Chapter 22: I Am Truly a Deeply Sinful Boy
Mei Fang and Lin Youxi were stunned for a moment when they heard this, then immediately nodded frantically, Yes, yes, yes, we are playing hide and seek!
Mei Fang explained, We have to let your sister Youxi leave the house without being seen by anyone else for us to win.
But cant Mom and Dad see? Mei Ya turned back and looked at the door, Mom is still watching TV in the living room, so you wont win.
The living room in Mei Fangs house is connected to the entrance hall, so if they want to escape from the house, his mother Xiang Xiaoxia will definitely notice.
Although Mei Ya is young, she is very clever. When she heard that her older siblings were facing this problem, she immediately volunteered, Let me help, watch me!
Mei Ya hurriedly ran to the living room and grabbed Xiang Xiaoxia, who was watching TV.
Mom, I need to go poop!
You can do it yourself now, right? Youre going to kindergarten soon, you need to be able to take care of yourself.
But, but Im scared of mice Mom, can you come with me, please?
Mei Ya tugged at her moms arm and acted cute.
I really cant do anything with you Youre so big but still so timid
Helplessly, Xiang Xiaoxia followed her daughter into the bathroom. Meanwhile, Mei Fang and Lin Youxi took this opportunity to sneak out of the room and nervously arrived in the living room, where they could reach the victorious entrance hall.
Lin Youxi quickly put on the sandals that Mei Fang had hidden under the cabinet. At this moment, Mei Fang whispered, I dont think this can go on We should find an opportunity to confess to Xia Yuan.
Arent you afraid that she will be angry at us for this?
Lin Youxi whispered, I think Xia Yuan will definitely be angry.
Mei Fang nodded, She will be angry but its better to tell her early than later. Its better to confess on our own than to be discovered. Xia Yuan is easy to talk to, and you dont want to lose her as a good friend, right?
Um
After a moment of contemplation, Lin Youxi said, Then you dont have to say it, let me go After all, it was me who didnt let you tell Xia Yuan from the beginning. Its my responsibility.
Okay
Mei Fang, where are you? Lets look for the mouses traces together!
Xiao Yuans voice came from the study. Mei Fang and Lin Youxi hurriedly said goodbye and rushed to the study to pretend to investigate the situation together.
After half an hour of searching, they still couldnt find any trace of the mouse, so they finally gave up.
Mei Ya was proud of herself for completing the hide-and-seek challenge, and Mei Fang rewarded her with milk candy as a thank you, asking her to keep this secret deep in her three-year-old mind.
Xia Yuan nodded, not denying it.
Because you always accompany me to do things like roller skating, doing homework, going to the mall, buying things I thought I should also accompany you to play something, otherwise I wouldnt be a good friend.
Mei Fang was deeply moved after hearing these words.
I have never seen such a reasonable girl in my two lifetimes!
Why didnt you play with me when you first came to find me?
At first I was a bit conflicted, and your parents werent home. Playing computer games with you was like playing secretly. I had to make sure to get your mom and dads permission first before I could play.
This girl, why is she sometimes so slow-witted
But if Teacher Yu finds out about this, we might get scolded, right?
Lets just not tell my mom, anyway we have so many little secrets
Xia Yuan glared at Mei Fang angrily, Yes, its because of you that Ive become like this. I used to tell my mom everything Where did these secrets come from?
Haha thats true What type of game do you want to play?
I dont know what types are I dont know how to play, but I like cute things.
In that case, lets play this one!
Mei Fang decided to play the casual competitive game Bubble Gum[1] published by Shengda Games with Xia Yuan. This was also the first game Mei Fang played when he entered the online world in his previous life, and it was a childhood memory for many people born in the 80s and 90s.
In this game, the player controls a character to place bubble bombs and kill the enemy team. It can support up to eight players playing together, and its cute art style and simple gameplay attracted many people, especially children.
Of course, the most important thing is that because it only requires a few keys, it was one of the few online games that could be played by two people on one computer during that era of online gaming.
This means that you can even squeeze with a friend and play this game on one computer.
When most children had to go to internet cafes to play games, this great game saved a lot of money.
As soon as the game interface opened, Xia Yuan was immediately attracted by the lively and cute background music and cartoon art style of Bubble Gum. Mei Fang even felt that Xia Yuans eyes were sparkling.
A few years ago, I corrupted Lin Youxi, and now Xia Yuan couldnt escape my clutches either.
I am truly a deeply sinful boy.
Mei Fang couldnt help but sigh in his heart.
