Peach-Orange! – Chapter 581 – News of the War God Father

Su Tao could be sure that since returning, even when she went out during this period, it was always around 4 a.m.

The night had ended, the morning sun had not yet risen; it was the time when people were most tired. At this hour, she would disguise herself and secretly go out to the first-floor elevator entrance to meet with Envoy Qiu’s underlings for the handover.

The other party would deliver ingredients for the next few days.

Along with some daily necessities that might be needed.

Moreover, Su Tao dared to guarantee that no one had discovered their transactions. For safety, the surrounding cameras had also been hacked, so outsiders investigating wouldn’t find anything.

No outsiders knew that she and Xiaocheng had returned home.

This was also the reason why, even after over a full week had passed, it remained extremely safe.

But now, this note!

It gave Su Tao an immense sense of crisis.

Someone had found out that she and Xiaocheng had returned home!

Was this a warning?

Or something else?

Her hand trembled slightly as she reached for the note. Su Tao even hallucinated the scene of the World Will coming for Xiaocheng again, wanting to kill her.

Before, she didn’t want Chi Xiaocheng to get hurt.

After experiencing the joy of being a girl once, she wanted that kind of thing to happen even less.

Her heart pounding, she clutched the note in her hand and looked at the message on the back, instantly widening her eyes again.

—Young Lady, I am Naiyue. I don’t know if you still remember me, we met briefly at the last banquet. I represent your father. If you have time, I will wait for you in the residential complex’s underground parking lot at 4:30 a.m. tonight.

The note wasn’t long, but it made Su Tao’s breathing quicken.

When she first saw the words ‘Young Lady,’ she thought it was from that Young Lady’s people.

Only later did she remember that when she attended the banquet with Chi Xiaocheng last time, someone claiming to be from her father came looking for her.

That man in the suit who said something about an engagement?

Su Tao fell into thought. “Could this Naiyue’s message be a trap?”

Another girl in a dress appeared beside Su Tao. She also stared at the content of the note and slowly spoke, “If you still have an impression of that person from last time, I can go check out the underground parking lot in advance for you.”

Seeing this, Su Tao’s face brightened with joy.

Right, she had forgotten that Xiao Hei could turn invisible.

She couldn’t go too far from Chi Xiaocheng’s side, but a range of three to four hundred meters was still fine.

Now, after waiting for so long, news from that so-called father had finally arrived!

As a potential source of support on her side, even though Su Tao’s impression of this father wasn’t great, now, if there was a chance, she had no choice but to seek this father’s help.

She just hoped he truly lived up to the name of War God.

Su Tao tightened her grip on the note again and asked Xiao Hei, “Then, should we show this to Xiaocheng or not?”

Xiao Hei shrugged. “Up to you.”

Clutching the note, Su Tao thought for a long time.

She slowly walked into the bathroom, tore the note into tiny pieces, and flushed it down the toilet.

With a whoosh, the water rushed down violently.

Returning to the room, Su Tao saw Chi Xiaocheng already lying in bed playing with her phone.

The entire room was dark, with only the phone screen providing some light.

Su Tao said helplessly, “Xiaocheng, you’re so close to it, and lying on your side too, be careful of getting nearsighted.”

“It’s all because you, Tao-Tao, won’t even allow the lights to be on. I’m almost getting used to this lifestyle like a savage.”

If she finished showering late at night, having to use a flashlight to wash up was really a bit spooky.

Studying biology knowledge was the same; without lights, exploring anywhere required slow, careful touching. It truly lacked a certain… ambiance.

Having lights on would be so much better, allowing one to see that fair, delicate skin.

Su Tao also helplessly reached out and patted Chi Xiaocheng’s head. “It’s all for safety, you know? Look, although our life is a bit tough, it’s always been very safe, hasn’t it?”

The nights being completely dark was, in a way, another form of a dark room.

Who knew, Chi Xiaocheng still snorted discontentedly. “With these pitch-black lights, you can’t see anything. Pink is forced to become black. Tao-Tao, you have no sense of romance at all!”

However, it was just complaining and grumbling.

Apart from not being able to go out to save her brother, she didn’t really have many other grievances.

Now, a full week had passed, her brother he…

Sigh, it’s in fate’s hands now.

At least after opening the new world, Tao-Tao’s emotions have stabilized.

“Speaking of which, doesn’t Tao-Tao usually check the situation in the house? Why did it take so much longer tonight?”

“Saw a cockroach, dealt with it quickly.”

Su Tao slipped into the blanket and hugged Chi Xiaocheng. “Speaking of which, Xiaocheng, tonight, could we…”

Chi Xiaocheng swatted away Su Tao’s wandering hands. “Aren’t you aware whether I’m still in my period or not?”

This Tao-Tao, before experiencing it, didn’t dare to do anything.

Now, after opening the door to the new world, it’s started for sure.

Savouring leads to craving!

“Forget it, let’s sleep.”

Closing their eyes to rest, it soon reached 4 a.m.

Su Tao’s alarm rang as usual.

Chi Xiaocheng was also startled awake and muttered, “Tao-Tao, why so early again?”

“You go back to sleep, I’m going to get the ingredients, otherwise we won’t have anything to eat next.”

She still used this reason.

Then she took the only mobile phone.

Locked the room from the outside, and changed into a black hooded sweatshirt.

Exited the door, locked it from outside.

Su Tao didn’t go directly to the underground parking lot. Instead, she waited for a while at the elevator entrance where there were no cameras.

“Xiao Hei, sorry to trouble you.”

“Okay.”

The elevator came down from the 13th floor above. When it reached the 5th floor, the door suddenly opened.

A delivery guy who was originally standing inside playing on his phone was startled to see Su Tao, hands in pockets, hair disheveled, wearing a hood obscuring her face, standing motionless outside.

Strange outfit.

Looked like a girl.

And so late, where was she going?

The elevator door remained open. The delivery guy saw Su Tao not moving at all and couldn’t help but ask quietly, “Um… aren’t you coming in?”

Su Tao remained silent, didn’t move.

But the delivery guy clearly heard a sound like high-heeled footsteps.

In this darkness.

“Tap… tap… tap…”

As if someone had entered the elevator.

The delivery guy swallowed hard, instinctively sucking in a cold breath.

Then, the tip of his nose caught a faint scent of roses, unique to girls.

The hand holding his phone trembled slightly.

Bros… seems like… seems like I’ve encountered something unbelievable.

But… it must be an illusion, right?

It’s so late, I must be really tired, haha.

The guy stared intently at the motionless Su Tao outside and watched the elevator door slowly close.

Only when the elevator door completely shut did he wipe the cold sweat from his forehead. “Really, scaring myself~

“I said so, it must be an illusion. How could there possibly be…”

Before he finished speaking.

The guy suddenly saw the originally grayed-out button for the basement level B1 light up abruptly.

“…”

“Holy crap, a ghost!!!”
