399: A divine move

Sensing the dejection in Yan Ran's tone, Ye Su tightened his grip on her shoulder: "What are you saying? Isn't my home your home too?"

Ye Su's words warmed Yan Ran's heart: "Why, are you planning to take me home?"

Ye Su replied nonchalantly: "If we go, we go."

"Aren't you afraid people will say you found yourself an auntie?"

"Who said you're an auntie? When we go out together, everyone thinks we're siblings."

Yan Ran poked Ye Su's jawline: "You're such a smooth talker."

"It's not like you haven't tasted it; you must know how sweet my mouth is."

"Hate you—"

Yan Ran, acting like a little woman, shyly punched Ye Su's chest.

For some reason, Yan Ran felt that Ye Su seemed even more handsome, making her even more infatuated with him.

Fortunately, Yan Ran just assumed it was a case of 'beauty is in the eye of the beholder,' and that she was just growing fonder of Ye Su, not thinking of anything else.

After the two of them snuggled on the sofa for a while, Ye Su brought up the smart massage chair in Yan Ran's bedroom.

"By the way, I remember you have a massage chair in your bedroom. Is that thing any good?"

"It's alright."

"I'll go up and try it out. If it's good, I'll buy one for the Apartment Complex later."

"Then go ahead. If you think it's decent after trying it, I'll have someone send one up tomorrow."

"Sure."

Ye Su didn't stand on ceremony with the rich woman. After agreeing, he got up and went to the master bedroom on the third floor.

As soon as he entered, Ye Su saw the smart massage chair in the corner flashing with a bright blue light, completely different from usual.

Sitting on the massage chair, Ye Su tapped the automatic massage button; it displayed that a session lasted fifteen minutes.

As the massage chair tilted backward, a system interface popped up in front of Ye Su, displaying [15:00], and began a countdown once the chair started.

"Mmm—"

The massage chair's zero-gravity mode, Thai-style stretching, and other functions activated simultaneously, causing Ye Su to groan in comfort.

This was definitely the most comfortable piece of intel he had ever completed.

Closing his eyes, Ye Su began to enjoy the massage service, while the system screen, visible only to him, counted down second by second.

[00:02]

[00:01]

[Ding!]

[Used [Mysterious Surprise Item - massage chair] for 15 minutes. Congratulations, Host, you have successfully mastered the [Special Grade Massage Technique]!]

As the system notification sounded, Ye Su suddenly opened his eyes.

He discovered that his brain was like a hard drive, with various pieces of knowledge related to massage being stored inside.

As this knowledge was loaded into his brain by the system, from massage techniques, force, and effects... to Traditional Chinese Medicine knowledge regarding the 52 single acupoints, 309 pairs of bilateral acupoints, and 50 extra-meridian points on the human body—a total of 720 acupoints—along with the location and effects of pressing or striking each one, Ye Su mastered them all one by one.

[Ding!]

Finally, when no new knowledge was flooding into his brain, the system sent another notification.

[Congratulations, Host, you have successfully mastered the [Special Grade Massage Technique] and obtained the [Hand of God] skill!]

[[Hand of God] skill introduction: Can be used in conjunction with [Special Grade Massage Technique] to exponentially increase massage effects, including but not limited to: Relieving muscle fatigue and soreness in the person being massaged, and repairing damage caused to the body by strenuous exercise or prolonged sitting. Improving systemic blood circulation and metabolism in the person being massaged, increasing blood flow velocity, and significantly improving physical issues such as peripheral blood circulation. Through neural regulation, promoting the brain's secretion of endorphins and serotonin, alleviating psychological anxiety and other issues, causing a significant drop in cortisol levels, and keeping the person being massaged in a pleasant mood]

"The effects are even stronger than the advertised effects of health supplements. It truly lives up to the name [Hand of God]!"

Just relying on this skill, he wouldn't even need to pretend to be a blind masseur.

He would only need to find those world-class athletes, let them try the massage effects, and he could become their guest of honor in a minute.

"Hand of God, this name..."

Ye Su suddenly thought of other [hands] and began to associate it with other images.

Yan Ran, having nothing to do while alone in the living room, had long since come into the bedroom.

Seeing that Ye Su had finished using the massage chair, she asked: "How is the effect of this massage chair? If you think it's okay, I'll have someone send one up tomorrow."

"It's alright." Ye Su got up from the massage chair and boasted again: "But it's not as good as my ancestral technique."

"Is that so?" Yan Ran seized the opportunity and hinted clearly: "Then let me experience just how strong your ancestral technique is, shall I?"

"No problem."

Having just mastered [Special Grade Massage Technique] and [Hand of God], Ye Su was just worrying about not having a place to test the effects.

Without a doubt, Yan Ran was his best test subject.

Seeing Ye Su agree immediately, Yan Ran laughed excitedly and then skillfully lay down across the bed.

Ye Su pulled over a chair, sat by the bed, rubbed his hands together, and simultaneously activated the [Hand of God] skill.

With the knowledge brought by the [Special Grade Massage Technique], Ye Su appeared much more professional this time.

Starting from the temples, he first gently helped Yan Ran relax, then had her turn over while he sat on the edge of the bed and began to press her neck and shoulders.

This time, Yan Ran could clearly feel that her neck and shoulders, tired from a whole day's work, were rapidly relaxing with Ye Su's massage.

Moreover, she felt as if Ye Su's hands carried a faint electric current.

Every time he pressed her shoulders, it stimulated her so much that she felt like she was getting goosebumps, and the comfort made her feel like she was floating.

"Mmm—"

Finally, unable to hold back, Yan Ran let out a soft moan that left much to the imagination.

This sound almost sent Ye Su over the edge.

Fortunately, in order to test the effects of the [Special Grade Massage Technique] and [Hand of God], Ye Su temporarily restrained himself and did not [commit an offense] as usual.

"How is it? It's alright, right?"

"Mmm—"

Before speaking, Yan Ran couldn't help but let out another soft moan, causing her face, which was resting on the pillow, to blush before she replied: "It seems even more comfortable than usual. I feel like my shoulders aren't sore anymore."

Usually, besides having to sit at a desk for long periods, she also carried such a large pair of burdens; the pressure on Yan Ran's shoulders could be imagined.

But after just these few minutes of Ye Su's massage, Yan Ran clearly felt that the blood in her long-clogged shoulders was flowing much more smoothly, making her whole body feel relaxed.

At this moment, Yan Ran couldn't tell whether this was the magic of Ye Su's ancestral massage technique, or simply a psychological effect because Ye Su was by her side, thoughtfully giving her a massage.

Regardless of the reason, it made Yan Ran so comfortable that her entire body's muscles relaxed, and she lay on the bed without an ounce of strength.

Even her brain was, rarely, completely emptied, not thinking about anything at all.

After about ten minutes, Ye Su had massaged her from head to toe and was just about to ask for user feedback when he discovered that, at some point, Yan Ran had already fallen asleep.

"This time she fell asleep without even needing the [Sleep Aid Service]. It seems the skill rewarded by the system is indeed powerful."
