Becoming a life winner from infancy

Chapter 10: Version 009 Dominant Period



The children participating in this episode of the show totaled 12, and their ages ranged from 2 to 4 years old.

Although Fang You and Xia Nuo were on the younger side, they were not short in stature, especially Fang You.

At 2 years old, thanks to the growth bonus from "Reverse Life," he was nearly as tall as the oldest 4-year-old child, Du Anqi, at a full 99 centimeters.

The program invited three teachers: the crosstalk actor from Deyun Society, Jiang Tianbao, stand-up comedian from Gaoxing Mahua, Zhang Na, and the new generation artist with a friendly smile, Xiao Lu.

As the children entered the classroom one by one, from initially wandering around out of novelty to beginning to look for their parents, they gradually started to pout:

"Mommy... I want mommy... wuwu—"

"Where's my Daddy? Where is Daddy..."

"My granny wuwu—"

The three celebrity teachers were all surprised to see the behavior of Xia Nuo and Fang You:

"These two children are so brave!"

Xiao Lu rested her chin on her hands and smiled sweetly, "I heard they've been childhood friends growing up together, that's why they get along so well..."

Zhang Na suggested, "Later on, we should put them in different classes so they can really learn to adapt to the new environment."

"Wow, Na Na, you're too cruel!"

Xiao Lu pouted and acted cute, looking aggrieved, "If it were up to me, I would never do that; I just love sweets and can't stand the sight of knives, wuwu—"

Oh my, are female celebrities these days all about building their persona like this?

Zhang Na felt goosebumps all over her body.

At this moment, Jiang Tianbao said, "Alright, let's go into the classroom and start the class division ceremony!"

Jiang Tianbao, Zhang Na, and Xiao Lu became teachers Tian Tian, Na Na, and Xiao Lu, each leading four children to establish their class groups.

Xia Nuo was placed in Jiang Tianbao's Tian Tian class, while Fang You ended up in Xiao Lu's Xiao Lu class.

Xiao Lu led the four children of the Xiao Lu class into the small classroom and began the first kindergarten class.

"Alright, the four children of the Xiao Lu class, we are a team now! Before we start our classroom activities, let's do self-introductions to get to know each other a bit. Who wants to go first?"

"I'll go first!"

A little girl dressed in a yukata, her hair styled in a cherry blossom-inspired wind, stepped forward and bowed slightly, her every move exuding the grace of a well-bred young lady.

"Hello everyone, my name is Asai Reina, and I am 3 years old. I love pretty clothes the most..."

Huh, there's a cherry blossom girl here too.

She spoke in Chinese.

"Ling Nai is so cute!" Xiao Lu couldn't resist cute things.

"No, Ling Nai is beautiful first, then cute."

"Cute is how you describe girls who are not pretty enough; Ling Nai is very beautiful and very popular."

Asai Reina held up two fingers with a serious face to Xiao Lu, "I have a whole 20,000 followers on Little Purple Potato!"

"Wow, so many followers! Ling Nai, you're amazing!"

"Yes, Ling Nai is amazing."

Asai Reina put her hands on her hips and nodded, while Xiao Lu clapped, but felt a bit confused inside.

Are kids nowadays so precocious?

Understanding so much at 3 years old...

Following this, another boy eagerly raised his hand:

"My name is Wang Zihan, but you can call me Zi Han. I'm also 3 years old this year! My hobby is..."

Confidently done with his introduction, Wang Zihan then turned to look at Asai Reina with a grin, his eyes reflecting her image.

It was obvious that he was interested in Asai Reina, but she ignored him. However, he wasn't discouraged at all and kept hovering around her.

This kid... looks a bit off.

Born with the natural constitution of a sycophant?

In contrast to Wang Zihan was another boy with sparse hair and a full forehead.

He didn't look at Asai Reina at all and kept fiddling with his pocket.

"Alright, please introduce yourself, young man."

"My name is Zhang Jiahao, I'm two and a half years old now; everyone calls me Hao Ge. I have many guns at home, and my favorite thing is to play with guns!"

"Play with guns?"

In the blink of an eye, while Xiao Lu was still taken aback, Zhang Jiahao suddenly performed a Western quick-draw and pulled out a toy pistol from his pocket, pointing it right at Xiao Lu's temple and fired.

"Bang!"

Xiao Lu was momentarily stunned, then Zhang Jiahao tugged at her sleeve to remind her:

"Xiao Lu Teacher, you've been shot by me now! Play dead!"

Xiao Lu felt numb.

Play dead?

Ah, it's not cute at all doing this!

But the cameras were watching, there was no choice...

Xiao Lu could only play along, pretending to collapse to the ground as if shot.

At this moment, her sense of crisis management as an artist kicked in, her thoughts raced, and she slowly got up, saying:

"Oh no, you've defeated the teacher."

She first satisfied Zhang Jiahao's need to perform, then touched Zhang Jiahao's forehead and taught him:

"But, kids should get along well with each other and you shouldn't point a gun at someone else's head, okay?"

"I know!"

Zhang Jiahao nodded vigorously, then said with a smile, "So I don't shoot kids; I only shoot adults."

