I have few friends, but many childhood sweethearts.

Chapter 216. The Girl's Complaint

The National Meteorological Center forecasts that a new cold front will arrive starting tomorrow, which will be the strongest cold front so far this year.

The weather forecast from CCTV was playing on the TV. After lunch, Xu Qingfan and Xia Xiaoxiao huddled together on the sofa, sharing a blanket for warmth.

"No wonder it's so cold, especially with the drizzle." He glanced out the window at the gloomy, rainy scene and shook his head, shivering from the cold.

Xia Xiaoxiao was freezing, pressing her little brother against her feet to keep warm, and reaching her hands inside Xu Qingfan's clothes to touch his abs.

"Change the channel."

Xu Qingfan rolled his eyes at the girl, reached out and picked up the cold remote control on the sofa. After switching the TV to a movie channel, his phone rang at that very moment.

The TV was playing Stephen Chow's "Hail the Judge." He took out his phone from his pocket and checked it, only to find that it was Lin Wanning calling.

"Brother Qingfan, is there anyone next to you?" A girl's voice came through the speakerphone after the call was connected.

Xu Qingfan glanced at Xia Xiaoxiao and said, "Xiaoxiao is right next to me, what's wrong?"

"Oh~ it's nothing, I just wanted to ask Brother Qingfan when you said you'd continue publishing comics?" Lin Wanning's mouth formed an "O" shape, and he suddenly didn't dare to say what he was about to say.

"Oh, it'll be ready soon, next week," he replied after thinking for a moment.

"Yes, Yi-yi and I will do our best!"

"It's so cold today. Are you dressed warmly enough at home? You can't go without your long johns."

"I'm wearing it. The air conditioner is on in the living room, but it's so stuffy, I can't breathe." Lin Wanning made a deep breath gesture, even though Xu Qingfan on the other end of the phone couldn't see it.

Xia Xiaoxiao hugged her knees with both hands and kept her lips pursed without saying a word.

The two chatted for another seven or eight minutes before Xu Qingfan asked, "Wan Ning, is there anything else? If not, I'm going to take a nap. It's time to sleep in."

"Brother Qingfan, wait a minute!" the girl suddenly said anxiously.

"how?"

"Well, I got my period. It started after lunch. Mom and Dad went to work," Lin Wanning stammered.

Xu Qingfan immediately sat up straight after hearing this, after all, this was an important event in Lin Wanning's growth, and little Wanning was about to grow up.

He asked with concern, "Did you feel unwell that night, Ning? Did you change your sanitary napkin? You should drink more hot water."

Xia Xiaoxiao still didn't interrupt, but she was starting to feel annoyed. What was supposed to be a nice time alone for the two of them had turned into a movie for three, but she was left without a name.

"I don't feel well~ My back hurts, my hands hurt, my lower abdomen hurts, and I have chest tightness." Hearing Xu Qingfan's concern, the girl instantly dropped her pretense and said in a wronged tone.

"Then I'll come over and see you." He looked up at the window; the rain had thinned to the point of being invisible to the naked eye, and the sky remained a hazy gray.

"Really!"

Lin Wanning had been lying on the sofa to relieve her lower abdominal pain, but upon hearing that Xu Qingfan was coming to see her, she immediately sat up excitedly, "Ah~"

"What's wrong? What's wrong? Wan Ning, are you alright?" Xu Qingfan asked anxiously upon hearing her cries of pain.

"Brother Qingfan, I'm fine~" The girl lay down again and continued to ask into the microphone, "Brother Qingfan, are you coming to see me?" "Yes, I'll take a taxi over now. You stay home and rest."

"Hmm!" After receiving an affirmative answer, Lin Wanning suddenly felt that the pain had stopped.

She was only surprised and taken aback for a moment, then quickly thought naively:
[No, Qingfan came because I wasn't feeling well. The pain can't go away so quickly; your stomach needs to keep hurting!]
Sure enough, when Lin Wanning recalled the pain of diarrhea he had experienced after eating iced watermelon in the morning, the pain returned.

