Figure Skating: Waltz on Ice

Chapter 415 The Bystander

Pushing open the door to the dressing room of the program crew, which was labeled "Du Liangchen and Mei Jing," I saw that everyone inside was eating. They turned around to look when they heard the noise.

"Why are you only just getting back? Come and eat, or the food will get cold."

As Liu Yue spoke, she pushed a boxed lunch forward, gesturing for Du Liangchen to come and take it.

Du Liangchen glanced at Mei Jing, who had her back to the door, then turned and sat down in the chair furthest away from him. "I'm not hungry. Whoever hasn't eaten enough can eat this."

Mei Jing paused in his eating, slammed his chopsticks down, and, still angry, felt his anger surge even more when he heard Du Liangchen using his own health as an excuse to refuse to eat.

The others in the lounge were startled by the commotion Mei Jing made. They looked at each other, exchanging silent glances.

Ma Chengchong raised his chin slightly, glancing in the direction of Du Liangchen and Mei Jing. [What's going on with these two?]

Yan Peng also looked at Liu Yue curiously, after all, as an assistant, she should know more than they did.

Liu Yue blinked, looking completely bewildered, then shrugged and spread her hands, saying, "I don't know~"

Wang Keran took a sip of water and mouthed silently: "They had a fight."

Lan Ruoyu frowned, typing on her phone to show them: "No way, those two are such good friends!"

"what are you guys saying?"

The accompanying team doctor was unfamiliar with them, couldn't understand their eye contact, and couldn't decipher the cryptic messages on Lan Ruoyu's phone. Completely bewildered, he asked...

"Shh~"

The group was startled by his sudden voice and hurriedly put their index fingers to their lips to silence him.

Yan Peng quickly shoveled the rice out of his box, took out his phone, and typed: "I think Sister Wang is right. Didn't you see how Mei Jing came in just now? She was like a powder keg."

Liu Yue also stopped eating and took out her phone. [I don't know if Mei Jingsheng is angry, but Du Liangchen definitely seems angry. Didn't you see he's not eating?]

......

Unaware that she was being swarmed by crickets, Mei Jing stared blankly at the food, her thoughts drifting back to the past.

He knew in his heart that Du Liangchen had absolutely no feelings for Yuan Wenjie, but he couldn't help feeling a pang of jealousy. He still remembered that year at the dance studio when he first met Yuan Wenjie; his eyes were full of hostility, and his words were full of provocation. He introduced himself as Du Liangchen's mother's student and knew everything about Du Liangchen.

And I felt like an outsider, just listening to him.

Mei Jing knew from that time on that Yuan Wenjie's feelings for Du Liangchen were not simply those of fellow disciples or friends.

He also knew that Yuan Wenjie's hostility towards him was a warning he was giving because Yuan Wenjie had discovered his ulterior motives towards Du Liangchen.

As a child, Mei Jing actually liked, and even hated, Du Liangchen.

The biggest reason was that when they first met, Mei Jing mistook him for a girl because of his handsome appearance and even thought about pursuing him as her girlfriend. Later, when she found out that he was a man like her, she began to dislike and despise his appearance for some unknown reason, thinking that he was just a pretty face.

Mei Jing was pulled aside by Hao Shuxue to get to know him, while Mei Jing stood by as a background figure.

This led Du Liangchen to have the impression that Mei Jing was a very aloof and taciturn boy when he was on the provincial team.

During training, Mei Jing discovered that Du Liangchen's figure skating skills were outstanding, and she was amazed by him time and time again. The awkwardness in her heart gradually disappeared because of her admiration for him.
