Becoming a life winner from infancy

Fang You had his fill at Xia Nuo's place and then began to check the progress of his energy accumulation for the day.

Martial Arts Hall actual combat techniques: knowledge energy+121

Dance skills and postures: knowledge energy+75

Other miscellaneous: knowledge energy+31

Restoring martial arts glory: knowledge energy+1000

Zhao Yueqing and Xia Anyang: emotional energy+221

Daily food intake: growth energy+70*1.2 ([Clean Plate Ambassador]bonus)

Adding it all up, he had amassed over 1500 energy in just one day, a fruitful haul indeed.

Of course, a large part of today's energy gains came from random tasks.

Such opportunities were hard to come by; it would take several triggers to discern any pattern.

Fang You was still quite curious about the talent for knowledge.

At that moment, Xia Nuo also clang-clang-clang finished her meal, wiped her mouth, and then sidled up to Fang You, leaning on his shoulder and cooing:

"You You, guess what I'm going to show you tonight…"

"Cough, cough, cough."

Xia Anyang coughed a few times, then reminded Xia Nuo, "Nuo Nuo, you and You You are getting too close. You are a girl; don't be so intimate with boys casually."

"I haven't been casually intimate with other boys."

Xia Nuo leaned on Fang You's shoulder, "But You You is my best friend, can't I even whisper to him?"

"It's not that you can't, Daddy means that you should keep a little distance when you're together. You being so close to You You, it might make him uncomfortable, right?"

"Like this, do you feel uncomfortable?"

Xia Nuo encircled Fang You's neck, looking at him curiously.

Fang You glanced at Xia Anyang, who was staring at him, then innocently shook his head.

"Not at all…"

Sorry, I didn't mean to upset you, Uncle Xia!

Dad often teaches me not to be a child who lies!

[Xia Anyang feels your audacity! Emotional Energy+30]

"See, You You says he feels comfortable when I'm close to him!"

Xia Nuo's paraphrasing always sounded a bit exaggerated; had Xia Anyang not been there, he might have grabbed a knife and come looking for Fang You on the spot.

"Alright, don't pressure You You into taking a stand. You might scare him."

Lin Yi smiled and patted Xia Anyang on the shoulder, whispering, "It's fine for good friends to play together, they are just kids."

I've been hearing that since kindergarten…

At this point, Ayu also finished her chicken leg in small bites and wiped her mouth before saying to Xia Nuo: "Nuo Nuo, I'm done too."

"Great! Then I'll take you to see that thing!"

Xia Anyang felt like he'd been struck by lightning when he heard this, and then asked weakly:

"Eh, Nuo Nuo, didn't you agree to watch it with Dad tonight?"

"Woof, woof, woof!"

Xia Nuo suddenly made cute puppy barks at Xia Anyang.

"What does that mean?" Xia Anyang looked puzzled.

"Sorry, Daddy."

"I lied to you, I'm a doggy."

Xia Nuo stuck out her tongue, "But now I want to take You You and Ayu to see it together!"

Children of preschool age, when they are getting exposed to various kinds of knowledge, are filled with curiosity and a thirst for learning.

At this stage, they are very very reliant on adults for guidance and assistance, which makes the company and care of their parents all the more essential.

Although Nuo Nuo's interests had shifted from music to slightly more niche things like science fiction, astronomy, and the universe, Xia Anyang was studying hard.

"Nuo Nuo, you haven't even used it yourself yet. Let Daddy show you how to use it."

"No need, Daddy. I'll try it myself first!"

Xia Nuo said, "If I can't do it, I'll come down and call for you!"

Xia Nuo pulled Fang You and Luo Xianyu into the music room. She couldn't wait to dive into her secret base, wiggling her bottom as she went.

Then, she brought out her long-hidden treasure to generously show her buddies:

"Ta-da-da-dah!"

It turned out that the cool thing Nuo Nuo had talked about was an astronomical telescope!

