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

“Next, I will announce the results of this week’s physics exam. Although the questions were difficult, one student still managed to score full marks, and that is our Class Monitor, Lin Youxi, who scored 85 points.”

“Mei Fang also did very well, scoring 84 points. Don’t be careless next time, you definitely won’t score worse than Lin Youxi.”

…

The physics teacher finished reading out the scores, but one person’s name was conspicuously absent.

“Furthermore, I want to strongly criticize Xia Yuan. Your performance in this exam has regressed significantly. You are the only one in the class who failed. Go stand outside.”

Feeling the burning gazes of her classmates directed at her, Xia Yuan stood up trembling, filled with self-blame and shame.

Sitting beside her were her childhood friends, Lin Youxi and Mei Fang, both of them sharing expressions filled with disappointment.

She could even see Lin Youxi whispering intimately to Mei Fang, complaining in a disdainful tone:

“Mei Fang, let’s not play with Yuan Yuan anymore in the future. She can no longer keep up with us.”

“Indeed, to achieve such results after studying physics for so long, I’ve wasted so much time accompanying her to study together.”

Sigh…

Xia Yuan woke up from her dream, a tear sliding down her cheek.

She covered her face and remained silent on the bed for a long time, before finally getting up under her mother’s urging.

In the morning, Mei Fang was waiting outside Xia Yuan’s house as usual. When Xia Yuan saw Mei Fang, she parked her bicycle to the side and threw herself into Mei Fang’s arms without saying a word.

“What’s wrong, what’s wrong? Do you need my super energy so early in the morning? Did you have a nightmare again last night?” Mei Fang asked.

Xia Yuan nodded in distress, “You really understand me the best. I dreamt that I failed the physics exam in the Advanced Class, and Youxi said not to play with a loser like me anymore, and you agreed.”

“Always overthinking.”

Mei Fang gently pinched Xia Yuan’s cheek, “Have you ever thought about what our relationship is? Even if there comes a day when I become fed up with you, both Youxi and I will stand firmly by your side. Think about how we’ve been together since kindergarten——”

“You dare to be fed up with me!” Xia Yuan pouted and playfully punched Mei Fang’s chest.

“Ouch, ouch, ouch, ouch, ouch… I was just giving an example. That kind of thing will never happen.”

“Don’t even give such examples.”

“Okay, okay, I was wrong.”

Mei Fang gently stroked Xia Yuan’s head, “You’re under a lot of pressure as the Science Experimental Class exam is approaching. I think you need to release some stress. Let’s go shopping this weekend, buy some delicious food and have fun. Or come to my house to play games and watch movies. We still haven’t watched Resident Evil 3, we can also invite Youxi.”

Xia Yuan shook her head, “I’m so stressed right now that I wish I could squeeze out an extra hour to solve a set of physics test questions. I don’t have much time for other things. There’s no time for anything else. Of course, except for this…”

Xia Yuan hugged Mei Fang tightly, causing Mei Fang to feel physically uncomfortable due to their overly intimate actions.

“Yuan Yuan, um, how should I put this, I have also grown up, I am a big boy now, you understand what I mean, right?”

“I know, so what?”

Xia Yuan leaned on Mei Fang’s shoulder, rubbing her cheek against his, and wearing a lazy smile. “We are childhood sweethearts, Ah Fang, even if you have become a big boy, you are still my big boy. There’s nothing to be embarrassed about…”

This silly girl, always playing with fire…

Thank goodness that I, Mei Fang, have always been a gentleman in both lives, only doing what a middle school student of this age should do…

Riding their bicycles, Mei Fang and Xia Yuan met Lin Youxi, who had been waiting at the intersection for a long time. Mei Fang immediately greeted Lin Youxi and started talking about what happened just now.

“Do you know, Youxi, Yuan Yuan had a dream last night, she dreamt of——”

Mei Fang was immediately interrupted by Xia Yuan, who covered his mouth from behind. “You talk too much! You’re so annoying, Ah Fang!”

“So, what happened exactly?”

“It’s nothing… just a bad dream.”

After saying this, Xia Yuan urged them, “We are leaving too late, if we don’t hurry, we will be late. We still have the monthly exam today, we need to review quickly.”

Lin Youxi felt puzzled by Xia Yuan’s behavior because she had forgotten to do something she usually does.

“Um… Aren’t you going to hug me?”

Xia Yuan was reminded and then moved closer to give Lin Youxi a hug.

“I almost forgot to get some super energy from Youxi. Hehe.”