But it doesn't matter anymore, because Brother Qingfan is coming soon.
Xu Qingfan hung up the phone and looked at Xia Xiaoxiao, "Do you want to come along?"

Xia Xiaoxiao was already unhappy, and hearing these words made her even more unhappy.

She's had her period before, and so have the other three girls. Aside from the hassle of changing sanitary pads frequently, there aren't many other rules. They don't even get upset stomachs when they drink iced milk tea!
She wanted to say that Lin Wanning was faking his illness, but saying that would damage the friendship among the six of them, and the girl's emotional intelligence wasn't that low.

Xia Xiaoxiao knew it was wrong to think this way about her best friend, but she just couldn't control herself; it was actually because she was jealous.

When they lived together, Lin Wanning would sneak into Xu Qingfan's room to sleep many times after everyone else had fallen asleep, which had crossed Xia Xiaoxiao's bottom line.

She can accept feeding each other and being affectionate, but she can't stand sleeping together!
After all, this stinky dog ​​likes to be clumsy when he sleeps, and she was the first victim. Moreover, she only slept with Xu Qingfan when she was in the second grade. Why should Lin Wanning be able to sleep with him when he grows up?
She had told her many times that now that they were grown up, boys and girls were different and they couldn't sleep together anymore, but Lin Wanning just wouldn't listen. Every time, he would just laugh it off. Xia Xiaoxin had been holding back her dissatisfaction for a long time.

What Xia Xiaoxiao disliked the most was Xu Qingfan, because every time she lectured Lin Wanning, this stinky dog ​​would stand by and act as a peacemaker, completely unaware that it was clearly his own problem, making it seem like Xia Xiaoxiao was the one being aggressive.

"I'm not going, I'm taking a nap at home!" Xia Xiaoxiao felt more and more aggrieved and turned her head away from him.

However, Xu Qingfan did not think that way. After all, people's physical constitutions are different, and most importantly, Wan Ning would not lie to him.

"Okay, it's too cold, you can stay home and take a nap." He patted the girl's head and handed her his hot water bottle.

Xia Xiaoxiao was already wallowing in self-pity, not wanting to say a word, ignoring Xu Qingfan, and staring blankly at the TV while hugging the cat.

[You stinky dog, you bad dog, you lapdog, I'm never talking to you again, boohoo.]
Seeing Xu Qingfan put on his shoes, grab his keys, and leave, tears welled up in the girl's eyes.

After sobbing in the house for seven or eight minutes, just as Xia Xiaoxiao was determined to ignore Xu Qingfan for the next two weeks, he suddenly returned home.

The girl gaped in astonishment, forgetting even to wipe away the tears from the corners of her eyes.

"I bought you hot milk tea, takoyaki, and sushi. Be a good girl and stay home. I'll be back before dinner." He took out the snacks one by one from his down jacket, and while speaking, he didn't forget to turn on the air conditioner in the living room for Xia Xiaoxiao.

"Oh." Xia Xiaoxiao's tone had softened, but she still didn't have a friendly expression.

"I'm leaving now. Remember to be a good girl and wait for me to come back at home." He stepped forward and ruffled the girl's hair.

"Don't touch my head, I'll never wait for you!" Xia Xiaoxiao said with an embarrassed and annoyed expression.

Xu Qingfan smiled and turned to leave. He figured he had managed to appease Xia Xiaoxiao.

Sure enough, after Xu Qingfan completely disappeared, the girl couldn't wait to insert a straw and drink her milk tea, a long-lost smile appearing on her face.

"Hmph~ Don't think you can bribe me with a little snack. Since you're so sincere in admitting your mistake, I'll block you for three hours!" She held the little dinosaur keychain in her hand, looking into the little dinosaur's eyes and talking to herself.

The next second, the Japanese phrase "I love you the most" rang out in the living room.
