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

"…You are the idiot."

Mei Fang and Xia Yuan bickered for a few words before turning off the lights and lying down on the bed.

Today Xia Yuan did not mention to Mei Fang to move the mirror very close.

This is also a very relieved thing for Mei Fang.

Because he didn't understand himself a little bit.

……

Don't be fooled by her cute appearance!

She is just a ten-year-old elementary school student.

What on earth am I so excited about? I...

Mei Fang covered his face, unable to believe that he was thinking like this.

But, what she just said.

Yes, that's what I mean...

Otherwise, what's the point.

But don’t you feel like you deserve to die?

She can only rely on you and Youxi.

Just because it happens to be yours.

It’s just, it’s just because it’s you.

No matter it is fate, or existence.

If it happens to be someone else, then it is someone else.

Mei Fang has never denied himself as much as he did today.

the next day.

When Mei Fang was called out of bed by Lin Youxi, Xia Yuan was still sleeping. Seeing her sleeping peacefully, Lin Youxi felt much more relieved.

However, Mei Fang looked like——

He just looked very tired.

"Did you not sleep well last night? You look so haggard..."

"Well, a little bit—"

"You are taking care of Yuanyuan, thank you for your hard work."

Lin Youxi said.

……

……

!!!

Beads of sweat appeared on Mei Fang's forehead.

But fortunately, it was still daybreak and Lin Youxi couldn’t see it.

"Okay, okay, let's get ready. We are going to Jiangcheng."

Mei Fang had already told her mother about going to Jiangcheng with Lin Youxi before taking a bath last night.

Then Xiang Xiaoxia stuffed another thousand yuan into her son's pocket and told him not to save it and to spend it when necessary. Mei Fang didn't say much at that time, and she spoke very quietly when she left today.

Lin Youxi and Mei Fang arrived at the bus station in Baimei County, had breakfast together in front of the station, and then Lin Youxi gave Mei Fang two hundred yuan.

"I have money on me."

"I can't always use all your money. My dad also gives me money. You decide how to spend it, right?"

Lin Youxi's tone was firm, so Mei Fang didn't know what to say.

On the bus, Lin Youxi and Mei Fang, who were traveling far away for the first time, had no interest in the scenery along the way. Lin Youxi was a little carsick, and Mei Fang watched her endure it. When they arrived at a service station, she took her off to walk around and get some fresh air, which made Lin Youxi feel much better.

Today, Mei Fang seemed particularly considerate and caring towards Lin Youxi. Although Lin Youxi felt a little strange, she didn't think too much about it.

Xia Yuan remembered the address of her grandmother's house very clearly, and even had some relevant transportation route maps, so Mei Fang and Lin Youxi quickly found the address leading to Xia Yuan's grandmother's house.

My grandma's house is located in the suburbs of Jiangcheng, and it takes a lot of time to get there by car.

Neither of them was in the mood to eat lunch, and it took several hours by bus and city bus to reach their destination.

It was already dusk when they arrived at Xia Yuan's grandmother's house. The small houses in the suburbs had already started preparing dinner, but the small courtyard represented by the house number that Mei Fang and Lin Youxi found was pitch black, without any smell of fireworks.

Doesn’t Grandma Yuanyuan live here anymore?

Lin Youxi obviously didn't want to make such a wasted trip, so she wanted to climb over the fence and enter her grandmother's yard.

Mei Fang stopped Lin Youxi who wanted to rush into the yard and said, "I'll go ask the neighbors nearby. Don't be so anxious..."

"Can I not be anxious..."

Lin Youxi was already very tired and pale from the long journey, but she still said to Mei Fang very seriously, "Yuanyuan may not always exist in that mirror. Her current weakness is proof of that. We must find a way to rescue her. At least now there is still room for effort and improvement, just - cough, cough cough - vomit -"

Lin Youxi was retching due to motion sickness. Mei Fang was very concerned when she saw this. She took Lin Youxi to the side to induce vomiting and handed her some water.

Seeing how worried she was about Yuanyuan, Mei Fang also felt deeply guilty for his improper thoughts about Xia Yuan.

Now Yuanyuan hasn't been rescued yet, and I'm still having evil thoughts.

I was such a born.

Mei Fang suddenly took a deep breath, stood up, and then spoke.

"Anyway, I'll go in and investigate, Youxi."

"You're going in alone? Aren't you afraid?"

Lin Youxi still remembers Mei Fang's performance in Xia Yuan's house.

"Now that you're here, it's too shameful to just leave without going in to take a look—"

"I will go with you."

Lin Youxi grabbed Mei Fang's trouser leg and tried to get up, and this time he almost pulled Mei Fang's trousers off.

So Mei Fang quickly pulled up his pants and said:

"Look at yourself. You're so weak. Let me go first."

Mei Fang asked Lin Youxi to wait outside, and then he tried hard to climb over the fence of Xia Yuan's grandmother's house. After entering, he saw that the small vegetable garden in the yard was deserted, and it seemed that no one had taken care of it for a long time.

……

As the sky was getting dark, the house in front of them became even more eerie.

"anyone there?"

Mei Fang knocked on the door of the house.

"Excuse me, is this Grandma Xia Yuan's house?"

Still, no response.

Mei Fang breathed a sigh of relief.

He has a lot on his mind right now.

The first meeting with Xia Yuan and the first acquaintance with Lin Youxi.

He thinks Xia Yuan and Lin Youxi are both very good girls.

It’s a pleasure to meet them.

Sometimes I wonder how I can be so lucky to know them and meet them.

But, if you think about it carefully.

I guess it’s not entirely due to luck.

I also worked hard.

In every sense.

Don't underestimate yourself.

At least, this moment is the time to test your responsibility as a man.

Seeing that there was no response, Mei Fang knocked on the door one last time.

"excuse me!"

Mei Fang tried to push the door hard.

The door wasn't locked either.

The yard of Xia Yuan’s grandmother’s house is a very simple rural house. There is a square table at the entrance with a landscape painting hanging on it.

There was a dark red lamp lit next to the landscape painting, and on the lamp was a shrine that looked like a spirit tablet. There was also a photo in the shrine, but the light was dim and the content inside could not be seen clearly.

Although the yard looked bleak, it was still powered by electricity, which meant, this also meant -

Mei Fang was looking for a place to turn on the light in the living room. As he was searching, he suddenly touched a shriveled object that looked like a palm.

Yes, it's the hands.

hand?

Mei Fang looked at the silhouette in front of him. The lights outside the house flashed by, and what suddenly appeared in front of him was a strange statue that looked like a mummy. The face was blurred as if it had been eroded by running water. Mei Fang was immediately frightened out of his wits. He wanted to scream but dared not make a sound.

At this moment, Mei Fang was suddenly patted hard on the shoulder.

A very, very strong slap.

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!"

Mei Fang subconsciously shouted out in a vain voice—

Then, the lights in the house were turned on.

"Hey, kid, keep your voice down and stop shouting. I'm not a ghost. You're deafening me."
