Xia Yuan and Lin Youxi finished their one-week short-term training in Baizhou City. It was almost the end of the year when they returned to their hometown in Baimei County with Mei Fang.
There was not much time left before the New Year, so Mei Fang still gathered her friends for a party like she did last year.
In the same KTV room as last year, Mei Fang invited her friends from last year to meet together.
The total dividend this year is twice as much as last year, and Mei Fang has prepared a bonus of 10,000 yuan for Peng Xue, who had been a bystander before, because of her help during the summer vacation.
Of course, for Peng Xue, another thing that happened this year made her much happier than getting the bonus. She was the first person to arrive at the private room, and when Mei Fang, Xia Yuan, and Lin Youxi arrived, they immediately ran up to greet her:
"Hey, hey, hey... Isn't this our Yuanbao! Long time no see, I miss you so much!"
Peng Xue and Xia Yuan met their old friend, and they jumped up and down holding hands.
After Peng Xue and Xia Yuan were intimate, she hugged Xia Yuan and made faces at Mei Fang, "Boss Mei, you bad guy, you tricked our Yuan Bao to go to Baizhou for so long, and I can't play with our Yuan Bao. We have few opportunities to meet."
"Oh... I'm back to see you."
Xia Yuan pinched Peng Xue's cheek, "Wow, Xiaoxue, your hairstyle is so cool now, it's full of punk style!"
Peng Xue combed her hair to one side, with the bangs in front half covering her eyes. She made a few braided braids on the side with less hair, which is a more fashionable and cool hairstyle than ever before.
"Hey, isn't it amazing? Let me tell you, there are even more amazing ones!"
As Peng Xue spoke, she showed off the bright red highlights in her front hair.
"Wow, Xiaoxue, you dyed your hair?"
"Hey, this is highlights, it's usually not noticeable."
Peng Xue said as she leaned over to Lin Youxi who was standing beside her. She gently patted Lin Youxi's shoulder and said, "Youxi, don't be too sad. After all, life is not always as you wish. At least you have had it before, right?"
Peng Xue said she had had it before because Xia Yuan once told her that Lin Youxi and Mei Fang had kissed each other. After Xia Yuan told Peng Xue about this, she felt a little regretful and told Lin Youxi about it, but Lin Youxi said it didn't matter.
Although she knew that Peng Xue's consolation was fake and her yin and yang were real, Lin Youxi was not angry with Peng Xue at all. She just smiled and nodded at her, "Indeed, other people have never even had it before. I still maintain the same relationship with Yuanyuan and Ah Fang as before, and I am already very satisfied."
…
Peng Xue felt a little puzzled by Lin Youxi's words.
What this said...
Although she was surprised that Lin Youxi and Xia Yuan did not become estranged from each other because of this, what did it mean to "never had it before"
“Youxi-chan’s words are so weird, hahahaha! You said it as if I would be interested in someone—”
Peng Xue patted Lin Youxi's shoulder vigorously, but after a few pats, Mei Fang grabbed Peng Xue's wrist.
"Okay, you've hurt Youxi. And don't block the door. Let us go in and sit down, okay?"
"...Okay, okay, whatever Boss Mei says is fine."
Peng Xue tactfully put her hands behind her back, and Xia Yuan pulled her to sit down. She watched Mei Fang and Lin Youxi come in and sit down one after another. They didn't look strange, like the most familiar strangers. They leaned close to each other and chatted, looking very intimate.
Lin Youxi's temperament has changed a lot compared to junior high school.
In the past, the impression she left on people was that of a very cool and aloof academic master, with a bit of an introverted temperament that was prone to making trouble.
But now her aura is completely different from the past. She seems very calm and composed from the moment she entered the door. Her temperament displayed in her conversation and actions is very mature. Especially when interacting with Mei Fang, she looks like the eldest wife and the queen.
How can Boss Mei have such a big loser by his side
Suddenly I felt that something was wrong.
At this time, Xia Yuan was ordering songs with great interest. Peng Xue came up to her and started talking to her while ordering songs:
"Yuanyuan, Yuanyuan?"
"Um...what's wrong?"
"Are you really dating Mei Fang?"
"Why do you ask that?"
"I think Youxi and your Fangbao have a pretty good relationship."