Looking at its complex and precise structure and sleek material, it was clear it was quite expensive.

```

Uncle Xia, you're so nice to Nuo Nuo.

Fang You and Luo Xianyu helped Xia Nuo move the astronomical telescope to the rooftop of the multistoried building.

The night sky was clear today, making it a perfect day for star-gazing.

Fang You read the manual and harvested a wave of knowledge energy about the astronomical telescope, then he cooperated with Xia Nuoluo and Luo Xianyu to install the eyepiece and finderscope before calibrating the altitude and azimuth to ensure the telescope was balanced on its stand in all directions.

With that, the job was done!

Next up, observing celestial bodies!

With such good weather today, it was naturally an excellent opportunity to observe the moon. Even without the finderscope, they could quickly locate and point it at the moon.

Xia Nuo aligned the telescope with the moon and turned the focus knob, then slowly stepped away from the viewing position.

"It's done! Now, which little friend wants to be the first to take a look at the moon?"

"Me, me!"

Luo Xianyu eagerly raised her hand, and Xia Nuo promptly stepped aside to let Luo Xianyu take a look. "Here, Ayu, take a look at the moon! This is the closest you've been to observing the moon!"

Luo Xianyu adjusted the eyepiece guided by Xia Nuo.

"Wow, I see it! So clear!"

Although Luo Xianyu wasn't as passionate about astronomical observation as Xia Nuo, she had always enjoyed following Xia Nuo around since kindergarten, taking pleasure in whatever Nuo Nuo did.

For a child like Ayu, having someone to play with seemed to make her very happy.

"But the moon looks so bare and has so many pimples on its face, not smooth at all."

"Those are craters, Ayu. Do you know how craters are formed? They're created by meteorite impacts."

"Then the moon's face must hurt a lot."

Luo Xianyu happily stepped away from the telescope and called Fang You over, "I'm done. Now it's Dad's turn to look!"

In recent years, Fang You had read quite a few books on the universe and had seen many images and photos of the moon's surface.

However, the experience of observing through an astronomical telescope was indeed completely different from the experience he previously had from books.

[You experienced observing the moon through an astronomical telescope for the first time. Knowledge energy +1]

This silvery celestial body, when observed through the telescope, didn't possess the same hazy beauty it had under the moonlit night. Instead, it felt somewhat rough.

Yet, while observing the surface of the moon and imagining what was happening at that moment on the distant celestial body 380,000 kilometers away, Fang You suddenly felt an indescribable sense of tranquility.

Although the universe is vast and immeasurable, other planets and the Blue Planet are all separated by immense distances measured in light-years.

The moon, however, has always been hanging in that position.

Whether it was thousands or tens of thousands of years ago, or in that past world and this current one.

It has always been accompanying the Blue Planet, never departing.

Yet, in the many years since the birth of human civilization, the number of times humans have set foot on it can be counted on one hand.

Even the few occurrences that did happen are mired in controversy over their authenticity.

Thinking back on it, the feelings become rather complex...

[You indulged for the first time in the wonderful experience brought by a grand narrative! Knowledge energy +1]

Fang You was brought back to reality by the system's prompt when he heard Xia Nuo's voice:

"Ayu, did you know? You You and I have made a promise to go to the moon together in the future!"

"Ayu wants to go too! Don't leave me behind..." Luo Xianyu said pitifully.

"Does Ayu want to be an astronaut too?"

Luo Xianyu recalled the grueling astronaut training Xia Nuo had previously explained to her.

Ayu surrendered with a wave of her hand: "Then Ayu will wait for you to come back..."

"But... when you go, you'll come back, right?"

"Hahaha, of course!"

Xia Nuo nodded vigorously, took Luo Xianyu's hand seriously, and said, "Our home is on this planet. No matter where I go, I will always come back one day to see you all!"

"Then... let's make a pinky promise!"

"Pinky promise, hang on a hook, one hundred billion years, no changing!"

The children observed many, many stars that night, gazing upon the brilliant galaxy.

Xia Nuo energetically shared her dream with her friends, hoping that one day, her spaceship could travel to every corner of the Milky Way.

Seeing Xia Nuo's eyes brimming with starlight, Fang You suddenly had the strange thought that this child might actually make it happen.

After all, the dream that was promised at the age of four wasn't forgotten by the age of eight.

That in itself was already an impressive achievement.

For some reason, he was reminded of a phrase from some knowledgeable book he had read before—

[One of the most romantic and awe-inspiring things in the world is that what you see through an astronomical telescope is actually a scene from years, decades, or even thousands, tens of thousands, or hundreds of thousands of years ago]

[The light they emit or reflect travels across countless periods, and one of their rays is ultimately captured by your eyes, meeting you in this world]
