Becoming a life winner from infancy-Chapter 504 - 400 Who says the Great Emperor is all talk and no action on paper

...

When Asai Reina asked him, Fang You was slightly stunned, but soon recovered his usual demeanor.

"You haven’t spent much time with Nuo Nuo, so you don’t understand the Nuo Nuo of today."

Fang You explained:

"Her thoughts are oftentimes quite whimsical, and if proper plans aren’t laid out in advance, things can unfold in unpredictable directions, and then—"

"Stop, stop!"

Asai Reina made a silencing gesture, "I, I mean, so when are you planning to ask her to go shopping?"

...

After a brief hesitation, Fang You’s swiftly processing mind gave the answer:

"I need to sort out various plans again tonight—"

"If you don’t make a decision now, you’ll never go! Aren’t you free this Saturday? Just go ask her!"

"What, what, is You You starting to ask her out?"

Luo Xianyu also woke up from her nap at this point, wiping the drool from her mouth, then showing an expectant expression towards Fang You:

"Remember to call me along then, I’ll be your wingman!"

"No, Yu, you can’t go with them!"

Asai Reina seriously advised, "Otherwise it’ll be just like any other shopping trip!"

"Why? I can be of assistance!"

Luo Xianyu immediately frowned, and her doubts about Asai Reina deepened. "Hey, you’re not trying to steal the title of best wingman from me, are you?"

"How could that be! Neither of us should go, just keeping an eye on you guys will suffice."

Asai Reina seriously said, "Going out alone as a man and a woman is actually a very ambiguous thing."

"What’s so big about that, I often go out alone with Nuo Nuo."

Fang You replied, "and it doesn’t feel ambiguous at all."

"Then, when was the last time you went shopping together?"

"During the Spring Festival this year, on the twenty-ninth of the twelfth lunar month."

Fang You said, "Back then Uncle Xia had injured his leg and was resting at home, so I went with Nuo Nuo to buy New Year goods, paste couplets, and visit relatives. We were practically together all the time."

"You remember it so clearly…"

Asai Reina was somewhat speechless.

Isn’t that pretty much like being a son-in-law?

But perhaps it’s precisely because the relationship went directly from friendship to familiarity, bypassing romantic elements, that it feels so awkward.

"However, since you often go out with Nuo Nuo, why can’t you just invite her shopping..."

"I’m just preparing more thoroughly."

"No, no, that’s a lie!"

At that moment, Luo Xianyu pointed at Fang You’s face and said:

"I know the reason you can’t bring yourself to invite Nuo Nuo!"

"Because, you’re really not used to asking Nuo Nuo out!"

"All along, it’s been Nuo Nuo who invites you to do all sorts of things, hasn’t it?"

Oof…

A rare look of strain appeared on Fang You’s face.

"If you ask why I know—"

Luo Xianyu gave a thumbs up, pointed at herself, then struck a cocky pose: "Because, I am the same!"

Tsk...

[You never thought you’d be outmaneuvered by Luo Xianyu one day, ah, such a rebellious daughter! Knowledge energy +1000]

"So it turns out... it’s usually Nuo Nuo inviting you out to play, no wonder you can’t bring yourself to do it."

"But there’s really nothing difficult about it…"

Fang You had indeed taken the initiative to invite Xia Nuo out before.

Three years ago, when Nuo Nuo’s grandmother was critically ill, Fang You had taken her to stargaze to cheer her up, even showing her the "Domain Expansion" super talent.

But that was something he couldn’t share with them.

However, that being said, being underestimated really stung…

Did these girls really think that I, Fang You, am just an armchair strategist?

Fang You took over the conversation, displaying his "Uncle Emperor swagger," his gaze shimmering a divine light, with a backdrop glowing like a stand-in king.

"I’ll ask Nuo Nuo out to go shopping this weekend tonight."

"Good, good, good! We’ll be waiting for your good news!"

Luo Xianyu immediately got excited, "I am the biggest supporter of You You and Nuo Nuo!"

"Oh…" Asai Reina looked skeptical.

Anyway...

We’ll observe how things unfold.

But I’ve only just reunited with them today, why did I start playing such an intense role so suddenly!

Asai Reina has been mature since her youth, so she understood the ways of the world from a young age.

Besides Fang You and Xia Nuo, she didn’t really like to hang out with kids her own age, instead she often interacted more with adults, in addition to having rich experience as a voice actor, familiar with many anime scripts.

Hence, she had seen much about the relationship between childhood friends in numerous anime scripts.

Because they were too familiar, they often failed to transition to romantic relationships, sometimes feeling more like relatives and lacking the nourishment of love.

Thinking that life would just go on day by day like this, only to be suddenly swept off their feet by a deus ex machina character...

Of course, anime is just anime!

In real life, especially for childhood friends as close as them, it’s not entirely without romantic thoughts, after all, they had engaged in such close interactions and manners.Now it seems that even if Nuo Nuo isn’t aware of this meaning yet, but You You...

You You...

Asai Reina silently sighed.

After school that afternoon, Xia Nuo was ready to call Luo Xianyu to the cafeteria for lunch as usual, but she was turned down.

"I’m sorry, Nuo Nuo!"

Luo Xianyu pursed her lips, "I have important matters to deal with Reina today, go eat with You You!"

...

Xia Nuo stared at Luo Xianyu for a long time, her scrutinizing gaze making Luo Xianyu feel somewhat guilty.

