Different professions view issues from different angles and with different attitudes.
Lin Xixin was a radio host, so naturally, she had insight and wouldn't lack courage.
But having a young man help with a lactation massage was somewhat uncomfortable for her.
As a doctor, Tan Shengmei didn't feel there was anything improper about Luo Yang assisting Lin Xixin with lactation.
Skin contact was only a temporary process, with the goal, of course, being to cure the illness.
Seeing Lin Xixin's face flush, Tan Shengmei laughed and said, "Xi Yangyang, you were crying out in pain, so don't delay. There are no outsiders here, so rest assured."
With a light blush on her face, Lin Xixin smiled, showing her teeth, "Okay then, Doctor Luo, let me tell you first. You can't go spreading today's business around, okay?"
Seeing that Luo Yang was just a young boy, she feared he might not keep things under wraps; if he bragged endlessly outside and her family heard, it would be very awkward for her.
Luo Yang, of course, understood her concerns and said, "Sister Lin, please rest assured, I'm not a gossip."
Hearing this, both Lin Xixin and Tan Shengmei laughed.
Watching them smile flirtatiously, Luo Yang couldn't help but take another glance over their graceful bodies, feeling the allure of the older sisters was quite strong.
Getting slightly lost in thought, he even shivered with excitement.
Beautiful Yang Yang, Xi Yangyang, hehe...
So round and so big...
Hehe...
Without realizing it, Luo Yang let out a chuckling sound.
Both of the older sisters seemed to understand something from the sly smile on Luo Yang's lips, their pretty faces turning pink, becoming even more attractive.
"Niu Zai!" Tan Shengmei suddenly called out.
"Huh?"
Luo Yang came back to his senses, startled.
Seeing Luo Yang's bewildered and slightly shocked expression, both Tan Shengmei and Lin Xixin burst into laughter.
Their laughter, compared to that of An Yuying and Tang Guihua, lacked three parts of a young girl's shyness and added seven parts of a mature woman's boldness, without losing a sexy flavor.
Seeing them laugh so vibrantly, he glanced over their graceful bodies again, admiring the beautiful curves of youth they displayed as they laughed.
Luo Yang couldn't help but shiver with excitement several times.
At that moment, his body temperature rose, feeling warm all over.
His face also grew hotter; they laughed, so he could only join in with a sheepish laugh.
"Niu Zai, one can tell you're an honest person," Tan Shengmei praised.
Hearing himself described as an "honest person," Luo Yang felt somewhat embarrassed.
In his heart, he chuckled and hurriedly took a few more glances at their mature yet youthful bodies.
Possibly from laughing too hard, Lin Xixin suddenly let out a wince, slightly knitting her brows and lightly supporting her right breast, rubbing it.
At that moment, Luo Yang's desire to help welled up, wishing he could sit next to her and support Lin Xixin's pendulous breasts with both hands.
What he thought, he nearly said.
Caught up in the moment, he blurted out, "Sister Lin, do you need..."
Once the words escaped, he realized they were too forthright and stopped himself.
"Of course," Lin Xixin nodded.
As she spoke, she glanced at Tan Shengmei.
Then with a smile, she added, "Beautiful Yang Yang, don't you still need to go to the office?"
Tan Shengmei paused, then quickly grasped the hidden meaning in Lin Xixin's words.
Having Luo Yang perform the lactation massage would indeed be awkward for Tan Shengmei to witness.
The fewer people present the better.
Some things are better with more people, like basketball and football matches.
But lactation is not something that should be watched by too many spectators.
"Oh, right, right. I still have some things to take care of in the office. You two chat," Tan Shengmei very cooperatively said.
But the meaningful smile playing on her lips betrayed her insincerity.
Tan Shengmei changed her shoes and stepped out, casually closing the door behind her.
"Niu Zai, make sure to fill out that form for me today, or tomorrow at the latest," Tan Shengmei said from outside.
"Understood, Sister Tan," Luo Yang replied.
Then he heard her footsteps receding, followed shortly by the sound of her descending the stairs.
A door separated the clamor.
Although the distant hum of cars and even people talking could be heard outside, along with other jumbled noises, sitting inside felt exceptionally quiet.
The air was filled with warmth and a slight, unfamiliar tension.
The dormitory's decor was simple, with white walls and concrete floors—the only thing worthy of praise was its cleanliness.
The lights inside were on, casting a brighter glow than the daylight filtering in through the balcony.
In the weather of September, if one just sat still, it wasn't too hot inside.
After all, it was early autumn.
But early autumn in the South is essentially an extension of the peak summer, often referred to as the "autumn tiger."
Unlike the real summer, during early autumn, one could usually feel cool in the shade or indoors. During the summer heat, even if you hid and soaked in a water vat, you'd still sweat buckets.
In daily life, Luo Yang had interacted with many people and developed a bit of courage.
However, being alone with an older sister in the small living room, having just met her, was still a first for him.
Though they had gotten along well just a moment ago, that was largely due to Tan Shengmei's presence.
Now that Tan Shengmei had left, although the atmosphere remained pleasant, a faint awkwardness inevitably welled up.
Both parties restrained their smiles, but the corners of their mouths still bore traces of shy grins, a mutual gesture to maintain the friendly mood.
Luo Yang sweated slightly, thinking about how to break this silent tension.
In truth, both knew what they should normally be doing.
It was just that the task held a certain embarrassment, and if Lin Xixin didn't bring it up first, it would be even more inappropriate for Luo Yang to suggest it.
If he were to help her examine other, less sensitive parts of her body, he could handle it quite casually.
But now, he was to help her with her chest, and Luo Yang couldn't muster the courage.
He would have to play it by ear.
From the moment Tan Shengmei's footsteps faded away, the room fell under a spell of silence, only broken by sounds from outside infiltrating the vacuous space.
This small apartment unit had no air conditioning, and Luo Yang guessed Tan Shengmei had not been living there long, as the celebrity portraits on the wall all looked new.
On the short-legged wooden table in the small living room, a fortune-bringing fan whirred, blowing what could be considered cool air.
Yet, beads of sweat still formed on Luo Yang's forehead.
Taking a deep breath, Luo Yang glanced at Lin Xixin from the corner of his eye, trying to ascertain her current expression.
By coincidence, Lin Xixin looked over at the same time, and their eyes met in a spark of connection that sent a jolt through Luo Yang's heart.
Immediately after, his spirits soared even more.
He couldn't put his finger on the reason, but he felt delightfully pleased.
It was a feeling that could only be understood, not articulated.
As their gazes locked, they each offered a smiling nod, a mutual acknowledgement of each other's presence.
Seeing Lin Xixin's friendly eyes, her charming face brimming with laughter, Luo Yang grew bolder.
In the past, he knew just what to say to make a strange girl happy.
Now, in the company of this beautiful older sister, Luo Yang had to draw on his past experience and sincerely complimented, "Sister Lin, you are so beautiful."
Indeed, Lin Xixin took great pleasure in the compliment; her cheeks blossomed with joy, her eyes steeped in mirth as they curved upward.
She gently pursed her red lips and cast a sultry, profound glance at Luo Yang.
Luo Yang finally understood that a glance could indeed be electrifying.
The delightful, gentle electricity could touch one's heart, causing a light tremor.
The sensation was cozy yet filled with a sense of distant thoughts.
"Beautiful Yang Yang said you were honest, but you're as sly as any other handsome guy," Lin Xixin said with a smile.
