Figure Skating: Waltz on Ice

Before they knew it, it was time for the second leg of the competition, which Mei Jing and Du Liangchen had chosen, to begin.

This time, being in his own country and not having to take a long-haul flight was a very good thing for Du Liangchen.

They went to the venue together to perform.

Du Liangchen was not in good condition and was panting heavily after the ensemble ended.

Du Liangchen's choreography and dance arrangements are different from others, perhaps because he used to be a dancer and therefore pays more attention to aesthetics.

Before each jump, it slides halfway across the track to gather energy before jumping.

Before taking off, Du Liangchen doesn't slow down but accelerates, giving people a silky smooth feeling.

Doing this would require more physical exertion for Du Liangchen than for others, and it would be very strenuous for him, given that he currently suffers from asthma.

However, habits formed over many years cannot be changed, so the only option is to train physical fitness relentlessly to avoid exhaustion during competitions.

Many staff members were very excited to see Mei Jing on the ice, sitting on the sidelines watching her perform.

'As expected of Mei Jing, she's so popular!'

During the two years that Du Liangchen was recuperating, with the retirement of veteran athletes, Mei Jing became the most promising new star in men's figure skating.

He truly lived up to everyone's expectations, becoming the first person in China to achieve a Grand Slam in the youth category.

Du Liangchen was the second.

Before we knew it, it was time for the competition.

Du Liangchen and Mei Jing were woken up by their alarm clock early in the morning. After checking their equipment, they took a bus with their coach to the venue.

As soon as they got off the bus, they were surrounded by Mei Jing's fans. With the help of security guards, the group was able to enter the gate smoothly.

Seeing Mei Jing's flushed and embarrassed face, Du Liangchen lightly touched the corner of his lips, a teasing smile appearing on his face, and joked, "Mei Jing, your fans are too enthusiastic~"

"Did I scare you? I'll tell them to be more rational next time when we get back."

His eyes were gentle and kind, revealing his inner warmth and care.

Mei Jing knew that Du Liangchen's body was very fragile since his injury, and even the smallest thing could affect his condition.

Du Liangchen shook his head: "I'm not scared, I'm just happy for you. I told you back then that I was your first fan, and now so many people have seen your excellence. As a long-time fan, I'm very happy."

Mei Jing thought Du Liangchen was sad. Everyone in the industry knew that if it weren't for his injury, Du Liangchen would be the rising star now.

"Compared to my performance, your program was much more beautiful. Now that you're back on the field, I'm sure you'll soon have a large following. There's no need to envy me."

Du Liangchen chuckled playfully, even his thick eyebrows rippled gently, as if he were always smiling, curved like the bright crescent moon in the night sky.

"I'm not as petty as you say. I just feel that even if I don't come back, you can still fulfill the wish we made back then."

Du Langxing patted Du Liangchen: "Stop chatting, come and train."

Du Liangchen: "Okay~"

Mei Jing also needs to start preparing for the competition: "See you on the field, Xiao Chen."

"Good~"

Du Liangchen saw a foreigner waving at him, and he recognized the man as Leopold.

"Hello, Xiao Chen, I'm so glad to hear that you're back on the field. You're a very strong opponent, and I've always looked forward to playing against you again."

"Long time no see! I'm really excited to compete against you on the same field. It'll all come down to skill in a bit!"
