Rekindling the Youthful Era

Chapter 652 Yan Zhusheng's Small Classroom
The bonfire party is over.

After Zhao Rongjun and Xu Yinghuan officially announced their relationship in front of everyone, they finally stopped hiding it.

Xu Yinghuan always stuck to Zhao Rongjun, and even refused to let go of his hand unless it was necessary.

By around nine o'clock in the evening, everyone had eaten and drunk their fill and went back to their cars to take a shower.

Xu Yinghuan finished her shower in the bathroom humming a song. When she came out and returned to the bedroom, she found that Qiao Xinyan was missing.

Just when she was about to go out to look for someone with a puzzled look on her face, Yan Zhusheng walked in from outside with pajamas in her arms.

"Zhu Sheng? What are you doing?" Xu Yinghuan asked with a surprised look on her face.

"I'll sleep here with you tonight." Yan Zhusheng closed the bedroom door and began to change into pajamas.

Xu Yinghuan was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help asking: "Where is Xin Yanren?"

"Xixi said she wanted to sleep with Xinyan today, so it's my turn to sleep with you." Yan Zhusheng said this as he climbed onto the bed and covered himself with a quilt.

Xu Yinghuan didn't think much about it, and followed him to lie on the bed next to Yan Zhusheng, smiling happily and teasing: "Could it be that you wanted to sleep with me and then lied to me that it was Xixi who took Xinyan away?"

"You think too much." Yan Zhusheng glanced at her and said expressionlessly, "It was originally my turn to sleep with Li Luo today."

"But if Xixi wants to sleep with Xinyan, Senior Sister will have no place to sleep."

"So I switched with my senior. Today, she will sleep with Li Luo, and tomorrow it will be my turn to sleep with Li Luo."

"..." Xu Yinghuan fell silent for a moment. Although she had known about the strange relationship between the four of them for a long time, hearing Yan Zhusheng speak of taking turns sleeping with them as if it was a matter of course still shocked her worldview. However, she couldn't help but ask subconsciously, "What about the day after tomorrow?"

"Of course the day after tomorrow will be Xixi and Li Luo sleeping together."

"You guys are exaggerating..."

Yan Zhusheng glanced at her and gave her a look that said "what's that?"

Then she did not continue the topic, and turned to Xu Yinghuan and asked: "So your current progress is not even enough to kiss?"

"How could it be so fast!" Xu Yinghuan said with a red face, "We have only been together for less than half a month."

"Besides, he and Xinyan have been working part-time at KFC during this period, so we both don't have much time to date."

"Until today when we went out on a trip, this should be considered our first official date."

"Oh." Yan Zhusheng nodded, and then as someone who had experienced it, he recommended it to her, "Then you can find a chance to try it. Kissing is very comfortable."

"Don't take it for granted, okay?" Xu Yinghuan said speechlessly, "This is my first kiss, I can't be so casual about it."

"You can hug me more." Yan Zhusheng continued to share her intimate experience with her best friend, "Aren't you wearing hot pants today? You can let Zhao Rongjun touch your legs. Boys like this."

Xu Yinghuan: "...please stop giving me bad advice, okay? Ah Jun is different from Li Luo. He's so nervous just holding hands now, let's just take it slow."

"but……"

"Come to think of it, I have to thank you. If it weren't for you, Zhu Sheng, I wouldn't have dared to confess to him so early."

"Ah?" Yan Zhusheng was confused when he heard this, "What does it have to do with me?"

"Because you are usually very brave." Xu Yinghuan showed an expression of emotion, "You don't know that Li Luo, Xixi and I were classmates in junior high school."

"When they were in junior high school, they had a very good relationship."

"We girls have always privately felt that Xixi must like Li Luo very much, especially since they are childhood sweethearts, this relationship is even more incredible."

"After you entered high school, you were able to snatch Li Luo from Xixi."

"Well... although it's not completely snatched away, I feel that if you hadn't been so proactive, Li Luo would definitely be Xixi's alone."

"I used to think that girls should be more reserved when it comes to dating."

"But after being inspired by you, I thought about Ah Jun's personality. If I wait for him to confess his feelings, how long will it take?"

"That's why I decided to take the initiative!"

After hearing what Xu Yinghuan said, Yan Zhusheng suddenly showed an expression of enlightenment, then stretched out his hands and clapped for her, indicating that she had learned well.

