Chapter 81: Chapter 081: Bath Soak and Massage

So, after talking to Wang Bo, Lin Yang quickly changed the group name and also added his Uncle Yang Xincheng and Wang Feng, two fishing enthusiasts, to the group.

No one had any objections to the new group name because Lin Yang had named it something that perfectly fit everyone’s mindset.

The WeChat group was named "Goddesses of Fishing," and since the group was all men, naturally, no one had any issues with the name.

Soon, everyone in the group sent a message, quickly filling the chat with laughter and joviality.

Li Xiaopeng: "Haha, I can’t believe I’ve become a god. Cousin, you’re the best...."

Wang Bo: "I like this name too. It’s great!"

Tai: "Master Lin, I have to say, you’ve got serious naming skills."

Wang Feng: "Goddesses of Fishing? Haha, Master Lin really has a way with names!"

Yang Xincheng: "Eh, why was I added to this group? @Lin Yang, Xiao Yang, what’s this group for?"

Lin Yang: "This is a newly formed fishing group. Everyone here are buddies who enjoy fishing. If you have time, just give a shout, and we can go fishing together!"

Wang Bo: "That’s right, from now on we’re all friends here. If you want to fish together, just give a shout."

Li Xiaopeng: "@Yang Xincheng, Uncle, take a look! (Picture of a huge Carp) #Caught this monster just this afternoon, jealous much?"

Yang Xincheng: "Damn! That’s a big carp! If I’d known there were such big fish, I would’ve skipped work to come!"

Lin Yang: "Hahaha...."

....

While Lin Yang and Li Xiaopeng were still chatting in the group,

Wang Bo and Tai had already started driving down the mountain, heading straight back to the city.

After a bumpy ride, the two Tank 300s finally descended the mountain.

Then, the party of four left the forest mountain in two vehicles.

Once they reached the concrete road outside, they released all the scrawny Crucian Carps that they caught in the Heavenly Pit into the river by the roadside, truly letting the fish go free.

Only Lin Yang’s Big Catfish was kept.

About forty minutes later, the four of them successfully made it back to the city.

By this time, Lin Yang’s Tank 300 had been modified as well, and the modifications turned out quite similar to those on Wang Bo’s vehicle.

There was a live fish tank at the back, as well as space for a gas stove and cooking utensils, although not convenient to use on the car, these could be taken down to cook on the ground.

After pouring some water into the live fish tank, Li Xiaopeng and Tai moved the Big Catfish onto Lin Yang’s vehicle.

"Do you guys have any plans for tonight?"

After everything was settled, Wang Bo asked.

It was already past six in the evening, dinner time, and he intended to invite everyone for another meal together.

Despite having spent only a short day together, Lin Yang and Li Xiaopeng clearly agreed with him. It was quite normal for friends to have a meal together.

"My mom just called me saying there’s something I need to deal with, so I need to head back early. I won’t be able to join in. You guys go ahead!"

Upon hearing Wang Bo’s words, Li Xiaopeng expressed his regret.

They were all young guys, fishing during the day and drinking at night, which might be the most comfortable time of the day.

However, as he had other matters today, he had to postpone it until next time.

"I’ve got something today too and need to leave right away. Besides, I need to take a shower," Tai scratched his head, somewhat embarrassed.

"Well then, everyone to their own homes!"

Seeing that everyone had commitments, Lin Yang also smiled. They had all gone fishing in the mountains for a day and indeed got a bit dirty.

He and Wang Bo were fine, but Li Xiaopeng and Tai had caught two big fish, soaking their clothes in multiple places and getting covered in mud.

"If they’re not going, let’s just the two of us go have fun!"

However, at that moment, Wang Bo suddenly put his arm around Lin Yang’s shoulder and said with a raised eyebrow.

"Fun? What kind of fun?" Lin Yang was puzzled by Wang Bo’s suggestion.

"Hahaha, you’ll know soon enough!"

Wang Bo patted Lin Yang on the shoulder and smiled mysteriously.

Li Xiaopeng and Tai gave Wang Bo a puzzled look.

Without overthinking it, they all said their goodbyes, promising to meet again next time, and drove off home.

Lin Yang got into his newly-modified Tank 300 and followed Wang Bo’s car to the place he was talking about earlier.

"Here we are, this is the place!"

After finding a good parking spot and parking the cars, Lin Yang got out and saw... wow, Yunmu?

Yunmu, Lin Yang knew about it, was a top-tier bathhouse in Jiangdong City.

Wang Bo had attended university in the Northeast, where they all loved to go to the bathhouse, soak for a while, and then get scrubbed down by a masseur, which was beyond relaxing.

But after coming here, he found that the bathhouses seemed to operate quite differently; people’s motivations for taking a bath were often not so pure....

Of course, some bathhouses were clean, without any messy business.

Lin Yang had certainly heard of such bathhouses, but his prior financial constraints had prevented him from ever enjoying them.

