After hanging up the phone, Mei Fang explained the situation at Lin Youxi's home to Xia Yuan and others. Xia Yuan immediately expressed her desire to go with Mei Fang to accompany Youxi and help her make up her mind.
So Mei Fang drove Xia Yuan to Lin Youxi's house. Liang Meijuan opened the yard door and came in. At this moment, Lin Youxi was discussing the surgery with her father Lin Guochuan in the living room.
Seeing Mei Fang coming, the two immediately stopped discussing. Lin Youxi stood up and explained the situation:
"Ah Fang, my dad promised me to go to a big city for a follow-up checkup first, so over there—"
Xia Yuan said, "Just now I asked my father to help contact a professor of respiratory medicine he knows, and see Uncle Lin go to Jiangcheng for a reexamination to confirm the results. If the results do indicate a problem, we will make an appointment."
"Well, thank you for your help, Yuanyuan."
Lin Youxi's expression was serious and full of gratitude, which made Xia Yuan feel very strange. She immediately pinched Lin Youxi's cheek and said, "What kind of relationship is there between us? Why are we so distant..."
"This is something that can only be done by you and Ah Fang, so... that is—"
"It's okay, it's really not a problem."
Xia Yuan smiled at Lin Youxi, and then encouraged Lin Guochuan beside him: "Uncle Lin, minimally invasive surgery is a minor operation, and it will not have much impact on the body. You can do it with confidence. There is nothing to worry about. After the operation, you can rest well and recuperate. Then let everyone rest assured."
"Yeah, I know. Youxi and your aunt Meijuan also talked to me for a long time just now."
Lin Guochuan coughed a few times and then said, "I have always had this nodule, and I always feel a little uneasy. I don't want them to worry about my health all the time."
"Uncle Lin, I will take you to Jiangcheng for a follow-up checkup tomorrow. You can get a checkup number quickly by going to the special outpatient clinic."
"Well, there's no need to be so anxious. It's not a big deal... Just spend the New Year in peace."
"Then—"
Mei Fang glanced at Lin Youxi standing beside him, and seeing her nod in agreement, Mei Fang stopped insisting.
"Well, let's do as Uncle Lin thinks."
…
After finalizing the inspection plan with Lin Guochuan, Mei Fang and Xia Yuan took Lin Youxi for a walk on the streets of Baimei County.
Mei Fang has been driving when he goes out during this period, so the experience of walking on the street this time seemed a little novel.
Lin Youxi accompanied her father for the checkup today and didn't seem very energetic. Xia Yuan held her hand and kept close to her on the way:
"Your father will be fine, don't worry. The professor my father introduced is very capable, so there will be no problem."
"Well... Thank you Yuanyuan."
Lin Youxi smiled slightly and said, "I definitely don't have any opinion about the doctor, but when I heard what the doctor said today, I felt very uneasy."
"Very uneasy?"
Lin Youxi nodded. "If I hadn't insisted on taking Dad for a physical examination last year, I think this nodule would have continued to develop. If it really developed into cancer, I would probably feel very sorry no matter how much money I made."
"My father is in his 40s. He has been very busy for the past few decades, but he has only started to enjoy his life this year. I have been studying hard and working with Afang to earn money since I was a child, hoping that my father's life would be better... That is, I would suddenly think of it."
Lin Youxi held Xia Yuan in one hand and Mei Fang in the other, looked up at him and smiled, "If something really happened to Dad, I think I would really regret being so mean to him and treating him badly..."
Now Youxi always maintains a very strong feminine style in front of outsiders. Even when interacting with three people and deciding major events, Lin Youxi always shows a very reliable and steady side.
However, when it comes to maintaining kinship with her family, Lin Youxi always seems fragile and sensitive.
On the one hand, she would complain that her father was a good man who always sacrificed himself to let others take advantage of him; on the other hand, she was very concerned about her father's health and was afraid that something might happen to him.
The father-daughter relationship between her and Lin Guochuan is actually quite complicated.
But, would such a conflict arise only between Youxi and Lin Guochuan
The relationship between myself and my mother, and the relationship between Yuanyuan and Xia Xun are often in a contradictory state, with a kind of inexplicable entanglement.
