Chapter 446 - Roller Skating Rinks (2/2)
Xiao Luo rushed to her and helped her up.
The little girl did not cry but smiled at him when she got up.
“Was it painful?” Xiao Luo asked.
“Don’t worry, Daddy, it was not painful!” the little girl said.
“Be careful, don’t skate too fast,” Xiao Luo reminded her.
“Okay.”
Su Xiaobei nodded obediently, pulled Xiao Luo’s hand, and said, “Come, Daddy, let’s race with Mummy and sister Pingxiang.”
Xiao Luo rubbed her tiny nose and said, “Okay.”
He put on a pair of skates and started skating. He thought it was simple, but he fell unexpectedly after walking for a few steps, landing hard on his bum.
“Daddy, are you okay?” Su Xiaobei ran over and looked at him.
“I am fine.”
Xiao Luo replied with an awkward smile. It was really embarrassing and made worse as he had screwed up in front of the ladies. He felt terrible about himself.
“Mr. Xiao Luo, have you skated before? Luo Pingxiang came over and asked in concern.
Xiao Luo stood up with her help and shook his head, “It’s my first time.”
“Oh, then falling can’t be avoided. If you fall again, don’t land with your hands sticking out, you will hurt your wrists easily,” Luo Pingxiang said, sharing her experience.
“Okay.”
Xiao Luo smiled and nodded.
SWOOSH~
Su Li approached gracefully to take a short break, stopping right before him. Her curves were divine, like a goddess, and she laughed, “Your landing was a cool move!”
That was obviously sarcasm.
Xiao Luo was left speechless and did not respond to her.
“Keep practicing, even Su Xiaobei is better than you. How can you lose to her as her father? That’s so embarrassing. By the way, this is only Xiaobei’s second time skating.”
Su Li smiled as the opportunity to smack down on this arrogant guy had given her unparalleled joy. As she finished speaking, she pulled Su Xiaobei away and started gliding out on the gigantic rink, leaving beautiful trails on the rink.
“Good luck!”
Luo Pingxiang also cheered for Xiao Luo and then followed Su Li.
Phew… to think that she was looking down on me!
Xiao Luo let out a long sigh and felt awkward.
However, he would not waste points on exchanging the skating skills with the system as it was completely unnecessary. He planned to learn it gradually.
He observed Su Li’s moves closely and processed it mentally, dissecting them into minute parts. When her left leg moved forward, her right leg was propelled her forward and vice versa. When she stopped with one leg, her calf acted as support, and she would then use it to push herself forward.
To prevent herself from losing balance, she would bend forward slightly to lower her center of gravity to obtain a more stable posture.
As he mimicked her moves closely, he suddenly worked out the method to skate well rather quickly. He could catch up to Su Li after skating around the rink three times, and it only got easier as he progressed. And, just like that, he was suddenly in his element and could skate however he liked.
