Damn it, I'm surrounded by childhood sweethearts

Midday break.

After five girls helped each other put on their Hanfu, they all ran together to Xu Qingfan's room, waking him to help him into his Hanfu.

"Brother Fan, stop fidgeting!" Xiao Ruawen was squatting down to tie Xu Qingfan's sash. It was almost done, but with his flailing sleeve, the sash went askew again.

With the help of five girls, Xu Qingfan, who had just been in his red underpants, was quickly dressed.

He was slightly grumpy from being woken up, but seeing his handsome face in the full-length mirror lifted his spirits significantly.

His set of Hanfu was entirely green, made of high-quality real silk; it would billow as he walked even without wind. If he were to hold a three-foot green blade in his hand at that moment, he would be the spitting image of a senior brother from a Cultivation Sect.

"Brother Qing Fan looks so dashing!" Lin Wanning looped her arm in his, and in the clothes of the same color scheme, they looked like a couple in the mirror.

After changing into the clothes, the girls realized their oversight!

Among them, Xia Xiaoxiao's outfit was red, Zhang Yiyi's was white, Xiao Ruawen's was purple, and Wu Lingyu's was yellow; it had a vibe of the "Seven Fairies" celebration.

But it was only Lin Wanning and Xu Qingfan whose Hanfu were of the matching style and color, a perfect couple's outfit!

However, this couldn't really be blamed on Lin Wanning. When they had originally chosen the colors and styles of the outfits, they had all picked their own, and as for Xu Qingfan, he had said he didn't mind, so Wanning "casually" chose the same style as hers for him.

"Not bad, it brings out at least half of my charm," Xu Qingfan then turned his attention to the five girls.

He hadn't paid much attention when they first woke him, but now, appreciating them seriously, he realized the five standing together resembled the beauties of the ancient imperial palaces.

[If only I was wearing a Yellow Robe, what a missed opportunity.]

"Shameless Brother Fan," Xiao Ruawen punched his back and was the first to leave the room.

...

In the afternoon, when they arrived at the sports field in their Hanfu, the six of them instantly became the focus of attention, with crowds gathering around wherever they went.

After finally dealing with classmates who came asking for autographs, the afternoon almost came to an end.

Nevertheless, Xu Qingfan still made many wonderful memories with the five girls.

...

During evening self-study, each class turned off the lights, drew the curtains, and watched a movie with the classroom projector.

Including this time, Xu Qingfan couldn't remember how many times he had watched "Initial D," but he still found it thrilling every time "Yi Lu Xiang Bei" played.

"Takahashi Ryosuke, I'm Fujiwara Takumi, I want to join the photography club!"

Toward the end of the movie, Jay Chou, who played Fujiwara Takumi, laughed, Edison Chen, who played Takahashi Ryosuke, laughed, and a bunch of sleazy boys in the class laughed too.

...

On the second day of the sports meeting, there were not many events left.

The 400-meter and 800-meter races were completed in the morning, and with the 4×100-meter relay done in the afternoon, the sports meeting drew to a close.

Thanks to Xu Qingfan and Xiao Ruawen, two star athletes, Class 16 took a wide lead in the total score and ultimately won the first place in the freshman year group category, along with a 1000 yuan activity fee.

Of course, even the last place team received a 100 yuan reward; it's the participation that counted.

The final part of the closing ceremony was the entire school singing the new version of the school anthem together, with Xiao Ruawen, the original singer, being asked onto the stage to lead with a microphone.

"I look up at the starry sky you once gazed upon,"

"The earth beneath my feet has shifted in time,"

"The swath of red that you left swaying in the wind,"

Standing on the stage, witnessing thousands of people sing in unison, Xiao Ruawen was overwhelmed with emotion.

[Holding a concert must feel like this...]

"In my heart, my heart..."

...

At the now-familiar dessert shop in Gualv Square, after school, the six friends gathered.

"How was it? I didn't ask just now, you seemed flushed when you came down from the stage," Xu Qingfan said, scooping up a spoonful of double-layer milk pudding and, after finishing it, kept the spoon in his mouth.

"The feeling... it's different from when we sang in junior high. Standing on the stage and seeing people everywhere, it was really easy to get pumped up, like I had a lump in my chest," Xiao Ruawen paused from her chewing, tilted her head to recall, and then said.

"And to you guys I say, I was a bit reluctant when the principal told me to step down, haha, I wanted to sing 'Waiting for you to finish class' for Brother Fan," she added.

Wu Lingyu, with a spoon in her mouth as well, patiently listened to her.

"If Brother Qing Fan went up, he could have sung it!" Lin Wanning said with a squinted smile.

"As if I'm that undisciplined and unorganized," Xu Qingfan rebuked her, and Lin Wanning immediately stuck out her tongue like a child caught making a mistake.

"Who was it who got a disciplinary mark back in elementary school?" Xia Xiaoxiao retorted.

"You have the nerve to talk, when it comes to being undisciplined and unorganized, that would be no other than Xia Xiaoxiao," Xu Qingfan said.

Xia Xiaoxiao was full of question marks and the other four girls also didn't understand where Xu Qingfan was going with this.

Just as Xia Xiaoxiao was about to lose her temper, they heard Xu Qingfan continue: "See, we are all having double-layer milk pudding and you are the only one drinking milk tea pudding, aren't you undisciplined and unorganized?"

Everyone followed the direction of Xu Qingfan's pointing finger and saw the only cup of milk tea pudding on the table.

"And we all dip our chicken nuggets in sweet bean sauce, but you're the only one dipping in ketchup, what's that about?" Xu Qingfan went on, pointing at the ketchup on the table.

"Are you not really boring, Brother Fan?"

"So lame!"

Xia Xiaoxiao was torn between speaking up and keeping silent, ultimately unable to hold back, she clenched her fist and knocked it on his head.
