“Hey, Ah Fang, just tell me, do you like Youxi?”

“What do you think?” Mei Fang raised his eyebrows.

“Yeah, I think you like it.”

Xia Yuan’s eyes sparkled, “I’ve never seen Youxi rely on someone so much, um… except me.”

She smiled again as she spoke, “Besides, since I’m dead, I also hope to see you two take care of each other.”

“Youxi lacked family love since she was a child, and she has never had any friends since she grew up, so you are also very important to her, and she relies on you very much.”

“As for you, Fang, I don’t think you are a very brave person… but you are very empathetic to others, and you also want to protect Youxi. If you want to protect Youxi, you will have the courage and strength. The two of you just complement each other…”

Xia Yuan lowered his head as he spoke. Mei Fang

“So what if you come out after fulfilling your wish?”

“What…what should I do?”

Xia Yuan suddenly blushed and muttered, “Please don’t change the subject! Let’s just talk about Youxi.”

“I won’t confess to Youxi.”

Mei Fang shook his head, “Because I know that’s not your true wish.”

Seeing Mei Fang’s firm expression and his gaze directed at Xia Yuan without any wavering look, Xia Yuan slowly compromised hesitantly.

“Since Ah Fang has said so…then I won’t force you.”

Xia Yuan thought about it and said, “Well, maybe I still have a wish that may not have been fulfilled.”

“What wish?”

“Celebrate Youxi’s birthday.”

Xia Yuan lowered her head and muttered, “I promised Youxi that I would spend her 10th birthday with her, but I broke the promise.”

“Youxi’s birthday…I remember it shouldn’t be these days, right?”

Mei Fang pondered, “I remember Youxi said before that it should be the birthday in winter.”

“Yeah, her birthday isn’t until February.”

Xia Yuan lowered his head and muttered, “But my birthday… should be in the next few days, so we can use my birthday as an excuse to hold a birthday party, but in reality we’ll be spending the day with Youxi.”

“can.”

Mei Fang nodded, “Then I’ll prepare it.”

“Oh, oh, don’t buy too many things! Just buy the cake. I can find other birthday hats, candles, firecrackers and other things at the mall. You don’t have any money.”

Xia Yuan held his chin with his hand, revealing a regretful expression, “If only I could bring the things from the mall out to you, then you could rely on me to make a fortune.”

Xia Yuan tried to pass items from the mirror world into Mei Fang’s world, including Xia Yuan’s own hands, but that was impossible. Xia Yuan began to feel resistance as soon as Mei Fang pulled him out slightly.

“This is nothing, what kind of cake do you want to eat?”

“Strawberry cake!” Xia Yuan said, “I like sweet strawberries, but it would also be nice if there was chocolate…”

“Okay, then let’s buy a strawberry chocolate cake.” Mei Fang reached into the mirror with a doting look on his face and patted Xia Yuan’s head. Xia Yuan was so happy that he danced with joy.

“Okay, I can finally celebrate my birthday! I want to treat this birthday as a birthday I celebrated with Youxi. What birthday present should I give Youxi?”

Mei Fang shook her head and warned Xia Yuan, “Why did you give Youxi a birthday present? Youxi will be able to sense your intentions.”

Xia Yuan was startled when he heard this, and quickly patted his chest, “Oh, yes, yes, Ah Fang is smarter and more cautious, I completely forgot about it.”

“You better be more careful, you idiot.”

“But…if I don’t give Youxi anything at all, then wouldn’t it really just be a birthday celebration for me?”

Xia Yuan looked at Mei Fang expectantly, “Master Fang, how can I give Youxi a gift without her thinking I have ulterior motives? Please teach me!”

Mei Fang pinched Xia Yuan’s cheek, and then said, “Let me think about what to do first… Anyway, I still need to discuss the birthday party with Youxi.”

“Well, wait until Youxi comes over this afternoon! We’ll talk about it together!”

Lin Youxi comes to Mei Fang’s house a little later recently because she has to organize Xia Yuan’s study lesson plans in the morning. She really wants to improve Xia Yuan’s academic ability to the level of a high school student.

So when Teacher Lin came to Mei Fang’s house and heard about Xia Yuan and Mei Fang’s ideas, his first reaction was quite surprised.

“Yuanyuan, don’t you want to study anymore? Are you just thinking about this?”

“No, no! My birthday is coming soon! Hehehe…”

Xia Yuan scratched his head and said, “I just want to eat birthday cake. It’s tiring to cook for myself all the time…”

“Then I can cook for you every day.”

Lin Youxi said, “Fang can give you the food.”

“But then we can’t take the dishes back, right?”

“Use disposable bowls, and you have chopsticks and spoons right there.”

Lin Youxi said gently, “I can bring you food every day.”

