Chapter Fifty-Nine: After-Dinner Entertainment

  Watching the girls enjoy a sumptuous dinner, completely disregarding their image, lying on the sofa complaining that they ate too much, and their weight loss plan for the past few days has been ruined. Today, Han Ankang, who rarely gets to be the boss, doesn't have to clean up those things, is also used to these girls' contradictory psychology.

  Looking at the little crystal lying flat on the sofa, looking a bit uncomfortable and still complaining about eating too much, Han Ankang, as a doctor. It's also hard to imagine that this slender-looking girl could eat so much food just now. Now it seems that she has eaten too much and feels uncomfortable!

  He really couldn't understand why this girl, who was usually so stubborn, had such a low resistance to delicious food. Han Ankang walked over to Zheng Xiujing and sat down beside her, picking up one of her hands and saying, "Little glutton, now you know that eating too much can be painful for your stomach, right? Does your stomach feel bloated and uncomfortable, especially in this particular spot?"

  After saying that, he made a gesture on his stomach, and Zheng Xiujing thought Han Ankang wanted to do something, so she suddenly grabbed her hand. Now hearing this, I realized I had misunderstood. Hurriedly standing up nervously, "Oppa, how did you know?"

  Han Ankang said helplessly, "It's not just me who knows, any doctor would know. With your body, it's strange that you didn't get bloated from eating so much earlier! Be honest and sit still, I'll give you a massage, after you burp a few times, this uncomfortable feeling will be gone. Remember, don't overeat like this again in the future."

  "Eating excessively and irregularly is bad for your health, especially you people who don't even eat on time when working. If this continues, you'll end up with stomach problems in the long run, just wait and see what happens to you all when you get older!"

  After finishing, Han Ankang pinched Zheng Xiujing's right hand and kept pressing and massaging her palm and back of the hand, making several girls very curious. What's the use of pressing hands after eating?

  Perhaps seeing the crowd of women's confusion, Han Ankang roughly explained: "Don't underestimate the role of hands on people. The several acupoints on the hands, if you all understand their functions, have a certain effect on health preservation. Just like this little eater, who is now eating a bit too much, press the Laogong point in the palm."

  "This acupoint is located in the middle of the palmar crease, where the tip of the middle finger touches when the fist is clenched. Massaging it can clear the heart and stomach, and eliminate facial acne, with a health-preserving effect. Other acupoints like Yuji (Fish Border), Shaofu, Hegu, and Shenmen are also located on the hand. Different acupoints correspond to different organs in the body, and regular massage of the fingers, palm, and back of the hand can strengthen the body, prevent disease, and promote health."

  A string of traditional Chinese medicine meridian names, the girls all felt a bit dizzy, but they remembered the Labour Palace acupoint that Han Ankang specifically pointed out. The girl who felt uncomfortable in her stomach followed Han Ankang's suggestion and massaged each other's palms for a while, and indeed felt that the bloated feeling in her body improved a lot.

  The girls who thought they had learned another trick finally realized that traditional Chinese medicine was so amazing, and in their eyes, a pair of hands that were usually used for beauty and maintenance actually had so many uses. Only Zheng Xiujing felt the careful massage movements of Han Ankang, and she also felt that she seemed to be getting more and more stuck on this foreign boy.

  Although she had known that the other party was nearly seven years older than her, it wasn't a problem for her. If not for the fact that she felt Han Ankang and Song Qian had some unclear relationship, she would have been controlling the sprout of feelings in her heart. Perhaps she really couldn't help but fall in love with this boy.

  As this control accompanied Han Ankang's doting, time and again indulging her willfulness, Zheng Xiujing found that her heart seemed to be sinking a little bit. Especially watching him once again exclusively care for her, the small happiness in her heart made her truly infatuated.

  But what she didn't know was that Song Qian, who had also fixed her gaze on Han Ankang, saw the sweet and happy look in Zheng Xiujing's eyes and couldn't help but let out a sigh in her heart. She felt that this little crystal, who seemed to be without a care in the world but actually had richer emotions than anyone else, would probably become the second girl to fall after her.

  But is she really prepared, has she made the preparations for a boy who doesn't even understand what love is? If she knew that Han Ankang would do such gentle and considerate things to her or to all girls, could Zheng Xiujing really accept it? After all, Zheng Xiujing was only 17 years old according to the Chinese age reckoning.

  Just as everyone was experiencing this slightly mysterious palm massage, Zheng Xiujing suddenly felt a breath-like sensation coming from her chest and abdomen, which made her involuntarily let out two extremely awkward burps.

