The Self-Cultivation of a Reborn Massage Therapist

Chapter 340 One Week

Zhao Xiaochui's information extends far beyond just the Wei surname; it also includes the Leng surname and the Jin surname behind Jinling.

The data is detailed and comprehensive, but if the Asian youths want to conduct a more in-depth investigation into their whereabouts and design an accident based on Zhao Xiaochui's "ideas," they still need a lot of time for meticulous planning.

Therefore, the relaxed and slow-paced group did not take any further extreme actions, and the online uproar gradually subsided.

From the outside, it seems that the relaxed and slow pace has exhausted all its tricks and is at its wit's end.

Even so, no one intended to take any further action against the small shop—all parties had realized that only by fundamentally dealing with Zhao Xiaochui could all the problems caused by the relaxed and slow travel be truly resolved.

It wasn't that no one had considered using physical means to threaten, intimidate, or even worse, but when someone discovered clues about Zhao Xiaochui's overseas whereabouts, the "certain department's" swift on-site investigation immediately extinguished all such thoughts.

As a result, all forces temporarily put their plans aside.

Let things proceed slowly and steadily, developing quietly.

Although it remains closed.

As a rising super-top account on the short video platform, "Easy Walk" has consistently attracted attention across the internet through its daily live streams. People are watching this small shop through the lens.

……

It's a new morning. Old Zhou has just finished his morning exercise group activity and dropped his grandson off at school. Now he's leisurely sitting at home watching a live stream.

The "Relaxed and Slow-Paced Travel" program started a week ago, with live streams starting promptly every day.

The morning sessions consisted of popular science and guided practice of Qigong. The high-end wellness class, led by the girls, was so effective that not a single person requested a refund due to the recent controversy.

What's even more astonishing is that the previous "value-for-money training" course, which cost 6,800 yuan, has already ended, and the fee for the new training course has soared to tens of thousands of yuan.

The relaxed and leisurely pace program has eliminated all special privileges for neighbors. Want to sign up? Sure, but you must pay the full training fee.

Looking at those old customers who had once enjoyed preferential treatment but didn't appreciate it, Old Zhou had only two words to say:
Live it!

The few regular customers who suggested bringing the "Ugly Donkey Yellow Vest" into the shop are now not only permanently refused service by Easy Slow Travel, but even their neighbors aren't letting them off the hook. In Lao Zhou's opinion, unless these people sell their houses and move away from Fatou, they can forget about having a peaceful day as long as Easy Slow Travel exists.

What worries longtime customers even more is that, according to rumors, once the Easy Travel service restarts, the "people-friendly price" of 288 yuan will be a thing of the past. The starting price will be 888 yuan, and it will be adjusted at any time based on supply and demand.

As someone who has mastered the Six Healing Sounds Technique and personally experienced significant improvements in his health, Mr. Zhou, though secretly pained by the price increase, knows better than anyone else that in the face of irreversible lesions such as ligament calcification, maintaining a high quality of life ultimately depends on the hands of the Easy Walk technician.

Now almost everyone in the country knows about this massage parlor. Old Zhou has given up hope of a price reduction in the future, and can only shake his head helplessly, refocusing his attention on the morning exercise live stream on the screen.

Today, my son, Xiao Zhou, and his wife had worked an extra night shift and were unusually able to take a day off and stay home. His wife was preparing lunch in the kitchen, while Xiao Zhou sat in the living room with his father watching a live stream.

"Dad, what's all that commotion in the next building?" Xiao Zhou lowered his voice instinctively when he heard the noise outside. His position was sensitive, and he was used to suppressing his instinct to watch the commotion. "They did something shady," Old Zhou looked up from his phone and glanced at his son. "Those girls at the massage parlor who were almost driven to the brink of collapse by online harassment, that place next door really played a part. Now that the shop's closed, a lot of the neighbors' medical needs have been delayed, so naturally everyone's taking their anger out on them."

Xiao Zhou immediately understood. That massage parlor was a sensitive topic for him, and his recent overtime work was related to it. He felt no sympathy whatsoever for his neighbor who had brought this upon himself.

"Have you finished dealing with all that stuff at your workplace?" Old Zhou asked casually.

Xiao Zhou answered without hesitation, "It's all been taken care of, and several new leaders have been appointed in our unit."

Old Zhou nodded, then looked back at his phone and suddenly sighed: "What exactly did that Zhao Xiaochui do at this store?"

Xiao Zhou remained silent. Not only was his father puzzled, but he was also completely baffled. His gaze fell on the live stream screen on his father's phone, watching the constantly scrolling comments, and he said softly, "That comment just now was from a secondary account of the WJ department."

“This is nothing,” Old Zhou glanced at his son. “I’ve seen three comments on the official account of District J alone. Judging from their tone, they all seem to owe someone a favor.”

Xiao Zhou stared intently at the screen and suddenly said, "The official accounts of the National Health Commission and Peking Union Medical College Hospital also left comments. Dad, is the Six-Character Mantra really that magical?"

Old Zhou chuckled: "How could that be? Without a masseuse from a massage parlor leading you through the practice, it's just the most ordinary form of exercise."

"Then what's with all these thank-you messages?" Xiao Zhou pointed to the screen full of gratitude comments. "Were they paid for?"

"That's because the girls' live streams have gotten some sedentary people moving around. Their rusty bodies have improved in a short time, so they're naturally grateful. But to go from sub-health to true health..." Old Zhou shook his head, "unless you take a training course at a massage parlor or stick to exercising to lose fat and build muscle—but that requires a lot of self-discipline."

This is why training courses are becoming increasingly popular—it's the only shortcut to health.

"So, if you were in charge of Ugly Donkey, what would you do?" Old Zhou suddenly changed the subject, looking at his son and asking, "Judging from the current situation, it seems that Easy Slow Travel doesn't intend to pursue this matter any further, except for that lawsuit."

After careful consideration, Xiao Zhou slowly said, "As long as the person in charge of Ugly Donkey isn't an idiot, he should realize that the kid is no ordinary person. So the best situation now is to accept the loss and make up for it, not to provoke this massage parlor anymore, and then quietly wait for the storm to pass."

Old Zhou nodded in agreement: "I've learned something new in my old age. This is the first time I've seen something like this. What exactly did that kid do?"

With deep questions in his mind, Lao Zhou looked at his phone again.

Xiao Zhou nodded, looked at the smiling girl in the live stream, then at his father who was watching intently, and suddenly asked, "Dad, why don't you find a companion?"

Old Zhou was taken aback at first, then flew into a rage: "What nonsense are you talking about! I'm waiting for the next live broadcast."

"What live broadcast?"

"The massive construction campaign at Jinghai Industrial Park. Watching that scene, it felt like I was back in my youth. Ah, the nostalgia..."

As soon as he finished speaking, the camera suddenly switched to show the spectacular scenery of Jinghai Industrial Park.