"In fact, I think it's normal for family members to quarrel. Everyone's original intention is for the good of each other. This has nothing to do with moral kidnapping. It's just that each other has experienced different things and has different values. This is also normal. If you don't care about each other, you won't quarrel."
As Mei Fang was talking, Xia Yuan poked his head out and gave a different opinion, "But if we can avoid quarreling, it's better not to quarrel, right? I don't like to see my parents quarreling. I feel that when parents quarrel, children are most traumatized. I still remember the way my mom and dad quarreled when my dad wanted to sell the hotel..."
"For children, the ugly behavior of their parents when they quarrel can leave a shadow in their childhood... But this topic is different from what we are talking about now, so we can't generalize it, right?"
"I just thought of this suddenly."
Xia Yuan muttered, "What I mean is that when the three of us have children in the future, we must not quarrel. It will have a great impact on the children."
"The three of us have only had a few arguments, and no one has ever said anything unpleasant, right?"
"Um... this is true."
Lin Youxi interrupted the conversation between Xia Yuan and Mei Fang and said with a smile, "What do you remember is the most unpleasant thing we have said to each other?"
"Let me think..."
Xia Yuan raised his head and thought, "I just remember that I fought with Youxi for Ah Fang before, and I asked Youxi to give Ah Fang to me."
"… "
"… "
Mei Fang and Lin Youxi looked at each other, then laughed and said, "This can be considered a quarrel."
"Why, why doesn't it count? Youxi, you have forgotten how sad we were back then."
"It's sad, but it's not that bad. I just remember that Yuanyuan always liked to say that she was not as good as me in this way or that way, and she liked to waste her energy."
"Yes, that's right!"
Xia Yuan muttered and smiled, "I don't seem to remember the rest."
Lin Youxi shook her head. "I don't have any impression. It's really strange. Why can't we quarrel when we are with Ah Fang?"
"Well... maybe it's because I don't bother with you guys."
Mei Fang scratching his head immediately aroused the dissatisfaction of Xia Yuan and Lin Youxi.
"What do you mean, don't bother with us... You think we are children and you are the adults, right?"
"That's what he meant."
Lin Youxi said as she broke away from Mei Fang's hand and put her hand into Mei Fang's cotton-padded jacket, "You actually said that Yuanyuan and I were children. Sister Youxi, I am going to punish you."
"Hey, I'm so cold, Youxi, don't be like this... Yuanyuan, help me, quickly!"
"I, I will help Youxi to bully you! How dare you look down on Sister Yuanyuan and Sister Youxi, you stinky brother Fang!"
At this moment, a piece of ice crystal fell on the tip of Mei Fang's nose. The cold touch made Mei Fang look up unconsciously.
"Is it snowing?"
"Oh, it seems so..."
Xia Yuan and Lin Youxi stopped making a fuss, and by then the town was already covered with snowflakes.
Soon, the trees on both sides of the path were covered with white snow. Their branches danced with the flower-like snow, and combined with the three people who stood up under the trees to admire the snow scene, they formed a unique picture.
"It feels like it's been a long time since 2008 when the county hasn't seen snow like this."
"Maybe we can have a snowball fight together this year." Xia Yuan said with a smile, "We haven't had a snowball fight together for a long time."
"Yes, it was indeed a long, long time ago..."
Lin Youxi stretched out his hand and opened his palm. The white snowflakes and ice crystals fell on the palm of his hand, but they did not melt directly. Instead, they maintained a relatively complete hexagonal ice crystal shape.
She handed the snowflake shape in her palm to Mei Fang for observation. Mei Fang gently held Lin Youxi's hand and blew gently, and then the ice crystals quickly melted into water.
"Speaking of which, we haven't celebrated Ah Fang and You Xi's birthday together before the New Year. How are we going to celebrate your birthday this year?"
"Huh? Doesn't the night of the family meeting count as a birthday?"
Mei Fang was surprised and said, "I thought you thought this was a birthday program."
"No, no! What kind of birthday celebration would that be..."
Lin Youxi smiled and kissed Mei Fang on the cheek as she spoke, "We will still celebrate our birthdays together at Pengcheng's home stadium this year, okay, Ah Fang?"
"Okay... It's up to you. Anyway, such a happy day is like a birthday to me every day."
