Where on earth do kids your age learn such flirtatious talk?
Fang You didn't give Xia Nuo the opportunity to continue behaving willfully on him; before his powerless adolescent body began to react, he directly picked her up off him.
Then, Fang You wrote two big characters on the notebook on the table—
[Go to school!!!]
Xia Nuo didn't feel any remorse for the indignation Fang You expressed with exclamation points; she directly lay down on Fang You's bed.
She sprawled across Fang You's bed, burying her face in his pillow, her little feet swinging as she curiously watched Fang You, wondering what he was going to do next.
She's being rebellious, so rebellious!
In the past she was a well-behaved child who would do whatever I said, but now why is she so disobedient!
Xia Anyang, you really need to reflect on how you've raised your daughter!
Xia Nuo's rebellious behavior caused Fang You to experience a strong emotional turbulence.
Indeed, having soone you care about makes it harder to maintain a calm mindset when addressing problems.
"Alright, I'll stop teasing you,"
Xia Nuo then began to explain the reason for her actions: "Aunt Xuan went to work; Uncle Fang hasn't returned from the countryside yet. I thought there was no one to look after you at ho, so I told Mom I wanted to co and take care of you. I'll catch up on missed schoolwork."
At this ti, Xia Nuo also got up from the bed and sat on the edge of Fang You's bed, her feet swinging, and her tone beca softer.
"From the ti I was little, each ti I was sick you always took care of . It's so rare to see you sick; I really wanted to be with you. We are best friends; I can't always be the one being looked after by you, that wouldn't make a good friend, would it?"
Xia Nuo propped her chin in her hands and thought, "That way, it would seem more like a sibling relationship… and I'd be a useless little sister who can only rely on her big brother, which I definitely don't want."
So those were her considerations...
Although her thoughtfulness was indeed touching.
Tsk…
But now my plan is ruined!
At school, Fang You still had other things to help cover up, but at ho, the situation beca one of being alone with Nuo Nuo.
As a result, the chances of completing his mission skyrocketed—in the wrong direction. Stay connected with My Virtual Library Empire
Fang You took a deep breath, then continued to type and ask Xia Nuo:
[I know you're worried about , but my toothache isn't that serious, it's almost fully recovered.]
Xia Nuo was clearly unsatisfied with Fang You's response:
"If you were really fine, you wouldn't just be typing to . Hm… Why don't you call out 'Nuo Nuo' for to hear? If you do that, then I'll believe you're better."
After saying this, Xia Nuo put her ear towards Fang You, eager to hear him call out her na.
Hey...
Has this kid already sensed sothing, with such sharp intuition?
Fang You couldn't bring himself to shout.
"See, I knew it!"
Xia Nuo imdiately sat in Fang You's lap, swaying back and forth as she stared at him for a while, and quickly looked away—but then she straightened Fang You's gaze, looking intently at him as she suddenly started to grope him.
The two of them frolicked in front of the desk for a while, disturbing the desk to the point it made noises, even the wall clock started swaying.
Then Xia Nuo changed tactics with a smile, patted his shoulder, "You go freshen up. Aunt Xuan prepared breakfast before she left; go wash up, and I'll help heat up the breakfast, okay, go on!"
She really was planning to take care of him.
After freshening up, Fang You and Xia Nuo ate breakfast together. After eating, Xia Nuo took the initiative to wash the dishes. Fang You, having never seen Xia Nuo wash dishes before and worried she might break them, watched her carefully as she worked.
It turned out that Xia Nuo really didn't do household chores often at ho; her dishwashing was a bit rough, and as Fang You watched, he couldn't bear to watch anymore and started to guide her.
The two communicated with looks as if performing a silent movie, a continuous exchange of glances.
Though Fang You couldn't speak, he still reacted with nods, head shakes, and frowns.
Sotis Xia Nuo intentionally said sothing wrong to irritate Fang You, then she'd stick out her tongue and giggle.
"All done, all done! Dry your hands—"
Xia Nuo wiped her hands off specifically on Fang You's clothes. Fang You grabbed her hand and then tapped her on the head. To avoid Fang You's punishnt, Xia Nuo hugged him and while embracing him, she pushed him down onto the sofa to lie down, and then she climbed on top of him, happily looking down at Fang You with her head propped up:
"I feel like we're just like a married couple now! Do you still rember when we used to play house as kids? Back then..."
Xia Nuo and Fang You began sharing many interesting stories from their childhood, and as they talked, Xia Nuo grew sentintal:
"Unbelievably, we've grown up so much..."
