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

Chapter 73: A gift for dad

Is Yuanyuan here

Mei Fang’s first thought was to ride away on his bike, but he remembered that he was still wearing a life-saving equipment on his head.

"Oh, I'm wearing a helmet and it's okay. No one should be able to recognize me."

Mei Fang was looking across the street and indeed caught a glimpse of Xia Yuan.

At this moment, Xia Yuan was holding her mother's hand, and both of them were holding a bag in each hand, as if they had just returned from shopping for clothes.

She and her mother were talking and laughing, and seemed not to notice Mei Fang and Lin Youxi across the street.

After the light turned green, Mei Fang turned the corner and stopped, but Lin Youxi still held him tightly.

"Yuanyuan won't see it anymore, so you can let go."

"Ah Fang, do you think she can see us?"

Mei Fang shook his head, "That's not the case..."

"Are you sure?"

"Hmm... from such a distance, I wouldn't be able to recognize it even if I saw it!"

"That's good." Lin Youxi slowly let go of Mei Fang's embrace, "Let's go home now."

"But, Youxi..." Mei Fang paused, "Don't you think it's a bit weird for us to do this?"

"Strange... what?"

Mei Fang explained, "Although buying a bike and riding it today is a special case, I feel that after junior high school, we always seem to be sneaky when we are together. It's the same at school. You don't usually talk to me. It feels too deliberate."

"Yuanyuan is not in the same class with you now, and the academic pressure is too great. If the two of us always hang out together, I think—"

Lin Youxi paused, "I think she will feel very insecure."

"That's true, but..."

Mei Fang said worriedly, "I care about Yuanyuan as much as you do, but I also hope you can care more about yourself. It's okay if you don't talk to me... But don't force yourself not to talk to me, it will be very uncomfortable."

"I'm not fine!"

Lin Youxi suddenly pinched Mei Fang in anger.

"Afang, you are good in every way, but this is the most annoying thing about you! You always like to guess what I am thinking, and I like the way things are now. You must focus on studying at school and put more effort into studying, otherwise—"

As Lin Youxi was talking, she suddenly realized something. She leaned over from behind Mei Fang and whispered in his ear:

"Ah Fang... Do you feel uneasy because I ignored you at school?"

"Ah? Haha, stop joking, how is that possible..."

The warm breath from Lin Youxi's words hit Mei Fang's ears, and she felt tingling...

As soon as Mei Fang finished speaking, Lin Youxi suddenly kept pinching him, making Mei Fang scream:

"Hey, stop messing around! You are our class monitor, okay? Class monitor Lin, you are too naughty! If the students in Class 9 see you, they will laugh at you!"

"Hey, Team Leader Mei, please understand. We are not in school now."

Lin Youxi pinched the flesh on Mei Fang's waist and said, "I am not the squad leader Lin Youxi now. I am your childhood sweetheart Youxi now. Get to know the situation clearly."

She smiled and pinched Mei Fang's shoulders. "Actually, I thought you had made a lot of new friends at school, so you should be very fulfilled and you don't need me to accompany you all the time. But since Ah Fang will feel lonely, then I should get closer to you and play with you more often when I'm not at school."

"Who is lonely? Let's not talk about you and Yuanyuan. My naughty little sister is only 7 years old now. She annoys me every day and makes so much noise."

Mei Fang didn't understand why the topic suddenly turned into his loneliness. Fortunately, Lin Youxi didn't continue to talk about this with him and changed the subject:

"By the way, how is the early bird catches the worm game we made overseas now?"

"I haven't watched it for a long time. There are only a few dozen downloads a day, but I can't make much money."

Mei Fang's operating strategy is to put it out for free, and then make some money from traffic and advertising. There are only three fixed opportunities for immediate resurrection a day, but clicking on an advertisement will give you another chance to resurrect.

In 2008, the first generation of Pingguo did not enter the domestic market at all. Mei Fang had already had a lot of trouble setting up an overseas payment account. This time it is just a test of the waters process. If this game really wants to become popular, it has to wait until Pingguo goes international, becomes a real social game, and introduces rankings and sharing, before it can become popular.

"Now that this game is done, we can put it aside for now. Let's think about what kind of game we want to make in the future. Ah Fang, do you have any ideas?"

"Of course there is... But the timing is not right yet. Let's wait a year or two and see."

U3D does not support Android at this time, and Mei Fang's advance layout in the game can only go so far. Mei Fang does not have enough time, technology and manpower to make an independent terminal game.

"Also, I want to see if I have the ability to run a video website."

"A website for watching videos... like Yangyuyouku?"

"No... It's a relatively new website technology that I learned about on the forum. It's a bullet screen video playback website. It's quite popular in the Sakura Country in the past two years."

