Chapter 9

I haven't even exerted myself yet. You have too much fat on your stomach. Coach Chen said helplessly

Feng Xi relaxed her clenched fist and said lightly, "I am on a diet!" After saying this, she walked to the side and entered the water, continuing to complete her five laps of swimming

Coach Chen sighed and began to massage her legs. As soon as he pinched, Feng Xi laughed out loud like a cat with its tail stepped on: "No, I'm ticklish!"

Feng Xi lay with her eyes closed, her hands resting on her stomach, moaning: "I ran on the treadmill for 40 minutes, and my legs are broken"

"Just a few more times will be fine," Meng Shi said comfortingly, reaching out to help her up

How much does it cost? she asked naturally

Strengthening exercise, is it? She will walk home after work starting tomorrow! In the evening, she will run a few laps around the community! She will not have dinner! She does not believe that without going to the gym and without taking weight loss pills, she cannot lose weight

Feng Xi blinked, what is going on

Feng Xi was somewhat surprised. Meng Shi's politeness was quite rare. His calm expression of apology and graceful demeanor indicated that he was a cultured man. She smiled as she took off her swimming goggles and said, "It's alright, it's common for people to misunderstand. Once, while taking the bus, someone even offered me their seat."

The stark contrast stirred a surge of resentment within her. Feng Xi made a determined effort to swim forward, waving her arms vigorously. If only time could turn back, if only she were still young and slender, if only she could find someone who loved her. Yet, deep down, Feng Xi knew that there were no ifs; everything had to start from scratch. She worked hard to lose weight and regain her confidence and beauty, struggled amidst the intrigues of work, and toiled to earn money to secure her future

As I was leaving the gym, Meng Shi approached and said apologetically, "I’m sorry, I was hoping for a win-win situation and thought you would agree"

Feng Xijing quietly looked at him, the annual membership card costs 3,800 yuan each, she can enjoy it for free for life, with a personal trainer and scientific guidance for fitness and weight loss. Many people would not refuse this, would they

Meng Shixiao approached with a cheerful demeanor, squatted down, and asked Feng Xi: "How do you feel?"

Meng Shi felt it was necessary to apologize to Feng Xi. He quietly waited for Feng Xi to finish swimming and come ashore, then picked up a towel and walked over. "I was too reckless just now and interrupted your workout."

She returned the card to Coach Chen, and heard him say again: "Our annual card is 3,800 each"

As she swam, she recalled her meeting with Fu Mingyi. He had asked her to negotiate the price. There was nothing unfair about it. It was just that when his words suddenly echoed in her mind, she swam in a daze, thinking about how he said he had never changed.

Meng Shishuo mentioned the name of a gym and smiled, saying: "I will call Coach Chen. You should go take a look before making a decision"

"Coach Chen, please assist Miss Feng with the formalities," Meng Shi said with a smile as he turned his head.

He propped his hands on the edge of the pool, looking up at her with a frown: "Where is your husband? It is highly irresponsible to let a pregnant woman swim alone like this! You cannot engage in strenuous activities!"

Coach Chen explained: "We want to create a promotion ... ... "

Feng Xi was taken aback. If she completed the procedures and paid the money, it would be a waste if she did not show up. She looked at Meng Shi, momentarily at a loss for words, and watched as Coach Chen walked out. In front of Meng Shi, she found it hard to say that she would no longer pursue this scientific weight loss program.

No payment is required; this is a lifetime free card for you

Feng Xiju stood high above, already so enraged that he clenched his fists. His mind was consumed by a single question: why did his stomach look like he was four months pregnant when he was swimming on his back?

"Thirty-eight thousand is not acceptable either." Feng Xi glanced at Meng Shi, who looked somewhat embarrassed. She said nothing and turned to tidy up her things and change her clothes

She had already given up in her heart. Upon hearing Meng Shiweng, she felt embarrassed to speak frankly and only wanted to brush it off, resolutely deciding not to come tomorrow. Fortunately, she had not yet paid the fee; otherwise, it would have truly been a pity.

Feng Xiyi was taken aback

When he lifted his head, he saw Feng Xi still swimming, and he couldn't help but admire her a bit. Meng Shi had encountered many girls, but few were truly willing to go to such lengths for weight loss. Especially after he mistakenly thought her belly was that of a pregnant woman, she was still able to nonchalantly complete her prescribed routine for the day.

His hair was slicked back, making his features exceptionally distinct. His thick eyebrows were slightly furrowed, and his eyes were filled with concern and a hint of reproach

On the afternoon of the second day, Feng Xi went to the gym. Coach Chen was very enthusiastic towards her, walking around Feng Xi a few times, asking about her daily diet and lifestyle, and suggesting that she come to the gym once a day. Just as Feng Xi was about to leave, Coach Chen called out to her: "Do you have time today? I have a client who can't make it right now, so I'm free."

She recalled this sentence over and over again, reminiscing about that face, clear and bright under the sunlight. Even though she no longer believed, even though she could not return to the past, she still felt an overwhelming sweetness

Meng Shi blurted out: "However, it is hard to find someone with such a strong desire and willpower for weight loss as you. We do not want to engage in false advertising with the books."

