I have few friends, but many childhood sweethearts.

Chapter 357. Who is in the same class as Xu Qingfan?
Around nine o'clock in the morning, the six of them, having finished breakfast, strolled leisurely on their way to school.

The high school campus is far from the city center, with less car exhaust emissions, and even the air smells like plants.

After stepping out of the street lined with trees, the soft sunlight instantly fell on the group.

The traffic light in front of them turned from green to red, and the six people slowly came to a stop.

There were already many pedestrians at both ends of the road, mostly students of the same age as them, some accompanied by their parents, and others in groups of two or three friends.

When they stopped at the zebra crossing, countless curious eyes were cast upon the six of them.

The six of them were already used to being the center of attention. Xiao Ruanwen raised her hand, lazily puffed out her chest, and said, "The weather is so nice today!"

Xu Qingfan tightened the dog leash to prevent Xiaobai from suddenly going berserk and running into the road.

"If the sky is overcast at dawn, you might not be able to leave home tomorrow," he said.

"It's good that it's raining tomorrow, no need for military training, hehe!" Lin Wanning bent down and stroked Xiaobai's head, her voice clear and sweet.

"But the weather forecast says it will be sunny all week."

"When has that thing ever been accurate? Let's go, the light's green." Xu Qingfan smiled meaningfully and led Xiaobai along.

"Ok!"

The group of six people and one dog was very eye-catching. The girls' skirts fluttered and their high ponytails swung casually as they talked, making them the most beautiful sight on the street.

"What a pretty girl. I wish she could be my deskmate," someone whispered in prayer.

"Damn it, they have to be siblings, they have to be siblings!" someone cursed viciously.

The freshmen's military training is tomorrow. Today we came back mainly to register, pay tuition, and familiarize ourselves with our classes and dormitories. Then we can go home.

Along the way, Xu Qingfan had a persistent feeling that these faces seemed familiar, but he couldn't quite place their names.

This is actually normal. Not to mention those classmates he only met once, Xu Qingfan has already forgotten the names of many of his classmates from high school.

The registration location is right at the entrance. Find the teacher corresponding to your junior high school and then wait in line.

"Look, look! My idol is here!"

"Hey, hey, hey, nine o'clock! Nine o'clock!"

The junior high school has the largest number of students directly promoted each year, so naturally the queue is also the longest.

As soon as the six of them approached, they were immediately recognized by students from the same school. In a very characteristic way for this age group, they tugged at their friends' clothes and whispered among themselves.

Xu Qingfan led the six people to the very end of the line, and couldn't help but find it a little funny.

Because there was a time when, when a beautiful woman walked by, his best friend would tug at his clothes and secretly hint, "Look at the nine o'clock direction, her legs are incredibly white!"

However, those are memories from a past life. In my previous life, I met two best friends in high school because of playing League of Legends, but later, due to the barriers of time and space, our relationship gradually drifted apart.

As for university, my roommates were complete idiots, so let's not even mention them.

Having been reborn, he had long lost the passion he once had for staying up all night to rank up. Now, he plays games more to enjoy the fun of carrying girls.

So it's probably unlikely that he'll be able to rekindle his relationship with those two internet addicts. On the other hand, those female seniors and juniors who were supposed to be good buddies ended up confessing their feelings to him one by one!

Xu Qingfan secretly shook his head, [I'd better never randomly make friends with anyone again in this life. They say they're brothers, but they're all just after my body!]
In his past life, he didn't know what he was thinking. Maybe he felt that it was prestigious to make friends with many girls. Of course, there was also the intention of making Xia Xiaoxiao feel a little pressure. In short, he got to know a lot of beautiful girls.

But Xu Qingfan swears that he really only treated them as buddies at the time.

He sighed, thinking: Let's solve the problem of these five girls first!

As the group drew closer, the five girls began to feel anxious.

The moment of class assignment announcement is fast approaching. On a small scale, it concerns whether they can be in the same class as Xu Qingfan; on a larger scale, it concerns their lifelong happiness. How could the five girls not be nervous?

"Xu Qingfan, you guys are really in the high school section?!"

Just as it was about to be their turn, a clear female voice suddenly interrupted the six people's anxiety.

Xu Qingfan turned his head and saw a girl he didn't recognize. He nodded politely and said, "Yes."

"My name is He Caiting, we're classmates!" The girl winked shyly at him, then ran away without looking back.

