On a winter afternoon, a faint chill filled the air as the city streets were adorned with twinkling lights and winter decorations, adding a festive atmosphere to the season. Gu Pan and Zhou Ziheng bundled up in heavy winter clothing and joined a group of friends at an indoor ice skating rink in the city center, ready to experience the joy of winter.
"Brother, I've never skated before, you have to teach me!" Gu Pan said excitedly as he put on his ice skates.
Zhou Ziheng had a relaxed smile on his lips: "Don't worry, Xiao Tauzi, I will take good care of you. But I can't guarantee you won't stumble a few times."
They put on their ice skates and stepped onto the ice. Gu Pan seemed a bit clumsy, holding onto the railing and skating cautiously. Zhou Ziheng, on the other hand, seemed much more at ease, gliding lightly on the ice and even making a few simple moves from time to time.
Gu Pan looked at Zhou Ziheng's skilled figure and couldn't help but admire, saying, "Brother, how are you so amazing! Why am I so clumsy?"
Zhou Ziheng skated back to Gu Pan's side and reached out to help her, saying, "Don't worry, Xiao Tauzi, take it slow. Look, first slide like this, then slowly turn." He patiently taught Gu Pan the basic ice skating skills.
With Zhou Ziheng's guidance, Gu Pan gradually gained some confidence. As she learned, she began to complain, "Bro, are you teaching me to skate or to do ballet? Your movements are so graceful, I almost thought I was watching ice ballet!"
Zhou Ziheng gave a mocking smile, " Xiao Tauzi, aren't you just jealous? Besides, I'm being graceful to help you learn properly and not fall too hard."
Gu Pan listened to Zhou Ziheng's guidance and tried hard to skate, but she still lost her balance from time to time and almost fell a few times. Each time, Zhou Ziheng was there to reach out and prevent her from falling.
"Brother, I feel like I'm making some progress!" Gu Pan exclaimed excitedly, her eyes shining with confidence.
Zhou Ziheng nodded with a smile, "Yes, you're already much better than when you started. It looks like you have a talent for sports too."
They skated on the ice for a while, gradually getting used to the feeling of skating and starting to try more moves. Zhou Ziheng guided from the side, occasionally making jokes to make her laugh.
On the ice rink, other skaters are also enjoying the winter fun, with laughter and cheers filling the air. The twinkling lights create a magical atmosphere on the ice.
The interaction between Gu Pan and Zhou Ziheng on the ice is filled with joy and intimacy. They skate together at times, and at other times, they chase each other, with continuous laughter and cheers.
Finally, they got tired and sat in the rest area by the ice rink. Zhou Ziheng leaned back on the chair in the rest area, with his eyes closed, seemingly enjoying the tranquility of the moment. His lazy posture was like that of a big cat accustomed to napping in the winter sun. Even on the winter ice rink, his demeanor still exuded a sense of leisurely contentment.
Gu Pan sat next to him, gently swinging her feet, with a carefree smile on her face. She took out a thermos from her backpack and carefully poured out hot chocolate, making sure it wouldn't spill. The movement looked both clumsy and cute, perfectly matching her lively and cheerful personality.
"Come, brother, hot chocolate." Gu Pan She handed over a cup, with a bright smile.
Zhou Ziheng opened his eyes, lazily took the cup, and a hint of a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. "Thank you, Xiao Tauzi. Are you feeling happy today?"
Gu Pan suddenly laughed even more brightly: "Happy! Brother, we should come ice skating often in the future!"
They sat there, holding warm hot chocolate in their hands, watching the skaters glide by. Zhou Ziheng looked at the happy couples on the ice rink, and a hint of mischief flashed in his eyes as he turned to Gu Pan: "The way you almost fell today was really funny, you silly little thing."
Gu Pan Pretending to be angry, she patted his arm and said, "Oh, big brother, teasing me like this is not fair!"
Zhou ZihengHis lips curled into a mischievous smile. "Fair? On the ice rink, you almost dragged me down. That's what I call unfair."
Gu Pan Sticking out his tongue, he retorted, "Brother, you skated so well and yet pretended to almost fall. It was clearly intentional!"
Zhou Ziheng Shrugged innocently, "How could I possibly do it on purpose? Do you want to see me fall?"
Gu Pan made a grimace: "Maybe, watching my brother fall must be very interesting!"
Zhou Ziheng pretended to be shocked: "The so heartless Xiao Tauzi, actually wants to see me suffer."
They banter and tease each other, creating a relaxed and joyful atmosphere. The lights on the ice rink shine and reflect on their smiling faces, adding warmth and joy to this tranquil winter moment.
