Figure Skating: Waltz on Ice

Feeling his hand being held by the person beside him, Du Liangchen, who had been staring blankly out the window, snapped out of his reverie and leaned closer to ask, "What's wrong?"

"I wanted to hold your hand. What were you thinking about just now, so engrossed?" Mei Jing whispered in his ear, her warm breath making Du Liangchen's ears turn red.

Du Liangchen blinked his clear, bright eyes. "I was thinking that the season is almost over, so I hope everything goes well in this competition!"

Mei Jing looked at him with heartache and gently comforted him, "Yes, you will, you definitely will. I'm here for you, so don't put too much pressure on yourself, okay?"

Du Liangchen's eyes flickered slightly as he looked around at everyone busy with their own things. He then took Mei Jing's hand in return, their fingers intertwined. "No, I'm not putting any pressure on myself. Haven't we gotten used to this high-intensity lifestyle over the years? I just hope everyone will be safe and sound on this trip."

Mei Jing pinched his thumb, lifted his hand, and secretly kissed the back of his hand. "Yes, history won't repeat itself. Besides, we've applied for security protection from them this time, and you'll have bodyguards with you. We'll definitely get through the competition period safely."

Du Liangchen nodded, then naturally rested his head on Mei Jing's shoulder. So many matches had passed between the previous B-level events and the current World Championships, and he had performed very well despite the challenges. In front of Mei Jing, he couldn't help but show his vulnerability and reveal his softer side to him.

When Mei Jing saw him leaning against her with his eyes closed, she thought he was getting dizzy again, so she pressed acupoints on his hand to relieve motion sickness symptoms.

Are you dizzy?

"Thank goodness, let me lean against this for a bit."

Mei Jing leaned closer to him, letting his head rest on her broken bones. "Is this more comfortable?"

Du Liangchen didn't want to talk, so she hugged his arm and nodded. Her hair tickled his neck, and her ears turned red in an instant.

The two girls sitting next to them on the left were rummaging through snacks when they turned around and saw Du Liangchen leaning on Mei Jing's shoulder, excitedly holding her hand, his eyes sparkling as if to say, "Did you see that? They're so sweet!!"

These two are named Meng Zhixia and Yaozhu. They are two strong athletes in the women's singles team.

Du Liangchen doesn't get dizzy from high-speed spinning, but he gets dizzy from all kinds of transportation, not just airsickness, but also occasional car sickness. To be precise, he gets dizzy in any enclosed, poorly ventilated vehicle, which is why his favorite mode of transportation is the motorcycle.

Afterwards, Mei Jing was also unable to open her eyes due to the swaying of the car, and fell asleep with her head resting against Du Liangchen.

The two didn't realize the bus had stopped until someone in the next seat woke them up, and then they got off.

Because there were too many people on this trip, Du Langxing was unable to take care of Du Liangchen, so he had informed Du Langxing in advance to look after Du Liangchen.

Mei Jing put the hat on the back of the still dazed Du Liangchen, slung their training bags over her shoulder, and then took his hand as they got out of the car. They found their own and Du Liangchen's suitcases from the coach distributing the luggage.

These moments were captured by fans waiting at the airport entrance.

Du Liangchen also came to his senses at this time, took the suitcase from Mei Jing, and the group entered the airport hall in a line.

Fans waiting in the airport terminal cheered loudly and took photos with their phones when they saw them appear.
