Chapter 210: If You Want to Call Him Ah Fang, Go Ahead

I was supposed to post this chapter yesterday but I was a little busy, so there are 2 chapters today.

***

Since Mei Fang shared the Ximilu Studio’s monthly financial report, Xia Yuan and Lin Youxi could now view and access Mei Fang’s financial status at any time.

Currently, the income from various games was just barely profitable, with a monthly surplus of only a few thousand yuan. The account that Mei Fang showed to Xia Yuan and Lin Youxi had a balance of over 500,000 yuan (around $68k). However, both of them were aware that Mei Fang likely had a private account. They didn’t ask much about it, and Mei Fang also preferred they not know that their beloved was already a millionaire, as it might hinder enjoying their high school life.

From Xia Yuan’s perspective, her concern about Mei Fang’s spending wasn’t unfounded. “With no new games developed, C Site still has significant monthly expenses, and other game revenues are mediocre. I’m not saying you can’t spend money, but at least wait until my new album is released.”

“When your new album is released, will you support me?”

“Of course, I will support you.”

Xia Yuan pinched Mei Fang’s cheeks, looking a bit unhappy. “Why are you being so polite? It’s clear that most of the credit for the album goes to you.”

“I’m not being polite.” Mei Fang, pinching Xia Yuan’s nose, smiled cheekily. “Who wouldn’t want to be supported by a cute little rich lady?”

In fact, Mei Fang’s journey to wealth started with Xia Yuan’s ten yuan.

Without that ten yuan, there would be no football betting, no birth of Mei Ya, no rise of Mei Lijun, no home computer for Mei Fang, and no future story of him getting into coding and games with Lin Youxi.

Of course, saying this would reveal Mei Fang’s identity as a reborn person, but even without saying it, Xia Yuan would still get all flustered when Mei Fang teased her by calling her a “little rich lady.”

“What rich lady?! Compared to Boss Mei, I’m still poor.”

Lin Youxi had been quietly watching Mei Fang and Xia Yuan’s interaction, not feeling jealous but rather enjoying it. Once Xia Yuan and Mei Fang finished talking, she chimed in:

“Anyway, let’s first check with a few tent suppliers at Mulan Heaven Lake. If both classes go together, we should be able to negotiate a good discount.”

“If Youxi organizes it, I think we can convince the class committee. In a collective vote, the only opposition might come from Shang Qin. She likes to go against Youxi.”

Shang Qin, the sports representative of Class 5 and a teammate of Xiang Bingbing on the basketball team. As mentioned before, due to the class monitor election, she had been at odds with Lin Youxi for a while now.

Xia Yuan tilted her head and asked Mei Fang, “You’re not a class monitor or a committee member. How do you plan to persuade your classmates to go to Mulan Heaven Lake?”

“Me? I may not be a committee member, but I’m a three-good student, and our class’ sports representative Xiang Bingbing is my good friend. We have a responsibility and obligation to lead our class to a meaningful and fun spring outing.”

Xia Yuan and Lin Youxi both gave Mei Fang a look of disdain.

“Are you referencing that broadcast script from when you were a flag-bearer in elementary school?”

“Isn’t it quite funny? Haha!”

“Ta-da!”

Xiang Bingbing grinned and pointed to herself. “I, Xiang Bingbing, am the girl Mei Fang is closest to in the class!”

“Stop joking around, I’m serious,” Xia Yuan said grumpily. “I’m asking about someone other than you.”

Xiang Bingbing looked a bit unhappy after hearing that. “Why exclude me? Mei Fang and I are super close.”

“?”

Xia Yuan didn’t want to deal with Xiang Bingbing initially, but hearing this, she frowned slightly. “What do you mean by ‘super close’?”

Sensing danger, Mei Fang quickly interjected, “She helps me get breakfast and saves a spot for me in the cafeteria. The fried noodles in the morning are hard to get, but Bingbing gets them easily. In return, I lend her my homework and notes.”

“If it’s just that, then I guess it’s fine...” Xia Yuan muttered.

Xiang Bingbing, knowing that Xia Yuan and Lin Youxi liked Mei Fang, felt a bit left out and grumbled further. “What’s ‘just that’? Other people want to get breakfast for Mei Fang but can’t, okay? I always share the best Shennongjia chestnuts with him first. And——”

“Okay, okay, I get it. Bingbing is already doing a great job,” Xia Yuan said, patting Xiang Bingbing’s head gently. “Just keep being the girl Ah Fang is closest to in Class 3. If anyone gets closer to him than you, let me know.”

“Don’t worry, no one will get closer to him than me. They can’t compete with my relationship with Ah Fang.”

“It’s Mei Fang, not Ah Fang,” Mei Fang reminded from the side.

“Aiya, it’s really easy to say the wrong thing when they always call you Ah Fang.”

“Let Bingbing call you what she wants,” Xia Yuan smiled. “If you want to call him Ah Fang, go ahead.”

“So you really don’t mind?”

“Because Bingbing is cute and also our good friend,” Xia Yuan said, putting her arm around Xiang Bingbing’s shoulder and leaning in close to her affectionately. Xiang Bingbing was also very happy. “Then I’ll call him Ah Fang like you guys. Calling him Mei Fang is a bit awkward, hahaha.”

Lin Youxi, having finished discussing the details with He Luoyun, watched Xia Yuan chat happily with Mei Fang.

After the class committee finalized the plans, Lin Youxi called Xia Yuan to go back to their classroom together. On the way up, she suddenly stared at Xia Yuan and said, “We were supposed to discuss the spring outing, but you were just chatting with Ah Fang.”

Xia Yuan sheepishly stuck out her tongue, “I just wanted to say hi... and then got carried away.”

“Tonight during the evening self-study break, Ah Fang is all mine, okay?”

“N-No problem... sorry,” Xia Yuan said, lowering her head in contrition at Lin Youxi’s stern demeanor, which shocked Liu Xiaoyu so much she didn’t dare say a word.
