Chapter 352: 281 Knowledge entered the brain (two in one)_2
Fang You was eager to try out the effects of the "Guidance" talent, so he invited Xia Nuo and Luo Xianyu to his home to study early on Saturday morning.
"Why are you in such a hurry to call us over..."
"Hmm... I haven't even had enough sleep."
Luo Xianyu yawned, looking sleepy and drowsy.
"You can't rest now, Yu!"
Fang You pinched Luo Xianyu's cheek, "Come on, listen to me carefully..."
Fang You tried again to explain the knowledge points that they were usually very weak in.
"I can't understand you when you explain it like this... It feels so hard to remember the mnemonic, just like a tongue twister, I can't remember it at all..."
Xia Nuo was complaining when suddenly she seemed to have an epiphany and her eyes widened involuntarily.
"What feeling?" Fang You watched Xia Nuo's reaction.
"Suddenly, it feels... like I understand!"
Xia Nuo bent her head again to study the study notes that Fang You had prepared for her, and then she snapped her fingers.
"So that's it, that's the real meaning behind Mendel's pea crossbreeding experiment!"
"Let's hear it, how's the mnemonic coming along?"
"Out of nothing comes the recessive, recessive genetics look at female disease, females are affected, males are not sex-linked. Out of something comes the dominant, dominant genetics look at male disease, males are affected, females are not sex-linked..."
"What about Y-linked inheritance?"
Xia Nuo's eyes rolled around.
"Father to son, son to grandson, the lineage never ends!"
Excellent, excellent.
"Speaking of inheritance, do kids really inherit some traits from their parents?"
"Of course, I'm as beautiful as my mom, and I also have a talent for fashion design, which I inherited from her,"
said Luo Xianyu.
"But I always feel a certain way."
Xia Nuo thought for a moment, "My personality is so lively and active, nothing like my dad or my mom. My dad is the dull kind of adult, and my mom is more gentle. I really don't know in what way I resemble them, but I do seem very similar to Uncle Fang."
"However, I think Nuo Nuo still looks a lot like her mother. Ah—"
Luo Xianyu suddenly realized something, immediately covering her mouth in surprise, her expression one of shock:
"Nuo Nuo, you couldn't possibly be the child of Aunt Lin and Uncle Fang!"
Luo Xianyu, who loved to read novels, would often imagine a lot of melodramatic yet classic plot twists.
"Don't talk nonsense."
Fang You knocked Luo Xianyu on the head, then explained, "My parents and Uncle Xia, Aunt Lin didn't know each other at all before we were born, so that couldn't have happened."
"Ah? Is that so?"
Xia Nuo's big eyes were filled with confusion, "Then how did we come to know each other, huh? You You, your parents must have told you."
"Haven't your parents told you?"
"I don't really remember, I think I asked my dad once, but it seemed like he was quite resistant, so I'm really curious... Do you know, tell me?"
"Hmm..."
Even though it wasn't a big deal, Fang You thought that this was Xia Nuo's family matter, and if Uncle Xia didn't want to tell, then of course he shouldn't disclose it either.
However, by this time, Xia Nuo had climbed onto Fang You, her eyes filled with a thirst for knowledge.
"You, You You! Do you know how our parents met? Quick, tell me!"
"Well, it's better to ask your mom and dad about this. If they haven't said, I shouldn't be explaining the situation either."
"You can just whisper it to me, I promise I'll keep it a secret."
At this moment, Luo Xianyu also covered her ears, "Yu is deaf now, Yu can't hear anything—"
You little girl, claiming to hear nothing, yet your ears are wide open, you just want the gossip, don't you!
Seeing Fang You weren't going to talk, Xia Nuo became slightly unhappy, lying in Fang You's arms, drawing circles on his chest.
"We're best friends, don't you trust me..."
Her tone was somewhat aggrieved, the low feeling like that of a wounded little animal.
The scent of her shampoo was pleasant, gently brushing against Fang You with the breeze.
Then Xia Nuo looked up, continuing to gaze into Fang You's eyes.
"Speaking of which, you haven't been studying with us lately, don't you feel a bit guilty?"
"Let's stick to the books for now."
Fang You said, "Take advantage of the feeling while you're in the zone for studying."
"Yay, You You said once he's done studying, he'll tell us the answers!"
"Yay!"
