Should we call 120?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If not, maybe call the police.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mo Jingchun nodded in agreement, \"Indeed, we should call 120, your sister seems quite seriously ill.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Let’s go, we’ll row the boat and leave your sister in peace for a bit.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Maybe after some quiet time, she’ll be all better.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Candy looked at her brother with surprise, \"Is that possible? Getting better without medicine or injections?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Of course it can!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Watching the two people gradually walk away, Zhou Yaling chased after them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Wait for me!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I want to play too.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ten minutes later, Mo Jingchun and Candy sat quietly at the bow of the boat, both looking at Zhou Yaling with the same expression, each holding a drink.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sister, didn’t you want to play too?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Why aren’t you pedaling harder?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Look how far that other boat has gone.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mo Jingchun nodded, \"Pedal faster.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Pedal, I will!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A few minutes later, the small boat reached the middle of the lake, and Zhou Yaling was exhausted, gulping down milk tea.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This thing is too tiring to pedal.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Feiyan pedaled rhythmically, laughing as she said:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Pedaling like me, not only is it not tiring, but you can keep going endlessly.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If you rush it all in one go, you’ll just get more and more tired.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s the same principle as short-distance and long-distance running; short-distance is suitable for a burst of energy, but long-distance isn’t, it requires rhythm.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mo Jingchun laughed and said, \"Listen, you should learn more; such a simple principle and you don’t get it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1205,"2026-06-03T06:30:28.421Z","2026-06-03T06:30:31.457Z",1,"novelbin.me","615d21f86cdab31df197232d3ee5fac8e32453936a8bb7a570930aac416e15c1","tech-dominator-starts-with-raising-kids-chapter-458","tech-dominator-starts-with-raising-kids-chapter-456",544,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Ftech-dominator-starts-with-raising-kids-cover.jpg"]
