Becoming a life winner from infancy

Chapter 20: 019 Thank you should be said in person

Fang You, Xia Nuo, and Luo Xianyu were all child stars who had been on TV shows, and the kindergarten principal valued them highly. Therefore, the performance they prepared was naturally scheduled as the grand finale.

The waiting process was somewhat boring, and the parents sitting below were not really focusing on watching the performances. They were just waiting for their own children to go on stage, take pictures, and, out of courtesy, felt embarrassed to leave early.

However, for Fang You, this was clearly a great opportunity to harvest "Emotional Energy" from the crowd offline!

Charge, charge, charge!

"Next, please enjoy the song and dance of 'Guardians of the Flowers' by our little friends from the Giraffe Class: Fang You, Xia Nuo, and Luo Xianyu. Let's give them a warm welcome."

Amidst the enthusiastic applause, Fang You, dressed in a casual baseball outfit and cap, slowly walked onto the stage.

With years of experience performing on TV, Fang You was very composed in front of adults and radiated a distinctive kid-brother aura, attracting everyone's attention as soon as he appeared.

He bowed to the audience first and then sat down at his drum set, put on his headphones, held the drumsticks in both hands, and closed his eyes to focus.

"Yo, this kid's got style."

"This child was on TV before. He's the one from 'Falling in Love with Kindergarten'."

Listeing to the parents' murmurings, Fang Guanghui felt his father figure grow a few centimeters taller.

The children who had finished performing had now returned to their parents' sides.

Now, it was obvious which children hadn't returned and who was still on stage.

He straightened his collar, waiting for other parents to approach and ask him about it.

This child is my pride and joy.

"Is this your son? He's as handsome as you!"

Here it comes!

I've been waiting for this moment!

Fang Guanghui cleared his throat, ready to reply, when he realized the parent was asking Xia Anyang, who was sitting next to him.

The two dads, Fang Guanghui and Xia Anyang, flushed simultaneously:

Xia Anyang, "He doesn't look anything like me!"

Fang Guanghui, "He's not like him at all! Clearly, he resembles me."

"Ah, it's your son? I'm really sorry, so sorry..."

Fang Guanghui and Xia Anyang looked at each other, feeling the odd sense of their past memories welling up in their hearts again, making their expressions complicated.

Honestly, Xia Anyang was just a smidgen handsomer than Fang Guanghui, but to say You You looked like him was far-fetched.

Our children have indeed been mixed up once.

But there's no way we'd make the same mistake a second time!

Salvation from the awkward atmosphere came with the sudden start of the backing music.

Xia Anyang and Fang Guanghui immediately sprang into action.

The show was about to start!

We're here on a mission from our wives!

The digital device Xia Anyang was holding up with one hand was a well-known brand's compact handheld DV: The FDR-BX60 from the Sony series, 4K HDR high-definition digital camcorder, lifelike imagery, precise focus, optical image stabilization, 12x smooth zoom, and professional-level video shooting capabilities, priced at 34,600 yuan!

[Every splendid moment of my little cotton-padded jacket's growth, Xia Anyang will not miss out on!]

Xia Anyang is brimming with confidence!

Fang Guanghui took out his bluemi50K smart photography tool, 30 million pixels, velvety glass texture, shiny metallic frame, wild engine, environmental sensing, AI rendering, presenting 1K-level game visual effects, and known as the king of cost-performance, priced at 2,399 yuan!

Even more amazing is that it can even be used as a phone.

[Please, I have to capture a clear shot of his face! Otherwise, my wife will scold me to death when I get back!]

Fang Guanghui is trembling with fear!

The 30-second intro was Fang You's chance to shine on stage, where his drumsticks were like magic wands in his hands, dancing and twirling, striking the snare drum, then the hi-hat, and occasionally the bass drum.

Once a connoisseur takes action, their skill is evident!

Fang You's impressive performance stirred up cheers and endless chatter in the hall, reinvigorating the parents to focus and watch the performance on stage.

"Damn, this is the real deal of music..."

[Luo Yong envies your ability to chase your music dreams from a young age, Emotional Energy +1]

"Whose kid is this? So impressive! I might let my son try drumming too."

[Your outstanding performance has inspired Chen Gang to resolve to tiger parent his child, Emotional Energy +2]

"All three-year-olds, but my kid still needs to be fed... I'm seriously going to cry!"

[Song Qing, after watching your performance, plans to go home and discipline her child, Emotional Energy +1]

Xia Anyang meticulously recorded the scene with his DV, but Xia Nuo had yet to appear on stage.

Wait, wait a second...

Where's my daughter?

Not in sight.

