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

Xia Yuan had been practicing at home for some time since her father bought her the equipment. She could easily control her inline skates and glide smoothly with just a few steps.

On the other hand, Lin Youxi appeared much clumsier.

Because it was her first time playing today, she had to rely on Mei Fang’s support every two steps. She almost stumbled and fell at the end, but luckily she held onto Mei Fang’s shoulder and didn’t let go.

“You didn’t even buy roller skates, and it’s your first time, right? How can you skate so steadily?”

Lin Youxi complained, “No wonder you never came to play with us when we asked you to. Did you secretly learn on your own?”

Mei Fang smiled slightly, “This is really my first time playing.”

It wasn’t technically a lie either.

After Xia Yuan skated a few laps in the square and saw Mei Fang still supporting Lin Youxi step by step, she couldn’t help but step forward and say:

“Mei Fang, let me take Lin Youxi for a skate too. You can go play by yourself!”

Lin Youxi was concerned about Xia Yuan, “No need, I’m afraid I’ll fall and you won’t be able to hold me… It wouldn’t be good if you fell too.”

Mei Fang frowned, “Then what about me?”

“Mei Fang has thick skin, even if he falls, he won’t get hurt.”

“I, I’m fine. Look at all the protective gear I have. Even if I fall, I won’t get hurt.”

Xia Yuan leaned over and held one of Lin Youxi’s hands, “Can you skate with me? Let Mei Fang play by himself.”

“Okay…”

Seeing Xia Yuan’s insistence, Lin Youxi nodded and held Xia Yuan’s hand tighter.

“I really don’t know how to skate, so be careful.”

“It’s okay, I’m watching… Oops… Oops!”

Lin Youxi stumbled and almost tripped Xia Yuan, but Mei Fang, who was nearby, didn’t go far. He followed along and held onto Lin Youxi’s arm to prevent any accidents.

“See, I told you it’s very dangerous.”

“You don’t need to come, I just need Xia Yuan. I’ll definitely learn quickly!”

Xia Yuan supported Lin Youxi step by step, and the two of them skated back and forth on the south side of the square. Mei Fang didn’t follow them all the way, but watched them from a distance as they tried their best.

It would have been so much fun even without me joining them. Why did they have to call me…

Mei Fang then thought that if he hadn’t gotten closer to Xia Yuan and Lin Youxi in this life, Lin Youxi and Xia Yuan might still be very close best friends.

As for Lin Youxi eventually becoming a cold and aloof top student who always stood alone, it was probably because she lost her only friend, Xia Yuan, in that tragic incident, and her heart closed off again.

Mei Fang had also thought about finding a way to directly or indirectly intervene and understand Xia Yuan’s father’s business in order to deal with the upcoming crisis. However, the actual operation was too difficult.

Before his rebirth, he was just an ordinary office worker.

Moreover, not to mention anything else, at Mei Fang’s current age of almost 10, it is impossible for Xia Yuan’s father to take his words seriously.

For him, the only thing he can do is to give more attention and companionship.

Such a desperate choice will inevitably affect the loved ones around him to some extent.

Whether it is Xia Yuan or Xia Yuan’s mother, Teacher Yu, Mei Fang spends time with them day and night. In such close attention, if something is about to happen, he will have the opportunity to notice the signs.

“Mei Fang, Mei Fang! Look!”

Mei Fang’s thoughts were interrupted by Xia Yuan’s shout in the distance. When she waved her hand vigorously, Lin Youxi no longer needed Xia Yuan’s support and started sliding forward on her own.

Although her movements still seemed very awkward, looking at the ground, waving her hands back and forth, and maintaining a delicate balance, she was indeed making progress.

Mei Fang stood opposite Lin Youxi, watching her slowly slide over. Finally, when Lin Youxi couldn’t hold on any longer and was about to reach Mei Fang, she instinctively reached out and grabbed his short sleeve cuff.

“Phew…”

“It’s really not easy.”

“It’s impressive for my first time like this.”

Lin Youxi retorted.

“It’s my first time skating today too.”

“You’re a liar.”

