Chapter 175: This Doesn't Feel Right!
Page 1 of 3
After coaxing and deceiving him by turns, Si Shaozhe turned around and presented his back to his manager.
He quietly clenched his hands into fists, waiting for his punishment to arrive.
But who could have known?
A soft hand touched his back, gradually increasing the pressure...
The heart Si Shaozhe had been holding in suspense slowly settled down.
Holy crap!
Sis was really just giving him a massage!?
And her technique was actually pretty damn good!
Little by little, his vigilance relaxed.
Just as he began to lose himself in the experience, he failed to notice that the woman behind him was gradually gritting her teeth in fury...
Her hand slowly reached toward the rolling pin on the table beside her.
Then...
She gently placed it against Si Shaozhe’s back.
Next—
She gave it a fierce shove!
“Argh!”
...
...
Early the next morning, Lin Yu cheerfully drank his coffee as he left his room, only to see Si Shaozhe standing by the elevator across the hall.
Oh? Still alive, are you?
Wang Fei, who lived in the room beside Si Shaozhe, had also just come out. He wore a pair of dark circles under his eyes and looked utterly exhausted.
Lin Yu found it strange. “Senior Wang, what happened to you?”
As far as he remembered, Wang Fei’s manager had always been extremely protective of him.
Of the three people in the private room yesterday, Wang Fei had been the only one who escaped punishment.
Wang Fei wore a mournful expression.
“My manager betrayed me.”
“What happened?”
“She submitted her resignation letter, then told the company president everything I said yesterday. A new manager came over in the middle of the night, and that guy grabbed me and chewed me out until morning.”
He let out a long sigh.
“I’m finished. Looks like my good days are over!”
Lin Yu merely shrugged and did not continue the subject.
Just then, Si Shaozhe overheard their conversation and walked over with a deeply aggrieved look on his face.
The two of them were astonished to discover that he was completely unharmed.
“Your Sis didn’t punish you last night?”
“You look way too lively. Something doesn’t seem right.”
Si Shaozhe retained his aggrieved expression and said nothing.
Lin Yu fell silent for a moment.
What had happened? Could it be that his Sis had decided to let him run wild, just like Wang Fei’s manager?
That couldn’t be right.
“Did either of you hear the sound of a pig being slaughtered yesterday?” Wang Fei suddenly asked.
At those words, Si Shaozhe instinctively shuddered.
Lin Yu noticed his strange reaction.
A flash of insight struck him.
Ohhh... so that was it!

Seeing Lin Yu laugh for no apparent reason, Wang Fei found it rather strange.
“What’s so funny? Tell us so we can all have a laugh.”
Lin Yu’s gaze fell upon Si Shaozhe.
Wang Fei followed his eyes and immediately understood.
The corners of his mouth curled upward.
Fortunately, he hadn’t been the only one injured yesterday!
Si Shaozhe was still stubbornly refusing to admit anything.
“Why are you two looking at me?”
His eyes unconsciously drifted to the side.
“I’m a top celebrity! How could I possibly make a pig-squealing sound?”
“Be careful, or I’ll sue you for defamation!”
The two exchanged a glance, then deliberately drew out a long, exaggerated response.
“Ohhh...”
He said the squeal last night hadn’t come from him.
They believed him.
As if!
Lin Yu’s room was situated between theirs.
Although the hotel’s soundproofing was fairly decent, that cry had been far too loud.
Anyone who didn’t know better would have thought the hotel was slaughtering a pig!
And those who did know better... well, they knew.
Si Shaozhe was just about to make another excuse and salvage his dignity when he suddenly felt a chill creep up his back.
“Si Shaozhe, did you buy the coffee I asked you to bring?”
Si Shaozhe happened to be standing outside his own room.
The door opened, and Sis wore a dark expression as she grabbed him by the collar.
Only then did Si Shaozhe belatedly remember that he had forgotten all about it.
He cast a desperate look toward the cup of coffee in Lin Yu’s hand.
He reached out, but before he could touch it, he was viciously dragged back into the room.
The door slammed shut.
Lin Yu and Wang Fei pressed themselves nosily against it.
Sure enough—
A pig-slaughtering scream soon rang out from inside.
Wang Fei was about to say something when the sudden appearance of someone behind Lin Yu startled him.
“Morning, Jun! Ha-ha.”
Lin Yu stepped aside.
Wang Fei’s new manager was a middle-aged man in his thirties.
Though he was a rugged, unshaven uncle, nothing could conceal his handsome and refined bearing.
Lin Yu found it strange.
Could such a handsome and elegant man really be the devilish manager Wang Fei had described?
But in the very next second—
The man’s expression changed completely. His voice turned dark, and his features twisted into something terrifying!
“Yesterday I told you to get up early and practice your vocals, and you ran to someone else’s door to chat, did you?”
“Very well, very well. Since you have so much free time, you’ll practice for three extra hours today!”
Lin Yu: ???
Good heavens. Three-plus hours of vocal practice? Was this manager trying to stop Wang Fei from becoming a singer?
Seeing the desperate plea in Wang Fei’s eyes, Lin Yu decisively moved out of the way.
There was nothing he could say.
Even an impartial judge could hardly settle another family’s quarrel.
This was an internal matter at their company.
They could solve it themselves.

As the other two were dragged into their rooms to undergo another round of punishment, Lin Yu stood by the corridor window and sighed helplessly.
Sigh.
Could it be that he alone had returned to his room without being punished—and had even spent several hours stroking the long, shapely legs of the beautiful female CEO in black stockings?
Was he truly the only one forced to endure such hardship?!
Sigh!
Si Shaozhe: ???
Wang Fei: ???
Why was he being rewarded?!
...
After finishing his coffee and scrolling through short videos for a while, Lin Yu went to find Ji Ya.
They had lunch together at noon, then set off directly for the shopping mall in City A.
Three hours later, Lin Yu, who had always believed himself to possess extraordinary stamina, was successfully worn out and collapsed in the men’s rest area of the mall!
By contrast, Ji Ya was still bursting with energy and was even planning their next round of shopping.
Lin Yu could not help but wonder.
Could this woman... have been injected with stimulants!?
His backside had barely touched the seat before Ji Ya’s undisguised murderous gaze forced him to stand up and continue shopping.
By then, shopping bags were hanging from his hands, his neck, and even his head. He was practically turning into a walking department store.
Finally, when Ji Ya hung the necklace she had just bought around Lin Yu’s head, he completely lost it.
“Boss, didn’t we agree that we were coming here to buy clothes for me?”
Ji Ya turned around and looked at him strangely.
“What’s wrong? You don’t think these clothes suit you?”
Lin Yu lowered his head and glanced at the piles of shopping bags.
They were all women’s clothes! How the hell were they supposed to suit him?!
After hearing that, Ji Ya rubbed her chin, apparently giving the matter serious thought.
Then she helplessly spread her hands. “If they don’t suit you, there’s nothing I can do.”
“They’ve already been paid for, and we can’t return them.”
“How about this? I’ll reluctantly take these clothes off your hands.”
“If you want to thank me, just keep massaging me when we get back!”
Lin Yu: ???
Looking at the extremely forced smile on Ji Ya’s face, he finally understood.
Damn it.
She hadn’t brought him shopping at all.
She had brought him along to be a bag carrier!
So he had done all the hard labor, and still had to massage her after they returned?
Fine, fine!
If she wore a black-stockinged camisole dress, he supposed he could accept it!
