Becoming a life winner from infancy

Qiankun City is located inland within China, at the heart of Zhongzhou, originally just a rather remote and desolate small inland city, with vast expanses of desert outside the town, almost uninhabited.

Ever since China's aerospace launch base was located near this city, the space agency also organized rocket launch viewing events, attracting a large number of space enthusiasts to visit and play.

The massive influx of space and astronomy enthusiasts spurred the rapid development of local tourism and cultural industries, and the city gradually became prosperous. Even some well-known luxury hotel brands built locations here, becoming distinctive landmarks of the area.

Indeed, to prepare an unforgettable holiday trip for Nuo Nuo, Xia Anyang reserved a luxury suite at a local Eight Seasons Hotel!

Such a suite would ordinarily not be priced below five thousand, and during the tourist season, it could approach ten thousand or more. Now, with China's centennial celebration of the moon landing, the price had skyrocketed to a level that ordinary people like Fang Guanghui could not even dream of!

Xia Anyang led the group to his reserved suite, where the bellhops turned on the lights for the spacious and bright, high-end and prestigious, technology-themed suite.

Xia Nuo and Fang Guanghui couldn't help but exclaim:

"Wow... is it really so, so cool!"

Hmph, of course it's cool!

This suite's theme is a custom exclusive to Qiankun City. For the moon landing celebration, it underwent a comprehensive upgrade and renovation. This highly sought-after and luxurious suite was priceless on the market, and only a great father like me could fulfill such a dream for his daughter!

Looking at someone else's father, all he knows is to go along shouting "666."

Seeing the excitement on Xia Nuo's face, Xia Anyang knew this was his chance to ask for a "Thank you, Daddy," a "love hug," and to show Fang You who's the first great man who could truly bring happiness to Nuo Nuo.

This perfect moment to take credit couldn't just be missed!

So, he coughed a few times, then asked:

"So, do you like the room, Nuo—"

"I love it, love it so much!"

Fang Guanghui cut off Xia Anyang in mid-sentence, vigorously patting his shoulder:

"I'm so sorry for making you pay for this, Old Xia!"

Fang Guanghui said with a beaming smile, "I'd never be able to afford such a luxurious suite on my own in my lifetime. I can only hope my son makes it big one day and takes me to live in places like this every day!"

No... I was asking my daughter, why are you interjecting!

And to talk so openly about relying on your son to strike it rich, you indeed have the nerve to say that, what kind of father are you!

Xia Anyang saw that the expression on Fang You next door didn't even change, totally used to the fact his father was such a loser.

[Xia Anyang intermittently begins to sympathize with you, knowledge energy +50]

...

After entering the room, while Xia Nuo was pulling Fang You around to explore, Xia Anyang began planning the sleeping arrangements for the night:

"This suite has a master and a secondary bedroom. The master bedroom has two beds, so Nuo Nuo and I will sleep there. The secondary bedroom has one large bed, so You You, you and your dad will sleep there. The bed is quite big, you shouldn't mind, right?"

"No way! I mind!"

Xia Nuo, who was whispering with Fang You, immediately raised her hand in serious protest upon hearing her dad's room arrangement:

"I heard from Ayu before that daughters should avoid their fathers when they grow up. I can't share a room with dad now!"

Boom!

The words from Xia Nuo struck Xia Anyang like a bolt from the blue, leaving him thoroughly scorched inside out.

Where on earth did you learn this from!

Was it really Ayu who taught you this?

Does she avoid Fang You like she would her father?

Huh? Continue reading on empire

...

Fang You felt the gaze of the elder upon him and instantly felt somewhat wronged.

No, Uncle Xia, don't glare at me, it's no use, this is not related to me!

Of course, Fang You couldn't stay too detached in Xia Nuo and Xia Anyang's father-daughter dispute, he had to chip in with some pleasantries:

"Nuo Nuo, if you can't share a room with Dad, how can you share one with me?"

"Even though we've grown up, we're not sleeping in the same bed, so why can't we?"

Xia Nuo shook her head and swayed as she spoke to Fang You, looking incredibly charming and endearing, "And you made a promise to Aunt Xuan that you'd always keep an eye on me, didn't you?"

Since she had brought up my mom, what more could Fang You say?

All he could do was look to the person in charge, "Well… let's just follow Uncle Xia's arrangements then."

[Xia Anyang thinks, why don't you argue!? Knowledge Energy +100]

Uncle, you can't always expect me to give in to you, you're just too lazy!

Fang You didn't continue to try to persuade, and at this point, Xia Anyang seemed to develop some emotion towards Xia Nuo.

"Nuo Nuo, don't mess around, you're sharing a room with me and that's final."

Xia Anyang spoke sternly, "When we come out to have fun, you must follow Dad's arrangements, otherwise Dad will really get angry… Do you know how much I've sacrificed to come to Qiankun City with you? I rushed to catch the plane without even drinking a sip of water after finishing work, and there's more—"

"No, no, Old Xia, if the kids are willing, just let them share a room, after all, they don't get this chance very often…"

Hey, hey, hey, Nuo Nuo isn't your cabbage, what are you, a pig farmer, blabbering about?

Fang Guanghui scratched his head and then suggested, "Do you think a king-size bed can't fit two people? I don't mind sharing a bed with you... Ah, it's okay, we're so familiar with each other, I don't mind at all…"

"Alright, You You's dad, this has nothing to do with you, so stop chiming in—"

As Xia Anyang was pushing Fang Guanghui away, intending to continue his sermon, an intolerant Xia Nuo finally exploded:

"Dad, how can you be so unreasonable! I even thought it was so cool that you managed to come on time, but had I known, I wouldn't have waited for you from the start! Compared to Uncle Fang, you're way behind!"

Way behind!

Way behind—

Way behind—

Xia Anyang's face turned a visible shade of red at a rate visible to the naked eye, this being the second time that he'd been struck by lightning today, and the blow was bigger than any he had ever taken before.

It's one thing to be inferior to You You, but now you're telling me that I'm even inferior to this Fang Guanghui; isn't that an insult?

He trembled his lips, trying to say something, but then Xia Nuo pushed her suitcase into the twin-bedded master bedroom and didn't come out.

…n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Seeing this, Xia Anyang immediately put on a stern face and was about to go open the door directly, but Fang Guanghui grabbed him, "Ah, come on, Old Xia, we're out here to have fun, let's not spoil the mood…"

At this moment, Fang You also chimed in, "Uncle Xia, let me talk to Nuo Nuo, alright? She's just in a bit of a bad mood today; she knows in her heart that what she's doing isn't right, I'll go and speak with her."

Xia Anyang didn't actually plan to break down the door, and upon hearing Fang You suggest this, he gave up on the idea, now just feeling utterly exhausted.

It was then he suddenly remembered he had no clothes to wear for the next day, so he used this as an excuse to go out and clear his head with a bit of shopping:

"I'm going to the clothing store nearby to buy some clothes."

"Hold on, let's go together, it's not like we have anything better to do…"

"No need, you stay inside."

"Don't be polite with me, we've known each other for so many years…"

Fang Guanghui said, while giving Fang You a knowing look, as if the father and son had reached some sort of tacit agreement.

?

What's with the old man getting signals now?

Even with Mind Catcher Fang You couldn't grasp his father's train of thought.

No wonder he's a man with an E rated comprehensive Talent!
