Chapter 227: New and Old...Completely Forgotten

"Don't let go! Ahhhh!" A series of high-pitched screams almost pierced through the roof, accompanied by a dull thud as Xi Wu fell to the ground.

Chen Xiaohua held onto the railing next to her, sliding steadily for a few steps, and burst into laughter without giving her boyfriend any face.

Chen Xiaocao chuckled on the side, covering her mouth, and even little Ping'an had a smile on her face as she expertly skated into a figure-eight and slid over to Xi Wu.

"I got it, I got it," Chen Xiaohua hurried over to intercept, worried that with Ping'an's young age and Xi Wu's size, it wouldn't be good if she fell instead of helping him up.

When Xiang Chen came back with the water bottle, the three girls, with one hand on the railing each, joined forces to lift Xi Wu. There were a few close calls where he almost slipped again, but with the combined effort of the three girls, they managed to help Xi Wu stand steady with the railing.

The three girls had smiles on their faces, not mocking Xi Wu but finding his tumbling quite amusing. Initially, Chen Xiaocao and Ping'an tried to hold back their laughter, but once Chen Xiaohua started laughing, they couldn't help but join in.

Xiang Chen handed out the water bottle to each of them. Inside was homemade sour plum soup, perfect for cooling down in the heat. They leaned against the railing to drink, but once finished, they had to put the water bottle away as eating and drinking were not allowed inside the skating rink.

Everyone else had finished their drinks, but Xi Wu hadn't started yet. He held onto the water bottle with one hand and the railing with the other, afraid to let go for fear of falling again.

Xiang Chen chuckled and helped him open the water bottle before handing it back. Honestly, after seeing Xi Wu fall so miserably today, any lingering resentment Xiang Chen had towards him seemed to vanish, and he felt unusually cheerful.

But he also understood Xi Wu very well. Skating, like riding a bicycle, came naturally to some people, while others could learn after a few falls. And then some seemed to be in constant battle with these things, falling time after time, never quite mastering it.

Take Xi Wu for example.

Xiang Chen originally thought that since Xi Wu had some martial arts training, as he claimed, having been forced by his grandfather to stand in a horse stance on top of a plum blossom pile in his childhood, he should learn relatively quickly. Xiang Chen even hoped that he would be able to teach Chen Xiaohua or Little Ping'an first.

As it turned out, little Ping'an was the first to learn. The little girl had exceptional balance skills. After putting on her skates and holding onto Xiang Chen's hand, she didn't need much instruction and could skate a few steps on her own. When Xiang Chen taught her she would hold onto the railing and skate back and forth by herself, and before long, she could let Xiang Chen take her around the rink.

Now she could skate freely without Xiang Chen's support, although her control wasn't quite there yet, and she didn't dare go to crowded areas.

Chen Xiaohua was also doing well. After a few falls, she could now skate slowly around the rink by herself, although she didn't dare venture into the middle and would occasionally need to hold onto the railing.

Compared to them, Xi Wu was a typical example of what not to do. Not only did he fail to learn on his own, but when Xiang Chen taught him, he kept pulling him down, tripping over him, and falling until he almost forgot how to skate.
