Chen Yang sat down on the edge of the bed, rubbed his hands together to warm them, and then placed them on Liu Yifei's lower abdomen.

The master-level massage technique begins, with the fingertips precisely locating the Guanyuan acupoint and slowly applying pressure.

The method of circulating qi and blood recorded in the primary chapter of the Yellow Emperor's Inner Classic was activated simultaneously, and a warm internal force permeated from the palm and flowed into the body along the meridians.

Liu Yifei's body suddenly arched up, then slowly relaxed again.

"Ouch...it's so hot."

"Bear with it, the cold is too strong, you have to use your strength."

Chen Yang pressed her Qihai acupoint with his other hand, applying pressure to both acupoints simultaneously.

The chill seemed to have encountered a natural enemy, and began to spread outwards.

Liu Yifei could clearly feel something cold in her lower abdomen being gradually dispelled, replaced by waves of warm heat.

The pain was visibly reduced.

"What's wrong with your hand? It's more effective than the Chinese medicine I've been taking for ten years."

Liu Yifei looked at him incredulously.

"A family-inherited craft, not to be passed on to outsiders."

Chen Yang was talking nonsense with a straight face, but his hands didn't stop moving.

Push upwards with your fingertips from the Guanyuan acupoint, passing through the Zhongji and Shimen acupoints, all the way to the navel.

Stop and massage each acupoint a few times to gradually clear the blocked meridians.

Liu Yifei's complexion visibly improved, slowly regaining its color from its previous deathly pallor.

However, the location of this massage is quite subtle.

Chen Yang's hands rubbed his lower abdomen for a while, and then slid down to the belt meridian acupoint on his waist.

The tingling, numb sensation mixed with the therapeutic warmth made Liu Yifei feel uneasy.

"You pressed that acupoint... did you press the wrong spot?"

Liu Yifei said, biting her lip.

"No, the Dai Mai acupoint is right here. Mr. Liu, you can go back and search it on Baidu."

Chen Yang's thumb drew circles on her waist, pressing so hard that Liu Yifei almost melted.

"I don't believe you for a second. You're clearly just... um..."

The second half of the sentence was interrupted by a groan.

Chen Yang happened to press a particularly sensitive acupoint, and the tingling sensation shot straight to Liu Yifei's forehead.

"This acupoint is called Mingmen, located on the lumbar spine. Unblocking it is very good for your health."

As Chen Yang spoke, he made her turn over and lie face down.

Liu Yifei lay face down on the pillow, her face burning red.

She couldn't tell whether she was being treated or being taken advantage of, but her body felt incredibly comfortable, and the chill that had tormented her for over a decade was gradually fading away.

Chen Yang started his hand from the Mingmen acupoint and pushed down along the bladder meridian on both sides of the spine.

Each strike was imbued with warm internal energy, its force precise to the millimeter.

When the massage reached the lumbosacral region, Liu Yifei's body trembled again.

"Don't go any further!"

"The Baliao acupoints are here; these acupoints are the most crucial for treating your constitution."

Chen Yang said with an innocent look on his face.

"Who are you trying to fool? There's no acupoint there!"

"It really exists. You can touch it if you don't believe me."

Chen Yang took her hand and guided her to place it on that spot.

When Liu Yifei touched that spot, she did indeed feel a small, recessed pit.

"...Really?"

"Why would I lie to you about something like this?"

Chen Yang continued to apply pressure to that acupoint, continuously channeling warm internal energy into it.

Liu Yifei lay on the pillow, her face burning hot, but her body was groaning with pleasure.

The feeling of being enveloped in warmth was wonderful; I had never experienced such a pleasant relief from my chronic cold symptoms that I had suffered for over a decade.

About ten minutes later.

Chen Yang stopped and took the blanket next to him to cover her.

"Alright, the meridians are basically unblocked, and most of the cold has dissipated. However, your constitution is congenital, so massage can only provide temporary relief. To cure it completely..."

He paused deliberately.

Liu Yifei turned over, pulled the blanket over herself, and only showed her eyes as she looked at him.

How can it be cured completely?

"It requires long-term conditioning."

As Chen Yang spoke, he took out the Wenyang Jade Pendant from his system space.

The jade pendant is warm and smooth all over, with a bluish-green color and a faint warm light flowing over it. Holding it in your hand, you can feel a comfortable warmth spreading from your palm throughout your body.

"What is this?"

Liu Yifei reached out a hand from under the covers, took the jade pendant, and examined it from all angles.

"Wearing it close to your body will help with your cold constitution."

