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

For the children living in Baimei County who are still inexperienced, they might never truly understand how precious the summer vacation in the first year of middle school is for them.

Because this is actually their last chance to spend a complete summer vacation from middle school to the end of high school before graduation.

By the time they reach the second year of middle school, they will start attending various remedial classes and extra study sessions organized by their homeroom teacher or the school.

Middle school is actually the period of the most severe differentiation among students because, in small county towns with limited teaching resources, teachers often do not have the capacity to manage or find it difficult to manage the students who are in the middle to lower ranks. Generally, teachers would recommend those students with above-average grades to attend such classes, while those with lower rankings are often left to fend for themselves.

Under such circumstances, those excelling academically strive harder, while students with poor grades continue to decline.

The year between the first year and second year of middle school is the most precious transformation period for each student. For the underperforming students to climb from the lower ranks to the top, they need to break free from the constraints of their original social circle and regain the trust of teachers. This age is the most rebellious, and the need for social recognition is intense, adding considerable pressure.

So Mei Fang was very grateful that Xia Yuan and Lin Youxi survived their first year of middle school.

The significant changes in Lin Youxi during this year were self-evident. She became the class monitor, reconciled with her father, and each accumulation became a reliable foundation for climbing the long stairs to excellence.”

In addition, under Mei Fang’s subtle influence or gentle persuasion, Lin Youxi also developed skills in cooking and coding at a young age. Now she could handle the maintenance of the C Site on her own.

The website could now upload and play some videos, and the Danmaku function also worked normally. However, it was still a small server built on a virtual machine, and the upload speed was so slow that Mei Fang once wanted to give up continuing. Managing it alone was just too challenging without sufficient resources.

However, because Youxi invested a lot of emotions into this website and always considered how to solve and optimize problems, Mei Fang let her continue to tinker with it, just for fun.

Perhaps in the future, when Bitcoin rises or the games he makes earn money, Mei Fang could hire some people to help Lin Youxi operate the C Site. In Mei Fang’s vision, he definitely wouldn’t let Lin Youxi be the head of just the technical department.

As for Xia Yuan, her growth was also rapid. Facing the sudden increase in academic pressure in an unfamiliar environment, she did not succumb. With her strong self-esteem and competitiveness, she diligently solved math problems to catch up with Mei Fang and Lin Youxi, finally catching up steadily in the second half of the school year.

In daily interactions, Xia Yuan encountered for the first time the choice between a friend and childhood friends. Being outgoing, she did not understand the boundaries of social circles, but her appreciation for Mei Fang and Lin Youxi also made her accept Lin Youxi’s perspective, preventing Peng Xue from intruding into their trio of friends.

Mei Fang did not deliberately cultivate Xia Yuan’s skills, as she was naturally talented from a young age. Now, it seemed that Xia Yuan, who had a great interest in music and possessed a good voice and appearance, might have been more suitable for a career as a singer. However, Mei Fang was not very willing. The entertainment industry in China was not a place for someone like her to venture into. Xia Yuan’s current personality was also a bit naive, and Mei Fang worried that she might be taken advantage of if she entered that world. He wanted to find a way to keep Xia Yuan by his side so he could be at ease.

Under Mei Fang’s influence, both Xia Yuan and Lin Youxi have shown a great passion for gaming, something Mei Fang needs to capitalize on in the future.

In the future, by the time Mei Fang reached the third year of middle school, it was the year 2010. At that time, the Unity game engine was officially launching a version that supported the Android platform, marking the beginning of the mobile gaming craze. Mei Fang, as the reborn person who could change destiny, needed to prepare early. He couldn’t be like ordinary kids, indulging in a gaming life, eating, drinking, and playing all day.

Then Xia Yuan dragged Mei Fang to the roller skating rink.

In Baimei County, kids their age loved roller skating because those who did were considered cool. The rink was affordable, allowing them to play all day for just 10 yuan.

Unlike the ceramic tiles in the square, the roller skating rink had wooden platforms of varying heights where everyone could skate around in circles at high speeds. The indoor roller skating rink also played energetic music and had cool neon lights, giving Mei Fang a somewhat old-fashioned sense of trendiness.

“Ah Fang, what are you thinking standing there? I bought a grilled sausage for you. Do you want to eat it now?”

“Why not eat it while it’s hot?”

Mei Fang was about to reach for it when mischievous Xia Yuan pulled it away. She hummed and said, “Open your mouth, let me feed you.”

“Give it to me, I’ll do it myself.”

