Becoming a life winner from infancy

"..."

Fang You stared at Lin Mengran with a look of utter incomprehension as she beamed at him.

"So, are you going to try out my suggestion or not?"

"Have you had a lot of boyfriends?" Fang You raised an eyebrow slightly.

"That's not important. What's important is that I'm super popular at school, with lots of fans and supporters. I know exactly what being a popular girl feels like," she said confidently.

"So you haven't had any," he remarked.

Lin Mengran bared her teeth in a grimace, "You little... I already told you that's not the point!"

"Fine, you don't need to worry about me and Nuo Nuo."

Fang You waved his hand dismissively, "This isn't the kind of topic we should be discussing at our age."

"Are you sure you don't need me to worry? I feel that although you two are close, it still seems to be just the sort of closeness between friends," she pointed out thoughtfully.

Lin Mengran rested her chin in her hands and pondered, "If you don't take this opportunity to escalate your feelings with her now, when she's snatched away by someone else later, you'll have nowhere to cry."

"Get back home now."

Fang You pushed Lin Mengran out of the neighborhood and said, "I'll send you the high school knowledge points later. I hope you'll at least cram some knowledge into your head before we meet next time."

Lin Mengran now found the situation very amusing.

These kids were becoming more interesting to her by the day.

It was just like following a novel.

Not only Nuo Nuo and You You, but the thoughts of the one called Ayu were also quite intriguing.

Although she appeared to be closer to Nuo Nuo at first glance, she seemed to harbor special feelings for You You and was very concerned about You You's friendships.

That was definitely not the tone of just friends; it was as if she considered herself part of this family. Experience tales with My Virtual Library Empire

However, to continue enjoying the drama, she first needed to improve her academic abilities. Otherwise, she wouldn't be able to teach Xia Nuo and the others as a teacher.

High school, huh...

High school?

Lin Mengran paused in confusion.

Wasn't I just supposed to learn middle school knowledge?

Lin Mengran didn't realize that she had a system task to complete, and worried that she wouldn't be able to teach with dedication, which was why she tried to get close to her.

Therefore, it was completely understandable that she would make such an ignorant and foolish move without knowing the depth of the bond between her and Nuo Nuo.

He wasn't going to hold a grudge against a child.

However.

A third party...

Fang You shook his head with a smile, utterly dismissive of Lin Mengran's comments.

Xia Nuo was an extremely important person to Fang You now, someone he had to protect like family.

At the same time, Fang You was also Xia Nuo's "best friend," without any competition.

He certainly didn't think there was room for a third person between him and Nuo Nuo...

Especially not a third man.

...

At this point, Fang You suddenly paused.

With these thoughts in mind, he returned to Xia Nuo's home and, before Luo Xianyu could initiate a conversation, he took the initiative to apologize to Xia Nuoluo.

"Sorry, Teacher Xiao Lin just isn't up to the task."

Fang You said, "I thought a high school student would at least be able to teach middle school knowledge, and since she and Nuo Nuo are relatives, it would be easier for her to teach. But it seems she doesn't even have a good grasp of the basics, so she definitely won't be able to teach us what we need for Zhendan."

"Ah?"

Luo Xianyu was about to grill Fang You on what had happened, but she was somewhat dumbfounded to hear him say that, "So what you mean is—"

"I'm planning on dismissing her."

Fang You said, "We'll find another tutor."

"That's too fast!" Luo Xianyu exclaimed in shock.

[Luo Xianyu feels you're being a bit too extreme, Emotional Energy +30]

"Oh, it's okay! I think studying with a high school student is pretty fun!" Xia Nuo offered her own view, "I think even though Teacher Xiao Lin's knowledge level is pretty bad now, we can promote mutual learning and improvement. After all, hiring other tutors before didn't have any real effect."

Xia Nuo mused, "If we study together with Teacher Xiao Lin, maybe her grades will gradually improve. And while teaching her, we can solidify our own knowledge—I think that could also be a teaching method in itself."

"Ayu, what do you think?"

"Hmm... I think we should give Teacher Xiao Lin another chance, otherwise it's going to be so awkward for Nuo Nuo when they meet in the future since they're relatives!"

"Ah? Ayu, you're actually thinking about interpersonal relations..."

Xia Nuo immediately showed a look of astonishment, "You've changed, Ayu!"

"I'm lazy, not stupid!"

Luo Xianyu put her hands on her hips, indignant, "I can score over 110 points in Chinese!"

The full score for the Chinese exam in ninth grade is 120 points, and Luo Xianyu's Chinese knowledge level was remarkable!

"Um... Ah, don't kill me with your heart-piercing words!"

Xia Nuo felt heartbroken since her own Chinese scores were only around seventy or eighty.

"Then... shall we give her another chance?"

"Sure, sure."

"I... I have no objections."

Watching Xia Nuo and Luo Xianyu convinced by his words, Fang You couldn't help but marvel at the wisdom of the ancients.

The skylight theory really was foolproof...

Fang You thought to himself, while unconsciously taking another glance at the smiling Xia Nuo.

...

However, Xia Nuo noticed this unintended scene.

"What's up, is there something on my face that you're staring at me like that?"

"Nope."

"Are you sure there's nothing?"

Xia Nuo curiously gazed at Fang You.

Then she turned to look at Ayu, "Ayu, do you see anything on my face?"

"There's nothing."

Luo Xianyu looked left and right, touching her face, but she didn't find anything amiss on Xia Nuo's face.
