I have few friends, but many childhood sweethearts.

Chapter 303. We won't have any conflicts!

After the initial few nights of sleeplessness and days of sound sleep, the six people's biological clocks gradually returned to 6 a.m. from 9 a.m.

After entering the third year of junior high school, their afternoon schedule changed from three periods to four periods. The last period was still a self-study period, but the dismissal time was postponed from 4:50 to 5:30.

"They're such idiots, hahaha~"

"What good food is there in that shitty cafeteria? You get bugs in your food every day!"

Downstairs, a large group of first-year junior high students were rushing to the front line of cooking.

Since they had another class later, the group of ninth graders could only watch them from the stairwell, making sarcastic remarks like, "Never seen a snake pee before?"

This seems to have become part of their way of relaxing after studying.

They suddenly became the largest group of students in the school. Besides complaining about the heavy academic pressure, they would inexplicably feel a sense of superiority when they saw the group of new first-year junior high students.

Because what they are experiencing is what we have already experienced.

Xu Qingfan and the five girls were also chatting in the aisle, mainly because the classroom smelled terrible.

The phrase "July's scorching heat" doesn't apply to Licheng. Not only in July, but also in August, September, October, and even November, the weather in Licheng has only one theme—the height of summer!
Only eight old ceiling fans were working in the classroom. The students' sweat and the strange smell of spicy snacks mingled and permeated the air. If they had a choice, they would prefer to stay outside for some fresh air.

"Shall we go buy shaved ice after school? It's so hot." One of Xiao Ruanwen's school uniform buttons was undone, and a bead of sweat the size of a bean slid down the gap and into the deep cleavage.

"I want to eat mango jelly!" Little foodie Lin Wanning's eyes lit up instantly.

"Then let's go, since we're on holiday anyway," Xu Qingfan said, stretching and scratching his back.

It seemed that her arms weren't long enough to reach it, so Wu Lingyu thoughtfully used her claws to help.

"Thank you, Xiaoyu," Xu Qingfan smiled and glanced at Wu Lingyu. Suddenly, he remembered that he had promised her a few days ago to accompany her back to her old house this weekend. "Perfect timing! Let's buy some shaved ice and then go to Xiaoyu's old house to watch the sunset together."

Wu Lingyu was stunned, her hand remaining on his back, forgetting to retract.

"Xiaoyu's old home... I don't even know where it is. Xiaoxiao, do you know? We have to go!"

Xia Xiaoxiao shook her head: "Xiaoyu didn't tell me either."

"Let's go on an adventure with Xiaobai and explore a brand new map!" Lin Wanning loved this activity the most. Every Friday afternoon after school, the six of them would take the dog and wander around aimlessly.

Worried that Xia Xiaoxiao might misunderstand, Wu Lingyu quickly explained, "It was a long time ago, I think it was during the New Year. Only Fan Ge and I were at home, and that was the only time we went."

Zhang Yiyi looked at Xu Qingfan, her eyes brightening, and said, "Then let's all go together!"

Xia Xiaoxiao smiled and put her hand on Wu Lingyu's shoulder, saying, "I know, Xiaoyu, why are you in such a hurry?"

"Ah, I... um." Wu Lingyu dared not move at this moment, she dared not move at all.

"Let's go, back to our last self-study session." The bell rang, and Xu Qingfan waved and was the first to walk back to the classroom.

“Yes!” The five girls followed closely behind.

Friday's last self-study period is the one that flies by the fastest. With twenty minutes left before school ends, students begin to pack their belongings.

With ten minutes left before school ends, nearly 90% of the students in the class are staring at the wall clock, while the remaining 10% are packing their schoolbags.

With five minutes left, the table was completely clean, not a single book in sight. In the final minute, the student who had checked the time started to give instructions, and the rest of the class silently joined in the countdown.

"Ten, nine, eight, three, two, one!" Just as the countdown reached one, the school bell rang, signaling the end of the school term.

As if to celebrate the successful countdown, the students immediately clapped and cheered enthusiastically, but the sound grew fainter and fainter.

"Liberation!" The next second after the bell rang, countless athletes took off running, and the class that was originally full of people was soon reduced to less than a third of its original size.

"Brother Qingfan, hurry up!" Seeing that Xu Qingfan was still doing math problems, Lin Wanning stood behind him and made a fuss, grabbing his shoulders and jumping around.

Xia Xiaoxiao was even more direct. Taking advantage of the moment his hand moved away, she snatched the test paper into her own hand, folded it, and put it into her schoolbag. "That's fine, let's go!"

"Hehe~ Little Saiga!"

"Hey~ I just had a little idea." Xu Qingfan glared at the two of them, then reluctantly slung his backpack over his shoulder and stood up.
"Hurry up, or we'll miss the sunset!"

"Eat shaved ice and watch the sunset!"

He had barely started to get up when several girls grabbed him and dragged him three or four meters away.

"What's the rush? Licheng is in the Northern Hemisphere; sunset doesn't start until 6:30 in September. There's still an hour to go!"

However, the girls ignored him and kept pulling him away.

"Let's go!"

He ran from the classroom to the corridor, from the fifth floor to the first floor, and from the school back to his secret base home.

The five girls dragged Xu Qingfan along, running non-stop. Their neatly tied high ponytails were casually pulled down, and the summer wind filled their school uniforms, hiding the greatest love of their entire youth.

After putting their schoolbags away at home, Lin Wanning took Xiaobai, the gatekeeper, and the six of them set off again.

Elementary school students have been out of school for a while now, so the peak period has passed and there's no need to queue when buying shaved ice.

"It's been a long time since I've seen you guys," the snack shop owner suddenly said.

"Auntie, you remember us?" Xu Qingfan was taken aback for a moment before taking out money from his school uniform pants to pay.

"Of course I recognize them! They're all handsome men and beautiful women. I thought you guys had a fight and weren't coming." After saying that, the proprietress slapped herself three times. "Pah, pah, pah, look at my mouth, I just can't speak properly, haha. Here's your three yuan change."

"How could that be? We would never argue!" Lin Wanning pouted in dissatisfaction.

"Haha, Auntie misspoke. I'll put an extra mango in your smoothie!" the proprietress said with an embarrassed smile.

What she was really thinking was that with five girls and a handsome young man, they were bound to fight over him later on, since that's how it always turned out in the TV dramas she watched.

"It's okay, Auntie, just put it away normally. We have a great relationship, we won't have any conflicts!" As if to prove to them, Xiao Ruanwen affectionately put her arms around Xu Qingfan and Xia Xiaoxiao's shoulders and said.

"Hehehe~ Hmm, Auntie misspoke. Here, have this mango shaved ice for you."

"Wow, thank you, Auntie!"

Xu Qingfan didn't take it to heart either; the tacit understanding and harmony among the six of them was something that couldn't be told to outsiders.