She is worthy of being her best friend.

"By the way." After Xu Yinghuan finished explaining her mental journey, she couldn't help but ask curiously, "You kept asking me, what's the current progress between you and Li Luo?"

When Yan Zhusheng heard her ask this, he immediately raised his eyebrows and counted carefully on his fingers: "We have hugged, kissed, touched, and done everything we should do."

"How amazing." Xu Yinghuan's eyes sparkled as she exclaimed in a low voice.

But Yan Zhusheng felt that this was not shocking enough, so he rolled his eyes and took out a small plastic square from his pajama pocket: "And this."

Xu Yinghuan didn't recognize it at first. It was only after she got closer and looked at the logo and brand on it that she realized what it was.

Then he was suddenly shocked, his face turned red, and he stammered, unable to speak.

Yan Zhusheng saw the expression on her best friend's face and nodded in satisfaction. She took back her strategic nuclear weapon and said, "I have a few tricks I learned from my senior sister and I can teach them to you for free."

"What knowledge?"

"Bed knowledge."

"…Then I probably won't be able to use it for the time being."

……

At the same time, in another RV.

Because he had written a draft yesterday and this incident happened again today, Xu Youyu didn't write any more.

After being arranged to take turns by Xixi and Zhusheng, Xu Youyu took a shower early and went to sleep on the bed at the rear of the car with Li Luo.

The two of them were lying together, and it was rare that they didn't do anything bad, and their minds were not on this.

Xu Youyu turned his head to look at Li Luo, and seeing that he looked a little heavy, he couldn't help but smile and turned sideways to smooth his brows: "What are you thinking about? Your face looks like it's about to drip."

"I just feel like...if I had intervened a little bit before, this wouldn't have happened."

Since Li Luo's rebirth, he has rarely encountered anything that makes him feel embarrassed.

At the beginning, I helped Zhao Rongjun relieve his fear of women intentionally or unintentionally, but it doesn’t mean that just because we are brothers, we have to help him with everything.

For Li Luo, he had few friends in his previous life. The only true brother he had been close to since childhood was Zhao Rongjun.

If we talk about women, he has several regrets.

As for his brothers, Li Luo’s only regret is probably Zhao Rongjun.

When he was in high school in his previous life, Zhao Rongjun would occasionally pass him some news about Ying Chanxi.

Later, even though he was admitted to Qianjiang University, he never looked down on his childhood friend who went to college to study cooking.

The relationship between the two is always as pure as when they were children. When Li Luo's mother was seriously ill and needed money urgently, Zhao Rongjun lent her money without hesitation. He even quarreled with his wife.

With his dull personality, he had the courage to quarrel with his wife. You can imagine how determined he is.

One might even say that he would still borrow the money even if they got divorced.

In his 35 years of life experience in his previous life, Li Luo had never seen anyone around him who had such a brother.

Oh, no, it seems my dad has some too. Uncle Ying must have borrowed a lot of money back then.

Li Luo couldn't help but smile helplessly when he thought of this: "I just hope that his character can be stronger, so sometimes I don't want to interfere with his choices."

"Isn't this good?" Xu Youyu asked with a smile, "You are his good friend, not his good father. There must be a limit to the help you can give."

"But if I remind Xixi in advance and ask her to tell Xinyan, she will be prepared."

"Or maybe when Xixi told me that Xinyan had this plan, I should have told her in advance that Huanhuan also had this idea..."

"And then?" Xu Youyu laughed, "Won't Xinyan keep looking forward to the confession, and then she won't get hurt?"

"Or do you think that if we had reminded her earlier and let Xinyan confess first, Zhao Rongjun would have been able to be with Xinyan?"

"Then have you ever thought that wouldn't it be Huanhuan who would be sad then?"

“When you choose between two options in a multiple-choice question, it is bound to be an imperfect result.”

Li Luo fell silent, then subconsciously asked: "If there was Sister Yu, would it be the same?"

"I choose not to make a choice." Xu Youyu said with a smile, "It's just that some concepts cannot be easily accepted, unless you can get Xinyan and Huanhuan to agree."

Li Luo: "...Then I wouldn't be that outrageous."

What's more, given Zhao Rongjun's personality, it was really difficult for both of them.

