Luo Xikui felt a slight tingling in her nose, then pursed her lips tightly, holding her breath to prevent tears from falling.
The car fell silent for a moment, except for the soft, soothing music playing in her ears.
About ten minutes later, the car stopped, and Luo Xikui got out of the car looking rather listless.
"Let's go in." Xu Ziyu strode forward.
Luo Xikui looked up and saw that it was a skating rink that is now rarely seen, and it was roller skating.
She didn't quite understand why Xu Ziyu had brought her here, and followed him in, dazed.
When she fell for the eighteenth time, landing on her bottom and sprawling on her back, the suppressed discomfort in her heart finally broke down. She lay on the ground, unable to get up, and burst into tears.
At this moment, she felt extremely wronged. She was already annoyed enough by finding out that Xiao Chun also liked Tuan Tuan, and then she failed her exam. Even though she was wearing protective gear, the fall still hurt a lot.
She sobbed for a while, then looked up with teary eyes and saw Xu Ziyu standing in front of her, as if watching her in such a sorry state. She felt even more aggrieved.
"Are you going to keep crying, or stand up?" Xu Ziyu asked, looking down at her.
Luo Xikui stopped crying, feeling that he seemed to be making a double entendre.
All eyes were on her. After her initial discomfort, her indomitable spirit flared up, and she stubbornly pushed herself up, sliding a few times before finally managing to stand up on her own.
But after standing up, I didn't dare to move much, because I was still a little scared after falling.
Then Xu Ziyu stretched out his palm in front of her, his fair and delicate hand looking much larger and stronger than hers.
She looked at his palm, then looked up at Xu Ziyu's face, and slowly raised her hand, placing it in his palm.
When their palms touched, he took her hand in his, and then took her hand in his other hand as well.
He moved backward, guiding her to roll the pulley little by little.
Gradually, she got the hang of skating, and he let go of her hand. She instinctively wanted to grab him, afraid of falling, but he pulled his hand away and skated a little further away.
"Be bold and come over here in the same position as before," Xu Ziyu said, standing in front of her.
Luo Xikui sniffed, still a little afraid of falling, and glided very, very slowly.
It took a while before I slid up to him, but I was unsteady and slipped again.
Just when she thought she was about to make intimate contact with the ground again, a hand supported her leaning back, and she grabbed his arm as if grasping at a straw.
Once she had regained her balance, he released her hand and said casually, "You see, you can skate over there by yourself without any problem."
Luo Xikui looked back at where she had just been, realizing that she had skated such a long distance all by herself.
Actually, she stumbled and staggered several times along the way, and was ready to give up, but when she saw him waiting for her ahead, she forced herself not to be afraid.
"It's okay to experience setbacks. As long as you persevere in what you want to do, you will achieve your goal." Xu Ziyu raised his hand and straightened her crooked hair clip.
Luo Xikui looked up at him, feeling that there was another layer of meaning behind every word he said. Was he comforting her for failing the exam?
“But we might not be able to go to the same high school.” She lowered her eyes and pouted.
Xu Ziyu didn't say anything, but reached out and took her left hand.
She grasped his hand in return, looking at their clasped hands; his palm was warm and thick, comforting.