Xia Yuan apologized sheepishly, sticking out her tongue, “It’s my daily essential ritual, and I actually forgot to do it. I’m really being too careless!”

“Indeed, you’re acting strange today.”

Xia Yuan pouted and gave Mei Fang an annoyed look, then continued riding her bicycle forward.

The three of them parked their bicycles neatly in the bicycle parking lot and chatted about daily events. When they were about to part ways, Xia Yuan told Lin Youxi that she wouldn’t be having lunch with her today.

“I need to review in the classroom, so I won’t be coming downstairs.”

“Then let me bring you lunch——”

Before Lin Youxi could finish, Xia Yuan quickly waved her hand with a smile, “No need, Xiaoxue will bring it for me. You and Yue Xinyi can have lunch together.”

“Um… alright.”

Xia Yuan patted Lin Youxi’s shoulder, “See you later, Youxi. We’ll be in the same classroom for the exam.”

“Um… that’s right.”

Lin Youxi and Mei Fang entered their classroom together. On the way, she turned to Mei Fang and said, “Yuan Yuan seems strange today.”

“Yeah… probably because of the nightmare she had last night.”

“Do you know what nightmare she had last night?”

Mei Fang nodded, but thinking about how unwilling Xia Yuan was just now, he seemed very hesitant.

“If Yuan Yuan doesn’t want to tell, I won’t force you to tell me.”

Lin Youxi smiled slightly and gently patted Mei Fang’s arm, “Let’s focus on preparing for today’s exam.”

“Mhm-hmmm,” Mei Fang nodded.

The monthly exam at Experimental Middle School takes place every month, unlike the mid-term and final exams which cover all subjects, the monthly exam only tests Chinese, math, English, and physics. The pressure for review is relatively less, but the results still affect the rankings.

As soon as Mei Fang sat down, Yue Xinyi started to put pressure on everyone.

“Have you heard, have you heard? The questions of the physics test for this month’s exam were set by Teacher Ke from Class 13!”

“…”

Guo Yun’s face turned dark when she heard the name of the teacher, “Is it the physics teacher who set the exam last December?”

“Yes! Do you remember? That crazy physics teacher.”

Guo Yun nodded, “I was in Class 1 before. None of us passed the physics test that time, and the physics teacher scolded us for a whole class.”

“Pfft. Although what you said is a bit funny, I remember I didn’t pass that test either.”

Yue Xinyi showed a helpless expression, “This time, we can only face the exam calmly. There’s no other way, we’ll just have to endure the scolding. Life is about growing through scolding. In any case, the Chinese language teacher will manage to turn the parts where the physics teacher scolds me into praise.

Yue Xinyi noticed that Mei Fang was showing interest in their conversation and immediately made a shooing gesture with her hand, urging Mei Fang to leave. “Physics geniuses like you and Youxi won’t understand the pain of physics weaklings like us.”

Mei Fang commented, “I’ve noticed that people who are good at Chinese seem to struggle with physics.”

“It’s not always the case! I’ve seen Xia Yuan frequently get the top score in Chinese, and her physics is not bad either.”

“Our Yuan Yuan’s performance is not very consistent. If the questions are simple, her results are okay, but that’s not the case when the questions are difficult.”

Listening to Mei Fang’s explanations, Yue Xinyi’s expression gradually distorted, “Tsk, tsk… Just because we’re getting along well now, do you now think it’s okay to show off your childhood sweetheart without restraint?”

Yue Xinyi stared at Mei Fang with disdain, “You said Xia Yuan didn’t do well on her physics exam, but that’s only compared to you guys. I remember she passed her physics exam last year. But the most infuriating thing is you and Youxi, with one getting 78 and the other 82, it’s simply unbearable. It’s impressive that Xia Yuan has been able to hang out with you two for so long!”

“That’s because you don’t understand our Yuan Yuan.” Mei Fang smiled and shook his head, “If Youxi and I let her not study properly, or help her cheat, she would be very angry. It’s a matter of principle for her, and it’s not something that can be easily appeased.”

“Stop talking about your Yuan Yuan all the time. Mei Fang, are you trying to disgust us with your cheesy words!”

“Okay… don’t fight.” Guo Yun awkwardly tried to mediate. “Aren’t you already used to this long ago…?”

Mei Fang raised his eyebrows, “Do you have any objections to how I address Youxi?”

After nearly two years of getting along, Yue Xinyi had already revealed her allegiance to Youxi, so when Mei Fang said this, she immediately became excited, “Yes, that’s more like it! Call her more, call her more, I want to see some sweetness!”

What an annoying girl with double standards…
