Chapter 152_1
A push, a crack, a pull, and a lift .
Ling Ran casually applied the osteopathic massage method on Meng Xue . With just one hand, he massaged Meng Xue to the point where she wanted to faint . When he used his other hand as well at times, nasal grunts could even be heard .
In less than a minute, Meng Xue had begun to snore softly on the chair .
Li Lei felt inexplicably embarrassed . She smiled bashfully and said, “It’s been tiring for Brother Shanyu . She has only slept for four to five hours in the past few days . ”
Ling Ran did not respond .
Compared with the elderly in the nursing home, the problems in Meng Xue’s cervical spine were much lighter . It was a small problem of being overworked and stressed out . With his Master Level Osteopathic Massage, Ling Ran could easily solve the problem . After all, the muscles and bones of the elderly would inevitably weaken . Even with osteopathic massages, Ling Ran could not help them regain the strength they had in their youth .
Meng Xue was only twenty years old and had gone through long-term training . It was much easier to restore her body to a healthy state . It was within the abilities of an osteopathic massage to restore her health .
He also used the rubbing technique to relax the base of Meng Xue’s neck . With a casual pull, two cracks were heard .
“The cervical spine should be all right now,” Ling Ran said . He patted Meng Xue’s shoulder under Li Lei’s piercing gaze . “The massage is done . You can get up now . ”
“Can’t you let Brother Shanyu rest a little longer?” Li Lei was fuming . “How can you act this way? She rarely gets sleep, and you just had to wake her up…”
Meng Xue woke up in a daze . She mumbled, “Miss Li, it’s all right . ”
“Sleeping in a sitting posture isn’t good for the cervical spine . ” Ling Ran paused and said, “It’s also very easy for you to feel drowsy . ”
As Ling Ran spoke, he grabbed Meng Xue’s shoulders with both hands and lightly kneaded it, causing Meng Xue, who had just begun clearing her mind, to feel drowsy again .
Ling Ran pushed forward, the natural step to take after what he did earlier . He made Meng Xue rest on her head and arms on the coffee table . He then looked at his watch and said, “I’ll give you twenty minutes . You can be rejuvenated with a twenty-minute nap . ”
After that, Ling Ran took out his mobile phone, unconcerned about everything else around him .
“Um…” Li Lei felt resigned but also angry . She said, “Can’t you just find a place or let her sleep on a bed?”
“Did you bring any bed sheets to cover the bed?” Ling Ran asked .
“No…” Li Lei shook her head .
Ling Ran pursed his lips . He was too lazy to continue talking to her .
*Creak . *
The sound came from the stairs . It was Huang Maoshi . He had stepped on a loose piece of wood .
Ling Ran continued swiping at his phone . Meanwhile, Li Lei was feeling extremely nervous . She was like a cat who had stepped on its tail . She immediately jumped up and rushed to the stairs .
“Who are you?” Li Lei hissed as she looked at Huang Maoshi .
Once he was discovered, Huang Maoshi stopped hiding . He thudded up the stairs and smiled at Ling Ran before he stared at Meng Xue’s back . He even wanted to go around to the front to take a look .
“Hey, hold up, who are you?” Li Lei’s voice was still soft, but she sounded extremely serious .
For entertainment management companies, the current situation was definitely something they had to avoid .
Of course, being discovered in small clinics was better than being discovered in big hospitals . But being discovered in big hospitals was better than being discovered in a man’s house… Li Lei began to conceive some ideas for the inevitable press release .
“I’m the sales manager of Changxi Medical Company . ” Huang Maoshi gave himself a promotion in his heart before he proceeded to go forward, because he wanted to see Meng Xue’s face .
Li Lei could not stop him . After a few seconds, Huang Maoshi saw Meng Xue’s mask-covered face and smiled foolishly .
“I thought she looked familiar . Is she Meng Xue? Is it really Meng Xue?” Huang Maoshi’s words were full of emotion . He had been a model before and he had quite the achievement when he was in the modeling industry . Therefore, he would naturally acknowledge and even worship a big star like Meng Xue .