Lin Youxi turned Mei Fang’s shoulder slowly, seemingly wanting to go back to Xia Yuan’s side. However, when she had only slid a few meters, a speeding figure came from a distance and almost collided with Lin Youxi.

Mei Fang, due to the angle, noticed it in advance and instinctively took action, pulling Lin Youxi back to his side. Because both of them were wearing roller skates, they circled each other like dancing.

The boy who almost collided also made an evasive action, but obviously his braking skills were not up to par. He stumbled to a stop when he turned sideways, half kneeling on the ground, and then stood up, shouting:

“Watch where you’re going! You’re blocking the way!”

The boy arrogantly scolded Mei Fang and Lin Youxi. Of course, Lin Youxi was not an easy-going girl either. She immediately got angry and confronted him:

“You clearly bumped into us first, and you have the nerve to say that! Shameless!”

“If you didn’t skate so slowly, how could I have bumped into you… Rookie, don’t play in the square if you can’t handle it. So annoying.”

The boy stood with his hands on his hips, grumbling for a while, then his gaze fell on Mei Fang.

“By the way, why do you… seem a bit familiar?”

The boy suddenly realized, “You’re Mei Fang, right? I remember you, the one who wet the bed in kindergarten and washed your butt in front of everyone.”

“…”

Mei Fang made a speechless expression, “Who are you? You’ve got the wrong person. I’m not Mei Fang.”

“Du Zihan? You’re Du Zihan, right… Why do you still talk so annoyingly.”

Xia Yuan skated over to check the situation. She was very good at recognizing people and immediately called out Du Zihan’s name.

“You still say you’re not Mei Fang, but you’re still hanging out with Xia Yuan. Are you a boy? You’re always with girls, it’s really shameless.”

“Even if I am Mei Fang…”

Mei Fang raised his head, “You almost bumped into Lin Youxi just now, you should apologize to her.”

“Huh? This girl is Lin Youxi?”

Du Zihan looked at Lin Youxi in disbelief, looking left and right, “Oh my, that filthy little brat from kindergarten, I didn’t expect her to look like this now. People really change a lot when they grow up…”

Du Zihan’s sarcastic tone made everyone’s blood boil. Lin Youxi was about to retaliate, but Mei Fang didn’t give her the chance and stood in front of her.

“Du Zihan, if you continue to be disrespectful to Lin Youxi, I will disrespect you too.”

Du Zihan’s face turned red, looking furious and wanting to hit Mei Fang, but he noticed that Mei Fang was half a head taller than him and suddenly remembered the fear he had when Mei Fang used to dominate him.

“You love hanging out with girls, you have no masculinity at all. I won’t argue with a sissy like you.”

Du Zihan continued, “In the end, losers like you shouldn’t skate in the square. Can’t you practice on the side?”

“If you want to speed skate, go skate at the ice rink. The cultural square is a place for everyone to have fun together. Why can’t we practice here?”

Xia Yuan supported the argument, “Du Zihan, you’re already in fourth grade, can’t you stop being so bossy like in kindergarten? The square is not your family’s property.”

“Who told you I’m in fourth grade!” Du Zihan proudly said, “I repeated a grade, so now I’m only in third grade. Didn’t expect that, did you? Stupid girl.”

“You…”

Xia Yuan was speechless and couldn’t hold back her tears. She had become strong, but this time she couldn’t help but cry, “Why do you always insult people…”

Mei Fang was not originally a brave and aggressive person, but this brat was asking for it, and Xia Yuan was about to cry from being insulted. He really couldn’t let it go without teaching him a lesson.

“Hey, Du Zihan, since you think you’re so good, let’s have a competition.”

Mei Fang said seriously, “If I win, you have to admit that you’re a loser and apologize to Lin Youxi.”

“I’d love to! If I win, you have to call me dad from now on, how about that?”

“What should I call you? I didn’t hear clearly. Mom or…”

“Dad!”

“Okay, good boy!”

Mei Fang successfully made Lin Youxi and Xia Yuan laugh, while Du Zihan’s face turned pale and then red. His blood was boiling.

“Mei Fang, you’ll die today!”
