Mei Fang never expected that he would see Liu Xiaoyu again in this life.
When he chose to study at Jiangcheng Normal University No. 1 Middle School, he looked out at Baimei County from the top of the hill at Wuzu Temple and hummed the school song of Baimei No. 1 Middle School.
He thought that he had cut off all the three years of experience at Baimei No. 1 Middle School in his previous life.
Liu Xiaoyu was Mei Fang's deskmate for a long time in Baimei No. 1 Middle School in his previous life, and the two had slightly similar hobbies.
For example, anime of certain themes, certain types of games, certain types of novels, and songs by Allen and Xu Hao.
All in all, he and she always find similarities in some areas and can always find topics to talk about.
They became acquainted with each other because they had done many things together, including helping Mei Fang establish a game development club, and Liu Xiaoyu also helped him a lot at that time.
Although the two had a good relationship, it was only limited to good friends from beginning to end.
Mei Fang, who was still a gaming expert and a young man at the time, had almost never considered the relationship between a man and a woman, and always treated her as his good friend.
The opportunity that made Mei Fang change his mind in his previous life was the Top Ten Singers Competition in his second year of high school. Liu Xiaoyu was that classmate.
Mei Fang initially just encouraged her as a friend, but when she actually stepped onto the stage, put on a gorgeous dress and exquisite makeup, and showed off her outstanding singing skills.
Mei Fang also showed mixed emotions -
It turns out that she and I are not from the same world.
This complex emotion not only stimulated Mei Fang's desire to become better and shine on the stage, but also widened the distance between them.
She was very popular among boys because of her cheerful and lively personality, and her family was well-off. Her grades were always among the best in the class, all of which Mei Fang did not have in her previous life.
His poor pride didn't even allow him to congratulate her on that occasion like everyone else, and it was only the next day that he briefly mentioned her wonderful performance.
She said thank you softly, with the same smile as before.
But Mei Fang's mentality has undergone tremendous changes.
Later, as their seats were changed, neither of them continued to maintain this friendship, and Mei Fang himself deliberately distanced himself from this relationship, so the relationship between them gradually faded.
Liu Xiaoyu can become good friends with anyone she sits at the same table with, and with her wide range of interests, she can find something to talk about with anyone.
Obviously, Mei Fang is not special to her.
What does she mean to Mei Fang
Mei Fang, who has experienced many things in life, now occasionally looks back and thinks that it is hard to say that his stubbornness at that time did not contain feelings of secret love.
But high school students have so many secret crushes, and many boys have a crush on "every good-looking girl" in the class at the same time
Anyone who has done this knows it well.
What is this kind of secret love
It’s not mostly because of the halo effect formed by external things such as excellence and appearance, but not because of a real desire to understand what the other person wants.
But most of the time the result is a green and bitter unrequited love.
So Mei Fang doesn't quite understand the idea of licking the dog.
Without a two-way relationship, what is the meaning of pursuing...
It is better to have nothing than to have something bad.
In his previous life, Mei Fang went to college, and Liu Xiaoyu had no more contact with him, so he packed her up and put her into his high school memories.
In Mei Fang's mind, she was not even as impressive as Zhang Ming's. After all, Mei Fang still wanted to play games with him even after graduation.
All in all, no matter what happened to that friendship in the future, it is all in the past.
Mei Fang now has two good lovers who are even more worthy of her cherishment.
The existence of Yuanyuan and Youxi is exactly what he had dreamed of in the past, a relationship that grows over time and is a two-way relationship.
Mei Fang, who had already realized this, took the initiative to avoid Liu Xiaoyu after a brief shock when he first saw her.
But as for the panic when she called him later, it was due to another reason—
First of all, Mei Fang did some things after his rebirth that changed the original world line. Most of the changes were reasonable and expected.
For example, the birth of my younger sister Mei Ya was because Mei Fang made the family rich and my parents well fed and warm.
In order to bring a better future to his family, Mei Fang's father worked hard and was not let down in the end. He is now a deputy director.
Mei Fang changed the fate of Xia Yuan's family. They gave up running the hotel and switched to investment. Now they are even more prosperous.
