Chapter 308: Didn’t We Say We Were Breaking Up? (Please vote for monthly tickets!)

Xia Yuan’s new single caused a huge stir upon release. This non-mainstream flavored “Peaceful Breakup” was her bold attempt to break away from her sweet song image. Due to the significant difference in style compared to her previous works, there were mixed reactions online.

However, this song did indeed draw attention. The next day after its release, it topped the new music hot search list on Penguin Music. The pure audio single released on Platform C also reached the top three most viewed daily list.

But compared to the reviews of the song, everyone was more curious about Xia Yuan’s emotional state.

Does this mean that the rumors about Yuanbao and Fangbao being in love are true, and now they are breaking up?

But if they really broke up, why would they be singing love songs together like this?

[Isn’t it common for couples to sing breakup songs at karaoke?]

This comment instantly sparked a flurry of responses and shared feelings among viewers.

Because they saw the changes in Xia Yuan and Mei Fang’s signatures, the close friends of Meiyuan Sanzhi initially remained silent.

Zhang Ming was the one who brought up the topic first. He asked Mei Fang directly in the group:

“Yao’naowenwohe: [Are you and Yuan Yuan fighting?]”

System Prompt: User [Yao’naowenwohe] has been muted by administrator [Your Yibao] for 10 minutes.

After muting Zhang Ming, Yue Xinyi privately scolded him, “Others are just heartbroken from their recent breakup, and you go asking in the group? Are you looking for trouble?”

“No… I was just asking! Isn’t it fine?”

“Don’t ask in the group either. Do you think before you act? Really…”

“So you know what’s going on?”

“Let’s not ask for now… They probably don’t want us to disturb them.”

Actually, Yue Xinyi was even more eager than Zhang Ming to know what happened between Mei Fang and Xia Yuan. At this moment, asking Lin You Xi might be a good idea, but she couldn’t make up her mind.

Although Xia Yuan and Lin You Xi didn’t tell her, she clearly sensed that although Xia Yuan and Mei Fang were together, Mei Fang’s relationship with Lin You Xi had deepened rather than changed. This time, if Xia Yuan and Mei Fang broke up, it might have something to do with Lin You Xi.

The best thing would be if Mei Fang and Lin You Xi weren’t secretly getting intimate and Xia Yuan found out…

If Mei Fang really was such a fickle man, eating his cake and still wanting the pie, why should she continue to ship this childhood friend couple?

She also privately messaged Guo Yun and Liu Xiaoyu, who knew the inside story, but they were also confused about what Mei Fang and Xia Yuan were doing. Their personalities were weak and they dared not speculate recklessly, saying they were unaware too. This only increased Yue Xinyi’s doubts.

Now her heart was deeply troubled.

Originally, she was very happy to ship Mei Fang and Lin You Xi as a childhood couple, but then Xia Yuan came along.

Although the love triangle was painful, at least they could still be sweet. Yue Xinyi gritted her teeth and endured it.

But in the end, Mei Fang chose Xia Yuan, which left Yue Xinyi heartbroken since she couldn’t ship her favorite pairing.

Mei Fang and Lin You Xi’s interactions originally gave Yue Xinyi some hope, but things seemed to be heading towards the most clichéd and dramatic scenario she dreaded.

Saying the CP couldn’t be shipped anymore, at least they achieved great success from school clubs to companies during their high school years. Lin Xi Technology, Similu Games, Yuanxia Music, but now with the breakup, the entire trio might be drifting apart. Just thinking about it made her sad.

We were doing so well… How did we fall apart!

Yue Xinyi could only pray that Mei Fang hadn’t done anything unfaithful.

As for Peng Xue…

Since leaving home and following her cousin to Chengdu, Peng Xue had become very quiet, almost disappearing from all online platforms. Even when Xia Yuan updated her signature, Peng Xue didn’t respond.

Xia Yuan knew Peng Xue valued her relationship with Mei Fang and was worried she would be upset seeing the updates. She really wanted to call Peng Xue and explain the situation, but she was also concerned about disturbing her training, so she was conflicted.

“Afang… What should I do? Should I call Xiaoxue and tell her?”

“At this point, there’s no need to tell her specifically… But how are you feeling? Little crybaby.”

Mei Fang pinched Xia Yuan’s cheek, but she pushed him away and started tickling him back.

“What little crybaby… I’m not a crybaby! I’ll hit you!”

Xia Yuan tackled Mei Fang onto the sofa, playing with him. At that moment, Lin You Xi came out of the kitchen with breakfast, reminding them:

“You two stop fooling around, or you’ll be late for school.”

“I wonder how everyone will view us today.”

“They’re definitely going to ask us a lot of questions.”

While eating the fried egg toast prepared by Lin You Xi, Xia Yuan pondered, “Should I act a bit more sad? Otherwise, people won’t feel that we’ve broken up…”

“Does that mean you won’t be intimate with Afang after class or during breaks, and give him to me instead?”

“That’s not right!”

Xia Yuan nodded at Lin You Xi who was serving Mei Fang bacon, “Afang is yours, but he’s also mine! How can you think of monopolizing him?”

Mei Fang summarized, “Then let’s keep our usual pace, giving everyone a small shock.”

“Even if we’ve broken up, it feels like we haven’t… It’s quite interesting…”

The deeper the affection between lovers, the more heart-wrenching the breakup, and the more estranged they seem afterward.

This is a common perspective in ordinary people’s minds.

So, is everyone finally going to witness the downfall of this famous Jiangcheng couple?

Everyone was eagerly waiting for the big breakup news of Xia Yuan and Mei Fang. Many students who were unaware spread the gossip, speculating about the reasons for their breakup.

Post-game analysis A: “I said, how could childhood sweethearts become lovers? There’s no sense of love anymore!”

Gossip enthusiast B: “Maybe it’s because Mei Fang cheated. As they say, home flowers never smell as sweet as wild ones.”

Solo supporter D of Yuan Yuan: “How could that be! If you find someone in school better than Xia Yuan, I’ll call you dad!”

Loyal yuri fan C: “Why do you always look for reasons in them? I think Xia Yuan and her good friend Lin You Xi get along well. Maybe they realized they’re meant for each other, and Mei Fang was just a coincidence?”

As everyone speculated, Xia Yuan appeared on campus.

“She’s here! She’s alone!”

“The greatest love of this century turned out to be just a pile of sand, scattered by the wind…”

“Wah, my childhood sweethearts—”

Just as everyone felt pain over the confirmed breakup of Xia Yuan and Mei Fang, Lin You Xi and Mei Fang appeared soon after.

Xia Yuan stood at the door, hands on her hips, seemingly complaining. Mei Fang approached and patted her head, and Xia Yuan retaliated. They playfully bickered, while Lin You Xi looked at them indulgently, the scene as harmonious as yesterday.

This left the onlookers on the balcony bewildered.

“??? Didn’t we say we were breaking up? Is this a publicity stunt?”
