Su Ling stood up and walked behind Zhang Lexuan.
Zhang Lexuan is sitting upright with his back straight.
She could feel Su Ling's hand gently put on her shoulder, and the warm touch of the other's fingertips could be clearly heard through the fabric of the gauze skirt.
"Sister Lexuan, relax."
Zhang Lexuan Hearing this, he slowly took a breath, and his tense shoulders relaxed a little.
Su Ling started pressing.
His fingertips pressed precisely on her Jianjing point, with moderate force, neither light nor heavy.
Zhang Lexuan has been practicing for many years, and the muscles in the shoulders and neck are indeed slightly stiff. Under the pressure of Su Ling, those knotted muscles and joints are rubbed open bit by bit.
"Well..." She couldn't help but let out a very light groan, and then she pursed her lips tightly, and the tips of her ears turned slightly red.
Su Ling didn't say much, he focused on helping her clear the meridians on her shoulders and neck, and at the same time used Soul Power to guide her little by little, with a skillful and steady technique.
From the shoulders to the back, Su Ling's palms push down along the muscle groups on both sides of the spine.
Zhang Lexuan felt a stream of warm air seeping into his body along his palms, and the meridians that had been stagnant due to the retreat showed signs of loosening.
She was slightly frightened, but did not interrupt him.
It took about a cup of tea to pass.
Su Ling stopped and asked softly, "Sister Lexuan, it's almost done, how do you feel?"
"... It's very comfortable." Zhang Lexuan opened his eyes, his voice was much softer than before, "I didn't expect you to really know how to massage."
Su Ling smiled when he heard this.
Isn't it right? Who hasn't massaged their parents when they were young, and he happens to have to massage them every day. Over time, he has learned a set of massage techniques.
[Weekly mission - Reunion after a long absence, the mission has been completed! Rewards are being distributed to the host...]
[Ding, 300 Strategy Points has been issued!]
Su Ling took back his hand and was about to walk back to his seat.
"Wait a minute." Zhang Lexuan suddenly said.
Su Ling paused and looked back at her.
Zhang Lexuan sat on the chair, gently twirling the edge of the skirt with his fingertips, his eyes fell on his folded legs, and he was silent for a moment.
"... Legs, please help me press them too."
Su Ling heard this and lowered his eyes, seeing her sitting upright with her skirt only covering a few inches above her knees, revealing a fair and smooth calf curve.
"Okay." Su Ling nodded in agreement.
Zhang Lexuan lowered his eyes and watched as he pulled a low stool aside and sat down in front of him, then turned slightly sideways and stretched his legs slightly forward.
Su Ling gently lifted the hem of her skirt, then placed his palms on her calves and began to massage them with concentration.
His technique was steady, starting from the top of the ankle, and slowly pushing upward along the texture of the calf. The force was from shallow to deep, and he kneaded away the stiff muscles bit by bit.
Zhang Lexuan's breathing relaxed a lot, and his eyes fell on Su Ling's lowered eyebrows, looking at the other party's focused and serious profile.
She pursed her lips, and something in her heart seemed to be lightly scratched...
Su Ling pressed his hand along her calf to her knee. After a moment of pause, the palm of her hand crossed the bend of her knee and moved up to the outside of her thigh.
The skin there feels softer and more delicate.
Zhang Lexuan's fingertips curled up slightly, but he did not move his legs away. He just looked at Su Ling with a layer of tenderness in his eyes.
After a while.
Su Ling stopped his hand and raised his eyes to look at Zhang Lexuan, "Sister Lexuan, the meridians on your legs are almost sparse."
Zhang Lexuan nodded, and did not immediately retract his leg. Instead, he looked down at his exposed half of the calf, and then at Su Ling's hands with clear joints.
After pondering for two seconds, she suddenly whispered with a hint of embarrassment in her tone, "... and feet."
Su Ling was startled when he heard this, and his eyes followed her words and landed on the pair of light-colored flat sandals on her feet.
The upper has a simple cross-strap design, revealing the white instep and slender ankles.
His breathing stagnated for a moment, then he leaned over slightly, stretched out his hand to gently lift one of her ankles, and then gently took off her sandals.
A small jade foot with beautiful lines and fair complexion was exposed in front of Su Ling.
The hands are soft and waxy, the toes are round, and the nails are neatly trimmed with a faint pink sheen.
Seeing Su Ling's eyebrows raised slightly.
Zhang Lexuan's toes curled up unconsciously, but he did not take them back. He just turned his gaze to the window, and the blush on the tips of his ears quietly spread to the side of his neck.
Su Ling took a deep breath, lowered his heart, and gently placed her jade feet on his knees.
He held her ankle with one hand, put the thumb of the other hand against the acupuncture point on the sole of her foot, and began to apply pressure slowly.
"Hmm..." Zhang Lexuan let out a very light groan, and his toes tensed up instantly.
Su Ling stopped moving and asked with concern, "Does it hurt?"
"... a little bit."
Zhang Lexuan's voice was a little lower than before, with a hint of unnatural hoarseness.
"That's right. This means that the meridians on the soles of your feet are indeed somewhat stagnant."
Su Ling moved his hands more gently, and then used his fingertips to slowly rub along the arc of her arch.
"You have been in seclusion for too long, and the qi and blood have been concentrated in the Dantian and meridians for a long time, and the circulation of the extremities of the limbs is easy to be blocked. But it's okay, just press it and it will be fine."
His tone was calm and professional, as if he was really just doing an ordinary massage treatment.
But after Zhang Lexuan listened, he felt that the temperature in Su Ling's palms was seeping into his limbs bit by bit through the soles of his feet...
She bit her lower lip and didn't answer.
He just moved his eyes away from Su Ling's face and fell on the slightly swaying bamboo shadow outside the window.
Su Ling didn't say anything more and concentrated on pressing one of her feet. The whole process was meticulous and patient, as if he was carving a precious work of art.
After a cup of tea.
Su Ling put on the second sandal for Zhang Lexuan, and then gently put her feet down.
Zhang Lexuan then secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
"The massage is over." Su Ling stood up and put the low stool back to its original position, "Sister Lexuan, how do you feel?"
Zhang Lexuan did not answer immediately, but looked down at his feet that had been put on sandals again, and replied in a low voice,
"Hmm... very comfortable."
After saying that, she raised her head, a complex emotion flashing through the softness in her eyes, "Where did you learn these techniques...?"
"I'm self-taught, I don't have anyone to help me press it, so I have to do it myself." Su Ling replied casually.
He first walked to the kitchen to wash his hands, then returned to his seat, sat down, picked up the tea cup and took a sip.
Zhang Lexuan looked at him, a hint of distress flashed in his eyes, and then he picked up his cup of slightly cold tea and took a sip.
There was a moment of silence between the two.
The tea cup is empty.
Zhang Lexuan lifted the teapot and filled it for Su Ling and himself, then raised the teacup and said in a gentle tone, "If you are tired in the future, come to me and I will press the button for you..."
Su Ling heard this, put down the tea cup, his eyes fell on her reddish cheeks, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth,
"Okay, it's settled then, don't bother me then."
"No." Zhang Lexuan raised his eyes and looked at him, his voice soft but determined, "Whatever you do... I won't be bothered."
She said this calmly, but there was unconcealable affection in her beautiful, clear eyes...
Su Ling met her eyes, his heart moved slightly, and he forgot to answer the phone for a moment.
