Chapter 343: Regaining the Feeling of Love

After returning from the Shennongjia, Mei Fang continued to renew the lease on their love nest in Jiangcheng until the end of July. This month was busy for him—attending graduation banquets for his classmates, preparing for the move, and taking his driving test.

Typically, it takes half a year or more to get a driving license, but due to Mei Boss’s special status, he had a private instructor arranged by the driving school to accompany him during practice.

Since Mei Fang had previously passed the driving test in his past life, he picked up driving quickly. Through a special fast-track program, he obtained his license in less than two weeks.

After getting his license, the first thing they did was go car shopping.

Following advice from Xia Xun, the most renowned car expert around, Mei Fang chose the Benz S-Class 550 sports car.

The high-end version of this luxury car was priced at 1.8 million yuan in 2014. A distinctive feature was its spacious and luxurious rear seats, which provided a very comfortable experience.

Lin You Xi felt that the only drawback was the center armrest between the rear seats, which affected her desire to fully relax. After discussing with the 4S store, they modified the interior by removing the leather armrest.

In theory, given Mei Fang’s current status, having a dedicated driver would be appropriate, but clearly, they still enjoyed spending time together as a trio.

In the last few days of July, the three of them packed up their belongings at home, planning to send most of it directly to their new home in Pengcheng. Due to the embarrassment of certain items, they couldn’t send everything back.

Of course, textbooks, review materials, and some group photos were planned to be sent home.

Mei Fang didn’t quite understand why Xia Yuan wanted to send the photos.

“Other things can be sent back, so why not bring these photos directly to Pengcheng?”

“I can’t do that, I need to send them back to keep.”

Xia Yuan said seriously, “Didn’t I tell you before? I want to open a memory museum someday, recording all the little moments we shared. Plus…”

Lin You Xi, playing with Xia Yuan’s favorite full-length mirror nearby, asked:

“Should we send the full-length mirror back or take it to Pengcheng? It’s not easy to pack, so maybe we should just leave it here.”

“No way! That wouldn’t do! This mirror is an important witness to our beautiful relationship, let’s take it to Pengcheng.”

“But it might break on the way…”

Seeing Xia Yuan cherish the mirror, Mei Fang sighed helplessly and said, “We’ll wrap it carefully. If necessary, we can put it in the trunk of our car.”

“Ah Fang just got his license, he’s still in the probationary period, so he can’t drive on the highway yet.”

“I can’t… but someone is willing to drive for free for me…”

At the beginning of August, Mei Lijun, dressed in travel attire, arrived in Jiangcheng by train to drive his son and his girlfriends to Pengcheng.

After greeting the three of them, Mei Lijun impatiently asked his son to show him the new car.

“This is the famous S550… My goodness, this emblem, these headlights… the feel of the leather seats… this steering wheel—”

Mei Fang patted his father’s back, “Alright, alright, don’t let You Xi and Yuan Yuan see you like this.”

Lin You Xi and Xia Yuan knew Mei Lijun loved cars, and seeing his enthusiasm for the new car, Lin You Xi couldn’t help but suggest, “Uncle Mei, if you really like this car, I can have one custom-made for you when we reach Pengcheng.”

“No, no, no! Our unit has its own cars, and it wouldn’t look good for me, as a director, to drive such a nice car.”

“Your son is the station chief of C Station, a leader in the internet industry. It’s not too much for you to drive an S550.”

“Don’t worry about it… Really, there’s no need…”

“Uncle Mei, if you want to drive it, you don’t have to do it during work hours. You can take it out on weekends with Aunt Xia and Aunt Xiang.”

Xia Yuan also encouraged Mei Lijun, “If Aunt Xiang disagrees, I can say it’s my gift to you.”

“Oh, how embarrassing…”

“Right, Yuan Yuan, now I’m Ah Fang’s girlfriend, I can deliver this car to Uncle Mei. You don’t have to spend money on it.”

“Oh, then… I think Uncle Mei’s current car is old. If I want to give him a new one, what’s wrong with that?”

Lin You Xi and Xia Yuan stood off against each other, which startled Mei Lijun, who quickly tried to defuse the situation.

“You don’t need to argue over this. I appreciate your intentions, but it’s really not necessary. I just need to enjoy driving your car occasionally.”

Oh, how considerate these two girls are… Where did my son get such good fortune…

Mei Fang felt very relieved seeing this.

Intentionally provoking conflict to make his father feel pressure from both daughters, thereby increasing support for their threesome, Mei Fang felt proud.

Yuan Yuan and You Xi are amazing!

From Jiangcheng to Pengcheng, a journey of a thousand kilometers, Mei Lijun hummed songs while driving, while Mei Fang rested in the passenger seat. However, Xia Yuan and Lin You Xi remained busy in the backseat.

Contrary to what Mei Fang expected, Xia Yuan and Lin You Xi hadn’t rehearsed their actions today.

Xia Yuan was a bit upset due to Lin You Xi’s recent behavior as the official girlfriend.

[It feels like You Xi is being too pushy lately… Even telling everyone that she’s Ah Fang’s current girlfriend is fine, but why even mention it in front of Uncle Mei… It made me feel awkward.]

[I’m just trying to play the role of Ah Fang’s official girlfriend properly. In that situation, it was impossible to show favoritism, otherwise, Uncle Mei would think I lack tact.]

[Hmph… whatever you say. But when I was Ah Fang’s official girlfriend before, I never declared it everywhere.]

Lin You Xi thought for a moment and continued typing:

[I’m sorry, it’s my fault. I was too focused on playing the role of Ah Fang’s girlfriend and didn’t consider your feelings, Yuan Yuan. I got carried away.]

Although Xia Yuan was emotional, she was generally reasonable. Seeing Lin You Xi’s apologetic expression, Xia Yuan realized she had been too harsh and apologized as well:

[It’s also my fault! I know I was being unreasonable. I’m just too concerned about how Ah Fang’s family perceives me… Please understand. Anyway, I apologize too.]

[Just apologizing isn’t enough to show my sincerity. We should break up in August.]

[What? Break up?]

Xia Yuan was shocked and looked at the smiling Lin You Xi beside her.

[It’s not time yet! I was just making a comment… I’m not really blaming you. Don’t do this… I’ll be sad too. We’re best friends, and now we’re fighting over Ah Fang like rivals.]

[Yes, I feel it’s absurd too, so I plan to break up with Ah Fang. @Ah Fang, you’re going to be dumped by me.]

Mei Fang, still resting in the front seat, woke up after Lin You Xi tapped his head.

“What’s wrong?”

“Check the chat history.”

Lin You Xi leaned close to Mei Fang’s ear.

Mei Fang read through the conversation between Xia Yuan and Lin You Xi, increasingly surprised.

[Why break up so early? I don’t think Yuan Yuan was blaming you.]

[Exactly!]

[Don’t be nervous, what’s there to be nervous about…]

Lin You Xi continued typing,

[I’m breaking up with Ah Fang to regain the feeling of love.]

[Feeling of love? Aren’t we already in love?]

[Don’t you think it’s too fast to jump from friendship to family? Our love has hardly any chance outside of bed.]

[Stop emphasizing that…]

[In short, I think we can rebuild our feelings of love in college. It’s a good opportunity.]

I finished writing this and felt emo. I should have written it differently.
