806 Lake
Fifth Sister Ye Fei proudly shook the drink in her hand. That was true. The top layer of the fridge was only about 10 to 20 degrees. Compared to the subzero temperature outside, it was really at room temperature.
The other sisters were also amused. Only Ye Xuan was speechless.
Then, he spoke.
“Aren’t you afraid of a stomach ache? If you have a stomachache, you won’t be able to go out to play tomorrow. You have to think carefully.”
“What should I be afraid of?”
Fifth Sister Ye Fei spoke nonchalantly.
“I’m a princess. Why would I be afraid of a drink? Don’t worry.”
With that, she opened the drink and took a sip. Then, she picked up her chopsticks and picked up a piece of meat to eat.
The other sisters also started eating. Seeing how confident his Fifth Sister was, Ye Xuan didn’t say anything else as long as she wasn’t afraid.
After a while, the meal was over. They rested in the living room for a while, watched the television, and chatted. When the weather turned late, the sisters went upstairs to sleep.
Ye Xuan didn’t waste any time. He went upstairs in three steps and fell asleep on the bed.
The cold wind outside was gentle. When the wind was strong, there would be whistling sounds. The sound of the wind blowing against the glass of the window was like a lullaby that could calm people down, causing the sisters and Ye Xuan to sleep soundly.
The next day.
Early in the morning, after breakfast, the sisters brought Ye Xuan into the car with their bags and set off for the North Lake to play.
Fifth Sister Ye Fei was just as she said. She woke up early in the morning and was fine. There were no signs of cold or stomach pain.
She was considered lucky.
After all, on this cold day, although the drink was at room temperature, it was also very cold. When one drank it, they could clearly feel a stream of cold water enter their stomach. When this cold water came into contact with their stomachs, it was very easy to damage their stomachs.
Therefore, most people who had stomach aches did not dare to drink cold water like this. Once they drank it, they would feel nauseous in a short while. Their stomachs would feel uncomfortable, their stomachs would ache, and they might even have diarrhea.
He didn’t know why the people in the West didn’t like to drink hot water. Most of them drank it when it was cold. Speaking of which, they probably didn’t drink much water, and most of them disliked the trouble.
There were things like brewing dried orange peel to reduce oiliness, brewing honeysuckle to reduce heatiness, fruit tea, wolfberries, and tea leaves that had been passed down for thousands of years.
This also caused most Chinese people to like to drink hot water. Even if they only drank hot water, no one would be used to drinking it after drinking it for a long time. This was because their mouths would become tasteless after drinking it for a long time. They still had to brew something for its taste.
After a while, the car arrived at the North Lake.
This place was considered a park, but there were no tickets. It was just a public place.
The moment they entered the huge venue, they were surrounded by beautiful green scenery. Accompanied by the refreshing fragrance of osmanthus in the air, the sisters were very intoxicated.
After walking through two or three walkways and following the signs, they arrived at the North Lake after a while. At a glance, a huge lake was in front of them. Due to the weather, it had already frozen into ice and was white.
There were many people gathered in twos and threes around. They were all tourists who had come to the North Lake to play. There were also small peddlers selling various snacks and things.
The fragrance spread in all directions and swayed along with the north wind.
When the sisters saw the North Lake, their faces immediately revealed even more smiles. They pointed over and smiled.
“Look, we’ve arrived at the North Lake. It’s frozen. It feels so thick.”
“Hurry up and take a look!”
“Follow me, Little Brother!”
As she spoke, her sisters jogged to the North Lake and stood by the shore, looking at the thick ice in the North Lake with smiles on their faces.
At this moment, there were already many people playing on the lake. Because the ice was thick, there was no need to be afraid of it shattering. It could completely withstand a person’s weight.
This made the North Lake a place of entertainment that attracted the attention of many tourists in winter. They were very happy to play here.
His sisters looked at the people playing on the lake and were envious. Then, they pulled Ye Xuan under the fence and carefully came to the lake.
As she slipped a little, Fourth Sister Ye Chan almost slipped. Fortunately, Ye Xuan reacted quickly and grabbed Fourth Sister Ye Chan. Otherwise, she would have been injured today.
The ice was also quite hard. It would be quite painful to fall.
However, this made Fourth Sister Ye Chan a little afraid. She half-squatted and grabbed her sisters with a frightened expression.
“Oh my god, it’s so smooth. Hold on to me!”
This caused the other sisters to roll their eyes and mock her.
“You’re already so frightened by just ice. You’re skiing for nothing.”
“That’s right. It’s fine as long as you maintain your balance. Try it. Otherwise, how can you skate? Don’t tell me you want to stand and watch.”
“Hurry up, hurry up. Stand up first. We’ll bring you around.”
“Little Brother, can you do it? Do you want me to hold your hand?”
Ye Xuan rolled his eyes and thought to himself, “Who are you looking down on?” As he thought about it, he slid forward with force. Then, he raised one foot above his head and bent down. He held the ice with one hand and performed a sideshow for his sisters.
His sisters were stunned. They did not expect their little brother to be so good at playing. Then, they followed him. However, they simply slid in a very ordinary way.
Ye Xuan’s show attracted the attention of many people on the shore and on the ice. They all revealed surprised expressions.
They didn’t expect Ye Xuan to be so good at playing on the ice. He could even do acrobatics without skates and was so stable.
After all, that action was very difficult. Usually, it was already very good if one could stand steadily on the ice for a while. It was indeed rare to see someone like Ye Xuan, who was not only putting on a sideshow but was also so stable.
It was as if he had become one with the ice.
The novice cut the vegetables one by one with the kitchen knife. One could tell at a glance that he was very unfamiliar with it. Meanwhile, the veteran cut the vegetables as if he was one with the knife. He cut quickly and well, and he was not afraid of cutting his hand.
It was not that they were really not afraid, but because when they reached a certain level, they naturally knew in their hearts that they would never cut their hands.
This was the realm of becoming one with the knife. When one reached a certain level in something, they would experience different realms. This was something that could only be personally experienced. It was something that could not be commented on by looking and imagining.
Ye Xuan’s skating gave everyone this feeling. He was completely in control and became one with the ice. He was simply proficient in skating, making them dumbfounded.
After skiing for a while, Fourth Sister Ye Chan completely let go. She was a little afraid when she first entered the ice and became familiar with it after being brought around by her sisters. At this moment, she was smiling and holding her sisters’ hands as they skated around the ice.
After walking for a while, Fifth Sister Ye Fei suddenly had an idea. After stopping, she looked at her sisters and spoke.
“Hey, the ice is so thick. Do you think it will crack if we jump?”
“What? Do you want to do it?”