  "Alright, now feel it, is your body feeling better? In the future if you eat too much again, you can also massage like I just did and it will alleviate some of the discomfort. However, the best way is to be moderate in eating, that's the best way to maintain good health. Do you understand?"

  Looking at the palm that had left her hand, Zheng Xiujing looked a bit lost and nodded shyly: "Mm, I'll be more careful next time."

  Seeing that the little guy didn't refute, Han Ankang also felt that the other party seemed to have really understood. He didn't say much more, knowing that these girls had exhausted themselves from dancing in the afternoon and would be recording a show tomorrow. Originally planning to let them rest well and return to his room to read books, Han Ankang was instead pulled back by Zheng Xiujing, who couldn't bear to part with him.

  The reason for finding an excuse was to live in such a high-end room, and they had to use everything in the room once. So, she thought of an excuse, which was to have Han Ankang accompany them. To experience the home theater like a movie theater in the presidential suite, what would it be like to watch a movie?

  Seeing several girls seemed to be very interested, Han Ankang knew he had no power to object and could only accompany the girls to move the battlefield to the home theater in the suite. Here, there were also spacious sofas and a huge widescreen screen. This means that with such a home theater, you can watch movies without leaving home.

  For the first time experiencing this home theater, Han Ankang also specially looked at the manual and learned how to search for this device that stores many domestic and foreign movies. When asking the girls what they liked to watch, Zheng Xiujing said she wanted to watch a horror movie.

  After finding the horror movie category, Han Ankang chose a horror series film "Death Came Fourth" on Zheng Xiujing's suggestion. As soon as it started playing on the screen, Han Ankang had just sat back down on the couch when Zheng Xiujing squeezed over. Without feeling any discomfort at all, she wrapped both arms around one of Han Ankang's arms.

  Seeing this, not only Song Qian but also the other three girls noticed that Zheng Xiujing's emotions were somewhat off. However, after the thrilling movie started, everyone's attention was drawn to the terrifying plot on the screen, and unknowingly, no one paid attention to the fact that Zheng Xiujing had already tightly wrapped her arms around Han Ankang's arm, in a rather awkward position on his chest.

  Occasional screams rose, and Han Ankang could clearly feel the softness transmitted from his arm. Compared to the girls who thought this bloody scene was terrifying, he had even dissected those corpses used for experiments in medical school before. He didn't think this movie was scary at all, let alone worthy of such screams.

  On the contrary, he felt that compared to the plot of the movie, the girls' intermittent screams were even more terrifying. Looking at these girls watching with bated breath, yet unable to bear giving up on watching, in Han Ankang's mind, this was completely a form of self-inflicted torture. Until over an hour into the movie, except for Zheng Xiujing who had hung onto Han Ankang, the other four girls were also huddled together. From this, it can be seen that the horror effect of this movie wasn't bad.

  Just as Han Kang thought it was over, Zheng Xiujing picked up the remote control and found a romantic movie from the series. It seemed that she hadn't seen this South Korean romance before, and she started playing it. She said it was to relieve herself, to ease the fear in her heart earlier. If she didn't alleviate this terrifying pressure, she would probably lie awake when she went back to bed.

  For this reason, Han Ankang didn't suspect anything either and could only continue to accompany the girls, appreciating this romance film that looked very aesthetically pleasing. However, as the plot progressed, the girls also realized something was off, and Han Ankang naturally felt more and more that something wasn't right. Because they all discovered that this romance film had developed into a romance 'action film' not suitable for minors by the end.

  Especially when the male and female protagonists in the movie started to get intimate, Han Ankang also felt a surge of heat. Before the girls could react, he grabbed the remote control and turned off the movie.

  Just as the girls were also watching with flushed faces, but wanting to continue watching, they found that Han Ankang had turned off the movie. Only then did they remember that there was a big man in this room too?

  Accompanying a big man, watching this romantic 'action movie'. If it gets out, I'll be done for! Before they could say anything, Han Ankang calmly said, "It's getting late, you all should get some rest." He also seemed a bit embarrassed as he beat a hasty retreat, leaving the girls even more humiliated and at a loss.

  As Han Ankang left without giving them a chance to persuade him to stay, the girls also knew that compared to Han Ankang's calmness, they had been a bit crazy for some time. Therefore, under Song Qian's shouting, the girls began to return to their rooms one after another to rest.

  It was just that for Song Qian, suddenly suggesting to sleep in the same room as Zheng Xiujing made all the girls feel a bit surprised. But they didn't think much of it and went back to their rooms to rest one after another. What would Song Qian want to talk to Zheng Xiujing about again?
