Damn it, I'm surrounded by childhood sweethearts-Chapter 647 - 448. Where did the problem occur?_2

"Hehe, alright, alright, I’ll stop messing around, Xiao Xiao, you continue, continue." Xiao Ruawen clasped her hands together, begging for forgiveness and apologizing.

Xia Xiaoxiao glared at her, but quickly returned to her shy self: "It’s just.... just the clothes.... the clothes, cough...."

"Brother Chou Fan stripped off your clothes?" Xiao Ruawen’s pupils dilated.

It was hard to imagine, if Xia Xiaoxiao were lying in her arms naked, and if she turned into a man, could she resist?

"Mhm..." Xia Xiaoxiao blushed, shyly nodding her head in admission.

"What, what, what... Hiss!" Xiao Ruawen sucked in a breath of cold air, "So you two were just on the bed, and nothing happened?"

Asking such detailed questions, how was the burning furnace-like Xia Xiaoxiao supposed to answer?

"It was... just like that time on the rooftop."

The details, Xia Xiaoxiao would rather die than tell.

"That’s it?"

"Brother Fan isn’t impotent, is he?" Xiao Ruawen’s eyes widened like copper bells, unable to imagine, facing a stripped Xia Xiaoxiao, that Brother Fan could actually keep his composure.

Xia Xiaoxiao felt embarrassed, thinking to herself, [He’s not impotent, my hand was aching!]

"You don’t understand."

Xiao Ruawen: ???

[Alright, alright, playing dumb, huh!]

"Did Brother Fan confess his feelings to you?" Xiao Ruawen thought for sure he hadn’t; she was just saying it to tease Xia Xiaoxiao.

Sure enough, the smile on Xia Xiaoxiao’s face froze instantly, and she dejectedly muttered two words: "No."

Seeing her downcast profile, Xiao Ruawen felt once again that she was a terrible person, cursing herself internally.

"Maybe it’s because we’re still young, Brother Fan might be thinking of dating in college, isn’t it said that high school love is puppy love?" She comforted the other.

"Maybe." Xia Xiaoxiao sighed, placing her hand on her forehead and staring blankly at the ceiling.

"Definitely, just think about it... think about it... let me think..." Xiao Ruawen wanted to keep comforting her, but couldn’t come up with any good reasons, her voice getting softer and softer.

The room fell into a brief silence.

Xia Xiaoxiao was lost in thought; she suddenly felt a little curious about what Xu Qingfan was doing on the other side of the wall. Was he sleeping sincerely, or covertly playing computer games?

Or perhaps... had Lin Wanning snuck into his bed again? freewēbnoveℓ.com

"Ruan Wen."

"Huh?"

"I’m here!"

Having suddenly heard Xia Xiaoxiao call out her name, Xiao Ruawen hurriedly responded.

"Do you think... Wanning might have snuck into the bed again?" For some reason, Xia Xiaoxiao felt certain that Lin Wanning had done just that.

"Uh... I think... probably not." Xiao Ruawen blinked frantically, then added, "If you’re suspicious, we can go check Brother Fan’s room."

Silence.

Xia Xiaoxiao rolled over and said, "Forget it."

If she really had done so, it would be even more difficult to say anything, plus her uncle and aunt were still at home.

"Come on~ Brother Fan definitely likes you, Xiao Xiao. Wanning is so clingy, who wouldn’t like her? But it’s like the love for a little sister!" Xiao Ruawen pulled her into her embrace, offering a "magnanimous" comfort.

"Perhaps." Xia Xiaoxiao adjusted her sleeping position, taking a deep breath to feel the motherly warmth; "Even bigger than my mom’s, definitely won’t have to worry about the kids going hungry in the future."

"Alright!"

"I’m kindly comforting you, and you’re making fun of me again!"

Xiao Ruawen pretended to be angry, and soon they were frolicking on the bed again, creating a scene too risqué to describe to others.

Ten minutes later.

"Phew~"

Xia Xiaoxiao and Xiao Ruawen were lying on the bed out of breath, their earlier random thoughts having flown off to who-knows-where.

"Ruan Wen, thank you!" Xia Xiaoxiao turned her head to look at her, saying sincerely.

"Come on~, who are we to each other." Xiao Ruawen also turned her head.

The two exchanged smiles, laughing until their eyelids fluttered, before finally turning their gazes away.

"I’ll just say this once, I definitely support you, Xiao Xiao. If Brother Fan dares to lead you on and ditch you, I’ll break his legs!"

"Break the third leg too!" Xia Xiaoxiao said.

