Chapter 448: What Did You Eat Growing Up?
Su Li took out her phone and played a piece of music before placing it on the ground. Softly, the gentle and beautiful music was heard coming out the phone like tranquil flowing mountain water. It was melodious, delicate and wonderful as it resonated in this near empty roller skating rink.
She closed her eyes and danced like an elegant butterfly. First, she held out her arms like ‘<>’ with her hands meeting each other, before she started flying through the space between the glasses. She looked like a classical woman who stepped out from an antique painting at this moment.
“Really interesting, they’re really performing Figure Roller Skating!”
The owner of the roller skating rink observed quietly with fascination. He knew a lot about Figure Roller Skating. What the girl, Su Li, was doing right now was a level one difficulty routine – Snake Walk.
“She should be cutting (skating) back right after and make the second set of S.” The owner touched his chin and thought secretly.
And the situation was just like he thought, Su Li immediately turned around after finishing her first set of the Snake Walk and started doing it backward, forming another set of S.
The repetition movement of her legs sliding back and forth was mesmerising, smooth and natural, creating great visual impact!
“It’s your turn.” When Su Li finished, she got out of the way and offered Xiao Luo the stage, although she didn’t think that he would be able to do it.
“I have seen similar videos on the Internet. What is the name of this sport?” Xiao Luo asked.
“It’s Figure Roller Skating, competitions are being held around the world.” Su Li replied.
“Oh, I see.”
Xiao Luo nodded his head, then skated forward. He gradually picked up his speed while recalling the way Su Li had done it just now in his mind. He held out his arms like this ‘<>’ and started to “snake walk”.
He’s actually going to do it?
Su Li couldn’t believe her eyes. She thought that Xiao Luo would admit defeat. She didn’t expect Xiao Luo to actually do it, even without hesitation at that. Even more impressive, the fact that he was very skilled at it. Is he a born figure skater?
“Wow, Dad can also dance like this.” Su Bei blinked her eyes in surprise.
Luo Pingxiang was beyond shocked. She felt that she had met a legendary genius who would only appear once in a hundred years. It had only been over ten minutes between the “beginner” Xiao Luo, who wasn’t able to keep his balance, and the “veteran” Xiao Luo, who looked like a veteran who was experienced in Figure Roller Skating. This learning ability was too terrifying indeed, he was basically copying other people’s actions and how they do it.
Xiao Luo finished the routine! He basically carried out the exact same moves Su Li made moments ago.
The twenty glasses weren’t nudged from their positions, which showed Xiao Luo did not make a single collision with them. Although it was only a basic routine with level one difficulty, it still left them stunned.
“Miss Su, have I done anything wrong?” Xiao Luo asked.
He had absolutely no intention of provoking her. He was just really interested in how he performed. However Su Li didn’t think so, and assumed that he was mocking her.
She became angry, she said, “All your actions are done very well, but this is only a level one difficulty routine. I will increase the difficulty this time.”
She was now really interested in how high the difficulty could this man follow her to.
Her eyes then moved to the 20 lined up glasses. She took a deep breath, and then skated toward the glasses. When passing the first cup, the heels of both her feet were tightly attached together, she then continued passing through the rest by going side to side.
“The Crab Walk, a level two difficulty routine.”
The owner lifted the corner of his eye slightly as he subconsciously stated the technique of Su Li’s routine.
There were five total actions: crossing the glasses like a crab by putting the heels together, followed by passing with both legs horizontally, then separating the heels and put one foot forward, lastly, crossing it with one foot backward like an X.
Because the difficulty of the routine escalated, the appreciation value of it also increased. Also, Su Li’s figure was absolutely top-notch in the first place. Dressed in white, she looked like a Swan princess and seemed ethereal.
“Mom dances so beautifully, Beibei loves it!”
Su Bei squinted and applauded, her eyes narrowed into two lovely crescent moons.
Luo Pingxiang also applauded and softly praised Su Li, “Sister, you really are too good!”
She could not help but ask herself, Can she do this herself? No! At best, she would be able to skate skillfully. Moreso, Su Li’s Figure Roller Skating carried its own unique charm that she could only hope to achieve.
But she knew that she couldn’t because she had no talent, nor had the time and energy to learn it.
“Swish~”
Su Li stopped with a T-brake and turned to look at Xiao Luo. She was expressionless but her meaning was obvious.
Xiao Luo also did not speak, he just carefully analyzed Su Li’s every step in his mind. Right after that, he skated towards the twenty glasses without missing a beat.
In the first sequence, he “crab step” by putting his heels together;
In the second sequence…
The third…
Fourth…
……
He was like Su Li’s shadow as he re-demonstrated Su Li’s movements. Su Li was flexible and beautiful, while he was both rigid and soft, AND handsome and cool.
“Great… Very fierce…” Luo Pingxiang gaped as she thought out loud.
Su Bei didn’t know what Pingxiang was talking about, but she knew that her father was doing very good, so she cheered and applauded Xiao Luo.
Su Li was once again, shocked. She was now completely unsure of Xiao Luo’s skill, but she didn’t believe that this would continue, hence she increased the difficulty of the routine again. She was like a fairy descended from Mount Tai. spreading unparalleled charm and performed another routine.
“Crossed transverse bracket movement, and forward windmill… A level three difficulty routine. Oh, it’s the Transverse X Jump, with her feet alternately crossing between the gaps of the glasses while going backwards. This is a level four difficulty routine. Wait, the difficulty has escalated even further. It is a level five difficulty routine now.”
The owner was dumbfounded. He couldn’t help but wonder if he was actually seeing a professional figure skater performing in his roller skating rink. And there were two of them! Both had mastered the essentials thoroughly, and their performance was particularly shocking. They looked just like the Figure Roller Skating videos on the Internet. No, it was even more shocking, gorgeous and beautiful than those in the videos.
However, the one who was most stunned was Luo Pingxiang. She clearly knew that Xiao Luo was a beginner, however, she was now seeing for herself that Xiao Luo could also perform fancy roller skating tricks just like her sister, Su Li. Moreover, as long as Su Li did it, he would be able to do the same thing. It was incredible. Simply incredible!
Of course, Su Li was as flabbergasted as Pingxiang, and felt that Xiao Luo’s learning ability was just as terrifying as the devil. Who would believe that this man was a beginner, who fell just ten minutes ago, right after putting on his shoes?
“What did you eat growing up?” Su Li could not help but ask, she stared at him so intently as if she wanted to see through Xiao Luo’s body.
Xiao Luo laughed lightly, “I just eat anything, why?”
