Becoming a life winner from infancy

Fang You sat in Fang Guanghui's Porsche and arrived at the location Meng Qing had shared.

Although Meng Qing called the restaurant she was in an izakaya, its name was that of a typical cherry blossom-themed eatery.

The restaurant specialized in cherry blossom-style grilled bird dishes, with main offerings like beef bowls, grilled bird skewers, sushi, and the like, while serious drinkers only showed up in the latter half of the night shift.

"You You, where's your coach, do you want Daddy to take you inside?"

"No need, Dad, you can head back. My classmates from the martial arts school are all there, it's kind of embarrassing."

Fang You lied through his teeth without batting an eye.

"Alright then."

Fang Guanghui also knew that his son usually maintained the persona of a lone wolf, independent and aloof. Having his friends see him in an intimate interaction with his father would indeed make his son uncomfortable.

Although I, Fang Guanghui, can't say something as cringe-worthy as Xia Anyang about becoming the greatest dad in the world, I must ensure that my son continues to be great!

So I just need to follow my son's lead!

After all, it's my genes; his greatness equals my greatness!

Fang Guanghui knew from years of child-rearing experience that as long as the children excel, any method parents use to interact with them becomes a parenting lesson for other parents, even meriting case studies for exhaustive analysis. Fang Guanghui himself didn't realize he could be so influential.

But only Fang Guanghui knew the truth in his heart, he believed that a child's success had nothing to do with parents' postnatal education.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

It all depended on You You's own efforts!

We parents just need to find ways to create opportunities and support them quietly.

"Then I'm leaving, come back early after you eat, and have your coach drop you off… or Mom will nag."

"Okay, don't rubberneck while you drive."

After saying farewell to his son, Fang Guanghui got into his car. As he passed by a food street, Fang Guanghui suddenly caught a whiff of something.

Delicious!

Maybe I'll pick up some duck necks for the wife to eat on the way…

Eating it with crayfish would be super joyful!

Fang Guanghui forgot Fang You's advice and started looking around as he drove!

After saying goodbye to his dad, Fang You lifted the curtain of the izakaya and entered. The waiter, seeing that he was a kid, didn't come to ask; probably assuming he was there to find his parents.

There were not many people sitting in the hundred-ish square foot room, and without needing to use his Breath Perception, Fang You found Meng Qing, who sat by the window, leaning on her elbow, gazing at the night view outside.

Such an eye-catching package…

Her cheeks had a slightly tipsy look, and when she heard Fang You calling, she immediately waved at him.

"You, You You, you're here… heh heh… hic!"

Meng Qing seemed groggy, a hazy look of drunkenness about her, which took Fang You by surprise.

"How much did you drink to be this intoxicated? Wasn't it just Calpis you had…"

Fang You checked the menu Meng Qing had ordered from.

Ah, it was indeed just Calpis—

But this was a cocktail drink.

Calpis was originally just a lactic acid drink, but many izakayas like to use it to make a sparkling wine, creating some low-alcohol mixed drinks, so many people start with these kinds of low-proof Calpis-based mixed drinks when they challenge drinking at an izakaya.

"Come… the menu's here, You You, order whatever you want to eat, Meng Qing sister is treating you today."

Meng Qing handed the ordering tablet to Fang You, but he didn't rush to order. Instead, he earnestly said to Meng Qing:

"Do you have any idea how dangerous it is for a girl to be out here alone?"

"?"

[Sitting in the next seat, Li Donghai thought it was really strange to hear these words coming from a child like you; Emotional Energy +10]

Perhaps it was because she had drunk a little, but Meng Qing seemed to be in a slight mood upon hearing Fang You's words:

"But... I'm already 22 years old and I'm the head of the martial arts school. I'm, I'm super brave, okay! Let me show you my muscles... Come on..."

As Meng Qing spoke, she tried to show Fang You her shoulder muscles, but since she was wearing an off-the-shoulder dress, she could only slip down the straps. Fang You quickly grabbed her arm to stop her.

"Hey... you've had too much to drink, don't go crazy."

"I, I am not going crazy... An 8-year-old kid like you can't subdue me... Watch how formidable I am!"

Meng Qing tried with all her might to free herself from Fang You's grasp, but of course, her efforts were in vain against the extraordinary wrist strength of Emperor Youyou.

"Ow, ow... you're hurting me, boo hoo..."

After struggling for a bit, Meng Qing gave up and lay her head on the table, whining.

This apprentice is more troublesome than a child!

What a handful...

Fortunately, he was still a child, so even when the adult next to him started crying and drew curious glances from everyone, they didn't suspect it was him who made her cry.

There was still some strength in his demeanor.

However, whenever he was compared to others, Fang You couldn't help but remember all the good things about Nuo Nuo.

Honestly, despite having lived two lives, Fang You's innate personality made him not very sociable. He wasn't very adept at dealing with social niceties and always seemed a bit distant from others. The friends around him were also those he had developed over a long period.

Of course, without Nuo Nuo taking the initiative to introduce him, he'd probably have even fewer friends...

But he needed to grow up, and making friends couldn't always depend on Nuo Nuo, right!

It was time for Emperor Youyou to grow up as well!

Fang You thought for a moment and, recalling the way Xia Nuo would comfort someone who got hurt by his strikes, he began to imitate her and gently patted Meng Qing on the head.

Meng Qing's hair was very smooth and soft to touch, quite comfortable, except it felt a bit hot on the scalp, probably because she was a little tipsy and emotionally agitated.

There, there...

At this moment, Meng Qing seemed to sober up a bit, then from burying her head she shifted to rest on her arms, staring at the meal in front of her with slightly reddened eyes.

"But honestly, I know that I... I'm not formidable at all, I'm actually very weak... You and Nuo Nuo are really strong, truly talented kids in the martial arts."

"But neither Nuo Nuo nor I have won a gold medal at the children's martial arts competition yet, and you have."

Although Fang You couldn't bring himself to comfort with lies, he could encourage with the truth.

"That competition was all for show, not a real fight. Taekwondo is pretty much suited for demonstrations, and since I looked cute, that's why I was able to win that championship. Just like you said, I only know some fancy moves, and I was subdued by you in three moves, nowhere good enough to be on stage..."

...

Tsk.

After listening to Meng Qing's lament, Fang You's tone turned decidedly colder.

"Do you really... think your skills are only that limited?"

"Or is that what your sister thinks of you?"

[Meng Qing's sore spot has been hit! She is extremely nervous right now!]
