Damn it, I'm surrounded by childhood sweethearts-Chapter 415 - 305. What if two children want to marry Xiao Fan at the same time?

Why did he offer to take Wanning and Yiyi home alone?

Because Xu Qingfan remembered what Wu Lingyu had told him that day, "Brother Fan, you can ask Wanning what she wants for herself!"

For a long time, he seemed to always impose his own ideas of what was good on the five girls.

It was fine to do so when they were little, as back then, they were just immature primary school students, little children, with an older brother like Xu Qingfan looking after them, ensuring they wouldn’t stray on their path of growth.

But now, all five of them had grown up, their personal beliefs gradually forming, and they had started to have their own thoughts.

Interacting with them the same way as when they were children was clearly not appropriate anymore.

Just as Lin Wanning had said in her heartfelt video that day, crying, "Who could suddenly grow up just like that, duck, I still want to be like when I was little, is that okay...?"

Every time he thought of the girl crying in that video, Xu Qingfan felt someone tugging at his heart.

He, with the mindset of an adult, might think it was nothing, but Lin Wanning didn’t have his "Golden Finger" of rebirth experience, facing Xu Qingfan’s sudden suggestion that the two of them change their way of interacting, the girl could only think it was her fault, upsetting Brother Qingfan.

Xu Qingfan did not want to become that type of detestable China-style parent who parades under the banner of doing what’s best for their child but actually does things that harm the child.

After Xia Xiaoxiao went upstairs and threw down the keys to the electric bike, Xu Qingfan caught them neatly and beeped the bike parked downstairs.

"Come on, let’s take you back home," he said, twirling the key ring to the two girls.

"Okay!"

Little White, taking advantage of their conversation, had already obediently settled itself on the bike’s carrier, swaying its dog head to signal for the three to hurry up.

Once Lin Wanning and Zhang Yiyi were both seated on the bike, Xu Qingfan beeped the horn twice, and the electric bike wobbly left Lianhua Courtyard.

Xia Xiaoxiao and Wu Lingyu watched the scene from the third-floor corridor, waiting until the three had completely disappeared before smiling at each other and returning home.

At seven in the evening, it gradually grew dark.

In the city’s night sky, no stars could be seen, streetlights hung directly overhead, like mini-suns.

The neon lights and headlights were so bright they dazzled, Lin Wanning naturally wrapped her arms around Xu Qingfan’s waist, resting her head on his back for a nap.

Behind her, Zhang Yiyi gripped the iron frame of the seat, tilting her head back to let the evening wind brush her cheeks.

"By the way, Wanning," Xu Qingfan suddenly spoke.

"What is it, Brother Qingfan?" the girl asked, poking her head out and leaning on his shoulder.

Zhang Yiyi also diverted her gaze from the scenery and focused on their conversation.

"Isn’t your birthday coming up soon? Is there any special birthday gift you want? Yiyi, you better think ahead too; it’ll be your turn in October."

A dump truck drove by, stirring up a gust of dust, causing Xu Qingfan to squint.

"Ah?" Lin Wanning inadvertently opened her mouth wide, predictably getting a mouthful of dust.

"Spit spit spit~"

Suppressing a laugh, Zhang Yiyi considerately passed her a tissue, waiting for her to spit out all the dirt in her mouth before Lin Wanning spoke again, "Can I ask for anything, Brother Qingfan?"

Xu Qingfan pondered for a while, then replied, "Yes, you can ask for anything, no matter how big or small; the birthday star is the biggest after all."

Lin Wanning’s eyes immediately brightened, she turned her head and exchanged a glance with Zhang Yiyi, the girl giving her a cute wink.

"Then I... I haven’t decided yet, Brother Qingfan, can you come to play with me and Yiyi tomorrow? I’ll tell you then!"

The words she blurted out about wanting to sleep with Brother Qingfan were swiftly retracted by Lin Wanning, aware that he would definitely not agree to such a request, needing to think of a compromise.

[And I can use this excuse to get Brother Qingfan to come over tomorrow, teehee~ I’m so clever!]

Lin Wanning held her face in her hands, giggling silently.

Xu Qingfan, busy driving, was unaware of the girls’ little schemes behind his back; after nudging the restless dog with his foot, he continued, "And how about you, Yiyi? Is there a special birthday gift you want?"Zhang Yiyi shook her head, then remembered that Xu Qingfan couldn’t see, and said, "Haven’t decided."

Actually, it wasn’t that she hadn’t decided, but rather the gift she wanted the most had already been promised by Xu Qingfan; he was going to take Yiyi on a Ferris wheel ride during the National Day!

"Well, you both think about it, even if you want the stars in the sky, I’ll try to pluck them for you."

"Okay!" The two said in unison, then couldn’t help laughing together.

Lin Wanning and Zhang Yiyi looked up at the same night sky, reaching out as if to pluck the stars.

[If plucking stars is possible, then can Yiyi and I both marry Brother Qingfan?]

[I don’t want the stars in the sky, just wish that Brother could always stay by me and Wanning’s side.]

...

After taking the two all the way to their doorstep, Xu Qingfan finally turned around to head back.

"Brother Qingfan, don’t forget to come over tomorrow!"

"Brother, be careful on the road!"

Lin Wanning and Zhang Yiyi stood at the gate of their yard, waving as they watched the cycling boy depart.

"Got it!" The fresh evening breeze brushed his face as Xu Qingfan called back without turning his head.

Only after he had disappeared did the two, hand in hand, walk back into the house.Zhang Chunxue was out of town on business this week, so Zhang Yiyi was staying at Lin Wanning’s house these days.

"Back so soon, let’s wash our hands and have dinner." Wen Wanqing and Lin Qiaoshan had cooked dinner early and were waiting in the living room watching TV as the two came back.

"Yes, Brother Qingfan just dropped us off!"