"Ti flies so quickly, whoosh, and it's gone in the blink of an eye."
Xia Nuo puffed her cheeks and blew at her sowhat ssy bangs, then tidied them up again:
"But... I can't always be a child who does whatever she wants."
As she said this, it was as if she had made up her mind. She looked towards Fang You with a bright smile and pinched his hand:
"Alright, my obedient little darling, it's ti to go back to bed and rest!"
...
"Oh, such a big person now; do you still need Mom to carry you to bed and sing you a lullaby to get you to sleep?"
"If you don't answer, I'll just assu you want Mommy to carry you over!"
Xia Nuo said as she pretended to pick up Fang You. Of course, Emperor Youyou's agility couldn't be compared to his little childhood friend's, and before Xia Nuo laid hands on him, he had strategically retreated back to his own bedroom.
"Hahaha, make sure to rest well! Otherwise, Mommy will check to see if you've fallen asleep later."
Xia Nuo's voice ca from outside the door.
At this mont, Fang You, who was staring at the ceiling of his room, was in a state of contemplating life.
On one hand, he was very uncomfortable with the feeling of being taken care of.
On the other hand, he was very dissatisfied with his current performance.
Ever since he had started to react to Xia Nuo, Fang You had been constantly displeased with his present behavior.
Although his lapse could be chalked up to the normal throes of adolescent perturbations, Fang You wasn't like those inept older workers who, jobless by their late twenties, wallow in self-pity and bla their parents, society, or the world. He analyzed his problems.
The sense of awkwardness still lingered like a shadow over Emperor Youyou's heart and refused to dissipate for a long ti.
If I can't even handle an 11-year-old girl, what kind of emperor am I?
Speaking of which, it's just the loss of speech, and yet my presence was totally suppressed by Nuo Nuo…
This is really not on par with the level I display usually.
However, the idea of being taken care of by Nuo Nuo and sleeping through to the third day isn't a bad one.
The problem is with my talent for abundant energy, I only need a little bit of ti to fall asleep and can't stay asleep for long.
Anyway, I should still give it a try.
No sooner had Fang You closed his eyes than he heard the sound of Xia Nuo opening the door.
Seeing that Fang You had already closed his eyes, she gently set down her backpack, sat at Fang You's desk, and then took out her workbook.
She's actually started to study on her own!
Fang You felt sowhat surprised because in recent years, he rarely saw Nuo Nuo studying by herself.
They were always together daily, with Fang You urging Xia Nuo to take out her howork and then coaxing a bit beside him before, under Fang You's supervision, she would start working hard on her studies and practice problems. Fang You subconsciously felt that Xia Nuo rarely studied hard on her own.
However, upon further reflection, even though she was only a sixth-grader, the content of her study had already covered up to junior high school level. She couldn't have achieved this rely with soone else's supervision.
Nuo Nuo just had so resistance to things she couldn't understand, and currently, her grades in certain subjects were still far below the entrance standards of Zhendan Academy. There's a lot of room for improvent if she wants to get admitted.
So the issue at hand is how to get Xia Nuo to accept and apply those problem-solving thods that she can't comprehend.
That being said, although Nuo Nuo has had many tutors before, Fang You always felt those teachers were sowhat lacking, at least they weren't adept at teaching Nuo Nuo to learn the knowledge.
...
If others can't do it, I wonder if there is room for to work with the system's power?
As Fang You pondered his next steps, a snap ca from the direction of the desk.
Xia Nuo, dozing off while doing her howork, smacked her head down on the desk.
"Ouch, ouch, ouch, ouch..."
Xia Nuo, having woken up in the morning alone to work on her howork, seed tired and resud her problem-solving.
At that mont, Fang You suddenly noticed the wall clock above his desk was wobbling precariously, on the verge of falling.
anwhile, Xia Nuo was still engrossed in her problems, completely unaware.
Almost like an electric shock, without thinking, Fang You instinctively shouted—
"Watch out!"
With Fang You's shout, Xia Nuo abruptly turned around, and the wall clock that was about to hit her head "thwack" landed in front of the desk instead.
And almost simultaneously, Fang You, having shouted, rushed over and appeared in front of Xia Nuo, protecting her in his arms.
"Woah, that was close..."
"Youyou? I—I'm okay... Oh, can you talk now?"
...
Ah.
I let it slip out...
And with that, all the efforts of the past two days were in vain...
But, oh well.
This task was a bit difficult for to begin with.
If I can't complete it, then so be it...
Fang You held Xia Nuo tightly in his arms, and then spoke softly:
"Alright, the ga of playing sick is over."
