Peninsula: My pet is my idol

Kim Tae-yeon suddenly covered her mouth, but Tang Xin did not stop because of her voice.

He is a professional when it comes to acupuncture and massage.

Tang Xin took out the essential oil, poured it into her hand, and said softly, "Nuna, I'm stronger than your female assistant, so you might have to bear with it for a bit."

Kim Tae-yeon nodded, biting her fingers silently.

The next second, her smooth hands touched her lower abdomen again.

This time, Tang Xin used a bit too much force for Kim Tae-yeon, so much so that she whispered, "Apa..."

"Just bear with it, it'll feel much better soon... oops... it'll be effective."

Tang Xin internally screamed: What a terrible conversation!

……

Half an hour later.

Tang Xin, who had already removed the acupuncture needles, knelt down next to Kim Tae-yeon and gently rubbed her lower abdomen with her palms.

The lower abdomen area, in particular, needs special attention.

Kim Tae-yeon's hand naturally touched Tang Xin's thigh.

Looking at the boy who kept giving her a massage, Kim Tae-yeon began to doubt herself.

Have I been single for too long? Why does this little brother seem more and more handsome to me?

Actually, Kim Tae-yeon didn't intend to do anything to Tang Xin; she just listened to Im Yoon-ah's advice and decided to tease the boy.

Based on her personality, she doesn't seem like the type of person who would do something like this.

But don't overlook a key factor: age.

She was born in 1989 and will turn 33 this year. But she's Korean, and she considers herself to be 35 by Korean reckoning!

At thirty-five, you're already heading towards forty!

Data shows that women aged 30-35 are the most susceptible to mental illness.

Why? Because from the age of 30 onwards, in the common sense, this is considered "middle-aged woman," and society begins to put pressure on women in this age group.

Women in their early twenties, in the prime of their lives, are beginning to aggressively seize social resources from women over thirty.

Just like the two or three years around the age of thirty are the peak period for athletes' combination of skills and physique, once the peak period is over, their niche will inevitably be taken over by athletes in the new peak period.

Kim Tae-yeon's peers already have children in middle school, and the boys are already starting to go bald.

How could she not be anxious?

She wasn't thinking about marriage or having children, but societal pressure doesn't stop approaching just because you have achievements and wealth.

Looking back, wow? Why aren't there any Gen Z staff members in my circle?

I don't think I know many people born in the 00s. I don't know any boys born in the 00s at all! Even if I did know some, we wouldn't exchange more than a few words!

Come to think of it, Tang Xin is actually the only Gen Z guy I can have a normal conversation with now that I'm this age...

Kim Tae-yeon isn't the type to get angry if someone doesn't praise her.

But this time she was acting very strangely, wanting Tang Xin to praise her.

Perhaps she herself did not realize that it was age anxiety that was forcing her to seek self-affirmation from Tang Xin, a boy born in the 00s.

She needed this confirmation to alleviate her anxiety.

It's the same principle as how middle-aged, greasy men like to find a sense of accomplishment in female college students.

While giving Kim Tae-yeon a foot massage, Kim Tae-yeon asked, "Tang Xin, do you have a girl you like?"

Tang Xin paused, then nodded: "There is one girl I kind of like..."

"Does she know you're in this line of work?"

"I don't know, I didn't dare to say."

"Why? Do you think there's something shameful about doing this kind of work?"

"I'm just worried... that girl might get jealous." Tang Xin sighed slightly. "I don't know how to bring it up."

"Do you plan to change careers in the future?"

Tang Xin shook her head: "No, I'm studying orthodox Chinese medicine and health preservation, not some crooked or heretical methods."

"What if...what if that girl finds out and doesn't accept me?"

"There's nothing I can do about it. I can't possibly throw away my future for a girl, can I?" Tang Xin's gaze was fixed on her feet, and he said without looking up, "My future is really important to me. I can't afford to make a wrong move."

Perhaps noticing Kim Tae-yeon's gaze, Tang Xin looked up and said:

"Nuna, do you want to hear something from the bottom of my heart?"

"What?"

"What I really want to say is that the nice things I said to you and Yoona weren't entirely false. When it comes to serving you and Yoona, you two are much easier to talk to than some other clients..."

"Will other clients... give you a hard time?"

"It wouldn't be considered deliberately difficult," Tang Xin chuckled. "It's just that I feel like I've really tarnished Seoul National University's reputation. I'm nominally a student at Seoul National University, and that status makes some wealthy women feel very superior."

"I didn't make things too difficult for you, did I?"

"It's nothing more than sarcastic and sarcastic remarks. What really bothers me is that some rich women, perhaps because they haven't had sex in a long time, start pulling down my pants while I'm being massaged."

"Haha, is that really true?" Kim Tae-yeon laughed.

"Yes, quite a few." Tang Xin started massaging her legs: "That's why I usually hope there's a third person present, so that a man and a woman aren't alone together in a room."

"Then why can Yoona and I?"

Tang Xin initially wanted to say "because you two are public figures," but then she thought that would be too inappropriate.

So he changed his tune: "Because beautiful women have special privileges."

-----------------

After the massage, Kim Tae-yeon stayed at Tang Shin's house and chatted for a while longer.

Kim Tae-yeon asked him if he wanted to continue the treatment.

Tang Xin's choice...

"A, earn as much as you can: 'If we can have more treatments, that would be even better.' (Further plot developments in Kim Tae-yeon's storyline)"

"B, adhering to medical ethics, speaks the truth: 'Actually, the current treatment course is sufficient; a few more single acupuncture and massage sessions will suffice later.'; (This quickly introduces second- and third-generation female characters from the book's online community, temporarily putting Kim Tae-yeon's storyline on hold)"

-----------------

(Chapter 27, A15, B10, C30)

While Tang Xin was at Kim Tae-yeon's house, his butcher dog started barking wildly.

The kitten Yuan and the pig Ying peeked out from behind the door of the pet room, quietly observing the Fengshan dog in the cage.

"Yuan Ying, this dog looks so pitiful..."

Little Pig Ying tapped the cat's head with her pig hoof: "What's so pitiful about it? This dog looks like it has rabies!"

It's no wonder the two little ones are scared now; this two-month-old Toyoyama dog seems a bit "crazy."

After Tang Xin left, the dog started twitching inexplicably.

Suddenly it sprang up and started tearing at the air, then a moment later it collapsed in the cage as if it had been electrocuted, convulsing wildly.

Very strange.

If it wanted freedom, it should have torn apart the cage, but it didn't bite it at all.

Instead, it was a continuous cycle of convulsions and roars.

Little Pig Ying swore that this was the time she most wanted Tang Xin to come home quickly.

She was afraid that if she waited any longer, the mad dog would break out of its cage and bite her to death.

"Tang Xin, why aren't you back yet... Please don't stay overnight at Kim Tae-yeon's house..."
