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

Chapter 19: Boys' hands are indeed much bigger

Views:

Du Zihan naturally had his reasons for accepting Mei Fang's challenge so readily and arrogantly.

He has been skating in this cultural square for several months and is familiar with the kids who play roller skating nearby. This is the first time he has seen Mei Fang and the others.

It goes without saying that Lin Youxi showed great strength, and Xia Yuan was wearing all this equipment, and it was obvious that he had only been playing for a short time.

Mei Fang might be better. Even though he is a sissy, he is a boy after all. It is impossible for his level to be much higher when skating with these two women.

What's more, today he was wearing the new roller skates his family bought. It was so fun to skate, and he felt his strength had greatly improved!

Du Zihan was often humiliated by Mei Fang when he was in kindergarten. Although it took a long time for him to take revenge, the book says, "It is never too late for a gentleman to take revenge." Today is the day to make Mei Fang, that sissy who plays with girls, pay the price!

"The rules of the competition are very simple. One round trip is to skate from one end of the square to the other and back again. We skate two round trips in total. The one who finishes first wins."

“Are there any restrictions on equipment?”

"If you don't have this, what else can you do?"

"no problem."

So Mei Fang called Xia Yuan over, pointed at her roller skates and said, "Lend me your roller skates."

Xia Yuan blushed and said, "Mei Fang, mine is inline skates, not as stable as double-row skates. If you haven't used it before, you'll lose your balance easily..."

"I know, it's okay... but I'm more comfortable with inline skating."

"Um… "

Xia Yuan hesitated for a while, "I can lend it to you, but you have to turn around and wait for me to change my shoes."

"… ah?"

Xia Yuan turned Mei Fang over so that Lin Youxi could watch her and prevent him from peeking. Then she quickly took off her shoes, revealing pink cartoon socks with Cardcaptor Sakura-themed wing elements, and quickly changed into white sneakers so that Mei Fang could change her equipment.

"Mei Fang, I know you want to stand up for me, but there's no need for us to get into a fight with Du Zihan, right?"

Lin Youxi squatted down and tried to dissuade Mei Fang who was putting on her shoes, "This is so childish."

"Are you saying this because you're afraid I'll lose?"

"That's not what I meant... But even if I win against Du Zihan, wouldn't it be embarrassing?"

Mei Fang thought about it, then nodded and said, "That makes sense."

"Hey, are you guys still going to compete?" Du Zihan said angrily, impatiently, "Stop dithering. Just give in if you're afraid of losing!"

“Here it comes!”

Mei Fang stood up with the help of Xia Yuan and Lin Youxi, "I've changed my shoes."

Du Zihan looked at the pink inline skates that Mei Fang was wearing with disdain, "You are indeed a sissy, wearing girls' shoes, and inline skates at that. There is no difference in speed between inline skates and double skates, and inline skates are more likely to cause falls, can you handle it?"

"Then let's take a look?"

Mei Fang smiled slightly, and her frivolous gaze made Du Zihan even more unhappy.

This guy... has been like this since a long time ago... pretending to be an adult!

See how I kill him this time!

Du Zihan and Mei Fang stood on the same starting line. Both of them bent their bodies, but Du Zihan bent more.

Seeing that someone was planning to compete here, some children who were playing nearby consciously made way and stopped on both sides to watch.

"It's time to get ready... Three, two, one!"

As Xia Yuan fell, Du Zihan took the lead and rushed out. Mei Fang's reaction seemed a little slow, and he fell behind because of his early start.

Hehe! I know I am the strongest!

Du Zihan tried his best to slide forward, swinging his arms to the maximum extent.

He closed his eyes, felt the dancing of the wind, and listened to the cheers that came one after another, as if he had become the most handsome guy in the Cultural Square, and the audience in the square were admiring his superb roller skating skills.

Until—Mei Fang greeted him.

Du Zihan saw Mei Fang greeting him from the opposite direction—

He he he he, he is actually sliding backwards!

Forget about skating backwards, he could actually skate backwards with some effort; but Mei Fang didn't do the twisting and turning gourd-like skate like he usually did. Instead, he skated very smoothly in a straight line and in a serpentine shape, and while constantly switching back and forth, he directly surpassed Du Zihan!

Mei Fang turned out to be a hidden roller skating expert!

Faced with such a technical dimensionality reduction attack, even someone as tough as Du Zihan no longer had any reason to continue insisting.

When Mei Fang finished skating and was on his way back, Du Zihan stopped chasing after him after reaching the end, but stood there thinking for a while.

He chose to continue forward and quickly escape from the square.

