My childhood sweetheart, who was reborn with me, ended up as a loser.

Chapter 1 Fake Alcohol Harms People

"Xia Xiaoxiao, you've ruined my life!"

"You're talking nonsense... If I hadn't encouraged you to write novels back then, and painstakingly revised your manuscripts, you'd probably still be stuck in some shady factory, screwing in screws!"

"Who told you that!"

A young couple sat on the messy living room floor; the man was angry, and the woman was guilty.

Xu Qingfan angrily crushed the empty soda can, but this was all he could do in front of Xia Xiaoxiao, whose bloodline suppressed him.

Xu Qingfan sighed, "Big sister, I'll be twenty-eight after my birthday. You don't want to get married or find a partner, so you can't drag me down with you, can you?"

"You're the eldest sister, and you'll only be twenty-seven after your birthday. Can't you even do math?" Xia Xiaoxiao finally sounded a bit more confident.

"Ask my mom, she says that's how you calculate age using the traditional Chinese age system!"

That darn Chinese age reckoning!

"My mom also said that when she was 28, I was already in first grade, and she asked us when we planned to get married?"

"So what did you say?" Xia Xiaoxiao panicked. Although her tone was particularly disdainful, her rapidly beating heart betrayed her true feelings.

"What else can I say? I'll just say you don't want to get married because of your parents!"

Xia Xiaoxiao felt a pang of disappointment, but her face remained smug: "Hmph, you knew it!"

"I know you my ass!" Xu Qingfan punched her in the chest in anger.

Perhaps because he had been drinking, he didn't realize he had made a mistake until the bouncy softness traveled through his central nervous system to his brain.

Xu Qingfan was prepared to get a beating, but after waiting for a long time, Xia Xiaoxiao didn't beat him up as he expected. Instead, she apologized in a tone that was neither too harsh nor too soft:

"I'm sorry."

Now that Xia Xiaoxiao had taken the initiative to show weakness, Xu Qingfan was about to explode. He slammed his hand on the floor, his hand throbbing with pain. "Ouch~ What good is it for you to apologize to me? You'll have to give me a girlfriend!"

Xu Qingfan was really angry. He had managed to hook up with a female reader in his fan group who was fair-skinned, beautiful, and had long legs. After flirting for more than half a month, the two were almost dating.

As it turned out, Xia Xiaoxiao showed up during their first video chat. That scoundrel must have found out from somewhere, because he came right after taking a shower, wearing nothing but his pajamas.

She rested her chin on Xu Qingfan's shoulder and asked in a sweet, coquettish voice, "Honey, who is she?"

Xu Qingfan's budding romance ended abruptly.

"I'll pay you back my ass... If all else fails, I'll buy you some 'Gentle Cat Food' from Pinduoduo, okay?" Under Xu Qingfan's murderous gaze, Xia Xiaoxiao's voice grew softer and softer.

"Xia Xiaoxiao, look at you! University was my own fault for being addicted to online games, but that doesn't count. Let's start from elementary school!"

"In first grade, my pretty deskmate and I were sitting together just fine, but you, being the class monitor, tattled on us to the teacher, saying we were talking in class, and you practically broke us up!"

"Back in junior high, I had a crush on someone in your class, so I wrote her a love letter and asked you to give it to her. And what did you do?!"

"Taking advantage of my trust, you photographed the love letter and sent it to the class group chat, making sure to include the group with your homeroom teacher, as if you were afraid I wouldn't be finished soon enough!"

Xia Xiaoxiao remained silent, only lowering her head, her cheeks puffing out wider and wider.

"Because of you, I was under strict surveillance by my homeroom teacher for three years of junior high school. Of course, I was also at fault for trusting you, but I won't go into that."

"In high school, you became even more of a master of being inhuman!"

"I'm too lazy to repeat how handsome I was in high school; the girls who wanted to date me stretched from the school gate to the school cafeteria!"

[shameless......]

Xia Xiaoxiao only dared to mutter to herself in her heart while her younger brother was still angry.

"I was just about to start a sweet romance, and you, instead, go around telling everyone that I have a bad back and that my dark circles are because I'm always giving advice at home. But I'm just staying up all night playing on my phone!"

"Never mind all that, you even falsely accused me of sniffing your underwear, and even said it was 'top-grade'! "

"Look at my eye!" Xu Qingfan gritted his teeth in anger.

Xia Xiaoxiao couldn't help but laugh as she recalled all the bad things she had done in the past.

She stubbornly retorted, "But I apologized to you afterwards and made it clear that I said that because I have a crush on you and was afraid you would date other girls."

"If they don't believe there's any way to change it, is that my fault?"

Xu Qingfan was completely at his wit's end and lay on the floor, utterly despondent.

He just wants to have a sweet romance, why is that so hard?

Xia Xiaoxiao felt a little guilty seeing her little brother like this. If all else failed, she would just give herself to him as compensation, as if she had been bitten by a dog.

