Xu Lin began to massage the other person's swan neck, with eight fingers placed on each side and both thumbs resting on the back of the neck, then slowly started massaging.

He was very focused.

"Is this the way?"

"Yes, it is."

Xu Lin said, "Try to relax."

"Mmm, mmm, a bit tense."

Chi Linyue finally relaxed.

Xu Lin massaged her for about ten minutes and didn't let his hands wander anywhere else.

He's a normal guy, appreciates beauty but isn't lewd.

"How are you feeling now?"

"Feeling quite good, much better, my neck doesn't feel as uncomfortable as before when turning it."

Chi Linyue moved her neck around, feeling very relaxed.

"Let me massage a few more minutes, I'm going to leave later."

"So soon?"

"There's a class meeting in the evening."

"Alright then!"

A few minutes later, Chi Linyue said, "Much more comfortable now. Xu Lin, where did you learn to massage?"

"Learned online, just tinkering around."

"Your brain is amazing!"

Chi Linyue exclaimed, remembering how Xu Lin started learning piano from scratch the other night.

"Besides the brain, my hands-on ability must be strong too, that's also important."

"That's true, you need to be able to take action too!"

"Feeling better now?" Xu Lin asked.

"Much better!"

Chi Linyue nodded, and only then did Xu Lin release his hands, allowing Chi Linyue to move her neck around.

[New progress unlocked!]

[First time infringing on Chi Linyue's body!]

This counts as body infringement?

Xu Lin felt a bit strange; last time he helped her home, it was surface contact, then it was "first physical contact."

Never thought that massaging for over ten minutes would count as the first body infringement.

What about playing ball together in the future then?

But Xu Lin was quite excited because it was the fourth progress level, and with one more, it would be five progress levels, earning him a big reward, looking forward to the future.

After that, Xu Lin stayed at Chi Linyue's place for another three or four minutes before saying goodbye and leaving.

His electric bike was parked in the underground parking lot.

Chi Linyue had four parking spaces here, but she only had two cars, so Xu Lin's two wheels occupied one parking space, which seemed out of place among all the luxury cars in the underground parking lot.

After five o'clock, Xu Lin, in a good mood, rode his Segway No. 9 back to the community where his rented apartment was located.

"Where are you?"

He sent a message to Rong Xiyi.

"On my way!"

Rong Xiyi sometimes really dawdled, coming down only ten minutes later.

"Xu Lin, I was putting on makeup, so I was a bit late."

"My senior never wears makeup, always bare-faced, look how pretty she is."

"Can you stop mentioning her? It's annoying! And isn't it normal for girls to wear makeup? Besides, I always wear light makeup!"

Rong Xiyi was not convinced, feeling that Xu Lin was saying she wasn't as pretty as Ning Yuhuan.

Ning Yuhuan had a strong facial structure and didn't need makeup, much like Xu Lin's naturally handsome looks, just naturally beautiful, no adornment needed.

Rong Xiyi had a softer appearance and loved to look pretty and enjoyed makeup.

"Did you pack up your stuff?"

"Xu Lin! You're bullying me, do you think I'm easy to bully? I'm going to tell Mom about this!"

Rong Xiyi looked like a kitten with its fur standing on end.

"Tell your mom?" Xu Lin was slightly puzzled.

"Your mom is my mom too!"

"Huh?"

Xu Lin was surprised and quickly pulled over.

"What's going on?"

"Your mom is my mom, she told me to call her mom! Hmph! From now on, she's my mom too!"

Rong Xiyi was smug, hugging her arms and smiling, "Besides, I saw your ID card. You're more than a month younger than me, little brother, hurry up and call me sister! From now on, you're my little brother!"

"Call you my sister? Are you crazy? Given our relationship, you think it's appropriate?"

Xu Lin said, "Tell me, when did this happen? How come you're so close with my mom now? Weren't you calling her aunt before?"

"Two days ago!"

Rong Xiyi was quite pleased, chuckling, "Xu Lin, this year for the New Year, I'm going to your house, I'm spending the New Year at your place!"

"What about your home?"

"I don't want to go back, I feel no warmth at home, I'm like an outsider, sometimes they eat without even calling me, no one at home cares about me, my dad doesn't like me either, he prefers his twins, not me."

As Rong Xiyi spoke, she couldn't help but feel down.

"What about your grandparents?"

"They don't like me either, only my brother and sister, especially my brother, and they knew about my stepmom and her two kids early on. They didn't like my mom either, she was always depressed, and later got sick..."

"What about your Grandma and Grandpa?"

"They passed away a long time ago, I never met them, my grandpa had my mom when he was almost fifty, Grandma was nine years younger but was also considered an elderly mother, died in childbirth, and then after my mom got married, my grandpa also got sick and passed away."

Rong Xiyi hugged Xu Lin from behind, her cheek resting on his back, murmuring, "Xu Lin, it seems like no one in my family likes me."

"But you still have me, right?"

From this moment on, Xu Lin was her everything.

"Xu Lin, this year I'm going to your house for New Year!"

"Then we'll go back together."