Luo Xianyu also joined in the cheering.
Over the course of the morning, Fang You spent over 1100 points of Knowledge Energy, clearing up most of the problems in several subjects that the two kids had always been confused about. There were just some subjective type problems such as Nuo Nuo's Chinese reading comprehension, which the talent "Expert Guidance" seemed unable to help with.
But this was already very good. If the scores could be boosted by one level, the chance of getting into Zhendan would greatly increase.
Having learned a lot from Fang You, Xia Nuo and Luo Xianyu couldn't forget the interesting topic that had come up earlier. After finally getting through the math problems, Xia Nuo and Luo Xianyu began to hum and haw once more in front of Fang You.
"Okay, can you tell us now? You You... You You..."
Xia Nuo swung Fang You's arm back and forth.
"The thing about you making me cry last time, I haven't completely forgiven you yet! I'm still... 30 percent away from forgiving you!"
Luo Xianyu tried to tempt Fang You with a playful tone, "But if you tell us this secret, then, I'll like you a hundred percent!"
"Uh, about that—"
Pop.
At that moment, the door to Fang You's bedroom suddenly opened; the one who opened it was Chen Xuan.
"Oh, you're all at home, I was wondering why it was so lively today..."
Chen Xuan glanced at Xia Nuo sitting on Fang You's lap and Luo Xianyu hanging on his arm, with a knowing smile.
[Chen Xuan felt proud of her son, Emotional Energy +1]
As children who had grown up together, the close interactions between Xia Nuo, Luo Xianyu, and Fang You were no longer strange in the eyes of their mother, Chen Xuan—not just because she was Fang You's mother, but also because she had watched these children grow up from a young age, feeling as if they were her own.
The lively Nuo Nuo was, of course, the most cherished future daughter-in-law, and the cute and naive Yu was at least like a little daughter. Yu's family often wasn't home, so she frequently had meals at Xia Nuo and Fang You's place, and the parents were used to it.
With these two children always around to take care of things, why would Chen Xuan need to have another child?
It's not like Fang Guanghui was having children, what did he know about the pain of childbirth.
"It's time for lunch, Nuo Nuo, Yu, why don't you eat at our place today?"
"Aunt Xuan! There's something I want to ask you!"
Xia Nuo immediately jumped down from Fang You's embrace and ran over to Chen Xuan, leaning in to whisper in her ear.
Whisper whisper, whisper whisper...
After hearing Xia Nuo's words, Chen Xuan's face showed a knowing smile.
"Ah, haven't your parents told you about it... I think there's nothing wrong with it."
Chen Xuan seemed to realize something, "Right, are you perhaps...?"
Chen Xuan began to whisper back and forth with Xia Nuo, whisper whisper.
Luo Xianyu also leaned in to listen to their whispering; they didn't shy away, instead pulling Luo Xianyu into their murmured conversation.
This situation made Fang You seem like he was left out.
But perhaps that was okay...
"Yes, I'm even wondering if I'm Uncle Fang's daughter!"
After hearing Chen Xuan's words, Xia Nuo crossed her arms and showed a puzzled face, "So, is that the case, or isn't it?"
"We'll talk about this in detail during dinner."
Chen Xuan teased: "Okay, you must have been studying all morning, right? You must be tired. Go play some games in the study, the smitch3 console your dad bought hasn't been used much; you can go play with it."
Xia Nuo immediately rolled up her sleeves and shook her head, "No, today I want to help Aunt Xuan cook!"
Lou Xianyu didn't want to be outdone, "I can help too!"
"Cooking involves using knives, are you scared?"
"I'm not scared!" Xia Nuo declared proudly.
"I am!" Luo Xianyu admitted straightforwardly.
"Then, Yu, come help me pick the cabbage hearts, and Nuo Nuo, you can help me peel." Explore more at My Virtual Library Empire
"Okay, okay!"
Xia Nuo said, while she took Chen Xuan's hand, and turned back to stick her tongue out at Fang You, with a smug expression that said someone else would tell me if you wouldn't.
...
This kid.
Facing Xia Nuo's act, Fang You could only manage a helpless, faint smile.
Her mischief was not enough to make Fang You activate "Forced Calm" to settle his emotions.
Maybe later he would gently instill the knowledge of being polite into her brain with "Expert Guidance".
