Only After I Was Reborn Did I Realize That I Had Childhood Sweethearts Chapter 387: Summary of the Love Game Competition

After obtaining Xia Yuan’s consent, i Fang discussed the specific arrangents for her upcoming virtual idol debut with her.

According to the current promotional plan, Xia Yuan’s official debut as “Yuan-chan” is scheduled for Christmas Eve. As for the specific livestream content, Xia Yuan can decide for herself.

Initially, i Fang thought of having Xia Yuan livestream her songwriting process, which would both allow her to continue her creative work and attract fans of “Yuanyuan.”

However, Xia Yuan was quite open-minded about it. “Since we’re going to livestream anyway, we should do sothing more interactive.”

After so thought, Xia Yuan said, “For my first livestream, I could prepare an online concert. I already have plans for future concerts anyway, so this could be a good trial run.”

“Ah, so you really want to hold offline concerts in the future?”

i Fang squeezed Xia Yuan’s hand and murmured, “Livestreaming with an avatar is one thing, but having you perform and dance in front of a live audience feels like I’m asking you to sacrifice for .”

“Not at all! It’s not as exaggerated as you think.”

Xia Yuan said earnestly, “On one hand, you and Youxi work so hard developing gas and managing the company, and I can’t help much with that. Xiaoyu is now handling most of the ga music, but I really enjoy and excel in the entertainnt industry. I want to pursue this long-term. Besides, this is the company you gave —how can I just sit back and do nothing?”

“Then we’ll need to organize a proper managent team for you.”

i Fang hugged Xia Yuan’s waist and lay his head on her lap, whining playfully, “But I really don’t want you to be too busy… You won’t have ti for then.”

“But… I need to contribute sohow. I don’t want to fall behind Youxi either.”

Xia Yuan was happy to be needed by i Fang, completely unaware of any potential manipulation. “And it’s just for the next few years. Once Yuanxi Interactive stabilizes, I plan to focus on supporting your careers from ho.”

Lin Youxi found this amusing. “So after graduation, you’ll just stay at ho and not work?”

“D-depends on the situation…”

Xia Yuan tucked a strand of hair behind her ear, her face flushing. “I an… if possible, I’d like to have a baby with Ah Fang by then… So I’d probably mainly stay ho to take care of the child…”

“Yuanyuan…”

i Fang suddenly felt a surge of excitent—this was dangerous!

“But, besides taking care of the baby, I’d still want to do sothing to support Ah Fang. So I think the virtual idol path could be a long-term thing for , since it aligns with my role as CStation’s mascot.”

“That sounds like a great idea.”

Lin Youxi sat down next to i Fang. “In the future, I’ll handle external matters, and Yuanyuan can focus on ho. That way, Ah Fang will have company whether he’s working or at ho, and he won’t feel lonely.”

“As long as you two are with … I-I’ll never feel lonely—”

i Fang tugged at Lin Youxi’s arm and mumbled, “O-okay… Youxi, that’s enough… Don’t take advantage of the situation.”

Xia Yuan protested, “Tonight’s Ah Fang is mine!”

“Oh? Does it have to be tonight?”

Lin Youxi smiled. “Since Sunday is the day after tomorrow, I think Ah Fang needs to conserve his energy for the second round of the love ga competition. Don’t you agree?”

Her words reminded Xia Yuan that the week was almost over, and another round of the love ga evaluation was coming up.

Hmm…

Thinking back, this week had been full of sweet monts with Ah Fang, a stark contrast to last week’s disadvantage. But last week, she had managed to turn things around despite the odds. This week, without any major mistakes, she could easily win again if she wanted to.

But I won’t fall for that trick again!

I want Ah Fang!

Although Xia Yuan had gotten a taste last week, it was a “damaged” version of Ah Fang. By her calculations, it had been almost two weeks since she’d properly been intimate with i Fang. This week, she absolutely couldn’t lose to Lin Youxi.

Xia Yuan now understood that this love ga wasn’t about genuine romantic feelings but about justifying those feelings—allowing her to win or lose as she pleased and take what she wanted freely.

“Yuanyuan, what are you thinking about? You’re drooling.”

At Lin Youxi’s reminder, Xia Yuan quickly wiped her mouth. “Ah, it’s nothing.”

“So, about tonight—”

Xia Yuan vigilantly pulled i Fang into her arms. “I don’t care! Ah Fang is young and full of energy—tonight, he’s mine!”

“Then, by all ans.”

Faced with i Fang’s muffled protests in Xia Yuan’s embrace, Lin Youxi simply smiled.

Weekend: Judgnt Day

After bathing and changing, i Fang entered his room to find Xia Yuan and Lin Youxi already dressed up, sitting on the bed in seiza positions, waiting for him.

“Wow, what a coincidence… Both in twin tails today?”

“Well, they’re easy to manage, and this week’s the is this style.”

Xia Yuan tilted her head and glanced at Lin Youxi, then smiled. “But I didn’t expect Youxi to wear this hairstyle too.”

“Since I’m the oldest among the three, it’s normal for you to think I’m old.”

“Why do you keep bringing that up? Are you really that petty?”

“Alright, alright, no arguing. Let’s start this week’s evaluation.”

i Fang looked at Xia Yuan and Lin Youxi. “Who’s going first this ti?”

“Last ti was Yuanyuan, so I’ll go first this ti.”

Lin Youxi raised her hand. “This week was relatively calm, mostly just playing house. For , the most romantic mont with Ah Fang was Wednesday night.”

“Hey! Can nightti activities even count?!”

