"Kindergarten is so much fun! Let's go to kindergarten every day from now on!"
Xia Nuo cheerfully shared with Fang You the new things that had happened in class today and the new friends she had made:
"I've made friends with the children from the everyday class! There's Ayu, Rice Ball, and Orange..."
Is your class some kind of foodie alliance or what...
"You You, did you make any new friends in your class?"
Fang You pinched Xia Nuo's little nose: "If there's nothing to talk about, you don't have to talk."
Xia Nuo, with her nose pinched, made a funny sound: "Don't worry, I'll introduce all my new friends to you when the time comes! Just like Ayu."
"Okay... then thank you."
Fang You released Xia Nuo's nose.
Making friends was indeed a little bit more difficult than Fang You had imagined.
After all, I am an adult! It's still too childish to ask little kids to be friends.
It would be best if everyone were like Nuo Nuo, taking the initiative to get close to me, making friends who come knocking at my door, saving me effort and worry!
However, the reality was that his Little Deer class was filled with an abundance of talent—
A soldier king, a princess with princess syndrome, and one with a born knack for bootlicking.
In less than half a day, Fang You had scolded each of them once, so becoming friends was definitely out of the question.
But during lunch, he did meet a few kids with nice personalities, like the big sister Du Anqi, who was in charge of maintaining order in the lunch line.
Xuan Xuan was a very enthusiastic little boy who kept earnestly offering corn to Fang You during lunch.
As for the girl called Ayu, although she was a bit of a crybaby, she looked soft and sticky and was cute.
All potential candidates for friendship!
The children gradually became accustomed to their surroundings and no longer cried for their parents.
When it was time for the post-lunch nap, the children went to bed to sleep under the teacher's guidance.
Because they played hard in the morning, most of the kids quickly fell asleep, but Fang You, with the perk of "Unflagging Energy," didn't have that many naps to take.
So he lay there quietly, waiting for the nap time to end.
Fang You heard the rustling of Xia Nuo turning over in the bed next to him and couldn't help but glance at her.
She happened to be looking at Fang You as well, and their eyes met.
"You You, are you asleep?"
Fang You patiently answered Xia Nuo's question, "Not yet... why?"
"I can't sleep," Xia Nuo said.
"Why can't you sleep?"
"I miss Mom and Dad."
Xia Nuo said it very softly.
Ah?
Xia Nuo's answer surprised Fang You quite a bit.
The Xia Nuo who seemed to have been enjoying herself since entering kindergarten also had times when she was vulnerable...
I thought she was always carefree.
Fang You suddenly became interested: "Why didn't you say you missed Mom and Dad when we parted earlier?"
"Because at that time, I didn't miss them," Xia Nuo said.
"And now you suddenly do?"
"Mhm."
Wang Zihan was already imagining the scene of the competition's outcome.
[Sorry, Zi Han, you are truly the most amazing]
[Zi Han, you're so great. Ling Nai wants to be your friend]
Ehehehe...
Wang Zihan rubbed his hands together, eager to try.
"Now, let's start a small experiment."
Teacher Zhang Na, clad in a white lab coat, led the twelve bouncing children into a white room.
The room had two square tables, on which sat a transparent glass tank and various small items, such as cups, sticks, stones, and tape.
Inside the tank stood a tall glass tube, at the bottom of which was a plastic bottle filled with rainbow-colored paint.
"Now we're going to have a little competition. You'll have to figure out how to retrieve this rainbow bottle from the glass tube."
"The team that completes the task first will get a reward for each member!"
"Okay!"
As soon as they heard there was a reward, the children quickly sprang into action.
Xia Nuo, wearing a blue team uniform, happily grabbed Ayu's hand and rushed to the red table.
Fang You hurriedly called out, "Nuo Nuo, you got it backward!"
Xia Nuo led Ayu back.
Staring at the tall glass tube, the children stood in front of the table, scratching their heads and pondering solutions.
Some kids directly tried to dig with their hands, others attempted to poke with sticks, but all were unable to reach the little bottle at the bottom.
Zhang Jiahao, also on the Blue Team, directly tried to shake it.
"Ay, Big Bro Hao, stop shaking it! I'm getting dizzy!"
"Don't worry, I have Super Flame Fist, just watch me smash it to pieces!"
Fan Fan, a fellow kid, swung his fist, his expression contorting at a visible pace.
"Ugh... Ugh, wahhh, ouch!"
Zhang Jiahao held his forehead and sighed, "Too bad, I didn't bring my big gun over."
"If I had my big gun, I could blast the glass tube with a single shot!"
"Alright, stop chatting and start thinking of a solution..."
Asai Reina, seeing Fang You calling his team members together for a tactical discussion while her own side was in chaos, couldn't help feeling anxious.
"Don't worry, don't worry, the solution is very simple."
Wang Zihan smoothed back his bangs, striking a cool pose, "Such a simple experiment, my dad already did it with me."
"Well then, spit it out, how do you do it!"
Yes! Ling Nai is pulling on me to move!
Wang Zihan, basking in the joy of being approached by Asai Reina, couldn't help but smile smugly.
The principle of this experiment is extremely simple!
It involves knowledge of buoyancy.
Since plastic is less dense than water, it will float in water!
My dad said, this is physics knowledge only middle schoolers would know!
Such profound knowledge, I'm afraid in the whole kindergarten only I—
As Wang Zihan was enjoying his self-satisfaction, a shout came from Big Bro Hao:
"Hahaha, I got it!"
