90: Coach, I want to work out - 2

Countless thoughts flashed through Lin Wanxing's mind in an instant. Looking at Jiang Ye's hand suspended in mid-air, out of basic courtesy, she still reached out and gave it a light shake:

"Mr. Jiang, thank you very much for your trust. However, I'm a specialized coach in yoga, and I only take female students for fitness classes. For male students... it really isn't very convenient. But I can recommend a few experienced male coaches for you. They're all very professional, and I can give you a few trial classes to experience first. Our GAMA coaching team is very responsible."

She originally intended to politely decline, hoping he'd back off, while also expressing her gratitude.

Unexpectedly, the phrase "give you trial classes" reached Jiang Ye's ears, instantly making his eyes light up even more!

Look!

Opening her mouth and offering "free classes"!

This Girl is indeed a promising talent who understands "giving"! With some nurturing, she'd definitely be a high-quality return-on-investment target!

The sincerity on Jiang Ye's face grew even thicker. He vigorously shook Lin Wanxing's hand, which she hadn't yet withdrawn, and said with a firm tone:

"Coach Lin! I don't trust anyone else; I've set my sights on you! I think you're especially professional and have a great presence! Don't worry, I have absolutely no ulterior motives in signing up for personal training. I genuinely want to work out properly and improve my physical fitness! I swear!"

"..."

Lin Wanxing instinctively looked at Ye Cheng again, her eyes carrying a plea and a "aren't you going to do something?" meaning.

"Hmm, I believe him. This is already the sixth oath he's sworn today. Even if heaven strikes with five thunderbolts, it'd only hit five times. Now, even the heavens can't do anything about him."

Ye Cheng nodded expressionlessly: "And choosing a yoga coach to guide fitness training—that goal sounds very pure and very healthy. It's just... Coach Lin, please put in extra effort when helping him with his diet plan. I'm worried that if he trains with you, his nutrition won't keep up, and he'll get thinner the more he works out."

Lin Wanxing: "..."

She looked at Jiang Ye, who wore an expression of "righteousness and integrity," then at Ye Cheng beside him, who was clearly speaking sarcastically yet putting on an "I'm very supportive" act. She felt her temples throbbing.

She forcefully pulled her hand out from Jiang Ye's grip, her tone carrying a hint of helplessness:

"Mr. Jiang, it really isn't convenient... How about this: to thank you for your help today, I'll treat you both to dinner later? I still have half an hour of class left. Could you wait for me a bit? I..."

Lin Wanxing's intention was to express gratitude by treating them to a meal, while also shifting away from this headache-inducing topic.

Unexpectedly!

As soon as the words "treat you to dinner" left her mouth, it was as if two small flames instantly ignited in Jiang Ye's eyes, shining even brighter than when he heard "free classes."

"Dinner? No need, no need! That's too extravagant!"

Jiang Ye repeatedly waved his hands, his tone enthusiastic: "How about this, Coach, you go ahead with your work! I'll go in myself and find your membership consultant to buy classes. If you have one you're close with, you can give me their WeChat too! Don't worry, I'll definitely pay the listed price, absolutely no haggling. I won't affect your performance or income!"

Lin Wanxing looked at his "I'm very sincere and I want to spend money right now" demeanor and was utterly speechless.

She could see it now: if Zhang Wenhai's shamelessness could score 80 points, then the person before her was at least 3600 points.

This man simply couldn't take no for an answer—he'd climb to the sky given an inch!

Lin Wanxing took a deep breath, trying to keep her tone calm:

"Mr. Jiang, I'm a specialized coach. My prices and packages are different from those of general fitness coaches... And it's not about income; it's mainly about my personal preferences and class arrangements. Honestly, if I were willing to take male students, with my qualifications and member reviews, I'd have been promoted to senior coach long ago..."

She paused, deciding to pull out her trump card—a condition the other party absolutely couldn't accept—to make him back off:

"Alright, Mr. Jiang, you've really helped me twice, and I'm very grateful. If you truly insist on me training you... it's not completely impossible, but there's one condition that must be met."

"What condition? Coach Lin, just say it!" Jiang Ye put on a "I'd go through fire and water without hesitation" attitude.

Lin Wanxing held up one finger: "If you can apply for a Diamond Prepaid Card here and pay according to the Celebrity Personal Training Course rates, then... I can make an exception for you."

She deliberately paused, slowly announcing the price:

"The Diamond Prepaid Card requires a minimum deposit of 200,000. The celebrity coach's course rate is 1,200 per session. With the Diamond Card, you get a 40% discount, bringing it down to 720 per session."

Beside them, Ye Cheng blinked, inexplicably feeling as if she were playing a pay-to-win game—top up to a certain amount to unlock specific characters and exclusive storylines.

But... she secretly curled her lip.

This sister still had a bit of a "small mindset"—her asking price was too conservative, far below a certain someone's psychological expectations and payment ability.

Ye Cheng thought Jiang Ye would wave his hand without blinking and directly say "apply for the card!" But unexpectedly, after hearing the price, he actually clicked his tongue, stroking his chin, his face showing clear hesitation and stinginess.

"A minimum deposit of 200,000? And it's still 720 per session after the discount?"

Jiang Ye smacked his lips and shook his head: "That's way too expensive! Forget it, forget it. Maybe in a few days, after I save up some money."

After saying that, he very decisively tugged at Ye Cheng's sleeve, turned, and left without the slightest hesitation.

Ye Cheng stumbled from the pull, looked back at Lin Wanxing standing there stunned, her mind full of question marks.

Had this guy changed his nature?

He was actually considering cost-effectiveness now?

This wasn't scientific!

Lin Wanxing watched the two quickly departing figures, shook her head, and chuckled wryly.

Scared off just like that? Not even any bargaining?

Weren't you just swearing up and down that it had to be me?

Seems like it was all talk. When it came time to actually spend money, he chickened out.

But that's fine—saves trouble.

She composed herself, turned, pushed open the gym door, and put a faint smile back on her face as she walked toward the group of students still waiting for her to finish the last half-hour of yoga class.

Only, the irritation brought by Zhang Wenhai seemed to have been diluted by Jiang Ye's unexpected behavior. Instead, she felt... a bit inexplicably amused.