Lin Youxi was redeemed because of Xia Yuan's survival and the company of Mei Fang's family, and finally did not become a cold and arrogant academic bully who was kept away from strangers;
Peng Xue was saved by Xia Yuan, and although she still had a fight with Huang Lian, she was able to avoid the fate of dropping out of school and working.
Guo Yun was not assigned to Huang Lian's class, and because of Mei Fang's protection, she was not excluded too much and spent a satisfactory junior high school life.
These are the destinies that have changed with Mei Fang's participation, and these changes are all within the scope of understanding.
But Mei Fang has never done anything that has anything to do with Liu Xiaoyu so far.
So what made her come to Jiangcheng Normal University No. 1 High School from Baimei No. 1 High School where she applied for admission in her previous life
Even though Mei Youyuan and the other two were admitted to Jiangcheng Normal University No. 1, not everyone can get in.
Although Liu Xiaoyu had good grades in her previous life, she was student number 14 when she entered the class and there was no way she could make the cut, unless she encountered some unexpected change that made her suddenly start to work hard.
Do you really believe in the illusory butterfly effect
Originally, Mei Fang didn't think of anything more outrageous.
But her last words, calling Mei Fang and asking if they had met somewhere before, made Mei Fang suddenly have a strange idea -
Could it be that Liu Xiaoyu is also a reborn person like me
Mei Fang quickly regained her composure after the panic:
"Really? I don't remember you. Did it happen recently? In Jiangcheng or Baimei County?"
Liu Xiaoyu frowned and thought for a while, "It should be when I was in Baimei County. I remember it was when I was quite young..."
"Well, that..."
Xia Yuan raised his hand and said, "It's not a good idea for us to stand here all the time. How about we go to the cafeteria and eat and talk while we eat?"
"That's right... Let's go."
Mei Fang patted Xia Yuan's shoulder and said, "Let's go to the cafeteria together!"
At this moment, Xia Yuan felt very heavy.
The look in Afang's eyes when he looked at Liu Xiaoyu was really strange.
He has never looked at me like this since I was a child...
Most of the windows in the cafeteria on the first floor of Jiangcheng Normal University No. 1 are student affordable cafeterias. The dishes served here are fixed every day, but each meal costs only 6 yuan.
The price is the same in small towns and students can afford it.
Mei Fang and Xia Yuan, two people who spend money lavishly, both eat at the 12 yuan window next door, where the dishes are more sumptuous and come with a fragrant braised chicken leg.
Lin Youxi didn't have a big appetite, so she always had the 6-yuan meal. She was used to it, and she could just pick up some food from Mei Fang anyway.
But Mei Fang didn't expect that Liu Xiaoyu also had a 6 yuan meal.
"Are you losing weight? Eating so little..."
"Ah? Yes, yes... I have a small appetite." Liu Xiaoyu smiled.
Mei Fang tried to find Liu Xiaoyu's flaws during the chat.
He hid a series of new generation hot words such as "mask", "Messi wins the championship", "YYDS" in the topic, but Liu Xiaoyu did not respond.
However, Xia Yuan and Lin Youxi were put under pressure by Mei Fang's obviously abnormal behavior, and everyone was not very happy during dinner.
From the current perspective, it is unlikely that Liu Xiaoyu is a reborn person. Even if he is reborn, there is no need for him to come to me specially.
Besides, she may not know whether I am a reborn person or not.
However, her change of fate is really too abnormal...
Who is her thread tied to
Mei Fang arrived at the end of the first evening self-study session with confusion, and then she met Xia Yuanlin Youxi.
The three of them seemed a little silent on the way, which made Mei Fang a little uncomfortable.
After arriving at the playground, he began to ask the two little ones the reason.
"Are you very tired today? You look listless."
"No, nothing! It's the first day, so I'm a little nervous."
Xia Yuan patted Mei Fang's shoulder, and then said to Youxi, "I'll take Ah Fang away first. Youxi, wait here."
Lin Youxi made an OK gesture and showed her watch to Xia Yuan to remind her to be punctual.
Mei Fang hugged Xia Yuan skillfully and let Xia Yuan completely buried in his arms, so that people running at night next door could not see Xia Yuan's face clearly.
