Damn it, I'm surrounded by childhood sweethearts

"Sss~"

"What's up with Brother Fan?" Wu Lingyu asked, puzzled.

"Ha... A mosquito."

If anyone in the world didn't want mosquitoes to go extinct, it would probably be sleazy men.

"I brought mosquito repellent!" Wu Lingyu took out a portable bottle of mosquito repellent from his pocket and sprayed a few times toward the three of them.

Xia Xiaoxiao glared at him but didn't speak.

"Look over there..." Xu Qingfan suddenly looked toward a spot, then the rest of what he wanted to say got stuck in his throat.

"What's over there?"

"Where?"

[That's where Wanning and I kissed last time!]

Xu Qingfan secretly wiped off some sweat, "It looks like a rat just ran over there, watch your feet."

"Ah!" Xia Xiaoxiao, hearing this, immediately scurried into his arms in fear.

Wu Lingyu, who had battled plenty of rats in the handshake buildings when he was a child, wasn't scared.

"Let's not go this way, let's get out of here fast." Xia Xiaoxiao clung to Xu Qingfan's arm in a panic, warily looking around.

"Okay, okay, it's crowded outside though." Xu Qingfan chuckled secretly.

"Let's go quickly!"

Ultimately, the fear of rats outweighed her shyness, and Xia Xiaoxiao quickened her pace, pulling Xu Qingfan away from the small grove.

Wu Lingyu gave Xu Qingfan a strange look, Yu had already seen through everything, but Yu kept silent.

Once they were back in the crowded area, passersby immediately turned their gazes toward them.

Xia Xiaoxiao originally intended to let go of Xu Qingfan's arm, but seeing Yu only holding a naughty dog's hand, she thought it over and decided to just go with it.

[If Yu and the naughty dog are more intimate, passersby will definitely think we are a couple, and Yu is his sister!]

A couple strolling with a sister tagged along is nothing out of the ordinary!

But soon, Wu Lingyu, spotting the hint, also hooked her arm through Xu Qingfan's.

The already eye-catching trio now garnered even more attention.

After walking for a while, Xia Xiaoxiao and Wu Lingyu gradually got used to this way of getting along.

When they reached the middle of the bridge, Xu Qingfan felt the timing was right and ventured, "Do you think we'll still stroll in the park like this when we are old?"

Wu Lingyu's breath hitched, thinking, Brother Fan really dares to say it!

Xia Xiaoxiao almost blurted out "We definitely will", looking passionately at Xu Qingfan, then remembered Yu was still there!

"???"

Recalling that she had just momentarily seen herself in that scenario, Xia Xiaoxiao darkened with embarrassment and annoyance:

"I think this is better, when we're old we'll all sit in wheelchairs, you lead, and I, Yu, Ruan Wen, Wanning, and Yiyi follow behind you, like a little train, how about that?"

Xu Qingfan's eyes lit up, "That's a great idea!"

"Good you.... let go!" Xia Xiaoxiao, frustrated, wanted to shake off his hand.

"What's wrong, don't you want to be the leader?" Xu Qingfan pretended to be confused and blinked at her a couple of times.

"Pfft....hahaha..." Wu Lingyu couldn't hold back her laughter and immediately covered her mouth with her hand.

"I want to be your boss!" Xia Xiaoxiao felt she had definitely had a momentary lapse of reason to even imagine Xu Qingfan was about to confess to her.

"Sure, big boss or little boss?"

"What big.... pfft.. you rascal!"

"Why are you angry, isn't it great that we'll all still go to the park together when we're old?" Xu Qingfan decided to quit while he was ahead.

"Hmph~"

Xia Xiaoxiao turned her head away, indicating that this princess didn't want to deal with you.

"Yu, do you think it's a good idea?" Xu Qingfan then turned his head to ask Yu.

"Ah...." Wu Lingyu nervously glanced at Xia Xiaoxiao, meeting Xu Qingfan's firm gaze, saying, "I think it's a great idea, because... because we've been together since elementary school, middle school, and now high school."

"So when we're old, we'll definitely still be together!"

"That's what I think too, friendship lasts forever!" Xu Qingfan nodded enthusiastically.

Xia Xiaoxiao:...

Wu Lingyu:...
