I have few friends, but many childhood sweethearts.

Chapter 341. My First Kiss is Gone.

Her little hands, exposed to the air, quickly turned white from the cold, but Xia Xiaoxiao seemed oblivious, continuing to play with her little keychain with great enthusiasm.

The clamor of the wind and declarations of love echoed across the rooftop, making even the bare grapevines seem to come alive with a renewed spring.

Noticing the girl's shoulders trembling, Xu Qingfan hugged her even tighter.

"Let's go back, the sun's gone."

Xia Xiaoxiao really liked the atmosphere. Even though her teeth were chattering from the cold, she still stubbornly said, "No, let's just enjoy the breeze since there's no sun."

"Look at your hands, they're practically frozen into ice sculptures."

Xu Qingfan warmed the girl's small hands with his large, warm hands. If those hands were placed on him, he would definitely shrink back from the cold.

Xia Xiaoxiao squinted comfortably: "No, my birthday wish is for you to come here with me and enjoy the scenery!"

"I'm here with you to enjoy the scenery, but do I have to go with you to the hospital to register tomorrow?" Xu Qingfan flicked her forehead with his other hand.

"Humph~"

Xia Xiaoxiao's gaze lingered on his down jacket, and suddenly a brilliant idea came to her.

Xu Qingfan was wearing an oversized down jacket that reached her thighs, and it was clear that she could easily fit inside!

"If we share your clothes, we won't be cold," she said with a sly smile.

Xu Qingfan didn't understand what she meant and asked in confusion, "Why are you wearing them together? My clothes don't even have four sleeves."

Xia Xiaoxiao glared at him and ordered, "Unzip your zipper first."

Although Xu Qingfan didn't understand what Xia Xiaoxiao was trying to do, he still did as she said: "And then."

Before he could finish speaking, Xia Xiaoxiao had already thrown herself into his arms.

She then put her arms around his waist from inside his down jacket.

"Huh?" Xu Qingfan froze in place as he raised his hand, inhaling the unique fragrance of the girl's hair, his heart pounding uncontrollably.

Xia Xiaoxiao took a deep breath, her face flushed, and said, "Just zip it up again and it'll be fine."

"Okay," Xu Qingfan finally understood what the girl meant and mechanically zipped up his down jacket.

Even after the zipper was fully zipped up, Xia Xiaoxiao was both shy and had a smug look on her face.

She absolutely loved this special birthday gift!

"Cough um."

Fortunately, Xia Xiaoxiao was wearing many clothes, so Xu Qingfan hadn't reacted yet, but he still felt quite embarrassed.

"Sigh~"

"Hmm~"

Xia Xiaoxiao didn't care about any of that. After putting the keychain away, her cold hands continued to explore inside until they covered Xu Qingfan's warm back, at which point she let out a soft moan of comfort.

Seeing that Xu Qingfan didn't speak, she said to herself, "This way it won't be cold!"

Xu Qingfan's clothes were very stretchy. After Xia Xiao finished speaking, she turned around on the spot, turning the back of her head towards him.

"Xiao Fan."

For once, Xia Xiaoxiao didn't call him by his full name, and Xu Qingfan was a little unaccustomed to it: "Hmm?"

"thank you"

Xu Qingfan assumed she was talking about the birthday present and accepted it without hesitation.

"Ah."

Xia Xiaoxiao clenched her fist, mustered her courage, and said:

"I know I was very bad that day. I shouldn't have said those hurtful things and even smashed the keychain."

I really loved that keychain. I even secretly cried when I took out the trash the other day because I couldn't find it in the garbage bag and thought you had thrown it away.

Tears began to well up in the girl's eyes, but thankfully he couldn't see them from that angle.

"I picked it up and put it in the drawer, I didn't lose it." Xu Qingfan wanted to reach out and hug her, but then he remembered that Xia Xiaoxiao had hidden inside his clothes.

"Yes, I know, sob. I secretly went into your room later and saw it in the drawer. Sob, Xiao Fan, thank you. Thank you for cherishing it!" Xia Xiaoxiao said, sobbing.

"Hmm, it's okay, but you should probably call me by my full name, it sounds kind of awkward." *Pfft*

Xia Xiaoxiao burst into laughter through her tears, her coquettish expression captivating, but unfortunately, he couldn't see it.

"You're so annoying~ You're not allowed to talk!" she sniffled and complained with a pout.

[How annoying! Lin Wanning can call you Brother Qingfan, but it feels awkward when I call you Xiaofan! Humph~]
"Alright, alright, you go ahead, I'm listening." Xu Qingfan shook his head with amusement.

