Chapter 216 Prosperous Li

Chapter 215 Prosperous Li

Li Mu didn't really resonate with the pattern on the sketch. After all, he wasn't a fashion design major, so he couldn't imagine how his girlfriend would feel wearing it just from the sketch.

But from his perspective, the sketch was less like clothing and more like a figure drawing.

If you cut off the upper body and ankles from a human figure sketch, all that's left are the legs and buttocks.

That's about it.

However, I should definitely praise my girlfriend's work achievements.

He has many ways to express praise, so he can just choose the most appropriate one.

"elbow!"

"Hahaha……"

Amidst Fan Bingbing's laughter that filled the air, Li Mu, who hadn't touched a drop of alcohol but had eaten quite a bit of sea cucumber, carried her into the house.

Amidst the fine, sticky sweat, a cat-like rustling sound could be heard in the room.

The next day.

The sun was shining brightly.

As dawn broke, he picked up his bag and left for his shift on time.

Fan Bingbing was still asleep when he left.

She didn't wake up until a little after nine o'clock. After glancing at the time, she didn't call her boyfriend, but instead stretched out a big yawn in bed.

After another low moan that could make anyone blush, she finally got up and went to the bathroom, feeling her bones and muscles relax completely.

When she came out of the bathroom, she looked at the empty living room and didn't text her boyfriend. Instead, she went straight to the dining table.

There was a cup and an upside-down plate on the table.

Remove the plate; inside is a slice of toasted bread, a fried egg, and two slices of bacon.

The cup contained a cup of black coffee.

"Tsk."

She looked at the two glistening slices of bacon and unconsciously turned her drooling into a sound of disgust.

That was the resolute expulsion of physical desires by consciousness.

After resolutely resisting the temptation of bacon, she hastily picked up the bread, pinched both ends, wrapped the fried egg around it, and took a bite.

It doesn't taste very good... but at least it won't make you fat.

But that's where my boyfriend's thoughtfulness lies. The bread was a bit hard from being toasted, which made it a perfect match for this cup of coffee.

It helps drain water, reduce swelling, and fill the stomach.

Of course, anyone who believes that a slice of bread and a fried egg can fill them up is simply delusional.

But no matter what, it was still a meal.

After finishing breakfast, she went into the master bedroom, found a bottle of sunscreen on the newly bought small table that served as a makeup remover, applied it all over her body, and then came to the living room with an oily face.

Turn off the air conditioner, open the windows, and let the air flow in naturally...

He unfolded his exercise mat at the edge of the sunlight on the balcony and sat down cross-legged.

Sit down, remain still, and close your eyes.

This is meditation.

I learned it from my yoga teacher.

Yoga

This word is still unfamiliar to many people in China, and Fan Bingbing has only been familiar with it for a short time. It was after filming "My Fair Princess 1" that she went to Taiwan to promote it.

At the time, she was still working at Qiong Yao's company. The company had a body shaping class, and the body shaping teacher did not recommend the "Beijing Dance Academy" body shaping method commonly used in China.

It is this kind of exercise called yoga.

It is a type of exercise that originated in India, similar to the Five Animal Frolics in China.

However, it is not as profound as health-preserving exercises, and it is gentler than the almost harsh body shaping and sculpting methods of the Beijing Dance Academy.

Fan Bingbing quickly fell in love with this sport.

This sport requires a harmonious unity of body, mind, and spirit.

She really likes the way of maintaining mental calm, focused mind, and body control, including meditation, mental techniques, and physical movements, all of which are highly unified.

Moreover... it must be admitted that this exercise is remarkably effective in maintaining a good figure.

At least she felt that her figure was getting better and better.

Especially the core strength.

Her boyfriend said that sometimes she twists him like a wrench...

This is no joke.

Although she has only been practicing for two or three years, she has already made a basic understanding of the control of various muscles in her body.

At this moment, she is having her first lesson before exercising.

meditation.

Through meditation, calm your mind, focus your attention, and strive to feel everything in nature.

For example, the sunlight streaming through the glass window...

Actually, it would be better if she could go outside and experience nature. But... for her, unless her house has its own terrace, it's generally unlikely.

But it's okay...

calm.

Consciousness slowly sank.

Feel your body, feel everything around you.

She didn't know how much time had passed, but finally, she slowly came to her senses, and the slight sweat on her body proved that she was ready.

So she stood up, adjusted her breathing, and slowly raised her hands, performing the first yoga pose...

The first, the second... When she practiced the second standing pose—Warrior II—her bare feet stepped forward and rubbed slightly against the exercise mat.

Suddenly, her brows furrowed slightly as she calmly closed her eyes.

The slight burning pain in her feet reminded her of the drawbacks of this exercise mat.

Its friction is quite strong; if it comes into contact with the skin too quickly, it can be quite painful.

Hmm, it would be great if there were a practice mat with a nice feel and good friction, so that it wouldn't hurt if you accidentally rubbed it.

This thought flashed through her mind.

But she quickly regained her composure and continued practicing each pose methodically.

Mountain Pose, Warrior Pose, Bent-Over Pose...