Xia Yuan muttered and waved his hands, “Alright, alright, let’s talk about the birthday first! I just want to celebrate my birthday together. You guys are going back to school soon, so you can’t stay with me like this forever.”

“…”

Lin Youxi shook her head. “It’s not like we won’t see each other every day. Why are you suddenly so sad?”

“Ahhh… That’s because—”

Xia Yuan immediately winked at Mei Fang and asked him to save her. Mei Fang immediately tried to smooth things over and explained, “Okay, okay, Yuanyuan just wants to have a good birthday. Don’t make it too hard for her.”

“You just dote on her so much that you just know to follow her wishes.”

Lin Youxi frowned and said, “No wonder Yuanyuan likes to stick close to you so much.”

Although she looked angry, it didn’t make people feel aggressive, and there was even a hint of anger in her expression.

After agreeing on some details of the birthday party, Xia Yuan was also very emotional.

“Hahaha, I feel like we’re going to become a family of three… just like when we were playing house when we were kids, mom, dad, and daughter…”

“It’s different. How is it the same?”

Lin Youxi shook her head and said, “Before, you played the mother and I played the daughter.”

“Okay Youxi, you want to say that it’s the other way around now, right?”

“You admitted it yourself.”

Upon seeing this, Xia Yuan immediately banged on the mirror in anger. Seeing Lin Youxi’s calm expression, Xia Yuan hummed and acted coquettishly towards Mei Fang:

“Afang, Afang! Help me pinch Youxi’s face and avenge me!”

“Ah Fang, do you want to listen to Yuanyuan or me? Go and help me pinch Yuanyuan.”

“Ah, please don’t make things difficult for me…”

“Useless Afang!” Xia Yuan in the mirror made a face at Mei Fang.

“That’s right.” Lin Youxi also nodded.

The tacit understanding between the two made Mei Fang a little annoyed. He reached into the mirror with one hand to pinch Xia Yuan’s face, and pinched Lin Youxi’s face with the other hand.

Xia Yuan was made to scream by Mei Fang, and Lin Youxi did not hesitate to bite Mei Fang’s hand directly, causing Mei Fang to scream in pain.

After much preparation and preparation, the day that Xia Yuan had booked for his birthday soon arrived.

Mei Fang and Lin Youxi went out early to pick up the cake they had ordered.

It is still a hot and humid summer day, but the cicadas’ chirping has decreased a lot and the streets are no longer so noisy.

Lin Youxi sat sideways in the back seat of Mei Fang’s car, leaning naturally against Mei Fang’s back, looking at the sparse flow of people on the street.

Suddenly, Lin Youxi poked Mei Fang’s waist, which forced Mei Fang to make an emergency brake, then stop the car and look back at Lin Youxi who was looking at him.

“Ah Fang, what birthday present did you prepare for Yuanyuan? Let me see.”

“Huh? Birthday gift?”

“You don’t even prepare a birthday present? You’re just as active in preparing for the birthday party as Yuanyuan.”

“When we boys celebrate our birthdays, we usually treat everyone to a good meal and drink. We don’t really prepare birthday gifts. We just give money and call him dad.”

Lin Youxi didn’t care about Mei Fang’s explanation, but stared at him.

“You really didn’t prepare a birthday present?”

“Really not—” Beads of sweat appeared on Mei Fang’s forehead.

“If you suddenly give out a birthday present, you know what the consequences will be, right?” Lin Youxi looked at Mei Fang coldly.

“Okay, okay! I have prepared a birthday present.” Mei Fang surrendered.

“I knew it……”

Lin Youxi reached out to Mei Fang and asked, “Let me see the birthday present you prepared.”

“Not now, I don’t even have it with me!”

“What exactly is it?” Lin Youxi asked.

“Won’t you know later on your birthday?”

Mei Fang thought about it, then changed the subject and asked, “Why are you so interested in my birthday present?”

“I’m afraid your gift is too expensive and too good, and it will outshine my birthday gift.”

Lin Youxi said in a gentle voice, “I don’t have much pocket money, so there aren’t many choices for gifts…”

“But as long as it’s from you, Yuanyuan will definitely like it.”

“She likes the one you gave her more.”

Lin Youxi’s words were full of jealousy, and Mei Fang just laughed it off after hearing it.

I got the ordered cake from the cake shop, it was the chocolate strawberry cake that Yuanyuan wanted.

The pink cream is dotted with colorful fruits, adding a dreamy color. The rich chocolate crust wraps the decorations on the cake, and the words “Happy Birthday” are written on it.

Xia Yuan on the other side of the mirror was extremely happy when he saw this. He hurriedly put on his birthday hat, shouted that he wanted to light candles and start making a wish.

“Wait a minute!”
