After rebirth, I found out that I have a childhood sweetheart

"No, I told you not to hit on me."

"If I can't have any ideas about you, can anyone else?"

Mei Fang stared into Lin Youxi's eyes, and this time neither of them looked away.

"Are you jealous?"

"Well," Mei Fang nodded, "Is it not possible?"

Lin Youxi smiled and shook her head. Before Mei Fang could continue speaking, she held Mei Fang's cheek and kissed her directly.

The two men's unscrupulous behavior soon attracted warnings from the high-speed rail crew.

"Hey, hey, you two, behave yourself on the high-speed train! This is a public place!"

"Yeah, sorry!"

Mei Fang and Lin Youxi got off the high-speed rail station, and after a busy security check, they finally set foot on the land of Baimei County.

"Wow! This new high-speed railway station is really well built. It's much better than the shabby train station before."

Lin Youxi and Mei Fang left the station, breathing in the air of Baimei County greedily. Then he tilted his head and looked at Mei Fang and said:

"It's been a long time since I came back. Is Pan's Beef Noodles still open? I want to go eat there."

"It's open."

Mei Fang said as she pushed her suitcase, "If you want to go out to eat, why don't you come back?"

"It's boring to eat alone. I used to eat with Yuanyuan and my dad, but now it's fine if you accompany me."

Lin Youxi asked as they walked, "Ah Fang, what kind of people are your parents?"

"What kind of person is this..."

Mei Fang thought for a moment, "My dad is quite lively, but he seems a bit unreliable... My mom is a bit controlling, but she's also reasonable. She sometimes likes to use force, but she's probably gotten better in the past few years. But generally speaking, my parents are honest people, and they're easy to get along with."

"You've been single since birth, so it's been a while since you brought a girl home?"

"What do you mean by a long time..."

Mei Fang corrected Lin Youxi's statement, "It has never happened before, okay!"

"Okay, never before!"

Lin Youxi and Mei Fang were chatting and laughing when suddenly someone patted Mei Fang's head hard from behind:

"Hey kid! Didn't you see dad at all? You didn't even respond when he greeted you!"

"Damn... Dad, you scared me to death—"

The thinning-haired man who appeared in front of Mei Fang and Lin Youxi was Mei Lijun. He looked dark-skinned and had many wrinkles on his face, all signs of hard work, but he still looked energetic. "Come, I'll carry your luggage for you."

"Didn't you say you don't have to answer it?"

"I haven't been back for a long time. I want to give you a surprise, right?"

"I don't need such a surprise."

Mei Fang and his father were bickering with each other as usual, and for a moment he forgot to introduce Lin Youxi to his father. Lin Youxi finally caught a chance to go up and say hello when the father and son were talking.

"...Hello, uncle."

"Hello, hello! You are the friend that Mei Fang mentioned, right?"

Mei Lijun really didn't expect that his son would bring back such a beautiful friend of the opposite sex. After being stunned for a while, he scratched his head and agreed in Mandarin, "Welcome, welcome to Baimei County!"

"Dad! Didn't I tell you that Youxi is originally from Baimei County, there's no need for that!"

"Ahh, I forgot about that when I got nervous."

"You can still be nervous..."

Mei Fang felt that his father had been embarrassed and went over to apologize to Lin Youxi:

"Sorry, that's just how my dad is."

"Why apologize..."

Lin Youxi whispered to Mei Fang, "I think your father is very cute."

Mei Fang knew that Lin Youxi was always a bad woman who liked to tease him, but she was particularly reserved in front of her elders, which was indeed beyond his expectations.

Mei Lijun led Mei Fang to his motorcycle. Mei Fang was stunned when he saw it. "You don't want to take us back on your motorcycle, do you?"

"It's nothing, there's room for you." Meilijun patted his motorcycle, "My motorcycle has super high horsepower, and it hasn't broken down in more than ten years!"

"Oh, how can we fit the luggage? We can't just carry it all the way back! You can ride your bike back by yourself, and at most you can help carry the luggage, and we can just take a taxi back."

"I'm here now, let me pick you up!"

"It's inconvenient to say it——"

"It's okay, Fang! Just take the motorcycle."

Lin Youxi suddenly became very easy to talk to and very gentle, "Let's carry our suitcases and squeeze in together."

"Well, then..."

Mei Fang and Lin Youxi got into Mei Lijun's car one after another, holding their luggage and hanging on the side.

Mei Fang felt embarrassed that he was inviting Lin Youxi home when he didn't even have a car at home.

