My childhood sweetheart, who was reborn with me, ended up as a loser.

Chapter 69 It's Not Clean

After successfully handing over the giant soft-shelled turtle, Xu Qingfan received a ten-yuan reward from his grandfather, which he used to buy them soft drinks later.

Although the wealthy Aunt Zhang was not present, their team still had a little rich girl named Wan Ning, so they had no shortage of activity funds. However, since it was her grandfather's good intention, Xu Qingfan happily accepted it.

"Yay, thank you Grandpa!"

"Yay!"

"Thank you, Grandpa!"

Lin Wanning, Xiao Ruanwen, and Wu Lingyu acted as his parrots, making Yao Shulun beam with joy. They all regretted not giving her enough money earlier and should have given her fifty yuan this time.

The five people fetched water from the courtyard gate to wash the mud off their feet, and then went back down to play in the fishpond.

Don't ask what the point of washing your feet is; you just want to wash them, just like how many people like to wash their hands after touching anything while cooking, which is actually quite illogical.

"We won't be picking snails anymore. This time, we'll have a fish-catching competition. Whoever catches the biggest fish first wins!" Xu Qingfan said, pointing to the large grass carp thrashing about in the muddy water.

"Let's compete! We're sure to win this time!" Xiao Ruanwen was very confident. There were three of them, giving them a numerical advantage.

"With Brother Qingfan here, Xiaofan Ningning will definitely win!" Lin Wanning still remembered their team name from kindergarten, but unfortunately, they stopped having team competitions after starting elementary school.

"Listen to me first. The mud in the middle is very deep; none of us are allowed to go across!"

"How are you going to catch fish? I'm a great swimmer, I'm not afraid!"

"Even if I'm not afraid, it doesn't matter. I'm the referee, and if I say no, then no!"

Xu Qingfan tapped Ruan Wen on the head. "There are two large landing nets here, and a few sticks. Everyone should use their own skills to drive the fish to the shallows and then catch them with the landing nets."

"Any other questions?"

"Yes!" Xiao Ruanwen raised her hand.

"Why do you ask so many questions? Ask already!"

"What is the penalty for losing this round?"

"Punishment... how about doing laundry later?"

"Okay, okay, we'll do the dishes, Xiaofan and Wanning will do the laundry, and Xiaoxiao and Xiaoyu, come over and we'll discuss a plan!"

While they were still discussing their strategy, Xu Qingfan grabbed a net, took Wan Ning by the hand, and headed straight for the fish.

"What is Ningning going to do, Brother Qingfan?"

"Wan Ning was the hero just now, now it's my turn to be the hero! Wan Ning, you can just cheer me on from the sidelines!"

"Go, Qingfan!"

Lin Wanning deliberately jumped into a puddle as he passed by, splashing mud all over their faces.

Xu Qingfan wiped the mud off his face and looked at her helplessly. Lin Wanning shrugged and shrank her neck, blinking her big eyes and acting cute.

What could Xu Qingfan do? Of course, he forgave her. "This water is dirty, Wan Ning, be careful not to get it in your mouth."

"Mmm, good luck, Qingfan-gege~" Lin Wanning originally wanted to give a "wooden horse~" but then remembered that Qingfan-gege's face had just been covered in dirty water, so she decided against it.

Brother Qingfan said not to get muddy water in her mouth, and Ningning is very obedient!

Xu Qingfan nuzzled her with his head, then picked up the net and began to fight the giant fish.

After discovering that Xu Qingfan had no sense of martial ethics, Xiao Ruanwen abandoned her plot and quickly entered the battlefield with her net.

Anyone who has watched Gang Ge's videos knows that big fish are very difficult to catch in the water. Even a big guy like Gang Ge has a hard time locking up a fish that weighs more than ten kilograms.

So Xu Qingfan soon witnessed a famous scene in Ruan Wen's life.

"Hahaha! I caught it! I caught it!"

"Wow! This fish is so strong!"

