at the girl. “Is that so?”

“Yes!” Chi Xiaocheng nodded seriously. “You’ve been listless, looking as if the world is about to end. You’ve sighed many times more than before. More importantly…”

Chi Xiaocheng leaned back slightly, her gaze stopping on Su Tao’s high ponytail. “Tao-Tao, your ponytail is tied much lower than usual!”

Although it was still that dashing and neat high ponytail, the change in height was something Chi Xiaocheng, as the one who shares her pillow, felt very clearly.

But who knew, upon hearing this, Su Tao instead rolled her eyes at her. “Xiaocheng, don’t you know? A so-called high ponytail is just forcibly combing the hair up high and then fixing it in that place.”

“A simpler way to put it is, if the hair is constantly being pulled…” She paused, her tone extremely serious. “It can easily lead to baldness.”

The hairline continuously recedes, eventually leaving only a monk’s spot.

Of course, that’s an exaggeration, but it’s true that tying a high ponytail too often can gradually raise the hairline.

When you all become girls, you’ll understand this feeling.

This small detail really scared Chi Xiaocheng.

She quickly rummaged through the system’s various items, and then, right in front of Su Tao, materialized a bottle of hair conditioner out of thin air, handing it to Su Tao. “Tao-Tao, then use this when you wash your hair normally.”

Su Tao didn’t pay attention to the conditioner itself, but rather to Chi Xiaocheng’s ability to materialize things out of thin air.

Her mouth fell open. “Xiaocheng, this… couldn’t it also be…”

“Hehe.” Chi Xiaocheng showed a proud smile. “This is impressive, right? It’s something Xiao Hei created by borrowing the authority of the World Will.”

Anyway, the system and Xiao Hei were almost bound together; pushing anything onto Xiao Hei was sure to be correct.

Explaining the system would require a lot of time.

This scene also made Su Tao click her tongue in amazement. “So amazing.”

Chi Xiaocheng sighed. “It’s a pity the usage restrictions for this ability are quite significant. Otherwise, we wouldn’t need to fear the World Will at all.”

As soon as these words were spoken, the system also spoke up.

[Host, I must remind you, you currently have 4469 points of emotional value. It’s best to plan and use it sparingly.]

Originally, she only had two thousand points.

But Su Tao and Dongfang Yang, upon learning the truth, also provided Chi Xiaocheng with a lot of emotional value respectively.

And this was almost the last bit from the two of them.

Su Tao’s character weight decreased, and with various emotions and content, what could be squeezed out had long been squeezed dry by Chi Xiaocheng.

Dongfang Yang need not be mentioned even more.

His character weight forcefully dropped to zero, and Chi Xiaocheng could no longer perform the daily 200-point emotional value farm on him.

Now, emotional value was truly something that decreased with every use.

And this bottle of all-around hair conditioner, which even makes hair better and softer, directly consumed 40 points of her emotional value.

The system issued this reminder because it was afraid Chi Xiaocheng would use it recklessly.

She certainly knew this.

But, Tao-Tao is equally important.

It was also at this moment, after Chi Xiaocheng materialized a fruit knife out of thin air and stored it in the system space, that Su Tao put away her amazement at this ability.

Then, she smiled very indulgently. “Even without this hair conditioner, as long as Xiaocheng likes it, I’ll tie a high ponytail every day.”

After saying this, she reached behind her, took off the hair tie holding the ponytail.

A waterfall of beautiful hair fell, straight down to just below her waist.

Su Tao stood in front of Chi Xiaocheng, habitually tossing her head slightly. Her jet-black hair with a hint of dark blue swayed accordingly, carrying a faint fragrance.

The young girl smoothed her sideburns.

Holding the hair tie in her mouth, her hands skillfully pulled her hair back.

As strand after strand of hair was lifted, her alluringly fair nape was revealed.

Her slender fingertips smoothed through the hair, then quickly picked up the hair tie, and in a few moves, tied a new high ponytail.

The young girl stood straight, reached her hand to the end of the ponytail, flicked it, and then tossed her head. “Done!”

The new high ponytail no longer had the slight “droop” that Chi Xiaocheng had mentioned earlier.

Su Tao raised an eyebrow, looking at the girl beside her. “Xiaocheng, how does it look now?”

“Hmm…” Chi Xiaocheng stared at Su Tao’s ponytail, thinking deeply for a moment. “Actually, I think it might also be nice if Tao-Tao let her hair down, becoming a straight, long black hairstyle?”
