Chapter 105 Ice Skating

Lin Beixiu said with deep emotion, “Although it’s not as good as some amusement parks, it’s still very beautiful.”

“Let’s go, after seeing it, we can go ice skating.”

Ice skating?

There was indeed an ice skating rink on the first floor of the mall. He didn’t expect that she still remembered.

“I’m not very good at it.”

“I’m not good either, but we can learn.”

Qin Muxue dragged him to the mall, bought tickets, rented roller skates. Lin Beixiu hesitated a bit, but in a blink of an eye, he was pulled onto the rink.

……

Qin Muxue couldn’t help but chuckle, “Come on, Beixiu, move.”

Lin Beixiu held onto the railing. He had tried to move earlier, but all he got was a sore bottom.

Qin Muxue swore she wasn’t laughing on purpose. It was the first time she had seen Beixiu embarrassed so many times. Every time he fell, it made Qin Muxue burst into laughter.

“You said you couldn’t do it, right?” Lin Beixiu looked frustrated.

“But I practice taekwondo, balance is also important.”

She fell at first, but later she got the hang of it. It wasn’t as difficult as she had imagined.

Lin Beixiu was about to say he wanted to give up when a pair of hands appeared in front of him.

Qin Muxue reached out to him, “Come on, Beixiu, I’ll help you.”

“I…”

Before Lin Beixiu could finish, Qin Muxue pulled him up. Lin Beixiu reflexively placed his hand on her shoulder out of fear.

Qin Muxue was also startled by Lin Beixiu’s sudden proximity. Her heart raced, and with a blush, she said, “Don’t be nervous, just follow me.”

Qin Muxue led him to glide on the rink, attracting envious glances from the people around. This couple had a high level of attractiveness, and beautiful things always caught people’s attention.

“Feeling better?”

“Yeah, much better.”

With Qin Muxue’s guidance, he gradually became more familiar, especially with her delicate and boneless hands. Sometimes when he got nervous, he would grip Qin Muxue’s hand too tightly, causing her pain, but she didn’t say anything.

“Why don’t you try on your own?”

Qin Muxue let go of his hand, and Lin Beixiu hesitated, standing still not knowing what to do.

“Hehe, Beixiu, move.”

Lin Beixiu continued to skate slowly, while Qin Muxue could swiftly glide around the rink, even performing some difficult moves like spins, making it hard to believe it was her first time.

She glided gracefully like an elegant and noble swan dancing.

Lin Beixiu was amazed, especially as her skirt fluttered. He even feared she might have a wardrobe malfunction.

Lin Beixiu’s competitive spirit was ignited, and he began to catch up with her pace.

Seeing him following, Qin Muxue smiled, turned around, and skated towards him.

Lin Beixiu stood still as Qin Muxue circled around him, then came behind him, lightly pinching his waist.

Lin Beixiu tried to keep up, but he couldn’t catch her. It felt like she was teasing him, so he followed without admitting defeat.

…

Exiting the ice skating rink, Qin Muxue couldn’t resist teasing him all the way, about how he couldn’t catch up and fell several times.

After being mocked in the haunted house earlier, it was time for him to laugh back.

Lin Beixiu looked helpless; this was karma.

“Isn’t it about time? I’m hungry again.”

“Then let’s go.”

Lin Beixiu didn’t forget to rub his sore bottom; he fell quite hard.

“What do you want to eat?”

“Anything is fine, you choose.”

Lin Beixiu bought her a bowl of braised offal and himself a bottle of cola. They sat on the stairs by the street, listening to a street singer not far away.

“Aren’t you eating?”

Lin Beixiu shook his head, “I’m not hungry.”

As Qin Muxue ate, she looked around and saw a few people singing and recording videos.

Qin Muxue nudged his arm, “Why is there a piano under the bridge?”

“It’s public; if you can play, you can try.”

Qin Muxue shook her head and continued eating peacefully.

“Have some.”

Qin Muxue handed him a skewer of meatballs, and Lin Beixiu accepted it. Even if he didn’t, she would force him to, as he couldn’t outplay her anyway.

Might as well accept fate.

“That’s enough, I don’t want anymore.”

They ate and listened to music until they finished their food.

“Do you want to go shopping, or should we head back?”

“Can we listen a bit longer?”

Lin Beixiu shook his head, “No need.”

“Let’s go check it out.” Qin Muxue still pulled him along.

In a corner, a man played the guitar and sang, with a guitar case in front of him containing a few scattered bills. Most people who came were there to pet the cat, and they were mostly young ladies who left after petting.

Lin Beixiu looked at the small amount of money in the man’s box and asked, “Can you make money like this?”

The man seemed tired of singing and sat down to chat with them.

“It’s just a hobby, mainly for enjoyment. Some elderly people here like the songs I sing.”

“Are you a couple?”

Before Lin Beixiu could answer, Qin Muxue spoke first, “Yes, my boyfriend brought me here to play during his break.”
