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

“Right, that’s right…”

"Oh my god, what a coincidence! How did you know it was mine?"

"I saw... I saw your circle of friends. I'm really sorry about this."

Guo Yun seemed very embarrassed. "Because I have your selfie, and you said you went to an experimental middle school, I knew it was you... Boys don't seem to change much in appearance."

"You've changed a lot. You can't even tell with your glasses on."

"I just wear glasses..."

Guo Yun scratched her head and smiled a little embarrassedly, "I am still the same fat, ugly, dead fat woman as before."

"Hey, how can someone talk about himself like that? You're a weird person, haha."

Lin Youxi smiled and said, "I think you are cute. Being fat is not a big deal. There are boys who like chubby girls."

"Thank you, thank you for comforting me, but I am aware of whether anyone likes me or not. If you ask Mei Fang, you will know how annoying I was in class before."

"I don't think you're annoying...it's just that your homeroom teacher is rude to you."

Mei Fang was talking when she suddenly realized, "I remember now. One time you didn't bring money to buy lunch, so I lent you money to buy some bread. You returned the money the next day and gave me an extra bottle of milk... Oh, and one more thing, you wrote me a postcard when you left, right?"

Guo Yun stared at Mei Fang in surprise, "How come you remember all these things..."

"Because you said in the letter that I was your best friend at school, I was surprised."

Mei Fang scratched his head. "I'm actually quite embarrassed. I didn't do anything to help you... When others bullied you, I didn't stand up to protect you..."

"No, that's not the case... It's not just about lending me money."

Guo Yun said to Mei Fang excitedly, "Everyone called me a fat woman and looked down on me when I sat at the same table with anyone else. Only when I sat at the same table with you did you treat me like a classmate. Under that situation, you were really nice to me."

"Indeed, we, Ah Fang, are not the kind of people who would go along with others and curse at others."

Lin Youxi smiled and said, "So you two have this kind of fate. Then you should reminisce and have a good chat."

"Sorry, we've finished talking." Guo Yun coughed a few times, "Let's talk about outsourcing."

"You don't have to look at the atmosphere like that. I don't mean to be jealous or upset."

Lin Youxi smiled and sighed, "Afang and I are not in a relationship, don't take it too seriously."

"No, isn't it? I think you two seem..."

“It just looks like it.”

Lin Youxi patted Mei Fang's shoulder and said, "Because you are childhood sweethearts, it seems that you have a very good relationship."

Mei Fang was also a little unhappy when she heard this, "How can kindergarten classmates be considered childhood sweethearts——"

"Why doesn't kindergarten count? Huh?"

Lin Youxi and Mei Fang started joking and quarreling here. Guo Yun looked at the queen Lin Youxi who was full of feminine charm and suddenly felt infinite envy.

She is really, really beautiful.

Such a beautiful person is talking to me, doesn't she think I look disgusting...

I always feel like I'm in a dream...

And he is also——

Guo Yun never thought that she would see Mei Fang again.

Because throughout Guo Yun's student years, she experienced many dark moments due to her obesity.

I transferred schools many times in junior high school, and even had to drop out of high school and stay at home because of all the ridicule and exclusion.

Therefore, the time she spent sitting at the same table with Mei Fang seemed extremely precious in her memory.

"Alright, alright...you guys go order something to eat first. It's a rare trip for you to come to Yangcheng, so I'll treat you today."

"Ah, I need to clarify this with you. This is not a special trip."

Mei Fang explained, "We came to Yangcheng for a team-building tour, and we came to see you by the way. We exaggerated because we saw that you were reluctant to meet us."

"Are you willing to tell me the truth so gently...really, I really appreciate it!"

Guo Yun always started to thank Mei Fanglin Youxi while talking, and the feeling of licking her too much really made people feel a little uncomfortable.

But the two didn't say much about it. After ordering the food, they started talking about the design of the characters.

"For the male lead, you can design it based on the common male lead designs in 2D games. As for the two female leads... I suggest that the first female lead has pink hair, which will better show her pure and sweet personality. Clear blue eyes will make people like her very much."

"For the second female lead, it would be better to have a black and straight long hair, hmm..."

Lin Youxi interrupted and said, "Actually, you can just paint according to your impression of me. I have traditional long black straight hair."

"Yeah... I think... you're as pretty as the characters in the anime."

"Thank you."

Lin Youxi smiled and said, "By the way, speaking of which, you are so sweet and generous, how come you don't have any friends around you? It's so strange."

"I find it strange too." Mei Fang nodded. "You seem to be a bit socially anxious. Do you not often go out to eat and meet people?"

Guo Yun hummed and mumbled and nodded, and finally touched her face shyly and said, "Actually, this is my first time going out this year."

"First time? No way, it's already March or April."

