Chapter 280 Hidden Things (Nearly 5,000 words)

When Mei Youyuan and the other three girls came out of the milk tea shop, Lin Youxi suddenly suggested that they want to go back to the junior high school where they studied before, so Mei took the two girls to the Experimental Middle School on an electric car.

It was the winter vacation and the school gate was closed, but after explaining their purpose to the guard, the three of them were let into the school campus.

Mei Fang parked the electric car in the parking lot where they used to park their bicycles. When they parked the car and came out, Xia Yuan and Lin Youxi were sitting on the stone steps nearby, talking and laughing.

"Afang Afang, come here!"

Xia Yuan called Mei Fang to sit on the stone steps aside. Xia Yuan took the initiative to vacate his seat and let Mei Fang sit in the middle. Then he took Mei Fang's arm and pointed to a small empty space in front of him and said, "You know this place.

What happened?"

"What could have happened in this place..."

"This is where Yuan Yuan and I quarreled." Lin Youxi answered, and Mei Fang suddenly realized, "Oh oh oh, what happened at that time?"

"We parked our bikes here that day, and then I asked Al Fangqian to leave first. I wanted to have a chat with Youxi, so we had a quarrel here."

Xia Yuan raised his head and looked at the blue sky, "That was the only time I quarreled with Youxi in my memory. I was so sad at the time. I felt that I would never be friends with Youxi in the future."

Lin Youxi nodded warmly from the side, "Me too."

"Speaking of which, what were you arguing about?" Mei Fang tilted her head and looked at Xia Yuan, then looked back at Lin Youxi, "I'm actually quite curious."

"Didn't you tell Al Fang that time?"

Xia Yuan frowned and thought for a while, "It's just... I didn't do well in the physics exam at that time. I didn't do all the answers on one side. When Youxi saw that I didn't do it, he deliberately crossed out all the answers on the last page.

Then he told me that the question was difficult..."

"I remember this, you absolutely don't like others to give in to you."

Mei Fang nodded, "But logically speaking, although you are unhappy about this matter, you won't be angry with Youxi. You are a reasonable girl and you do this because you know Youxi is taking care of you. There is no malicious intention.

"

"It, actually!"

Xia Yuan scratched his face and said, "At that time, the relationship between Youxi and I was already a bit delicate, because I tend to get jealous easily. I would get a little emotional when I see you and Youxi being so close to each other, so this matter

It’s just an introduction, and later on we were arguing and the topic fell on Al Fang.”

Lin Youxi stuck her head out and looked at Xia Yuan, "Do you want to tell A Fang about this past incident?"

"I want to hear it, just tell me!"

Xia Yuan pinched Mei Fang's cheek with disgust, "It's obviously the most painful memory between Youxi and I, but you're enjoying it like a melon, you heartless guy."

"No way! I was in a lot of pain at that time, okay! At that time Youxi had a cold war with me, and you were a bit... how to put it, I thought you were a bit sickly at that time, and you didn't say anything when you pulled me,

How long did it take me to get the words out of you?"

"Was I so terrible at that time?"

Xia Yuan angrily pinched Mei Fang's thigh, "I'm so sorry for forcing you to coax me!"

"I didn't have a good temper at that time. When I felt uncomfortable and sulky, I didn't want to talk to anyone." Lin Youxi smiled and said, "When you think about it, I feel that I have changed a lot from before."

"Youxi has changed a lot. In the past, she was always as boring as a gourd. Even in front of Ah Fang and I, she didn't like to talk, let alone when she was in mood."

"No, that's just in front of you and Ah Fang."

Lin Youxi smiled: "Afang and I still talk a lot when we are alone."

Xia Yuan looked like he was crying, "Youxi, you and A Fang went behind my back for so long, and I only found out about these things later..."

"Okay, okay! Don't change the subject." Mei Fang was impatient, "Tell me about the content of the quarrel between you two. I like to hear this kind of topic the most."

"Afang, go to hell!"

Under the joyful banter of several people, Xia Yuan and Lin Youxi silently told Mei Fang what they had concealed three years ago——

【three years ago】

During that time, Xia Yuan experienced a very bad physics exam, and Lin Youxi sat in front of her during that exam.

When handing in the paper, Lin Youxi discovered that Xia Yuan had not noticed that there were two physics questions on the back. In order to make her less embarrassed, Lin Youxi crossed out the answers to the last two questions and told the two

It is difficult to comfort Xia Yuan.

Xia Yuan originally relaxed a little under Lin Youxi's comfort, but when he and Mei Fang asked for Super Alfang energy in the evening to seek comfort, he unexpectedly learned from Mei Fang the last two questions of the physics question that he and Lin Youxi had previously asked.