In a corner of the ice rink's resting area, Zhou Ziheng and Gu Pan sit on a comfortable bench, each holding a steaming cup of hot chocolate. Despite the cold outside, their mood is warm and pleasant. Zhou Ziheng leans back on the chair, lazily stretching, looking very relaxed. His gaze seems to flicker with scrutiny as he watches the skaters on the rink.
Gu Pan sat upright, her eyes sparkling with excitement. Her gaze followed the movements of the skaters, occasionally swaying gently to the music.
Suddenly, Gu Pan's eyes fixed on a novice skater who had just fallen. She couldn't help but laugh out loud, "Look, that person skates just as clumsily as I do!" Her laughter was filled with playfulness and a hint of self-mockery.
Zhou Ziheng Looking up, there was a playful glint in his eyes. A sly smile tugged at the corner of his mouth as he said, "Hmm, it seems you're not alone, Xiao Tauzi. But at least you have me, this excellent coach." There was a hint of casual pride in his voice.
Gu Pan made a face, pretending to be displeased as she retorted, "Brother, you being an 'excellent coach' is just finding joy in watching me fall!" Her tone carried a hint of resentment, but her eyes held a smile.
Zhou Ziheng shrugged, with an innocent expression on his face, as if saying, "I did teach you seriously, it's just that you're too clumsy." There was a hint of teasing in his voice.
Gu Pan muttered, "Brother, you're really bad." Her voice was small, but it carried a hint of coquetry, clearly she wasn't really angry.
In the joyful atmosphere of the ice rink, their mood also became particularly cheerful. In the surrounding crowd, some were learning to skate, while others were already skating swiftly, creating a lively scene.
At this moment, their friends also gradually skated to the rest area. A group of people sat together, sharing their skating experiences and anecdotes. Laughter and lively conversation filled the air, adding much joy to this winter afternoon.
"Pian Pian, you falling just now was really hilarious!" a friend said with a big smile.
Gu Pan pretended to be angry, but couldn't hide the smile on their face: "Oh, come on, stop laughing at me. But next time, I'll definitely skate better!"
Zhou Ziheng looked on Gu Pan with a doting gleam in his eyes. He leisurely said, " Xiao Tauzi may not be good at ice skating, but at least she's very brave, which is already quite good."
Upon hearing Zhou Ziheng's words, Gu Pan showed a hint of pride on her face: "See, brother still loves me the most."
Under the night sky, the ice rink seems to be shrouded in a mysterious veil of soft light, creating a dreamy atmosphere. The lights on the ice flicker with the rhythm of the music, as if inviting every skater into this dreamland.
"Come on, Xiao Tauzi, let's skate a little more," Zhou Ziheng's voice rang in Gu Pan's ears, his eyes carrying a hint of mischief.
Gu Pan The anticipation in her eyes shone like a galaxy of stars as she firmly grasped Zhou Ziheng's hand, ready to step onto the ice once again. Her eyes sparkled with love for skating and anticipation for the night ahead.
This time, Gu Pan appeared more confident on the ice, although her movements were still a bit clumsy, her posture was more natural. Her face carried a childlike pure joy, as if each glide brought her endless happiness.
Zhou Ziheng is by her side, seemingly the one who always remains calm and lazy as a guardian. His graceful and leisurely gliding, shuttling on the ice with Gu Pan, they seem to be dancing a dance that belongs only to them in this dreamy light.
Zhou Ziheng occasionally lets go of Gu Pan's hand, letting her glide alone, and then quickly skates past, suddenly appearing in front of her, startling her. There's a playful smile on his face: "Seeing you panic, it's really fun, little silly."
Gu Pan She pretended to respond in an angry tone, "Brother, you're so mean scaring me like that!" But she couldn't hide the smile on her face.
Their laughter echoed on the ice rink, blending with the joyful voices of other skaters, creating a night filled with happiness and laughter.
In the end, they finished their last lap on the ice rink. This lap was particularly long, and it seemed like neither of them wanted this beautiful time to end. They walked hand in hand out of the ice rink, both with satisfied and happy smiles on their faces.
"Brother, I had so much fun today! I can't wait to come again next time," the voice was filled with anticipation.
Zhou Ziheng smiled and looked at her with gentle eyes, "Okay, we'll come again next time. But next time, you have to be careful and not give me the chance to laugh at you for falling again."
They walked on the way back home, the stars in the night sky twinkling as if witnessing this beautiful moment. The memories of this night were as beautiful as a dream, forever imprinted in their hearts.
