The morning air carried a biting chill.
Lin Xiao rose early and, as usual, washed up before heading to the backyard to practice martial arts.
"Huh?"
Lin Xiao suddenly looked toward a certain direction in surprise.
Had the sun risen in the west?
Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling had actually not slept in! Instead, they had come to the Backyard Corridor early in the morning. Judging from their stances, they seemed to be practicing martial arts?
The two of them were still bleary-eyed and wearing pajamas. They did not look as though they had woken up willingly. Rather, they seemed to have been dragged out of bed by Aunt Ye.
"Good morning, Aunt Ye."
Lin Xiao saw Ye Qingxian again. She was dressed in a white martial arts uniform. Her stunning figure outlined graceful curves beneath the loose clothing, and her complexion was rosy and vibrant, her spirits high.
Her condition was worlds apart from that of Ye Lingling and Dugu Yan.
"Morning."
Ye Qingxian replied. Her lips were rosy, as though she had even applied rouge after getting up early. Having reached middle age, she was becoming more refined and youthful with every passing day.
Lin Xiao did not hurry to practice martial arts. Instead, he stood to the side and watched Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling's movements, shaking his head slightly. At the rate they were practicing, who knew how long it would take them to get started?
"Sister Yanyan, Sister Ling Ling, although martial arts practice looks slow, the movements actually have an orderly rhythm of fast and slow, with endless variations. It requires the utmost concentration."
"There's no point in practicing like this. You might as well go back to sleep."
When someone was exhausted, they could not even play games properly, let alone do anything
