Chapter 211: If You Want to Call Him Fang, Then Just Call Him Fang (Extra Chapter for Class Leader Zui Dongfeng and Student Ji Ge)
Since Mei Fang shared the studio’s monthly financial report, Xia Yuan and Lin You Xi can now check on Mei Fang’s financial records anytime.
Currently, the income from various games barely makes a profit, but the monthly savings amount to only tens of thousands of yuan.
The account shown to Xia Yuan and Lin You Xi has over five hundred thousand yuan, but they roughly know that Mei Fang has his own secret stash. They don’t pry much into it, and Mei Fang also doesn’t want them to know he’s already a millionaire, so they can still enjoy their high school life.
From Xia Yuan’s perspective, her concern about Mei Fang’s spending isn’t unreasonable. “With no new game in development and ongoing expenses on C Station, the income from other games is currently average. I’m not saying you can’t spend money, but at least wait until my new album is released.”
“Once your new album is out, will you take care of me?”
“Of course, if that’s what you want.”
Xia Yuan pinched Mei Fang’s cheek, looking somewhat unhappy. “Saying such formal things, when most of the credit for the album is yours.”
“This isn’t being formal; it’s just the charm of life.”
Mei Fang pinched Xia Yuan’s nose with a smile. “Who wouldn’t want to be pampered by a cute little rich lady?”
In fact, Mei Fang’s rise to wealth started with Xia Yuan’s ten yuan.
Without those ten yuan, there would be no sports betting, no Mei Lijun’s success, no Mei Ya’s birth, no Mei Fang’s home computer, and no future story of meeting Lin You Xi through coding games.
Although revealing this would expose Mei Fang’s reincarnation status, even if he didn’t tell Xia Yuan, she would be flattered by the term “little rich lady.”
“What little rich lady? Compared to your boss, I’m poor.”
“So it’s all about the charm of life.”
Lin You Xi had been quietly watching Mei Fang and Xia Yuan interact. She never got jealous but found it amusing. When Xia Yuan and Mei Fang ran out of things to say, Lin You Xi chimed in.
“In any case, let’s first ask a few tent suppliers from Wood Blue Sky Lake. With two classes going together, we should be able to negotiate a better price.”
“If You Xi organizes it, I think we can persuade the class committee. A collective vote might have Shang Qin as the only one with objections. She likes to oppose You Xi.”
Shang Qin is the PE monitor of Class 5, a teammate of Xiang Bingbing in the basketball team. She has always been at odds with Lin You Xi due to the class president election, which was mentioned earlier.
Xia Yuan tilted her head toward Mei Fang. “You’re neither a class monitor nor the class president. Why should the students in your class listen to you and go to Wood Blue Sky Lake?”
“I’m not a class monitor, but I am a top student. Xiang Bingbing, the PE monitor, is my good friend. We have the responsibility and duty to lead the class on a meaningful and fun spring outing. The Class Committee of Grade One, Class Three.”
Both Xia Yuan and Lin You Xi gave Mei Fang a look of disdain.
“Are you referencing that broadcast script you wrote in elementary school when you were the flag raiser?”
“It’s quite interesting, ha!”
In elementary school, being the flag raiser was a great honor. Before each flag-raising ceremony, the broadcaster would read the daily achievements written by the flag raisers themselves.
Of course, everyone followed a template, so the stories were similar.
After brushing off Mei Fang’s joke, Lin You Xi continued, “Bingbing is quite popular in your class. If she helps you, persuading the class committee and classmates shouldn’t be hard. Plus, everyone wants to go to Wood Blue Sky Lake but worries about the cost.”
“So, let’s contact them tonight and find their contact information online.”
After contacting several shops at Wood Blue Sky Lake and confirming their discount plans, Mei Fang decided to subsidize about a third of the camping fees to create a memorable spring outing.
Xia Yuan calculated that the subsidy would be around one or two thousand yuan, which wasn’t too much. She agreed to Mei Fang’s idea of moving funds.
The next day, Mei Fang told Class President He Luoyun about his relative owning a shop in Wood Blue Sky Lake and explained the discounts and costs involved.
Of course, in Mei Fang’s statement, they needed over 100 people to get the discount, and he knew Class President Lin You Xi from Class 5, who also hoped to go to Wood Blue Sky Lake for a spring outing.
