015 I just want to play the snare drum

Throughout his growth, Fang You always persisted in his musical studies, and among the instruments his parents bought for him, he held a special fondness for the drum set.

Every time his parents picked him up, he would go to the music training center in the neighborhood to learn how to play the drums.

It had nothing to do with system tasks; Fang You just really loved playing the drums!

He didn't have the conditions in his past life, but in this life, he had the time and the spare energy to learn what he loved.

Fang You was immersed in the dynamic rhythms of the drum set!

[You are playing the drums, Rhythmic Experience +1, Rhythmic Experience +1]

[Your drum set level has broken through, unlocking a hidden talent: Rhythm Master]

[Rhythm Master: Enhanced learning ability for percussion instruments, Rhythmic Experience +50]

[Rhythmic Mastery: lv1—>lv2]

[Level 2 Rhythm: Possesses accurate and stable sense of beat—including the ability to distinguish different rhythms, and to remember the original beat amidst special accent changes]

Through persistent drumming, Fang You's sense of rhythm advanced to level 2.

At the moment he unlocked the rhythm level, Fang You felt as though he was entering a slow-motion bullet time.

However, it was only a fleeting moment.

When Fang You snapped back to reality and continued drumming, the drumming patterns in his mind became clearer than before.

Every beat was like a visualized dynamic note, continuously bouncing around in his brain.

I rock! I'm really awesome!

Fang You played the drums with even more gusto.

After practicing today's lessons, Fang You waited in the hall for his mother, Chen Xuan, to pick him up.

Meanwhile, a loud piano sound suddenly came from the room next door.

"Dang dang dang, dang!"

"Nuo Nuo, pay attention and learn, what the teacher just taught you isn't like this..."

Xia Nuo was practicing piano in the piano room next door.

Xia Nuo and Fang You walked hand in hand on the path home.

"You You, look at this."

"Ayu gave me these stickers, they're the Jasmine Fairy series..."

Xia Nuo excitedly showed her sticker collection to Fang You, not caring whether he understood or not; she just wanted to share her happiness.

Seeing Xia Nuo's face glowing with an innocent smile, carefree and joyful, Fang You remembered the lecturing he had heard in the classroom and couldn't help but ask:

"Nuo Nuo, do you find learning piano fun?"

"It's really fun!"

Xia Nuo nodded vigorously, her eyes sparkling.

"Then, do you ever feel pressure?"

"What's pressure?" Xia Nuo tilted her head.

"I mean... well, if the teacher compares you to someone else, do you feel unhappy?"

"Hmm... not really."

Xia Nuo shook her head,

"And if I'm not happy... just do something that makes me happy, and then I'll feel better, right?"

"Ah..."

"Right? Right?" Xia Nuo blinked.

Fang You gently nodded.

It was such a simple concept.

It seemed that many adults couldn't even do this.

Since he came out of the womb, Fang You had rarely seen Xia Nuo enveloped in negative emotions.

Of course, she did cry and make a fuss occasionally, but after doing so, she would find something to occupy herself and ease her mood.

Being able to manage emotions stably and having such a strong skill for self-regulation was also a form of innate talent.

Thinking about it, to watch Xia Nuo grow up happily like this would be very interesting.

Ah, though saying this might be taking Uncle Xia's place a bit...

But it truly was the joy of a father raising a daughter!

Watching Fang You and Xia Nuo talk hand in hand, the atmosphere of childhood innocence delighted Chen Xuan.

She always felt that her child Fang You, although very smart from a young age, was somewhat of a loner.

Usually, even if he was with other children, he rarely showed a smile.

As if born with some burden of pressure, he seldom had the look of pure innocence.

Regarding Fang You's condition, Chen Xuan had also sought expert advice.

She once worried that her child had prodigy syndrome and had specifically taken him to the hospital for an examination.

Experts say that many precocious child prodigies are naturally like that from birth

However, Xia Nuo was an exception in Fang You's life.

She could bring emotional fluctuations to Fang You, and he enjoyed being with her.

This was probably the influence of growing up together from a young age...

"By the way, Nuo Nuo and You You, Children's Day is coming soon, and Teacher Taozi said that every child has to prepare a performance for the talent show."

"You can team up with friends, or you can perform solo. Do you two have any thoughts?"

...

A performance required for every child in the junior class?

Kids nowadays really face intense competition!

But it's okay, this is also an opportunity to harvest Emotional Energy.

"I can perform on the drums."

Fang You felt that just practicing drums at the training classes was not exciting enough.

It was time to show off his own skills!

Right, it was to harvest Emotional Energy and to improve the growth level.

I am just a ruthless tool for the system!

"You want to perform on the drums alone..."

[Chen Xuan seems a bit disappointed with your response, Emotional Energy +3]

?

My son showing off his musical talent in kindergarten, parents envious, teachers commendable, fans growing, is that something trivial?

I know, I know, you want me to join in a program with Nuo Nuo, right?

But I insist on playing the drums!

"Then, does Nuo Nuo have any ideas?"

"Auntie Chen, Auntie Chen!"

At this moment, Xia Nuo raised her small hand and asked eagerly, "I have a question, I want to ask Auntie Chen!"

"What's the matter, Nuo Nuo?"

Xia Nuo stood with her hands behind her back, tilting her head with a puzzled face:

"Isn't Children's Day supposed to be the children's festival?"

"Ah?"

"Why do children have to perform for the adults, shouldn't it be the adults performing for the children instead?"

"This..."

Chen Xuan suddenly found herself at a loss for words, "Well, Auntie thinks you have a point..."

Fang You also thought Nuo Nuo's thinking was very insightful.

Right, why is it always children performing on Children's Day?

Isn't that just the children putting on a festival for adults!

So weird!

Children often notice blind spots that adults don't pay attention to, or rather, those blind spots have become conventional to them.

As if they were meant to be that way from the start.

Chen Xuan brushed off Xia Nuo's confusion with a different topic and then returned to discussing the program:

"Right, since You You wants to play the drums, does Nuo Nuo want to join You You in the performance? You've been learning the piano for quite a few songs now."

"Um... Let me think..."

Xia Nuo fell into thought, and Chen Xuan found her pondering little expression so adorable that she couldn't help but take out her phone to snap some photos.

"Auntie Chen, I don't want to play the piano!"

Xia Nuo shook her head wildly from side to side, her hair getting messy with the movement, and Fang You instinctively reached out to tidy her hair.

Based on the teacher's attitude toward Xia Nuo, it could be deduced that Nuo Nuo's progress in learning piano was not ideal.

Not willing to choose piano for the talent show was a natural decision...

If children show dislikes for learning and for hobby classes, it's often because they lack a sense of accomplishment.

But if a child achieves something in a hobby they are passionate about, receiving praise from many people or winning a prize, you wouldn't believe how enthusiastic they can be about their classes!

And faced with Xia Nuo's refusal, Chen Xuan was also a bit curious:

"Nuo Nuo doesn't want to play the piano, so what performance do you have in mind?"

"I think, I want to dance with Ayu!" Xia Nuo declared loudly.
