98: Chapter 98 Running can be made into something amazing?

Zhao Xiaoshuai's endurance was getting better and better. Once the task was completely finished, if he could also obtain a 10-point bonus, then running a half-marathon shouldn't be a problem for him.

The benefits of high endurance were multifaceted, with the most direct one being the extension of combat time.

Thinking about how he would continue this dull and boring exercise in the future without the motivation of the tasks, Zhao Xiaoshuai thought for a moment and had the answer.

"Wenwen, come here."

The little girlfriend looked at him with puzzled eyes, letting her boyfriend manipulate her, and finally stood at the control panel with her back against the treadmill.

The view of the peach was upgraded to a view of the lamps.

Meng Yawen was very familiar with this equipment, so even without turning her head, she could control the speed and other settings. This way, Zhao Xiaoshuai could work out while gazing affectionately at his girlfriend.

That wasn't all.

After adapting to the speed, Zhao Xiaoshuai would occasionally accelerate, run a bit forward, and "punch in" at the two headlights.

Or he would slightly stretch his neck to ask his girlfriend for a reward—a light peck.

The little girlfriend couldn't do anything about him, so she could only give him rewards while keeping an eye on his physical condition.

She would professionally and continuously adjust the speed, sometimes increasing the intensity, and other times letting him slow down.

When tired from running, the exerciser would usually hold onto the handrails on both sides to walk and catch their breath for a while.

And at this time, Zhao Xiaoshuai could hold his girlfriend's hands and listen to her encouraging sweet words, making his recovery even faster.

That wasn't all.

During the fat-burning exercise session, many movements would undoubtedly become much more fun if two people interacted.

For example, the knee-raise movement usually requires raising the right knee to hit the left hand, and raising the left knee to hit the right hand; this movement often has the problem of the knees not being raised high enough.

Then this movement could be upgraded: the little girlfriend would bend over slightly, using the headlights as the standard line.

If it wasn't raised high enough, he couldn't "punch in" at the headlights, which significantly increased the efficiency each time.

There were also some movements like bunny hops; in the past, he would follow the coach by looking at her back. Although the peach was nice to look at, it was, after all, not as good as the bunny.

Having the little girlfriend lead him in bunny hops face-to-face—the visual impact of that went without saying.

The rapid progress in their relationship made these little intimate moments feel natural.

Zhao Xiaoshuai inexplicably remembered his college days when he also followed the trend to go to the gym, but he didn't go often and didn't stick with it.

Now it seemed that he was just missing a fitness coach like his little girlfriend.

With a coach like that, who wouldn't run to the gym every day!

After working up a sweat, he stepped on a scale. If everything went as expected, the task should be completed after the settlement at 0:00 tonight.

"Then I'm leaving now. You go find Guan Xiaosu and get familiar with the business early. This place belongs to you from now on, so try to keep it running for a few more years before it goes bankrupt."

"It won't go bankrupt! This is a gift you gave me, and I will definitely manage it well!"

After kissing his little girlfriend goodbye, Zhao Xiaoshuai drove his dream car, the Midnight maybach, to the location of the class reunion.

It was still very early before the appointed time, but he wanted to park his beloved car in front of the restaurant early so that every old classmate who arrived later could see it.

In the few years after graduation, he did attend a few high school reunions.

Back then, he was still very naive, thinking that everyone was just simply reminiscing about the old days and getting together to reconnect.

As a result, less than ten people came in total, and among those who were doing just average, he was the only one who showed up.

The other classmates who attended were all driving cars, wearing watches, and carrying designer bags; each of them looked glamorous and bright.

There wasn't any obvious sarcasm or mockery at the dinner table, but after a few brief sighs about their youth, the conversation quickly turned into complaints about real life.

It was called complaining, but in reality, it was all showing off.

Things like how housing prices hadn't risen in recent years, making their three properties painful to look at, and not wanting to sell them, so they could only rent them out to recoup some costs.

Things like how life wasn't easy now, having lost over a million in previous years, so now they were just lying flat, living off interest, and not doing anything else.

At this time, another person would respond, "Indeed, indeed, business is hard to do now; I don't even make 100,000 a month with my store..."

All in all, this made Zhao Xiaoshuai, who was working hard for a fixed salary at the time, feel embarrassed to join the conversation, so he could only serve as background atmosphere.

But back then, he was clearly unconvinced.

These "successful" old classmates—some were relocation beneficiaries who, after getting a large sum of cash, happened to catch a certain trend.

Some had families that already had strength and connections, so they took over the family business and could make money without much effort.

Which one of them relied on their own strength to succeed? Not a single one!

But after being in society for so many years, Zhao Xiaoshuai no longer held those naive thoughts from back then.

Family background, luck, and appearance were all part of personal strength.

Everything else was just empty talk; the money in his hands was the only real thing.

He wouldn't continue to be a spectator for them like a fool, so after that, he stopped participating in high school reunions.

But now, it was different.

Using cheats was also part of strength; this was very reasonable.

Zhao Xiaoshuai planned it well, but plans didn't change as fast as reality.

Driving his maybach leisurely on the road, other surrounding vehicles kept a slightly larger distance from his beloved car.

Suddenly, an electric scooter cut across, and Zhao Xiaoshuai braked in time, but the car next to him was unlucky.

That driver, faced with the choice of hitting the person or hitting the maybach, chose to hit the railing.

The man got out of the car and cursed loudly, but it was to no avail; the electric scooter that had cut through had already sped away.

Zhao Xiaoshuai got out to check; his beloved car hadn't been scratched, so he breathed a sigh of relief and left.

After driving for a while longer, with his extraordinary vision, he suddenly saw a pretty young woman on the side of the street, anxiously looking at the road and occasionally looking down at her phone.

His heart stirred, and he slowly drove the maybach over, stopping in front of the beauty.

The car window slowly rolled down, revealing Zhao Xiaoshuai's handsome face. "You look like you're in a hurry; do you need any help?"

The girl's eyes lit up:

"I have something very urgent. I had booked a ride-hailing car in advance, but it hasn't arrived, and I can't get through to the driver."

"Brother, can you give me a ride? It won't be a long detour!"

[Ding! Unlocked Stranger Illustrated Handbook: Sun Yingxue (Character Rating 7.96)]

[Age: 20]

[Appearance: 8]

[Figure: 8]

[Emotional Value: 10]

[Congratulations to the host for luckily obtaining a multiplier silver card (Permanent)]

"No problem, get in."

Seeing the rating, Zhao Xiaoshuai couldn't help but take another look at this young girl; he didn't expect to encounter such a top-tier beauty on the main road.

[Experience: 7]

Like Meng Yawen, it was a situation where she had dated many boyfriends but kept herself pure.

But Meng Yawen had some kind of emotional knot; what was the reason for this young girl?

Girls are emotional; when they love, it's hard not to be reckless, and such an outstanding beauty faces too many temptations.

Sun Yingxue skipped to the passenger door; it was clear she was very happy.

Opening the door, she was the type to get in butt-first, and she naturally and elegantly adjusted the clothes around her waist and hips before sitting down.

(I really couldn't find a picture of her smoothing her hips while getting in, brothers, just imagine the action.)

"Brother, I'm going to Guilin Road. It's not very far; it won't delay your plans, right? You can just drop me off nearby if it's on your way!"

'Hmm, a very sensible girl, worthy of the "full emotional value" rating.'

"It's fine, I have plenty of time."
