I have few friends, but many childhood sweethearts.

Chapter 4.4. Three Big Pockets Dominate the Kindergarten
"Here, have some." The snotty-nosed kid in the seat in front of Xu Qingfan turned around and leaned against Xu Qingfan's desk, showing off the chocolate he had just scooped out.

Xu Qingfan quickly leaned back and awkwardly waved his hand, "No need to be polite, you can eat it yourself."

"Oh." The other person didn't seem to mind his lack of romantic understanding and directly put her finger in her mouth and started sucking on it.

"What are you eating?" the snotty-nosed kid's deskmate asked curiously, seeing him eating with relish.

"Wait a minute, I have more, here you go!"

"Yours doesn't taste as good as mine!"

"No way! Let me try yours!"

Xu Qingfan:
[That's more like it! A five-year-old should act like this. Xia Xiaoxiao is a freak!]
Xu Qingfan secretly glanced at Xia Xiaoxiao, who was concentrating on writing her exam paper, and thought to himself.

"What are you looking at? You're not even writing your test paper. Be careful you don't fail!" Xia Xiaoxiao glared at Xu Qingfan and then buried herself in writing her test paper again.

I'm about to start first grade. Every June, the county's experimental primary school organizes entrance exams for eligible children. Children with good grades not only get tuition waivers, but also receive scholarships.

The Experimental Primary School is not a public school, and the tuition alone costs several thousand yuan a year. In an era when the average salary is less than 800 yuan, this can only be described as an exorbitant price.

In their past lives, both Xu Qingfan and Xia Xiaoxiao participated in this entrance exam. Xia Xiaoxiao passed, but he did not.

But for some unknown reason, Xia Xiaoxiao ended up attending the elementary school where Lin Jing worked with him.

When they were in junior high school, the policy of enrolling in schools near their homes had already been implemented, but the top students in the district were still sought after by established prestigious schools. Xia Xiaoxiao, on the other hand, enrolled in the same junior high school as him because she didn't want to be too far from home.

In high school, Xia Xiaoxiao, who could have gone to a provincial key high school, once again applied to the county's key high school on the grounds that it was close to home. Fortunately, Xu Qingfan finally lived up to expectations and performed exceptionally well in the high school entrance examination, barely making it into the county's key high school.

As if by fate, the two were in the same class from kindergarten to high school.

Despite the fact that Xia Xiaoxiao made him wait for three years after three years in his previous life, she was always the guiding light for Xu Qingfan.

Without Xia Xiaoxiao, Xu Qingfan would have graduated from junior high school, let alone later be admitted to the best 985 university in the province.

Fortunately, everything started over. Even if it was just to repay Lin Jing for taking care of him over the years, he would not let Xia Xiaoxiao study abroad again.

"How do you do this problem?" Xia Xiaoxiao spread the test paper on Xu Qingfan's desk and pointed to one of the math problems.

Xu Qingfan chuckled and ruffled the little girl's hair; it felt strangely good to be a teacher.

Xia Xiaoxiao pushed Xu Qingfan's hand away in disgust, glaring at him with her small eyes.

"This question is designed to help you find the pattern. If it only tests addition and subtraction, you can try them one by one."

比如这里3+2=5，5+1=6，6+2=8，规律就是加一加二嘛。”

"I understand now." Xia Xiaoxiao suddenly realized, took the test paper back, and continued working on the questions.

It's a test for transitioning from kindergarten to primary school, with questions like "chicken and rabbit in the same cage" and "finding patterns." No wonder he couldn't pass it in his previous life.

The enrollment quota of a school has always been the most important thing for school leaders.

Kindergartens will publicize how many of their senior students were admitted to the Experimental Primary School this year, and primary schools will also publicize how many of their students were admitted to the top ten in the district for junior high school entrance exams.

This explains the bizarre situation of a kindergarten math class teaching the "chicken and rabbit in the same cage" problem.

However, they are not teaching you how to solve problems using two linear equations in two variables; the method the teacher teaches is more like a brain teaser.

The method involves having all the animals lift two legs, and then dividing the remaining legs by two to get the number of rabbits. Although it still involves division beyond the scope of the curriculum, it is indeed simpler than Xu Qingfan's method of using a linear equation in two variables.

