I have few friends, but many childhood sweethearts.

Chapter 479. If you can't solve the problem, then solve the person who raised it.

In the few minutes that Xu Qingfan and Wu Lingyu were chatting, Xiao Ruanwen had already bombarded him with 99+ messages.

However, Brother Chou Fan seemed to have vanished into thin air, not replying to a single message.

"You bastard, Fan-ge, you're ignoring me, aren't you!" Xiao Ruanwen was so angry that her chest swelled up, and she immediately made a video call.

The dog of a man, who had just said goodnight to Xiaoyu, felt that he had drunk enough with Ruanwen and was about to reply to her when Xiao Ruanwen's video call request popped up with a "duang".

Xu Qingfan didn't hesitate much and clicked to answer. The first thing he saw on the screen was a barrage of facial cleanser images shoved into his face.

"You stinky, lousy Fan-ge, how dare you ignore me!"

I curse you to never have a seasoning packet when you eat instant noodles, never have toilet paper when you go to the toilet, and never have a can get stuck on the tab when you open it!

Xiao Ruanwen hadn't realized the call had been connected and was still muttering bad things about Brother Fan.

After admiring the beautiful silhouette for a while, Xu Qingfan reminded him, "I'm listening to everything."

"Ah~"

"Why didn't you speak when you answered the phone!"

"And what's with the lubricant? Brother Fan, explain yourself!"

Xiao Ruanwen was startled by his sudden voice. After picking up her phone again, she glared at Xu Qingfan in the camera lens.

After losing the beautiful hemispheres seen from below, Xu Qingfan leaned back away from the screen, and his upper body quickly appeared in the frame.

"I was just brushing my teeth." That scoundrel lied without batting an eye.

"Hmph~ Can't wait to refresh!"

"Tell me quickly, what's this about the lubricant? Xiaoxiao didn't tell me."

Xiao Ruanwen pouted, which meant she accepted his reason.

After hearing what she said, Xu Qingfan subconsciously revealed a malicious smile, but he quickly suppressed it.

"Xiaoxiao didn't tell you, so let's just forget about it. It wouldn't be good for me to tell you secretly." Xu Qingfan's typical green tea response.

Xiao Ruanwen hardened her fist, her expression as if to say: If you still don't understand, Brother Fan, this grandma actually knows a little bit about martial arts.

"Alright, alright, I'll tell you, I'll tell you." Xu Qingfan felt uncomfortable under her gaze and dared not continue to act recklessly.

"Here's what happened, do you remember the housewarming party last time?"

After a long and complicated explanation, the scoundrel repeated the version he had told Xia Xiaoxiao last time to Xiao Ruanwen.

After patiently listening to the whole thing, Xiao Ruanwen couldn't hold back any longer and asked, "What does your buying lubricant to help Wan Ning take off his shoes have to do with Xiao Xiao?"

"Hey~ Ruan Wen, don't rush me, I haven't finished yet!" Xu Qingfan said immediately.

"."

Xiao Ruanwen felt her fists grow even harder.

"The little thing is another matter. Xiaoxiao later found the bottle of lubricant in my drawer, and then came to my room that night and choked me."

The scoundrel rambled on and on, making Xiao Ruanwen almost drowsy. There was none of the explicit content she was hoping for.

"Ha~ Brother Fan, are you done talking? If not, I'm going to sleep." Xiao Ruanwen yawned widely and rubbed her temples as she spoke.

"Hey Ruan Wen, why can't you be a little more patient and let me finish what I have to say?"

"Get to the point, I'm getting to the point this time!"

Xiao Ruanwen reopened her eyes and patiently continued listening.

However, what Xu Qingfan said wasn't the main point; it was about Lin Jing's misunderstanding of him and Xia Xiaoxiao last time.

Xiao Ruanwen could no longer bear it. He was just a withered old man, and there was none of the arousal she had been expecting!

"Goodbye!" she said, then reached out and tapped to hang up.

"Brother Fan, you're definitely just trying to make fun of me!"

