Figure Skating: Waltz on Ice

Du Langxing was also moved to tears and hugged him tightly, saying, "Alright, we should get off the field now, so as not to affect the next person's match."

"Hmm~" Du Liangchen wiped his face, his eyes red and swollen like a rabbit's. His hands trembled with excitement, but he still remembered to bow and thank the staff present. Everyone he passed congratulated him with excited eyes.

Du Liangchen, who went to calm his heart rate and replenish his energy the day after tomorrow, was unaware that his outstanding performance had affected those who competed after him to varying degrees. Nervousness prevented them from performing at their usual level, and they all left the field with sour faces.

Du Liangchen was still immersed in his joy, waiting to receive his small medal after the competition, unaware of the envious looks he received from the other athletes.

Back home, Mei Jing, who was fast asleep in the middle of the night, was startled awake by a loud vibration from her phone. Her body twitched, and she was jolted awake.

Picking up her phone, Mei Jing saw a message from Du Liangchen. Ignoring the discomfort of the bright light in her ears, she squinted to open it. After seeing the 102 points he sent, she realized she hadn't misread the message and was so excited that she jumped out of bed.

"Holy crap! Am I still half asleep? It really is 102 points! Is that amazing? No wonder it's my family's."

With a silly grin on his face, he opened the chat window, pressed the voice button, and excitedly said, "Baby, you're amazing! So incredible! 102 points, crushing everyone!"

Du Liangchen, who was waiting for a reply, stopped drinking the water he was holding to his lips when his phone rang.

He picked up his phone and saw it was a reply from Mei Jing. He subtly avoided Du Langxing and turned down the volume to listen to what she had to say.

When his hoarse, tired voice reached his ears, Du Liangchen's ears instantly turned red, and his usually flat lips could no longer be suppressed, turning into a pouty smile from the undisguised praise.

"Who messaged you? You're smiling so happily."

Du Langxing had just finished reporting Du Liangchen's achievements to his superior when he turned around and saw Du Liangchen smiling with a lovestruck expression. His heart skipped a beat.

Du Langxing's voice startled Du Liangchen so much that he almost dropped his phone. He said nervously with a tense face, "It's nothing, I just saw a joke."

Du Langxing narrowed his eyes. Seeing that he didn't want to talk about it, he didn't ask any further. After all, the child had his own ideas since he was little, and now that he's older, he can't be too strict with him.

Du Liangchen typed to Mei Jing, telling him to go to sleep and tell her when he woke up that he was outside.

Mei Jing then sent a series of messages, reminding him to eat well, be careful, and not to go shopping alone, as if she were reminding a child that she was afraid he would be kidnapped by bad people.

The two of them have different schedules now; one of them is always available when the other is not, which results in very little time for them to chat. They both send each other many messages and wait for the other's response, which is tiring, but neither of them feels tired.

After dealing with the reporters who were constantly trying to trap him, Du Liangchen sat wearily in his car, preparing to return to his hotel.

Seeing his vacant gaze, Du Langxing asked, "Are you sleepy?"

"I'm fine." Du Liangchen rubbed his hands to try and cheer himself up.

Du Langxing patted his back tenderly, "Don't push yourself. You didn't sleep well last night, did you? Lean on my shoulder and take a nap. I'll wake you up when we get to our place."