Luo Xianyu immediately stood at attention feeling guilty and averted her eyes under Xia Nuo’s scrutiny.

"Alright, you and Reina work on your relationship, and don’t bully Reina."

"Mmhmm, got it!"

Xian Yu, upon hearing this, ran off with a thousand thanks as if she had been granted a great pardon.

Xia Nuo watched Xian Yu’s departing figure, pouting and frowning in thought, just as she left the classroom deep in thought, she bumped into Fang You who was walking by.

"Ah."

Fang You grabbed Xia Nuo’s arm and steadied her very gentlemanly, "Be careful, you."

Upon seeing Fang You, Xia Nuo couldn’t contain her burgeoning desire to share, and immediately grabbed Fang You’s collar, shaking it, "You You, You You, I have to tell you something!"

The girl tiptoed and whispered softly into the boy’s ear, and the boy listened to her bizarre ideas as he would any other day.

At the same time, he also harbored a special thought.

"Hm... Yu wants to meet alone with Reina?"

Fang You feigned surprise in response to Xia Nuo’s query.

"Right? Isn’t it strange?"

Xia Nuo complained, "It was like this during the lunch break. After we parted, I couldn’t find either of them. Honestly, I’m a bit worried they might start fighting."

"They won’t."

Fang You said, "Although Yu and Reina seem to love quarreling, they actually have a good relationship. You see, Yu likes the voice actor of Shiina Nao so much because they share some common ground."

"If it’s just the two of them, that’d be fine."

Xia Nuo pointed at Fang You’s nose as she spoke, "But it’s different when you’re involved."

"Me?"

"Yes."

Xia Nuo nodded her head, "Reina has liked you since childhood, but Yu has disliked Reina liking you since childhood. If this fundamental issue isn’t resolved, they will still end up arguing every time they meet."

"What do you think the solution should be?"

"I think... well, let Yu compromise a bit."

Xia Nuo considered, "Yu’s possessiveness over you is too strong. She doesn’t allow any other girl to get close to you, apart from me. I don’t think that’s good. After all, it’s your matter, and she didn’t even ask for your opinion—"

"I don’t mind it."

Fang You thought for a while and looked up at Xia Nuo, "Then, what about you?"

"Me?"

"..."

Fang You paused, "Yes, you. How do you feel about other girls getting close to me?"

"I think Reina is okay, but I’ll need to check on the other girls."

Xia Nuo thought, "Based on what you said earlier after class, that girl Ai Wei from your class seems to have a strong opinion about you. I should take the chance to get to know her, to see whether she’s just after your body or truly appreciates your talent—"

No, this is taking the wrong direction. Enjoy new adventures from novelbuddy

As everyone knows, Emperor You You is renowned for his decisive actions and efficient handling of matters.

It couldn’t be possible that he wouldn’t be able to get a word out in a whole chapter.

Finally, Fang You couldn’t help but interrupt the various topics Xia Nuo was navigating wildly.

"Nuo Nuo, let’s not talk about this, I have something else to tell you."

"What is it?"

First, hold your breath and concentrate, then slightly adjust your emotions.

Fang You was not adept at initiating invitations with Xia Nuo.

Not because they weren’t familiar.

Rather because they were too familiar.

So, once he asked the question, the astute Nuo Nuo would definitely realize this and suspect he might have some particular motive.

Especially since he really did have a special motive, which wouldn’t be easy to explain when asked.

In their long years of growing up, Xia Nuo had hardly ever deceived Fang You about anything.

Similarly, Fang You had never deceived Xia Nuo.

At most, they both might have some minor secrets, but most of the time, they were open enough to talk about almost anything.

Just take it as a usual greeting-style inquiry.

It’s okay, you are the Great Emperor of humans, Fang You—

At this moment, none of the contingency plans in Fang You’s mind followed his thoughts.

He just slightly raised his head, and Xia Nuo leaned in directly, meeting his gaze:

"Hm—so what’s up, you seem very serious."

"It’s nothing, just..."

Fang You touched his nose, then said softly, "Do you have any plans for the weekend?"

Nuo Nuo’s weekends are usually spent with me, other times she’s busy building aircraft. Basically, it’s these two activities she does more often...

But if I suggest it, she will certainly go along with it.

"Ah? Yes, I do."

Xia Nuo nodded her head, and Fang You couldn’t remember how to respond to that, suddenly freezing.

[It seems you’ve exchanged the courage of a lifetime for a lifetime of introversion, such is the enlightenment of youth, Youth Energy +1000]

...

"...Is it something important?"

"Of course it’s important!"

Xia Nuo jumped excitedly, "I haven’t done it in a long time!"

"What is so importan—"

"Let’s go shopping this weekend!"

...

Seeing Fang You’s somewhat shocked expression, Xia Nuo tilted her head and asked in confusion:

"Ah, is that what you were asking about?"

"..."

"Nothing, just asking casually."

"Then, will you go shopping with me?"

Xia Nuo said, "Yu and Reina aren’t interested in aircraft parts, so I can only ask you to accompany me."

Fang You shook his head, "That works, since I’ve nothing else planned. Let’s go shopping then."

"Yay, You You is the best! Love you to bits! A kiss muamua!"

"Not in this kind of situation—"

Fang You continuously resisted Xia Nuo’s entanglement, but as his thoughts began to stabilize, he realized this scenario was indeed one of his pre-planned outcomes, and he suddenly felt back in control.

Very good, everything was under his control.

Who says humans have no great emperor!
