I have few friends, but many childhood sweethearts.

Chapter 435. A Beautiful Misunderstanding

During the remaining two evening self-study sessions, Xu Qingfan finished copying the homework he was supposed to hand in, and as usual, he carefully reviewed the company reports that Lin Juan had sent via email.

In just a few days, with 30 million downloads and millions of registrations, Haoweiyun has clearly established a foothold on the mobile platform.

However, since other music platforms started pirating "Misplaced Time and Space", Haoweiyun's registration and download numbers have been significantly hampered recently.

However, he had anticipated this, and it seems it's time to let the competitors know the strength of Pizza Hut in Licheng.

[Let's start sending lawyer's letters as a warning.]

After sending the message to Lin Juan, Xu Qingfan put away his phone.

Xiao Ruanwen tidied her desk early, put on her schoolbag, and waited for the school bell to ring before pulling Xu Qingfan home.

[Ring ring ring—]

"Let's go, let's go, Brother Fan, hurry up!" After sweating profusely from yoga and feeling sticky all night, Xiao Ruanwen couldn't wait to go home and take a shower.

Xu Qingfan had just picked up his schoolbag when she suddenly pulled him up and ran after him.

"I'm leaving, see you tomorrow." He said goodbye to his team members one last time, and the next second, he had disappeared around the corner.

Wang Xuan raised her hand but forgot to put it down, and the words "See you tomorrow" stuck in her throat, unable to be finished.

When the two arrived at Class 10, Wu Lingyu was still packing her schoolbag at her seat.

"Xiaoyu!"

Suddenly she heard someone calling her. She looked up and saw Xiao Ruanwen waving at her from outside the window, and Fan Ge was there too!

"Almost done!" Wu Lingyu quickened her packing time and soon slung her backpack over her shoulder and jogged over.

The two girls stood on either side of Xu Qingfan, and the three of them left together, attracting curious glances from many people.

After waiting for Wan Ning and Xiao Xiao on the second floor, the six of them went downstairs in a relaxed formation.

"Brother Qingfan, the first season of our rabbit is almost finished. Come and take a look this week!" After getting away from the crowd, Lin Wanning shook his arm with both hands.

"Then I'll come and see if I'll still get paid since I did so little work this time," Xu Qingfan and Zhang Yi exchanged a smile.

"I'll definitely give it to the duck! We'll divide it into three portions, one for me, one for Yi Yi, and one for Brother Qing Fan!" Lin Wanning said, wrinkling his nose.

"Oh right, Brother Fan, didn't you say I get paid for my singing copyrights? Where's the money?" Xiao Ruanwen asked, shrugging as she remembered this.

Xu Qingfan slapped her hand away: "We're all so familiar with each other, why would I be afraid of taking advantage of you?"

"Hehe, how could that be? Brother Fan isn't that kind of person!"

Xu Qingfan, looking like a teachable child, retorted, "That's more like it. The copyright fee is 100,000, and you need to recharge 1 million to activate it. Pay up."

"No, you, you, you!"

"Waaaaah~ Little Xiao bullied me!"

Unable to defeat Xu Qingfan, Xiao Ruanwen sought refuge with Xia Xiaoxiao.

Remembering how kind Ruan Wen had been to her, Xia Xiaoxiao met Xu Qingfan's gaze and straightened her back: "Give me the money!"

Remembering the vow he had made not long ago, Xu Qingfan decided not to tease her anymore: "I already transferred the money to Ruan Wen's card and sent her a text message, but she didn't see it herself."

"Huh? Did you receive a text message?"

Despite her confusion, Xiao Ruanwen immediately took out her phone to look for the text messages.

Soon, a girl's exclamation rang out behind Xu Qingfan.

"Ahhh~ I've got it! I've got it!"

"Haha, Mom, I made money!"

The four girls curiously gathered around to look, and sure enough, they saw the message "Bank X received 100000.00 yuan" in the text message.

"Alright, you don't understand the saying 'don't flaunt your wealth,' let's talk about it when we get home," Xu Qingfan interrupted.

"Hehe~ Thanks, Brother Fan!"

Xiao Ruanwen instinctively wanted to run up and kiss him, but just as she started to tiptoe, she suddenly felt a chill down her spine.

"I'll treat everyone to a big meal this weekend!" She stopped abruptly and turned to look at the four of them.

