"You make it sound so heroic …"
Su Qi didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
After entering the skating rink, I bought a ticket and changed into my old skates. I held onto the wall and struggled to walk to the entrance. Su Qi was already there, waiting for me.
"Miss, come, take my hand. I'll skate with you."
He held out his palm.
I raised my hand and was about to place it on his palm when I suddenly retracted it stubbornly and snorted. "Brother Su Qi, you're underestimating me!"
He was taken aback.
Brother Su Qi — when I was dating him, I liked to call him Brother Su Qi. Occasionally, when I was angry, I'd call him Su Qi.
I was also stunned by the way I'd addressed him. I lowered my head and held onto the railing to get on the ice.
It had been a long time since I'd last stepped on ice skates. I was really rusty.
I had to hold onto the railing as I skated step by step.
He was very patient. He accompanied me step by step, slowly sliding down the stairs.
"Everything here has changed a lot in the eight years you've been gone. Only this skating rink remains the same."
Even Su Qi found it unbelievable. "Young children these days don't like to play this game. I'm also curious as to why this skating rink hasn't closed down yet."
I held onto the railing and walked step by step.
The road beneath my feet was so difficult, just like the road I'd walked for the past eight years. It was heavy and unsteady.
Su Qi mustered up his courage and asked, "How have you been all these years in America?"
I replied, "Yes, everything went well."
Perhaps it was because my face was too calm that it wasn't convincing.
I asked him, "What about you? How have you been? "
Su Qi said bluntly, "Not good."
"…"
"Dongyu and I haven't been doing well."
"…"
Su Qi said, "Xiachun, did you know? After you left, Dongyu seemed to be sick. He went on a hunger strike like a madman. He didn't eat or drink, locked himself in his room, smashed everything he could, and used all the means he could to protest. He told me that if he had been a step too late, he would have found you. He originally wanted to take you away from this city, but due to a freak combination of factors, he returned home and was detained by his father. He desperately returned to the bus station and saw you get on the bus. He couldn't catch up with you no matter how hard he tried. He was frantically looking for you, but he couldn't find you. "
I suddenly stopped and raised my head to look at him.
"Why are you telling me this?"
Su Qi turned around and fixed his gaze on me. "After that, Dongyu became anorexic. Once, I saw Auntie kneeling in front of him and carefully pushing the bowl to him. Then she coaxed him and lied to him, saying, 'Eat, eat well, I'll return Xiachun to you!' However, Dongyu still refused to eat."
"What … what happened after that?"
Su Qi smiled. "Later, Dongyu received treatment in the hospital for a month before he got better. I don't know what kind of agreement he reached with your parents, but he studied obediently and got into a key university in the country. Then, he graduated and started his own business. "
"…"
"How about me?"
Su Qi smiled self-deprecatingly. "Every day after you left, I thought about you."
I suddenly didn't dare to look at him anymore. I held the railing and looked ahead. Gritting my teeth, I walked forward.
Su Qi caught up with me easily. "What's wrong? You don't look right. "
I avoided him and walked forward.