Besides, she's 26 years old this year. It would be a lie to say she doesn't want men, otherwise she wouldn't spend more than an hour showering every week.

"Hey, you're not going to cry, are you?" Xia Xiaoxiao saw Xu Qingfan's shoulders twitching, so she reached out and pried open his arm that was covering his eyes. Thankfully, he wasn't crying.

"Why are you twitching your shoulder if you're not crying? You're sick in the head."

"You're the one who made me angry!"

Xu Qingfan felt that if he could do it all over again, he would definitely stay far away from this toxic Xia Xiaoxiao!

"Get up and have a drink! You can dream about anything, and if you get drunk, you'll get a girlfriend."

Xu Qingfan was incredibly heavy. Xia Xiaoxiao tried to pull him up, but couldn't budge him.

"I wish I could go back to kindergarten after getting drunk. I would definitely tell my mom that I want to take the entrance exam for the Experimental Primary School instead of going to the same school as you, who is a troublemaker."

"You talk like you can pass the exam yourself. Your pig brain is beyond words. If I didn't keep an eye on your studies, you wouldn't even pass high school!"

"It's even better if I don't pass the exam. I'll just go to America and beg for food, and I'll get food again, brothers!"

"Hehehe, you silly boy, aside from not letting you date, how have I ever treated you badly? I'm practically as good as your mother!"

"Since you like to call people 'Mom' in the game anyway, why don't you just call me 'Mom'!" Xia Xiaoxiao rested her head on his lap, looking at him with hazy eyes.

"Get out of here! Without me taking care of your every need, all that extra 100 pounds of weight gain would have been for nothing! You'd be more likely to call me 'Dad'!"

As soon as Xu Qingfan finished speaking, he lost his balance and fell onto Xia Xiaoxiao, their foreheads making intimate contact.

"Ugh~ Xu Qingfan, are you trying to kill me?!" Xia Xiaoxiao clutched the spot where she had been hit and raised her hand to slap him.

He raised his hand heavily, then gently lowered it. I must say, Xu Qingfan is quite handsome. He's almost twenty-eight, but his eyes are bright, and he still has that youthful air from high school.

This is probably related to the fact that he has never worked or experienced hardship.

But no matter what, it truly lives up to its reputation as Xia Xiaoxiao's carefully selected products!

Xu Qingfan was also staring blankly into Xia Xiaoxiao's eyes. In fact, he had always known why he hadn't been able to have a relationship all these years, just like how a guy can't accept his girlfriend having a male best friend.

Which girl can accept her boyfriend having female brothers?

However, it was clear that Xu Qingfan could not sever ties with Xia Xiaoxiao. Despite his grumbling and cursing, he had long considered Xia Xiaoxiao as family.

After all, they've been childhood sweethearts since birth!

Xu Qingfan suddenly leaned close to Xia Xiaoxiao's face and said in a magnetic voice, "Hey, Xia Xiaoxiao, how about we give it a try?"

After he finished speaking, he let out a burp, and a strong smell of alcohol wafted onto Xia Xiaoxiao's face, but it didn't smell bad at all. Instead, it made her cheeks flush.

Xia Xiaoxin's heart was pounding. After twenty-six years, this blockhead has finally come to his senses!

It was just that the inertia she had developed over the years led her to take actions that best suited her public persona.

"Try my foot!" Xia Xiaoxiao pushed him off her with force.

"Okay, come on..." Xu Qingfan muttered, taking her hand and guiding it downwards.

"I, I'm going to the toilet!" Xia Xiaoxiao pulled her hand back as if she had been electrocuted, and hurriedly got up to run away.

She deliberately slowed down her movements, afraid that Xu Qingfan wouldn't be able to stop her. But when she was about to leave, Xu Qingfan actually didn't stop her.

Xia Xiaoxiao looked down and realized that Xu Qingfan, that jerk, had actually fallen asleep!

"Depend on!"

People can actually laugh when they're speechless.

Xia Xiaoxiao was too lazy to move. She went back to the bedroom to get a pillow and a blanket, covered Xu Qingfan with the blanket, and then, after thinking for a moment, quickly took off her only nightgown and crawled in as well.

[Tomorrow we'll say he was drunk and promiscuous!]

With this thought in mind, Xia Xiaoxiao quickly drifted off to sleep.

But she didn't sleep well that night. Her consciousness was constantly between wakefulness and dreams. Sometimes she dreamed that she was married to Xu Gouzi, and sometimes she dreamed that she had returned to her childhood.

When she regained consciousness, she was shocked to discover that there were four other girls wearing wedding dresses with her.

And they were actually going to marry Xu Qingfan at the same time!

Are you kidding me?

She was actually laughing so happily!

Xia Xiaoxiao suddenly woke up from her dream.

soon.

"ah--!"

A sharp, shrill child's voice shattered the tranquility of the afternoon at Red Star Kindergarten.