"Ring ring ring——"

"Xu Qingfan, I'm going to get some water. Do you need any? I can help you." After class, Xia Xiaoxiao asked, holding her pink water bottle.

"Hmm?" Xu Qingfan blinked at the other person curiously.

"This is my payment for teaching me how to do the problems," Xia Xiaoxiao said, her eyes wide open.

"Let's go together." Xu Qingfan had nothing to do while sitting, so he took out his family's heirloom Kangshifu iced tea bottle from the drawer.

It's like horse piss at room temperature, but like Guojiao (a famous Chinese liquor) when chilled. It's a pity that the Pro version isn't available yet, otherwise Xu Qingfan would definitely steal his mother's money to buy it all!

The water dispenser at the kindergarten was located next to the toilet. Since he was already there, Xu Qingfan handed a plastic bottle to Xia Xiaoxiao and said, "I'm going to the toilet. Could you get me some cold water?"

"Remember to wash your hands." Xia Xiaoxiao took Xu Qingfan's water bottle with a look of disgust. "Do you believe I can pee from the doorway into the sink?"

"What's so great about that? I can do it too!"

"Then you can't pee as far as I can!"

"I can definitely pee farther than you!"

As soon as he entered, he ran into a pair of lively characters. Fearing he would be caught in the crossfire, Xu Qingfan went into a cubicle to relieve himself.

When I came out after washing my hands, those two clowns were still standing there.

Why aren't you peeing?

"Why don't you pee!"

"I can't pee!"

Xu Qingfan:
After washing her hands and coming out of the restroom, Xia Xiaoxiao was already standing next to the water dispenser waiting for her.

Did you wash your hands?

"I washed them, look if you don't believe me." Xu Qingfan showed Xia Xiaoxiao his wet hands and flicked a drop of water at her when she wasn't looking.

"Xu Qingfan!!!"

Xu Qingfan took off running, but he was obviously no match for the little girl in sneakers, even though he was wearing sandals.

"If you run away again, I'll tell Auntie you cheated me out of my money!" Not long after, Xia Xiaoxiao grabbed his wrist, panting.

The little girl didn't have any means of punishing people, so she reached out and twisted the soft flesh of his waist.

"Hiss~" Xu Qingfan pretended to be in great pain, but actually he didn't feel anything.

"Hmph, let's see if you dare to bully me again!" Seeing that Xu Qingfan was very cooperative, Xia Xiaoxiao said she would forgive him this time.

"I was just letting you have your way." Xu Qingfan put his wet hand on her shoulder and put his arm around Xia Xiaoxiao as they returned to the classroom.

"Hmph!" The little girl pouted haughtily, but did not slap away his hand that was on her shoulder.

As the two approached Class A, Xu Qingfan caught a glimpse of a few kids from the next class lifting up a little girl's skirt.

As the saying goes, enemies are destined to meet. He recognized the person who was laughing the loudest – wasn't that the chubby kid from yesterday?
He shoved the water bottle into Xia Xiaoxiao's hand and rushed inside without saying a word.

He delivered a groin kick without hesitation.

Faintly, Xu Qingfan heard the sound of an egg cracking.

The chubby boy was struck by misfortune and instantly lost his fighting ability. His expression turned ferocious as he crawled on the ground like a maggot.

Xu Qingfan did the same thing again, kicking the remaining two men once more.

Three fresh, hot maggots soon appeared on the ground.

Xu Qingfan grew angrier the more he thought about it, grabbed the chubby boy by the collar and shoved him hard across the back, treating the other two the same way.

"If you like lifting girls' skirts so much, why don't you go home and lift your mother's skirt instead!" Xu Qingfan kicked the chubby boy in the stomach again.

The kindergarten kids had never seen anything like this before. Besides the three maggots crying and clutching their crotches on the ground, many other children in the class were also frightened and cried.

Only then did Xu Qingfan have time to check on the girl who had just been bullied.

The little girl's eyes were red, and tears seemed about to spill out at any moment; she looked incredibly pitiful.

"Fuck!"

Xu Qingfan recognized the other person immediately – a classic Chinese beauty: smooth, short hair tied in a small bun. Wasn't this Rikka Takanashi?

Why are you attending kindergarten?
