Only After I Was Reborn Did I Realize That I Had Childhood Sweethearts

Chapter 69: The Shipper Girl

Mei Fangs homeroom teacher, Li Shibing, is a teacher who enjoys organizing activities. After the start of the school year, he divided the entire class into 9 study groups, with about 8 students in each group. He then asked the group leaders and members to come up with names for their groups in order to enhance the collective sense of honor.

Mei Fangs group had 2 boys and 6 girls, including the class representative of the Chinese class, Yue Xinyi, and the class monitor, Lin Youxi. These two students had a lot of influence on the class. Mei Fang didnt have any objection to their group name, and his deskmate, Wang Jiachang, was rather reserved, so the girls took charge of naming the group.

They named Mei Fangs group Yue Xi. As for the origin of the name, there is no need for further explanation:

There are trees on the mountains and there are branches on the tree, I adore you, oh! You do not know.

Their explanation for the name Yue Xi was that they were happy and contented, expressing their desire to learn from the class monitor, Lin Youxi. Li Shibing approved it on the spot.

Lin Youxi stood out among the girls with her tall stature and her naturally graceful and fair facial features, giving off an elegant feeling. Her outstanding performance during the class monitor election also won the admiration of many.

In her usual demeanor, Lin Youxi had a studious and serious image, making her very popular among the girls in the class. They regarded her as an older sister figure and the object of their admiration.

However, all of this was merely an illusion on the surface. Very few students in the class have seen the real Lin Youxi.

Except for a few people, only Yue Xinyi had a glimpse of the real Lin Youxi.

Yue Xinyi, the class representative of the Chinese class, was an avid fan of online novels. To be precise, she had a deep affection for sweet romance stories involving childhood friends.

She and Lin Youxi were classmates in elementary school, but they hardly spoke to each other.

However, since they sat close to each other at that time, Yue Xinyi always knew that Lin Youxi had two close friends: a girl named Xia Yuan and a boy whose identity she recently confirmed as Mei Fang.

They have always been childhood friends, and now they are in the same class again

During the interaction between Mei Fang and Lin Youxi in the class monitor election, Lin Youxi showed an unprecedented sweet smile after reading a note from him.

Yue Xinyi was there when it happened!

She wasnt merely a background character. She has always been paying attention!

But in order to not disrupt the atmosphere or disturb others, she just held back her smile and didnt make a sound.

Lin Youxi trusted her more and was willing to sit with her. So, she had already foreseen her happy future.

How long do I have to wait within these three years? Hahaha!

Seeing Yue Xinyi, whos usually quiet and introverted, giggling uncontrollably in her seat, Lin Youxi was quite puzzled.

It wasnt until one day during break time that Yue Xinyi couldnt resist asking Lin Youxi, who was doing homework.

By the way, Lin Youxi, you knew Mei Fang since kindergarten, but you were separated in elementary school. Why have you still been playing together all this time?

Lin Youxi was a bit confused. Why are you asking about this?

Just pure curiosity. Yue Xinyi lied, Actually, when I was very young, I also had a childhood friend, but he transferred to another school and we lost contact.

You didnt try to make him stay?

Seeing Lin Youxi actively asking, Yue Xinyi felt secretly delighted. She sighed and shook her head, I was so young at that time, I never thought about trying to make him stay. We were just following the adults.

Hmm

Seeing Lin Youxis expression change slightly, Yue Xinyi continued to ask, Based on your expression, have you experienced something similar between you two?

Sort of

Lin Youxi actually didnt like sharing details about her and her childhood friends with others. She would rather talk to Mei Fang and Xia Yuan instead.

But this matter was indeed a happy memory for Lin Youxi, so she couldnt help but share more.

When Mei Fangs family was going to move, Yuan Yuan and I tried to persuade Mei Fangs family In the end, they decided to stay.

Ooooh!

Yue Xinyi expressed her excitement, You were so young at that time, yet you were able to do something like that. Thats really amazing!

It was mainly Ah FangMei Fang who came up with a good solution.

Wait, what did you call Mei Fang just now?

Lin Youxi frowned, Mei Fang, nothing special.

