Becoming a life winner from infancy

As dark clouds began to gather and swirl overhead, Fang You was accompanying Xia Nuo and Luo Xianyu as they hunted for the rare, steel-colored Paru - the Red Armor Heracross in the forest.

The Heracross could only be found within the forest, and capturing this SR-level creature required a Master Ball.

With the sky growing increasingly dim and the oppressive humidity more prominent, Fang You looked up to find the sky had darkened with heavy clouds.

The timid Luo Xianyu felt that things were looking bad and tugged at Xia Nuo, reminding her, "It's going to rain soon, Nuo Nuo, let's head back."

"But I haven't caught the [Red Armor Heracross] yet, I'm almost done! Just a little longer!"

Xia Nuo called out to Fang You nearby, "You You, get ready to use the Master Ball!"

"We can't keep playing now."

Fang You put down the Paru device in his hands and said to Xia Nuo, "We should head back."

"But this Paru is really hard to catch, just one more try, please, just let me try once more..."

Xia Nuo clutched at Fang You's hand, looking pitiful and pleading, "Just one more time."

"No, it's too dangerous if we don't go back now."

Fang You said, "I'll come with you to catch it next time, you'll definitely catch it."

"Alright..."

Seeing Fang You put it that way, Xia Nuo no longer insisted on her own idea.

Without a doubt, this time the wild Paru could refresh to produce a differently colored Paru, all thanks to her own efforts as a [Paru Lucky Star].

However, Nuo Nuo had no idea about this, which is why she felt it was such a pity.

Feeling somewhat dejected at being refused, Xia Nuo suddenly heard Luo Xianyu exclaim sharply before reaching the main road.

Luo Xianyu covered her head, "Seems like it has already started to come down."

Drip, drip-drip-drip.

Accompanied by distant rumbling thunder from within the mountains.

The summer rain began to splatter, quickly intensifying.

"This is bad! We need to run for it!"

"Wait, wait a minute..."

The three little ones ran through the forest in the rain.

With the downpour about to become more severe, running back to the mountaintop or directly down the mountain was not a smart choice.

Fang You looked around and spotted a small cabin in the forest, immediately calling out to Xia Nuo and Luo Xianyu:

"Hey, let's take shelter from the rain over there!"

"Uh... okay!"

Under Fang You's guidance, the two kids ran to the front of the cabin, which looked intact from a distance, but up close it was clear it was dilapidated and neglected, somewhat reminiscent of an old country wooden house and definitely not a place that seemed inhabited.

Looks like a haunted house!

Luo Xianyu clung tightly to Fang You's sleeve without letting go, and Xia Nuo turned to look at her good companion.

Fang You was not afraid; he pushed the wooden door open, the hinges creaking, and beckoned Xia Nuo and Luo Xianyu to enter. Both children, fearful, followed Fang You into the house.

The daylight outside had suddenly darkened immensely, and the fierce rain showed no sign of stopping.

This small house was called a cabin, but it wasn't much different from a gazebo. Aside from the roof that could block the rain, the doors and windows had many gaps through which the storm wind blew the rain inside.

The frightened Luo Xianyu held tightly onto Fang You's arm, and even the usually fearless Xia Nuo now sought refuge in Fang You's embrace.

"You You, are there ghosts in the haunted house?"

"No."

"Really? There aren't any?"

"No, don't be scared. We'll still get hit by the rain here, let's move further inside."

"Eh, wah... don't leave Ayu behind."

"I'm not leaving you."

Fang You led the two children further into the cabin to take shelter from the rain.

Inside were piles of old wooden planks and various pieces of wood, plastic sheets, snakeskin bags, and other junk, with no household items, suggesting it wasn't a place where people lived.

Although the Gu Mountain area wasn't exactly deep in the wilderness,

"Okay, you can open your eyes now."

"Water got in my eyes, I can't open them. You You, help me wipe them—"

Xia Nuo was calling out loudly for help.

Without hesitation, Fang You took off his T-shirt and handed it to Xia Nuo to dry her eyes, and also to dry off both her and Ayu.

As a result, Fang You's T-shirt became almost twice as heavy as before.

But that didn't matter since Fang You had the Talent of [Extraordinary Wrist Strength].

Twist—

Fang You wrung out the water from his shirt with vigor and strength!

"You You is so strong, wring out my clothes too, they're all wet!"

"I, mine too..."

The two girls also wanted Fang You to wring out their soaked clothes.

"That's not necessary! Just twist the corners, and they'll dry out!"

Fang You, Xia Nuoluo, and Luo Xianyu tidied themselves up a bit, then the three of them sat in the corner of the cabin, waiting for the rain to stop so they could call for help from home.

"There seems to be no signal here, can't make a call with the smart device."

Fang You looked at Xia Nuo and Luo Xianyu, "What about your watches?"

"It's the same for me and Ayu..."

Xia Nuo broke out in a nervous sweat, "We're not going to get trapped here for a trillion years, are we?"

"Wah, Nuo Nuo, stop it, I'm so scared!"

Luo Xianyu hugged her knees, shaking with fear.

The rain outside was torrential, and distant peals of thunder added to the concern, suggesting no end in sight.

The restless Xia Nuo stood up and began sifting through the pile of random objects.

"Nuo Nuo, what are you looking for?"

"Ta-da! Look at this!"

Xia Nuo had found [Short Sticks]*3!

She excitedly distributed the sticks to Fang You and Luo Xianyu.
