Only After I Was Reborn Did I Realize That I Had Childhood Sweethearts

Chapter 13: Little Frog

Mei Fangs summer vacation became fulfilling and busy with Lin Youxis frequent visits. They played many computer games together, and Mei Fang could feel the boundless potential bursting from Lin Youxis small body. She had a high adaptability to games and could quickly pick them up.

Without Mei Fangs guidance, she would never have had the chance to come into contact with these games in her previous life.

As they continued to cultivate their friendship, Mei Fang had the idea of turning Lin Youxi into his own game development tool.

In his previous life, he had some understanding of coding. After all, he didnt want to be a tool for others forever. However, his talent was limited, and he gave up after learning for a while.

Perhaps after Lin Youxi fell in love with games, she would develop an interest in programming. She had a strong learning ability, and with their deep understanding of each other, conflicts in development would be reduced.

Of course, this idea was still far from being put into practice. It could be considered a long-term plan of twenty years.

For now, all he could do was guide and cultivate Lin Youxi. Whether she would succeed or not depended on whether fate favored her.

In mid-August, Xia Yuan returned from her grandmothers house after finishing her summer vacation. On the first day back, she couldnt wait to call Mei Fang and Lin Youxi to meet at the park in their neighborhood.

Xia Yuan, youve gotten tanned.

Lin Youxi spoke bluntly as she touched Xia Yuans slightly darkened shoulder. Curiously, she said, You look like those wild people from the animal world.

Xia Yuan didnt get angry after being teased like that. Instead, she rubbed her nose and smiled, Yeah, it does look like it! I was upset at first for a long time. But my mom said it would naturally recover after a while, as long as I eat more fruits and get enough vitamin C.

Xia Yuan, who originally had fair skin, had become a bit wheat-colored from the sun. She liked to wear off-shoulder dresses in the summer, so there were obvious tan lines, giving her a unique charm.

Stay calm, Mei Fang! You can do it!

Lin Youxi and Xia Yuan didnt notice Mei Fang slapping himself on the face beside them. After chatting for a while, Xia Yuan took out a special item she brought from her grandmothers house.

Oh, this is a frog!

In Xia Yuans glass jar was a small green frog. The two girls showed a different interest from other girls their age. They both seemed to like this kind of small animal. On the other hand, Mei Fang was startled, Arent you afraid of these things?

Xia Yuan looked disgusted, Mei Fang is so timid.

No wonder you wet the bed, Lin Youxi added fuel to the fire.

You two

Mei Fang really wanted to go home and play games, but today he was kicked out by his father.

Because Mei Lijun accused Mei Fang of staying at home and not going out to play since he bought a computer, and also because playing on the computer can easily lead to nearsightedness, etc., he said that he is not allowed to come home before five oclock.

Mei Fang certainly knows that his father is just finding excuses to monopolize the computer for himself.

Xia Yuan placed the frog in a jar on the table in the park pavilion and observed it.

If we seal it with the lid, wont the little frog suffocate?

No, look here on the lid, my grandma helped me make holes.

I see frogs are so interesting and fun. Look at its cheeks, theyre so puffed up! What does it eat? I remember it eats insects.

Yes, it eats mosquitoes and flies. If you keep a frog with you, you wont be afraid of getting itchy from bug bites. Xia Yuan suddenly sighed, But my mom told me that frogs are protected animals, so we have to release it tomorrow.

Actually, Xia Yuans mother doesnt have such noble intentions. Xia Yuans mom, like Mei Fang, just dislikes frogs.

Cant we play with the little frog for a few more days? Its so interesting

Lin Youxi thought for a moment, If you cant keep it at home, you can keep it at Mei Fangs house.

Why do you think my house can keep it Mei Fang knocked on Lin Youxis head, Besides, if you like frogs, why dont you keep it yourself?

My dad said he used to eat frog meat, and he told me that frogs are delicious. Im afraid he will stew and eat the little frog if he sees it.

Then your dad is in danger! Xia Yuan showed an incredulous expression, My mom said that frogs are second-level protected animals. If someone is found eating frogs, they will be put in jail.

After hearing this, Lin Youxi suddenly panicked and grabbed Xia Yuans hand pitifully, Please dont tell the police about this My dad doesnt eat them anymore, and I dont have a mom anymore. I dont want to be an orphan.

True to being a child She talks about her misfortunes so casually like this?

Speaking of this, Xia Yuan seemed to have known from the beginning that Lin Youxis mom was no longer around, perhaps thats why she was so enthusiastic about playing the role of Lin Youxis mom whenever they play house.

Since since he doesnt eat frogs anymore, I think the police officers wont be that strict Xia Yuan touched her own ear and looked away, with a very guilty expression.

Mei Fang calmly watched these two little drama queens defining their own moral standards, and then the girls gaze shifted towards him.

So, Mei Fang, you can keep it, right? Were such good friends Xia Yuan started morally blackmailing Mei Fang with a hint of playfulness.

Why would I bother keeping a frog? Its so boring.

Youll get to play with the frog all by yourself at home, you can do whatever you want with it. Im so envious! Lin Youxi whispered into Mei Fangs ear.

Give up, whether its being cute or provoking, it wont work. Im not someone who likes frogs.

Lin Youxi and Xia Yuan looked at each other and came to a unanimous conclusion after discussing:

We must make Mei Fang understand the joy of frogs!

Can we take out the frog? Let Mei Fang touch it personally, and he will like frogs.

Yes, I have taken it out to play before! But frogs are very shy and slippery, so be careful when holding them.

Hey

Watching the girls carefully unscrew the jar lid, Mei Fang suddenly had a bad feeling.

Oh!

Just as Xia Yuan grabbed the frog and placed it in Lin Youxis palm, the frog suddenly jumped up.

Could it be

Accompanied by Xia Yuan and Lin Youxis exclamation, the frog made a croaking sound and jumped three feet high, landing on Mei Fangs face!

Ah ah ah ah ah!

Mei Fang, a city dweller who had rarely touched frogs since childhood, screamed hysterically. The frog stayed on Mei Fangs face for a while, then jumped down to Mei Fangs shoulder. Mei Fang desperately tried to catch the frog, but it crawled into Mei Fangs clothes through the collar.

At this moment, Mei Fang was like a dog chasing its own tail, spinning around, waving his hands and feet, and even took off his T-shirt to find the frog.

Mei Fang, calm down! Dont panic Dont move, let me help you

Pu haha haha haha haha!

Lin Youxi laughed uncontrollably on the side, believing that Mei Fangs embarrassing state was deeply imprinted in her mind and would become a memory she would occasionally bring up to tease Mei Fang in the future.

After a series of struggles, Mei Fang, exhausted and shirtless, collapsed on the table.

After searching around the bushes of the park for a while, Xia Yuan and Lin Youxi returned to the pavilion disappointedly.

It seems like the frog jumped into the pond

Wu wu little frog. Lin Youxi cried.

Dont you care about me at all?

Who cares about you, you stupid pig!

Lin Youxi kept tapping Mei Fangs head, You lost the frog that Xia Yuans grandma worked so hard to catch.

Its okay, we were going to release it anyway. Xia Yuan waved her hand, indicating that she didnt mind. This way, the little frog can return to nature sooner.

You cant always spoil Mei Fang, Lin Youxi expressed dissatisfaction with her hands on her hips. You always let him have his way, look how arrogant he is now.

But he had a lot of fun!

Well thats true.

Xia Yuan and Lin Youxi both laughed happily.