"Because I'm a fat, ugly, shut-in who stinks. I have to spray a lot of perfume to cover up the stench. People who see me will despise me and think I'm disgusting. Except for my parents, no one likes me in real life. No one, no one, not a single one."

Guo Yun said the most self-deprecating words in an almost crazy tone, "I know that my existence in this world is a mistake, but I still want to live... because my parents still care about me, and I have some fans online who like my work, so I actually prefer the feeling of being online. I hope that my appearance today did not disgust you."

"It's not that serious...Guo Yun, don't be like this."

After she explained her situation, Lin Youxi and Mei Fang gradually realized how much psychological pressure Guo Yun had endured in order to treat them to this meal.

Their views of her also changed immediately.

next time……

If it's not necessary, it's better not to ask her out, right?

After discussing the role requirements with Guo Yun, Mei Fang and Lin Youxi sighed for a long time on the way back to Pengcheng.

Lin Youxi said: "Actually, she is not as ugly as she said she was. She just needs to be thinner."

"In fact, she wasn't as fat as she is now in junior high school."

Mei Fang thought for a moment, "I felt that at that time, everyone from the head teacher to many boys and girls in the class were not so friendly to her, and she herself had a low self-esteem, so she became more and more withdrawn... and more and more low self-esteem."

"At least you didn't dislike her. She always remembers you."

Lin Youxi smiled gently and said, "If she can lose weight, I don't think she will be that ugly. At least her facial features are there, and she should be a beauty."

"What...are you trying to help me find a date again?" Mei Fang showed a look of disdain, but Lin Youxi smiled calmly:

"Even if I have to leave you, I want to see you happy."

"I'm happy to be with you."

Lin Youxi put her hand above Mei Fang's shoulder and said, "You want me to take a picture here and see if you can say happiness?"

"Okay, go ahead and take the photo."

"Humph... you are such a masochist."

Some time after returning to Pengcheng, Guo Yun sent Mei Fang character sketches of the male and female protagonists in kindergarten, elementary school, junior high school and high school. This work efficiency can be said to be quite amazing.

"Wow, Ah Fang, look at her. She drew Yuan Yuan so cute. Even a strict Yuan Yuan fan like me would love her. Ah Fang, do you like her?"

"Ah? What are you talking about?" Mei Fang smiled, "I am a very loyal man."

"Hahahaha, I just want to see how loyal you are! Look at me tickling you!"

Lin Youxi and Mei Fang made a fuss on the bed for a while, and then Lin Youxi hugged Mei Fang.

"Afang, there's a new anime based on a game theme that's very popular recently. Do you want to watch it together? It's a work by Trigger."

"You mean the anime adapted from Cyberpunk 2077? I quite like the setting of Night City."

Mei Fang thought for a moment and said, "But you don't really like science fiction stories like these...cyberpunk, dystopia, etc."

"It's nice to change your taste occasionally. I'd get bored if I always watched the same type of thing."

So Mei Fang and Lin Youxi started to refer to anime. They recently bought a lazy sofa. Mei Fang sat on the lazy sofa and sank into it, while Lin Youxi sat on Mei Fang and sank into it.

The cyberpunk capitalist world shown at the beginning of this series makes people feel deeply fearful, and also indignant about the various unfortunate experiences of the male protagonist.

Mei Fang started to analyze after watching the first few episodes, "But the overall story structure is actually a very good work. The male protagonist encounters unfair treatment, his mother sacrifices himself, and when he is desperate to end everything, he meets the female protagonist, and obtains the power of inheritance that can change his situation, a special power that only he can control, and then joins a secret organization."

"I think so too, but I think the heroine Lucy is very cool. Does Fang like such cool girls?"

"I can't say I hate it. It's really charming."

"Then I'll find you a reliable one next time."

"It's also cool when we have Xi's attacks."

"You deserve a beating, don't you?"

Mei Fang and Lin Youxi were watching the animation series in a leisurely mood, and as they watched, they discovered that the rhythm of the story started to become a little off.

"No way... my brother died here?"

“It feels like surgery is needed.”

"I'm going to... get together!"

"Wow... Why is Mann like this?"

"Fang, don't you think this cyber disease is very similar to my bipolar disorder?"

"How are they similar? Are they both mentally ill?"

"Haha, that's the tune..."

In the second half of the plot, Lin Youxi and Mei Fang suddenly lost the mood to joke and focused on watching this tragic story to its end.

Night City... has no living legends.

Mei Fang and Lin Youxi watched the end of the story in one breath. Mei Fang and Ge You collapsed on the lazy sofa, and Lin Youxi and Ge You collapsed in Mei Fang's arms. Both of them felt a huge sense of emptiness and powerlessness, and their upset mood could not be calmed down for a long time.

"Afang."

"how."