"Humph~"

Xia Xiaoxiao composed herself before speaking again: "I was thinking, would you casually hand me the repaired dinosaur keychain on a sunny morning, as casually as picking up a fallen leaf?"

I think if you really do that, then I will definitely cherish the keychain from now on, never be unreasonable again, and never listen to you for the rest of my life.”

"What did you say?" Xia Xiaoxiao's last words were barely audible, and Xu Qingfan wasn't even sure if she had said anything at all.

Xia Xiaoxiao's face flushed slightly. Anyway, she had already said that it was his own problem if the stinky dog ​​didn't hear her!
How could you say something so embarrassing?!
"I guessed the beginning of the story, even though it was in the afternoon instead of the morning, it doesn't matter. And the ending was even better than I imagined, Xiao Fan, thank you so much."

It was only a few months ago, and Xu Qingfan had already forgiven her. Now that she brought it up again, Xu Qingfan felt her heart melt.

Don't say he lacks backbone. Any normal person would soften when a beautiful woman acts coquettishly, let alone the person in front of him, Xia Xiaoxiao, who was stubborn to death in her previous life.

"Okay, I already said I forgave you, and I was also wrong that day." He pulled up his sleeves, tucking both arms back into his clothes, and reached out to wrap his arms around Xia Xiaoxiao's slender waist.

"Mmm." The girl obediently leaned her weight against him, covering Xu Qingfan's hands that were wrapped around her lower abdomen with her own.

"Phew~" Xu Qingfan exhaled a breath of warm air before continuing, "Xiaoxiao is very good, well-behaved, and cute. She's not annoying at all, and she's not a giant baby. She's a top student, a great beauty, a gaming expert, and also my most important family member."

"That's right!" Xia Xiaoxiao recalled the words Xu Qingfan had said to her on QQ that day, and her little tiger teeth flashed coldly.

"Can't you be a little more humble?" he said, giving the girl a playful bump on the head.

"Hmph~ Who told you to call me a giant baby? You have no idea how sad I was when I saw that!" Her eyes reddened again as she thought about it.

"Okay, it's my fault. I shouldn't have said that. I promise you I'll control my emotions from now on, I won't yell at you anymore, and I won't say anything mean to you. Okay?"

"Cough~ That's more like it!" Xia Xiaoxiao held back her tears, adjusted her voice, and said arrogantly.

Xu Qingfan smiled slightly and rested his chin comfortably on the girl's shoulder.

[This life's Xiaoxiao is different; let's just consider it a new acquaintance. Let's not project our own lives onto her in the future.]
"Xiao Xu Qingfan, can you tell me the story of the keychain?" Xia Xiaoxiao herself felt a little awkward, but in the end she changed back to calling the stinky dog ​​by its name.

"Huh? What story?" Xu Qingfan asked after a moment of surprise.

"That's right... that's right, how did you manage to turn it back into a little brother? You idiot!" Xia Xiao pouted after saying that, looking quite cute.

"Oh, you mean this? It's simple. Plastic toys are usually made of PP, which is polypropylene. Its melting point is only around 160°C. I'll use it first."

When it came to his area of ​​expertise, Xu Qingfan spoke eloquently, starting with the extraction and purification of organic matter and explaining to Xia Xiaoxiao the entire process from impurity removal to casting.

"The force-sensitive transmission mechanism was programmed by a programmer, but that's not important; it's just a cheap gadget costing a few dozen yuan. The real expense was in making the mold, but that didn't actually cost much either. If 3D printers existed, I could do it in a heartbeat."

Xia Xiaoxiao turned her body back around. Although she couldn't understand what Xu Qingfan was saying, her heart was in turmoil for some reason.

[So he's done so much for me.]
Xia Xiaoxiao's eyes shone brightly.

"I added vinyl chloride and acrylic acid to modify the PP later, so if you try to break it again, just..."

Xu Qingfan was still talking non-stop.

The next second, a pair of cherry lips sealed his mouth.

Xu Qingfan stared wide-eyed in astonishment. [Again?]
The girl's lips parted slightly, revealing a cherry-like rosy lip, and two lines of jade-like petals sprayed out like spring sunshine.

His lips were easily forced open, and his teeth clashed together, making a clicking sound.

"No. Uh!"

The next moment, his pupils widened even further.

It's like Sun Wukong accidentally stumbling upon the Peach Banquet and drinking the nectar.

It felt so soft, like Nobita sleeping on a cloud, with stars twinkling in his mind.

Before long, Xu Qingfan also closed his eyes and responded to the girl without any instruction.

The two remained silent, like flames on a candle, blown backward by a gust of wind and turned backward.

On a winter afternoon, the reflections of the boy and girl merge into one.