"Just hold me and walk forward, just hold me and take a walk, Ah Fang, you have to be my eyes."
"OK OK."
Mei Fang accompanied Xia Yuan and slowly walked around the inner circle of the playground.
After spending some time in her childhood sweetheart's arms, Xia Yuan felt a little better.
"Ah Fang, do you like Liu Xiaoyu? If so, I, your childhood sweetheart, can... can... Forget it, I'll start over."
Xia Yuan couldn't be so generous as to say "I will help you chase her" because she had no habit of deceiving Mei Fang.
I clearly agreed to do whatever I want in front of Ah Fang...
Why are you so hesitant
Seeing that her voice was choked with sobs, Mei Fang immediately realized that his abnormal behavior towards Liu Xiaoyu had hurt Yuanyuan's heart, and he felt a little guilty.
So he gently touched Xia Yuan's forehead, their noses touching, and gently reproached:
"Idiot, how could I fall in love with someone I just met? Is your childhood sweetheart so superficial?"
"Then...how long would it take you to know a girl before you fall in love with her?" Xia Yuan raised his head and looked at Mei Fang.
Mei Fang thought for a moment and said, "At least... it has to be longer than you and Youxi have known each other and spent more time together!"
Mei Fang's last words finally made Xia Yuan feel relieved, and she hugged Mei Fang even tighter.
The two of them walked forward while hugging each other, and Xia Yuan continued to ask Mei Fang about his doubts.
"Then I feel like you're acting very abnormal today. The way you look at her is obviously different."
Xia Yuan muttered, "We have known each other for ten years, but you have never looked at me like this..."
"Then how did I look at you? From the side, from the side, from above? We have known each other for such a long time, I am sure you have seen all the ways I look at you. You are only saying this because you are jealous."
"But it's just very special... It's a girl's intuition."
Xia Yuan put his hand on Mei Fang's collar and said, "If you have any troubles, you should tell me and Youxi. If you hide them to yourself, I will only think that you are thinking about other girls."
"Why would I need to think about other girls? My little childhood sweetheart is so cute..."
Mei Fang hugged Xia Yuan and carried her around for several circles.
"Stop playing, stop playing. I feel dizzy."
Xia Yuan pinched Mei Fang's face to make him stop, "It's good enough that you know I'm cute."
Mei Fang and Xia Yuan were having a great time when they were suddenly shocked by a coughing sound.
It turned out that the visitor was Lin Youxi. She tapped the panel of her watch and said expressionlessly:
"It's one minute overtime. I'll come first next time and make up for it."
"S-Sorry..."
Xia Yuan mumbled an apology to Lin Youxi, then waved goodbye to Mei Fang.
"… "
Before Mei Fang could think of what to say to Lin Youxi, Lin Youxi turned her back to Mei Fang.
Youxi is not as proactive as Yuanyuan when it comes to being intimate, but she always gives Mei Fang a sense of timing that she can understand at a glance. Mei Fang gently hugs her from behind, and she takes the opportunity to move closer to Mei Fang's arms.
And then, nothing happened.
"You... don't want to ask me something?"
Lin Youxi shook her head. "Yuanyuan should have asked all the questions she should have asked. Since she is satisfied with your answer, that's enough."
"Then you are being a bit cunning, aren't you? You let Yuanyuan come first, let Yuanyuan spend time asking questions first, and you just don't ask directly..."
Lin Youxi ignored him and just leaned on Mei Fang as a backrest for a while. The two of them were tired, so Lin Youxi suggested sitting down and continuing to lean on her.
Lin Youxi asked Mei Fang to sit cross-legged, and she sat in his arms with her back leaning against him.
Many couples nearby were looking up at the moon in a similar posture, but Lin Youxi just closed his eyes, as if he was really taking a nap.
Mei Fang was hugging Lin Youxi when Xia Yuan suddenly appeared at the side. Mei Fang was about to say something but Xia Yuan quickly waved his hand to signal Mei Fang to speak in a low voice, indicating that he would not disturb him.
It was so lonely for her to wait alone in the playground.