"Egg-tomb?"

Lin Youxi was very curious about the unknown knowledge. She kept pushing Mei Fang's back and urging him, "Tell me quickly, what is that for?"

"Hmm... that website, you should learn JAVA and GOLANG first, the specific performance is that you can scroll the messages sent by others on the video you are watching..."

Mei Fang drove Lin Youxi and chatted about his future plans to become an industry tycoon, and soon they arrived at Youxi's home.

Youxi's house is a relatively old two-story house with a single door and courtyard. Seeing the motorcycle parked in front of the house, she said to Mei Fang:

"Have you thought about what to say? Don't let the cat out of the bag."

"Yeah." Lin Youxi nodded, followed Mei Fang into the house, and told her father about winning the grand prize at the New Year Supermarket.

"Going to the supermarket with Mei Fang... Is this the car I won on the ticket?"

Lin Guochuan looked at the electric car outside the house, as well as the "overjoyed" expressions of Lin Youxi and Mei Fang. He was still a little confused after just waking up, and did not seem very happy. He just scratched his head and said, "Since you two won together, it can't be monopolized by our family."

"It's okay, Uncle Lin, I just accompanied Youxi to buy things, and the prize was drawn by her, it has nothing to do with me. I just helped Youxi ride back."

"You can't say that. How much is this car? I'll give you half. But Mei Fang, you have to go back and give it to your mother. I'll call your mother later to talk about this."

As Lin Guochuan spoke, he took out a dozen hundred-dollar bills from his wallet and handed them to Mei Fang.

"No, really no, Uncle Lin—"

"Afang, just take it." Lin Youxi was also persuading Mei Fang to take over, and Mei Fang no longer refused when seeing this.

"This car is great... You two are quite capable."

Lin Guochuan finally came to his senses and looked at the electric bike with great joy. "My old motorcycle always won't start. Now I have a replacement."

"It's just that this bike is a little small, so it's not very convenient for Uncle Lin to ride."

"It's okay if it's small, uncle, I don't care about that, as long as I can ride it, haha."

Just as his daughter said, Lin Guochuan didn't care about whether the bike was suitable for him. He smiled and said, "When you are older, Fang, I will lend you this bike."

"Okay, Uncle Lin!"

"Then Dad, I'm going to go play at Afang's house now."

"Will you come back for lunch?"

"I'm back. I'll finish my meal at home and go over in the afternoon." Lin Youxi nodded. "It's rare for you to stay at home and not go to the construction site. I will definitely eat with you."

"It's okay for me. If you want to eat at Mei Fang's house, that's fine too."

After saying goodbye to his daughter Mei Fang, Lin Guochuan tried to drive the electric car that Lin Youxi won in the lottery.

Although it is a bit crowded, starting an electric car is much easier than starting a motorcycle.

I can pick Youxi up to school when I’m free in the future.

Lin Guochuan was thinking about something when he suddenly found a small receipt tucked under the storage baffle on the inside of the electric car.

He bent down and picked up the receipt, which had the contact number of the Aima Electric Vehicle Shop and the payment amount written on it.

Lin Guochuan immediately realized that the gift given to him was not as simple as winning a lottery.

He immediately turned on his cell phone and prepared to call Mei Fang's home.

But his finger hovered over the dial key for a moment and then dropped it.

Lin Guochuan sat on the electric bike in silence for a long time, staring blankly at the sky.

In his eyes, Youxi has always been a sensible daughter that he is proud of.

But the more sensible she was, the more guilty he felt as a father.

He felt guilty for not caring enough for his daughter and didn't even know she had saved so much money.

He has always left Lin Youxi's New Year's money to his daughter, and his daughter also has her own savings account.

Besides that, she should have found a way to make some money.

As for the source of the money, he believed that his daughter would not do anything out of line, and her best friend Mei Fang should have known the whole process...

After a while, he looked through his phone's address book and dialed the number again.

This time, the call was to a friend of his.

The two exchanged pleasantries on the phone for a while, and then Lin Guochuan got down to business:

"By the way, Lao Jiang, about the thing you mentioned last time..."

"Hey, Lao Lin, have you finally come to your senses? I've said it before, people should always look forward, and it's time for you to move on. Also, you may not care, but Youxi is already this age, and there are many things you can't teach her as a father, and you don't have time to take good care of her."

"No matter what, in this family, there must always be a mother, otherwise the daughter will never feel like she belongs."

"I know... Then please contact her and see when she is free to meet. I want to have a good chat with her."

"I told you about her situation last time. Do you have any other questions?"

Lin Guochuan paused and continued, "Nothing... Let's talk about it after we meet."

"As long as... she can be nice to Youxi."

I was thinking about the plot later! So I forgot to post it on time, sorry!
