He was about to say a close friend, but he changed his mind .
Were they really close?
It had been five years since they last contacted each other . Could they be considered still close friends if they no longer kept in contact?
Su Yan shook his head to prevent himself from thinking further . He refused to let himself be troubled by meaningless thoughts .
He held Xiaojiao’s hand and led her to the skating rink .
‘We no longer keep in contact,
And I hope you don’t mind;
We can only blame ourselves for not getting together back then .
You seem happier now,
So there’s no point in me staying .
We’ve cut all ties,
But that doesn’t mean I don’t miss you;
You’re still on my mind wherever I go .
And I’m trying to forget,
To erase whatever we had, which we chose to give up on . ’
It was a Friday and there were many people in the skating rink . There was even a queue at the payment counter . He didn’t know the name of the song that was playing in the mall .
But it made him fall into a reverie .
He gazed afar . The slender girl was like a little elf that emerged from a forest . She looked so pure, energetic, and beautiful .
She spun in circles on one foot, like a dancing butterfly .
Xiaojiao enjoyed observing people . When she saw Su Yan staring at the girl who was figure skating, she said, “Uncle, it’s that beautiful sister skating . ”
“Mm . ” Su Yan nodded, his gaze still fixed on her .
He liked the feeling in his heart right now . His heart was at ease as he watched her skating so breezily .
She started to slow . When she stopped, Su Yan happened to be facing her side-view .
She seemed mysterious to him .
He wanted to walk over and remove her mysterious veil .
Or perhaps he had this feeling because he couldn’t see her front-view, so he only had a vague impression of her .
“Yay!” Xiaojiao cheered as she clapped .
Su Yan was curious about her reaction . He frowned at her in confusion . “Why are you so happy?”
Xiaojiao pressed her lips and replied, “Mommy said that Uncle doesn’t like women . She’s worried that Uncle wouldn’t find Xiaojiao an aunt . ”
Su Yan’s expression darkened . Su Yue was bad-mouthing him at home?
“Can we find that Sister later?”
Su Yan laughed and didn’t answer her .
They bought ice-skating equipment the previous time but they didn’t bring it today . Actually, they could rent a set, but Young Master Su was slightly mysophobic . He refused to wear a set that someone else had used before .
Besides, money was not a problem for him .
So he bought a new set of skating equipment .
There were many kids in the rink today . Xiaojiao was excited and she envied the kids who could skate by themselves and skate well, too . How she wished she could instantly learn how to skate .
“Uncle, hold my hand . Teach me quickly . ”
She grabbed Su Yan’s hand and pulled him further into the rink . She had just returned from Country M so she was used to speaking in English . Whenever she was anxious, she would speak in English .
Su Yan smiled affectionately when he saw her anxious figure . “Xiaojiao, Uncle will teach you how to fly . ”
Then he quickly skated a few rounds around Xiaojiao .
Suddenly, while she was unaware, he bent over and scooped her up . He grabbed the area under her armpits and lifted her high above the ground . He carried her and quickly skated to the center of the rink .