The five girls instantly became alert and added the girl named He Caiting to their list of potential dangers.

[Qingfan won't pay any attention to you!]
[Another shameless, wicked woman.]
[Her...her butt isn't as big as mine!]
[My brother definitely wouldn't like this.]
[I'll protect Fan Ge's chastity!]
"School, Name".

"Licheng Middle School, Class 96, Xu Qingfan." When it was Xu Qingfan's turn, he placed the prepared cash and ID card on the table and spoke.

The registration teacher didn't look up, but when he saw the grades displayed after the names, he couldn't help but look up.

"So you're Qingfan. Not bad, not bad. Keep up the good work in high school!" The teacher smiled kindly and put a checkmark next to his name.

Because all the top students in the high school entrance exam are going to Gangcheng, the high school hasn't produced a Tsinghua or Peking University student in over ten years. Xu Qingfan, who scored 776 points and ranked third in the district, is clearly being considered a potential prospect.

"Your class is Class 16 of the first year of high school, and your dormitory number is 201 in Building 1, which is the building at the end of the straight path after you exit the first canteen." Because of his grades, the teacher gave him a few extra words of advice.

[Still in Class 16, huh? I wonder if Xiaoxiao will be like me?]
“Teacher, I plan to commute to high school, and my parents have already agreed.” Xu Qingfan smiled and nodded, accepting the enrollment information handed to him.

"Hmm? High school is different from junior high. Morning reading starts at seven o'clock. Your home is in Donghui City, and it takes half an hour to get there and back by bus. Are you sure you don't want to stay at the dormitory?"

For an ordinary student, they could simply commute to school if they wanted to, but for this promising prospect for Tsinghua or Peking University, the teacher couldn't help but offer some advice: "Our high school has excellent accommodations, the cafeteria food is delicious, and our teachers eat there too. The dormitories are eight-person rooms with air conditioning and hot water available 24 hours a day."

“It’s okay, teacher, I can handle it. I also commuted to school for all three years of junior high.” Xu Qingfan continued to smile and nod.

If it were him in the first year of junior high, he probably would have already been unable to contain his excitement and boasted that he had bought a house across the street. But as he grew older, Xu Qingfan felt that it was best to be low-key.

"Alright, if you can't adapt after school starts, you can ask your homeroom teacher to reapply for accommodation. At our school, one bed corresponds to one student."

The middle-aged teacher shook his head helplessly and accepted the four hundred yuan handed to him by Xu Qingfan.

Licheng implements twelve years of compulsory education. The 400 yuan includes 100 yuan for the meal card and the cost of two sets of school uniforms for winter and summer.

"Thank you, teacher." Xu Qingfan smiled and walked out of the line after collecting all the items.

[Class 16, Class 16, Class 16!]
The second person to sign up was Lin Wanning. The girl silently repeated it three times in her mind before taking a step forward.

"Teacher, I'm also from Licheng Middle School, Lin Wanning from Class 96."

[It has to be Class 16!]
"Lin Wanning is in Class 2 of Grade 11, and his dormitory is Room 106 in Building 5."

"Ah~" Lin Wanning instantly became dejected, hunching over as if all his energy had been drained.

"Thank you, teacher, waaaah, Qingfan brother!" After registration was over, she walked up to Xu Qingfan with a pitiful expression.

"It's okay, we can still go to and from school together." Xu Qingfan rubbed the girl's head.

He himself couldn't quite describe his feelings; there was a sense of relief, but also a feeling of loss.

"Waaah~ Okay." Lin Wanning pouted, looking aggrieved, and stood beside him waiting for the class assignments.

[Yi-Yi absolutely must be assigned to Class 16!]
[If I can't be in the same class as my brother, I can be in Class 2 with Wan Ning.]
“Zhang Yiyi, Grade 1 (2), dormitory number is the same as that girl just now, also Building 5, Room 106. If you want to stay here.” The registration teacher looked up at the girl in front of him. He had been teaching for more than 20 years and this was the first time he had seen such a beautiful girl, and there was more than one.

Zhang Yi felt a mix of disappointment and relief.

"Thank you, teacher. I'm a day student." She nodded politely.

"Waaaaah~ Luckily, Yi Yi is also in Class 2, otherwise I would have been all alone!" As soon as Zhang Yi Yi left the group, Lin Wanning was so touched that he wanted to hug her.