Now it seems that although Qiao Xinyan will be very sad for a while, if Zhao Rongjun can achieve success with Xu Yinghuan, it will be much better than in the previous life.

One should not be too greedy.

"So now someone knows that I'm fine?" Xu Youyu leaned on Li Luo and said with a smile, "Otherwise, your current situation would probably be similar to Zhao Rongjun's."

"Then do I have to repay Sister Youyu?"

"…The best way for you to repay me right now is to take your hand off my butt."

……

The two people on the bed at the rear of the car were chatting on the bed.

On the bed at the front of the car, the atmosphere was very silent.

Qiao Xinyan still looked as if she didn't care and had no effect on him. After she lay down and saw that the atmosphere was becoming increasingly silent, she took the initiative to ask with a smile, "Xixi, where are we going to play tomorrow?"

Ying Chanxi looked at her best friend's smile, but her heart felt as if it was pricked by a needle.

She gently held Qiao Xinyan's hand and whispered, "Xinyan, if you are sad, just cry. Crying will make you feel better."

"Why should we be sad about this?" Qiao Xinyan shook her head and said, "Huanhuan and Jun are a perfect match. Since they are together, of course I wish them the best."

"But, but..." The more Ying Chanxi looked at Qiao Xinyan's calm and composed appearance, the more uncomfortable he felt. He even choked up and couldn't help sobbing softly, "It's all my fault, it's all my fault..."

"If I hadn't suggested you wait until this trip to confess your feelings when you said you wanted to, but had gone to find Zhao Rongjun right away, maybe..."

"Okay, okay, how can I blame you?" Qiao Xinyan quickly hugged Ying Chanxi to comfort him, "In the end, it was my own choice. You just gave me a suggestion."

"But..." After being hugged and comforted by her, Ying Chanxi cried even harder. She felt so miserable inside, as if she was the one who had suffered a broken heart.

When she saw Xu Yinghuan officially announce her relationship with Zhao Rongjun...

Seeing Yan Zhusheng standing beside him congratulating...

Then he turned his head to look at Qiao Xinyan who was trying hard to smile...

Finally, I saw the transparent tank that rolled to the bottom of the car...

Ying Chanxi seemed to see himself vaguely.

The loss and sadness, unwillingness and regret made her breathless.

Ying Chanxi felt extremely sad when she thought that Qiao Xinyan was probably suffering a hundred times more than her at this moment.

As she cried, she felt Qiao Xinyan's body trembling slightly.

When she stopped crying and listened carefully, she realized that Qiao Xinyan had been hugging her and crying silently without her noticing.

"New Swallow..."

"Please stop talking...Xixi, please stop talking...This is enough for now..."

"Is this...all right?" Ying Chanxi pursed her lips. After hearing these words, she suddenly felt uncomfortable again and felt suffocated.

An image emerged in her mind.

The picture shows Li Luo and Yan Zhusheng standing in front of a campfire, and the two of them smiled and officially announced their relationship.

She just stood in the shadows, watching the scene with a sad face, but in the end she could only come out with a smile and congratulate her childhood sweetheart on finding love.

When he thought of this scene, Ying Chanxi felt a sharp pain in his heart.

Holding Qiao Xinyan tightly in her arms, Ying Chanxi looked down at her best friend who had already couldn't hold back her tears. She felt a sense of relief for no reason.

When it comes to relationships, Xinyan and I do have a lot in common.

For example, they are more introverted, more reserved in dealing with such matters, and prefer to quietly wait by the side of the person they like...

If that’s the case… at least I’m lucky?
Ying Chanxi suddenly realized this, thinking that her senior sister always liked to steal home, and Zhu Sheng always liked to be intimate with Li Luo in front of her.

But when she really wants to be with Li Luo, the two of them will take the initiative to give up their seats and will not deliberately disturb her.

Obviously this kind of thing is very strange...

But looking at Qiao Xinyan in his arms, Ying Chanxi felt that a shell in his heart that was already full of cracks seemed to be completely shattered.

"Xinyan... do you think... there is still a chance?"

Ying Chanxi said this for no reason.

"Ah?" Qiao Xinyan subconsciously looked up at her, rubbed her slightly red and swollen eyes, and didn't quite understand what Ying Chanxi said.

But Ying Chanxi hesitated, and after careful consideration, he finally shook his head gently: "No, nothing... I was just talking nonsense."