"Hehe, okay!"

"eat!"

"Ah."

Seeing Xia Xiaoxiao nod at her, Xiao Ruanwen secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Without stopping, the six of them quickly returned home.

After taking their showers, with an hour to go before 11:30 p.m., the six of them sat in the living room in their pajamas watching TV.

Xu Qingfan simply stir-fried a few appetizers for a late-night snack, drank cola with ice, and blasted the air conditioner at a temperature of over ten degrees Celsius. He was enjoying his life to the fullest.

There weren't many good TV dramas left late at night, so the six of them mostly chatted, with the TV just serving as background music.

"The sunset is so beautiful today! Fan and Xiaoyu went to see it secretly without telling us!"

As soon as Xiao Ruanwen finished speaking, Xia Xiaoxiao, Lin Wanning, and Zhang Yiyi immediately looked at the two of them.

Wu Lingyu was unaware of the cause and effect of the matter and was too nervous to speak.

"I was doing my homework in class after school, and I ran into Xiaoyu when I went to eat around 6 o'clock. You guys were probably all back in class by then, so I didn't call you."

Xu Qingfan calmly explained.

After confirming that it was only this incident that had been discovered, Wu Lingyu's tense body slowly relaxed.

“When we get back to class, Brother Qingfan can call us ducks too!” Lin Wanning said unhappily.

Although Xia Xiaoxiao and Zhang Yiyi didn't say anything, their expressions conveyed the same meaning.

"Okay, okay, it's my fault. I'll definitely invite you guys next time." Xu Qingfan scratched the back of Lin Wanning's head.

“That’s more like it!” the girls said in unison.

Xu Qingfan glanced furtively at Wu Lingyu, who glared at him reproachfully. [You naughty brother, I already told you it's not allowed at school.]
On Wednesday, I handed the revised lyrics to Principal Lao Deng, and the week passed uneventfully.

Today marks the fifth day since Xu Qingfan successfully abstained from pornography after reflecting on his actions.

His back doesn't ache anymore, his legs don't hurt anymore, and he feels more energetic. Well, he's always been like this.

When the three of them returned home, Lin Jing and Yao Jinping, whom they hadn't seen for a long time, were already home. The aroma of food filled the air as soon as they opened the door.

"You're back." Yao Jinping came out of the kitchen when she heard the voice and saw the three of them.

"Mom, shouldn't we be the ones saying this to you?" Xu Qingfan ran into the kitchen to see what delicious food was available.

"You little brats, I brought you gifts. Come and see if you like them." Yao Jinping smacked the boy and walked towards the two girls with a grin.

"Ok!"

"Thank you, aunt!"

Only Lin Jing was cooking in the kitchen. Xu Qingfan came up behind the aunt to see what was being cooked in the pot.

"Xiao Fan, how's your cooking? Is it alright?" Lin Jing asked her with a smile.

"Of course, that goes without saying. She's a hundred times better than my mom." He deliberately lowered his voice for the last part, making Lin Jing giggle.

"How is your school life? Have you encountered any unpleasant things?"

The food in the pot needed to simmer, so Lin Jing closed the lid and turned to chat with Xu Qingfan.

"What could possibly be unpleasant for me? I eat well and stay in good accommodations. If there's anything wrong, it's that Xia Xiaoxiao is too willful and capricious, and I always have to take care of her!"

He was so familiar with Lin Jing that it was okay to joke around with Xia Xiaoxiao.

"Hehehe~" Lin Jing laughed so hard she was shaking.

Especially since Xu Qingfan would occasionally peek furtively out the door, she could only give him a look of annoyance.

"Then I'll trouble Xiao Fan to take care of Xiao Xiao."

"That's right!"

"Auntie, you took such good care of me when I was little, so of course I have to take good care of Xiaoxiao too!" Xu Qingfan patted his chest and promised.

Lin Jing glared at him and turned back to continue cooking.

[If we're talking about taking care of someone, it seems like Xiao Fan took care of me more.] she thought to herself.

Xu Qingfan stole a piece of beef and left the kitchen, unaware of Lin Jing's thoughts. Even if he did know, he couldn't explain it to her. In his previous life, Lin Jing had truly taken care of him in every way; she was practically his second mother.