She also sat down cross-legged and leaned against Mei Fang's back. She felt at ease as long as she touched Mei Fang.
Of course, she gradually became more and more demanding and even put Mei Fang's hand in her arms and squeezed her.
The kissing couple who had been standing next to each other for 100 years were shocked.
While being intimate with Xiao Qingmei, Mei Fang gradually replenished his energy and calmed down.
He finally remembered some clues he had discovered while spending time with Liu Xiaoyu in the afternoon:
Judging from Liu Xiaoyu’s dressing style and eating habits, she is definitely not at the level of the rich girls he knew in his previous life.
Mei Fang vaguely remembered that Liu Xiaoyu's family was richer than Yuanyuan's family. She didn't know why they had fallen to this point.
This also fits with what was said before, that Liu Xiaoyu's family encountered misfortune, so he worked hard to become a better person.
Well, if we knew how Liu Xiaoyu's family fell into poverty, perhaps we could understand the mystery of her changing fate.
So, after the pasting was over, Mei Fang began to make up stories to her childhood sweethearts, explaining the reason for today's abnormal behavior.
"Actually, I did know Liu Xiaoyu before... Mainly Liu Xiaoyu's father, but that was when I was in elementary school."
"Her father brought Liu Xiaoyu to our house for dinner before. I remember that their family was very rich at that time. They were real estate owners. I don't know why their family fell into decline..."
Yuanyuan was surprised and asked, "Is that so?"
Lin Youxi quickly grasped the blind spot of the problem, "Her father is a real estate boss, and Uncle Mei works at the Land Bureau... Isn't it a bit inappropriate for your two families to have dinner together?"
"I, I don't know either."
Mei Fang scratched his head. "But my father should be honest and upright and would not do such a thing. Otherwise, how could he still be so stingy now..."
"But I am still worried. What if her father was arrested and the family fell into poverty? Then wouldn't my father also be..."
A big stone in Xia Yuan's heart fell to the ground.
No wonder Ah Fang cares so much about Liu Xiaoyu... He must be worried that Uncle Mei is related to some case and is going to be double-killed, right
"Well, anyway, let's ask her out for dinner when we have time and try to talk about this topic. I don't know if she's willing to talk about it, and whether we're being too abrupt."
Mei Fang shook his head. "Try to be more tactful. You are very good at the art of words."
Xia Yuan bowed his head and prayed silently, "I hope it has nothing to do with Uncle Mei. Uncle Mei is a good man, I don't want him to be arrested. Xiaoya is too pitiful to be without a father."
Mei Fang: "You'd better pray for me too. If Liu Xiaoyu's father is really in trouble, I will have to persuade our Uncle Mei to surrender as soon as possible."
"Don't curse Uncle Mei like that! You are not a good son..."
After spending some time together, Xia Yuanlin Youxi and Liu Xiaoyu became much more familiar with each other, and Liu Xiaoyu finally mentioned his family's past experiences during a casual chat at lunch.
After all, it had been a long time since it happened, and Liu Xiaoyu was quite relaxed and not as shy as everyone worried.
"It's like this. My family was actually quite wealthy when I was in elementary school."
"But my father later took over a very famous hotel, you should have heard of it... A few months after the hotel was sold to our family, the road was under construction."
"The hotel that my family bought collapsed very quickly. After my father sold off the rest of the family's businesses, he still had a huge debt..."
Liu Xiaoyu rubbed his eyes and said, "So I thought, if I study harder and get into a good university, I can start working earlier and help my family pay off the debt."
Liu Xiaoyu thought for a moment, "Oh, yes, I remember now! The name of the hotel is 'Bai Mei Ren Jia'."
Xia Yuan was about to start yelling halfway through the journey, but it was Mei Fang and Lin Youxi who stopped her.
"What's wrong? Yuanyuan?"
"No, nothing! She was probably about to sneeze, let's hold her down."
Mei Fang showed a sad expression.
"Really, it was a very unfortunate experience..."
"My deep sympathy." Lin Youxi replied.
At this moment, the two little Mei Youyuan kids all had dark lines on their faces. Even a newborn like Mei Fang didn't know how to comfort her.
Today's 5000 yards is done!
