The Secret of the Yoga Club: The Women's Identity is Not Simple

The next morning, Lin Feng was awakened by the sunlight streaming through the window.

I rolled over, raised my hand to shield my eyes, and the headache from the hangover surged up like waves, my temples throbbing.

She propped herself up on the mattress and looked down at herself. Her coat was off at some point, several buttons of her shirt were undone, her belt was off, and her pants were wrinkled and hanging on her legs.

He paused for a moment, then a hazy memory slowly surfaced: last night, Wang Yue had helped him into the room, taken off his shoes, and covered him with a blanket. Thinking of this, he scratched the back of his head somewhat embarrassedly, thinking that his secretary had taken such good care of him during this business trip; he'd have to give her a raise.

I got out of bed, went into the bathroom, and took a hot shower. The hot water poured over my head, washing away the remaining alcohol and fatigue little by little.

After showering, he changed into clean clothes and casually tousled his hair in front of the mirror. Just then, he heard a soft knock on the door.

I walked over and opened the door.

Wang Yue stood at the door, already changed. She wore a white short-sleeved T-shirt with light blue denim shorts and white canvas shoes. Her hair was tied in a high ponytail, and she wore very light makeup. She looked fresh and clean, completely different from the secretary who was dressed in a business suit and sitting upright yesterday.

She was carrying two paper bags, which contained the soy milk and steamed buns she had just bought.

"Good morning, Mr. Lin. I guessed you drank quite a bit last night, so you might need something light this morning. I went downstairs and bought some soy milk and steamed buns."

Lin Feng took the paper bag and thanked them. The two sat on the sofa in the suite's living room to eat breakfast. Lin Feng took a bite of a xiaolongbao (soup dumpling), and the soup overflowed, making him gasp.

Wang Yue quickly handed him a tissue and then helped him lift the lid off his soy milk cup. Lin Feng chewed on a steamed bun and mumbled that he was really sorry for troubling her last night, as she had even helped him take off his clothes.

Wang Yue was eating a xiaolongbao (soup dumpling) when she heard this. Her ears turned red instantly, and she quickly shook her head, her voice filled with a nervous urge. "Please don't say that. You always take such good care of me; this is nothing. You drank too much last night, so I helped you take off your coat and shoes so you could sleep more comfortably. That's all—"

"I know. Thank you." Lin Feng interrupted her, his tone natural, then picked up his soy milk and took a sip. "I was originally planning to go back today, but since the contract is already signed, and it's a rare trip to Suzhou, I might as well stay an extra half day. I heard there's a famous ancient town in Jiangnan here, so I'll go check it out and buy some local specialties to take back. Didn't you say you wanted to send some things to your parents last time?"

Wang Yue's eyes lit up immediately. "Really? I heard that the Suzhou embroidery scarves there are very famous, as well as osmanthus cake and pine nut candy. My grandma especially loves sweets."

He became much more lively when he said these words, and his tone was several decibels higher than usual.

After having breakfast, the two took a taxi directly to the ancient town scenic area. The ancient town is a typical Jiangnan water town, with white walls and black tiles, small bridges and flowing water, and all kinds of shops lining both sides of the bluestone road.

The covered boats carrying tourists slowly passed under the bridge on the river, and the boatwomen's Wu dialect tunes floated in the air.

An old man selling sugar paintings on the street was scooping up a spoonful of golden syrup, and with a flick of his wrist, he drew a lifelike butterfly on the stone slab, drawing gasps of amazement from the children gathered around.

It wasn't the weekend, but there were still quite a few tourists. The streets were crowded with people coming and going, and the sweet aroma of osmanthus cakes and baked biscuits wafted from the shops on both sides, mixed with the unique dampness of the river.

Wang Yue wandered between shops like a college student on vacation, picking up this to look at and that to smell.

She picked out several Suzhou embroidery scarves in a silk shop, one for her mother and one for her grandmother, and one for Su Hui as well. Touching the delicate embroidery pattern on the scarf, she turned to Lin Feng and said that her grandmother would definitely like this pattern.

I bought several kilograms of osmanthus cake and pine nut candy at a pastry shop, haggled with the owner for a long time, and finally got an extra small bag of walnut shortbread.

She even squatted in front of a roadside stall and picked out several hand-painted ceramic ornaments, saying she would put them on the coffee table in her new apartment as decorations.

Lin Feng followed behind her, watching her hop from one stall to another, her ponytail swinging behind her head, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously curved into a smile.

I noticed that this girl was usually reserved and demure at the company, but she became very lively outside, like a college student who had just started her vacation.

When she finished picking out her items and was about to pay, he proactively took out his phone to scan the QR code and paid for all the bags she was carrying.

Wang Yue declined several times, but he always managed to deflect her offer with the phrase, "Consider it a Dragon Boat Festival gift from the company to your parents."