It is indeed hard to find someone with a physique as hefty as mine who is likely to succeed in losing weight, isn't it?" Feng Xi said with a hint of sarcasm. She felt a mix of sadness and indignation in her heart. Feeling dejected, she hailed a taxi, said nothing, and got in the car to leave.

Her arm was suddenly tightened as someone grabbed her arm, startling Feng Xi from her solitary contemplation. She was taken aback, and before she could wipe the splashes from her face or remove her goggles, she heard the other person's anxious voice: "You could have a miscarriage like this! You cannot swim like this at four months pregnant!"

Seeing his gaze, Feng Xi felt a pang in her heart once again, and she was somewhat moved. Even such concern touched her. After all, he meant well

After a short while, Coach Chen brought over a card and handed it to Feng Xi

Feng Xi changed into her swimsuit and entered the heated swimming pool at the community clubhouse. In the evening, there were few people; only one person was swimming freestyle in the pool. The thirty-meter long pool was where she planned to swim five laps back and forth

Thank you! He was not so enthusiastic as to insist that Feng Xi go, which made Feng Xi very grateful. Too much enthusiasm would be overwhelming for her. Refusing others is also an art, and this art is something Feng Xi has not yet mastered with ease. She either rejects awkwardly or submits helplessly.

Feng Xi opened his eyes, quickly sat up and said: "It's okay"

Feng Xi sat on the floor with her legs straightened. Coach Chen was pressing down hard on her back, and Feng Xi grimaced and shouted, "My waist is breaking! It's going to break!"

"Feng Xi, Building Four." Feng Xi extended his hand

She regretted it deeply. Coach Chen was exceptionally strict, immediately making her run on the treadmill for forty minutes. Feng Xi had never run like this before and wanted to stop after just five minutes. In the end, Coach Chen simply said, "If you keep running, the fat in your legs will burn off. You will lose at least ten pounds in a month." Feng Xi gritted her teeth and persevered. Who would have thought that bending over would make her fully experience the sensation of sitting on a torture chair.

Feng Xi's desire to lose weight burns fiercely

Meng Shi wiped the water off his face, feeling both embarrassed and amused, struggling to hold back laughter. He dug his fingers into the edge of the sink, burying his face in his arms and stifling laughter for quite a while.

Just as she took more than two years to finally decide to sever her marriage with Tian Dawei, she is a very passive person, living in a state of complacency, with her standards set extremely low. If it were not for such a significant stimulus, she probably would not have made such a resolute decision to lose weight

The person had pulled her close to the edge of the pool, skillfully and carefully lifting her up.

Feng Xi could only say thank you, as she had never felt her legs so sore after swimming before. She expressed her personal opinion that the scientific approach to weight loss mentioned by Meng Shi was quite easy to maintain

Feng Xi had studied business etiquette, and there were indeed nuances to handshakes. Upon shaking hands with Meng Shi, she immediately recognized that he was also knowledgeable in this regard. His hand grasped her palm, but only briefly before releasing it. Unlike some men, who either grip like an eagle seizing its prey, shake vigorously, or pinch with just a few fingers

I personally do not wish to appear in any promotional materials, so please find someone else. Some say that losing weight is a lifelong endeavor for women. You will find a suitable partner for collaboration

In the water, she feels very happy; just the thought that with every meter she swims, the fat in her body is passionately burning, gives her an endless supply of energy

The Feng Xi of that time, and the her of now

When Meng Shi arrived at the gym, he heard a series of loud shouts, and he leaned against the door, laughing so hard that he almost lost his breath

Her most beautiful first love, her most beautiful youth, all returned to her mind with this sentence

At this moment, Coach Chen saw Meng Shi, spread his hands and smiled, saying: "She needs to increase the intensity of her training"

At this moment, a sense of inexplicable panic and emptiness surged in her heart. Feng Xi turned over and lay on the water's surface, performing a backstroke. Time and again, she raised her arms to part the waves, and with each advance, she felt as though she was leaving that terrifying sensation behind. Unconsciously, she completed her first round trip and began the next one.

Feng Xi then decided to stay behind

Swimming is very beneficial for sculpting the body. However, swimming too vigorously can cause your arm muscles and neck muscles to become wider and thicker. Meng Shi looked up and down at Feng Xi's figure, and her smile made him feel obliged to help her. "I know a very good coach; scientific weight loss will be much easier. Within six months, you will definitely succeed in losing weight. My name is Meng Shi, and I live in Building 3"

Can you introduce the coach you mentioned? Thank you very much. Feng Xi quickly made a decision upon hearing that scientific weight loss could be much easier. She could have gone to a body slimming beauty salon, but she heard that it merely involved acupressure to suppress appetite, acupuncture, or massage to accelerate fat burning, all of which would eventually rebound. She did not want to waste her money on that. While eating less, she also insisted on swimming every day, as she did not want to weaken her body from hunger.

Coach Chen released his hand, and Feng Xi leaned back and rolled her eyes.

"I’m sorry, I refuse to attend any commercial promotional events, including before-and-after photos related to weight loss." Feng Xi suddenly realized. A tragic image of a fat woman’s before-and-after photos flashed through her mind. If acquaintances were to see it, would she still be able to live?