"You can't do that to adults either."

Xiao Lu said gravely to Zhang Jiahao, "Think about it; if you point a gun at Daddy and Mommy's heads and shoot, will Daddy and Mommy be happy?"

"They will be, because that's how my dad plays with me."

"He points a gun at your head too?"

"Yes, whenever I don't call him Daddy, he points a gun at my head and makes me call him Daddy."

Zhang Jiahao held his big head high and said proudly, "But I'm better at shooting games than he is, I often beat him in duels, forcing him to call me 'Brother Hao'."

"Ah?"

Truly, they are the gems that stood out in the fiercely competitive auditions...

Such loving fathers and filial sons, such a cradle of talent!

So how exactly are these shows edited to appear so ordinary on TV?

"Fang You, 2 years old, nickname You You, likes music, can play the drum set."

Although Fang You's self-introduction was simple, Xiao Lu liked it very much.

Yep yep, simple is the cutest!

"It seems like little friend You You is a little musician!"

After completing their self-introductions, the children's first lesson was a children's drama class.

"Kids, do you know the story of 'The Tortoise and the Hare'?" Teacher Xiao Lu started the topic.

"I know, I know!" Wang Zihan raised his hand excitedly.

"Then, Zi Han, could you tell everyone what this story is about—"

"In the end, the tortoise wins the race!" Wang Zihan loved showing off in class.

"Did you, did you finish telling it?"

"Yep."

Wang Zihan nodded vigorously and then turned to smile cheerfully at Asai Reina, who was sitting to the side, fiddling with her smartwatch.

"Oh my, Zi Han is really great..."

Xiao Lu clapped her hands and called out, "So, how about we play the roles from 'The Tortoise and the Hare'? Ta-da-da-da—"

Xiao Lu brought out a cute rabbit costume and asked with a smile, "Tell me, who wants to play the rabbit?"

"Me, me, me!"

Everyone eagerly raised their hands, even the usually poised Ling Nai was somewhat tempted.

She focused on the beautiful rabbit costume in Xiao Lu's hands, her eyes bright and attentive.

"Let's set up a game rule. Let's race to see who's the fastest, and whoever is the fastest will play the rabbit. The slowest will be the tortoise. What do you say, good idea?"

"Good!"

The children nodded.

Although the turtle is the winner in the story of the race, everyone still wanted to be the rabbit.

Nobody wanted to be the turtle.

Fang You didn't want to be the turtle either.

So in the race that followed, he ran into first place.

Asai Reina, wearing clogs and being a delicate girl already, quite obviously finished last.

"It seems that You You is in first place. He ran so fast."

"Then, how about Ling Nai play the tortoise?" Teacher Xiao Lu offered the tortoise costume.

"Don't want to…"

Asai Reina stepped forward shyly, "Ling Nai wants to play the rabbit."

She clung stubbornly to the rabbit costume in Xiao Lu's hands.

"But, you lost the race, we should follow the rules of the game, right?"

"But Ling Nai doesn't want to play the tortoise. Ling Nai wants to be the rabbit!"

Asai Reina quickly mustered her emotions and said tearfully, "Ling Nai is a pretty girl, she can't play a tortoise…"

So Xiao Lu had no choice but to turn and plea with Fang You.

"You You, look, Ling Nai is crying. You're a boy, let her take your place and be the rabbit, will you please?"

"Don't want to."

Reincarnated and you're still trying to emotionally manipulate me?

I am the sky, and I bow to no one!

"Why should I play the tortoise when I won the race?"

"But, but you see, Ling Nai really wants to play the rabbit... She's crying now."

"If rules can be broken just like that, what's the point of making them?"

Fang You's small eyes were filled with big doubts, "Teacher Xiao, is the adult world really so capricious?"

Of course, Fang You was well aware that the adult world was indeed that capricious...

Rules are chains for the weak and tools for the strong.

But it didn't matter.

Fang You was in the strong phase of his 'Reverse Life'!

If adults were going to spin a beautiful fairy tale for children about everyone following the rules they set up.

Then they should execute those rules fairly!

"Ah... this..."

Xiao Lu was completely baffled by Fang You's question. After hesitating for a while, she chose to compromise and looked at Asai Reina with a warm smile.

"Indeed... it's better to follow the rules, right? What do you say, Ling Nai?"

Seeing that she still couldn't play the rabbit, Ling Nai was very upset and immediately threw a tantrum:

"Not playing anymore, I don't want to play!"

Ling Nai threw the turtle costume away and sat in her chair, sulking.

Wang Zihan immediately stepped forward, picked up the turtle costume, and tried to appease her with a small tree costume: "Ling Nai, I'll play the tortoise, and you play the little tree, how about that?"

"Whimper... no, go away!"

Asai Reina kicked Wang Zihan several times, and Zhang Jiahao found it quite entertaining as he clapped his hands and watched the commotion.

After taking her frustration out on Wang Zihan, Asai Reina rubbed her eyes and tearfully pointed at Fang You, saying:

"Fang You! If you won't let me play the rabbit, then don't ever think about playing with me again!"
