Mei Fang had planned to be with Yuanyuan Youxi forever as early as when she moved to a new house in the fourth grade. However, in the context of modern urban life, Mei Fang's ambition faced many obstacles.
In addition to well-known objective factors (social opinion, family pressure, morality and rule of law), the thoughts of the two subjects themselves are also crucial.
First of all, Lin Youxi and Xia Yuan, whom Mei Fang knew, were both girls with high ambitions. It was impossible for either of them to quietly withdraw or be willing to be a mistress or lover.
Even Youxi, who used to be Yuanyuan's little follower and was thought to be the one giving in in relationships, now clearly has no intention of giving up on herself.
When she was a child, she once told Mei Fang that she would give everything to Yuanyuan.
However, after Lin's father remarried and crawled into her bed that year, Mei Fang realized that Youxi had changed her mind.
Not to mention that she has been attacking me recently.
In general, whether he can treat everyone equally has become the most critical point for him to achieve his goal.
Therefore, Mei Fang's attitude towards Yuanyuan Youxi has always been to gradually deepen the ties between them while not expressing any preference for them.
Of course, most of the events that happened here were not deliberately designed by Mei Fang. He just appeared in the right place at the right time.
As for whether it will make people feel fickle-
Please! We are childhood sweethearts! It is normal for childhood sweethearts to be so close!
Hey, don’t you think so
That may be because you don’t have a childhood sweetheart, or your childhood sweetheart has a bad personality
Anyway, Yuanyuan Youxi and I have such a good relationship...
If the treatment is not equal, the one who receives less care will feel that he or she is not the first in his or her heart, but ranks behind the other person.
Once Mei Fang has an order of priority in his eyes, the second person will always be in a passive or third-party mentality emotionally.
Therefore, Mei Fang has always treated the two equally. Even when he was alone with the two of them, he never said anything like he liked Yuanyuan the most or Youxi the most.
Of course, this is also because Youxi and Yuanyuan are indeed outstanding and cute enough, so Mei Fang can only understand it as the blessing of rebirth.
Mei Fang also hopes that Xia Yuan and Lin Youxi can have their own stage, rather than being his vassals.
Because only in this way will they feel that they will be relied on by Mei Fang, and only in this way will they feel that each other is excellent, instead of choosing to withdraw silently just because they think she is better than me.
The period when Xia Yuan suffered greatly from physics in junior high school was the most dangerous period.
At that time, Yuanyuan might very well feel that she could not keep up with Xi Meifang and gradually give up on herself. Fortunately, Meifang finally found a new direction for the three of them to work together.
In addition, Yuanyuan and Youxi have always had a good and close relationship, which is also a prerequisite for Mei Fang to be able to keep things balanced.
If two people are not familiar with each other, they can only learn from some scumbags who move from one south to the other or from one floor to the next.
That is not something Mei Fang can do. If that were the case, he would rather choose one of the two.
There is a huge and unforgivable deception in the relationship, and no matter how you claim that you truly love each other, it will seem very hypocritical.
In short, treating everyone equally is of utmost importance. Mei Fang has been with the two little ones for 10 years and has a very deep understanding of them. Yuanyuan's purpose and intention are completely under Mei Fang's control.
Therefore, when faced with such a question from Yuanyuan, if Mei Fang was not careful and gave an answer that was more inclined to one side, it would inevitably lay the groundwork for the tragedy that might come in the future.
So Mei Fang took a deep breath and smiled, "I like good-looking things."
"You are talking nonsense! Is there anyone who particularly likes ugly things?"
Xia Yuan knocked on Mei Fang's head, "Also, you can't say good figures. If you want to say it, you can only say tall or petite."
"Ahem, I was just joking. I'm not such a superficial person."
Mei Fang smiled slightly and said, "I prefer girls who I can talk to and have a common language with."
"Hmm... it's a bit abstract!"
"Because it is indeed a very abstract concept, when we are together, we feel more at ease and don't feel uncomfortable. We can be our true selves as we please."
