About ten seconds later, the lake surface broke open again, and Heroiyi's little head finally popped out of the water.

He shook the water off his head, slapped the water with his little paws, and shouted, "Father! Father! The fish got away!!!"

Wenshu walked over, squatted down, and pinched the baby's wet cheek, asking with concern, "Is the water cold?"

Holoi deliberately shook her head, trying to splash the water from her hair onto her father, exaggerating, "It's not cold! It's not cold!"

"The sun is shining so warmly, it's even hotter than my bath water!"

Manjushri wasn't angry when water splashed all over his face. Instead, he reached out and splashed some water on the baby's face, playing with him.

And so, the two of them, one big and one small, splashed around on the shore for a while, water everywhere...

A moment later, Heroiyi gurgled and submerged into the water again.

His small figure moved nimbly underwater, as fast as a silver streak.

This time, Hroyi quickly emerged from the lake, each of his two little paws gripping a large fish tightly, its tail still thrashing about, and each fish was bigger than his face.

He swam to the shore, huffing and puffing, and held the two fish high in the air, water droplets running down his little arms.

Manjushri quickly brought over a small bucket from the side, because they always came here to fish, so there are always a few buckets kept by the lake.

One of the buckets was specifically for holding Heroiyi. Sometimes when he got tired of playing and didn't want to walk, Manjushri would put him in the bucket and carry him back.

"Father! Aren't I amazing?" Holoi looked up, her face pleading for praise.

As Manjushri placed the two large fish into the bucket, he praised him, "Amazing! Catching two fish at once, who can match Yi Yi's skill!"

Heroyee laughed until her eyes curved into crescent moons: "Haha ...

"Haha ...

After laughing, Heroie announced, "Those two are for Father!"

"Father can't eat that much, so he should eat with Yi Yi."

"Alright, alright, Yi Yi, come up here quickly."

Hroiyi refused, kicking his legs back and pulling himself back into the water: "No, I want to swim a little longer!"

"Dad, look how fast I can swim..."

After saying that, he plunged into the water and swam away like a fish.

Under the sunlight, a thin ripple spread across the water's surface, revealing a small figure that appeared and disappeared beneath the surface...

Standing on the shore, Manjushri couldn't help but sigh: some people drown (like him), while others are born with excellent swimming skills (like Heroiyi).

He sighed, briefly looked away, and prepared to lift the bucket and put it into the lake to fill it with water so that the fish in the bucket could live a little longer.

Unexpectedly, just as he dipped the rim of the bucket into the water, and the water had just reached the bottom of the bucket, the largest fish in the bucket suddenly swung and, using the momentum of the water, slid off the rim of the bucket with a "whoosh," and disappeared into the lake with a flick of its tail.

Manjushri looked at the bucket where only one fish was thrashing about, realizing he had meant well but had done something wrong: "..."

Just then, Heroiyi swam back from a short distance away. He quickly reached into the water and pinched the fish that was trying to escape, then tossed it precisely into the bucket with a swift and decisive motion.

The big fish thrashed about in the bucket for a couple of moments, but ultimately could not escape its fate.

Holoi swam over and lay down on the shore, deliberately making a fierce expression: "Daddy!"

Knowing he was in the wrong, Manjushri quickly raised his hands in surrender, saying, "I was wrong, I was wrong, I was wrong..."

"I just wanted to put some water in the bucket, but it slurped away as soon as it touched the water."

Seeing her father's immediate apology, Heroie held back for two seconds before finally bursting out laughing: "Alright then."

"Alright," Manjushri put down the bucket and reached out to the little one, saying, "How about we stop swimming? Let's change our clothes and go grill some fish!"

"Uh-huh."

Holoi stretched out his two little paws toward his father, and then obediently let his father lift him ashore.

After coming out of the lake, Holoi was soaked to the bone, water dripping down his clothes and tail.

But he didn't care at all, following his father and shouting at the top of his lungs, his voice crisp and loud:

"Grilled fish! Grilled fish! Grilled fish! Grilled fish! Grilled fish! Grilled fish! Grilled fish! Grilled fish! Grilled fish! Grilled fish! Grilled fish! Grilled fish! Grilled fish! Grilled fish! Grilled fish! Grilled fish! Grilled fish! Grilled fish! Grilled fish! Grilled fish!"