Did you just call him Ah Fang? I heard it. Do you use different names for Mei Fang at school and at home? Thats so sweet!!!

Lin Youxi gave Yue Xinyi a disgusted look, and Yue Xinyi immediately restrained herself.

Sorry, sorry Its your secret, I wont ask anymore. I swear I wont tell anyone!

Lets stop talking about this for now I dont want Lin Youxi to dislike me.

However, that girl Xia Yuan from the next class seems to have a good relationship with Mei Fang From their usual interactions, it seems like Xia Yuan is even closer to Mei Fang than Lin Youxi.

So, what does this scumbag Mei Fang really think

Yue Xinyi stared boredly at Mei Fangs empty seat in front.

Mei Fang rarely talks to Lin Youxi in class because he can sense that she doesnt want their relationship to draw too much attention.

Besides, since a long time ago, Lin Youxi only acted playful when they were alone together, and Mei Fang didnt want to make her uncomfortable. Instead, he would always chat with Zhang Ming after class, even when Zhang Ming was studying seriously.

Why are you studying after class? What a waste of time. Arent you going to talk to me about Pao Pao Kart Rider?

You did well on the mid-term exam, so dont bother me. Zhang Ming glared at Mei Fang with annoyance.

You also got 9th place in the class, isnt that good enough? Mei Fang said.

Hey, 9th place is still not bad, okay?

Zhang Ming looked indignant, Ive never been outside the class top 5 in my elementary school!

So you used to be such a top student, my apologies.

Mei Fang patted Zhang Mings shoulder and said, Speaking of which, how does it feel to be a group leader recently?

Its alright just collecting assignments, nothing else.

Last weeks blackboard newspaper was done by your team, right? The drawings were pretty good.

Zhang Ming nodded, We came on Saturday to make that. You dont know how much time we spent.

But the result is pretty good how did you divide the work? You didnt do everything, did you?

How is that possible? Lu Xueqing did the writing, Li Dannin handled the layout, and as for the floral patterns, I drew them.

Youre amazing, I didnt expect you to have a talent for drawing!

Zhang Ming sheepishly scratched his nose, They thought I drew better, so I took care of it

Mei Fang smiled and said, It feels great to work together as a team, right? Shouldnt you thank me for giving you the opportunity to become a group leader?

Theres not much of a difference, really. Id have to do these things even if I werent the group leader

Theres definitely a difference. If you werent the group leader, you probably wouldnt have been eager to show your skills, would you?

As soon as Mei Fang finished speaking, Lu Xueqing, a girl sitting behind Zhang Ming, tugged at his clothes.

Group leader, group leader, how do I solve this problem? Can you teach me?

Um, about this problem

Zhang Ming was about to teach Lu Xueqing properly when his female deskmate, Li Danning, became unhappy. Group Leader Zhang! When I asked you earlier, you said youd teach me later. Why did you start teaching Lu Xueqing as soon as she asked, huh?

I I was a bit busy earlier how about you listen together now?

So Im just an afterthought to you? Were deskmates, you know!?

Zhang Ming was surrounded by eager female students, and Mei Fang looked at him with mixed emotions.

I didnt expect this guy to be so popular with girls in middle school

Why did he become a loner who only plays games and doesnt socialize much in high school?

Mei Fang felt that hes no longer needed here and found himself without much room to join the conversation. So, he leisurely walked back to his own seat.

Just as he was about to sit down, Lin Youxi poked Mei Fangs waist with a pen, startling him.

Im telling you, stop poking me there all the time.

While Mei Fang was complaining, Lin Youxi continued talking about her own matters:

Do you have time this weekend?

I usually stay at home. Dont you come whenever you want? Why are you asking specifically?

Oh! Theres new gossip!

Yue Xinyi, who smelled the sweet scent of gossip, pursed her lip and lowered her head. She was continuously drawing random wavy lines on a draft paper and quietly listened.

Lin Youxi continued, If youre not busy, can you accompany me to go shopping?

Shopping?

Yes I told you earlier this year that I want to save money to buy something, right? Do you remember?

Lin Youxi flicked her hair, Ive saved up enough money now.
