Figure Skating: Waltz on Ice

Du Liangchen was deeply distressed upon hearing this news.

He didn't believe Hao Shuhui would do such a thing.

They were best friends, and he couldn't understand why Hao Shuxue would do such a thing.

Illness and betrayal by his brother caused Du Liangchen to lose hope.

He suffered from insomnia night after night, which caused his condition to worsen.

Du Liangchen's grandparents were depressed every day.

The attending physician suggested that the patient's family spend more time with him/her, which might help.

Du Liangchen soon received the results of Hao Shuxue and Coach Li's investigation.

Hao Shuxue was suspended and left the national team along with Coach Li.

This outcome did not make Du Liangchen happy either.

After Du Liangchen was injured, his parents, whom he hadn't seen for a long time, came back, but Du Liangchen was still the same.

He didn't want to interact with the outside world and liked to stare out the window in a daze, sometimes sitting there for an entire morning.

The attending physician suggested that Du Liangchen's family take him to see a psychologist, which Du Liangchen resented and resisted.

Because he has a secret, he is afraid to see a psychologist.

Du Liangchen had long realized that he had a psychological problem and had been trying to save himself, but his body was exhausted. He was already using up all his strength just to breathe every day, and he had no energy left to laugh.

Du Liangchen remained in this state for six months.

He has already started going back to school, but he still feels like he can't fit in. The only thing that hasn't changed is that his grades have always been number one.

He began to fear winter and the cold, which made it hard for Du Liangchen to breathe.

In the past six months, Du Liangchen has lost a lot of weight and grown a lot taller. His melancholic temperament and delicate appearance are very attractive and he is very popular with girls.

Many people at school wrote him love letters, but he never read them. He couldn't just throw away people's feelings, so he could only take them back and put them in a box.

"Xiao Chen, let's go grocery shopping with Grandpa. Your uncle is coming back today, so we'll cook him a nice meal."

Grandpa Du pushed open Du Liangchen's door and saw him reading again.

Du Liangchen put down his book, got up to get his coat, and said, "Here I am, Grandpa."

The grandfather and grandson walked towards the parking lot.

Grandpa Du sighed, "The food abroad isn't as good as back home. Every time he comes back, he's like a starving ghost."

Du Liangchen also thought of how Du Langxing looked every time he came back.

"Yes, Uncle always loses a lot of weight when he comes back."

Dulangxing retired three years ago due to injury and then became an assistant coach, but he worked abroad and systematically learned the training methods of foreign coaches.

This study lasted for three years.

Now that he has completed his studies and returned, he was supposed to come back and coach Du Liangchen.

But Du Liangchen is in no condition to compete right now. Although he hasn't officially announced his retirement, it's pretty much over.

The grandfather and grandson arrived at the market, where many vendors recognized Grandpa Du and greeted him warmly, hoping he would buy vegetables from their stalls.

After browsing around, they bought all the vegetables that Du Langxing liked to eat, and the grandfather and grandson returned home with their bags full.

Back home, after washing and chopping the vegetables for Grandma Du, I handed the kitchen over to her.

The two then set off for the airport to pick up Dulangxing.

"Dad~ Xiaochen~"

Du Liangchen waved happily when he saw Du Langxing.

As they walked out of the arrival gate, Du Liangchen excitedly went up and hugged Du Langxing.

"Uncle, I miss you so much~"

Dulangxing hugged him back: "I missed you all too."

Grandpa Du looked at them with a smile: "Alright~ There are too many people here, let's go back first, your mother is still waiting for you at home."
