Chapter 179: Convince people with reason!
```
"Yes, become my subordinate, that's what I mean literally,"
Fang You explained, "I've now pinpointed the source of uncle's agony."
Fang You didn't have time to carefully check the newly acquired task unlock hints, clicked to confirm the task rewards, collected the Talent, and then continued to express his own viewpoint:
"Although we haven't spent much time together, I think you're a wonderful adult."
"You're very kind-hearted, willing to play with us kids, you're also amazing at playing games, and then, being able to work at such an awesome tech company, you must be a very talented person, right!"
"Why are you suddenly saying all this... I'm not that amazing, look, I got optimized out,"
"I believe uncle did it because he didn't want to stoop to the company's level!" Fang You said, "Even in such a big company, there must be some unreasonable and dirty adults, right!"
"Uh... you're not wrong about that..."
[Song Hang found out he may truly have a lot in common with you! Emotional Energy +30]
While Fang You was trying non-stop to butter up Song Hang, Xia Nuo was also whispering to Asai Reina and Luo Xianyu at the side.
Luo Xianyu, who had been recruited temporarily, was still not quite clear on the situation, "Is it, is it time to start the 'Praise Uncle' campaign?"
Asai Reina nodded, "Yes, it seems because they are worried uncle might think too much, they want to praise him more."
Xia Nuo was in a dilemma, "But, You You told us not to speak recklessly, fearing our compliments might actually hurt uncle..."
"Then, then let Ayu give it a try! Ayu is the best at praising people."
With that, Luo Xianyu summoned the courage to join in the conversation:
"Uncle, uncle, listen to what Ayu has to say!"
"Although Ayu just met uncle today, uncle doesn't seem like a bad person at all!"
Luo Xianyu thought about it, then revealed a very mischievous smile, "After all, uncle doesn't look like he has any offensive power!"
"Thanks, thank you..."
Song Hang's face showed a somewhat inexplicably awkward smile.
"I think Ayu is right, I think that means uncle is a very gentle person, why would he need to show aggressiveness in front of children, right?"
"In my eyes, uncle is gentle and righteous."
"But this world is neither gentle nor righteous."
"Being out of place in this world, that's uncle's source of pain."
Fang You's words suddenly made Song Hang feel a refreshing, eye-opening sensation!
Although, although he knew that this was just an 8-year-old kid lecturing him, why did everything he say make sense?
It was strange, but...
[Song Hang thought what you said was absolutely correct, Emotional Energy +100]
"Just surviving in such a world is already an incredible feat for uncle."
"So, instead of forcing yourself to do things you are reluctant to, why not help us out, and incidentally solve some of those troubles of yours."
Fang You counted off on his fingers, "Uncle's troubles now are having no friends, no job, and the pressure of savings, right? But, if you become my subordinate, I'll give you work, then pay you a salary, and just like that, the problems are solved. Of course, the most important thing is—"
Fang You aimed his index finger at Song Hang, his expression full of a grandiose and righteous demeanor:
"As long as you work for me, I can also become your friend."
"Wow! I feel like there's a golden aura behind You You."
"Is this You You's personal charm, it's too cool... Ling Nai is super suki..."
"Although Ayu doesn't know what dad said, Ayu will applaud first!"
Everyone followed Ayu and started clapping, including the somewhat bemused Song Hang.
Song Hang scratched his head. He had a look of something being off but couldn't quite pinpoint what it was.
But this fluttering feeling, it was really hard to—
[System Prompt: Reasoning successful, you're convincing with logic...]
Seeing Song Hang's expression becoming one that was gradually being persuaded, Fang You already felt the powerful force coming from [convincing with logic].
From the conversation and interaction with Song Hang, Fang You could clearly feel it wasn't just one thing that was bothering him, but rather suddenly losing a sense of purpose, entering a state where life feels meaningless.
Fang You had seen many such people in his memory, commonly found in families with strong controlling desires, where children live according to the expectations of parents and teachers from a young age. Once the parents or superiors stop giving them expectations and goals, they become confused and at a loss.

It was quite simple to get such a person back on track.
Just find them some goals they want to achieve.
In the process of finding goals, maybe they will discover what they truly want to do.
If they don't find it, just keep finding them goals.
Meanwhile, under Fang You's persuasive [convincing with logic], Song Hang was gradually becoming willing to accept Fang You's proposal.
Anyways, he couldn't find other work for two years due to the non-compete clause; he was idle anyway, having someone to spend time with wasn't too bad.
Once they went back to school after the summer vacation, they'd probably forget about him.
Yeah, maybe in a few days...
"Uncle, so have you decided? Do you want to become my subordinate?"
"What specifically do you want me to do?"
"Can you drive? Do you have a car at home?"
"I have an SUV."
"That's great, an SUV is just what I need."
"Does the work you're asking me to do need a car?"