“I’ll give it to you when you catch up to me! Unless you let me feed you.”

“Hey… it’s dangerous to skate around with food like that!”

Mei Fang’s roller skating skills from his past life were quite good, and this ability was retained after his rebirth. The ability became even more prominent after he turned 13. He skated a few times and quickly caught up to Xia Yuan from behind, grabbing her. By this time, Xia Yuan had already eaten a small piece of the sausage in her hand.

Mei Fang sternly scolded Xia Yuan by knocking on her head.

“You’re becoming more and more mischievous, huh? Still daring to eat while roller skating, aren’t you afraid of falling?”

“My skills are good enough now, it’s totally fine!”

“Don’t you know it’s wrong? Huh?”

Mei Fang pinched Xia Yuan’s face and rubbed it repeatedly.

“Okay okay… I’m sorry, I was wrong…”

Xia Yuan pouted, “I just saw that you and Youxi have been staying at home a lot lately, without any enthusiasm, so I wanted to tease you… Is Youxi not coming today? We agreed to come together.”

“She should be at my place fixing bugs, she’ll come over later.”

“Okay… I’m going to play with Xiaoxue today, did you tell Youxi when you left?”

“I told her, she doesn’t mind. You don’t have to ask Youxi every time you want to hang out with Peng Xue. Youxi isn’t so petty…”

“I didn’t mean that.”

Mei Fang finished the sausage in two or three bites. Xia Yuan, in a position almost in Mei Fang’s embrace, complained:

“Wow, your mouth is so wide! And I took a bite on that sausage already, you know.”

“Why did you have to bring that up?”

“As long as you’re not disgusted, it’s fine.”

Xia Yuan really liked the feeling of leaning on Mei Fang’s shoulder. She was about to get even closer when Mei Fang suddenly put his hand on her shoulder and separated from her.

“Tsk tsk… You two are really affectionate! Don’t you care about the place anymore?”

Peng Xue leisurely passed by the two, with a teasing smile on her face, leaning on the railing.

“Xiaoxue! You came so late, we’ve been waiting for you.”

Xia Yuan slid over to Peng Xue’s side, gently patting her shoulder. Peng Xue smiled and said, “I’m just giving you guys some alone time, I’m very considerate.”

“What’s the big deal? No need to be so discreet.”

Xia Yuan’s face was filled with a hearty smile. “For me and Ah Fang, this level of closeness is normal.”

“Is it really normal…”

Peng Xue smiled and didn’t say much. She looked around, “Lin Youxi didn’t come today?”

“Youxi will be here later.” Mei Fang picked up the topic and then planned to loosen his long-unused muscles. “You guys chat, I’ll go for a few laps.”

“Go ahead, go ahead!”

Skaters at the rink usually habitually skate clockwise along a fixed route, which is a customary practice to avoid collisions.

As a result, Mei Fang, who skillfully slid like doing a moonwalk, effortlessly passed one person after another. His relatively small stature made him particularly agile among the mostly high school skaters.

Xia Yuan and Peng Xue chatted by the railing, watching Mei Fang’s figure as he skated past them from time to time. Peng Xue suddenly exclaimed, “Mei Fang’s skating skills are really amazing.”

“Yeah, right! Our Ah Fang is really amazing.”

“Yuan Yuan, don’t you think… Mei Fang has a great sense of style and charm now?”

“Huh?”

Xia Yuan’s cheerful expression immediately became alert, but Peng Xue was already used to it.

“Oh, come on, I said don’t be so tense. I really don’t have any interest in your little sweetheart. I’m just asking you… don’t you think so?”

“What do I think… about what? The question just now?” Xia Yuan was puzzled.

“Don’t you think your Ah Fang is very handsome?”

“Yeah, my Ah Fang is very handsome, what about it?”

“So, I’m saying…” Peng Xue tucked her hair behind her ears, then took off the rubber band from her wrist and gathered her hair into a ponytail.

“Aren’t you afraid he might be snatched away by someone else?”

“It’s fine, Ah Fang promised me that we’re students now, and we should focus on studying, so he won’t… do anything with other girls.”

Xia Yuan remembered the sweet scenes where she asked Mei Fang for his “Ah Fang’s Super Energy” and couldn’t help but roll up her hair, feeling a bit embarrassed.

“Mei Fang indeed doesn’t seem to be interested in other girls, but…”

Peng Xue, with her hair tied, suddenly leaned in close to Xia Yuan’s ear, whispering a secret between girls.

“I’m not talking about… other girls, you know?”