"Because I made a wish." Zhang Yiyi smiled and gently stroked the girl's hair.

[It's so good to have Wan Ning around!]
"Teacher, I'm also from Licheng Middle School, Class 96, Xiao Ruanwen." It seemed that because Wan Ning and Yi were in the same class, Xiao Ruanwen was also eager to be assigned to the same class as everyone else.

"Xiao Ruanwen, are you from Class 16 of Grade 1? Are you also a day student?" The registration teacher was already somewhat immune to this and simply didn't mention the dormitory number first.

"Wow!!!" Xiao Ruanwen jumped up and down in surprise, her expression as happy as if she had won five million.

"Brother Fan, we're in the same class, Brother Fan!"

Xu Qingfan sighed and rubbed his forehead, pointing at the teacher who was still waiting, indicating that she should be mindful of her image.

"Hehehe, yes, teacher, I'm a day student too!" Xiao Ruanwen realized she had gotten a little too excited and scratched the back of her head shyly with a smile.

"Okay, keep your meal card safe. Once your school card is issued, you can take it to the cafeteria window on the second floor to get a ten-yuan refund."

"Thank you, teacher!" Xiao Ruanwen took the meal card with great energy. She was in the same class as Fan Ge, which made her feel great!

Xia Xiaoxiao watched her departing figure with a hint of envy, and took a step forward with a final hope.

"Xia Xiaoxiao, Class 96, Licheng Middle School." Her voice was flat, trying her best to appear indifferent.

"Is Class 1 of Grade 1 also a day student?"

Although she had expected it, Xia Xiaoxiao's heart still ached as if it were being squeezed when she heard the result.

[Why did I compare myself to him? I should have never written an essay in Chinese class.] She thought with a bit of hindsight.

"I'm a day student, thank you, teacher." Xia Xiaoxiao replied indifferently, her expression showing neither joy nor sorrow.

For some reason, Lin Wanning felt a little happy when he heard that Xia Xiaoxiao was not assigned to Class 16.

She felt bad for thinking that way, so she secretly slapped the back of her hand and greeted Xia Xiaoxiao with a smile: "Hehe~ Xiaoxiao is in Class 1, and Yiyi and I are in Class 2, so we can visit each other more often from now on!"

"Waaah~ I'm in Class 16, which is definitely far from Class 1. I won't be able to go to the bathroom with Xiaoxiao after class anymore." Xiao Ruanwen hugged the girl first.

Xia Xiaoxiao pinched her cheek with a hint of resentment: "Why don't you just have Xu Qingfan accompany you?"

"You brat, what nonsense are you talking about!" She reached out and playfully tickled the girl's armpit, then whispered in her ear, "I'll keep an eye on Brother Fan for you."

"Hmm." Xia Xiaoxin's unhappiness dissipated considerably.

Soon, Wu Lingyu's class assignment results came out, and she was assigned to Class 10 of Grade 1.

As the registration teacher watched the six people leave, she reminisced about the past and felt incredibly envious of Xu Qingfan.

[If I had five female classmates like these to accompany me to high school, I wouldn't have ended up marrying that tigress!]
Today is the school's open day. After registering, the six students did not go straight home, but instead chose to stroll around the campus.

Last time we were pressed for time and didn't have time to check out the teaching building, but now we can go and scout out everyone's classrooms.

Senior high school students have already started school early, so you can often see students wearing school uniforms on the street.

"It's just like our primary school, one building for each grade." The six of them arrived at the foot of the third teaching building, and Xiao Ruanwen looked up and said loudly.

"We were in the same class in elementary school!" Lin Wanning pouted. She and Qingfan were deskmates for six years in elementary school, plus three years in junior high, making it nine years in total. But then they were separated in high school. It felt like you and your best friend had been building up your spark for thousands of days, only to forget to keep it going one day.

Xia Xiaoxiao then had even more to say: "[I've been his deskmate since kindergarten!]"
In short, Xu Qingfan's antics made several girls very unhappy, including Xiao Ruanwen, because she would no longer be able to be close to Xiaoxiao in class!
Xu Qingfan noticed that the looks he was being given were not very friendly, so he used Wu Lingyu as a shield: "Xiaoyu wasn't in the same class as us in elementary school."

Seeing everyone looking at her, Wu Lingyu shrank her neck apologetically.

"Humph~"

The four girls rolled their eyes at Xu Qingfan and turned to go upstairs.

