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

Mei Fang and Lin Youxi rarely have the opportunity to go shopping together because Mei Fang is not accustomed to it. Most of the time, it’s either Xia Yuan inviting Lin Youxi or Xia Yuan arranging for all three of them to go out.

After getting off the bus, the two of them awkwardly discovered that the entrance of Xinchun Supermarket was still closed.

“Aren’t they supposed to open at 8 o’clock? It’s already 8:15.”

Lin Youxi felt a bit frustrated, “Why aren’t these people in a hurry to make money?”

“They are probably still busy with the opening preparations in the morning. Let’s just walk around nearby for now.”

Baimei County is located in the central region of China. Its air is very cold and humid. It was nearing winter at the end of November, and Lin Youxi couldn’t help but sneeze while wrapped in a thick coat.

When girls sneeze, it’s not as exaggerated as boys. Generally, there is a process of【Ah——Choo】 but Lin Youxi’s sneezes always only have the 【Choo】 part and the sound is particularly small, giving off a unique and cute charm.

Mei Fang handed Lin Youxi a tissue and saw a newly opened milk tea shop next to them, so he asked, “Do you want to go there and sit for a while?”

“Yeah, that’s fine.”

Lin Youxi nodded, wiped her nose carefully, folded the tissue into a stack, and threw it into the trash can in front of them.

“Your rhinitis is still the same. It always flares up when the weather changes. Haven’t you been to the hospital for a check-up?”

“My dad took me to see a doctor in Xunyang City before. The doctor said I should wait until I grow up before I can have surgery.”

Lin Youxi walked alongside Mei Fang with her hands in her pockets and her head lowered. “How much does an electric scooter usually cost? Is 3,000 yuan enough?”

“You can definitely afford an electric scooter, but there are good ones and bad ones. It depends on what kind of scooter the supermarket lottery has.”

“I hope it’s not too expensive…”

Lin Youxi and Mei Fang arrived at the milk tea shop. At this time, the shop’s lady was busy cleaning and tidying up. When she saw customers coming, she quickly greeted them with a smile, “Hello… two students, what would you like to drink?”

Mei Fang looked at Lin Youxi and said, “You decide what to drink, and I’ll order it for you.”

“Hmm?”

Lin Youxi shook her head, “Why should you order for me? Today, I’m the one who asked you to accompany me, so of course I’ll treat you.”

“Well… I don’t really have anything specific in mind. I’ll just have what you’re having.”

“If you’re not drinking, then I won’t either.”

Seeing the smile on the milk tea shop lady’s face gradually turning stiff, Mei Fang quickly changed his mind, “Let’s drink, let’s drink, I want a medium-sized red bean milk tea.”

“Me too… a total of eight yuan, right? Please make them hot for us.”

After Lin Youxi paid the bill, she sat next to Mei Fang.

“Why do you have to order the same thing as me?”

She explained, “I don’t know which one tastes better.”

“Didn’t you and Yuan Yuan come to these milk tea shops before?”

“Not often, I don’t have much impression.”

Lin Youxi thought for a moment, “And, haven’t milk tea shops only become more popular in the last year or two? The previous pearl milk tea shops were all small stalls and felt very unhygienic. When I was in elementary school, the boys in our class liked to take the pearls out of the pearl milk tea and throw them against the wall, making the wall wet and sticky, and it’s very disgusting.”

“Hahaha! I do remember that.”

Mei Fang teased, resting his cheek on his hand, “You used to think pearl milk tea was unhygienic back then, but you also ate a lot of potato chips back then, didn’t you?”

“That’s different.”

Lin Youxi smiled slightly, “Potato chips are our precious intangible cultural heritage in Baimei County. We must protect their business and let them continue to be passed down.”

“If you think they’re so delicious, then that’s great.”

“Don’t you also enjoy eating them?”

“I guess so…”

Mei Fang sighed.

In his previous life, he was also a true fan of Baimei County’s potato chips. When he was a child, he always thought that when he had money, he would buy potato chips and eat them to his heart’s content.

However, when he actually had some money and came back to buy potato chips for dozens of yuan, ate a few bites, and then put them down, sighing, “Ah, they don’t taste as good as they did when I was a child.”

It seemed that these most delicious memories only stayed in his childhood.

Mei Fang got lost in his thoughts about his previous life’s memories, and only came back to his senses when he noticed that Lin Youxi had been watching him all along.

“What are you thinking about, Ah Fang?”

“Well… I’m thinking about the past.”

“Thinking about the past, why do you have such a sad expression?”

Lin Youxi pondered, “Didn’t we have a happy childhood?”

“You don’t understand, boys’ thoughts are complicated.”

“…”

Lin Youxi frowned and thought for a while, “That seems like something a girl would say.”

“Hmph, but I haven’t heard you say it before.”

Lin Youxi pouted and gave Mei Fang an annoyed look. At this time, the milk tea was already prepared and the lady brought it to Mei Fang and Lin Youxi’s table.

Then she also handed over a small notebook with heart-shaped sticky notes.

“What is this for?” Lin Youxi asked in confusion.

“It’s for our milk tea shop’s wall of thoughts. You can stick all kinds of opinions and ideas about our shop, evaluations of the taste, or even your own thoughts that you want to keep as a memory on this wall. These are all left by previous customers, you can take a look.”

“I see…”

Suddenly, Mei Fang realized that this place is relatively close to Baimei No.1 High School, and this milk tea shop probably gets a lot of high school students as customers.

After being reminded by the shop’s lady, Lin Youxi held the warm milk tea in her hand and curiously looked at the contents on the stickers. There were praises for the excellent taste of the milk tea in the shop, as well as copied melancholic quotes from literature, such as:

【The sky doesn’t have your shadow, but you once flew through my colorful world. That faint shadow is my only trace to pursue you at this moment.】

Of course, there were also many inexplicable original melancholic quotes, such as:

【I am looking up at the bright sadness in the sky at a 45-degree angle — by Huan Longshang.】

Mei Fang saw Lin Youxi looking at the stickers with great interest and couldn’t help but ask curiously, “Since you’re so interested, do you want to write something too?”

Lin Youxi shook her head, “I don’t have anything special to write right now. When Yuan Yuan and I come next time, we’ll write together.”

“Can we both us write something?”

“No, I don’t want to.”

Lin Youxi shook her head, “The ones written by boys and girls together on here are all from couples. I haven’t seen anything from childhood friends.”

“Oh…”

Mei Fang showed a helpless expression.

Seeing his appearance, Lin Youxi suddenly called out to him for no reason.

“Ah Fang!”

“What’s up?”

“Nothing, I just wanted to call you.”

Lin Youxi narrowed her eyes and smiled sweetly, a smile that she rarely showed in front of others.

“Haha… Is it because you don’t call me like this during school and you’re not used to it?”

“Yeah, kind of.”

After Lin Youxi finished speaking, she lowered her head and drank her milk tea with the straw. Mei Fang propped his cheek and stared at Lin Youxi for a while, then also lowered his head to drink his milk tea.

“This milk tea tastes good.”

“Yeah, it really does! Next time, I’ll bring Yuan Yuan to drink together.”

After staying for a while, the two saw that the Xinchun Supermarket in the distance finally opened its rolling door.

“It’s about time, let’s go to the mall and see what the electric scooter looks like.”
