Rebirth: Slice-of-life Cultivation-Chapter 656 - 407 Roller Skating_3

Xue Yuantong conservatively said, "I’m not very good."

Jiang Ning began teaching her to skate, hand in hand. At first, Xue Yuantong was terrified to let go, fearing that she might fall.

It was painful for sure, but more than that, she was afraid of losing face.

On the other side, with nobody to help her, Xue Chuchu held onto the railing, cautious and careful as if treading on thin ice. In the distance, Xu Yan, an expert at roller skating, glided over and noticed how beautiful Xue Chuchu was.

Xu Yan, having served as a class monitor and being good at socializing, generously said, "You’ve never played before, have you? Let me help you."

Xu Yan smiled brightly, exuding charm and making it easy for others to feel fondness toward her.

When Xue Chuchu saw her enthusiasm, she hesitated for a moment but agreed. freewёbnoνel.com

Cui Yu saw Xu Yan go to help someone and he moved to the edge to take a seat on a bench and rest.

Wang Longlong said, "Brother Cui, what’s the matter with you? She’s the one who broke Brother Nan’s heart."

Cui Yu replied, "You don’t understand, I’m taking back some face for Brother Nan."

Meng Gui asked, "And your way of taking back face is to chase after her?"

"Of course, where Brother Nan fell down is where I stand up for him!" Cui Yu boasted, with a righteous glow on his face.

After about fifteen minutes, some kids arrived at the rink. Seeing them skate smoothly without assistance, Xue Yuantong suddenly felt rather embarrassed.

She held onto the railing and earnestly said, "Actually, I can skate."

Jiang Ning went with her, and without the little tag-along holding him back, he showed off some of his strength and his strong coordination allowed him to try some flashy tricks.

He picked up speed and in an instant, he was crossing a good half of the rink.

Then, Jiang Ning twisted his legs, reversed, and skated backward, drawing a cool arc with his roller shoes before stopping with a showy brake.

Xue Yuantong clung to the railing, staring wide-eyed.

When Xu Yan saw this, she was quite surprised. She could perform that kind of stop too, but the difference was that Jiang Ning had been moving really fast, which was not without danger.

She would only dare to try it when she was in particularly good form.

Jiang Ning kept playing until it was almost noon. In the meantime, he went out to buy a few cups of iced fruit tea and shared them with Ma Shicheng and Cui Yu’s group, remembering that they had come forward to cheer for him at the little temple fair before.

Xu Yan also received a cup, after all, she had spent quite a while teaching Xue Chuchu.

When Jiang Ning left the skating rink with the two girls, Ma Shicheng suggested, "Let’s head out, we’ll have clay pot chicken for lunch."

Wang Longlong and Meng Gui had no objections, but was Cui Yu who said, "Wait for me."

He pulled Meng Gui aside to consult with him, "Brother Gui, help me get her QQ."

Meng Gui asked, "Why don’t you ask yourself?"

Cui Yu was self-aware, "She has a bad impression of me, I’d definitely get rejected."

Meng Gui and Cui Yu were close friends, so faced with his brother’s request, Meng Gui agreed; after all, it wasn’t him asking for the QQ, so there was no need to be nervous.

He, wearing his roller shoes, approached Xu Yan who was still practicing her skills.

Xu Yan, upon seeing Meng Guifa’s unusual hairstyle and not considering him a serious person, prepared to reject him when she realized she didn’t know him.

Meng Gui solemnly said, "My friend created a new students group for Fourth Middle School, and many new students have questions. We can’t manage it all, and we heard you’re good at management, why don’t you join and be an administrator?"

After hearing this, Xu Yan softened a bit,

Meng Gui lured her with some more promises, and Xu Yan, adopting a ’let’s give it a try’ attitude, gave out her QQ number.

Meng Gui reached into his pocket and realized he had left his phone at the front desk; he didn’t want to risk breaking it while skating.

If he went back now, it would look too shabby. Meng Gui wasn’t going to do that; he had a better idea and thought of a way to showcase his smarts:

"Just tell me now, and I’ll add you when I get back."

Xu Yan recited a string of numbers.

Meng Gui repeated them in his mind twice, confident he had them down.

He skated back to the front desk,

but as soon as he got his phone out, damn, what was Xu Yan’s QQ number again?

No matter how hard he tried, he just couldn’t remember.

Cui Yu inquired, "Did you get it?"

Meng Gui was embarrassed and sheepishly replied, "Xu Yan thinks I’m with you and refused to give it."