After reading the exact same original question one day, I immediately understood that Lin Youxi must have deliberately failed to write the correct answer.

So when the three of them rode bicycles to school together the next day, they parked their cars and Xia Yuan stopped Mei Fang and signaled for him to go first.

"Afang, can you go to the classroom first? Youxi and I have something to say."

"Well, it's okay...you can't say anything in front of me?"

"Of course it's a girl's secret, please leave quickly."

Xia Yuan pushed Mei Fang forward, and Mei Fang looked at Lin Youxi, then shook his head to remind her not to mention persuading Xia Yuan to leave the science experimental class——

Previously, Mei Fang and Lin Youxi had a small quarrel over whether Xia Yuan should continue to attend the science experimental class, but they soon reconciled. This was a small episode.

The two of them looked at each other in a tacit understanding, and Lin Youxi nodded in agreement.

Waiting for Mei Fang to go away, Xia Yuan took the initiative to ask Lin Youxi:

"Youxi... let me ask you, what score do you think you can get in the physics test yesterday?"

Lin Youxi looked a little confused, "The monthly exam has passed, why do you still mention this?"

"No...I can't get through it, Youxi, really."

Xia Yuan responded to Lin Youxi's words with a smile, "I know that I am bad at physics, so I work hard, I have to work very hard, I can allow you to dislike me, but -"

The look she looked at Lin Youxi gradually changed from a smile to a serious look.

"I really don't need...I don't need you to pity me like this."

"I don't--"

Lin Youxi shook her head. At this time, she was not as mature and stable as she would be three years later. Her voice was so small that it was directly covered by Xia Yuan's voice.

"Is it so interesting to play with my mood in a condescending manner?"

"Thankfully I still believed in you so much... I actually foolishly thought that you also made mistakes sometimes."

As Xia Yuan spoke, his eyes turned red first:

"But now I finally understand that you and I are really completely different... There is no way a girl like me can stand with you and Al Fang."

Although Lin Youxi still listened to Xia Yuan on almost everything at this time, she could not calm down and ignore Xiao Qingmei's words.

She pursed her lips and then spoke:

"Yuanyuan, you just failed in your studies temporarily... Ever since you were a child, you have always been better than me. Why do you say such self-destructive words?"

"This is not a temporary defeat. After entering junior high school, the three of us knew it in our hearts. It's just that you and A Fang were considerate of me and refused to say it out."

Xia Yuan muttered and said word by word with trembling:

"I also know what you wanted to say to me before the exam yesterday. You wanted me to give up studying physics and give up taking the science experimental class, right?"

"I……"

This was indeed what she planned to tell Xia Yuan at the time, but she endured it in the end.

After the exam, she saw Yuan Yuan undergoing such torture, and talked about it with Mei Fang, hoping that Mei Fang would go with her to persuade Xia Yuan not to study science.

But the mature Mei Fang is more understanding of Xia Yuan's mood than Lin Youxi. He knows that Xia Yuan doesn't want to be left behind, and he also knows that Xia Yuan has feelings for him.

However, at that time, except for Mei Fang, Xia Yuan and Lin Youxi had only vague feelings of love. Neither of the two girls would reveal their feelings for each other. They were not as shameless as Mei Fang, and they directly confirmed

I like each other, so there will be some misunderstanding between each other.

Seeing Lin Youxi's thoughts being revealed by Xia Yuan, Xia Yuan continued to express his emotions.

"But, I can tell you very clearly - I don't want to give up physics, not because of how much I like it or how much I love to learn, but because I don't want to lose to you."

Lin Youxi raised his head and looked at Xia Yuan with some surprise, and continued to listen to Xia Yuan express his feelings:

"I especially don't want to... lose to you in front of A Fang."

"Because I like Al Fang, and I want to be with him forever."

Xia Yuan looked at Lin Youxi quietly, "And... I know you like him too, right?"

"I……"

Lin Youxi is not good at expressing his true thoughts in front of others, even in front of his former best friend Xia Yuan - especially on the topic of Mei Fang.

Xia Yuan saw Lin Youxi hesitant and unable to express his feelings, and instantly had the idea of ​​taking advantage of this momentum to continue to pressure Lin Youxi.

"Then let me ask you another way, between Al Fang and me, which one do you value more?"

"You are my best friends, why do you have to prioritize them——"

"Are you asking knowingly? Because you can only have one girlfriend!"

Xia Yuan rarely got angry at Lin Youxi, "If you insist on me leaving the science experimental class, then tell me personally that you don't like Al Fang! Can you do it?"
