Chapter 118
"A little below the knee..." the other person whispered again, specifying the spot, and then pointed to that spot with their fingertips.
Apply moderate pressure, pressing from the ankle all the way up to above the knee.
Lin Yu lowered his eyes, his long eyelashes casting a small shadow on his eyelids. His gaze seemed overly focused, as if he were looking at some work of art, which was completely out of character for him.
But you need to be focused when you do things, unlike her, whose mind starts making up stories whenever she does something for too long.
Jiang You suppressed his strange feelings.
I had been trying to ignore the sensation on my leg because I was distracted, but now that I was focused on listening, I couldn't ignore the warmth. My fingertips were touching it, teasingly circling around.
An electric-like sensation coursed through my body, sending a slight shiver through me, followed by a tingling, numb feeling.
Jiang You pursed his lips, and the tips of his ears turned from pink to bright red.
The subtle atmosphere in the quiet room gradually rose, seemingly getting a little out of control.
Lin Yu released his hands and placed them on his knees. He looked up, his gaze lazily fixed on her: "Try it yourself."
"Oh, okay..." Jiang You shifted his gaze, leaned down slightly, and awkwardly followed the spot where Lin Yu had just pressed.
“Wrong,” Lin Yu said casually, leaning closer.
Those hands, like works of art, touched her fingertips before gently taking her hand and leading her to a spot.
Jiang You's heart skipped a beat; they were too close, almost kissing each other's foreheads.
"What's wrong?" Lin Yu looked up, and their eyes met, the distance between them no more than a fist's width.
Jiang You's face flushed, and she turned her head away, stammering, "No, it's okay, I can press it myself."
Lin Yu stared at her for a long time, then raised an eyebrow slightly, suddenly realizing something, and said, "Is it because I'm too close to you that you're uncomfortable?"
After saying that, he stood up and moved away from her.
Is this distance okay?
Lin Yu said calmly, "Just say what's on your mind. I'm not like Shen Yi'an, who can't understand human language."
“…I’m sorry.” Jiang You lowered her head awkwardly and pressed the acupoint that Lin Yu had given her.
The other person remained silent for a long time. Just as she looked up in surprise, she saw Lin Yu with his hands casually in his pockets, like a venomous snake locking onto her.
The other person's pupils were already smaller than normal, and there was a lot of white in their eyes. Under the light, those eyes really didn't look like normal human eyes; they looked like the eyes of a snake.
It's just that one is vertical and the other is round.
Jiang You's brow twitched: "You..."
"I was thinking about what you did to offend me, that's why you suddenly apologized."
Lin Yu's eyelids drooped slightly, his aggressiveness gone, and he reverted to his usual harmless, unassuming demeanor.
Jiang You: "Hmm..."
She wanted to say something, but then realized that it was true, why did she just say sorry?
I don't know when it started, but "I'm sorry" seems to have become her catchphrase.
“You don’t need to apologize to express your needs,” Lin Yu said softly. “Saying sorry too often makes it seem cheap.”
Jiang You was taken aback. Was he teaching her?
"Yes," she nodded in response, then added, "Thank you."
Lin Yu did not respond and continued to guide her on the correct acupoints.
A few minutes later, he said calmly, "That's enough. After I leave, practice Fang Yi according to the movements."
Jiang You nodded, intending to see Lin Yu to the door, but then he paused as he was about to leave.
As he looked over, he saw an open backpack revealing snacks inside: dried mango, potato chips, jelly...
Girls always like to bring snacks when they go out.
Jiang You asked instinctively, "Do you want some?"
She thought that a rich kid like Lin Yu wouldn't eat such junk food, and was prepared to be rejected.
Lin Yu smiled again, seemingly pleased, and asked, "Is that alright?"
Some people don't smile much, but when they do, they're incredibly captivating, especially someone like Lin Yu, who seems like he could die at any moment. His smile is so healing and beautiful.
Jiang You paused for a moment, then quickly realized what he meant and walked toward the table: "Sure, of course you can."
She took out a bag from the side of her bag, filled it with all the snacks, and turned to hand it to Lin Yu.
"You really like eating snacks?"
“Yes,” Lin Yu tilted his head, smiling shyly, “Thank you.”
He crossed his arms, like a child.
Jiang You was unaware that he never got a chance to eat the snacks Lin Yu's parents brought back, even though his allowance could buy a truckload of snacks.
Whether you buy it yourself or your parents give it to you, it makes a difference.
Jiang You closed the door, not expecting Lin Yu to be such a foodie.
The weather was sunny during the day, but it started to drizzle at night, gradually getting heavier and heavier, which woke up Jiang You.
I glanced at the time; it was 5 a.m., and then my stomach started growling.
Jiang You got up; his legs were sore, but not as painful as usual, and the pain was within an acceptable range.
She went to the table, rummaged through her backpack, and discovered that she had given all the snacks to Lin Yu yesterday, leaving none for herself.
She went back to bed, but couldn't fall asleep.
I was thinking of reading a novel when I realized my phone had no signal and the Wi-Fi wasn't working either.
Jiang You: "..."
The signal is already weak up in the mountains, and with the rain, it's impossible to receive a signal at all.
Damn it, she should have cached a few novels!
Jiang You put on his clothes, opened the door, and took the elevator down.
That's right, the hotel lobby has a 24-hour free buffet.
Before I even got close, I saw Lin Yu sitting in the hotel's book corner, looking at a book with great boredom.
He must have stayed up all night.
At this moment, Lin Yu looked over, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.
