She Shines Brilliantly on Ice
Shu Ran had always been at the bottom of the women’s singles figure skating national team. One day, a very handsome man suddenly approached her and told her he would make her a world champion. In that instant, she realized that God was fair—some people might be blessed with good looks, but there was clearly something wrong with his head.
