Chapter 100 : Of Course, I Will Remember It Forever

Mei Fang was currently experiencing an awkward situation.

It all started with his casual remark, but now Xia Yuan has dragged Mei Fang downstairs, holding onto his arm, insisting on taking Mei Fang to the music store to buy a guitar.

“I was just kidding, I didn’t mean it seriously... I need to focus on my studies now, I don’t have time to learn guitar!”Read latest chapters at novelhall.com Only

“Ah Fang, don’t act like a child! There’s always time if you make an effort. If you don’t learn now, you’ll have even less time in high school...”

Xia Yuan and Mei Fang were bickering on the road in the neighborhood when they coincidentally ran into a few familiar neighbor aunties, who were gossiping and smiling at them. Both of them instinctively let go of each other’s hands.

“Um, when you were talking about this earlier, I really felt a sparkle in your eyes, Ah Fang.”

Xia Yuan adjusted her hair and sincerely said, “I’ve always thought you have a talent for writing lyrics, and you also learn music theory so quickly... If you put effort into this path, you might really achieve something, Ah Fang.”

“I mean... Yuan Yuan, tell me the truth,” Mei Fang furrowed his brows, “Are you dragging me along because you feel guilty for making fun of my singing during elementary, and now you’re trying to make up for it?”

When they were kids, Mei Fang sang for Xia Yuan, but he sang poorly and was laughed at by Xia Yuan. After that, Mei Fang never sang in front of Xia Yuan again and only sang for himself.

“N-no way! When did I ever make fun of your singing!?”

“Then look at me properly. Why don’t you look at me properly...”

After struggling for a while, Xia Yuan finally forced herself to look at Mei Fang. Mei Fang was about to say something to Xia Yuan, but then he noticed tears welling up in her eyes.

“I know I made fun of you, Ah Fang, and I really regret it now... I’ve been thinking, maybe it’s because of my teasing about your singing that you didn’t continue to pursue this path. It’s all my fault.”

“It’s not because of that! Alright, alright... Stop crying over this, you crybaby.”

Mei Fang took out a tissue to wipe Xia Yuan’s tears.

I’m really weak against this...

Seeing Xia Yuan still sobbing, Mei Fang scratched his head, “I did want to give it a try, but I think I want to learn and practice on my own.”

Xia Yuan rubbed her eyes and said, “Why don’t you let me accompany you? Are you afraid that I will make fun of you?”

After their playful banter, Mei Fang and Xia Yuan resumed their conversation about buying a guitar. Mei Fang’s initial hesitation was already dispelled by Xia Yuan’s words, and now he was determined to go through with it.

“Since it’s decided, I should prepare seriously. By the way, do you know anyone around you who knows how to play guitar?”

Xia Yuan nodded, “I remember Xiaoxue said her cousin plays guitar very well. We can ask her for some beginner’s tips. And for this kind of instrument, it’s best to take lessons rather than self-study, as self-study takes more time and is prone to mistakes. My previous piano teacher, Teacher Liu, also teaches fingerstyle guitar at her music school. I can help contact her and inquire.”

“Taking lessons?” Mei Fang hesitated, “I see that those people learning instruments are mostly children. Do I have to learn with children?”

“It should be possible to arrange individual lessons, which would also be more flexible. But I’m not sure if my allowance would be enough... But, since the two of us are taking the lessons together, and me being an old acquaintance with Teacher Liu, we should be able to get a discount. And then, we can ask Youxi if she wants to learn together.”

“Huh? The two of us?”

Mei Fang was stunned, “Do you want to learn how to play guitar too? You don’t have to accompany me, you know?”

Upon hearing this, Xia Yuan puffed up her cheeks angrily, “You are willing to run away from home with me, so why can’t I accompany you to learn how to play guitar? Besides, I’m also very interested in playing guitar. We can motivate each other and make progress together!”

“If you put it that way... I guess I have to give in to you.”

Mei Fang reluctantly said, but he actually felt a warm feeling in his heart.

What sin did I commit in my previous life to not continue playing with such a good Yuan Yuan when we were in kindergarten...

I was really clueless when I was 5 years old!

“Let’s go find Youxi now and ask if she’s willing. Is she still at your house coding?”

“Yes... she is, but doing something else. I asked her to supervise Xiaoya’s homework for me, and in return, I’ll take her to the bookstore to buy programming books later.”

“Ah!” Xia Yuan was shocked, “You let Youxi suffer like this. Why didn’t you tell me earlier?”

“Why should I tell you earlier? And look at your gloating expression. Are you really sympathizing with Youxi, huh?”

“Okay, okay... I confess!”

Xia Yuan grabbed Mei Fang’s arm and headed towards his house, with a mischievous look on her face, “Let’s go see how Youxi is getting annoyed by Xiaoya. I can’t wait any longer!”