"Ah... that." Xia Yuan scratched his head and explained guiltily, "We are childhood sweethearts. How could we become distant just because I'm with Ah Fang?"
"But this is too—"
"Oh, that's what childhood sweethearts are like! Don't take it too seriously."
"Xiaoxue, what are you doing?"
"Singing my own songs in KTV, isn't it a great sense of accomplishment?"
"Not at all, it's really embarrassing!"
Xia Yuan and Peng Xue were having a great time playing around when Yue Xinyi and Zhang Ming came in almost at the same time.
Originally, Yue Xinyi was in a weird mood when she came to the party. She actually hated coming here to see Peng Xue showing off, but she couldn't go against money. She was mentally prepared to be treated to some dog food by Mei Fang and Xia Yuan, but when she came in, she saw Mei Fang and Lin Youxi having a great conversation. Suddenly, she felt as if she was in another world.
She suddenly recalled the old days when she was young and sat next to Lin Youxi and watched her and him as a couple. Although she was not as rich as she is now, she lived a happy life and every day was a sweet moment of pairing up with him.
Just as she was immersed in the beautiful memories of the past, Zhang Ming beside her kept pushing her, "Hey... what are you doing blocking the road? Let me in."
"What's the hurry? You're such a hassle!"
Yue Xinyi stepped hard on Zhang Ming, who had broken her beautiful memories, and Zhang Ming screamed in pain.
"Xinyi, you're here."
Lin Youxi greeted Yue Xinyi with a smile. Yue Xinyi had never been treated so kindly by Lin Youxi before, so she sat down happily. "Class monitor, you have changed a lot!"
"Why are you calling her squad leader again? Shouldn't you just call her Youxi?" There was a hint of blame in Lin Youxi's words, and Yue Xinyi was even more delighted.
"Oh, it's been so long since we last met that I almost forgot! You did say before that I could just call you Youxi."
"I thought you would call each other 'Miss' or 'Big Sister' when you meet."
Mei Fang was complaining at the side, and then Yue Xinyi rolled her eyes, "You occupy the young lady for so long every day, and I can't even have a conversation with her, get out of here! Aren't you going to catch up with your old buddy Zhang Ming!"
"Ah this..."
Mei Fang looked at Zhang Ming awkwardly. Zhang Ming frowned and showed a look of disgust. "You wouldn't show such an expression even if you don't want to talk to me, right?"
"No, no, I don't want to talk! Come on, sit down, let me see how your hair volume is now."
"I'm just a planner. Besides, who would go bald so early?"
Liu Xiaoyu had received the bonus from Mei Fang before, and said that she had something to do today so she couldn't come along; as for the protagonist Guo Yun, who should have been the biggest contributor to the success of this work, she did not go back to Baimei County to celebrate the New Year this year, so Mei Fang made an appointment with her to meet again after the New Year.
Everyone sang in KTV, divided the bonuses, talked about recent developments, and spent the annual homecoming reunion.
Peng Xue, Yue Xinyi and Zhang Ming are the closest friends of Xia Yuan, Lin Youxi and Mei Fang besides each other. This relationship status does not seem to have changed even in high school, and they are still friends who can talk about anything.
"However, some people have stopped coming since the beginning of this year. If we want to get together again in the future, I'm afraid it will become more and more difficult every year..."
Peng Xue suddenly spoke to herself with some emotion, and Xia Yuan took the initiative to hug Peng Xue, "As long as we keep thinking about each other, we work hard for our dreams together, no matter what time, we will be together."
Yue Xinyi, who was standing aside, looked at Xia Yuanhe thoughtfully. At this time, Lin Youxi leaned close to Yue Xinyi's ear as he usually did to Mei Fang, and thanked her warmly:
"Thank you for your hard work this year, big sister."
“It’s all for the development of the website… I’m also working hard for myself.”
Youxi has really changed... She has become much more humane than before.
How should I put it... Even if it's because I want to win people's hearts after becoming a boss, I feel it's very useful.
Lin Youxi then continued:
"Also, thank you so much for lending me those novels."
“The knowledge there is very practical.”
Yue Xinyi was stunned for a long time after hearing this, and immediately showed a puzzled expression -
"Huh?"
There is one more chapter before 12 o'clock. Also, please give me some more monthly tickets. Love you!
Regarding the previous chapter, my friend wrote some fan fiction, if you are interested you can go and take a look.
