Chapter 248: So Im the Only One Who Hasnt Received a Love Letter?!
“It was me, and I did it on purpose, not by accident.” Faced with Mei Fang’s questioning, Xiang Bingbing showed no fear; in fact, she seemed a little proud.
As Mei Fang prepared to swear, Xiang Bingbing continued to explain, “Youxi asked me to do it. She said I could take away any snacks or milk tea other girls sent to you, and she’d take responsibility for it.”
Mei Fang suddenly realized, “So that’s why, last time when Zhu Nainai wanted to buy me a milk tea, your eyes were practically shining——”
“Just accept the gift when someone gives it to you! They came all the way here, you know?!” Xiang Bingbing said angrily at Mei Fang. “Nainai just wants you to accept the gift. She might not even care who actually drinks it!”
“Ahaha, Senior Xiang Bingbing is so cute! That’s right, that’s right!”
Zhu Nainai wasn’t angry that her snacks were eaten by Xiang Bingbing. After all, she didn’t expect Mei Fang to actually keep them properly. Now, this situation could even help her get closer to Mei Fang:
“Senior! So now that everything’s clear, you see… I was wrongly accused after all, wasn’t I?”
Zhu Nainai leaned on the window, rubbing her head and pouting, “You hit my head so hard, it really hurts. Senior, you were too harsh.”
“Sigh… It was my mistake. I’ll buy you a milk tea another day, but please don’t send me snacks anymore in the future.”
“I don’t want milk tea from you, Senior. I’m afraid the other seniors might misunderstand.”Zhu Nainai giggled, “Senior Xia Yuan is fine, but Senior Xia Youxi seems really scary. I wouldn’t dare upset her.”
She leaned on Mei Fang’s windowsill, staring at the letter in his hand. “But… I’m very, very curious about the love letter Senior received. Is there anything I can help with?”
“No, no, just go back to your classroom. Evening self-study is about to start.”
“Then… does that mean I can go around telling everyone that Senior Mei Fang mistakenly thought his junior sent him a love letter? Including Senior Xia Yuan and Senior Lin Youxi——”
Before she could finish, Mei Fang raised his hand to stop her.
“As an apology for misunderstanding you earlier, you can look at the letter, but you can’t spread it around.”
“Yay!”
Zhu Nainai carefully took the love letter from Mei Fang with both hands and, being very interested, she began to read it aloud in a low voice.
“Don’t read it out loud!”
“Ahh, sorry.”
While Mei Fang and Zhu Nainai were talking, Xiang Bingbing had been trembling at her desk.
Noticing her strange behavior, Mei Fang poked her. “What are you doing?”
“I…” Xiang Bingbing covered her mouth, still trembling. “I just thought of something funny, haha, hahahaha——”
“You’re acting really suspicious… You heard everything just now. Do you know something about the love letter?”
Xiang Bingbing continued to shake her head wildly, which only made Mei Fang more suspicious of her. At this moment, Zhu Nainai suddenly exclaimed, “Senior, Senior, you’re trying to find the person who wrote this love letter, right?”
“Yeah… do you have any clues?”
“The theme of this love letter’s stationery and envelope is from the popular Sanrio family, with My Melody[1] being especially popular!”
“By the way, the stationery store next to the school playground just got a new shipment today. When I went there to buy some, they sold out immediately. There shouldn’t be many people with this kind of envelope. If the person who wrote the love letter is around us, it should be easy to find them!”
Xiang Bingbing chimed in, “Speaking of which, are you sure this love letter wasn’t written by Youxi or Yuan Yuan?”
“Hmm… I’m not sure.”
“This kind of overly sweet words doesn’t seem like something a stranger would write. You should suspect those close to you more.”
Zhu Nainai thought for a moment and continued, “If Senior really wants to figure out who the culprit is, wouldn’t it be easiest to go to that usual spot and meet her tomorrow?”
“The usual spot, huh…”
The first place Mei Fang thought of was the pavilion, but that would mean assuming Lin Youxi or Xia Yuan was the culprit.
When they were walking earlier, Youxi did mention the “usual spot,” but imagining Lin Youxi writing such cheesy words——
Mei Fang couldn’t help but picture Lin Youxi clinging to him like a koala.
Given that Lin Youxi isn’t short, if she wanted to hang onto Mei Fang, then it would be——
Not just a little bit embarrassing… but extremely so!
