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

Since coming back from the bathroom room, Mei Fang had been busy writing something during break time.

Seeing him preoccupied, Lin Youxi felt a bit concerned and reached out to pat Mei Fang’s back.

“Are you still struggling with what to give Yuan Yuan for her birthday? If you really can’t think of anything, I can help you out.”

Mei Fang looked quite happy. “I’ve got it, I’ve got it! I used to just buy gifts for her directly, but this time I want to try making something myself.”

“Handmade? Are you going to make a thousand origami cranes or lucky stars? I can help with that.”

“It’s not those. It’s…”

Mei Fang smiled slightly. “Since I want to give something heartfelt, I’ll give Yuan Yuan a poem I wrote in my early years!”

Students of this age have a habit of collecting beautiful writings. Whether they are sentimental or passionate, boys and girls, they always show off their embarrassing literary talent. Many examples of exchanging self-written poems were circulating within the class, so Lin Youxi didn’t find it too strange.

“So… how’s your poem coming along?”

Mei Fang held the letter and deliberately looked pensive. “Do you think this poem is suitable for Yuan Yuan? It wasn’t originally written for her—it was an improvisation, so it might sound a bit strange when read.”

“Let me see.”

Lin Youxi quickly took the poem from Mei Fang’s hand.

Showing the poem he wrote to Lin Youxi was actually a bit beyond Mei Fang’s expectations, but he knew that the more evasive he was, the more he would make Lin Youxi speculate, so he opted for a more open approach.

Looking at the poem, Lin Youxi, who usually had an indifferent expression, suddenly had a bright look in her eyes.

“Ah Fang, you didn’t… copy this from somewhere else, did you?”

“Of course not. If you don’t believe me, look it up online.”

“You’ve written this poem really well. Yuan Yuan will definitely be happy…” Lin Youxi touched the words on the letter, “But your handwriting is messy, and the paper doesn’t look good. As a birthday gift, Yuan Yuan might not appreciate it.”

After thinking for a while, Lin Youxi said, “How about this… I’ll help you rewrite it.”

Oh, there’s such a good thing?

Mei Fang immediately nodded, “Then I’ll trouble you——”

“But… it’s not without conditions.”

Lin Youxi rested her chin on her hand, looking at Mei Fang. “Next year, on my birthday, I don’t want to receive a small gift you bought.”

“You…do you want me to write a poem for you?”

Lin Youxi nodded, “I want you to write a different one.”

“That’s easy. With my literary skills, I can write one for you right now.”

“I don’t want one written now. I want you to write it at that time.”

Lin Youxi pursed her lips and shook her head with a smile, “And it has to be as good as the poem you wrote for Yuan Yuan.”

“Alright!”

Mei Fang and Lin Youxi were engrossed in their lively conversation.

While it was a very pleasant scene to witness, Yue Xinyi on the side felt a burning sensation in her heart and stomach.

But why, why is it like this…

For the first time, there’s a pair of childhood sweethearts that I can enthusiastically support.

For the first time, I can offer my assistance to a pair of childhood sweethearts splendidly.

Two happy things coincided.

It should have brought me more happiness.

But why is it like this…

My assistance ended up helping the childhood sweetheart next door!

Yue Xinyi couldn’t believe that Mei Fang was actually preparing a birthday gift for Xia Yuan!

Although Yue Xinyi was a fan of childhood sweetheart romance, she wasn’t very familiar with Xia Yuan, so the ship she was supporting was undoubtedly Mei Fang and Lin Youxi.

But now, our Youxi was helping Mei Fang write a poem for Xia Yuan—like a defeated puppy…

Ah! It’s the situation I hate the most!

Sobs…

Evil! Mei Fang, you deserve to perish!

How could you do such a thing without conscience!?

At this moment, Mei Fang was entirely focused on the poem Lin Youxi was transcribing, completely oblivious to the terrifying murderous intent radiating from Yue Xinyi nearby.

“This way it will be fine…” Lin Youxi carefully folded the written poem and handed it to Mei Fang.

“During the afternoon break, go to the store outside and buy a pink envelope to put it in and give it to Yuan Yuan.”

“Huh?” Mei Fang scratched his head, “Wouldn’t that be like a love letter? We’re just middle school students, we shouldn’t have that kind of thing.”

“It’s just packaging… you can write ‘Happy Birthday Yuan Yuan’ on it.”

“Then you write it for me.”

“Alright…”

Lin Youxi nodded.

On the way home after the evening self-study, Xia Yuan happily shared the interesting things she encountered at school and showed the photo booth pictures taken with Peng Xue. Mei Fang and Lin Youxi, each with their own thoughts, appeared relatively calm. Xia Yuan didn’t seem to mind and reminded the two:

“Tomorrow is my birthday, and I’ve already ordered the birthday cake. Where do you think we should go to celebrate?”

“Isn’t it usually at your house?”

“Well… I thought about changing things up a bit.” Xia Yuan asked Mei Fang with a smile. “Is Aunt Mei going to be at home tomorrow? If not, we can have the birthday party at your house.”

“Is it just the three of us? If you invite Peng Xue or someone else, won’t Ah Fang’s place be too small?”

Xia Yuan shook her head. “I didn’t ask Xiaoxue to give me a gift because I didn’t invite her… After all, birthdays are very, very important special for the three of us. I definitely want to celebrate it only with us three.”

Mei Fang nodded. “Yes, now that you mention it, it reminded me that it’s the only day we can celebrate with only the three of us. I’ll send Xiaoya to Grandma’s house that day to avoid her smearing Yuan Yuan’s cake all over my face.”

“Hey, Ah Fang, why will you do that? Why are you intentionally excluding Xiaoya? As her older brother, how can you do this…”

Xia Yuan smiled warmly and said, “Xiaoya is your sister, of course she should celebrate with us.”

“Alright, as long as you and Youxi don’t mind her. This sister of mine is really annoying. I just can’t understand why there are so many sister-complex characters in anime.”

“Xiaoya is lively and cute, isn’t that a good thing?” Lin Youxi suddenly interjected.

Mei Fang and Xia Yuan couldn’t help but shake their heads together at this sudden remark.

“Someday, I’ll let you take care of Xiaoya for a day, and you’ll understand!”

“That’s true… Kids grow up and become difficult to handle.”

Experimental Middle School’s first-year students have weekends off. So Mei Fang didn’t have the habit of studying at Xia Yuan’s house on Fridays. However, that evening, as they were about to part ways at the entrance of the community, Xia Yuan invited Mei Fang to have dinner together and take a walk in the community park afterward

“Hmm…”

Xia Yuan happily bounced along the park path with her hands behind her back, looking very cheerful, while Mei Fang followed behind.

“Be careful, don’t fall.”

“I’m not that clumsy! By the way, Ah Fang, I wanted to talk to you tonight about the birthday gift…”

Xia Yuan suddenly turned around, looked at Mei Fang with her hands behind her back and said, “Although I mentioned before that I wanted a different kind of birthday gift, it was just talk… Actually, as long as it is something from you and Youxi, I will like it.”

Xia Yuan’s voice was clear and sweet.

“To me, your company has always been the best birthday gift.”
