After rebirth, I found out that I have a childhood sweetheart

"If you want to bring this up... then I can only lose to you."

Mei Fang said that she was reluctant, but she felt warm in her heart.

What sin did I commit in my previous life that I couldn't play with such a good fate...

I was so ignorant when I was 5 years old!

"Let's go find Youxi and ask her about her wishes. Is she still writing code at your house?"

"Well... she is at my house, but she is doing other things. I asked her to help me supervise Xiaoya to do her homework. In return, I will accompany her to the bookstore to buy books related to programming later."

"Ah!" Xia Yuan was shocked after hearing this, "You actually let Youxi suffer this kind of pain, why didn't you tell me earlier."

"Why should I tell you earlier? And look at your gloating expression. Are you really sympathizing with You Wexi and standing up for her?"

"Okay, okay... I'm going to reveal my cards!"

Xia Yuan took Mei Fang's arm and walked towards his home. His amused expression was clear on the paper: "Let's see Youxi get pissed off by Xiaoya. I can't wait!"

Chapter 101 It is impossible for us to separate

Xia Yuan followed Mei Fang back home and carefully opened the door frame. When they opened the door, the scene they saw was unforgettable for both of them.

Xiaoya, the younger sister who has been thinking about getting closer to science all day long, is now sitting on a small stool beside the coffee table, doing her homework diligently. Her serious expression is like the obedient little girl in the illustrations of the ideology and morality course; and Lin Youxi is sitting next to her, staring at her homework book meticulously, and occasionally pointing out a few words.

"I just explained this problem to you. You should know how to solve it, right? It's just chickens and rabbits in the same cage."

"Sister Youxi, I'm still in the third grade. I haven't learned the fourth grade chicken and rabbit cage game..."

Mei Ya had a tearful expression on her face, and Lin Youxi hurriedly apologized.

"Then I will explain it to you again in the simplest way."

"You've told me this 10 times, but I really don't understand!"

"Then I'll tell you 11 more times. If you don't understand something, be sure to ask me."

"Alright, alright, take a break. Sister Youxi, do you want to see me turn into a demon—"

"Finish your homework first and don't do anything else." Lin Youxi tapped the notebook.

Little Mei Ya, who was about to cry but had no tears, was lamenting how miserable her life was. When she looked up and saw her brother Mei Fang and sister Xia Yuan sneaking in, she immediately jumped up excitedly.

"Yuan-Yuan-Sister-Sister-"

Mei Ya dragged out a long tone and threw herself into Xia Yuan's arms, "I really miss you."

"What do you want from me... You just want me to help you with your homework, right?"

Xia Yuan stroked Mei Ya's head and pouted at her, "I don't want to be beaten by your brother anymore."

"Sister Yuanyuan, you are lying. You looked very happy when my brother beat you."

"Hey, don't talk nonsense!"

Mei Fang went straight to Mei Ya's seat and sat down to look at her homework book.

"How's her homework?"

Lin Youxi nodded: "It's good, Xiaoya works very hard."

Mei Fang was surprised: "...You seem to be in a normal mental state?"

Lin Youxi frowned and said, "Why is it abnormal? Do you think Xiaoya is playful? I think she's fine. She listens to me quite well."

"Sister Youxi, don't you feel that... you have become a different person since you entered junior high school?"

Mei Ya protested in Xia Yuan's arms, "I feel like you've become much scarier!"

This was the first time that Lin Youxi heard such an evaluation from her sister Mei Ya, whom she treated as her own daughter. She rarely showed sadness, and the disappointment in her expression was written on her face. Seeing this, Mei Fang quickly pulled her back:

"That's because your sister Youxi is the class monitor in school. She is second only to the class monitor and even the class teacher has to listen to her sometimes. So she naturally exudes authority. But no matter what, your sister Youxi has loved you very much since you were a child. Don't forget that!"

"It turns out that Sister Youxi is now the class monitor! Sister Youxi loves me, of course I haven't forgotten..."

Mei Ya grabbed Xia Yuan's clothes and muttered, "I... I think I still need some time to adapt."

"I think so."

Lin Youxi calmed down after hearing this. She smiled and nodded, and extended her hand to Meiya. "In that case... let's continue studying together, Xiaoya! Sister Youxi will take you to explore the ocean of knowledge!"