After strolling around until the afternoon, the two sat down to rest at a teahouse by the river in the ancient town.

The wooden terrace extends over the river, with the gently flowing water right beneath your feet, and occasionally a covered boat passes by.

Wang Yue leaned against the railing, watching the covered boats slowly glide by on the river, holding a cup of freshly brewed Biluochun tea in her hand, the fragrance of the tea mingling with the river breeze on her cheek.

"Mr. Lin, my parents will be so happy to receive these things. Last time, my mom called to ask how my company's benefits were. After I told her, she didn't quite believe me. She thought it was impossible for a recent graduate to earn such a high salary. Later, after I became a full-time employee, I sent her a picture of my payslip, and she believed me. If I send so many things back this time, she'll probably call and nag me for wasting money."

"Then tell her it's a company benefit and she doesn't have to pay for it herself."

Wang Yue smiled, placed her teacup on the table, remained silent for a moment, and then looked up at him. "Mr. Lin, to be honest, sometimes I feel like I'm incredibly lucky. During the interview, I didn't even know if I would pass, after all, I don't have much secretarial experience, and my academic qualifications aren't particularly outstanding. But you decided on the spot to let me start work the next day, and I was so excited on the bus that I almost cried."

"Perhaps this is... a matter of first impressions! Your performance since joining the company has proven that I wasn't wrong about you. As the company continues to thrive, you will also continue to improve."

Wang Yue lowered her head and slowly circled her finger around the rim of the teacup, revealing her two dimples again.

The wind blowing across the river made her ponytail sway gently.

In the evening, the two arrived at Suzhou Airport and took a late flight back to Hohai University.

Lin Feng drove Wang Yue to her apartment building, watching her open the car door carrying large and small bags. After getting out of the car, she turned around, bent down, and waved into the car window, her ponytail hanging down from one shoulder, the bag of osmanthus cakes in her hand almost slipping out of the bag.

"Mr. Lin, please drive slowly. Send me a message when you get home."

"Go on upstairs and get some rest."

Wang Yue stood there watching Lin Feng's car taillights turn the corner and disappear into the night, then picked up her bags and went upstairs.

The hallway lights in the new apartment building were bright. When I took out my key to open the door, my fingers fumbled around the keyhole several times before I could insert it.

He put the local specialties on the coffee table, sank into the sofa, and took out his phone to send a message to Su Hui: "He spent the whole day with me in the ancient town and bought a lot of things for my parents."

Su Hui replied instantly with a string of exclamation marks, followed by a voice message, her tone full of exasperated excitement: "Why don't you go for it! You don't even seize such a good opportunity!" Wang Yue put her phone face down on the sofa without replying, but the smile on her lips was impossible to suppress.

After leaving Wang Yue's apartment building, Lin Feng turned the steering wheel and went straight to Yang Ru's house.

I should go to her place for some "training" tonight.

Yang Ru had already changed into her yoga clothes and was waiting for him. She wore a dark purple sports vest and matching tight shorts, and her peach-shaped buttocks were full and rounded under the elastic fabric.

After this period of continuous training, my gluteus maximus is now more precisely engaged than before. The peak of my buttocks is slightly raised, and the hip line expands from below my waist and then neatly tucks in at the base of my thighs.

The two of them did a set of glute-specific exercises in the yoga room, starting with the cat-cow pose warm-up, followed by the warrior II pose sequence, and then glute bridge and single-leg hip thrust.

When Yang Ru did the hip thrust, she pushed her hips up a few degrees higher than last time. Her gluteus maximus was taut at the highest point and trembled slightly under the elastic fabric.

Lin Feng squatted down next to her, his palm pressed against her gluteal muscles, his fingers slightly curled up. He could feel the firm flesh of her buttocks throbbing powerfully under his fingertips.

After training, the two returned to their bedroom, where they naturally engaged in some intense physical activity.

Yang Ru was particularly focused tonight, probably because she was going on a business trip for a week and wanted to use up all her energy for the next week in advance.

Afterwards, she lay on Lin Feng's chest, slowly tracing circles on his collarbone with her fingers, and said that the internal bill of quantities for the energy storage battery base project had been compiled and would be sent to his email tomorrow.

The estimated volume of earthwork excavation and foundation treatment is quite large. She had already informed the project team in advance that as long as Shuke and Shuntong's quotes were reasonable, there shouldn't be any major problems.

The formal bidding process is expected to begin next week, so please have him prepare the bid documents in the next few days.

Lin Feng nodded and said that Yonghu had already prepared the quotation template for the transportation department. He would have Lu Fei coordinate the details tomorrow to ensure that there were no mistakes in the technical and commercial bids.

The two discussed the specific work arrangements again, and then turned off the lights.
