As the saying goes, when men and women work together, the work doesn’t feel tiring. Laying down the floor mat required no technical skill—they just had to connect the interlocking edges and trim off the excess.
"Have a cold drink to cool off." Jiang Wanyi handed over a bottle of Coke.
"Mm."
Chen Yuan didn’t refuse; he was indeed feeling a bit hot.
The two of them sat inside the playpen, sipping their cold drinks and chatting.
"Um..."
Jiang Wanyi seemed to want to say something but hesitated, unsure how to begin.
"Is there something you want to say?"
"You taught me about massaging pressure points yesterday, right? I don’t feel like it’s having much of an effect. Are there any other methods?"
"Massaging pressure points is more like icing on the cake. Besides, you won’t see results that quickly. You need to do it consistently over a long period."
"The main thing is, I can’t afford to wait. If I wait any longer, I’m afraid my milk will be completely gone."
Sometimes, the supply depends on how much the baby nurses. The more they eat, the more milk is produced. If they don’t nurse for a long time, the supply dwindles and eventually disappears.
"Then your only option is to find a lactation consultant."
’I hope she finds one soon, too,’ Chen Yuan thought. ’Even if their technique isn’t great, I can share some of my expertise. It’ll definitely be effective, and making sure the baby gets enough to eat should be no problem.’
"I did look, but there’s no one suitable around..." Jiang Wanyi looked at Chen Yuan. "You’re pretty good at it, right?"
"Huh?"
Chen Yuan’s expression froze for a moment. He looked at Jiang Wanyi, his eyes locking onto her chest as if he had auto-aim.
"Are you asking me to do it?"
"I really can’t find anyone else, and I don’t want to give her formula. If you think it’s okay, let’s give it a try."
After saying it out loud, Jiang Wanyi found she wasn’t so nervous anymore.
’He’s not even twenty yet, and I’m so much older than him. There’s no need to be embarrassed. I’ll just pretend it’s like having a check-up with a male doctor at the hospital.’
"You should think this over carefully. Although men do have a certain advantage, you should still respect tradition. Discuss it with your husband before making a decision."
"You sure think a lot," Jiang Wanyi said with a smile.
"Don’t overthink it. I don’t have any concerns in that regard. It just depends on whether you’re confident in your technique."
’No concerns in that regard?’
’Is her husband dead? Or are they divorced?’
"I guess we can try."
"Let’s go to the guest room, then. We should hurry, or the baby will be waking up soon."
Chen Yuan nodded. The two went to the guest room. It was tidy and clean, not messy at all—a stark contrast to the master bedroom.
Having hired a lactation consultant before, Jiang Wanyi knew the procedure. But now that it was about to start, she felt a little embarrassed.
She really couldn’t bring herself to see Chen Yuan as a real doctor.
"Should I... take it off now?"
"If you’re nervous, you can leave your clothes on. But it’s best to change into something thinner. The thinner, the better."
Hearing Chen Yuan’s suggestion, Jiang Wanyi thought it was a good idea.
"Wait for me a moment."
She went to the master bedroom and came out wearing a gray top. Just one look was enough to tell how thin the fabric was.
The fabric was stretched taut over her chest, creating a slightly see-through effect.
This kind of hazy, partially concealed beauty was far more alluring than being completely bare.
A certain celebrity once said: If you want to make a naked woman look even more exposed, put stockings on her.
With her clothes on, Jiang Wanyi felt much better, her expression becoming much more composed.
"Shall we start now?"
"Mm."
Jiang Wanyi went back to the living room to get a chair, placed it next to the bed, and then lay down on the bed.
Chen Yuan sat on the chair, looking at Jiang Wanyi.
Now it was his turn to be nervous. He kept telling himself that this was a proper job and he couldn’t let his mind wander to other things.
But some things aren’t so easy to control.
Chen Yuan clearly remembered the last time he’d seen a pair that big was in his sophomore year of high school, in an adult film.
That was a year ago.
’What a throwback!’
"I’m... starting?"
"Mm."
Lying flat on the bed, Jiang Wanyi saw Chen Yuan constantly swallowing and taking deep breaths, and she couldn’t help but want to laugh.
"Relax. How come you’re even more nervous than I am..."
"Yeah."
After another deep breath, Chen Yuan began his work.
’This feeling!’
’It’s indescribable.’
"Wait a sec."
"What’s wrong?"
"You’re on my hair."
Jiang Wanyi sat up, grabbed a hair tie, and tied her hair back before lying down again.
"Okay, you can start."
Chen Yuan first massaged the pressure points, then followed the method Tongzi taught him, massaging in different directions.
For a moment, Chen Yuan didn’t know how to describe his state of mind.
’Just a few months ago, I was still some clueless high school idiot. I turned eighteen over the summer, so I was technically an adult, but being thrown into such a mind-blowing coming-of-age ceremony right off the bat... I was completely caught off guard.’
’My life is like one of those system novels. Big Daddy System sure has been good to me.’
The two of them grew more and more relaxed, and more than ten minutes passed just like that.
"I... I feel a bit full..."
"That means it’s working."
Chen Yuan continued. After another two or three minutes, the thin top was soaked through.
Jiang Wanyi was both shocked and delighted. Although she couldn’t see it, she could feel that a lot had come out.
"Should we collect all of this?"
"Don’t act like you’ve never seen anything like this before. Wasting a little bit is no big deal."
Jiang Wanyi couldn’t help but laugh. At this point, she had completely stopped worrying about whether it was embarrassing or not.
’If this can fix my problem, it’s better than anything.’
Chen Yuan’s movements became more and more practiced. After about half an hour, not only was Jiang Wanyi’s top soaked, but a large patch of the bedsheet was wet as well.
"That should be enough for now," Chen Yuan said.
"But with your situation, I suggest we do this three times in a row. Then you won’t have to worry about it in the future."
"Okay, I’ll listen to you."
Jiang Wanyi was overjoyed. This one session with Chen Yuan had produced more than the previous three sessions combined.
Now she was truly convinced that men really did have an advantage in this line of work. At the same time, it once again showed her Chen Yuan’s professionalism.
"I’m going to go wash up..."
"Okay."
Chen Yuan stood up, and Jiang Wanyi sat up on the bed as well.
But she saw Chen Yuan turn around, keeping his back to her the entire time as he walked out of the room in a rather strange posture.
Seeing Chen Yuan’s state, Jiang Wanyi quickly understood what was going on.
’But it’s understandable. He’s a young man, full of vigor, after all.’
PFFT—
Jiang Wanyi couldn’t help but laugh. She found the situation quite amusing.
When she got to the bathroom, she took off her top and tried squeezing a little. Milk sprayed out.
Jiang Wanyi was ecstatic. It felt like a blessing from heaven.
Gender swap: More than half an hour today.
I’ll leave it to your imagination...
"Kiddo..." Jiang Wanyi said.
"What is it?"
"Go to the kitchen and get me a bowl. I don’t want to waste any; I want to save it all."
