Becoming a life winner from infancy

Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis is a rare, progressive neurodegenerative disease that primarily affects motor neurons in the body, which are responsible for controlling muscle activity.

As these neurons gradually die or lose function, the brain and spinal cord can't send the necessary signals to muscles, leading to the muscles getting weaker and atrophying. Simply put, it's a gradual muscle wasting disease, which is what Stephen Hawking had.

Although this era is rapidly developing, there still hasn't been a breakthrough in medical technology for ALS. Fortunately, Xia Anyang's substantial wealth can support his mother-in-law, but she has to be in Mei City for convalescence, confined to the hospital to slow the progression of the disease.

No matter how busy they are, every week Xia Nuo and her parents make time to accompany Grandma for walks and chats, sharing recent amusing events, and Fang You occasionally joins them to visit Xia Nuo's grandmother.

Fang You doesn't have a talent in medicine, so he can only try to see if he could share some physical enhancements with Grandma through the ability "In the Name of the Father," but it's not something that can be counted on, only left to fate.

After Grandma left Lin Mu Village, the villagers were the ones taking care of her house, with Brother Dong and Hong Ge always providing for Lin Mengran's family.

"Alright, we've talked enough, it's time for your lesson, we can't just chat all the time."

"Let's take a tour of my room first!"

Xia Nuo, leading Lin Mengran on a tour of her home's rooms, elicited shock from Lin Mengran akin to Liu Lao Lao entering the Grand View Garden: "What a princess room! You really are a young lady... with so many cute knick-knacks, it's like every girl's dream room. Ah, what are these rocket and airplane models? Did You You put them in your room?"

"I like them myself!"

Xia Nuo said, "When I was little, my dream was to become the captain of a space battleship. But now that I've grown up, I know that's very far-fetched, so I've set a more attainable goal to become an astronaut."

"Ah."

Lin Mengran found it hard to understand; you're the young lady in a novel, a stroke of luck many can't even hope for in multiple lifetimes, and instead of enjoying life, you want to be a spaceman.

Ah, the upbringing and values of the rich must be different...

The pleasures of the wealthy are just so distinct.

As she said this, Lin Mengran picked up her bag.

"So are we going to start tutoring here?"

"Ah, there's no place to sit here, let's study and do homework in my activity room," Xia Nuo said.

"Sit, no place to sit?"

A 40-sqm open-plan room, and there's even an exclusive activity room?

Damn, what the heck!

Lin Mengran recalled dancing happily in the mud pits as a child and felt an overwhelming sense of disparity in comparison.

Of course, what she didn't anticipate was that the moment the "activity room" door opened, her sense of disparity would reach its pinnacle: Enjoy more content from My Virtual Library Empire

"Whoa, holy shit! Oh, sorry... the soundproofing here is incredible, this... this is a music room, right?"

"Right, my dad set this up himself, initially for my piano and dance practice, but now it's my activity room," Xia Nuo said.

"Then, does that mean! Your cousin-in-law still pursues his music dream?"

"Hmm... Dad probably hasn't touched a guitar in many years," Xia Nuo said, "but he used to tell me a lot about his band when he was younger."

Thud!

Lin Mengran suddenly knelt on the ground.

Because she saw a purple electric guitar displayed in a glass cabinet on the shelf next door.

The reverence she felt was akin to a saint beholding a holy relic.

"This, this must be the electric guitar cousin-in-law used when rocking out with his band! It could already be considered a cultural relic, my God..."

Xia Nuo was somewhat puzzled by Lin Mengran's behavior and asked Fang You:

"You You, what is Teacher Xiao Lin doing?"

"Teacher Xiao Lin is into music."

"Musicians are like that, sometimes they go off the deep end. Some show it outwardly, while others are crazy on the inside."

The merciless Fang You AOE'd many with a single breath, and Xia Anyang, in the distance, couldn't help but sneeze.

At that moment, Luo Xianyu, who had been pouting, directly voiced her discontent while tugging at Fang You's arm:

"You You, you, look at her! How can she do this."

Luo Xianyu was anxious, "She came and didn't teach us any lessons, isn't our money wasted?"

"Getting used to the environment on the first day is pretty normal, Ayu," Xia Nuo consoled Luo Xianyu, "sharpening the ax won't delay the work of cutting wood, it won't affect our learning."

After sighing for a long while, Lin Mengran finally snapped out of it and, scratching her head, apologized to Xia Nuo:

"Alright, alright... I'm really sorry, I've just never seen so many cool things before and got a bit carried away. Okay then... without further ado, let's start the lesson!"

"Teacher Xiao Lin, are you really able to teach us?"

Luo Xianyu, with her hands on her hips, "We are very smart kids, you know."

Lin Mengran wiped her nose, "Your Teacher Xiao Lin was a top student at Mei City No. 3 High, you know!"

...

Mei City No. 3 High seems like just an ordinary high school, are they really thinking our kids don't understand?

"So Nuo Nuo, what are you studying right now?"

Lin Mengran asked with a smile.

"We've already finished learning the required knowledge and have started reviewing it this year."