By the time she finished standing, she was covered in sweat.

But at this moment, the body's functions have also reached their peak.

So she began to challenge herself with more advanced yoga poses, such as the balancing pose.

Balance exercises, as the name suggests, involve using the body in a balanced or equal manner to move flexibly, assume postures, and coordinate limbs. They can bring peace and tranquility to the mind and improve concentration.

Conversely, mental balance translates into ultimate control over the body.

She didn't do particularly well in this regard.

It requires yoga practitioners to consistently train for years or even decades to achieve ultimate body control.

When she began to engage all her muscles to achieve a profound balance between her inner and outer state, she was already drenched in sweat.

From this perspective, she can almost be considered a failure.

Because yoga is not only about the balance of body and mind, but also about the balance of all things in the world.

The fact that she was sweating profusely at that moment indicated that she had not reached a state of natural temperature balance with the outside world; otherwise, she wouldn't be sweating so much.

But... there's nothing I can do.

These stirrup pants I'm wearing are so hot.

Without the air conditioning on and with the windows open, only the person experiencing it can truly understand the temperature in Guangdong in March and the discomfort caused by these black leggings.

But she couldn't change it because she really needed that feeling of being enveloped in her legs, which helped her feel the rhythm of her leg muscles.

Until she could no longer maintain one of the most difficult yoga poses for balance—the Dancer Pose—and her whole body collapsed.

"Huff... huff... huff..."

With rapid breathing, she returned to a standing position, trying to adjust her body's state using abdominal breathing.

At this moment, sweat had soaked the training mat.

Dots of stars.

By the time his breathing calmed down, it was already past 11 o'clock.

After nearly an hour and a half of training, she felt completely relaxed and left the training mat.

As she drank water, she caught a glimpse of sweat on the exercise mat out of the corner of her eye... She pondered for a moment and decided that the exercise mat wasn't quite ready to be washed.

She actually cares quite a bit about her yoga mat. The reason is simple: when she was working at the company, she had just started practicing yoga. There were a few poses where people had to lie face down on the ground. She experienced that indescribable stimulating sensation after being soaked in the sweat of many people, combined with foot sweat and even the friction of buttocks.

The truth is... utterly awful.

That tangy, unpleasant taste is something I'll never forget.

Therefore, using her own practice mat, washing it frequently, and paying attention to hygiene are her most basic requirements.

She simply couldn't stand the shared kind.

I wonder how many girls have stepped on, sat on, sweated on, and smelled strongly of their bodies on this exercise mat... It's disgusting.

Thinking about this, she decided to wash up and take a shower.

Think and do.

So she tensed her leg muscles and began to take off the stirrup pants.

Once the pants were taken off, the tightly wrapped muscles immediately relaxed a lot.

She breathed a sigh of relief... feeling the coolness on her thigh, and subconsciously touched her pants.

Good heavens, it's all wet.

It seems Wei Xiaojun was right; these pants really aren't very breathable.

Well……

Thinking of this, she suddenly narrowed her eyes and fell into deep thought.

He then found his notebook and wrote a line next to the sketch of the leggings:

"People who sweat easily need to breathe more; otherwise, they will feel hot, feel tighter, and sweat even more."

After finishing writing, she thought for a moment and continued writing:

"The exercise mat is also uncomfortable to wear, and it's very absorbent and difficult to clean."

"Coolness and breathability are the top priorities."

"The stitches sometimes rub against the crotch. Pay attention to the stitching technique—comfort is very important!"

After finishing writing, she nodded in satisfaction, closed the notebook, and carried the exercise mat into the bathroom.

Even while showering, she was thinking about how to improve these tight-fitting sports pants.

As for the reason... it's quite simple.

She genuinely felt that her skinny jeans, which she had modified according to her boyfriend's aesthetic sense, were very versatile.

And it was precisely because she had met with people from Yichun and talked about these things that she felt... she seemed to have discovered a new business opportunity.

What many people don't know is that before her mother chose to become her own agent when she was a child, her family had always been in the clothing business.

She started out in clothing retail, and she even went south with her mother to work on pattern making in Guangzhou and Hangzhou.

The so-called "pattern making" refers to selecting clothes from wholesalers, determining the pattern, and then taking them back to sell.

Furthermore, the patterns I designed myself sold quite well at home a few years ago.

This indirectly proves that their judgment is not bad.

Later, as the family business improved, my mother even considered switching to wholesale. However, plans couldn't keep up with changes; the TV series "Princess Pearl" became a huge hit, and the family's clothing business had to be temporarily suspended.

Later, when my mother became pregnant with my younger brother, the business couldn't be picked up again.

But... through an unintentional, accidental encounter with her boyfriend, she felt as if she had discovered a blue ocean market.

Leaving aside other matters.

At least, that kind of outfit...

It looks great on me!

Since I have some spare money now, I'll wait until the design is finished and then have a garment factory make a pattern to test it out.

After all, you're just idling around anyway.

Moreover... although it sounds absurd.

But she had even come up with a name for her clothing brand.

Let's call it VL.

VAN·LEE.

Nutmeg.