Xia Yuan lowered his head and made a thoughtful expression. Mei Fang continued to talk to him:
"If you want me to give you an example, it's when I'm with you and Youxi that I feel this way."
"Hmm..."
Xia Yuan received an answer from Mei Fang that was almost a confession in some sense, and he was immediately moved. He lowered his head and smiled unconsciously.
She pushed Mei Fang shyly and said, "We must be very close, after all, we are childhood sweethearts."
But... I still haven't said who I prefer to be with.
Want to ask
But if you ask, isn't that equivalent to forcing Afang to make a choice
No matter whether I win or lose in the end, will Youxi think that I am breaking the agreement with her by doing this and hate me for the rest of her life
It’s true that I like Ah Fang very much, but if I lose Youxi in this way, I—
Seeing Xia Yuan pouting her lips as if she was about to cry, Mei Fang reached out and gently pinched Xia Yuan's cheek.
"What, what's the matter?"
"You seem a little absent-minded. Are you worried that you'll mess up your performance at the summer camp graduation party?"
"No, how could it be possible..."
Xia Yuan held the guitar and tried to put on a proud expression, "I am the super awesome Yuan Yuan!"
"Alright, alright, we know you're amazing. Youxi and I will always support you. Keep practicing!"
"Wait a minute, wait a minute, today's Afang's super energy has not been replenished yet!"
As Xia Yuan said this, he put down his guitar and stood up. Mei Fang was about to stand up as well, but Xia Yuan suddenly pulled Mei Fang to sit down.
"Wait wait wait, let's change our posture today, um... just sit like this."
"Hey, we're outside the neighborhood! It's not good to be seen by others, right?"
"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter, no one knows us..."
As Xia Yuan spoke, he sat astride Mei Fang and hugged her close to him.
cough…
Mei Fang's body began to tremble slightly again.
In addition to the ability to balance the situation, the ability to remain calm also requires years of training and development.
While Xia Yuan and Mei Fang were being affectionate, he felt a surge of guilt towards Youxi.
We clearly agreed to let Afang make his own choice, but I always sneaked away without Youxi's knowledge and almost made a big mistake.
Would it be a bit too mean of me to do this
Since they started living together, Xia Yuan and Lin Youxi now share a room.
They had often slept together in elementary school and even junior high school, so it was a common occurrence for these childhood sweethearts and they did not specifically go into detail.
However, apart from the first few days of living together after high school which were very novel and exciting, things have been quite dull between us in recent times.
Of course, there is the dual pressure of being busy with study and work, but Xia Yuan is very clear where more factors come from.
It was almost 10 o'clock when Lin Youxi finished her work that night. After taking a shower and blowing her hair, she walked into the house and saw Xia Yuan staring in the direction of the door where she appeared.
"Yuanyuan, what are you thinking about?"
"Nothing, nothing!" Xia Yuan patted the bed sheet and smiled at Lin Youxi, "Go to bed!"
Before Lin Youxi got into bed, she sneezed lightly.
Xia Yuan quickly asked with concern, "Is the air conditioning a bit cold?"
"No, this is an old habit of mine, you know that." Lin Youxi smiled slightly.
"But your rhinitis has improved a lot compared to before. I rarely see you having a runny nose now."
"Well... it's fine if it happens naturally and without any reason."
"I hope you don't need surgery. I heard that surgery can't cure this."
"That's right... so in the end there was no—"
Lin Youxi was about to say something else when Xia Yuan suddenly came over and put his hand on her belly and started rubbing it.
"Suddenly... what is this for?"
Lin Youxi simply expressed her doubts, but she had always touched people casually, so she didn't feel disgusted.
"I really envy you for having such a great figure, Youxi. Your belly is smooth and you don't have any extra fat at all."
Xia Yuan muttered, "I can't do it anymore. Although it's fine when I stand, I have a stomachache when I sit down..."
"Really? Youxi, where did you hear that from?!"
