Chapter 230: Show Off a Skill
At dusk, their car arrived at the first stop of the trip, Feng County’s Datan Town.
The National Day holiday hadn’t officially started, so Datan Town on September 30th wasn’t as bustling as expected.
On the way, Ye Xiaoli had already booked two rooms in the town’s best hotel through her own channels.
“Let’s rest for a bit before having dinner,” Luo Ziling suggested after the car stopped in the hotel parking lot.
“Yeah, I’m dead tired,” Yang Qingyin said, feeling sore in both her waist and back after several hours in the car, despite Luo Ziling’s intimate company.
Because they were so engrossed in conversation and having a good time, they had stopped only once along the way. It could be said that they had spent the entire five-hour journey in the car. Yang Qingyin, who hadn’t sat in a car for so long in ages, felt her legs go soft the moment she got out.
“Sitting for too long,” Luo Ziling quickly came up to offer his support as Yang Qingyin couldn’t straighten her back, “It seems, senior sister, your body isn’t strong enough. Look at me, I’m completely fine.”
“You’re a guy, of course you’re stronger. If you were weaker than me, what would that make you?” Yang Qingyin said coquettishly, giving Luo Ziling a sidelong glance, “Anyhow, in the future when I go out with you, you’ll have to help me carry the luggage.”
Yang Qingyin actually mentioned going out together in the future, which instantly relieved Luo Ziling, who had been worrying about the possibility of no more trips together.
“No problem, I can carry as much luggage as you have,” Luo Ziling joked with a smile, “and even carry you away without any issue.”
“I’ll walk by myself, just help me with my luggage,” Yang Qingyin said, pointing to her suitcase in the trunk, “I certainly don’t want you to lug me around like luggage.”
Ye Xiaoli stood to the side without making a sound. Initially, she had intended to help Yang Qingyin with the luggage, but after hearing what Yang Qingyin had said, she didn’t compete with Luo Ziling and silently played the role of a bystander.
Luo Ziling put on his travel bag and pulled Yang Qingyin’s suitcase, then extended his hand again, “If needed, I can still carry you away.”
Yang Qingyin slapped away Luo Ziling’s hand and said annoyedly, “Don’t tease me.”
“If you need anything, contact me anytime,” Luo Ziling chuckled, “I’m available for appointments throughout the next few days of the trip.”
“No service without an appointment?”
“Of course not, service is available anytime. Serving a beauty is my favorite thing to do.”
“Hmph, there are many beauties over there, you should go serve them too.”
“None are as pretty as the beauty by my side, no need to go.”
“So you’d go if they were prettier than me?!”
“Seems like no one is prettier than you.”
Yang Qingyin immediately smiled happily at that.
When Yang Qingyin agreed to accompany him on the National Day trip, Luo Ziling had been wondering if they would end up staying in the same room, and if so, what might happen. But now it seemed he had been overthinking things.
Since Qingyin brought along a bodyguard cum driver, the two of them could stay in the same room, meaning he didn’t have to worry about the slightly awkward issue.
Though he was relieved, he couldn’t help but feel a little disappointed.
Even though Datan Town was just a town, its tourism had developed quickly in recent years, and its infrastructure was much better than expected. At least, that was how Luo Ziling saw the hotel they were staying in.
Yang Qingyin and Ye Xiaoli were staying in a suite with two rooms, while Luo Ziling was in a single with a big bed, and their rooms were next to each other.
After putting away her luggage, Yang Qingyin went to Luo Ziling’s room.
Yang Qingyin today was wearing a yellow sweater with jeans, her hair tied back in a ponytail, revealing her slender, fair neck, looking upright and energetic. Luo Ziling found her appearance especially charming, showcasing all her beauty and exuding youthful vitality, prompting him to take a few extra glances.
“I’m tired to death from sitting in the car,” Yang Qingyin said playfully as she approached Luo Ziling, “Junior brother, little Divine Doctor, isn’t it time for you to show off your skills?”
“Shall I give you an acupoint kneading?” Luo Ziling asked carefully, “Kneading a few specific points on your waist and legs will relieve fatigue.”
“What if it doesn’t work?” Yang Qingyin flushed, biting her lip lightly after speaking.
Luo Ziling answered frankly, “Then I’ll treat you to a big meal as punishment.”
“Alright, let’s see what your kneading skills are like!”
“If fatigue disappears the moment I touch you, doesn’t that mean there should be a reward for the senior sister?” Luo Ziling teased.
“No problem,” Yang Qingyin readily agreed. “Then I’ll treat you to a big meal.”
“Will you also accompany me to see the stars over the grassland tonight?”
Yang Qingyin paused for a moment, then her face broke into a smile, “Of course that’s no problem.”
“Then lie down,” Luo Ziling pointed to his own big bed and instructed Yang Qingyin, “Let your junior brother give you a demonstration.”
Yang Qingyin obediently lied down, facing down on Luo Ziling’s bed.
After Yang Qingyin lay face down, Luo Ziling got onto the bed and stretched his hand toward her waist, ready to start kneading.
As soon as Luo Ziling’s hands touched Yang Qingyin’s waist, she instinctively shivered from the ticklish sensation.
However, as soon as Luo Ziling touched the waist yu and Sunshine acupoints on her waist, the tickling sensation vanished, replaced by an indescribable sour numbness, and warmth through her clothing from Luo Ziling’s palms made her feel extremely comfortable.
What Yang Qingyin didn’t realize was that Luo Ziling was channeling energy while kneading, which consumed quite a bit of his own vital energy, but the effects were exceptionally good.
After Luo Ziling had kneaded her waist area over her clothing for a while, Yang Qingyin felt the swelling feeling fade, warmth slowly building up, and not long after, she couldn’t help but start to feel sleepy.
When Luo Ziling was kneading the acupoints on her calf, she actually fell asleep.
