The teacher on stage was announcing the game rules, "100 push-ups, and the first family to finish wins."
Ji Ze was in front, Ji Chao was behind.
Lu Nuonuo was held by her two brothers, sitting in the very middle.
The combined weight of the three children was roughly that of an adult.
Ji Muye's expression didn't change, and when the whistle blew, his movements flowed smoothly, showing no delay due to the three children on his back.
His hands were steady, and his speed matched that of Zhou Jiawang beside him.
Most children's fathers, who didn't exercise regularly, already had their beer bellies touching the yoga mats without even bending over; unable to do 10 push-ups, they were out of breath, lying on the mats.
Some fathers were on the leaner side, flapping their arms like the wings of a bee, causing their children on their backs to tremble as if they were about to take off.
Gradually, fewer and fewer dads remained in the competition.