"I read it in a book. Yue Xinyi lent me a novel."
Lin Youxi pointed to a bookshelf on one side and said, "I still have a few books left. She said she would leave them for me as a souvenir. You can read them next time if you want. They are quite interesting."
"Yeah, I'll watch it when I have time!"
Xia Yuan said as he hugged Lin Youxi again, whispering in her ear like a girlfriend:
"By the way, after the final exam, do you want to go shopping downtown together?"
"Hmm... OK." Lin Youxi thought for a moment, "What do you two mean by not inviting Ah Fang to join us?"
Xia Yuan pouted and shook her head, "No, no, it's just the two of us! We're mainly going to buy clothes so don't call him."
"Just think about it, when he went shopping with us before, he never helped us choose clothes when it came to buying clothes. He would always find a place to sit and sleep. It was so boring."
"Indeed... And it's not good to always ask him to carry things, so let him rest for a day..."
"Yes, yes. After all, he has been working very hard during this period."
Xia Yuan thought about how she had been sneaking around lately and always asking Mei Fang to be close to her, and her face turned red because she felt guilty.
"Is that so..."
Lin Youxi also thought about the recent times when she had been sneaking around and always teasing Mei Fang, and her face turned red because of guilty conscience.
Both of them felt guilty because of the time they had been sneaking around, and they hugged each other tighter.
"Youxi, I'd better turn off the air conditioner. Your hands and legs are too cold. You're almost freezing me to death."
"Yeah... OK."
There is no need to elaborate on the schedule for the summer camp. It is nothing more than going to school, studying, and doing homework day after day.
Because the summer camp of Jiangcheng Normal University No. 1 High School mainly recruits students from special counties to participate, the purpose is to synchronize the course knowledge progress learned by each student in junior high school, and they basically study the main subject content before the final examination.
The few times that could be considered summer camp activities were the movie watching activities on Friday nights.
I originally thought that they would play patriotic educational films like those in my hometown, but Jiangcheng Normal University No. 1 High School boldly screened the Lighthouse Country movie "Heartbeat" which was released last year.
This film tells a story about a boy and girl living next door. It expresses thoughts on human growth through the "war" between boys and girls during childhood and youth.
Simply put, it happens to be a youth movie about childhood sweethearts, and the story is quite innocent and healing.
During the movie, Xia Yuan also took Lin Youxi to quietly find Mei Fang. The three of them moved their stools and secretly ran to the back to watch the movie together, with Xiang Bingbing covering for them.
After that was a busy week of preparation, and everyone faced the most important class placement test of the summer camp.
However, this exam is not very important to the three little ones, and everyone just participates according to their normal level of ability.
On the third night after the class placement test, the graduation party for the 2011 summer camp training for county students of Jiangcheng Normal University No. 1 Affiliated High School was officially held in the auditorium of Jiangcheng Normal University No. 1 Affiliated High School.
The evening party itself was mainly hosted by the 2010 seniors who were about to enter their second year of high school. They came on stage in gorgeous and beautiful dresses and reported various colorful programs to everyone in a professional tone.
What was somewhat unexpected to Mei Fang was that the programs for this graduation party were actually almost entirely prepared by seniors from the class of 2010.
But if you think about it carefully, it is understandable. Those who came from special counties are not familiar with each other and are busy preparing for the final class placement examination.
In fact, there are not many contestants who can show their personal talents like Xia Yuan.
So in the rehearsals in the next few days, after seeing the professional and gorgeous performances of his predecessors, Xia Yuan seemed a little nervous for a while, but fortunately the final effect was quite good.
However, when it was almost Xia Yuan's turn to perform on stage, Xia Yuan, who had already dressed up, left the dressing room again.
She found Mei Fang and Lin Youxi, who had just cheered for her, in the crowd outside.
At this moment, Xia Yuan has been dressed up. She is wearing a long tie shirt that is similar to the style of the Sakura Country sailor uniform, and white stockings and red shoes under her plaid skirt.