After hearing Mei Fang’s explanation, the class committee members were very interested in going to Wood Blue Sky Lake. During the break, they organized a class meeting to vote on the spring outing location, with nearly eighty percent voting for Wood Blue Sky Lake.
“Then we’ll temporarily decide to go to Wood Blue Sky Lake for our spring outing?”
“Great! We can go on an outing and ship some CPs, I feel so good!”
Wang Jiayu’s teasing immediately caused a burst of laughter in the classroom. Many students focused on Mei Fang, the key figure behind the decision, but the shameless Mei Fang didn’t blush.
With the funding subsidy, Class 5 also voted to go to Wood Blue Sky Lake. Thus, the joint spring outing plan between Class 3 and Class 5 was finalized.
Lin You Xi, Xia Yuan, and Liu Xiaoyu came to Class 3 specifically to discuss class cooperation. Usually, Lin You Xi would take Mei Fang away, so people rarely saw her directly.
Liu Xiaoyu obediently followed Lin You Xi to jot down some points. Xia Yuan wasn’t interested in discussing this; she immediately went to chat with Xiang Bingbing but kept her eyes on Mei Fang.
“Oh, Bingbing, you’re sitting with Fang again?”
“Of course.”
Xia Yuan then whispered to Xiang Bingbing.
“So, do you know if Fang has any close female friends in the class recently?”
“Yes, of course. Mei Fang is very popular in our class.”
Hearing this, Xia Yuan became alert and glared at the innocent-looking Mei Fang. She asked, “Which one? Can you show me?”
“Of course! The girl closest to Mei Fang in our class is—”
“Ta-da!”
Xiang Bingbing smiled and pointed at herself. “I, Xiang Bingbing, am the girl closest to Mei Fang in our class!”
“Don’t joke, we’re serious here.”
Xia Yuan said irritably, “I’m asking about someone else besides you.”
Xiang Bingbing seemed unhappy. “Why exclude me? I have a close relationship with Mei Fang.”
“What do you mean by close?”
Mei Fang, eager to survive, quickly interjected, “She helps me get breakfast, that’s all. It’s hard to get morning stir-fried noodles, but Bingbing makes it easy. In return, I lend her my homework and notes sometimes.”
“That’s fine, I guess…”
Xiang Bingbing knew Xia Yuan and Lin You Xi liked Mei Fang, but she felt Xia Yuan didn’t take her seriously. She continued to grumble.
“What do you mean ‘fine’? Others can’t even bring breakfast for Mei Fang. I share the best God’s Ridge chestnuts with Mei Fang first. And—”
“Alright, alright, Bingbing has worked hard enough.”
Xia Yuan gently patted Xiang Bingbing’s head and reminded her, “Just keep this up. Be the closest girl to Fang in Class 3. If anyone gets closer than you, let us know.”
“Relax, there won’t be anyone like that. No one can match our relationship.”
“Mei Fang, not Fang.”
Mei Fang reminded her.
“Oh, calling Mei Fang really can get confusing.”
“Just call her Fang, it’s fine,” Xia Yuan said with a smile.
“So, Bingbing, you don’t mind at all?”
“Because Bingbing is cute and our good friend.”
Xia Yuan hugged Xiang Bingbing and leaned close to her. Xiang Bingbing was delighted, “Then I’ll call her Fang from now on. Calling Mei Fang feels weird, ahahaha.”
Lin You Xi discussed matters with He Luoyun and kept watching Xia Yuan chatting happily with Mei Fang.
When the class committee confirmed the plans, Lin You Xi called Xia Yuan back to the classroom.
On the way upstairs, she suddenly stared at Xia Yuan.
“We agreed to discuss the spring outing, but you were just talking to Fang.”
Xia Yuan stuck out her tongue sheepishly, “I just wanted to say hello… before I knew it—”
“This evening, Fang is mine during the break. You don’t mind, right?”
“No, no… sorry.”
Lin You Xi’s cold demeanor made Xia Yuan, who was previously confident, lower her head and apologize. Liu Xiaoyu was so shocked she couldn’t even speak.
There will be two more chapters later, possibly pushed to tomorrow…
This time, I promise one update before 2 AM.