“Xiaoyu is still the best.” Xu Qingfan rubbed Wu Lingyu’s head and took her hand to go upstairs.

"I also want to be in the same class as Fan Ge," Wu Lingyu said softly.

"Huh? What did you say, Xiaoyu?" Xu Qingfan didn't hear clearly and turned his head to ask.

Wu Lingyu tugged at his clothes, mustered her courage, and said again, "I also want to be in the same class as Brother Fan."

Xu Qingfan felt as if Cupid's arrow had struck his heart, because he knew that Xiaoyu would not have expressed her desires unless she had truly been thinking about her day and night.

He finally softened and whispered a promise in the girl's ear: "After the division of arts and sciences in the second year of high school, I will ask the teacher to put us together."

Wu Lingyu's eyes widened in disbelief, her small hands gripping Xu Qingfan's clothes so tightly she forgot to pull away.

She knew that Fan Ge never went back on his promises, so there was no need to ask stupid questions like "Really?"

“Okay!” She looked directly into Xu Qingfan’s eyes and nodded very seriously.

"The second little secret." Xu Qingfan patted the girl's head again.

"Mmm!" Wu Lingyu smiled radiantly in an instant.

"Fan-ge, Xiao-yu, why are you still on the first floor?" Xiao Ruanwen's urging voice came from upstairs.

The two looked at each other and saw smiles in each other's eyes.

"coming!"

[Just be patient for a year!]
Wu Lingyu's eyes regained their color.

“There are five classes on one floor, so Class 16 must be on the fifth floor. I hope I’m not diagonally opposite Xiaoxiao.” Xiao Ruanwen complained after the two reunited.

“Yes, the class arrangement is like a snake, and Class 16 is indeed diagonally opposite Class 1.” Xu Qingfan instantly transformed into a know-it-all again.

"It really is! Waaah~" Xiao Ruanwen hugged Xia Xiaoxiao and cried.

"So Xiaoyu's Class 10 is right above us?" Lin Wanning asked, pointing to the ceiling.

“That’s right, it’s above our heads. If Xiaoxiao encounters a problem she doesn’t know the answer to, she can run up there and ask Xiaoyu.” Xu Qingfan pinched Lin Wanning’s cheek.

"I could have just asked directly," Lin Wanning continued, subtly venting his dissatisfaction. "Luckily, I could have just asked!"

His and Zhang Yiyi's eyes met at that moment, and the girl gave him an apologetic smile, as if she were apologizing for her own immature younger sister.

The more Zhang Yiyi acted this way, the more guilty Xu Qingfan felt.

Because of his own despicable intentions, he forcefully broke up the group of five girls and pretended to be doing it for their own good, when in fact he was just covering up his own guilty conscience.

Maybe I really was wrong.
Xia Xiaoxiao didn't feel a sense of belonging to this new class. To be precise, she didn't feel a sense of belonging to any class without Xu Qingfan.

[Make sure you do poorly on the test when you're divided into arts and science classes in your second year of high school!]
She had thought it through. Not writing the essay might be too fake, but filling in the wrong admission ticket was still acceptable!
"Let's go," Xia Xiaoxiao said after watching Class One for a few minutes.

"Ah."

The layout of each class was the same, and since there were no students yet, there wasn't much to see.

The six of them wandered around more and more casually, and soon arrived at his and Xiao Ruanwen's Class 16.

The previous students have been gone for more than two months, and the classroom is covered in dust. If you lightly scratch the desks and chairs with your finger, you'll get a black, dusty mess.

The girls who originally wanted to experience what it was like to be classmates with Xu Qingfan instantly gave up their desire.

After leaving the classroom, the five of them stood in front of the corridor railing, gazing into the distance where they could see the high-rise buildings of their new residential area.

"It must be beautiful to watch the sunset here at dusk." Lin Wanning glanced at Xiao Ruanwen with a hint of envy, then leaned against the railing, lost in thought, feeling a little depressed.

Zhang Yiyi noticed the loudspeaker hanging overhead and an interesting idea suddenly popped into her head.

"Then Ning can come up and watch the sunset in the evening. It's free," Xu Qingfan said, stroking the girl's hair.

"It's all the same sky, so it's the same no matter where you look at it." Xia Xiaoxiao rolled her eyes.