After hearing this, Xia Yuan smiled and pinched Mei Fang, "Ah Fang is so sweet, no wonder she can win the favor of Sister You Xi."
"I don't like Ah Fang just because he's sweet. He's my soul mate."
Lin Youxi turned sideways and looked at Xia Yuan, "Yuanyuan, isn't it?"
"Of course I am too!"
Xia Yuan blushed and grumbled, "It was just a joke, but Youxi still wanted to compete with me."
"I'm not competing, I just think you're cute."
Lin Youxi smiled and said, "It would be great if I could give birth to a daughter as cute as Yuanyuan."
Xia Yuan smiled and said, "Then I also want to give birth to a girl as smart as Youxi."
"That depends on whether Ah Fang can give it his all."
"Look, look at what I am!"
“Hahahahahaha!”
The laughter of childhood friends echoed in the snowy streets of the town. Everyone was chatting shamelessly about having children. As Lin Youxi talked, her eyes became gentler:
"Come to think of it, if I hadn't met you guys, I would have had a hard time coming up with the idea of starting a family."
"But after going through all this, I really want to expand our family so that the children can experience and grow together. It's a very happy thing to have each other's memories integrated into theirs."
"Although this is something you should consider after you graduate from college, has Ah Fang ever thought about planning for having children?"
Xia Yuan tilted her head and smiled, "For example... how many children do you want to have..."
"Giving birth is very hard, and I don't want to bear this pain, so I think you have the final say on this matter."
"Hey, just tell me what you think... How many do you want? Do you prefer girls or boys?"
"Of course it would be better to have both sons and daughters... But if I have too many, the age difference will be too big, and I'm worried that the children won't be evenly matched." Mei Fang thought for a moment, "I think 2 to 4 is good enough."
"Each person has 2 to 4, so between the two of us, that's 4 to 8."
Lin Youxi smiled and said, "Ah Fang, you are quite thoughtful. It's almost a football team."
"Of course I meant there will be this many in total. Why would I ask you to each have so many children?"
Having children is not an option in Mei Fang's plan for 2015, but everyone has already started to have all kinds of free and unconstrained fantasies about the future, imagining a sweeter and better life in the future.
For an ordinary person, family means identity built by blood. The family affection maintained by blood has a magical power. A good family inheritance makes all members willing to work together to strengthen the family.
However, the mutual understanding and support between relatives, this blood-thicker-than-water bond, for two strangers, to achieve this level of affection still requires a lot of hard work and effort;
In the spring of 2015, Yuanxi Interactive Entertainment experienced 100 major celebrations and New Year’s Eve Gala, and is now the most popular Internet unicorn giant.
The introduction of the concept of virtual idols has brought the influence and popularity of C Station's live broadcasts to a whole new level.
At the same time, Fang Wenku version 1.0, which has been under fundraising since last year, was officially unveiled to the public at the beginning of this year.
Fang Wenku announced the arrival of Guoqing in the most two-dimensional way—Wenku Niang, who has an independent IP character, began to vigorously promote and launch it.
In the early days, Fangwenku focused on accumulating original light novels and a small amount of derivative fan fiction.
Although Fang Wenku has featured and supported many original light novels, relying on the influence of the original IP, derivative fan fiction quickly occupied half of Fang Wenku's territory.
Although the traffic of derivative fan fiction is delicious, it undoubtedly means the existence of risks. At present, this sector has obtained many conveniences and some promises from copyright holders because of the kingdom established by Yuanxi Interactive Entertainment in the copyright war, but it is definitely not suitable for the development of Guoqing in the long run. This is also a problem that Mei Fang urgently needs to solve this year.
At the beginning of this year, Ximilu Games officially announced the upcoming arrival of "FGO". This second-hand game with the original IP has top influence on C Station and will soon set the tone for C Station's turnaround and second take-off.
At the same time, the Xianyu Studio led by Zhang Ming, the Ximilu Studio led by Mei Fang, and the Coconut Juice Studio which continues to specialize in parkour casual games will all launch new products this year.
This is also the content that Fang Dimension 2.0 will present to you.
As for Mei Fang, his emotional life is close to perfection, but in terms of career, he wants to make up for the regrets of his previous life. Now, he is still far from being able to rest...
Tomorrow Will Be Destined
