Damn it, I'm surrounded by childhood sweethearts-Chapter 436 : 316. Revisiting the old place
Xu Qingfan's hands had unknowingly encircled the shoulders of the two girls, and when a gust of wind blew, he tightened his grip slightly.
It was rare to have a morning off from school where they could just relax, listen to the wind, watch the rain, and calm their restless hearts for a moment.
Lin Wanning and Zhang Yiyi both simultaneously made a shrugging motion, which Xu Qingfan noticed and said, "Let's go home, being out in the wind for too long isn't good."
"Yes," the two girls obediently nodded.
The rain seemed endless, like the math problems with tanks filling and draining simultaneously, never pausing for a moment.
Lin Wanning turned on the TV, which was showing the morning news on Jade Channel, the bustling noise dispelling the chill of the living room and adding a bit of liveliness to the house.
The little brother cat emerged from some corner, snuggling at his feet and acting coquettishly.
Xu Qingfan picked up the cat and couldn't help but think as he stroked its head: [Even my little brother knows to snuggle up to me, Xia Xiaoxiao is not even as good as a cat!]
Sure enough, when you held resentments against someone, you could only see their flaws, regardless of where you looked.
He put the cat back down, and it immediately took refuge disdainfully under the table.
It was only just eight in the morning, and without school, they really didn't know how to pass this long morning.
Lin Wanning sat cross-legged on the sofa, continuously flipping channels, while Zhang Yiyi lay on her pristine thighs, playing with her smartphone.
Both were only wearing their cool nightgowns, which Xu Qingfan found extremely pleasant to the eye, it was indeed so for little Xu Qingfan.
[If only they were wearing those maid outfits from that time...]
He quickly dismissed the perilous thought, coughing twice before speaking, "Ahem—I'm going for a run, and when the rain stops, we can go out and stroll."
"Yeah, go Brother Qingfan!ヾ(◍°∇°◍)ノ゙" Lin Wanning cheered energetically, raising her right hand.
Zhang Yiyi looked up at him, smiled softly, and quietly pulled up her nightgown a bit.
Unfortunately, Xu Qingfan didn't notice; he just nodded and turned to enter the gym.
A moment later, his voice came from inside, "If you guys feel sleepy, go take a nap upstairs, and I'll call you when the rain stops."
"Got it!"
Lin Wanning and Zhang Yiyi exchanged glances and simultaneously got up from the sofa.
The two turned off the TV and sneakily went back upstairs.
"What should we do now, Yiyi? Brother Qing Fan really seems upset with Xiaoxiao," Lin Wanning flopped onto the soft bed, clutching a pillow pitifully.
Zhang Yiyi lay beside her, poking her nose tip with a finger, "Brother is kinda weird, a bit."
Lin Wanning nodded along, "I think so too, he's normally so gentle, but this morning it was like he became a different person."
"Yeah," Zhang Yiyi also nodded, suddenly changing the subject, "But if Xiaoxiao continues like this, Brother definitely won't like her anymore."
"But..." Lin Wanning hesitated, "but I always feel like we're like the bad mistresses in TV dramas."
"What if Xiaoxiao tells Brother Qing Fan's mom about us, won't auntie think I'm that kind of indecent bad girl, still crawling into Brother Fan's bed at my age?" This was Lin Wanning's biggest concern.
Zhang Yiyi comforted her by rubbing her head, "Wanning is not a bad girl, because we've been like this with Brother since we were kids, and just haven't changed it growing up, auntie will definitely understand."
Still, Lin Wanning felt guilty about the situation, as if she was the bad girl in a drama, deliberately causing a rift between the leading man and woman.
If only the term "green tea" hadn't been invented yet, Lin Wanning would have felt like her actions were similar to that, even though she never had such intentions.
"I still want everyone to get along well, and not fight," she pouted as she spoke.
Zhang Yiyi flicked the girl's rosy lips with her finger, thinking about Brother's angry face when he found out Xia Xiaoxiao planned to tattle to his mom, and she felt troubled too.
Moreover, just as Lin Wanning had said, if Xia Xiaoxiao really went tattling to the parents, couldn't she foresee that Lin Wanning would consequently have a negative image in her aunt's mind?
Even fool Lin Wanning could think of this, Zhang Yiyi didn't believe Xia Xiaoxiao hadn't considered this layer—that kind of betrayal of a good friend was really despicable.
Zhang Yiyi silently negated this act in her mind; anyway, if Xia Xiaoxiao really did so, she felt their relationship could never return to how it was before.
[I hope Xiaoxiao doesn't do such a thing...]
"Maybe Xiaoxiao was just speaking in anger, she'll be better after waking up," she reassured while resting her head against the girl's forehead and smiling.
"Then my wish for my fifteenth birthday is that after waking up, everyone can get along really well!" Lin Wanning counted to the sixth finger before stopping.
"Yes!"

They smiled at each other and slowly closed their eyes, hoping that when they awoke, their small family of six would reconcile.
...
"Nine hundred ninety-nine, one thousand!"
After finishing the last set of skipping rope, Xu Qingfan collapsed onto the yoga mat, drenched in sweat.
He took off his shirt, revealing his broad back and sharply defined abs, and the sweat-absorbing cotton T-shirt quickly dried the sweat on his body, leaving a deep, dark print where his palm had just rested on the yoga mat.
"Damn Xia Xiaoxiao!" Xu Qingfan crumpled the T-shirt into a ball and tossed it into the air, striking it powerfully with his fist when it fell into place, venting his frustrations.
