Becoming a life winner from infancy

1. Holding hands with Xia Nuo for intimate interactions, showing everyone their unbreakable and indestructible relationship;

2. Proactively raising his hand to answer questions and display his amazing intelligence, earning the affection and hugs of Teacher Taozi;

3. Establishing his authority by telling various scary ghost stories that made the children wet their beds during naptime;

However, it turned out that actions 2 and 3 were somewhat conflicting, as Fang You\'s storytelling sessions, which made too many children cry, led to criticism from Teacher Taozi.

While reaping emotional energy, Fang You also unlocked some hidden talents.

For instance, "Arm Wrestling Celebrity," "Seesaw Dominator," "Graffiti Pro," "Taiko Master," "Little Red Flower Collector," "Clean Plate Ambassador," "Peach Assistant," and so on...

Through observation, Fang You found that the bonuses provided by these hidden talents could mainly be divided into three types:

One type improved physical, intellectual, and charm attributes. These talents relied mainly on repeating a certain action, such as winning a certain number of arm-wrestling matches or spending many hours on the seesaw.

For Fang You, the improvement in attributes felt rather abstract; the increase in these values didn\'t bring a qualitative change that could be clearly felt—he didn\'t suddenly become strong enough to lift his father with one hand, or instantly become a super brain capable of calculating three-digit multiplications.

After all, Fang You was both a system user and a Reincarnator, and the advantage of being a Reincarnator had not yet been overshadowed by system attribute bonuses, so he didn\'t have much of a real sense of them.

Moreover, he wasn\'t at a high enough growth level to unlock his numerical attribute panel, so he couldn\'t clearly know how much stronger he was compared to an ordinary person. So there wasn\'t much to say about that.

In summary, higher levels definitely didn\'t hurt...

The second type was professional experience in specialized fields like music and art.

These talents required participation in relevant professional activities, such as graffiti drawing or cooking.

Meanwhile, Fang You needed to achieve some accomplishments in these activities to have a chance at unlocking talents, like winning first place in a drawing competition.

This meant that one needed to first learn and accumulate experience and rankings before possibly gaining talents.

But if I am born without talent, how can I ensure my success in competitions? That was an issue.

Fang You hadn\'t undergone specialized training in these areas, mainly relying on the talent "Rhythmic Mastery" to activate his musical abilities and focusing on playing his drum set.

He would learn about other abilities after getting tired of the drums.

The third type, well, it could be considered a special enhancement of a functional nature.

These talents varied greatly and were more like easter eggs, with unlocking methods similar to the first type of attribute gains—by accumulating progress in certain actions, but without any particular pattern or logic, such as—

Persisting in the clean plate campaign for 100 days, slightly increasing the Growth Energy obtained from consumed food;

Accumulating 30 hugs and kisses from Teacher Taozi, slightly increasing attraction to older members of the opposite sex;

Ah, there\'s not much to say about these abilities; it all depends on fate, and Fang You hadn\'t deliberately set out to do anything.

Overall, hidden talents were mainly just extras; the key lay in the improvement of the growth level.

The talents gained from rising growth levels were either truly strong or caused changes to the system\'s functional mechanics, so they were a priority.

[Current Growth Level: 6 (19310/50000)]

Looking at the less than half-filled level energy bar, Fang You was certain that it would take quite a bit of time to raise his growth level this time.

But as time passed, other problems followed.

Day by day, it became increasingly difficult for Fang You to extract Emotional Energy from the familiar little friends and adults around him.

Take Luo Xianyu, the second-most familiar friend in the kindergarten, for example.

The little Ayu who liked Nuo Nuo the most.

Although there can\'t be two suns in the sky, Luo Xianyu\'s heart has always had room for only Xia Nuo.

But it must be admitted that since the Children\'s Day talent show, Luo Xianyu\'s hostility towards Fang You had decreased significantly.

The most direct manifestation was that Fang You\'s usual interactions and hugs with Xia Nuo hardly made Luo Xianyu jealous anymore. Plus, Xia Nuo always valued Luo Xianyu as a good friend and included her in playing house.

Ayu might have gotten used to Fang You\'s presence, and although he got used to competing for Nuo Nuo\'s attention with Fang You, the system\'s emotional fluctuation value rarely jumped anymore.

Of course, this does not rule out another possibility:

Ayu\'s envy had probably gotten tired of expressing itself.

If you always use the same tricks to play with someone\'s emotions, they might indeed get upset and jealous at the beginning.

But as time goes by, once the other person realizes that no matter what they do, they cannot change the situation, they will enter a state of learned helplessness.

Learned helplessness refers to a psychological state where an individual, after undergoing a certain kind of learning experience, when faced with uncontrollable situations, forms a cognition that no matter how hard they try, they cannot change the outcome of events, leading them to give up trying.

Unless you\'re the kind of supreme bootlicker who still can\'t let go of someone after a decade of being strung along.

A bootlicker is a rather fascinating creature, whose most magical trait is:

Even if you do nothing, they can generate emotional value all by themselves.

Their emotional value seems infinite and grows deeper over the years, becoming increasingly self-indulgent in their delusion, falling into an abyss from which they can never recover.

Ah, speaking of which, Fang You couldn\'t help but miss another\'s presence.

If only Zi Han could have attended kindergarten with me!

Wang Zihan still seems to be living in his shadow, with a very prominent online presence.

When Fang You posted a drumming video, he immediately uploaded one of him playing the piano;

When Fang You showcased his drawing skills, he followed up with a video of himself learning sketching;

When Fang You interacted with Ling Nai in a video online, he, he just—

He had his mom post a video of him folding stars, hinting to Ling Nai that he would make that as a birthday gift for her.

This video sparked quite a discussion online.

[Our Zi Han really doesn\'t like to lose.]

[Keep it up, Zi Han!]

[I feel so sorry for our Zi Han.]

[Brother Zi Han, just stop, would you delete it, I don\'t mind, but my friend is breaking down, he seems to have seen his younger self, I\'m really okay]

[I believe with Zi Han\'s perseverance, he will surely make Ling Nai notice him.]

[What? Zi Han folding stars should be preparing to give them to You You, right?]

[Forget Ling Nai already, Zi Han, you should be with You You.]

The efforts of Wang Zihan made the well-aware netizens feel very sorry for him. Everyone understood but didn\'t say it out loud, always leaving encouraging comments for Wang Zihan.

And just like that, Wang Zihan\'s follower count soared, and his popularity slowly rallied, with a momentum close to catching up with Fang You\'s.

It must be said that in this abstract world of today, anything is possible.

Fang You re-planned his Emotional Energy collection strategy and thought it was time to make some new friends.

New friends, fresh and tender, able to provide even more Emotional Energy.

What to do next is, of course, needless to say.

Big brain, activate!

Fang You decided to make a call and asked Nuo Nuo out to play.

With Nuo Nuo by his side, making friends for Fang You was a very simple matter.
