Becoming a life winner from infancy

Chapter 23: Men change their minds so easily 022

Frankly, in the process of organizing this birthday party, Xia Anyang indeed had some fatherly self-interest.

He hoped that Fang You and Xia Nuo's birthdays wouldn't be bound so tightly together.

It wasn't that he particularly disliked the kid Fang You... on the contrary, he thought he was pretty good.

It was just that, if the two families always celebrated birthdays together, Nuo Nuo's birthday wouldn't really be an opportunity for me, as her dad, to show off.

As they grew older, the conflicts would emerge when the two kids celebrated their birthdays together, since the preferences of boys and girls slowly diverge, and disagreements are bound to happen sooner or later.

Even twins who are brother and sister might squabble over this matter, let alone just good friends like Fang You and Xia Nuo.

Therefore, after the adults had discussed it, they asked the children what they thought about their birthdays.

"I want to have my birthday with You You, I want to have it with You You!" Xia Nuo was staunchly for celebrating together.

"Just go along with what Nuo Nuo wants," Fang You said, even willing to let Nuo Nuo decide on the birthday party theme.

Seeing the Fang family's kid being so understanding and reasonable made Xia Anyang feel a bit guilty.

So, when discussing the budget for the birthday party, he took the initiative to offer to cover most of the costs.

This time, the theme was more towards a cute, cartoon-like pink princess fantasy style, and it would seem very impolite for him to let Fang You's family bear more of the cost.

In addition to inviting good friends from kindergarten, both families also invited the kids who had participated in the show "Fall in Love with Kindergarten" to the birthday party.

Asai Reina got dressed up early and took care with her outfit.

She couldn't wait to hold hands and chat with her good friend You You.

I got here so early, I must be the first one, huh!

"Hello uncle and auntie!"

"Oh my, Reina has grown so tall, how cute."

Chen Xuan patted Asai Reina's head.

Normally, Reina would avoid being patted on the head by adults, but since you're You You's mom, Reina will let you pat her more.

Today, Asai Reina is yet another magnanimous and well-behaved child —

"Is this Reina? I almost didn't recognize you..."

!

It's Nuo Nuo's mom, Aunt Lin Yi!

When Asai Reina saw Lin Yi coming over to greet her, she instinctively wanted to avoid it.

But I've already let You You's mom pat me, and if I avoid it now, I'll be seen as a rude child.

No, I can't do that...

"Good girl, pat pat."

Lin Yi smiled and said, "The dress you're wearing today is so pretty. Is it a princess dress from some cartoon?"

Excited by the comment, Reina's eyes lit up, "Yes! It's Princess Vivi's dress from 'Violet Princess'."

"This shade of light purple really suits you; you indeed look quite the princess!"

Ehehe...

Lin Yi pinched Asai Reina's cheek.

Reina couldn't resist interacting with her more, as Lin Yi smelled wonderfully.

Uh...

Reina has defected.

Nuo Nuo's mom is tender and beautiful, why does Nuo Nuo dislike her so much!

Reina really couldn't understand how mother and daughter could be so different.

After greeting the uncles and aunties, Reina went looking for Fang You.

You You, where are you, You You...

Where could You You be?

Asai Reina noticed that the birthday party decorations were very dreamlike and cartoonish, her gaze inadvertently drawn to the thematic decor around her.

This castle selfie wall is so pretty! I will get my dad to buy one...

This is Princess Lafa from 'Jasmine Fairy'!

I like it so much too! I'll ask You You to take a photo for me later.

Asai Reina lingered and forgot herself at the party venue.

It was as if she were a beautiful princess in her own fairy tale world!

...

Wait, hold on!

Asai Reina suddenly realized a serious problem.

This was more than just a girl's fantasy birthday party.

It was practically a girl's fantasy birthday party!

Where's my You You?

Even though it was both their birthdays, You You didn't seem to have a name to call his own.

Asai Reina only vaguely found You You's name in the title above the floral stage that was the centerpiece of the birthday party.

You You was definitely being bossed around by Nuo Nuo!

Asai Reina's sense of mission +20!

Reina searched here and there, but she couldn't find Fang You anywhere.

Just then, she noticed several children gathered in a corner of the restaurant, seemingly observing something on the ground.

Humph, a bunch of childish kids.

They must be squatting on the ground, watching ants move or something like that.

