My childhood sweetheart, who was reborn with me, ended up as a loser.

Chapter 16 Birthday Order

The five of them trained at the martial arts gym for almost another hour.

At four o'clock in the afternoon, the sun outside was finally not so strong.

Xu Qingfan took a cold shower at Ruan Wen's house, feeling refreshed and cool all over.

When he came out of the bathroom, Lin Wanning had already finished showering and was talking to the fan: "Wow~ Brother Qingfan, what are you doing?"

Xu Qingfan burst out laughing, and when Lin Wanning saw him, his previously droopy little ahoge (cowlick) stood up abruptly.

"Brother Qingfan!"

"Why is Wan Ning all alone?"

Xu Qingfan squatted down beside her and sat down with Lin Wanning to enjoy the fan.

"Ruan Wen, Xiao Xiao, and Yi Yi are still taking a bath, but Ning Ning finished her bath in a flash!" Lin Wan Ning said with a look that seemed to be asking for praise.

"Wan Ning is so amazing! Here's a kiss as a reward."

"Okay, okay!"

When Xia Xiaoxiao came out, she caught Lin Wanning leaning in to let Xu Qingfan kiss him.

Xia Xiaoxiao: Chang Wei, you still say you're not a pervert!

Xu Qingfan: First of all, I am not; secondly, I am not; and finally, Wan Ning is really cute!

Xia Xiaoxiao felt she should put on a serious expression. "I've caught you two red-handed!"

Unfortunately, Lin Wanning showed no sign of shyness upon seeing her, and once again demonstrated her voice-changing skills: "Xiaoxiao~ Xiaoxiao~"

Xia Xiaoxiao felt like she had punched cotton. What was she even doing competing with Wan Ning?

Zhang Chunxue led Xiao Ruanwen and Zhang Yiyi out last, and said, "Does everyone want to eat something? Auntie will take you to KFC."

Zhang Yiyi had not prepared any change of clothes in advance, and was currently wearing Ruan Wen's clothes.

She wore a pink striped short-sleeved shirt with the sheep motif on top and purple shorts on the bottom. For some reason, it gave off a particularly funny vibe.

"Pfft... Now that Yi Yi is wearing Ruan Wen's clothes, she finally feels like she's on the same level as us," Xu Qingfan couldn't help but say.

Zhang Chunxue smiled. She had just noticed that her daughter looked different after changing her clothes, and only realized it after Xiao Fan pointed it out.

After changing their clothes, they definitely had a more "human" aura about them.

"What do you mean, a layer? Xiao Fan, what are you talking about?" Xiao Ruanwen slapped his face with her wet hands as usual.

"Just now, Yi Yi looked like a character from a movie. After changing into Ruan Wen's clothes, it was as if she stepped out from behind a curtain."

"Xiao Fan, are you trying to say my clothes are ugly?" Xiao Ruanwen's gaze was unfriendly.

"How could this be? This is Pleasant Goat! I've always dreamed of having a Pleasant Goat outfit—oh wait, I mean, Happy Goat outfit!"

"Hahaha!"

Xu Qingfan's exaggerated tone made everyone burst into laughter, and even Zhang Yiyi, whose face had remained expressionless, had a slight upturn at the corners of her mouth.

She looked down at the cartoon pattern on her clothes, reached out and touched it; it was embroidered.

When Zhang Chunxue noticed the smile on her daughter's face, she became so nervous that she forgot to breathe.

[Perhaps this time there really is a chance to cure Yi Yi's illness...]

"Is everyone hungry? Do you want to go to KFC?" Zhang Chunxue asked with a smile, hiding her excitement.

"think!"

No child can resist the temptation of KFC; even Xia Xiaoxiao started talking.

The voices of Xu Qingfan, Xiao Ruanwen, and Lin Wanning are comparable to those of a symphony orchestra.

...

After Xiao Ruanwen called to get approval, the five of them quickly got into Aunt Zhang's Bentley and headed to KFC.

"It's been a long time since I've had KFC. The last time I ate KFC was on my birthday," Xiao Ruanwen said.

"When is Ruan Wen's birthday?" Xu Qingfan asked.

"I don't know either. I celebrate my birthday according to the lunar calendar. This year it's May 20th, and I don't know when it will be next year."

My mom always tells me my birthday a week in advance, and that's how I find out.

Xiao Ruanwen pouted cutely and asked, "When is everyone's birthday?"

"I am the end of July, July 31st, and Xiaoxiao is February 12th."

"Ningning, it's May 1st, Labor Day!"

"Wait a minute, isn't Ningning older than Brother Qingfan?"

Lin Wanning suddenly widened her eyes. Could she still call Qingfan "brother Qingfan"?

"So Xiao Fan is actually the youngest among us!"

"No, I was born in 1999. You were all born in the millennium, so I'm the oldest," Xu Qingfan explained with a smile.

"Phew~ That was close!" Lin Wanning patted his chest to calm himself down, not knowing what he had gotten away with.

"Ah! Brother Qingfan's birthday is in just over ten days!!" Lin Wanning quickly discovered another interesting point.

"Oh right, Xiao Fan, it's almost your birthday, why didn't you tell everyone!"

"It's not too late to know now. Besides, my birthday is very simple. My parents both have to work, but my godmother buys me a four-inch cake every year, and then we all go to our family's shop for a late-night snack and then have cake."

Xu Qingfan recalled the happy times of his childhood, a look of longing appearing on his face.

"I invited everyone to celebrate my birthday this year."

"Okay!"

"Mmm-hmm!"

Lin Wanning and Xiao Ruanwen nodded like chicks pecking at rice.

"What do Xiaofan's parents do for a living?" Zhang Chunxue asked curiously.

She was genuinely interested in what kind of family could raise such an outstanding child.

"My parents run a food stall, selling late-night snacks. My dad is a very good cook. Yi-yi and Aunt Zhang, can you come along?"

Zhang Chunxue nodded: "Of course, it would be an honor for Yiyi and Auntie!"

She wanted to see it with her own eyes even more.

"Aunt Zhang, please don't say that. It's my honor that you could come. By the way, when is Yi Yi's birthday?"

Xu Qingfan had long noticed that something was wrong with Zhang Yiyi. He wasn't sure if it was autism or aphasia, but it couldn't be what Lin Wanning said, "Yiyi doesn't like to talk."

He had already asked Wan Ning; the two weren't relatives, they just lived in the same neighborhood and could be considered neighbors.

Because both of them lived in detached villas.

However, Xu Qingfan was very curious about how Wan Ning became friends with Yi Yi, who couldn't speak.

"Yiyi was born on June 20th, the year of the millennium," Zhang Chunxue said, glancing at her daughter with mixed emotions.

"Xiao Fan is the oldest, then Xiao Xiao, then Wan Ning and me, and Yi Yi is the youngest, she's my little sister!"

"Hehe~ Yes, Yi Yi is the younger sister, please take good care of her."

"Brother Qingfan is the best at taking care of people!"

"Alright, Wanning, it's fine as long as we know. What if other people know how great I am and try to take me away from Ningning?"

"Ah! Ningning will never say it again!" Lin Wanning covered her mouth with both hands in fear.

"Hahaha!"