And this Yunmu must be the most top-notch bath center in Jiangdong City.

Lin Yang had heard of it before; he knew that just the entrance fee was 288 yuan, and if you wanted to dine or get a scrub inside, you couldn’t really leave without spending at least eight hundred yuan per person without doing anything.

"Shall we give it a try?"

Gazing at the bathhouse’s dazzling gate, Lin Yang was slightly tempted.

After all, he was now considered a wealthy man, and experiencing this would not be an issue, given his current daily income. It seemed that a visit here would be a minor expense for him.

As Lin Yang hesitated whether to enter or not, Wang Bo leaned closer and said, "Let’s go in; I’ll treat you today. They have clean clothes for changing."

Upon hearing Wang Bo’s offer, Lin Yang hesitated no more – since he had already come this far.

The two of them entered through the main gate together.

"Two of us, together."

"Certainly, gentlemen, please follow me."

Upon hearing Wang Bo, a formally dressed attendant in the lobby guided them to change their shoes.

After changing shoes and taking their locker keys, Lin Yang and Wang Bo headed to the men’s bath.

Having changed into their bathing clothes, the two started off with a shower, washed their hair, and then proceeded to the large central bath.

As the warm waters of the pool lapped over his chest, Lin Yang couldn’t help but exhale deeply, relishing the comfort—ah, delightful.

"My dad’s friends with the owner of this place, so I’m quite familiar with it. The water in these pools is fresh hot spring water changed daily. They own a hot spring villa nearby, but it’s far up in the mountains and hard to access by road. So, in addition to running it, they transport water here from there every day around three or four o’clock, changing it once a day. Feel free to soak without worries!"

As Lin Yang settled into the pool, Wang Bo sat down beside him, squinted his eyes, leaned against the poolside, and shared all this with Lin Yang.

And Lin Yang nodded, hearing this.

This was his first time soaking in such a place, and he had to admit, it was truly comfortable.

He used to wonder why people would spend hundreds or thousands to take a bath when one could simply soak in a tub at home—wasn’t it the same?

Now he finally understood why.

A professional bath was incredibly comforting, something that regular home setups simply couldn’t match. Moreover, Lin Yang could detect a hint of sulfur in the water.

Though faint, it was definitely there, and together with the water temperature, it was simply blissful.

Of course, the best was yet to come.

After soaking, it was time for the scrub.

After they finished soaking, Wang Bo led Lin Yang to a private room designated for scrubbing their prestigious guests.

The skills of the scrubbing masters here were quite authentic.

Before starting, they would place hot towels over their eyes, then wrap their feet with hot towels as well...

Following the scrub, there would be hair washing, back slapping, salt-rubbing—a whole sequence of thirteen steps, with the scrubbing alone taking nearly an hour.

After sweating it out in the sauna for a bit to let the salt melt away, they showered again.

Coming out, Lin Yang felt an unprecedented level of refreshment, inside and out!

Naturally, he was also quite hungry by now, as it was nearing eight o’clock in the evening after the scrub.

Today, besides a bit of breakfast and the rice noodles Wang Bo made at noon, he hadn’t had a bite of food.

"Let’s go, change into our bath robes, and then head for dinner."

Not only Lin Yang was hungry—so was Wang Bo, who while gesturing, led Lin Yang to change and then to dine.

The bath center featured its own restaurant, offering three types of meals.

One was a buffet, priced at 68 yuan per person.

The second option was à la carte, and the price depended on how expensive the dishes you ordered were.

The third option, which Wang Bo took Lin Yang to, was teppanyaki.

They ordered several portions of Wagyu beef, grilled prawns, steamed eggs with fish roe, pan-fried goose liver, among other dishes.

The meal was served quickly, and needless to say, not only was the service prompt, but the food was truly delicious!

"We’ll have to drive in a bit, so let’s skip the alcohol. After we eat, let’s go upstairs for a massage."

With some food in his stomach, Wang Bo said to Lin Yang.

"Sounds good."

Lin Yang’s eyes sparkled upon hearing Wang Bo’s suggestion. Was it finally happening? He felt a flutter of excitement, but he couldn’t show it; displaying too much eagerness wouldn’t be appropriate...

And so it was.

Lin Yang, with some conflicted feelings, finished his dinner and then followed Wang Bo upstairs.

But soon enough, he learned the meaning of "the greater the expectations, the greater the disappointment."

Because when he followed Wang Bo upstairs, he found that they shared the same room...

If they were going to indulge in "that sort of thing," it certainly wouldn’t be in the same room; hence, it had to be a legitimate massage bath. But regular was just fine—Lin Yang wasn’t about to admit any sense of letdown.

But it must be said, the two masseuses who came in were very pretty—both young women appeared to be in their twenties, dressed in body-hugging cheongsams. Although the slits almost reached their waists, they were indeed quite modestly dressed.

Like Wang Bo, Lin Yang opted for a full-body massage, a bone-setting treatment, and a foot massage—three services over two hours.
