Chapter 8: 007 Mom, I want it!
Chapter 8: 007 Mom, I want it!
After lunch at home, Fang You and Xia Nuo went downstairs to play.
As Fang You's figure appeared on the neighborhood roads, children playing in the sand, those eating lollipops, and even a child pulling another's face all turned their gaze toward him simultaneously.
Wow, truly a baby planned to win right from the starting line!
While ordinary kids were still playing with twist cars, balance bikes, and tricycles, the mere 1.5-year-old Fang You already had a luxury toy car and was enjoying a fabulous life!
Fang You drove very smoothly, with Xia Nuo bobbing her head beside him, but if someone was blocking the way, Xia Nuo would take the initiative to press the horn.
Beep beep, beep beep!
Watching Xia Nuo's smile bloom with excitement just from pressing the horn, Fang You suddenly felt a bit envious of her.
Nuo Nuo's happiness is so simple and pure...
Not like me, still having to work hard at walking to achieve my growth goals.
After cruising around a few times, it almost entered into a frenzy mode!
Fang Guanghui had been following behind the car and was so out of breath after being 'walked' for a loop.
This kid... it's almost like he forgot to drink the Forgetfulness Soup in his last life!
How is his driving skill so good!
Fang You took Xia Nuo around the complex, reveling in the satisfying life of a little big brother.
At that moment, a chubby kid playing with a twist car and sniffling saw Fang You's car and his eyes went wide.
He ditched his own twist car and chased after Fang You for a while before turning back and tugging at his mother's clothes:
"Mommy, I want to play with that too!"
"Don't we already have so many cars at home, and you get tired of them after a while."
"No... I want that one, just that one!"
The chubby little boy started to nag his mom relentlessly, squirming like a maggot.
He fully demonstrated the physical flexibility of a child, and his mom failed repeatedly to pick him up. His shirt was almost lifted, revealing his pale belly.
The auntie was endlessly nagged by her child and felt extremely annoyed.
Ah, whose damn child is this...
Why buy such harmful toys, just showing off with a few dirty money.
She saw Fang Guanghui approaching, breathless, and guessed that this must be Fang You and Xia Nuo's parent, so she struck up a conversation:
"That, can our Zhuang Zhuang borrow your car to play for a bit? If it's fun, I'll buy one for my Zhuang Zhuang too!"
"That... depends on whether the kids are willing."
Fang Guanghui scratched his head, then looked toward Fang You.
Fang You's response was NO.
He shook his finger with a cool and resolute expression.
"This... you see, he doesn't want to... I can't do anything about it."
Fang Guanghui spread his hands helplessly but was chuckling inside.
Although this parent didn't know Fang Guanghui, Fang Guanghui knew her mischievous child well!
This troublemaker was quite disliked usually; he once peed in the apartment elevator, causing the neighbors to be full of complaints.
"Just pick him up for a bit, let him play for a bit! Hmm, our family can afford it too... "
"Then why doesn't auntie buy it?"
Xia Nuo tilted her head and asked the auntie a soul-searching question.
"That, that's because it's not New Year's yet, and the shops haven't opened... "
"Then you can, wait for the store to open and then buy!"
Xia Nuo appeared very sincere.
As if she was really giving advice!
But naturally, the auntie felt she was being naive, and with a grin that was not quite a smile, she said:
"Oh dear, such a fancy little girl... With good things, you must learn to share, didn't they teach you that at home? Tsk tsk tsk..."
The auntie rambled on at Xia Nuo, but Xia Nuo couldn't remember all her words and just tilted her little head in confusion, flashing a dazed smile.
It was at that moment, Fang You's cool voice came from beside Xia Nuo, cutting off the auntie's tirade.
"What's it to you?"
Since the child seemed so reticent, she thought he was easy to bully, but to her surprise, he was quite assertive.
"Hey there, your kid looks so little and I didn't expect him to be so fierce..."
"Mommy, I want to play! I want to play now!"
The little boy pulled on his mom's arm, and the auntie, having no choice, changed her approach, coaxing with a gentle and soft tone of voice:
"See, Zhuang Zhuang really wants to play, why not let him have a turn? Just once!"
"What's it to me."
Fang You had an indifferent expression on his face.
"Hey, you kid... At such a tender age, how can you be so confrontational?"
"Enough, he's just a child. You're an adult, why haggle over every little thing with him!"
Fang Guanghui laughed and chuckled, "Kids say the darnedest things..."
Although his son's attitude was indeed not polite, using it on this woman was indeed very satisfying.
The auntie composed herself and began to chatter endlessly:
"Your child is so young and yet so impolite. As a parent, you really need to discipline him properly!"
"Indeed, he should be disciplined properly..."
Fang Guanghui nodded seriously, "If my son is like this at such a young age, what will become of him when he grows up? He'll definitely pee in the elevator."
The auntie had been nodding in agreement, self-satisfied, but when she heard Fang Guanghui's last remark, she suddenly couldn't maintain her composure:
"You, how can you speak like that!"
"Am I wrong?" Fang Guanghui scratched his head.
"I, what I mean is..."
The little chubster, seeing that the adults had been arguing for so long and still hadn't let him get on the ride, immediately became discontent and started to twist and turn wildly again.
"Mommy, Mommy, I want it!"
"Mo-mo, mo-mo, I want mo—"
Xia Nuo mimicked the chubster's tone, as if teasing him.
Ah, it was really inexplicable.
The chubster's whining was so annoying to the ear.
Yet the tone Nuo Nuo imitated was both creamy and cute, like the sound of angels!
Ah!
There was a sweetness that made one want to give her the whole world.
Hearing Xia Nuo mimic the speech, Zhuang Zhuang seemed to realize that he was being mocked. His mood completely crumbled, and he lay on the ground, kicking and screaming, blocking the middle of the road with his body stretched straight.
Like a salted fish flipping and bouncing in a frying pan.
This isn't good!
Fang You went into alert mode.
At such a young age, he had learned to scam.
This child already had the appearance of a Great Emperor!
Bam bam!
At this moment, Xia Nuo suddenly pressed the horn and shouted along loudly, "Please! Move! Aside!"
Xia Nuo's inflammatory Joyous Man behavior made Fang You laugh out loud.
Meanwhile, Zhuang Zhuang was crying while kicking and screaming.
No one came to coax him, and Xia Nuo kept pressing the horn non-stop. He instantly scraped himself up from the ground with a dirty face.
The enraged Zhuang Zhuang, revealing his bratty nature, rudely tried to pry the car door open to steal the ride.
"Let me get on, I want to! Move away!"
Fang You made a split-second decision and powered forward, zooming past the little chubster.
Zhuang Zhuang chased after Fang You's car, crying and shouting, but Fang You didn't run too far, just circled around the children's playground, leading the little chubster around.
Fang You displayed driving skills that amounted to a dimensional strike, toying with Zhuang Zhuang with ease.
All the while, Xia Nuo watched gleefully as Zhuang Zhuang pursued tirelessly, sticking out her tongue and making faces at the little chubster.
Only when Zhuang Zhuang was too tired to chase and sat down on the ground wailing did she finally laugh contentedly.
She collapsed into Fang You's arms, laughing so hard she shook!
...
Fang You thought carefully.
Nuo Nuo, this little girl, exuded positive, joyful Energy from head to toe.
To live so transparently from a young age, in a sense, was also a Talent, right?
After New Year's, Fang You strolled around the neighborhood every day.
Strolled with his grandma.
Strolled with Xia Nuo.
At the age of 2, he finally achieved the growth milestone of [Walking]—
[Congratulations! You've successfully walked 100 kilometers, unlocking a new growth Talent!]
