“Excuse , I’m in a hurry,” Hu Yue’er said shakingly. She was really in a hurry and could not hold it in any longer.
Right then, she was really worried that a weirdo like Ye Lingchen could not be reasoned with and would block her in—she would cry if that happened.
Fortunately, Ye Lingchen was not a weirdo. Instead, he politely moved away for her to leave.
Not long after, she was back from the toilet. Her expression was calr than before and her attitude much friendlier as she greeted Ye Lingchen with a nod.
Ye Lingchen ignored it and took a look at the ti. It was approximately another hour until landing.
“Oof!”
Right then, beside him, Hu Yue’er made a muffled noise as she shook uncontrollably. Very quickly, cold sweat started to line her forehead.
“Can you please help get a glass of water? Thank you.” Hu Yue’er’s body was already bent over as she curled up in her seat. Her face was flushed, appearing to be in lots of pain.
Ye Lingchen shot her a glance but remained quiet.
“You...” Hu Yue’er was annoyed. She felt the pain in her body intensifying, preventing her from speaking.
The next instant, Ye Lingchen stretched his hand outward. Before she could react, he moved her hands away from her abdon and covered over it with his huge palm.
Hu Yue’er was stunned, dumbfounded.
Just as she was about to scream, a feeling of warmth flowed from Ye Lingchen’s hand into her abdon. It sent an indescribably calming feeling all over her body, as though she was imrsed in a hot spring. Furthermore, she could feel the pain slowly fading away.
That feeling got her hooked as it felt way too comfortable.
“Period pains?” Ye Lingchen asked softly, then gave her a gentle reminder, “It’s this strong because you have a bad diet and lack proper rest. I suggest you pay more attention to this or you’ll be faced with irreversible damage in the future!”
Hu Yue’er’s cheeks turned red. She felt embarrassed being reminded by a man of such a sensitive topic. Most importantly, that man was massaging her abdon attentively.
She looked sideways, acting as though she could not see him.
However, right after that, Ye Lingchen raised her hand and placed it over her abdon. “Do it yourself. Five turns clockwise, five turns counter-clockwise, and then repeat the process. That should help you ease the pain.”
‘What?’
Hu Yue’er’s eyes popped wide open. She turned over and stared at Ye Lingchen in surprise, with her mouth agape, as though trying to say sothing.
‘This lady here is gifted with natural beauty. With such a beauty giving you the chance to massage her tummy, letting you take this advantage and you’re having massage it myself?’
‘What an ignorant fool! God knows how many guys would brave the flas at my beckoning.’
However, rembering that Ye Lingchen helped her with the pain, she could only helplessly stifle the anger within her and turn her head with a huff, feeling dejected.
Ye Lingchen, however, frowned in confusion.
Earlier, he experinted as he provided the massage. He tried to control the Qi he refined to ld into Hu Yue’er’s body through his hand. It was unexpectedly successful and greatly boosted the effects of the massage.
If it were any normal massage, it would be impossible to alleviate Hu Yue’er’s pain instantly. This ti, however, he managed to pull it off.
It would seem that Qi Refinent had a lot of interesting uses. Although it was still far from spiritual energy, it was considered to be the purest form of energy[1] that would only benefit the body.
Eventually, the plane arrived at Mount Li and the air stewardess’ voice could be heard over the speakers. After that, they landed smoothly.
Hu Yue’er sat in her seat, occasionally stealing glances at Ye Lingchen from the corner of her eyes. Her inner thoughts were going wild.
‘This fella must be playing hard to get. He’ll surely try to get my WeChat contact. If that happens, I must reject him first. Only when he begs will I begrudgingly accept.’
With the script planned in her heart, she looked up at Ye Lingchen, just to see that he paid her no heed and started walking off. He went further and further away, until...he was gone...
‘Hmph! Straight Man[2]!”
Ye Lingchen was obviously oblivious to Hu Yue’er’s internal drama. By then, he already contacted the program crew of Life’s Struggles at the eting location.
Shortly after, a black Buick MPV approached slowly and pulled over in front of Ye Lingchen. A female employee got down from the car, followed by a caraman.
“Greetings, God Ye. We welco you to join our program.” After politely greeting Ye Lingchen, the female employee opened the car door for him.
“Nice to et you.” Ye Lingchen nodded, then shot a glance at the caraman on the side.
“God Ye, our program will be fild using both regular filming and live streaming at the sa ti. The live stream will also be published on various streams. Each guest will have their own private stream,” the employee explained quickly, then added, “If you’re ready, then we will start filming.”
With a channel for each guest, that would an that everyone had different popularity. That would be made apparent on the number of online viewers on their channels. Those with good performance would naturally have more viewers on their stream.
Ye Lingchen nodded. “Just start filming. I’m ready to go anyti.”
The employee then gave the caraman a signal to start off the live stream.
[Life’s Struggles’ fifth stream is on. Who will it be? Who will the guest be?]
[Wah wah wah! It’s God Ye! It’s really God Ye!]
[He’s so handso. I think he’s much better than those little fresh at out there. I just won’t grow tired from looking at his face.]
[I feel the sa way too. He seems to give off a special aura and gives an impression of so unearthly feeling.]
[I should’ve known. Apple TV had always focused on sports. How can they not invite God Ye?]
[Is this a celebrity as well? How co I’ve never seen him in the entertainnt circles? He doesn’t seem famous.]
[Hehe, previous poster, you’re ignorant. How can you only know of those little fresh at but know nothing of God Ye who defeated the Stick Nation? How disappointing!]
...
As the stream started, the audience from Life’s Struggles continuously shifted over. When they saw Ye Lingchen, it sparked a new series of debates.
Strictly speaking, Ye Lingchen was yet to be considered a celebrity as he had not appeared on the silver screen. His popularity was naturally on the low side. The viewers on his stream maintained around 20 to 30 thousand. Normally, a celebrity invited by this type of variety show would have a base viewer count of 50 thousand people.
anwhile, within Y Costics, Zhang Yunxi turned the TV to Ye Lingchen’s stream as soon as she could. Watching Ye Lingchen on the TV screen, her lips could not help but curl upward into a charming smile. The custors in the shop that were waiting in line with nothing to do turned their heads and watched together excitedly...
[1] In raw, it was written as 空气 (Kong Qi / air), but we chose to translate it as energy as the author was comparing Qi and spiritual energy.
[2] 直男 (Zhi Nan) is a derogatory term used to describe a dense guy’s social ineptitude to read the mood or just lacked the ability to be in touch with one’s emotions. The term is literally translated as “straight man”, which can also an heterosexual. In this context, it’s used as a stereotype of how a heterosexual guy would be very out of touch with the emotional side of things. Dear straight readers, please do not take this the wrong way.
