What kind of master of traditional Chinese medicine? I'm just a male technician.

Chapter 23 Wang Tao's Birthday

Half an hour later, the test was over.

Looking at the test results, Xia Bingyu and Luo Qian felt both excited and desperate.

Li Yi's physical abilities are simply freakish; with just a little training, he could become a world-class athlete.

But as a result, no sport held any appeal for him.

Xia Bingyu was still somewhat unwilling to give up and asked again, "Xiao Li, are you really unwilling to play volleyball with me?"

Li Yi glanced at her and shook his head helplessly again.

Playing volleyball is fine, but being an athlete is out of the question.

"Sister Xia, please stop trying to persuade me. I really don't want to be a world champion."

"..." Upon hearing this, Luo Qian swallowed back the words he was about to say and turned to ask, "How exactly did you train to this level?"

Upon hearing this question, Xia Bingyu perked up.

Unfortunately, I can't talk to others about things that are happening within the system.

Li Yi could only casually say, "Actually, I haven't practiced much. It's just that there's a guiding technique in traditional Chinese medicine that requires practicing some simple health-preserving exercises to improve one's internal strength."

I only practiced Baduanjin (Eight Pieces of Brocade) occasionally, and that's how I ended up like this.

Traditional Chinese medicine, internal martial arts?

Xia Bingyu and Luo Qian reacted as if they had heard something completely unbelievable.

However, the two of them had witnessed Li Yi's testing process firsthand, so there was no way to fake it.

Luo Qian suddenly spoke up: "Damn it! Starting tomorrow, I'll make everyone practice the Eight Pieces of Brocade, and try to get them all to develop internal strength."

"Absolutely not!"

Li Yi quickly intervened, "Sister Luo, internal strength training in Traditional Chinese Medicine isn't something you can just learn casually. Otherwise, wouldn't all the world champions become TCM practitioners? Where would the athletes be then?"

Luo Qian was taken aback. "Yeah! You must have some kind of trick up your sleeve, kid?"

There's no trick to it, but there is a system.

"Ahem, Sister Luo, internal strength probably depends more on talent. I think you should focus on teaching boxing. You can practice the Eight Pieces of Brocade appropriately, but you can't get too obsessed with it."

"..." Upon hearing this, Luo Qian completely abandoned his last thought.

......

People say to be wary of young married women, but Li Yi's young heart is now filled with thoughts of young married women.

After undergoing a comprehensive physical fitness test at the Thunder Fighting Gym a few days ago, he finally realized the power of traditional Chinese internal energy cultivation.

Therefore, Li Yi now only wants to gain more experience points and max out all his skills as soon as possible.

Unfortunately, so far, apart from his three long-time clients, Wang Tao, Bai Ruxue, and Xia Bingyu, no other young women have sought him out for sex.

It's impossible for Wang Tao and the other two to get massages every day.

This results in a very slow rate of gaining experience points.

Furthermore, as skill levels increase, the experience points required for each level up also increase.

From then on, the prospect of upgrading the skill again seemed increasingly distant.

10:00 AM.

Li Yi was lost in thought in the beauty salon when a ripe peach suddenly ran over.

"Oh, Sister Wang, you're here. Please sit down, I'll give you a massage."

"Alright, no massage today. Come with me to my place now."

Li Yi was taken aback. "Sister Wang, what would I do at your place?"

"Today is my mother's birthday. A few old women will be coming over for lunch. Since you're free anyway, why don't you go over and help me out?"

"An old woman? Is it Sister Bai and Sister Xia coming?"

When Wang Tao saw Li Yi suddenly become more energetic, she was immediately puzzled. "You've been talking about Shao Bai and Lao Xia every day, but now that you hear they're coming, your eyes are shining again."

I said, "You're not actually planning to hit on either of them, are you?"

"Cough cough... Sister Wang, what nonsense are you talking about? I treat Sister Bai and Sister Xia the same way I treat you, how could I have such wild thoughts?"

"Hmph! That's more like it."

Wang Tao curled her lip. "It's not just Shao Bai and Lao Xia, but also that best friend I told you about last time is coming. However, she's not very friendly towards men, so you'd better be careful."

There are even new young married women!

Upon hearing this, Li Yi perked up even more. "Then what are we waiting for, Sister Wang? Let's go quickly!"

"..."

Why is this kid even more enthusiastic than me?

Wang Tao felt like something was off.

Just as Li Yi stepped out of the beauty salon, he suddenly slapped his forehead. "Oh dear, Sister Wang, you said you were having a birthday party, right? I haven't even prepared a gift yet."

"Never mind the gifts, just help me with some chores later."

In a way, Wang Tao could be considered his benefactor.

It's really inappropriate to not even offer a birthday greeting to someone on their birthday.

However, if you just buy something casually, that would be too perfunctory; it would be better not to buy anything at all.

Li Yi thought for a moment, and finally said, "Sister Wang, I will definitely pick out the most meaningful gift for your birthday next year."

"Okay, I'll wait until next year."

Wang Tao usually lives in the apartment that Li Yi rents.

However, the other party lives on the top floor.

When she arrived, Li Yi discovered that she was the only person living on the entire top floor.

Moreover, the room's decor is exceptionally exquisite.

"Tsk tsk, Sister Wang, we live in the same building, but the conditions are so different."

After the door opened, Li Yi looked at the decorations inside and was immediately filled with envy.

Wang Tao rolled her eyes. "Nonsense! My apartment cost over a million yuan just to renovate, while your rent is only a few hundred yuan a month. How can you compare?"

"..." Li Yi was immediately rendered speechless.

Just then, a small tabby cat, as if hearing the door open, suddenly darted out of the house.

"Meow~"

"Oh? Sister Wang, you like keeping cats?"

"I don't really have a preference or dislike for anyone. It's just that I've been alone for a long time, so I just find someone to keep me company."

As Wang Tao spoke, she bent down and took out a new pair of slippers from the shoe cabinet.

The other person was wearing light blue leggings today.

As he bent over, a type of fruit was immediately revealed.

Wow! What a huge peach!

Li Yi was following behind Wang Tao, so he saw everything clearly at once.

These peaches look so tempting, they must be in high demand!

But why is she still single after all these years?

After Wang Tao changed her shoes, she noticed Li Yi standing there motionless. "What are you staring at me for? Hurry up and change your shoes!"

"what?"

Li Yi snapped out of his daze, afraid that Wang Tao would notice Gangzi staring at Taozi, and quickly turned his head away. "...Sister Wang, your kitten is so cute, can I pet it?"

"Go ahead and touch me if you want, but come over and help me cook afterwards."

"oh."

Li Yi reluctantly withdrew his gaze, then changed into slippers, reached out to pet the tabby cat, and then followed it into the kitchen.

When he entered the kitchen, he found that Wang Tao had already started cooking.

Moreover, judging from her appearance, she seemed quite skilled at it.

My landlord is not only good-looking, but also rich.

Now he can cook a really good meal.

She's equally at home in the living room and the kitchen—truly an exceptional woman!
