It was summer now, and the pond was covered with green lotus leaves and brightly blooming lotus flowers, creating a very pleasant scene.

Lin Yi stood by the pond with Huo Mianmian and admired the view for a while.

At this moment, a series of croaks came from the pond: "Ribbit ribbit-"

Hearing this sound, Huo Mianmian's expression suddenly changed.

He looked up at Lin Yi and said excitedly, "Little Dad, it sounds like a frog."

Lin Yi smiled: "Yes, it's a frog."

Huo Mianmian, at his age, was curious about everything, and he asked, "Why does the frog keep croaking?"

Lin Yi teased Huo Mianmian: "I don't know, maybe it's a bit lonely and wants to call its friends."

Calling its friends?

Huo Mianmian looked thoughtful after hearing this.

Then, when the frog croaked again, he started responding: "Ribbit~"

The frog continued: "Ribbit-"

Huo Mianmian also continued: "Ribbit~"

The frog: "Ribbit ribbit-"

Huo Mianmian: "Ribbit ribbit~"

And so, the two began to respond to each other, as if communicating.

Lin Yi found it quite amusing watching them.

Finally, Huo Mianmian got tired of croaking and took several deep breaths, then said to the frog, "Okay, I won't chat with you anymore; it's tiring."

Frog: "Ribbit ribbit-"

Huo Mianmian waved his hand: "I'm really tired."

Frog: "Ribbit ribbit-"

Huo Mianmian: "..."

He raised his little head and looked at Lin Yi, puzzled: "Little Dad, why does the frog talk so much? I'm tired, but it still wants to chat."

Lin Yi burst into laughter: "Hahaha!"

After laughing enough, he said to Huo Mianmian, "Who knows? Maybe the frog is a chatterbox."

Hearing this, Huo Mianmian turned to advise the frog: "Don't croak anymore; be careful not to hurt your throat."

Whether the frog listened to Huo Mianmian or not, it didn't croak again for a while.

Huo Mianmian's eyes sparkled as he looked at Lin Yi: "The frog is really obedient."

Lin Yi smiled: "Yes, it thinks our Mianmian is very cute, so it's willing to cooperate."

Hearing this, Huo Mianmian smiled sweetly.

The father and son were enjoying their harmony when an unexpected visitor appeared.

Lin Yi heard some noise and turned to look.

He saw Huo Yiping, drunk and staggering, walking towards them.

This man couldn't even walk steadily, swaying back and forth.

Lin Yi didn't want to deal with a drunk, so he decided to leave with Huo Mianmian.

At this moment, Huo Yiping spread his arms to block them, speaking in a frivolous tone: "Don't go, let's have a good chat."

Lin Yi didn't expect this person to be targeting him and coldly replied: "What do we have to chat about?"

Huo Yiping looked at Lin Yi with a lecherous and unrestrained gaze: "As long as we want to chat, there's plenty to talk about."