"Youxi, be careful when you get on a motorcycle. Don't touch the exhaust port. I've been burned by the exhaust port several times before, and a layer of my skin was burned off."

"I know, I know. When I used to ride my dad's motorcycle, he always reminded me of this."

Lin Youxi stuck close behind Mei Fang, holding the suitcase with one hand in the air, looking a little tired.

Seeing this, Mei Fang took the box from her and said, "Let me do it. Let me do it."

"Well... then I will -"

Lin Youxi hugged Mei Fang from behind, hugging him tightly. The feeling of his chest against his back made Mei Fang's heart beat fast. Lin Youxi even leaned close to Mei Fang's ear.

"When I was in middle school, my dad always rode his bike to take me to school like this."

"Uh... yeah."

"Hold on tight, the weather doesn't look very good right now, let's get going!"

The Meli army pedaled their motorcycle engines, making a terrible whirring sound.

The motorcycle started moving, and Lin Youxi hugged Mei Fang, who was carrying the suitcase with both hands, and put her hand on his arm to help him reduce some of the weight.

"Will this be better?"

"Um……"

Lin Youxi leaned on Mei Fang's shoulder, squinting at the street scene of the town.

The evening breeze was blowing, the setting sun stretched the silhouette of the motorcycle infinitely, and in the distance I could faintly hear the familiar rural accent of hawking. Everything seemed so distant and so vague.

Have I really lived on this land for eighteen years?

Lin Youxi had only been away from home for ten years, but the first eighteen years of her life seemed like a dream to her.

"Do you still have any impression of this street here?"

"Everything has changed." Lin Youxi shook her head. "It's changed so much..."

Meilijun said as he rode his bike, "Yes, this street has been newly renovated. The roads are much wider than before, and many places are no different from the big cities in Pengcheng!"

Lin Youxi listened to Mei Lijun talking about the past, looked at the street scenes on the side of the road, and suddenly said to Mei Fang.

"Afang."

"how?"

"There used to be a big, high-end hotel at the intersection ahead. Do you remember it?"

"Forehead……"

"Oh, you mean 'Baimei Family'! You have a good memory, girl."

Mei Lijun continued, "That hotel used to be the largest and most luxurious hotel in Baimei County. Everyone in Baimei County had eaten there. The food there tasted very good, but it was a pity that it was not well managed, and the road was under construction, so it collapsed later. It's a pity..."

"Dad." Mei Fang reminded Mei Lijun, "Focus on the road and don't get bumped into."

"Oh, by the way, the boss of that shop—"

"Drive well, Dad."

"You didn't even let me finish my words..."

The once glorious Baimei Renjia Hotel has now been replaced by a new hotel called Baimei Building.

There was a lot of traffic and people coming and going, and the area downstairs of the hotel in Baimei Building was full of cars.

The glorious achievements and sad stories of the past have become topics of conversation for others after dinner. How many people would be like Lin Youxi, missing her childhood playmate for the rest of her life?

Whenever he thought of this, Mei Fang would only feel extremely distressed, and would just want to try harder to hold Lin Youxi, who was holding his hand.

As the three of them were driving, a light drizzle suddenly began to fall from the sky.

"Oh no, it's going to rain."

"I said we should take a taxi back, really..."

"Afang, Afang, please help me carry it for a while. I'll hold the umbrella!"

The summer rainy season in Baimei County is unpredictable, and a drizzle suddenly turns into a downpour. The umbrella held up by Lin Youxi is simply not enough to shield the three of them from the wind and rain. The three of them rushed into the alley in the pouring rain and finally arrived at Mei Fang's hometown.

Mei Lijun hurriedly stopped the car, and Lin Youxi jumped out first to carry Mei Fang's luggage. At this time, an aunt also walked over quickly with an umbrella, helping Lin Youxi to block the wind and rain and said:

"I told you to bring a raincoat, but you let the kids take a taxi when it's raining so hard. Really——"

Lin Youxi, who was soaked like a drowned chicken, wiped her face, and the auntie next to her quickly handed her a dry towel to wipe it.

"My child, you are in trouble."

Lin Youxi shyly accepted the other person's wiping. This was a rare experience for her. After her face was wiped clean, she hurriedly greeted the other person.

"Ah, hello, Auntie!"

The one who was greeting Lin Youxi at this time was Mei Fang's mother Xiang Xiaoxia. Time had left many traces on her face. Now she was an ordinary middle-aged woman, but her eyes full of wrinkles looked very beautiful and bright. It could be seen that she was a beautiful woman when she was young.

When Lin Youxi first met this aunt, she suddenly felt very familiar.
