The Next Day, in the Afternoon
At Carlin's home, Lyra personally cooked a bowl of beef noodles for Veil.
She was someone who always kept her word.
If she said she'd cook for Veil—
Then she'd make sure it happened.
No matter the time, no matter the place,
Maybe she'd be late, but she would never forget.
Now that he was well-fed and refreshed, it was time to get down to business.
It took nearly an hour, but Veil once again performed a full acupuncture and massage session for Carlin.
Afterward, she was drenched in sweat.
Her long dress clung to her skin, slightly translucent, outlining her graceful figure.
Lying on her stomach, she looked back at Veil with a grateful expression.
"Big Brother Veil, you're amazing. Those needles looked so thick—honestly, I was really scared at first. But it was just like you said, it only hurt a little at the beginning. Once I got used to it, it actually felt kind of... good."