It is a charming gesture that Mei Fang can't forget.
She grabbed Mei Fang's hand, and under her shining eye shadow, there was a look of aggrievedness. Under her tightly pursed bright red lips, it was obvious that she was expecting more encouragement.
Ah this... Do you want it again at this time
Before Mei Fang could make up his mind, Lin Youxi pushed Mei Fang from behind.
"Go quickly, I'll cover you."
So Mei Fang no longer hesitated and pulled Xia Yuan to the dark corner behind the stage and hugged her.
"It's okay... This is your original work, and you've been practicing for so long. Youxi and I have witnessed your talent together. It's definitely not worse than theirs. Keep going."
Xia Yuan didn't say anything, but just hugged Mei Fang tightly for a long time before letting go.
After she returned to her original position, she stayed close to Lin Youxi for a while before returning to the dressing room to wait for entry. Hugging between girls never caused any criticism.
The two of them watched Xia Yuan enter the venue, and a big stone in their hearts finally fell to the ground.
Mei Fang and Lin Youxi stood in the front row of the auditorium waiting for Yuanyuan to appear.
"Yes, is there still battery in the camera?"
"I didn't shoot much, I was just waiting for Yuanyuan to come on stage to record the video."
The digital camera in Lin Youxi's hand is the 2011 top-of-the-line mirrorless camera Olympus E-P3. Of course, this was also bought for her by Mei Fang.
She was not aware of Mei Fang's wasteful behavior of buying things at high prices, but after he gave it to her, she still studied the photography techniques seriously for a period of time.
"Let's just record Yuanyuan's part and upload it to Station C."
"Would you like to give Yuanyuan the best recommendation exposure? I can arrange it in advance."
"Not for now," Mei Fang smiled at You Xi, "You know, Yuan Yuan doesn't like cheating. At most, we can increase the weighting on the "Whatever You Like" column..."
Mei Fang was talking. Lin Youxi stared at Mei Fang for a while, then took out a tissue from his pocket, moved towards Mei Fang and wiped his neck a few times.
Mei Fang didn't understand what he was saying, so Lin Youxi showed him the lip print on the tissue paper with no expression on her face.
"!!!"
Oops, there is a crisis in carrying water!
Mei Fang scratched his head pretending to be very shy and said, "Hey, I was just talking to Yuanyuan and didn't pay attention to this. I think I touched it accidentally-"
At this moment, Lin Youxi suddenly did a playful move that she had loved since childhood. She leaned close to Mei Fang's ear and whispered softly:
"Since Yuanyuan can do it... then can I do it too?"
"Ah... that... is a bit of a weird idea... haha... it's not impossible..."
After a period of vague terminology, Mei Fang finally agreed to Lin Youxi's opinion.
No matter how skilled the master of balancing the water is, he always has to face this sad fact:
That is, most of the time you can only add water to make the water level. If you spill water without reason, it will only make the girls angry and run away.
If you keep adding water like this, sooner or later you will have to face the situation where the water is full and about to overflow.
What the outcome will be at that time depends on whether I have really been able to keep things fair in this long race of adding water and carrying water.
"What is youth? What does youth taste like?"
“Youth is full of challenges, imagination and passion!”
"This next performer is really amazing because she's a new student from summer camp!"
"She will present us with a charming youth storm through her talent and sweat!"
"Please enjoy the original songs and guitar solos performed by Xia Yuan from Class 6 of the summer camp - "In That Not-so-Distant Place" and "Memories of Lanshan"!"
Amidst warm applause, Xia Yuan, holding her beloved guitar, slowly walked from behind the curtain to the front stage.
After bowing gently to everyone, she looked at Mei Fang and Lin Youxi waving at her below the stage.
She smiled brightly and began her first stage performance at Jiangcheng Normal University No. 1 High School.
Although I haven't been feeling well these days, my condition is actually pretty good. Today's chapter is full of useful information, and it has 5,000 words.
