Did you drive here today?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What car did you buy? You didn’t even post it on your Moments.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that, they hit right on Guo Peng’s sweet spot.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He quickly took out his phone from his pocket and shared the photos he had taken that morning in the group, “Hehe, check this out, guys. Is it worth it? A 2013 Honda Civic, on the road for 36,000. My cousin runs a repair shop, and he found this car for me.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The car looks really good, and it’s the high-end version too, this price is pretty good.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Pearl white, a classic color choice.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Not bad at all, Brother Peng! That’s a Civic!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The staff in the technical department were all young, and they often discussed cars, many of whom were quite knowledgeable, and they began discussing enthusiastically.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Guo Peng smiled smugly, excitedly said, “Automatic transmission, a beauty of a one-owner car, brand spanking new! 1.8L displacement, three large screens, leather seats, equipped with cruise control, multifunction steering wheel…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While talking, he kept sending pictures of the car’s details to the group.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was evident that Guo Peng cherished his second-hand car a lot.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He cleaned it inside and out, arranged car fragrances, seat covers, backrests, and ornaments neatly, and even tied a red ribbon to the rearview mirror.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Congratulations, Brother Guo, on the new set of wheels.” Tang Song also sincerely complimented, with a hint of envy in his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was also very interested in cars and had obtained a driver’s license during his college years.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, after graduation, he prioritized saving money for a house, not even daring to consider a second-hand car and could only indulge his cravings online.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After chatting with his colleagues about his new car, Guo Peng turned around and was taken aback when he saw Tang Song.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He stepped closer to Tang Song, a look of astonishment on his face, “It’s been just a few days since we last saw each other, and you’ve changed so much? You’ve lost weight and even got a new hairstyle! Gosh, why do I feel like you’ve gotten a little handsome!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Today was Thursday, and he had taken three days of annual leave; with the weekend, it had been only 5 or 6 days since he’d last seen Tang Song, but the transformation was striking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The puffiness that once marred Tang Song’s face was all gone, his double chin had become much less noticeable, and his belly had flattened considerably.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He appeared to have slimmed down all over, and with his cleaner skin and new haircut, he did indeed look much handsomer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“How about I send you my plan? It’s actually not that hard,” Tang Song winked at Guo Peng.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No, no, no, I’m not as hardcore as you are! Three meals of low-fat diet, climbing stairs, running, skipping rope, fat-burning exercises,” Guo Peng waved his hands in refusal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tang Song’s lips curled up in amusement but said no more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nobody could perceive changes in oneself as distinctly as oneself could.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having gone through the initial phase of adapting to his new routine, Tang Song’s weight loss was progressing more smoothly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His daily schedule of sleep, diet, exercise, and reading was well-ordered and strictly followed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He found himself in a unique state of positive feedback, relentlessly closing in on his goal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As of now, his weight had dropped to 82.5 kg, a reduction of 7.5 kg, or 15 pounds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What’s the concept of 15 pounds? Converted into pork, that would take a long time to eat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was only 1.5 kg away from his goal!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He opened the system interface.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Charm: 28]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As his physical fitness improved and his weight decreased, his charm value rose by another point.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was just 2 points away from unlocking the first stage of rewards.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He entered the Task Center to check the progress of his tasks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Challenge Task: Restraint and Persistence]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Task Description: Being overweight significantly increases the body’s burden and the risk of various diseases. The challenge is to lose 9 kilograms within 20 days and return to a normal weight range.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Task Reward: Lung Enhancement Potion*1]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Task Progress: ░░░░░░83% (8 days remaining)]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>————————\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>According to the current pace, the task would probably be completed the day after tomorrow, and then the long-awaited [Lung Enhancement Potion] would be obtained.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By that time, charm value would certainly increase, meaning, a 30-point charm is within reach!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tang Song took a deep breath, trying to calm his excited heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After finishing lunch.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As usual, Tang Song went downstairs and began walking around the Linjin Building to aid digestion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In his mind, he was still processing the skincare tutorial that Zhao Yaqian sent him yesterday.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After succeeding in losing weight, apart from fitness training, this was another key project for his transformation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Net friends had just given him some advice; the actual implementation was very complicated and required someone’s help.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thinking of this, Tang Song took out his phone and sent Zhao Yaqian a message, “Qianqian, are you free tonight? I’d like to take you out for a meal and also ask for your advice on using acids.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He pocketed his phone, when suddenly his shoulder was tapped.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His colleague Du Shaokai looped an arm around his neck, saying warmly, “Song, I knew I’d find you here. Got something to talk to you about, okay to chat?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Go ahead,” Tang Song’s brow furrowed slightly, his face void of much expression.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When he first started the job, he had a pretty good impression of this colleague.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Both were graduates of the Yan City University of Science and Technology class of 2020, and although they weren’t in the same major, they recognized each other.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Du Shaokai looked refined and handsome, and he was particularly warm in conversation, occasionally even treating him to meals.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For these reasons, Tang Song had helped him a lot during work.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When he came to him for advice on the architecture and data structure of the SCM system, Tang Song didn’t hold back any secrets.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, he didn’t expect that he would be brutally backstabbed by Du Shaokai, who took over the project maintenance work.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although Director Chen said it was for effective team division of labor, Tang Song didn’t believe a word of it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everybody in the workplace understood that to secure a place in the company without worrying about layoffs, one must get involved in core and profitable businesses.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And the company’s new SCM system was undoubtedly one of those projects.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Du Shaokai shrugged his shoulders and said with a chuckle, “The HR department wants to add a new module in the SCM, and I’ve been too busy lately. I’ll send you the requirement document later, do it when you have time, okay?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tang Song suddenly stopped walking and looked at him with amusement, “You think that’s appropriate?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Du Shaokai laughed it off, “With your capability, just working overtime on the weekend, I think it’s quite fitting.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, Tang Song immediately understood his little ploy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since graduation, Du Shaokai had been working at Jinxiu Commerce and was only responsible for maintaining a few corporate sites. His ability was actually quite poor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he were to be tasked with the secondary development of the SCM system, completing one module would take at least a month.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But for Tang Song, it would take at most a week.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In Du Shaokai’s mind, asking him to be the workhorse was the most fitting scenario.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“How about I take you to Cloud Leisure Inn for a foot massage?” Du Shaokai raised his eyebrows suggestively, “I bet you’ve never been to such a place. I can guarantee you’ll enjoy it, and you can pick any technician you want.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Heh,” Tang Song twisted his body, walked forward a few steps, and shrugged off his arm, “I’m busy.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A momentary lapse appeared on Du Shaokai’s face, and his tone grew a tad colder, “Song, you can put your other tasks on hold for now; this project is the top priority. Oh, and President Chen has also approved this.”\u003C\u002Fp>",1408,"2026-06-06T12:09:12.834Z",1,"novelbin.me","4e3e4deab1109b41705f9389f32b9e58937c489f7721a9836f797af7acdb5939","charm-point-maxed-out-inheriting-game-assets-chapter-17","charm-point-maxed-out-inheriting-game-assets-chapter-15",1887,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fcharm-point-maxed-out-inheriting-game-assets-cover.jpg"]