"I—don't—want—whoa!"

After helping Mei Ya finish the torture of homework, Mei Fang and Xia Yuan found Lin Youxi and told her that they wanted to learn guitar together.

Lin Youxi was surprised by Mei Fang's sudden desire to learn guitar, but nodded and said, "Since you have made up your mind, go ahead and do it with Yuanyuan! I support you."

"Well, I'm not here to ask for your opinion." Mei Fang scratched his head, "Yuanyuan and I wanted to ask if you want to come along?"

"I am not very interested in music, and I have a lot of things to do with website operations. Now C Station has gradually gained some stable users who share and upload resources. In fact, I am considering renting a server, otherwise there will always be response timeout problems. A Station has problems because it is always unable to enter. Our website framework is more advanced than theirs, and we cannot let the server load problem affect our reputation."

Listening to Lin Youxi talking about C Station in a very clear and logical manner, he already had the demeanor of a technical expert. Mei Fang also felt a little guilty for not paying enough attention to C Station recently.

"You can rent it. I'll make the contact for you."

"I've already contacted them. I plan to just rent a certain amount of storage space and make do with it for now, but it will cost 2000 yuan a year... Ah Fang, I want to discuss with you whether the money we earn from "The Early Bird Gets the Glory" can be used to cover this part of the cost?"

"Of course you can... Don't say you're paying for it. You were the main creator of that game, so just ask me for the money."

"How can that be? We still have to settle the money. After all, you are the one who brought me to these places. I would feel embarrassed if I don't pay you back."

Mei Fang interrupted Lin Youxi's explanation: "Youxi, why are you dividing the family business with me so finely? Are you thinking that when you become powerful in the future, you will separate from me and start your own business?"

"That is to say, Youxi is always very reserved." Xia Yuan also followed suit, adding words that he could understand.

"Ah? I didn't mean that. Please don't misunderstand me."

Lin Youxi emphasized, "Besides, these are actually Ah Fang's hard work. At most, they are gifts from Ah Fang, just like that MP3... It's impossible for us to separate. But even brothers have to settle accounts. I don't like to owe you."

Mei Fang thought for a moment and said, "Well, last time I bought a car from you, I took more than a thousand yuan and didn't pay it back. How about I just pay it back this time?"

Lin Youxi nodded, "That's fine."

Xia Yuan was confused listening to the questions, but finally she could understand some of them: "Hey, did you buy a car? What kind of car? How come I don't know!"

This was the secret that Lin Youxi did not tell Xia Yuan at the beginning, and now she can only keep it secret.

"That... is about my father's electric car. I have consulted Ah Fang about some issues before."

Lin Youxi calmly found an excuse to get rid of the matter. As for Xia Yuan and Mei Fang's guitar learning, in addition to supporting them, Lin Youxi also made an additional suggestion, which was to remind them not to forget to continue studying. The two agreed.

It took Mei Fang and Xia Yuan some time to convince their parents to let them learn guitar in their spare time, but the parents of both families were quite open-minded and in the end there was not much opposition, so Mei Fang officially had her own guitar.

Xia Yuan's little thoughts here seemed to sweeten Mei Fang's heart, because she instigated Mei Fang to buy a pair of expensive solid-board folk guitars. She was worried that Mei Fang would hesitate because of the price, so she rushed to buy the guitar.

How could Mei Fang, who would have billions of assets in the future, bear the title of a gigolo? He insisted on returning the money to Xia Yuan, but Xia Yuan was also very willing, so the matter was left unresolved.

The guitar lessons they signed up for are charged by class hour, and are paid every six months. If a student comes once or twice a week, the estimated cost would be around 3000. Because the class is small, with two people, they have to call and make an appointment one day in advance before each class.

The guitar is an instrument that is easy to get started with but difficult to master in depth. Even if you want to learn it quickly, you won't see much result without a year or two of practice. You can only learn it slowly.

However, when Mei Fang touched the strings of the guitar for the first time, he felt an incomparable sense of fulfillment.

He was determined to learn the instrument well.

Think like never before.

If Xia Yuan hadn't been there to help him, he might never have picked up this buried dream again in his life.