"If Auntie starts teasing Fan Ge by asking who he likes the most the day after tomorrow, I'll definitely join in and add fuel to the fire!"

While Xiao Ruanwen was cursing and swearing, it was Xu Qingfan's turn to send a video call request.

After thinking about it, she finally clicked to connect.

"Well, I was just going to explain the background of the story to you!"

"Why can't you let me finish what I have to say!"

Xu Qingfan immediately launched into a tirade of accusations.

"Then hurry up and tell us!" For the first time, Xiao Ruanwen felt that being a gossipmonger was so unbearable.

"Just now, Xiaoxiao took the bottle of lubricant back. She said she couldn't use it by herself."

Xiao Ruanwen's pupils dilated suddenly. After waiting for a while and seeing that Fan Ge had no further response, she hurriedly asked, "And then? And then?"

"And then what? That's it. She's gone home to sleep now. The bottle of lubricant is still in my room." The scoundrel shrugged.

Suddenly, he changed his attitude again, adding righteously and sternly:

"Ruan Wen, you also think she's hinting at me, right? But I've truly turned over a new leaf. I will absolutely not touch that kind of thing before I've made a choice!"

“Xiaoxiao usually sleeps here on Fridays and goes home to sleep on Saturdays. I guess she’s a little angry because I rejected her.”

"Ruanwen, what should I do?"

Xiao Ruanwen has finally gotten her hands on some juicy gossip, and her feelings at this moment are truly indescribable.

[I can't believe Xiaoxiao is being so proactive. Didn't she tell me before that Fan-ge forced her to do this?]
[Was everything Xiaoxiao said before a lie?]
[Xiaoxiao wouldn't lie to me, would she?]
"Ruan Wen?"

"can you hear?"

"Is it stuck?" Seeing that Xiao Ruanwen hadn't responded for a while, Xu Qingfan waved his hand in front of the screen.

"Oh, oh."

"Brother Fan, I know about what happened. I think you did the right thing. This is the Brother Fan I know."

"Yes, I support you."

Xiao Ruanwen stared intently, trying to prove that she wasn't lying.

As she spoke, she switched to her chat page with Fan Ge and opened the chat window with Xia Xiaoxiao.

[Xiaoxiao, are you sleeping at Fan Ge's house tonight, or at your own place?]

“I’m really happy that you think that way, Ruan Wen.”

"If Xiaoxiao could be like you... well, never mind, let's not talk about this."

The scoundrel put on a sad and heartbroken expression.

Unfortunately, Xiao Ruanwen didn't have time to look at him at all; the girl was already chatting with Xia Xiaoxiao.

[I'm sleeping at home, what's wrong with Ruan Wen?] Xia Xiaoxiao just wanted to check her phone a little more before going to sleep.

[Little one, didn't you say last week that you hadn't rewarded Fan Ge in a long time? Why are you home sleeping?]

"Yes, Xiaoxiao is actually a very good person."

While typing a reply to Xia Xiaoxiao, Xiao Ruanwen didn't forget to give perfunctory replies to Fan Ge, who was on a video call.

"I'm just afraid that if I keep refusing her like this, Xiaoxiao will become suspicious."

"Ruanwen, do you think I should talk to her and make things clear?"

Xu Qingfan hadn't yet noticed Xiao Ruanwen's unusual behavior, and continued speaking after she responded.

[When we were walking home from school in the afternoon, Xu Qingfan held my hand. I asked him what our relationship was, and he said we were a couple, but I denied it.]

Then in the evening, he asked me if I planned to date in high school or college. I said I didn't plan to in high school, and he asked me both questions at once. Without thinking, I answered that I didn't plan to.

However, I explained things to him that night. I said I wasn't planning on dating in high school, but if things went well in college, I would date; otherwise, I wouldn't.

【Ruan Wen, are you watching?】

"Ruan Wen, are you listening?"

Xia Xiaoxiao quickly sent her the details of what happened that night, and Xiao Ruanwen immediately typed a reply after seeing the latest message.

