It's just that they have money.

The two found a nearby tavern, ordered some snacks, and chatted idly until they were both quite drunk.

Zhang Zhenghao had to go to work the next day, so he didn't drink much and finished early, not enough to cause a hangover.

Slightly drunk, the two walked arm in arm, like Tom the cat and his drinking buddies, singing songs that passersby couldn't understand.

"I'm saying, not going to work doesn't mean not working. Even if you win the lottery, you can't play around forever. Have you thought about what you'll do next?"

Slightly tipsy, Zhang Zhenghao genuinely cared about his good friend.

Fang Chen had drunk a bit too much and his mind wasn't quite sharp at the moment: "Let's talk about it some more. I need to go back to my hometown in a while to rebuild the house."

"Hey, you're a decent guy too."

……

Fang Chen got up early the next day to wash up and officially began his disciplined life.

"Mr. Fang, based on your current physical condition and expected goals, we do not recommend that you do high-intensity cardio at this time. We will first conduct a week of adaptation training, and then start building muscle and losing fat."

The temperature in Jiangcheng during the short spring was just right. Luo Shanshan, wearing a light purple sports vest and shorts, earnestly explained the initial training plan to Fang Chen.

"No need to be so polite, and no need to address me as 'you,' just call me Fang Chen."

Fang Chen's goal is simply to develop defined lines and broaden his shoulders and back, so that he can look better and have more style in clothes. He doesn't need to become a muscular hunk.

Moreover, the current situation is that moderate exercise attracts the opposite sex, while excessive exercise attracts the same sex.

Both men and women.

Fang Chen didn't want to be covered in sweat.

Therefore, his training program is not very intense.

However, due to my long hours sitting in the office and lack of exercise, my physical condition is poor, and I need a period of adjustment.

Upon hearing this, Luo Shanshan's lips curved into a perfectly measured smile, neither overly enthusiastic nor lacking in professional friendliness: "Then let's start with the basics of core stability and joint mobility. Many people tend to overlook this step when working out and jump straight into heavy weights, which can easily lead to injury."

Fang Chen nodded.

Although he doesn't pursue extreme muscle mass, he still acknowledges the value of scientific training: "You're the professional, I'll listen to you."

Luo Shanshan is petite and cute, yet she exudes strength; this contrast is incredibly endearing.

Moreover, her voice was clear and crisp. When giving instructions, she would get close enough to lightly touch the parts of Fang Chen's body that needed to exert force with her fingers, but she always kept the distance perfectly and there was no unnecessary physical contact.

Fang Chen really liked this sense of propriety.

For heterosexuals, such close contact with peers inevitably leads to fantasies.

But this doesn't mean that Fang Chen has any thoughts or intentions towards Luo Shanshan.

He's not the kind of virgin who's never been in a relationship or worked on a multi-billion dollar project; he won't get aroused by every woman he's sexually attracted to.

The current sense of distance is just right.

If something is really going to happen, shouldn't we at least get to know each other and build up our relationship first?

In Fang Chen's view, venting desires without an emotional foundation is not much better than taking matters into one's own hands.

Before long, the warm-up was over, and Luo Shanshan led Fang Chen to the private training area.

It's a weekday morning, so the gym isn't crowded to begin with, and the personal training area is even less so.

But Fang Chen unexpectedly encountered a familiar face.

"Dr. Yin, you're here too."

Hearing someone greet him, Yin Fan turned his gaze over and said, "Hello, Mr. Fang."

Since they were VIP clients and had just met yesterday, they both remembered each other.

"Are you off work today?"

"yes."

Unlike Luo Shanshan's sense of distance, Yin Fan's tone was so calm that it felt as if the two were worlds apart, creating a strong sense of estrangement.

This sense of distance, given that the relationship between the two is limited to acquaintance, can be considered a matter of politeness.

Politely decline your attempts to get close.

But Fang Chen wasn't trying to get close to them; he just greeted people he knew, nothing more.

However, the other party's aloofness also confirmed Fang Chen's suspicion that the other party's enthusiasm at the medical examination center yesterday was merely due to professional needs.

If you need to hire a private doctor in the future, a doctor with this kind of personality might be a good choice.

They remain at an informed level, while maintaining professionalism, without delving too deeply into your life.

Fang Chen didn't continue with pleasantries, and turned to Luo Shanshan, saying, "Coach, let's begin."

At that moment, Yin Fan had just finished warming up on the treadmill and stopped.

She looked up at Fang Chen's back, a hint of surprise flashing in her eyes.

She had assumed that, given Fang Chen's seemingly gentle yet inquisitive gaze at the medical examination center yesterday, their chance encounter today would lead him to strike up a conversation under the guise of being acquaintances, and he might even try to arrange another meeting.

After all, she was already used to the overt or covert advances and advances from men, especially men like Fang Chen who were so well-off.

There have been far too many people like this since my student days.

Fang Chen offered only a simple greeting, and after receiving a slightly cold response, he turned around and threw himself into his training without any hesitation or further action.

This decisive and efficient approach made Yin Fan feel somewhat uncomfortable.

She subconsciously glanced at Fang Chen's back a couple more times. He was listening intently to the female coach explaining the key points of the movements, his expression serious, as if everything around him was irrelevant.

"I still hired a female coach; after all, he's just a man." Yin Fan thought to himself as he continued his training plan.

On the other side, Fang Chen, who had officially started training, clearly felt the strain.

His lack of exercise over a long period, coupled with lower back and neck problems caused by desk work, made him feel muscle soreness and start to pant slightly after just a few simple core activation exercises.

Luo Shanshan patiently corrected his posture: "Tighten your abs, imagine your navel touching your spine, yes, hold it."

Fang Chen gritted his teeth and held his breath, and soon fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.

Only when he actually started training did he realize just how bad his body had become.

Back in my school days, I was not only a prince on the sports field, but also a master of various sports.

After a match, all I felt was the exhilarating feeling of being drenched in sweat. When have I ever felt so exhausted?

Going to work is torture!

"Don't hold your breath, keep your breathing steady," Luo Shanshan's voice rang out at the right moment.

Fang Chen adjusted his breathing rhythm, his gaze falling on the mirror to the side. Looking at his slightly stiff movements, a self-deprecating smile appeared on his lips.

It turns out I can't even do the most basic movements correctly.

After twenty minutes of basic training, Fang Chen was already panting.

Luo Shanshan handed over the towel: "This is already very good for the first day. We'll proceed step by step."

Fang Chen took the towel to wipe his sweat, and out of the corner of his eye, he saw Yin Fan doing strength training on the other side. Her movements were standard and smooth, and sweat slid down her firm arms, making her look completely different from her usual cool and aloof image in her white coat.

He turned his gaze away and listened intently as Luo Shanshan explained the next set of movements, with only one thought in his mind.

We must first improve our physical fitness.
