Zhang Xiu and Demon God Green Lake (1)

Earth, at Xu Jingming's house in the evening.

The watering system in the courtyard sprayed mist that enveloped the lawn.

Xu Jingming and Li Miaomiao were playing with their daughter, Xu Lixing. Although Xu Lixing was petite, her physique was extraordinary. She was skipping about on the steps of the courtyard fountain.

Skipping two steps with every hop, she quickly reached the top before leaping off onto the ground. Then, she slowly jumped up again.

"Dear, aren't you tired?" Li Miaomiao asked in exasperation.

"Not at all." The more Xu Lixing jumped, the more energetic she became. It was late July, and even in the evening, the temperature was above 30°C. Xu Lixing was covered in sweat, but she still jumped with vigor.

"She just gets hyperactive when someone's around," Li Miaomiao said helplessly to Xu Jingming. "She's usually not that hyper. It's because you are out here playing with her today."