Huang Maoshi gently pulled a chair next to the coffee table and sat opposite Meng Xue . He wanted to take a closer look .
“Hey, you better get up . ” Li Lei became rude in her manner of speech . With one arm blocking Huang Maoshi, she continued, “You’d best believe that with just one call, I can make your life a living hell . ”
Huang Maoshi chuckled, but he still reluctantly got up . He knew that superstars were all accompanied by bodyguards . Even if he wanted to linger around, he could not .
“Meng Xue’s here to get a check-up? What sickness does she have?” Huang Maoshi’s thirst for some gossip had not been extinguished .
Li Lei hesitated for a moment before she said, “Just problems with her cervical spine . We invited Doctor Ling to perform some osteopathic manipulation on her . ”
Li Lei felt compelled to answer the question, or else all sorts of rumors would be passed around .
Huang Maoshi chuckled and said, “Doctor Ling’s massage technique is very good . Are the problems with Meng Xue’s cervical spine serious? In all honesty, I know a few old Chinese medicine practitioners . They’ve performed massages for decades . ”
Li Lei could not help but laugh .
If there were any old Chinese medicine practitioners who had the same level of massaging skills as Ling Ran, why would they rush back to Yun Hua and come to such a small clinic?
Li Lei was not convinced that Huang Maoshi would know anyone who was skilled enough either . She had already pressed the call button just now . As of right then, all she had to do was stall Huang Maoshi while she waited for the bodyguards to come up .
*Creak . *
*Creak . *
Two men in black suits walked up the stairs . Both of them occupied a favorable position to Huang Maoshi’s left and right .
“Sir, please leave . ” Li Lei felt at ease .
Huang Maoshi was also in good shape, but he had a much softer personality . When he saw the two big men coming over, he immediately shrank . Nonetheless, he was reluctant to leave .
“Wait…” Meng Xue was awakened by the crowd . She looked up and rubbed her arms, which were aching because of how she had been sleeping on them . “Miss Li, what time is it?” she asked .
“You slept for less than ten minutes,” Li Lei whispered, “Do you want to sleep in the car for a while?”
“There’s no need for that . ” Meng Xue exercised her neck as a smile appeared on her face . “My cervical spine doesn’t hurt anymore . Thank you, Doctor Ling . ”
Meng Xue may have broken cups and plates when she was angry on her personal plane, but in public spaces, she still knew how to maintain her public image .
Lin Ran only nodded slightly .
Meng Xue was upset, so she only turned her head to Huang Maoshi and smiled at him before she gave him a nod .
“I… My name is Huang Maoshi, I’m your fan . ” Huang Maoshi was a little excited . He recalled the days when he was a model . Even back then, he had never encountered a superstar like Meng Xue .
Those girls were all shallow and superficial . They did not have Tang Lian’s purity or Meng Xue’s genuity .
“Hello . ” Meng Xue nodded in a well-practiced manner .
Huang Maoshi was bubbling with happiness . He took the chance and asked, “Can we take a photo together?”
“Not today,” Li Lei cut in and answered, “Meng Xue’s busy . I’ll give you this autographed picture . ”
At the same time, Huang Maoshi was lifted off the ground by the bodyguards who were flanking him, and brought downstairs .
“Senior Brother Huang, what happened?” Tang Lian came up to Huang Maoshi slowly . She looked very surprised .
“It’s nothing, it’s nothing . ” Huang Mao’s face was full of smiles as he recalled what had just happened .
Tang Lian was even more confused . Her curiosity surged and she whispered, “Senior Brother Huang, what’s going on upstairs? Which company do the people who arrived last belong to?”
“Company? Oh, they aren’t from a pharmaceutical company . ”
“They’re not?”
“Yep . ”
“That’s weird . What are they doing upstairs?”
“Let’s chat . ” Huang Maoshi’s tone was somewhat perfunctory . He looked back at Tang Lian and compared her with Meng Xue . Talking to her suddenly seemed to be dull and boring .