[Yes, yes, I'm analyzing it for you, Xiaoxiao, wait a moment.]

"Yes, yes, I'm analyzing it for you, Brother Fan, wait a moment."

Xiao Ruanwen replied to both sides at the same time, continuing to type as she said, "Brother Fan, I think that since you and Xiao Xiao have already gone through that, and Xiao Xiao likes you so much, it would be too much of a jerk to just say it directly. It's not good. Actually, you shouldn't be so fickle. It would be best to just marry Xiao Xiao right now!"

【Xiaoxiao thinks that since you and Fan Ge are already like that, Fan Ge must really like you too, so there's no rush. High school is definitely too early. As for college, I think you can wait until your junior or senior year when your coursework is less busy before establishing a relationship!】

Xiao Ruanwen can be said to be helping both sides. On Xu Qingfan's side, she helps Xia Xiaoxiao with her offensive, while on Xia Xiaoxiao's side, she helps Xu Qingfan with his defensive work.

Xu Qingfan was speechless for a moment after hearing this. Why did Xiao Ruanwen suddenly act out of the ordinary? Shouldn't she be saying, "Brother Fan, it's great that you think this way. I support your idea"?

"Okay then, thank you Ruan Wen, I'll think about it some more."

"Junior or senior year? Thank you, Ruan Wen, I'll think about it some more."

"Hmm, I need to think about it carefully." Xiao Ruanwen ended her conversation with Xia Xiaoxiao and returned to her video call with Brother Chou Fan.

"If Xiaoxiao changes her hints to direct statements next time, do you think I should refuse, Ruan Wen?" Xu Qingfan asked again.

"Um, well, Brother Fan, you'll have to figure that out yourself. I don't know, hmph!"

In the past, Xiao Ruanwen would have answered "no" without hesitation, but because she had just finished talking with Xia Xiaoxiao, the scales were now tipping slightly in Xiaoxiao's favor.

[What did Xiaoxiao do wrong this time? It's all that stinky Fan-ge's fault!]
If Xu Qingfan knew that his outrageous actions tonight not only failed to break up Xia Xiaoxiao and Xiao Ruanwen's fake friendship, but also made Xiao Ruanwen's emotional inclination more towards Xia Xiaoxiao, he would probably only regret that he went too far.

"Hey~ Ruan Wen, you're right, it's all my fault!"

"If I had rejected Xiaoxiao directly on the rooftop back then, none of this would have happened."

"But I really didn't want to ruin our friendship. Now that things have come to this, I can only blame myself for being blinded by greed."

Xu Qingfan felt a wave of self-blame, and as expected, he won back Xiao Ruanwen's favor.

[Yeah, Fan Ge is actually quite innocent. He just didn't want to ruin everyone's friendship, so how can I blame him entirely?]
"Alright, Fan-ge, stop talking. I'll hold off on Xiaoxiao for you. She'll be back in her second year at the latest!"

"By sophomore year at the latest, Fan-ge, you must solve all the problems!"

"Did you hear me!"

Despite her soft heart, Xiao Ruanwen still had a backup plan. She told Xiao Xiao that it would be her junior or senior year, but she gave Chou Fan a final ultimatum: sophomore year, at the latest!
"Okay, Ruanwen, I promise you."

"I will definitely solve this problem by my sophomore year at the latest!"

Xu Qingfan immediately expressed his opinion.

The scoundrel had already come to his senses; who said he had to resolve such a small matter in his sophomore year?

[If I can't solve the problem, I can at least solve the problem of the person who raised it!]
"That's more like it. If you have any questions about Xiaoxiao in the future, just ask me, Fan-ge. Anyway, it's almost midnight, I need to go to sleep!"

"good night!"

After Xiao Ruanwen finished speaking, she hung up the phone, tossed it aside, and flew backwards onto the soft bed like a cannonball.

"It's not even my problem, so why do I feel more tired than the other two?"

[It's all Fan Ge's fault!]
[Little Her.]
A seed of resentment was thus quietly planted in the girl's heart.