As mentioned before, Mei Fang was a petty person, and there were some things he simply couldn’t forget.
Before the second evening self-study class started, he insisted on checking Xiang Bingbing’s desk to see if it contained any My Melody envelopes. This move was met with fierce resistance from Xiang Bingbing——
She guarded her desk like an immovable mountain, refusing to budge no matter how much Mei Fang pushed.
Although her behavior was clearly suspicious, Mei Fang needed solid evidence to truly put his mind at ease.
So he resorted to extreme measures. Being a gentleman, he used a ruler to tickle Xiang Bingbing until she surrendered.
At first, Xiang Bingbing tried hard to endure it, but eventually, she couldn’t hold back and gave in:
“Ah Fang… hahaha, that tickles so much… stop it—you’re so annoying!”
Xiang Bingbing’s strange noises quickly attracted the attention of many of his classmates.
Mei Fang’s reputation took another hit.
He had a bit of a headache. Not only did he fail to identify the true sender of the love letter, but he also hadn’t written a single word of the love letters he promised to write for Lin Youxi and Xia Yuan.
On their way home together, the three of them suddenly fell into a comfortable silence. It wasn’t until they were almost home that Xia Yuan suddenly brought up Liu Xiaoyu receiving a love letter. Lin Youxi seemed quite interested in the topic and said, “By the way, I also received a love letter once.”
“W-what? When?”
Xia Yuan and Mei Fang almost shouted in unison, which amused Lin Youxi:
“Just a little while ago… why are you two so excited?”
“Of course, I’m jealous of you! Neither Ah Fang nor I have received a love letter, boo-hoo——”
Mei Fang’s reaction was more straightforward, “Which guy? Is he from your class? Or is he a freshman?”
“That’s not important. I already turned him down, and it’s nothing worth bragging about.”
“Isn’t that great? It means you’re popular.”
“If we’re talking about popularity, Yuan Yuan is definitely more popular. The fact that she’s more popular but hasn’t received any love letters—well, the reason for that is pretty obvious, isn’t it?” Lin Youxi said.
“Uh…” Xia Yuan seemed a bit guilty after hearing this.
Since elementary school, Xia Yuan had always clung to Mei Fang whenever she had free time. Mei Fang, in turn, protected her very well, leaving little opportunity for other boys to get closer to her.
Lin Youxi lifted her head and stretched her neck, “I’m not saying this out of jealousy. After all, I know I don’t have the easiest personality to get along with. At school, I probably seem hard to approach, and now that Yuan Yuan isn’t around, it’s easier to be mistaken for someone who’s alone.”
“Don’t say that! Your personality isn’t difficult at all. Ah Fang and I both love you very much!”
As she spoke, Xia Yuan hugged Lin Youxi tightly, rubbing against her affectionately, then motioned for Mei Fang to join in.
Is this an invitation for a group hug?
Mei Fang hesitated for a moment before moving closer.
The three of them used to hug like this often—for celebrations when they were happy, or for encouragement when they were sad…
Back then, Xia Yuan was much more lively and outgoing. At that time, both Lin Youxi and Mei Fang were like little followers to her.
But now, with Xia Yuan no longer in the lead, Mei Fang felt he needed to be more proactive to give them a stronger sense of security.
He let go of his concern about what others might think, and wrapped his arms around both Xia Yuan and Lin Youxi’s waists, gently pressing his forehead against Lin Youxi’s. At this moment, Xia Yuan also leaned in, and the three of them harmoniously touched foreheads, closing their eyes to feel the warmth of the others.
At this moment, Mei Fang said softly: “Even though we’re not in the same class, and even though we can still see each other in the evening, the daytime is very long. No matter how busy we are, we should make time to see each other more often. We should share both happy and unhappy things together. Only then can we truly fulfill our promise of not changing for a hundred years… Don’t you agree?”
“Mm-hmm, that’s right…”
Xia Yuan gently rubbed Lin Yousi’s forehead, and as Lin Youxi felt her warmth, she softly said, “Ah Fang, you’re so sweet with your words. But if we’re sharing both happy and unhappy things, shouldn’t you be telling us about the love letter you received today? Or are you planning to keep it a secret from us?”
“Love… love letter?” Xia Yuan was instantly shocked upon hearing this. “Ah Fang got a love letter today too? What’s going on?! So I’m the only one who hasn’t received a love letter?!”