Chen Yang placed the jade pendant in her palm. As soon as the warm jade touched Liu Yifei's skin, she clearly felt a warm current rush from her palm into her body.

The warmth was very similar to the feeling I got from Chen Yang's massage, gentle and soothing, gradually melting away the lingering chill in my body.

"It feels so warm... What kind of jade is this? I've worn so many pieces of jewelry, but I've never seen anything like it."

Liu Yifei pressed the jade pendant to her chest, and that area was immediately enveloped in warmth.

"Just consider this a token of our love."

Chen Yang said, leaning against the headboard.

"Pah, who wants your token of love? I've already taken this watch and the jade today, I'm practically yours now."

Although Liu Yifei said that, she gripped the jade pendant tightly in her hand, showing no intention of returning it.

"In that case, the petition from this morning can be considered a pledge of loyalty, and this jade can be considered a betrothal gift. Mr. Liu, do you see any other procedures that are missing? I'll make up for them all at once."

"Can't you be serious for once?"

Liu Yifei kicked him from under the covers.

Chen Yang grabbed that fair and tender ankle and tickled the sole of her foot twice with his fingers.

"Stop fooling around!"

Liu Yifei let out a howl and shrank back, rolling to the other side of the bed wrapped in the blanket, her head peeking out from under the blanket and glaring at him.

She looked nothing like the icy female CEO she once was; she was clearly just a bullied little woman.

Chen Yang was itching to try it himself.

"By the way, Yifei, are you usually particularly sensitive to cold, with your hands and feet getting cold in winter, and your periods being irregular?"

He dropped his playful expression and asked seriously.

Liu Yifei paused for a moment, then nodded.

How do you know so much?

"Your constitution is called an innate Yin constitution, which means that there is too much Yin and cold energy in your body. Ordinary Chinese and Western medicine can only treat the symptoms and not the root cause. My massage technique, combined with this jade pendant, can gradually improve your condition over a long period of time."

Chen Yang explained to her in a different way what he had learned from the system.

Liu Yifei was silent for a moment, then said in a low voice.

"My hands and feet have never been warm since I was a child. In winter, I even have to sleep with an electric blanket on. Once, when I was on a business trip to the north, I fainted from the pain in the hotel. When I was taken to the hospital, they said they couldn't find anything wrong with me."

As she said this, a hint of grievance crept into her voice.

"When I used to work at the airport, I was in so much pain during the annual meeting that I couldn't stand up. People even spread rumors that I was faking illness to slack off."

Chen Yang reached out and pulled her back, blanket and all, and hugged her in his arms.

"It won't happen again. I'm here for you."

Liu Yifei buried her face in his chest and mumbled something.

"Chen Yang, if you lie to me, I won't let you get away with it."

"Mr. Liu, I would never lie to you. What if you're unhappy and send me an arrest warrant at the airport? How am I supposed to go out then?"

Liu Yifei was amused and punched him in the chest.

The two of them stayed close together against the headboard for a while, in silence.

The sky outside the window gradually darkened, and the afterglow of the setting sun bathed the entire bedroom in an orange-red hue.

Liu Yifei glanced down at her disheveled appearance, then at Chen Yang's shirt with all the buttons torn off, and her face flushed again.

"I'm going to take a shower first."

She wrapped herself in the blanket and prepared to get out of bed.

He took two steps and then stopped, looked back at Chen Yang, and hesitated for a moment.

"Do you... want to come along?"

Chen Yang raised an eyebrow at her awkward and hesitant manner.

"Mr. Liu, weren't you just screaming in pain a moment ago? How come you're back to normal so quickly..."

"I told you to take a shower! Who said anything about doing anything else!"

Liu Yifei's face flushed red all the way to her ears, and she stomped her feet while wrapped in the blanket.

"I mean, you were all sweaty just now, showering together would save water. What on earth were you thinking?!"

"Save water? Mr. Liu, you earn two million a year, and you're talking to me about saving water?"

"Chen Yang, are you coming or not?!"

Chen Yang got up from the bed and slowly walked towards the bathroom.

"Come on, Mr. Liu, if you say we should save water, then we should save water. My greatest strength is that I'm obedient."

Liu Yifei was so angry she wanted to bite her teeth. She wrapped herself in the blanket and walked ahead with a thud.

As she reached the bathroom door, she suddenly turned around.

Her face, flushed crimson by the setting sun, held a mixture of coquettishness and shyness.

"Chen Yang, after you come in... help me put the jade on, I can't reach the clasp behind my neck by myself."