[I haven't received an invitation from you!]
“Of course it’s different. The higher you stand, the farther you can see. The view from the fifth floor is definitely better than from the second floor. Xiao Xiao, why don’t you come up and see it too?” Xiao Ruanwen invited, linking her arm with hers.

"Hmm." Xia Xiaoxiao gave the stinky dog ​​a reproachful look.

[I only came here because Ruan Wen invited me, not to see you!]
"Hehe~ Then Yi Yi and I will go find Xiao Xiao first, then find Xiao Yu together, and finally come to the fifth floor to find Brother Qing Fan and Ruan Wen!" Although there is still a week before the official start of school, Lin Wanning is already looking forward to it.

"Hmm!" Wu Lingyu felt a little touched; at least everyone hadn't forgotten her.

Just as the five girls were immersed in the beauty of the orange sea, Xu Qingfan suddenly spoke up: "By the way, do you feel like something is missing?"

"Ok?"

"how?"

"Nothing is missing."

The five tilted their heads in confusion, but Wu Lingyu was the first to react, exclaiming, "Xiaobai!"

"Fuck!"

"Little White is missing!"

The six people looked at each other in bewilderment, and after a moment, they all rushed downstairs at the same time.

"noob!"

"Dead dog!"

"noob!!"

After running down one floor, the six of them shouted at the silent campus.

Soon, a loud bark answered: "Woof woof!"

"noob!"

"Wang Wang Wang!"

The group exchanged glances and called out as they searched for the source of the sound.

They quickly found the dead dog downstairs in the girls' dormitory.

"Fuck!"

The six of them stared at each other wide-eyed, but Xu Qingfan couldn't help but shout it out first.

Because at this moment, Xiaobai is riding on a foreign woman—no, a foreign dog.

That's not the key point. The key point is that this little white thing was already sterilized!

Upon seeing his masters arrive, the dead dog not only refused to get off the Samoyed, but instead grinned at them.

Xu Qingfan picked up a branch from the ground, and the dog's smile vanished instantly. It whimpered as it got off the Samoyed.

"Ow~"

Fortunately, the Samoyed's owner must have gone inside to visit the dormitory, but simply tied the dog to the door.

All six of them felt ashamed, and before the other party's owner returned, they quickly led Little White away.

"Damn it, it's been castrated and it's still showing off like this. What can you do? Spit on other people?" Xu Qingfan said, slapping the dog as he spoke. He was helpless. How could he, a respectable gentleman, have such a slutty dog?

“There are only two dogs at home, they must have learned it from someone!” Xia Xiaoxiao also found it funny and said with a pursed mouth.

"Yes, he must have learned it from someone!"

Without a doubt, it must have been Xiao Ruanwen who said it; only these two in the family dare to speak to Xu Qingfan like that.

"Fine, you dare to slander me as a gentleman!" Xu Qingfan handed the dog leash to Lin Wanning, then swung the stick and began to whip Xiao Ruanwen and Xia Xiaoxiao.

"Ahhh~ Don't force me to take action, Brother Fan. If I knock you down in public, you'll lose face!" Xiao Ruanwen retorted while dodging Xu Qingfan's attacks.

Xia Xiaoxiao simply ignored it. Anyway, it wouldn't hurt if she was spanked, so she just treated it as playing with that immature brat.

"Hahaha, what a joke! I, Yin Zhiping of the Quanzhen Sect, am not afraid of you!"

"Brother Fan, you still dare to call yourself a gentleman? Bah! I think you just want to be a dragon knight!" Xiao Ruanwen covered her butt and ran away.

"Hahaha! I'm going to beat you up, Little Dragon Girl!"

"Hmm?" The four girls cast strange glances at them.

Xu Qingfan's smile froze on his face, and he said awkwardly, "Haha, just kidding. I was talking about the real historical figure Yin Zhiping, who never coveted fame or fortune and was content with a simple life. He was a true gentleman!"

Xia Xiaoxiao left her with a high ponytail, then pulled Wu Lingyu along and walked away.

"So Brother Qingfan likes Little Dragon Girl!" Lin Wanning wrinkled his cute nose and pulled Zhang Yiyi away.

"Hey! I was just kidding!" Xu Qingfan shouted at the backs of the five girls.

However, no one responded to her; instead, they all tacitly started to run away.

He and Xiaobai, the dog, were left standing there alone.

"Run, everyone! That big bad guy Yin Zhiping is coming after us!"

"Hahaha"
