Damn it, I'm surrounded by childhood sweethearts

"I command number four and six..." Xu Qingfan paused for a moment, scanning the five girls present, heightening the atmosphere sufficiently before continuing, "Number four and six will fight right here, and the first one to fall will be considered the loser."

"What?"

Including Zhang Yiyi, who was usually the most composed, all five girls stretched their necks, their faces a picture of astonishment and disbelief.

Clearly, all five were thunderstruck by Xu Qingfan's bizarre command.

"Fighting isn't good..." Wu Lingyu hesitated as she spoke.

"What are you playing at, Xu Qingfan?" Xia Xiaoxiao, whose card number was six, responded incredulously after recovering from her initial shock.

Only Xiao Ruawen, regaining her composure, spoke eagerly, "It's just wrestling, after all, we can do it on Yu's bed, we definitely won't get hurt!"

Xia Xiaoxiao gave her well-meaning but ineffectual best friend a glare, but the thought of possibly facing Xu Qingfan made her reveal her card, "I am number six, who wants to fight me?"

As the girl spoke, she exuded the aura of a grandmaster ready to take on ten opponents.

Wu Lingyu, Xiao Ruawen, and Zhang Yiyi subsequently revealed their cards, none were number four.

Only Lin Wanning stared blankly at her card in hand, a club four.

Xu Qingfan, sitting right behind the girl, immediately saw her card and couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"Haha... Wanning has club four, Xiaoxiao vs Wanning!" Ignoring the girl's daze, he flipped her card over cheerfully.

Xia Xiaoxiao's initially lackluster expression was instantly replaced with eagerness, her thoughts at that moment known only to her.

[Let you cheat, now punishment is coming!]

Lin Wanning looked at Xia Xiaoxiao, tilted her head slightly, and blinked confusedly, "Can I just surrender and lose?"

"No way!"

Xia Xiaoxiao, Xu Qingfan, and Xiao Ruawen spoke in unison, particularly Xia Xiaoxiao, who was already warming up for the fight.

"Okay then~" She pouted in feigned grievance and got up from Xu Qingfan's lap.

Xia Xiaoxiao felt a slight alleviation in her gloom seeing her finally move away from Xu Qingfan's thigh.

However, Zhang Yiyi's continued presence there irritated her again.

[Just wait, I'll smack Lin Wanning's butt hard, let you guys cheat!]

[Brother Fan, seriously, how can I possibly not beat Xiaoxiao!]

The competitors with different thoughts quickly took their positions, and Xiao Ruawen also climbed to the center of the bed to act as the referee.

"I'll count three, two, one, then the match starts. If you can't get up within ten seconds after falling, you lose!" She mimicked a referee she'd seen on TV, stretching out her right hand, "Three, two, one, start!"

As she uttered the final "start," her right hand chopped downwards vigorously, and she as nimbly leaped down from the bed.

"Go Wanning!" Zhang Yiyi unequivocally cheered for her teammate.

"Go Xiaoxiao!" As a member of the Xiaoxiao camp, Xiao Ruawen also voiced her support.

"Just be careful not to get hurt!" Naturally, this was Wu Lingyu's concern.

"Fight, fight, fight!" As for Xu Qingfan, he loved watching women fight!

Wu Lingyu's bed, measuring 1.8 meters, now served as the battleground for the two, standing opposite each other, with Lin Wanning adopting a standard military boxing stance, and Xia Xiaoxiao, expressionless, had her hands clasped behind her back, exuding the aura of a grandmaster.

After a prolonged standoff, Lin Wanning's clenched fists began to tremble, yet Xia Xiaoxiao showed no sign of attacking.

"Ha!" Lin Wanning cutely burst out, taking the lead with her short legs in a charge.

"Xia Xiaoxiao, meet your doom~" But her movements were as slow as a snail, even the speed of her threat was elongated extremely.

Like Sister Bao in the Luotian Grand Sacrifice duel, Lin Wanning threw her punch in slow motion, aiming directly at Xia Xiaoxiao's delicate side face.

The four bystanders below were all stunned, only to see Xia Xiaoxiao move, her demeanor calm as she stretched out her index finger, poking it straight onto Lin Wanning's forehead.

The next second, she sidestepped Lin Wanning's punch, turning her index finger into a whole palm and gently pushed, after which Lin Wanning very cooperatively crashed onto the bed.

"Ah~ It's the Yang Finger from Dali, I accept my defeat graciously..." She mimicked the death throes from a Zhou Xingchi movie, extravagantly pretending to spurt blood into the void.

Lin Wanning thought wisely, with her skinny arms and legs, she would never beat Xiao Xiao, so it was better to surrender gracefully and play the role of France, so she could immediately go back and sit on Brother Fan's lap!

[Hee hee~ I knew I was brilliantly clever!]

However.

Xia Xiaoxiao wasn't one to treat prisoners of war kindly; she fully embraced the spirit of striking while the iron was hot.

Lin Wanning's blood instantly stopped "spraying" because the next second, Xia Xiaoxiao was already pressing down on her in an airplane-style seating.

"I uh~"

"Evil temptress, meet your doom!" Xia Xiaoxiao covered her mouth with one hand while inexorably slapping the girl's buttocks with the other.

Lin Wanning's eyes widened instantly in pain—Xia Xiaoxiao was really hitting her!!

"Mmm mmm~" She struggled forcefully, but her lack of physical strength rendered her efforts useless.

For a moment, everyone was shocked by the scene, even Xiao Ruawen, acting as referee, forgot to time them.

Fortunately, Xia Xiaoxiao hadn't completely turned to the dark side; after slapping her buttocks over ten times, she calmly let go of the suppressed Lin Wanning.

"I won." She dusted off her hands, returning casually to her original spot from the game.

"Ah... right, right, Xiao Xiao wins, I declare Xiao Xiao the winner," Xiao Ruawen, snapping out of her daze, hurriedly announced.

"Wuu~" Lin Wanning's cheeks reddened, rubbing her butt as she got up and sat back on Xu Qingfan's lap.

Actually, the butt slapping wasn't that painful, as it was done over clothes, and her buttocks were naturally soft and fleshy, providing some cushioning.

But what made her embarrassed to speak was that, apart from the pain of being hit, there was also a strange feeling involved.

"Did getting your butt smacked hurt?" As the instigator, Xu Qingfan now played the role of the good guy, rubbing Lin Wanning's head to comfort her.

[Xiao Xiao must be jealous that I can sit on Brother Qing Fan's lap and play games, intentionally bullying me as retaliation!]

Thinking of how she was still sitting on Brother Fan's lap, the aggrieved expression on her face instantly dissipated into nothing.

Lin Wanning shook her head, leaned back, and smilingly said, "Hee hee~ It doesn't hurt anymore."

Xia Xiaoxiao watched their interaction, her mood incredibly gloomy as she thought:

[If only I hadn't held back just now!]

Spurred by a sudden insight, Xu Qingfan shivered, just about to suggest continuing the next round when suddenly the bedroom door was pushed open.

"You all are playing..."

Seeing her daughter and Lin Wanning both sitting on Xu Qingfan's lap, Zhang Chunxue's intended words stuck in her throat.