This is exactly the kind of friend Nuo Nuo would make...

Just at that moment, Xia Nuo came running over from another side of the venue, and Asai Reina watched her go over.

See, Reina knew it would be like this, they are all Nuo Nuo's friends.

Humph...

Ling Nai admitted she had become a bit prettier than before.

But it was her birthday today, and she still dressed very casually.

So don't blame the adorable princess Ling Nai in her purple princess puff dress for stealing your thunder!

"You You, has Ayu come out yet?"

"Not yet."

The faces of little kids squatting on the ground started to appear, and Fang You's was among them.

Ah, so You You was here too!

With You You around, things were different.

Everyone must be doing some kind of science experiment!

Ling Nai wanted to see as well...

Asai Reina immediately covered her slightly nervous little heart, straightened her clothes, and walked forward proactively.

Peering through the crowd of children, Ling Nai spotted a little girl stuck behind the back of the sofa.

This girl looked somewhat familiar.

It was like she had recorded a program with her...

It was Ayu.

Asai Reina remembered that Ayu was a crybaby, always a tag-along stuck to Xia Nuo's coattails.

At this moment, Luo Xianyu was stuck in the crevice behind the sofa.

With eyes red, she sat on the ground, and although a few kids wanted to pull her out, she clung to the sofa leg, adamantly refusing to come out.

"Okay, don't cry, Ayu, it's all right... It's not Ayu's fault the gift broke!"

Xia Nuo gently patted her hands, comforting Luo Xianyu, and then showed her a clay doll that she had You You's dad help her fix:

"Look at this! I've had You You's dad glue it back together, and it's just as cute, see!"

Seeing the clear glue mark on the doll's head, Luo Xianyu became more emotional!

She opened her mouth, trying to cry out, but her throat was so hoarse from crying, she couldn't make a sound anymore.

Seeing this situation, none of the kids could think of a good idea to solve it.

"Better call an adult to help," Du Anqi said.

Wang Xuanxuan also nodded, "I, I think so too..."

Just then, Fang You suddenly stood up, his arms akimbo and a resigned expression on his face.

Asai Reina's anticipation shot through the roof!

I knew it, You You was about to pull off something impressive!

Let's see, what great method our You You will come up with to deal with this disobedient crybaby—

"Ayu, if you don't come out, I'll take Nuo Nuo away, you know!"

...

As Fang You spoke, he picked up Xia Nuo under everyone's gaze. Though Fang You had grown quickly, children are still short-limbed, and Xia Nuo clung tightly to Fang You.

Asai Reina's eyes widened!

Then, Fang You let out a mischievous chuckle, "Hehehe, I will make Nuo Nuo only my friend, and she'll only ever play house with me..."

Xia Nuo seemed to understand Fang You's intent and frantically clung to him, fake crying.

"Ayu, save me, wuu wuu—"

"You can't, you can't pick on Nuo Nuo!"

Luo Xianyu, seeing Xia Nuo being picked on by Fang You, immediately reacted.

She quickly wriggled out from behind the sofa, pulled Xia Nuo away from Fang You, and then chased after Fang You, swinging her little fists.

With Luo Xianyu's feeble punches raining down on him, Fang You led her to the sofa, lifted her up, and sat her down.

...

Speaking of which, why isn't any Emotional Energy acquisition prompt jumping out?

Ayu doesn't really dislike me, does she? So that's how it is.

Luo Xianyu's emotions had stabilized a little, and Xia Nuo handed her the mended clay doll.

"Look, the doll looks pretty good like this, doesn't it?"

"I'm sorry, I, I broke yours..."

Luo Xianyu held the clay doll and spoke to it, gently stroking its head, and quietly apologizing to it.

Goodness...

This pitiful look, not just the adults, even the children felt sorry for her.

One after the other, they all came up to comfort Luo Xianyu.

Take turns patting her head.

Fang You also patted her head.

"No more crying, Ayu..."

Stop thinking about the doll, throw more tantrums at me, Ayu!

Seeing Fang You being so tender with Luo Xianyu, Asai Reina was enviously tongue-tied.

Does You You now like crybaby types of kids?

Ling Nai was very capable of crying on shows; why didn't you like her then?

Hmph...

Men are indeed a fickle breed.

Asai Reina sighed helplessly in her heart.

But no matter, Ling Nai just needed to change her battle plan!