“…”

Faced with Xia Yuan’s outburst, Lin Youxi gave her a disapproving look. “Let finish. That night, even though I sneaked over to Ah Fang’s room, it was to reminisce about so beautiful mories from the past.”

“Beautiful mories?”

Lin Youxi nodded. “Back in middle school, when my dad said he was going to marry Auntie Liang, I didn’t understand and ran to my mom’s grave to cry. Ah Fang was the one who found .”

“I fell in the cetery, and Ah Fang carried back. Later, he convinced to try accepting the situation. I’m really grateful he was there for then. That was when I realized I loved him.”

“Yeah, I rember that…”

“And then I stayed overnight at Ah Fang’s house, right?”

“Y-yeah… Huh?”

Under Xia Yuan’s gaze, Lin Youxi looked at i Fang with tenderness. “That night, I actually sneaked into Ah Fang’s bed.”

Xia Yuan was shocked. “S-so early?! You were only in second year of middle school! H-how could you—”

“Relax, Yuanyuan…”

Lin Youxi smiled. “I just shared Ah Fang’s blanket for a little while, with my hand on his chest. Later, I went back to sleep with Xiaoya—though I think Ah Fang carried back.”

“So that’s what happened…”

Xia Yuan said wistfully, “I didn’t know you two had such a romantic mont.”

“So… on Wednesday night, I did the sa thing—sneaked into Ah Fang’s bed.”

Lin Youxi said softly, “Because soone implied I was old, I felt hurt and wanted to confide in Ah Fang while reliving those beautiful mories.”

“I-I’m sorry… That was —”

So Lin Youxi had just gone to Ah Fang for comfort.

Xia Yuan felt deeply ashad of what she’d said to Lin Youxi and what she’d done to i Fang the next day, completely missing the resigned smile on i Fang’s face.

This Youxi… She’s not lying, but she’s only telling half the truth. How sneaky.

“W-well… I think we can skip the comparisons and just vote.”

i Fang reminded Xia Yuan, “No, Yuanyuan, you have to talk about your most romantic mont with this week. You can’t just surrender.”

“My most romantic mont…”

Xia Yuan thought for a mont. “Then… it’d be calling Ah Fang ‘Daddy’ during our playing house?”

“Was that it for you?”

“Huh? Didn’t you enjoy it too? You were so happy.”

“I did, but I think mine was sothing else.”

“Then what was it?”

“Actually, it was…”

i Fang scratched his cheek sheepishly. “When you said you wanted to have a baby with . For a guy, there’s no greater expression of love than that.”

“That was it?!”

Xia Yuan blushed and muttered, “How is that romantic? That’s sothing a girlfriend or fiancée would say—it doesn’t fit the the of the love ga!”

“Calling ‘Daddy’ doesn’t fit either, but I found all these role-playing monts really touching. What do you think, Youxi?”

“It depends on personal interpretation. The judgnt is ultimately subjective.” Lin Youxi said gently, “Shall we vote now? After the countdown, point to your chosen person. Three, two, one—go!”

i Fang voted for Xia Yuan, Xia Yuan voted for Lin Youxi, and Lin Youxi voted for herself.

“Two to one. It seems I’ve won this week’s love ga…”

Although Xia Yuan lost, she didn’t mind. She was just a little surprised. “Ah Fang, why did you vote for ? That’s weird.”

“What’s weird about it?”

“Didn’t you find Youxi’s cuddling with you on Wednesday night heartwarming?”

“If it had just been the first half of the interaction, without her coaxing by calling ‘Daddy,’ then yeah, it would’ve been very pure and romantic…”

Seeing i Fang’s serene, almost enlightened expression, Xia Yuan suddenly understood and glared at Lin Youxi, who looked very pleased with herself.

“You tricked ! I really thought you were all about pure love!”

“I didn’t trick you. I really was reminiscing with Ah Fang at first.”

Lin Youxi hugged i Fang in front of Xia Yuan. “But to think wanting a baby was more important than our past romantic mories… I’m a little hurt too, Ah Fang…”

“I didn’t say it wasn’t heartwarming, but this is an objective comparison…”

Lin Youxi pressed her forehead against i Fang’s and whispered:

“Or is it—you still want to be intimate with , so you deliberately voted for—”

“I-Is that true, Ah Fang?!” Xia Yuan was shocked.

“Of course not! You two said we had to be objective… Alright, let’s get to the main event.”

i Fang hugged Lin Youxi, letting her rest in his arms as he gently massaged her back from behind. Then he began sniffing Lin Youxi’s scent, starting from her smooth, fair neck and slowly moving toward her cheeks.

During this, their fingers intertwined.

i Fang tried to kiss Lin Youxi’s lips, but she avoided him with a soft hum.

“You voted for Yuanyuan. It feels like you’re just going through the motions with now.”

“How could that be? I love both of you equally. You have to believe —”

“Then prove it with actions.”

Lin Youxi got up from i Fang’s lap and lay face-down on the bed. “Until I truly feel your love, no casual kisses to wrap things up.”

“Fine… Whatever you say. Let give you a proper massage first, so you can feel my warmth.”

Xia Yuan watched as i Fang diligently attended to Lin Youxi, dumbfounded.

“Wait, the love ga rewards can work like this?!”

Epilogue

The second week of the love ga took an unexpected turn, but the outco was ultimately reasonable—both Xia Yuan and Lin Youxi got the happiness they wanted.

The week passed peacefully.

November arrived, and 2014 gradually drew to a close.

anwhile, Yuanxi Interactive continued to advance steadily through the stormy seas of the capital market.
