Only After I Was Reborn Did I Realize That I Had Childhood Sweethearts

Chapter 82: Will He Still Remember My Mom

Chapter 82: Will He Still Remember My Mom

Mei Fang walked with Lin Youxi in the cemetery. The ground was slippery, and Lin Youxi had fallen before due to running too fast, so Mei Fang would pause slightly with each step.

Lin Youxi leaned quietly on Mei Fangs shoulder. His sturdy and broad back made Lin Youxi, who was originally feeling confused and overwhelmed, feel very reassured. Unconsciously, she recalled the heartwarming scene of her father carrying her to watch fireworks.

If only things could stay like this forever, that would be wonderful

By the way, Youxi, why arent you afraid of ghosts at all? You dare to come here alone

Why should I be afraid?

Lin Youxi asked in confusion, Each grave here represents someone whom others long for but cannot see.

Besides my mother is also here.

Listening to Lin Youxis explanation, Mei Fang felt a soft spot in his heart being touched.

That makes sense.

What a good child.

Mei Fang carried Lin Youxi out of the cemetery and sat down on a bench in the small wooden shed outside the cemetery.

You sit here for a while. Its hard to get a taxi here. Ill go hail a taxi on the roadside.

Okay.

Rubbing her hands, Lin Youxi gazed at the surroundings of the shed and suddenly spoke up, It seems like we spent time here together when we were kids.

Yes, it was raining that day, and we were hiding from the rain here, and then

Mei Fang didnt finish his sentence before rushing out to hail a cab. Lin Youxis gaze followed Mei Fangs figure, unable to contain the affectionate smile on her lips.

Why does Ah Fang always appear when I need him the most?

Amidst the hustle and bustle of the New Year, Mei Fang quickly hailed a cab and hurried back to Lin Youxi. She could now move on her own, and Mei Fang only helped her get into the taxi.

However, before getting into the taxi, Lin Youxi stopped Mei Fang.

Where are we going?

Where arent we going to your house?

Lin Youxi shook her head, I dont want to go home tonight. I dont want to see him.

Suddenly, familiar memories of Mei Fang struck him. Youre not planning to run away from home like Yuan Yuan, are you?

Lin Youxi shook her head, Its not running away from home. I just dont want to stay at home.

Then come to my house first. Ill ask Yuan Yuan if you can stay at their house later.

Um.

Lin Youxi nodded with pursed lips.

Mei Fang took a taxi with Lin Youxi back to his home. The first thing he did when he returned was to take out the small medicine box and help Lin Youxi treat the wound on her knee.

There are already some scabs. Does it still hurt a lot now?

Lin Youxi shook her head, Its much better.

Okay, thats good. Do you want something to eat? Ill get it for you.

Id like something hot to drink.

Then Ill make you a cup of milk, its the growth milk powder that Xiaoya usually drinks.

Okay.

Oh, by the way, I need to call your dad and Yuan Yuan first, otherwise your dad will worry about you.

Lin Youxi didnt say anything, just sat on the sofa wrapped in a blanket, looking absent-minded.

Ah Fang what do you think about this? Lin Youxi asked.

About my dad wanting to find a new mom for me.

Mei Fang picked up the landline phone and then put it back down.

Well after all, its your family matter, Im just an outsider, its not right for me to say anything.

Lin Youxi interrupted Mei Fangs words, Dont say that, I just want to hear your opinion.

As for me

Mei Fang, who has the mindset of an adult, can understand Lin Youxis fathers intention to remarry at this time.

He had raised Lin Youxi alone from a very young age, taking care of her daily life and education, all while being busy with work and having no personal life of his own.

But if its purely from the perspective of considering marital life, its not quite right, because Mei Fang knows Lin Guochuan well. He is not that kind of person, otherwise, he wouldnt have waited 10 years to consider this matter.

If its a moral coercion like your dad is doing this for your own good, you should be understanding, I wont say that Your dad must have made a tough decision before doing this.

Mei Fang thought for a moment, I just dont quite agree with the idea that you think your dad has abandoned your mom with this decision.

Hes already planning to be with another woman, isnt that considered abandoning?

Lets assume if your mom could see you at her grave, seeing you crying and shouting in front of her, asking why everyone else has a mother but you dont, wouldnt she feel sad? Wouldnt she want to be there for you

This was what happened when Lin Youxi and Mei Fang went to sweep her mothers grave four years ago.

To this day, the scene of Lin Youxi crying still vividly remained in Mei Fangs memory.

Mei Fang left the landline phone and went to the kitchen to prepare the milk powder. While making milk for Lin Youxi, he continued, Because your mom couldnt be there to love and support you, I think she might support your dads decision.

Mei Fang added, Moreover, your dad has spent the past decade honoring the memory of your mom. Those years are the most precious and vibrant years of his life. He has devoted himself entirely to preserving the love they shared. I believe his commitment is truly admirable.

Then do you think, Lin Youxi looked up at Mei Fang, If my dad marries a new woman, will he still remember my mom?

Mei Fang nodded, I believe he wont forget your mom in the future, you will still visit your mom six times a year, maybe even more? In any case, the impression Uncle Lin left on me is that kind of person, of course, you know him better than I do.

He handed the freshly prepared milk to Lin Youxi, and as she held the warm milk in her hands, her mood gradually calmed down.

I never said that my dad must steadfastly remain in love with my mom and grow old alone.

Lin Youxi lowered her head silently, Ive always felt since a very young age that my dads devotion to my mom is the greatest love in the world. But if he continues to do so now, I would feel I would feel

You would feel having a knot in your heart, right? Thats very normal.

Mei Fang sat beside Lin Youxi, While great love is worth celebrating, its often elusive. Most people always have to move forward. For us ordinary people, pursuing love is already a luxury. Just striving to live is already a great effort.

Lin Youxi took a sip of milk, leaving a white milk stain on her lips.

I actually think Ah Fang, youre not an ordinary person.

Huh?

The things youre just saying to me, it doesnt sound like something a freshman middle schooler would say. Youre much more mature than boys your age.

Mei Fang scratched the back of his head, Uh I read a lot of inspirational stories from Duzhe Magazine. Also, I read Meng Ya and Youth Digest.

Anyway thank you for telling to me so much. I feel much better now. Lin Youxis furrowed brow relaxed.

Then, can you go back and have a good talk with your dad now?

Lin Youxi shook her head, Thats no good. Im not ready yet. I dont want to see him for now.

In that case Ill go make the phone calls.

Mei Fang separately called Lin Guochuans phone and Xia Yuans home, explaining that Lin Youxi wanted to stay at Xia Yuans house for the night to calm down. Lin Guochuan expressed his support and understanding for his daughter, and as for Xia Yuan, Mei Fang briefly explained the situation and asked if it was okay for Lin Youxi to stay over.

Why today There are so many people at our house today I have to help take care of some relatives

From Xia Yuans phone came the noisy and chaotic sounds, with Mei Yas voice being the loudest.

Does Youxi want to stay at your house tonight? Also, Mei Ya said she wants to sleep with her sister Youxi Why dont you take her home too?

Mei Fang chuckled coldly upon hearing this, Now you know how formidable my sister is, right?

IIm not strong enough yet. Xiaoya is really too energetic, wuuu

From the phone came Xia Yuans crying and Mei Yas carefree laughter.
