The proactive and studious Fang You encouraged Xia Nuo and Luo Xianyu to teach him more dance moves.
"Is this one okay?"
"How about this one?"
"And this one!"
Although he was just copying the moves, let's not forget one thing.
That is, the talent "Paths through the Book Mountain" granted Fang You a powerful learning ability, allowing him to capture knowledge more easily.
Clearly, as long as he could grasp the essence of the moves and perform them consistently, Fang You could be said to have captured the relevant dance knowledge, and knowledge energy quickly accumulated.
Fang You gradually discovered the joy of exploring the unknown.
However, such pleasure ca at a cost.
Luo Xianyu was deeply shaken when she realized that Fang You easily mastered the dance moves that took her so long to learn.
Xian Yu simply lay on the yoga mat, pouting and grumbled:
"The skill that took Xian Yu so long to learn, Daddy learned in one try; what's the point of Xian Yu learning then!"
It seed that Xian Yu refused to be outdone.
At this mont, Fang You also realized he was dampening the children's enthusiasm and quickly patted Xian Yu on the back to comfort her:
"Don't be sad, Xian Yu. Only I am this amazing. No one else can do it."
"Really?" Luo Xianyu turned to look at Fang You.
"Really, I'd be a puppy if I lied." Fang You quickly raised his hand.
[You've learned how to deceive a girl, knowledge energy 10]
Right then, Xia Nuo wrapped her arms around Fang You and said to Luo Xianyu with a sway, "That's right, Xian Yu, you don't have to be too sad. You You might learn those difficult moves quickly, but he doesn't perform them very attractively, so don't be too heartbroken."
"...Where is it not good-looking?"
Fang You frowned and said, "My moves should be fairly standard; how could they not look good?"
"Well… the poses are definitely standard, but I always feel there's sothing stiff about them, a kind of strange feeling… like there's no soul."
Xia Nuo pondered, "Maybe you should watch do it again, and we can compare?"
"Then... maybe not."
Fang You's motivation was rely to capture knowledge by performing those embarrassing movents, so if you insisted that his movents were soulless, you had a point.
However, in contrast, Xian Yu noticed only her own impressive, swiftly grasped techniques, whereas Nuo Nuo could discern sothing deeper, perhaps showcasing her dance talent...
Fang You spent the afternoon at Uncle Xia's house, playing until the sun was almost setting when Aunt Lin, Nuo Nuo's mom Lin Yi, just returned from work.
"Hello, Aunt Lin."
"Aunt Lin."
"Oh, Xian Yu and You You are playing at ho..."
As Lin Yi changed her shoes, she smiled and greeted the two of them: "Would you like to have dinner at my place tonight? I bought roast chicken."
"I want to eat!"
Luo Xianyu quickly raised her hand, "Anyway, if Xian Yu goes ho, she'll just eat the takeout ordered by Mom, and Xian Yu doesn't want to eat takeout anymore."
Luo Xianyu's mom would be particularly busy during the sumr vacation and often co ho late.
"Then have dinner at my house, You You will you join us?"
At this mont, Xia Nuo also suddenly leaned towards You You and whispered to him.
"Co eat at my place, You You, and tonight I'll show you sothing pretty..."
"Oh my, what are you saying, why not tell Mommy too?"
Lin Yi said with a smile, "You can't be talking about that thing your dad bought you a while back—"
Xia Nuo quickly made a shushing gesture to interrupt Lin Yi's inquisition.
"Mom, Mommy, please don't say it out loud, You You doesn't know yet!"
"Alright, alright, Mom won't tell!"
Knowing her daughter's quirky mind, Lin Yi didn't press further but felt a bit more sympathy for soone.
The weather today was very hot.
Even though he had been busy outside all day.
But just thinking that he would soon be ho to see his gentle and beautiful wife, and his precious, adorable daughter, Xia Anyang felt his mood lift significantly.
This was what made life worth living.
A hardworking dad must be dazzling too!
And today, he'd heard so good news from that old dad's place.
His kid might be going to a martial arts class this sumr!
What did that an!
It ant that his own daughter would have more ti for father-daughter interactions!
Xia Anyang humd a light and relaxing tune as he made his way ho.
The mont he unlocked the door with his fingerprint and heard the noises coming from inside, he sensed sothing amiss.
...
!
Xia Anyang saw Fang You sitting at his own dining table, with his daughter and the neighbor's girl both close by his side, while his wife served him rice.
[Xia Anyang recalled that it had been a long ti since he last cursed in his mind, "You little punk!" Emotional Energy 50]
"Ah, daddy's back."
"Hello, Uncle Xia."
"Hmm..."
After greeting Xia Anyang, Fang You watched Lin Yi place a roasted chicken leg into his bowl and said to Xia Anyang:
"The kids were hungry, so I let them start eating."
Lin Yi said with a smile.
It's fine if kindergarten kids play and fuss around together, I can turn a blind eye to it.
But what's going on now.
Why are they this close in elentary school?
Xia Anyang was really tired.
He washed his hands and ca to the dining table, and although Fang You had beco quieter and more reserved than in the past, Xia Anyang still felt annoyed.
"Oh, You You... I heard you've taken an interest in learning martial arts for kids lately?" Xia Anyang said with a smile. "I heard it from your dad today."
Fang You nodded, "Yeah, I had a trial class today."
"This is the age when you're growing, and I think it's good for you to get more exercise. When are you starting?"
"Dad, You You hasn't decided whether to go yet, don't rush him."
"Ah... haven't decided yet."
[Xia Anyang really wished you would just spend the whole sumr in special classes, Emotional Energy 10]
"I think it's a good idea for you to go, you've been reading at the library all this ti, it's good to exercise more, be an energetic and healthy child..."
"I'm very energetic!"
Luo Xianyu said, "Today, he even learned to dance with Nuo Nuo and . He picked it up so quickly, my dad is super aweso!"
Upon hearing that, Xia Anyang frowned slightly, "Ah... Xianyu, you're still calling You You 'Dad'?"
"Yep."
Luo Xianyu nodded earnestly, "After all, I'm a daddy's girl."
Kids these days, with their odd phrases, they just co out with them so naturally.
But Xianyu is so cute, she's just a child, so I won't bla her...
At this mont, Lin Yi put a roasted chicken leg on Luo Xianyu's plate and casually asked:
"By the way, about dads... I heard from your mom that your dad is likely coming back on a scientific research ship this sumr, Xianyu knows, right?"
"Mhm, it has been ntioned," Luo Xianyu nodded, "He's coming back at the end of the month."
"I wonder what Xianyu's dad really looks like? I'm so curious."
Xia Nuo rested her chin in her hands, showing an expectant look.
"You've seen Xianyu's dad when you were little, don't talk as if he hasn't been back for years..."
While teasing Xia Nuo, Fang You peeled the crispy skin off the chicken leg, which Xia Nuo saw and imdiately excitedly lifted her chopsticks:
"Ah, You You, I want to eat that! I love the crispy part! Please give it to !"
"It was ant for you anyway."
Just as Fang You was about to place the chicken skin in Xia Nuo's bowl, she moved close to Fang You, mouth agape, a look of wanting to be fed on her face:
"Ah—"
[Xia Anyang's silence was deafening! Emotional Energy 100]
