Chapter 118 Massaging Your Shoulders

When Ling Tianyi kept searching in the moon cake box, Xia Xiaoluo was very scared. So she made a burp deliberately and said, “Darling, I’m still full because the lunch was so delicious. I am still suffering because I ate too much spicy hot pot yesterday, so now I don’t want to eat anything.”

“Really?” Ling Tianyi asked suspiciously. He was evaluated as a business genius in the financial magazine circle, so he knew that there was something wrong for Xia Xiaoluo to cover since she did not want to eat the moon cake.

“Of course!” Xia Xiaoluo answered at once.

“Darling, don’t you have a lot of files to deal with today?” Xia Xiaoluo began to change the topic.

“It doesn’t matter. Just take a break now!” Ling Tianyi said and smiled.

“Let me massage your shoulders! So you will feel better!” Xia Xiaoluo flattered. She tried her best to divert Ling Tianyi’s attention. She hoped that their conversation about the moon cake could soon be over.

“Darling, when are we going to the grassland? On the evening of September 30 or on October 1?” Xia Xiaoluo asked.

“We’re going to the grassland at the night, and I’ve asked my secretary to book the tickets.” Ling Tianyi said.

“Great!” Xia Xiaoluo continued to discuss their plans to the grassland with Ling Tianyi. They had successfully transferred to another topic. Xia Xiaoluo did not know that it was Ling Tianyi who let her go deliberately.

They continued talking about the traveling. Xia Xiaoluo kept massaging Ling Tianyi’s shoulders, and Ling Tianyi felt really comfortable.

“Darling, you’re quite skilled in massaging, I hope I can enjoy more in the future.” Ling Tianyi crossed his legs with satisfaction.

“I’m professional!” Xia Xiaoluo began to boast. It was because of Zhu Yufen. Zhu Yufen did not like Xia Xiaoluo. She regarded Xia Xiaoluo as a servant, so she often asked her to massage her shoulders or pound her legs. If Xia Xiaoluo did not do a good job, she would be scolded, suffer from starvation or be beaten. Actually, Xia Xiaoluo’s massage technique was self-taught in the harsh family environment.

“You must be kidding!” Ling Tianyi laughed.

“I’m not kidding! If I find a part-time job in a massage parlor, I’m sure I can do better than other professional people!” Xia Xiaoluo retorted to prove that she was skillful.

“I will not allow you to do that!” Ling Tianyi was enjoyable, but when he heard that Xia Xiaoluo was going to work in a massage parlor, he stood up from the sofa at once.

“Darling!” Xia Xiaoluo was scared by the attitude of Ling Tianyi.

“Don’t go to any massage parlor!” Ling Tianyi said again. “It is too complicated for you. You can’t go there.”

“I see. I’m just trying to prove that my massage technique is good. I won’t go.” Xia Xiaoluo expressed her attitude at once for fear to make Ling Tianyi angry.

“Well, I admit that your technique is good. I’ve proved it, so you should never go to the massage parlor or something!” Ling Tianyi was still worried, because Xia Xiaoluo meant a lot to him. He could never let Xia Xiaoluo massage for any other man.

“Well, I swear that I won’t work in the massage parlor!” Xia Xiaoluo promised.

“That’s right. Darling, go on!” Ling Tianyi sat down and pointed to his shoulders.

“How did you learn it?” Ling Tianyi thought of it. He thought that Xia Xiaoluo might learn it in the massage parlors. After asking the question, he was almost going crazy.

Xia Xiaoluo began to tell the story about how she was forced by Zhu Yufen when she was a child, “Darling, I am completely self-taught. But I would also be grateful to my step-mother. Or I won’t learn how to massage.”

Although Xia Xiaoluo was joking when showing off her cleverness, Ling Tianyi still felt very sad, he held her into his arms directly.

“Darling, don’t you want more massage?” Xia Xiaoluo was held by Ling Tianyi, so it was impossible for her to massage his shoulders.

“No. I’m not as vicious as Zhu Yufen. I can’t bear to let you work hard!” Ling Tianyi said and kissed Xia Xiaoluo’s hair. Now Ling Tianyi felt like heartache, he could not imagine what she had experienced when she was young.

“Darling, let’s go on. I’m not tired.” Xia Xiaoluo was moved. Because she did not expect Ling Tianyi would say so. In her mind, Ling Tianyi was very bossy. But now she was very happy that Ling Tianyi cared so much about her feeling.

Ling Tianyi was silent, taking her in front of him and massaging her shoulders.

“Ah! It hurts!” Xia Xiaoluo cried.

“What happened? Is it hard for you?” Ling Tianyi asked annoyingly.

“Darling, you did it too hard, and my bones are going to be crushed.” Xia Xiaoluo looked back and cried. She thought Ling Tianyi was punishing her.

“I will try!” Ling Tianyi said and focused on massaging, but Xia Xiaoluo was afraid, so she quickly turned over. As a result, Xia Xiaoluo fell down from the sofa and hurt her head on the coffee table.