A month later, everyone quickly entered the competition for the midterm exam. Although there were many unpleasant things in the meantime, everyone's results were pretty good. Lin Youxi ranked first as usual, Mei Fang followed closely behind in second place, and Xia Yuan achieved a rare second place in their class.

Apart from the fact that several top students in the class had an unbalanced mentality and performed poorly, Xia Yuan performed well in science subjects because the questions were relatively simple. He even got a good score of 82 (out of 85) in physics, which was 1 point higher than the embarrassing Mei Fang.

"This physics test is mostly rote memorization, which I'm pretty good at."

On the way home from the last evening self-study class at seven o'clock, Xia Yuan happily walked between Mei Fang and Lin Youxi.

"From now on, we can finally have classes together at night!"

Chapter 102 Passing a Note

The special class starting in the second year of junior high school, or what the school calls the "elite class", has two classes, consisting of the top 2 students in the whole grade. Theoretically, the top 130 students in each class have the opportunity to join this class, but as mentioned earlier, the Experimental Middle School is divided into Class A and Class B. The teaching level of the teachers in Class A and the students' admission scores are much higher than those of Class B. Actually, the resources for the top 10 students are all in Class A. Classes 130 and 8 have 9 and 16 students respectively participating in this elite class.

The advanced class starts at 7:10 pm and lasts until 8:30 pm, mainly focusing on four subjects: Chinese, mathematics, English and physics.

Although biology is a course taught in the first year of junior high school in this era, it is currently classified as a minor subject like politics, history and geography. It is a small liberal arts subject in the science department. It does not account for a high proportion in the high school entrance examination, and there is no need to make special arrangements for it.

As for the class location of the gifted classes, it is set in specific classrooms by default. Class 1 of the special class will be in classroom 8, and Class 2 of the special class will be in classroom 13.

Because Class 8 was Xia Yuan's home court, she helped Mei Fang and Lin Youxi reserve seats as soon as the get out of class was over. The two of them waited until most of the students in Class 8 had left, and as soon as they entered the classroom, they saw Xia Yuan waving at them diligently.

"Youxi, Ah Fang, come and sit here!"

Now, only Xia Yuan would openly call out nicknames in front of everyone. After all, no matter how good the relationship between most friends is, they will only call each other by their full names or funny nicknames, such as "Ermao", "Sanjin", "Beer", "Gouzi", "Dashen Zhou", etc. So when Xia Yuan called out the names, everyone couldn't help but look at Mei Fang and Lin Youxi. Mei Fang was a little embarrassed but also a little proud, and followed Xia Yuan to the position she designated.

"Youxi, come and sit here with me. We'll sit at the same table!"

Xia Yuan first pulled Lin Youxi to sit at the table next to her original seat. As soon as Lin Youxi sat down, she realized something was wrong.

"Is this Peng Xue's seat?"

"Hello, Youxi-chan!"

Peng Xue rubbed Lin Youxi's arm from behind and said, "I didn't expect that we could sit in the front and back rows. What a wonderful fate! You know, Yuanyuan begged me for a long time before I was willing to give you my seat."

Perhaps it was to repay the principal for his care for her, or maybe she wanted to express herself despite the shame in the past. In short, Peng Xue became much more serious after the incident. She focused on her studies and made progress. She ranked among the top 100 in the midterm exam and was qualified to enter the gifted class.

Mei Fang looked at the girls hugging each other and thought that it might not be appropriate for him to be too close to Xia Yuan in an occasion like school. Just as he was about to find a seat by the window, Xia Yuan stood up and waved at him.

"Ah Fang, why are you running there? Come sit here! Come sit over here!"

Xia Yuan, who was sitting in group three, specially left an empty seat on the inside of group two for Mei Fang to sit. Mei Fang thought about it and just in time saw Zhang Ming coming over from his class, so he invited him to sit here too.

Yue Xinyi, who arrived late, looked around and found that the classroom was already full of people sitting in groups of three or four. Lin Youxi, her deskmate who she could have absolutely relied on, was sitting with her childhood sweetheart Xia Yuan.

If it was Mei Fang, I could still accept it...

But I am very pitiful like this...

Perhaps noticing his helpless deskmate standing at the classroom door, Lin Youxi immediately stood up and waved to Yue Xinyi to come over.

"There's an empty seat in the back, come sit here."

"Ah... um... okay."
