I have few friends, but many childhood sweethearts.

Chapter 201. List of Competitors

Inside the bedroom, Lin Wanning and Zhang Yi lay side by side on the carpet, their two delicate, snow-white legs swaying in the air like oars moving in unison.

In front of the two girls was a beautiful notebook, with Xu Qingfan's name written in the center, surrounded by the names of five girls, like planets encircling him.

Lin Wanning held a Pilot pen in his right hand. Xiao Ruanwen's name was marked with a big "X" first. After discussing for a while, the two of them marked Wu Lingyu's name with an "X".

The reason for crossing Xiao Ruanwen's name out first was that neither of them sensed that she had feelings for Xu Qingfan; at least, they hadn't noticed it in their daily interactions.

As for Wu Lingyu, they analyzed that Xiaoyu probably likes Qingfan, but Xiaoyu definitely won't confess her feelings, so she's no threat at all.

Only Xia Xiaoxiao remained. The two girls exchanged a glance, both sensing the troublesome nature of the person behind their names.

"Xiaoxiao is so pretty, and she gets good grades. She's also known Qingfan the longest!" Lin Wanning counted Xia Xiaoxiao's advantages on his fingers.

"Mmm!" Zhang Yiyi nodded in deep agreement.

Admittedly, from their perspectives, Xia Xiaoxiao and Xu Qingfan have known each other since childhood, are neighbors separated by only one wall, their parents have known each other since childhood, and most importantly, she has such good grades!

In the minds of the two middle school students, good grades are undoubtedly a big plus. What's more, Xia Xiaoxiao is not just good at academics, but has been with Xu Qingfan since childhood, winning all kinds of competition awards. Even Wu Lingyu is slightly inferior to her.

Most importantly, she's so beautiful. When she's not arguing with Xu Qingfan, she's a perfect beauty, and even the two girls have to admit it.

Of course, this is also because Lin Wanning and Zhang Yiyi have not yet started to develop. When they grow up, they are no less beautiful than Xia Xiaoxiao. One is sweet and cute, and the other is demure and charming. They each have their own merits.

The two struggled for a long time but couldn't come up with a way to remove Xia Xiaoxiao's name. Suddenly, Lin Wanning had a bold idea.

She said, "How about we bring Xiaoxiao into the team too?"

Zhang Yi blinked, then blinked again. She turned her head and stared at Lin Wanning. Although she didn't say a word, her face seemed to say: Little brother, are you alright?

"Hey~ Yi Yi, stop looking!" Lin Wanning was embarrassed by her stare, buried his head in Zhang Yi Yi's body, and then tackled her to the ground.

For a moment, the room was filled with the warmth and fragrance of a young girl, her silvery laughter echoing through the air, and the scent of youth wafted through the room.

"Yi-yi, let go of me! I promise I won't hit you again!" Seeing that Zhang Yi-yi was unmoved, Lin Wan-ning put on a pitiful expression. "I promise~"

"Haha~ Just kidding!" As soon as she was released, the girl turned the tables and sang her praises.

Zhang Yiyi suppressed Lin Wanning again not long after. As the weakest of the five girls in terms of combat power, if Xiao Ruanwen's combat power value is 100, then Lin Wanning's is probably only in the single digits.

Tired from playing, the two lay on the ground staring at the ceiling, beads of sweat trickling down their faces.

"There are two of us, and Xiaoxiao is only one person, so we're definitely going to win!"

"Ah."

"Brother Qingfan is ours!"

"Ok!"

The two turned to face each other with unspoken understanding, their eyes filled with an indomitable spirit.

The two girls were startled when someone suddenly knocked on the bedroom door.

"May I come in?" Xu Qingfan's voice came from outside the door a second later.

"Brother Qingfan, wait a minute!" Lin Wanning, like a child caught doing something wrong, quickly closed his notebook and looked around for a place to hide.

"There." Zhang Yi pointed to the schoolbag. "What's wrong, Brother Qingfan?" Lin Wanning hid the notebook containing their secrets, then ran to the door and opened it.

"Aren't you welcome coming in to play?" Xu Qingfan raised his hand and patted the girl's head that was peeking out.

"Of course you're welcome!" Lin Wanning opened the door and invited him in.

Zhang Yiyi's bedroom was three times the size of his, with pink painted walls and a princess bed like those in movies. Perhaps to make it convenient for Lin Wanning to come over, there were two computers in the room.

"What were you guys doing just now?" He came in, patted Zhang Yiyi's head first, and asked curiously when he saw that the computer was off.

"Fine, you're not going to tell me, huh?" Seeing that the two of them were on the same page and kept quiet, Xu Qingfan pushed Zhang Yiyi onto the bed the next second.

"It's a little secret, isn't it? Tell me or not!" He pinned down the girl's arms with one hand, while his free hand frantically tickled her armpits.

"Hehehe~ Brother...no!"

"I'll help you!" Lin Wanning saw this and lunged forward with her arms outstretched, intending to knock Xu Qingfan away.

However, how could a weakling like her possibly defeat Xu Qingfan, who had already entered puberty? After being flung away with one hand, she immediately used a unique skill from Stephen Chow's movies—the monkey stealing peaches.

"Damn it! Wan Ning, what are you doing?"

"Hehe~ The movie really didn't lie!" Lin Wanning proudly held up two unseen peaches.

"Brother, you big bad guy!" Zhang Yiyi smiled and hid behind Lin Wanning after being rescued.

Seeing how happy the two were, Xu Qingfan sighed helplessly, "You can't just grab a boy's private parts like that, you'll drive him crazy sooner or later!"

"I didn't use any force," the girl said, sounding aggrieved, in the face of his stern expression.

"It won't work if I don't use enough force!" Xu Qingfan thought to himself, if he gets scared a few more times, the engine will stall and won't work!

"Brother, a vicious person!"

"Yes, Brother Qingfan is super fierce!" Lin Wanning, who was originally looking guilty, immediately put her hands on her hips and said with a wronged and dissatisfied expression after hearing this.

When two adorable young girls act cute and charming in front of you, what can you do but admit your mistake?

He said, "Okay, okay, it's my fault. How about I take you guys out to play? Didn't I say I haven't taken you two to take pictures in a long time?"

Clearly, since the six of them started living together, not only Xia Xiaoxiao felt that Xu Qingfan spent less time alone with her, but Lin Wanning and Zhang Yiyi also occasionally complained.

"Brother Qingfan, does that mean we can't play bumper cars anymore when we grow up?"

"This photo was taken a long time ago."

The girls often said similar things, whether explicitly or implicitly.

"Hehe~" Lin Wanning chuckled at first, then realized he was about to get angry, turned his head to the side and said, "Don't expect us to forgive you easily if you don't buy the wheel cakes!"

"Buy, buy, buy! Wheel cakes, chocolate egg waffles, and takoyaki—I'll buy them all for you!" he said, pulling out his wallet and waving his hand.

"Yay, Brother Qingfan is the best!" The easily appeased girl forgave Xu Qingfan instantly.

After spending time alone with the two of them and taking many beautiful photos, Xu Qingfan finally ended his day trip.