Xiao Ruanwen's joy lasted less than three seconds before she was slid through the mud by a large fish, leaving a long speed bump in the fishpond.

With a nimble flip, the big fish quickly leaped out of her open landing net and returned to the deep water.

"Waaah! It got away!!" Xiao Ruanwen, who had just gotten up, hadn't even had time to wipe her face clean before she watched helplessly as the big fish escaped.

That's not the main point. The main point is that Xu Qingfan, that loser, had to imitate him from the sidelines, saying, "I caught it! I caught it!"

"Wow, this fish is so strong!"

Xiao Ruanwen was covered in mud from head to toe; she had nothing left to lose.

"You brat, Xiao Fan!"

"Damn it! Ruan Wen, I was wrong, don't use a new account!!"

"What I hate most is apologizing afterward, killing—"

Lin Wanning, Xia Xiaoxiao, and Wu Lingyu stood still, their heads resembling sunflowers, following the direction the two were running.

Xu Qingfan and Xiao Ruanwen ran three laps around the fishpond. He quickly realized that, probably because Ruanwen's clothes were "carrying" weight, she couldn't keep up with his car exhaust fumes at all.

It's like the police catching thieves in Kingsoft Typing Tutorial; they all got caught in the trap.

"Garlic Bird, Garlic Bird, Ruan Wen, look on the bright side. You got the clothes dirty, but I'll still have to wash them, so let's not kill you, okay?"

Xu Qingfan stood three meters away from her and patiently guided her.

"I won't kill you if you come here," Xiao Ruanwen said breathlessly, beckoning to him.

"Alright, it's settled then. You're a liar!" Xu Qingfan took a step forward, but after only a couple of steps, his expression changed completely. "Got it! Got it! Ah, this fish is so strong!"

"You stinky, little brat, Fan!"

"I'll fight you to the death!!"

Xu Qingfan is really wicked and bullies people too much!

However, as the saying goes, "extreme joy begets sorrow." Overly smug, Xu Qingfan got stuck in the mud. Due to inertia, he continued running forward and ended up falling face-first into the mud.

"Goose, goose, goose!"

"Ha ha ha ha!"

Before Xu Qingfan could even get up, a piercing laugh reached his ears.

Are you kidding me? Why does it sound like Wan Ning's laughter?

"Brother Qingfan, are you alright?" Lin Wanning ran over with a smile and helped him up, while Wu Lingyu also ran over to lend a hand.

The two, who were already struggling to hold back, instantly spat in Xu Qingfan's face when they saw his face, which was as black as mud.

"puff!"

"Hahaha!"

Xiao Ruanwen and Xia Xiaoxiao arrived quickly. One of them pointed at him and burst into laughter, while the other, since things had already come to this, simply lay down on the ground and clapped her hands, maximizing her mockery.

"Hehehe... Xiao Fan is killing me! Doesn't he look like the rascal snake from The Adventures of the Little Carp?!"

"Brother Fan, are you alright? Do you need me to help you back to wash up?"

In this critical moment, Xiaoyu is still the most reliable. Xu Qingfan's eyes were covered in mud and he couldn't open them for the time being, so he didn't know what Lin Wanning was doing.

"Brother Qingfan, Brother Qingfan, Brother Qingfan!"

Lin Wanning's voice suddenly came from not far away. It turned out that while everyone was watching the excitement of Brother Qingfan, she accidentally discovered that the fish had swum to the shallow water area. She took the landing net and sneaked closer, and then caught the fish in one shot!

After catching the fish, she immediately dragged the net outwards, and the big fish was pulled ashore before it could even react.

"Xiaoyu, what does Wanning want with me?"

"Brother Fan, Wan Ning caught a big fish! Wan Ning is amazing!"

"Gurgle, gurgle?"

"Gurgle, gurgle!"

Although Xu Qingfan couldn't open his eyes, it didn't affect the bond between him and Wan Ning at all.

"Ha ha ha ha!"

The two men's signature villainous laughs rang out simultaneously in the fishpond.