“Oh you fool!” Ling Tianyi cared about her a lot. Then he quickly picked her up and let her sit on his legs.

“Your forehead was hurt. It is swollen here!” Ling Tianyi pressed on the injury.

“Ah!” Xia Xiaoluo cried because of the pain.

“Darling, don’t touch it please. It hurts!” Xia Xiaoluo cried.

Ling Tianyi looked at her painful look, and said, “Let’s go to the hospital.”

“It doesn’t matter. I’m going to the kitchen to wipe some vegetable oil on it.” Although Xia Xiaoluo’s forehead was painful, she did not want to go to the hospital.

“Wipe the vegetable oil? Are you going to cook food?” Ling Tianyi had never heard that the vegetable oil was able to ease the swelling.

“If you dare to eat, I will dare to cook!” Xia Xiaoluo said. Then she left Ling Tianyi and stumbled to the kitchen.

Ling Tianyi followed Xia Xiaoluo, he saw how she dealt with the injury by herself. Although Ling Tianyi doubted, he did not stop her, and he still called the director of St. Mary’s Hospital to confirm whether the vegetable oil was effective.

The director of the hospital explained patiently. He confirmed that wiping some vegetable oil really could ease the swelling.

“Really? Can it ease the swelling? Then we don’t need to apply any other external medicine, do we?” Ling Tianyi confirmed it again. He never heard of it before.

“Manager Ling, please don’t worry. If your wife’s injury is not serious, wiping some vegetable essential oil will be able to ease the swelling.” The director explained it once again. In the end, Ling Tianyi was convinced.

Ling Tianyi hung up and curiously walked to Xia Xiaoluo. “Let me help you!”

Ling Tianyi also put some oil on his hands and wiped on Xia Xiaoluo’s forehead.

“Be gentle please, darling, it hurts! Please wipe it lightly.” Xia Xiaoluo said.

“Just now I called the hospital, the director said the vegetable oil can ease the swelling. After bearing with it for a few minutes, you will not feel painful.” Previously, Ling Tianyi did not believe that the oil was able to reduce the swelling, but now he was acting like an expert again.

While Ling Tianyi was wiping the oil, his mobile phone rang again.

“Darling, your phone is ringing.” Xia Xiaoluo said.

“I can hear it. I won’t answer the phone until you feel better.” Ling Tianyi continued to ignore the rang and intensively focused on wiping the oil.

Xia Xiaoluo could not bear it and she asked Ling Tianyi to be gentle.

Ling Tianyi’s phone kept ringing.

“Darling, the ringtone is so old-fashioned. I haven’t noticed it before!” Xia Xiaoluo said causally.

“What are you talking about?” Ling Tianyi was shocked. His ringtone was specially selected from Beethoven’s Symphony of Destiny. Xia Xiaoluo thought the elegant classical music was out of date.

“Nothing!” Xia Xiaoluo smiled.

“Darling, I feel better now. I think that the oil works. You can answer the phone now.” Xia Xiaoluo said and began to transfer Ling Tianyi’s attention.

Ling Tianyi believed what Xia Xiaoluo said, he washed his hands. “Why is it so oily that I can’t wash it off?”

“You’d better use detergent!” Xia Xiaoluo picked up the bottle of liquid detergent on the kitchen table and poured it on Ling Tianyi’s hands.

“Are you sure it’s OK for washing hands?” Ling Tianyi found that his oily hands were almost clean in a second.

“Don’t worry, I wash dishes with it every day. I know that the liquid detergent is not harmful for skin. What’s more, it can be used to wash the plates and bowls.” Xia Xiaoluo said while washing her hands.

“Why don’t you use the dishwasher?” Ling Tianyi pointed to the equipment in the kitchen.

“I don’t know how to use it, and I’m not used to it. I wash the dishes very quickly, better than the dishwasher.” Xia Xiaoluo said. Because she did a lot of housework at the Xia Family. Washing dishes was just a little case.

“Use the dishwasher to wash the dishes next time! Moreover, it seems this liquid detergent is not imported. Is it harmful to your hands?” Ling Tianyi held her hands and asked.

“Foreign detergent was used up. I bought it in a small supermarket. It only costs 2.5 yuan. It is good too.” Xia Xiaoluo said seriously.

Ling Tianyi did not say anything. He just threw the bottle of liquid detergent into the rubbish bin.

Then Ling Tianyi took Xia Xiaoluo to the bathroom, and picked up a bottle of liquid soap which was imported from France. He washed Xia Xiaoluo’s hands gently. “You should buy the goods with the best quality.” Ling Tianyi said.

“Okay!” Xia Xiaoluo did not object. She was moved by Ling Tianyi’s tenderness. She would do whatever he said.

Ling Tianyi’s mobile phone was ringing all the time. People on the other side of the phone must begin to curse him.
