Curled up on the sofa, Pei Zi glared intensely at Zhang Ye, her fingers digging so deep into the throw pillow she was about to tear it.
Raising his hands in surrender, Zhang Ye said, "I really didn't touch your key just now. Could it be that you yourself..."
Gritting her teeth, Pei Zi snapped, "Shut up!"
With that, she rushed over.
She snatched back her car key and powered it off immediately.
Breathing a sigh of relief, she glared at Zhang Ye. "This is our secret. You're not allowed to tell anyone."
Zhang Ye swore, "I won't! This is your secret, how could I possibly say anything!"
Seeing Zhang Ye's flippant manner, Pei Zi felt helpless.
However, she had already calmed down significantly.
She scolded in annoyance, "Hmph, I'll trust you this once."
Zhang Ye didn't want to linger on this topic either.
He could tell that Pei Zi was quite sensitive about this matter.
Making money off her was enough!
As for her not wanting to do a massage and essential oil massage?
That was absolutely out of the question!
Once she was lying on the massage bed, he would be calling the shots.
After all, he still wanted to accumulate Internal Energy by giving people massages.
Besides, Pei Zi was very "generous," paying him around thirty thousand yuan in one go.
The System would settle each service separately.
If it settled four times, that would be nearly 120,000 yuan.
Zhang Ye changed the subject, "Sister Pei, let's start the essential oil massage."
Pei Zi looked at Zhang Ye's composed expression.
She couldn't help but grit her teeth and stomp her foot. "You really are... a rogue!"
Faced with Zhang Ye's shameless antics, Pei Zi was completely powerless.
Who told her to let him get leverage over her?
Who told her to be the one asking Zhang Ye for help?
Pei Zi said, "Do it properly. I really want to learn from you."
Zhang Ye pulled back the partition curtain and pointed to three clean, tidy massage beds. "Pick whichever bed you like, change clothes, and don't wear anything underneath.
I'll wait outside. Call me when you're ready."
Seeing Zhang Ye act so proper,
Pei Zi's cheeks flushed slightly as she went into the changing room.
A moment later.
She had already wrapped herself in a towel.
Yet because she had been wearing a bodycon skirt, no matter how much she covered herself, her curves remained voluptuous.
Moreover, Pei Zi kept her head tilted, looking back at him vigilantly.
After sweeping his eyes over her, Zhang Ye walked over to the shelf and began preparing the essential oils and vacuum Cupping jars.
Then, he crouched beside Pei Zi and gently pulled back the towel, exposing only her shoulders.
Seeing this, Pei Zi felt a little more at ease.
She said, "You can begin. Go a little slower if you can; I want to properly experience your technique."
Zhang Ye nodded. "You call the shots."
Taking a deep breath, Pei Zi turned her head away, relaxing her body face down as she prepared to pay close attention.
"I'm starting."
Zhang Ye picked up the oil bottle, poured an appropriate amount of essential oil, and gently massaged her shoulders, back, and neck.
During the first few minutes, Pei Zi felt a slight soreness.
As Zhang Ye's technique grew increasingly skillfully, the ache gradually disappeared, replaced by a warm, relaxing sensation.
Closing her eyes, she let her body ease up and became immersed in the comforting pleasure of the massage.
Zhang Ye's technique was professional as always.
Every movement was executed to perfection.
It allowed Pei Zi's tense muscles to slowly unwind, even making her feel somewhat drowsy.
As the essential oil seeped in, her Exhaustion faded away bit by bit.
Her entire nervous System gradually loosened up.
It felt as if her entire body was melting beneath Zhang Ye's massaging hands.
Just as she was ready to relax completely, she suddenly felt an extraordinary warmth spread across her back.
Her tight shoulder muscles actually began to loosen further.
Moreover, she felt a powerful wave of weariness wash over her.
Her consciousness blurred, and her head tilted to the side as she fell fast asleep.
【Exhaustion】!
The inverted skill!
Looking at Pei Zi, who had sunk into deep slumber, he felt a bit guilty.
Whatever!
Taking advantage of Pei Zi being asleep, he needed to quickly finish all four services on her to earn the money and Internal Energy first.
Two hours later.
【Tuina x1, Reward +29,700, Internal Energy +1】 This chapter was taken from g.com without permission.
【massage x1, Reward +29,700, Internal Energy +1】
【oil massage x1, Reward +29,700, Internal Energy +1】
【Cupping x1, Reward +29,700, Internal Energy +1】
In Zhang Ye's mind, the corresponding rewards popped up once again.
He had accumulated four strands of Internal Energy.
【Exhaustion】 and 【Vitality】 had each consumed one strand.
By performing massage on Pei Zi, the System had settled four more strands.
In other words, he had now accumulated six strands.
Zhang Ye checked his account balance again: 164,019.
Seeing this number, Zhang Ye felt a sense of unreality.
This System was simply freaking heaven-defying.
As long as he did a full set of massage, the client paid once, and the System settled four times—effectively quintupling his income.
In this moment, Zhang Ye tasted what it felt like to be rich.
The eighty thousand in external debts plus over ten thousand in rent and utilities were completely covered.
The corners of Zhang Ye's mouth couldn't help curving into a smile.
"Mmm~" At this moment, Pei Zi let out a soft moan.
She opened her gorgeous eyes.
After a brief moment of confusion, she suddenly flipped over and sat up with a swish.
As she turned over, the white towel covering her slipped down to her thighs.
She stared fixedly at Zhang Ye and demanded, "How did I fall asleep?
Did you even start?
Did you drug me?"
She rattled off a barrage of questions, completely oblivious to the fact that she was sitting bare in front of Zhang Ye.
Zhang Ye frowned and answered, "You were probably just too tired, which is why you fell asleep.
I've already finished your therapy session. Two hours have already passed."
Hearing this, a look of disbelief washed over Pei Zi's face.
She felt a cool breeze brush against her skin...
"Ah!"
"Zhang Ye, close your eyes!"