"Does Brother Fan look good?" Wu Lingyu wore a silver hair accessory, the tassels making a crisp tapping sound as she walked.

"They're beautiful, beautiful, even the small ones are beautiful, they're all beautiful." Xu Qingfan could tell it was fake silver just by glancing at the metallic sheen. Yao Jinping must have been cheated by a shady merchant at the scenic spot again.

"Here, this is for you. It'll keep you safe. Put it under your pillow." Yao Jinping picked up a silver plaque from the table and handed it to Xu Qingfan.

"Huh~ I have one too?" Xu Qingfan reached out and took it, feeling that it was real silver as soon as he held it in his hand.

Before he could be surprised for long, Xu Qingfan saw Yao Jinping give Xia Xiaoxiao and Wu Lingyu another silver medal, which was more than twice the size of the one in his hand!
"Yours too, put them under your pillows."

"Thank you, Auntie!" Xia Xiaoxiao and Wu Lingyu giggled when they saw Xu Qingfan's embarrassed expression.

After dinner, Xu Qingfan sat at his computer desk working, while Wu Lingyu and Xia Xiaoxiao, as usual, lay on his bed playing on their phones.

As Wu Lingyu watched Xu Qingfan's retreating figure, her cheeks flushed slightly.

Because last week, right here, Xia Xiaoxiao was on the bed, and she was under the bed.

To be honest, Wu Lingyu is a little unaccustomed to Xu Qingfan's sudden change in behavior these past few days.

Before, when I was home alone, they would at least pat my butt, and sometimes they would even pin me against the wall. But these past few days, none of that has happened!
Wu Lingyu felt that Fan Ge had changed, but that was fine too, at least she didn't have to worry about being discovered.

Xia Xiaoxiao also felt that Xu Qingfan had changed. She was surprised to find that Xu Qingfan stopped talking back to her. No matter what she said or did, this stinky dog ​​basically went along with her.

This was something a young girl would never have dared to dream of before. Normally, if Xia Xiaoxiao wanted to go east, the stinky dog ​​would definitely drag her west, no matter why, just to go against her.

To verify that it wasn't just her imagination, Xia Xiaoxiao deliberately tried it a few more times.

For example, if she mentions wanting to eat an apple today, or wants to drink milk tomorrow, Xu Qingfan will buy it for her, even if he doesn't always do so immediately.

After ruling out the possibility that Xu Qingfan had a mental disorder, Xia Xiaoxiao felt that this stinky dog ​​definitely wanted to confess his feelings to her. All he was doing was paving the way for his confession!
[Absolutely!]
Thinking about this, Xia Xiaoxiao also felt that she should treat Xu Qingfan better.

She remembered reading in a book: Giving is mutual!

For example, right now, while the dog is working diligently, she makes a cup of tea and then stands behind Xu Qingfan to give him a massage.

[Won't you be moved to tears?!]
Do it when you think of it.

Under Wu Lingyu's questioning gaze, Xia Xiaoxiao left the room.

Soon, she returned with a cup of freshly brewed tea.

"Have some water," Xia Xiaoxiao said, placing the cup on the computer desk.

Xu Qingfan glanced at Xia Xiaoxiao in astonishment, then glanced at her again.

"Uh, thank you." Not knowing what Xia Xiaoxiao was up to, he could only nod.

Immediately afterward, just when Xu Qingfan thought Xia Xiaoxiao would go back to bed and play on her phone, a pair of hands suddenly landed on his shoulders.

"You can continue. I don't have anything to do anyway, so I'll give you a massage for a while," Xia Xiaoxiao said softly when she saw Xu Qingfan stop typing.

"I'm fine." Xu Qingfan picked up his water glass and took a sip of tea to calm his nerves.

[Has Xia Xiaoxiao been possessed?]
Wu Lingyu, who was lying on the bed hugging her pillow and lost in thought, sat up straight the moment she saw this.

[What's wrong with Xiaoxiao? Should I go and give Fan Ge a massage too?]
"Xiaoxiao?" Xu Qingfan turned around.

"how?"

"Hey, you can keep playing on your phone, I can't concentrate on the massage like this," he said.

"Okay, then tell me when you're tired."

Xia Xiaoxiao felt that Xu Qingfan must not want her to get tired, which was why he said that.

[Hurry up and confess your feelings to me, I'll say yes!]