"Break it!" The two exchanged smiles again.

As their gazes met, Xiao Ruawen was the first to look away. Absolutely not because she felt guilty. Absolutely not!

[How could I possibly like Brother Fan, it’s just a bit of a crush, who wouldn’t have a crush on Brother Fan who’s tall, handsome, and outstanding!]

Xiao Ruawen convinced herself that she just felt a bit of affection for Brother Fan, which was perfectly normal. After all, there were so many people at school who liked Xu Qingfan; she was just one of them.

Just as one will encounter twenty thousand people in their life who might be love at first sight, Brother Fan was merely one of her twenty thousand!

"Cough, cough... It’s getting late, Xiao Xiao, I’m going to go back to sleep. Good night, ha." Having clarified her relationship with Xu Qingfan, Xiao Ruawen was ready to sneak away.

"Mm."

"Good night, Ruawen!"

Xia Xiaoxiao looked into her eyes and gave a rare toothy smile.

"Mm-hmm, good night, good night." Xiao Ruawen got off the bed, slipped on her slippers, and scurried off.

Running so fast was definitely not because she felt guilty, but because it was late and she needed to sleep soon or she wouldn’t be able to get up early the next day!

[Spending the night at Brother Fan’s house for the first time; I can’t get up too late and give his parents a bad impression!]

She ran out of the room and closed the door. A nightlight was on in the hallway. Downstairs, she could vaguely hear her younger brother scratching his cage and the pitiful sound of a cat meowing, though they hadn’t heard anything while they were in the room.

[Looks like the room is pretty soundproof,] she thought to herself.

Xiao Ruawen’s room was directly opposite Xia Xiaoxiao’s. All she had to do was take one step forward, reach out, open the door, and she’d be back in her own room.

However, the moment her hand touched the doorknob, her eyes uncontrollably glanced toward Xu Qingfan’s room and across to Lin Wanning’s room.

Suddenly, a strong sense of curiosity arose in Xiao Ruawen: [Could Wanning be inside Brother Fan’s room?]

Once this thought occurred to her, her heartbeat inexplicably quickened.

[Should I go have a look?]

Xiao Ruawen blinked and blinked again, slowly retracting the hand she had placed on the doorknob.

She swallowed hard and tiptoed toward Xu Qingfan’s room.

It was just a two-step distance. No matter how slow she walked, the door to Xu Qingfan’s room was still within reach.

The moment her hand touched the doorknob, Xiao Ruawen’s mind started to race: [If they’re really inside and I barge in, what will I say if I’m caught?]

[What if I see something I shouldn’t?]

[Brother Fan wouldn’t kill me to keep me quiet, would he?]

Xiao Ruawen’s hand slowly pressed down, and even though she was afraid, curiosity overcame her fear.

Suddenly, a hand landed on her shoulder.

"Ah!" Xiao Ruawen was frozen with fear, screaming in a high-pitched voice.

A hand came from behind and covered her mouth, and the scream abruptly stopped.

The two tacitly maintained this position for over a minute, ensuring no one came out from the rooms before they both exhaled in relief.

The hand from behind withdrew from her mouth, and Xiao Ruawen also withdrew her hand from the doorknob, turning around to see, if not Zhang Yiyi who had just come out of Lin Wanning’s room!

"Yiyi?" She wore an expression of complete surprise.

"What are you doing?" Zhang Yiyi was not surprised, her face full of suspicion.

"Ah... I... I, I, I... Would you believe me if I said I got the wrong room?" Xiao Ruawen blinked frantically as if she had been kidnapped.

Zhang Yiyi just stared at her silently, without uttering a word.

"Haha..." Xiao Ruawen gave an awkward laugh, "I just came out of Xiao Xiao’s room. I wanted to make sure you guys were all covered up with blankets, and then I bumped into you, Yiyi."

"Did you also come from Wanning’s room?" her eyes suddenly lit up.

[If Yiyi came from Wanning’s room, doesn’t that mean Wanning isn’t in Brother Fan’s room? I’m a genius!]

Zhang Yiyi looked at her for a long time until Xiao Ruawen felt uncomfortable under her gaze, and finally, she nodded. "Mm."

"Then you should go to bed early too, Yiyi. Good night." Xiao Ruawen patted Zhang Yiyi’s head and quickly slipped back to her own room without stopping.

Zhang Yiyi turned to watch her back until she vanished from the hallway, then retracted her gaze.

She placed her hand on the doorknob to Xu Qingfan’s room and, with a gentle push, found the door unlocked!

Zhang Yiyi: ???