It is never too late for a gentleman to take revenge!

Mei Fang, you win today, but I will study hard and practice diligently, and one day, I will make you call me daddy!

But don’t come to the Cultural Square for the time being, it’s really embarrassing…

When Mei Fang was about to reach the finish line, he was reminded by Xia Yuan and Lin Youxi. Looking back, he found that Du Zihan had already found his escape route.

Hey, he hasn’t apologized to Lin Youxi yet

"Mei Fang, Mei Fang, you are so amazing! How long have you been learning this? You even hid it from me. You are such an unkind person!"

Mei Fang felt uneasy being surrounded by this group of elementary school students, and could only make up an excuse that his relative's brother had taught him.

After all, he had been a member of the university roller skating club in his previous life, and that kind of muscle memory was brought over with his rebirth. Even if he hadn't played roller skating for a long time, it would not be difficult for him to deal with these elementary school students who were just starting to learn.

The group was sweating profusely while skiing at the Cultural Square, and only remembered that it was time to go home for dinner after dusk.

The three of them bought ice cream at a street store, and under the setting sun, they ate the ice cream while chatting about the interesting things that happened that day.

Seeing that Xia Yuan was having trouble keeping up with the pace while carrying his shoes, Mei Fang took the initiative to reach out.

"Shall I help you carry it?"

"It's okay, I can do it myself."

"Why are you being polite?"

Mei Fang took the bag and slightly touched Xia Yuan's fingers during the argument. As a result, Xia Yuan subconsciously retracted his hand and his shoes fell to the ground.

Seeing this scene, Lin Youxi couldn't help but laughed:

"Xia Yuan used to like holding hands the most, but now she feels embarrassed?"

Faced with Lin Youxi's teasing, Xia Yuan did not respond directly, but turned his head away.

"Homework... It's time to go back and do my homework. I'll go to your house to do my homework today! Is Lin Youxi coming?"

"I don't need it. You guys write it."

Lin Youxi waved her hand and smiled, "I finished my holiday homework at school a long time ago."

Mei Fang returned home and found no one was there except for a note left by his mother, saying that the three of them had gone out to eat and she would bring food back to him later.

Mei Fang, feeling that his status was no longer there, took a shower. After a while, Xia Yuan, who had also finished showering, came to his house with a schoolbag on his back. The two of them did their homework together in the living room.

After they wrote for a while, Xia Yuan stopped to think, looked at Mei Fang's hand holding the pen, and then nudged Mei Fang with his elbow:

"Mei Fang, can you please stretch out your hand for a moment?"

"What's wrong?"

"Spread your fingers out like this."

Xia Yuan stretched out his other hand and put his palm against Mei Fang's. "I... I just want to see how different our palms are."

Although girls' development starts earlier than boys', Xia Yuan's hands still feel small and soft compared to Mei Fang's.

Because they were so close, Mei Fang could still smell the fruity scent of her shower gel.

"Hmm... boys' hands are indeed much bigger."

"Xia Yuan."

"Um?"

Mei Fang smiled and said, "Don't you want to appear too close to me in public? Aren't we usually very casual at home..."

They were pinching each other's faces a while ago, so they weren't shy about touching each other's fingers.

"What are you saying? Don't you feel ashamed..."

Xia Yuan blushed and said, "My hands were sweaty at that time, so I didn't want to touch it. How could I be embarrassed? We grew up together, what's there to be embarrassed about?"

“That’s true.”

Xia Yuan has always had the burden of being an idol, and doesn’t want to show a bad image to others…

However, if Mei Fang really believed this, he would have grown up in vain.

Xia Yuan muttered and let go of Mei Fang's hand, then he lay down and spoke in a lazy and somewhat resentful tone:

"And if we really talk about a good relationship, Lin Youxi is much better with you than with me now."

"Why do you say that? You two obviously have a good relationship. I've never seen you two quarrel. Every time you both scold me."

"but… "

Xia Yuan frowned, "She usually only wants to come to your house to play, and she won't come to my house. Doesn't this explain the problem?"

"Is it because I have a computer at home? We play... ah, we always watch cartoons together, she is no longer old enough to play house with you. Besides, she also likes to play with my sister Xiaoya..."

"Mei Fang, Mei Fang... I'm only saying this to you, please don't tell her."

Xia Yuan whispered, "Actually, I feel like she doesn't like my parents very much, so she doesn't want to come to my house."

Thanks to unknown and passerby for their generous donations! I was thinking of adding more chapters, but then the editor said not to be so anxious, so I saved it and posted it together when I test the waters online!
