After everyone finished eating, Liu Hao smiled and said to Lu Yuan, "Brother Yuan, I have a roller skating rink here, let's go roller skating together!"
Lu Yuan was taken aback. He wondered if Qian Duoduo could roller skate. But when he saw the expectation in everyone else's eyes, he leaned closer to Qian Duoduo and asked softly, "Can you skate?"
Qian Duoduo smiled and replied, "I haven't tried it yet, but if you're willing to take me along, I can give it a try."
Upon hearing this, Lu Yuan's face instantly lit up with a smile, like a blooming flower. The others at the table were surprised to see Lu Yuan's radiant smile, exchanging glances as if asking each other if they knew this Lu Yuan.
Qian Duoduo noticed the surprise in everyone's eyes. She secretly thought that perhaps she could show more affection to people like Lu Yuan, who might be her kind, since there were still some differences between her and the native humans.
Liu Hao didn't say much and led everyone directly to a room where some people were already skating and were doing quite well. Liu Hao said, "Because this room is quite spacious, I've taken some measures to keep everyone warm. Don't worry, even if you don't wear these cotton-padded coats and down jackets, you won't catch a cold."
Qian Duoduo saw everyone taking off their outer coats, and Lu Yuan even took off his down jacket, shocking his friends in Beijing. Lu Yuan was wearing a beige turtleneck sweater paired with light gray trousers, giving off a relaxed and stylish vibe. This style was completely different from his usual image, making him stand out. They couldn't quite describe the feeling, but they thought he looked incredibly good.
With Lu Yuan's help, Qian Duoduo took off her puffer jacket. This act instantly attracted the attention of the surrounding girls. Qian Duoduo was wearing a bright red batwing top paired with black flared pants, making her appear both slim and tall. Her high ponytail, which she had deliberately styled to fit the puffer jacket, added to her playful cuteness and youthful energy. At that moment, Qian Duoduo was like a beautiful butterfly, fluttering among the crowd, becoming the focus of everyone's attention.
Everyone witnessed another unbelievable scene: Lu Yuan patiently helped Qian Duoduo choose a suitable pair of roller skates, then knelt down on one knee and gently helped her put on the skates and tighten the laces. He then gently helped Qian Duoduo up, letting her try skating a few steps to ensure the skates fit comfortably before sitting down beside her and putting on his own skates. Once everyone was dressed, they carefully stepped out from behind the fence and onto the roller rink. Lu Yuan held Qian Duoduo's hand tightly, as if afraid she would fall. Qian Duoduo, on the other hand, seemed a little clumsy, trying hard to maintain her balance, but still wobbling every now and then.
Looking at the two people so inseparable, Ye Ruoyun couldn't help but feel a pang of envy. She slowly walked over to Lu Fen, who was bickering with Ye Siting, gently touched her shoulder, then raised her chin slightly, pointed to Lu Yuan, who was teaching Qian Duoduo how to roller skate, and asked in a low voice, "I never expected Yuanzi to have such a thoughtful side!"
Lu Fen followed Ye Ruoyun's gaze and saw Lu Yuan carefully helping Qian Duoduo walk slowly. She snorted disdainfully and said, "You people are really making a fuss over nothing. Yuanzi and Duoduo have known each other for almost ten years. Before, when Duoduo was younger, he always treated her like a little sister and protected her. But ever since she turned eighteen, oh my, if you saw them together, you would definitely be sick of their sweetness."
The Ye siblings were taken aback upon hearing this. Qian Duoduo wasn't from Beijing, and her accent made it difficult to determine her origin. Ye Siting curiously pressed on, "Has your family approved of Yuanzi's boyfriend?"
Lu Fen looked at him like he was an idiot: "Of course, from my grandparents to my parents, uncles and aunts, not one of them disagreed. Besides, Duoduo is great, she's good-looking and capable, only an idiot would disagree."
Ye Ruoyun became even more curious: "Lu Fen, are you very familiar with her?"
Lu Fen said, "We're familiar with each other. We've lived in the same dorm for four years, how could we not be familiar!"
Ye Ruoyun immediately grasped the key point and asked, "The dormitory? Is she also a female soldier?"
Lu Fen shook his head and said, "We were college classmates and roommates for four years. He is now a proper graduate student in agronomy."
Ye Ruoyun fell silent immediately. If they were just college students, they wouldn't care, but a graduate student like this is extremely rare. Especially after hearing Lu Fen say, "He currently holds three patents for agricultural rice, has a partnership with a clothing factory in Guangzhou, and has even built a high-end residential community in Shenzhen. You've all heard of it, it's called Oriental Huating."
Hearing this, everyone gasped. Pursuing a postgraduate degree? That was already an unattainable goal for them! Not to mention what owning three patents meant—even if they spent their days lying in bed doing nothing, as long as these patents were used, a steady stream of wealth would flow into their pockets. Especially the "Dongfang Huating" project, which was featured on the national news, shocked both domestic and international audiences. People marveled that an inconspicuous small city in China could build such towering buildings; marveled at their astonishing construction speed; marveled at the high-quality property management services provided by the community. Such achievements left everyone speechless and incredulous.
Everyone's eyes were drawn to the couple not far away. One was tenderly doting on the other, while the other was diligent and eager to learn. They exclaimed softly that every time something was in danger, there was always a strong arm protecting her. Liu Hao whispered, "I knew it. Yuanzi is such a proud person, her current partner can't be that simple. See, she really is not simple."
Looking at Qian Duoduo's profile, Ye Siting said quietly, "She looks like someone else."
Lu Fen rolled her eyes: "What you're saying is ridiculous. Of course Duo Duo is a person. If Yuan Zi heard you say that, he'd be furious with you."
Ye Siting said irritably, "We have a new instructor in our team, also surnamed Qian, who looks a bit like Yuanzi's boyfriend."
Lu Fen was taken aback: "What are your instructors called?"
Ye Siting: "Qian Yu."
Lu Fen nodded and said, "Then you're not mistaken. Duo Duo's second brother is named Qian Yu. He graduated from the Special Operations Academy. He's in high demand now. I heard he's very sought after. I didn't expect your team to be even stronger!"
Ye Siting was taken aback, then laughed and said, "I knew it. When Qian Yu was eating with us, he kept talking about his wife and his sister. He was so proud, as if his sister, wife, and daughter were the most amazing people in the world. I didn't expect that what he said was true."
