Chapter 54 Yang Kaiyi's Touch
Hidden behind the old department store in Yin County is an underground roller skating rink, one of the few entertainment venues in this small county.

The faded neon lights at the entrance spelled out the words "Meteor Skating," with the missing "star" character flickering amidst the static.

The plastic curtain, stained with old cola, released a wave of heat mixed with engine oil and sweat when it was lifted.

A dozen or so pairs of roller skates were piled haphazardly on the counter, their worn wheels still spinning slightly.

The proprietress, wearing a down jacket, was chewing on a toothpick, with sunflower seed shells embedded in her fingernails, as she used a ballpoint pen to mark tally marks on a yellowed ledger.

The song "Love is not something you can buy just because you want to" was playing from the speakers, and a group of teenagers dressed in non-mainstream styles were shouting and yelling in the room.

In contrast, Yang Kaiyi and Jiang Xun, who were dressed normally, seemed somewhat out of place.

It was Yang Kaiyi's first time in such a chaotic place, and he felt both excited and a little nervous, fearing that he might encounter some ridiculous scene of being harassed by hooligans.

Fortunately, the man next to her was tall and strong enough to give her a great sense of security.

Under Jiang Xun's guidance, she slowly began to learn to ice skate.

At first, he could only toddle along holding onto the railing, but later he started to grab onto Jiang Xun's clothes and carefully glide along with him.

She looked at Jiang Xun's broad back, her eyes filled with a little shyness, a little excitement, and nothing but happiness.

"Give me your hand, I'll pull you along." Jiang Xun suddenly turned around and extended his hand to her.

She paused slightly, her eyes meeting Jiang Xun's starry gaze, and suddenly felt as if a little deer was running wild in her heart.

Hmph! He brought me here to play this game because he just wanted to hold my hand.

The girl thought with a mix of pride and shyness, but without hesitation, she placed her soft little hand into his large palm.

When the two young hands gently clasped, their heartbeats seemed to skip a beat at the same moment.

"Hold on, let's go." Jiang Xun's voice was slightly hoarse, and his palm, which was holding the girl's soft hand, was slightly sweaty.

Despite his two lifetimes, he actually gets nervous around pretty girls, but his mature nature allows him to hide it very well.

Yang Kaiyi's nervousness and shyness were completely undisguised; she appeared somewhat stiff, and her cheeks were as red as a small apple.

Jiang Xun glided forward slowly, allowing Yang Kaiyi to keep up with his speed, while also carefully feeling the slightly cool softness in his hands.

The girl looked down at her clasped hands, her eyelashes casting trembling shadows on her cheeks.

It turns out that the boy's hands were so big that they could completely cover her small hands. When their palm lines touched, it felt like an electric current was running through her veins and into her heart.

As Jiang Xun gradually accelerated, their intertwined fingers tightened even more.

"Ah! Get out of the way!"

Just then, a young female delinquent suddenly sped towards them from the front. Seeing that they couldn't stop in time, they quickly shouted for help.

Jiang Xun instinctively pulled Yang Kaiyi to the side, and the sudden acceleration startled Yang Kaiyi, causing her to scream.

The next moment, she lost her balance and fell into Jiang Xun's arms, bringing with her a gust of wind that smelled of strawberry shower gel.

Jiang Xun lost his balance and fell to the ground while holding Yang Kaiyi.

Fortunately, he now has a strong core, and he directly twisted his body so that his back was facing down, acting as a human cushion for Yang Kaiyi.

In the instant he fell, he even had the mind to reach out and press down on Yang Kaiyi's skirt, afraid that she would be exposed.

But because of his height, he pressed his hand directly onto Yang Kaiyi's pert and rounded half-moon shape.

Its amazing elasticity and softness made him instinctively grab it harder.

"Hmm~" The girl's eyes widened instantly, her cheeks turning as red as if they were about to drip water.

Her big, round, dark eyes looked at Jiang Xun with a bewildered expression.

Jiang Xun's heart skipped a beat. He knew that this level of contact was no small matter for Yang Kaiyi. Although he meant well and was worried that Yang Kaiyi might be exposed, his subconscious pinch was a bit inappropriate.

It's all because of this damn male instinct; I can't help but want to squeeze these soft, bouncy objects.

"what!"

In a flash of thought, Jiang Xun suddenly looked pained and let out a cry of agony.

The impact wasn't actually that strong; it was nothing to Jiang Xun's current physical condition. He had already put all his acting skills to use.

"Are you...are you alright?" Yang Kaiyi's expression instantly shifted from embarrassment and anger to nervousness, and a look of concern appeared on her face.

The combined weight of her and Jiang Xun was considerable; the thought of them crashing to the ground made her wince in pain.

"It's okay, don't move, let me catch my breath." Jiang Xun wrapped one arm around Yang Kaiyi's slender waist, his face still showing a pained expression.

Yang Kaiyi, who was about to get up, was so frightened that she dared not move. She thought Jiang Xun had broken a bone or something.

The slight embarrassment and annoyance that had arisen in her heart because of Jiang Xun's subconscious actions had long since vanished.

At this moment, Jiang Xun held the warm and soft woman in his arms, his heart was already burning with desire, and the beast within him was about to burst forth.

He could only reluctantly push Yang Kaiyi up and make her stand aside, while he himself hunched over and leaned against the railing.

At this moment, Yang Kaiyi, having left Jiang Xun's strong chest and warm embrace, felt inexplicably empty inside.

This made her feel somewhat ashamed, so she quickly dismissed these chaotic thoughts and asked Jiang Xun with concern:
"Where did you fall? Do you need to go to the hospital?"

"It's nothing, I'll be fine after a rest." Jiang Xun waved his hand, still pretending to be in some pain.

It was only then that the young woman who had almost bumped into them ran over to apologize.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, is your boyfriend alright?" The young woman had non-mainstream red hair, heavy eyeshadow, and a lip piercing.

Although she was speaking to Yang Kaiyi, her eyes seemed to be glued to Jiang Xun's handsome and refined face.

Yang Kaiyi originally wanted to deny it, but seeing the woman's eyes shining, he felt inexplicably uncomfortable.

So she said calmly, "He's fine, but please be more careful next time."

After she finished speaking, she noticed Jiang Xun's strange look next to her, and her cheeks immediately flushed. She glared at him, her face red.

The young woman was completely oblivious to the flirtatious exchange between the two. She ignored Yang Kaiyi beside her and went straight to Jiang Xun, saying:
"You don't seem to be feeling well. Let me help you to sit down for a while." As she spoke, she even prepared to take your hand.

"Uh, no need, no need, my girlfriend can help me over." Jiang Xun quickly waved his hand, then winked at Yang Kaiyi.

The latter blushed and took his arm, and he leaned against Yang Kaiyi.

The young woman was turned down. She had originally wanted to add him on QQ to flirt with him; such a tall and handsome young man was exactly her type.

Unfortunately, the girl next to her was far more outstanding than her, making it impossible for her to steal him away. She could only retreat in disappointment.

Yang Kaiyi helped Jiang Xun sit on the sofa by the sidelines, and the latter said with a grin:

"Girlfriend, your boyfriend wants to drink milk tea."

"Drink my ass! I'm not..." Yang Kaiyi reached out and pinched Jiang Xun's arm in embarrassment and anger, but didn't dare to use force.

"Wait!"

She then glared at Jiang Xun and turned to walk towards the milk tea counter.
