Chapter 96: Chapter 95 Miss Cried

Common origin? Lin Tian didn’t catch on for a moment. People could be said to share a common origin, but how could things be described that way?

"What do you mean?" Lin Tian asked, puzzled.

"It means," Zi Yan explained somewhat vaguely, "that my acupuncture secret technique and your massage technique may have originated from the same founder, or perhaps the same school. Basically, that’s the idea."

However, Lin Tian finally understood. These two things could possibly have been created by the same awesome person.

"Sister Zi Yan’s theory sounds highly credible." Xiao Manxue thought for a moment and said, "Similar cases exist in the Ancient Martial World, like a set of boxing techniques and a set of swordsmanship created by the same person but scattered everywhere due to other reasons. They share similarities in their moves and the circulation of True Qi and even complement each other."

"Complement each other?" Lin Tian remembered that his grandfather had once mentioned offhandedly that the massage technique seemed to be missing something. Could it be that it and Zi Yan’s acupuncture secret technique were part of the same set?

"Lin Tian, would you be interested in comparing notes with each other?" Seeing Lin Tian intrigued, Zi Yan struck while the iron was hot.

Why was Zi Yan so eager to exchange secret techniques? Logically, the value of the acupuncture secret technique should be higher than that of the massage technique. He really couldn’t understand what she was up to.

He glanced at Zi Yan, who looked sincere, and suddenly it clicked. Zi Yan had mentioned earlier that she couldn’t master that set of acupuncture secret techniques; she wanted to solve the problems of acupuncture through the massage techniques.

But who could guarantee that the acupuncture secret techniques she shared were complete? So Lin Tian grinned and said, "Sister, it’s not that I don’t trust you, but who knows whether the secret technique you bring out is real or fake? You said last time that if I helped Miss solve a problem, you would serve me once, but that promise hasn’t been fulfilled yet. How can I believe you?"

"Lin Tian, Sister Zi Yan is my friend. Why are you doubting her like this?" Miss couldn’t stand it and was very dissatisfied with Lin Tian’s suspicion; she felt very awkward.

Damn it, this woman is talking without feeling the pain—her skills aren’t on the line, so she can speak lightly. Besides, she’s your friend, not mine. I spent so much effort and sweat learning the massage secret technique as a kid, and now just because she’s your friend, I’m supposed to trust her unconditionally and teach it to her? Why should I!

"Miss, I am also a friend of your sister. Could you pass on the Ancient Martial arts techniques your master taught you to me?" Lin Tian counter-asked discontentedly.

"I..." Xiao Manxue was at a loss for words, only able to glare at Lin Tian with big eyes. She knew he was being unreasonable, but she couldn’t refute him. Humph, this jerk just loves to argue.

"Hey, Miss, you, a pure young lady, staring at me, a fresh young man like this, I get scared!" Lin Tian pretended to step back.

Zi Yan snickered from the side, her voice dripping with allure, "Oh, I can’t stand the two of you. If you want to flirt and argue, could you pick another place?"

"Sister Zi Yan, you’re making fun of me too? Who wants to flirt and argue with this jerk? If you like him so much, take him then," Xiao Manxue said, her cheeks blushing all the way down to her fair neck, clearly annoyed.

"Manxue, you said it, don’t regret it, okay? I’ll really take him then," Zi Yan said with a teasing smile as she naturally took Lin Tian’s arm, linking it like a couple.

Lin Tian had pretended to be a couple twice within a day, leaving him speechless.

This woman wanted to seduce him with her beauty. Lin Tian turned his head and glanced at the charming face close before his eyes. Noticing her ears had turned slightly red, he thought, so you can blush too! Since that’s the case, he would play along, not wanting to disappoint her well-meaning attempt.

With this sleazy thought, Lin Tian intentionally moved closer to Zi Yan. This movement made Zi Yan stiffen, and the blush on her ears quickly spread, turning her pretty face beet red. Regardless, Zi Yan had made her intentions clear earlier, determined to win over Lin Tian. She shot him a glance for not being honest and, stifling her embarrassment, still clung to his arm.

"So, Manxue, you’re not jealous anymore, right? You guys pretended to be boyfriend and girlfriend to fool Song Yanan, but you couldn’t fool me." Zi Yan continued to tease and poked through their little act.

As for being jealous, Lin Tian thought it was unlikely. With the Miss’s haughty nature, he doubted any man could make her jealous yet.

"Hehe, Sister, your observation is excellent. You immediately knew that the Miss and I were pretending to be a couple. But you also got it wrong; our Miss could never be jealous of me. She is the proud daughter of heaven, and I’m just a humble bodyguard. The difference between us is like that of the heavens and earth," Lin Tian chuckled, chatting nonsensically with Sister while cheerfully looking at Xiao Manxue.

"Lin Tian, you..." Xiao Manxue, frustrated upon hearing this, pointed at Lin Tian and said, "Do you really see me as such a calculating person?"

Does it matter what kind of person she is? Hopefully, the Miss hadn’t gotten too lost in pretending to be his girlfriend.

Lin Tian hadn’t thought much about it, and casually replied, "Miss, I’m just your employee. How important is it what the boss appears like in the eyes of an employee?"

"Not important? Not important?" Xiao Manxue murmured twice, and suddenly felt an indescribable hurt. Angry, she said, "Lin Tian, you are a bastard. I hate you!"

After saying that, she turned and ran toward the staircase, but she had barely taken two steps when her high heel skewed, causing her to stagger and almost fall. Regaining her balance, the Miss quickly took off her high heel and threw it at Lin Tian, then ran downstairs barefoot.

Facing the flying high heel, Lin Tian effortlessly caught it with his empty hand. Looking at the delicate and beautiful high heel, his mind was in a daze. He saw the Miss had actually cried, the crystal clear droplet flying in the air was unmistakably her tear.

Sigh, my mouth has really done it this time, making the Miss cry twice, Lin Tian inwardly sighed. Should he chase after her, but what would he say if he caught up? Seeing her like that, she must certainly hate me, Lin Tian thought messily, undecided.

"What are you spacing out for, go after her now!" Zi Yan let go of him and urged sternly.

No choice, she was the boss, he had taken her salary, so he might as well chase her. Lin Tian didn’t even bother grabbing his suit coat, carrying Xiao Manxue’s high heel and raced to the staircase, running faster than the elevator.

"Lin Tian, think about it and decide whether you want to swap with me. I’m waiting here for you!" Zi Yan’s enchanting voice came from behind, still contemplating the massage secret technique.

Thinking about swapping with you? Trading seems more like it. How could I be in the mood to deal with these things right now? The priority is to catch up and see what’s wrong with the Miss, Lin Tian thought irritably, already dashing out of the staircase exit.