My daughter hasn't come on stage yet, are they starting the performance now?

Hey!

Stop the music!

While the parents were all murmuring, there seemed to be some movement at the side of the stage.

Teacher Taozi was beckoning someone over.

Thank goodness, my Nuo Bao is finally coming!

I'm going to share the most beautiful side of Nuo Bao with thousands of netizens!

Xia Anyang concentrated intently, awaiting the arrival of his angel.

...

Wait?

Where's my Nuo Bao?

I had such a big Nuo Bao!

All I see are two frogs trying to sell their offspring!

Two such frogs appeared at the side of the stage, one red and one green.

After climbing onto the stage, the red frog kept bouncing around and realized that the green frog was still shivering offstage, so it pulled the green frog up, and then they bounced together.

This funny sequence of movements triggered a burst of laughter from the audience.

"Hahaha, is this part of the performance?"

"Yo yo, whose child is this? It feels like the kid inside the costume is about to cry."

[That night I met her on the streets]

[My legs decided to follow her home, no matter the calls]

[The chilly night wind shall not touch her]

[Her deep eyes almost spoke to me]

[Slender figure, twirling, come turn silently]

The two frogs on the stage were Xia Nuo and Luo Xianyu, who wore this costume earlier in the performance. Fang You negotiated with the previous wearers to borrow it, so Luo Xianyu also had the courage to step onto the stage.

With the pounding drumbeat in the background, Xia Nuo was like a happy little dog, dancing and hopping around continuously, while Luo Xianyu stood stiffly beside her, completely out of her element.

But at least she didn't have to open her eyes and see how everyone was staring at her.

If you're afraid of the attention, just make sure that no one knows it's you!

At least, she was now standing on the stage!

"Hahaha I'm about to die of laughter! The frog next door jumps so adorably!"

"Even through the costume, I feel embarrassed for the green frog."

"I can't hold it in anymore, why is it so funny!"

"Pffhahaha... but honestly, this is way more interesting than everyone's prim and proper performances!"

Everyone pulled out their phones to film the dancing and singing, and the audience's attention was completely captivated by the two frogs.

Halfway through the song, Ayu, who was frozen in place, noticed that everyone loved their performance and gradually gained some courage, starting to flail her arms wildly and bravely.

Let's go crazy together!

Luo Xianyu finally jumped out boldly.

Xia Nuo, seeing this, jumped even more joyfully!

Fang You, drumming along, felt deeply gratified seeing the two happy frogs.

The performance of a three-year-old child was meant to be entertaining; the audience wasn't really there to appreciate art. Since they weren't competing for any awards, there was no need to prioritize professionalism over the effectiveness of the performance.

The trio of Fang You achieved that.

They displayed the show's effectiveness to the fullest.

[Congratulations on showcasing your talent for the first time on Children's Day, you've been rewarded with 300 points of Growth Energy! Current Energy total (9721/50000)]

[Hidden Talent [Little Star] unlocked: Charisma +10]

After the performance, Xia Nuo and Luo Xianyu took off their frog headgear and hopped off the stage together.

"Being able to perform on stage with You You and Ayu, I'm really happy today!"

Xia Nuo delivered a feisty and fiery dance today; after taking off the headgear, her face was drenched with sweat.

Luo Xianyu took the initiative to go up and wipe the sweat off Xia Nuo's face.

"Thank you, thank you Nuo Nuo!"

"No, that's not right!"

Xia Nuo suddenly stopped laughing and shook her little head vigorously, rejecting Luo Xianyu's words.

"What's not right?"

"You shouldn't be thanking me!"

Xia Nuo said seriously, "You should really thank You You because it was You You's great idea, something I couldn't have thought up!"

"Um..."

Xia Nuo took Luo Xianyu by the hand and led her in front of Fang You:

"Come, properly thank You You... You're friends too, when someone helps you, you should thank them to their face. That's what good children do."

Luo Xianyu stood in front of Fang You, muttered a soft 'thank you', and gave Fang You a hug.

She was short, so when hugging Fang You, she could only reach his chest, giving off a somewhat clingy feeling.

"Thank you, You You."

"You're welcome."

After hugging Fang You, perhaps feeling a bit shy, Luo Xianyu quickly scurried behind Xia Nuo, clutching Xia Nuo's arm, bowing her small head, looking at the ground, and tracing circles on the floor with her foot.

[Luo Xianyu suddenly realizes she doesn't actually dislike you that much, Emotional Energy +1]

Fang You immediately showed a look of nervous panic.

...

Are you planning to become a fish that can only replenish 1 point of Energy for me every day?

No, don't... sob sob...

Fang You's fragile heart took a tiny hit.
