Chapter 15

April 13, 2023, Thursday, Cloudy to light rain.

Jinxiu Trading Co., Ltd.

"Good morning everyone!" Guo Peng hummed a song and walked into the office area, with undisguised excitement on his face.

"Good morning Brother Peng, I heard you took two days off to buy a car. Did you drive it over today?"

"What car did you buy? I didn't see you post it on Moments."

As soon as these words came out, they instantly scratched Guo Peng's itch.

He hurriedly took his phone out of his pocket and shared the photo he just took this morning to the group: "Hehe, everyone take a look if it's worth it. 2013 Honda Civic, landed at 36,000. My cousin runs a car repair shop, and he helped me find the car."

"The car condition looks really good, and it's the high-end version. This price is quite worth it."

"Pearl white, classic color scheme."

"Not bad, Ferrari Civic!"

The employees of the technical department are all young people, and they often discuss topics about cars, many of whom are knowledgeable, and they began to discuss one after another.

Guo Peng smiled proudly and said with a flourish: "Automatic transmission, one-owner car from a beauty, brand new! 1.8L displacement, three big screens, leather seats, cruise control, multi-function steering wheel..."

While talking, he also sent photos of the car's details to the group.

It can be seen that Guo Peng cherishes his second-hand car very much.

It was wiped clean inside and out, and the fragrance, seat covers, cushions, and ornaments were all arranged very completely, and a red cloth strip was tied to the rearview mirror.

"Congratulations to Brother Peng for getting a new car." Tang Song also followed with a sincere compliment, with some envy in his eyes.

He was also very interested in cars and got his driver's license during college.

But after graduation, he prioritized saving money to buy a house, and didn't even dare to consider second-hand cars, so he could only satisfy his craving online.

After Guo Peng finished chatting with his colleagues about his new car, he turned his head and saw Tang Song, and his eyes widened instantly.

He leaned in front of Tang Song and said with a look of astonishment: "It's only been a few days, how come you've changed so much? You've lost weight, and you've got a new hairstyle! Damn, why do I feel like you're a little handsome!"

Today is Thursday. He took three days of annual leave, plus the weekend, so he hadn't seen Tang Song for 5 or 6 days, but he could clearly feel his changes.

The original puffiness on his face had disappeared, the double chin had become very slight, and his stomach was much flatter.

His physique had shrunk a circle overall, plus his cleaner skin and new hairstyle, he really looked handsome.

"Why don't I send you my plan? It's actually not difficult." Tang Song winked at Guo Peng.

"No, no, no, I'm not as ruthless as you! Three fat-loss meals a day, climbing stairs, running, jumping rope, fat-burning exercises." Guo Peng waved his hand repeatedly.

Tang Song couldn't help but curl his lips and didn't say anything more.

The one who can best perceive one's own changes is always oneself.

After passing the body's adaptation period, his weight loss rhythm became smoother and smoother.

His daily routine, diet, exercise, and reading were orderly and strictly executed.

The whole person fell into a unique state of positive feedback, desperately approaching the goal.

As of now, his weight had dropped to 82.5kg, a weight loss of 7.5 kilograms, 15 jin.

What is the concept of 15 jin? If it were pork, it would take a long time to eat.

Only 1.5kg away from the goal!

Open the system interface.

[Charm: 28]

With the improvement of physical fitness and the decrease in weight, his charm value increased by another 1 point.

According to the current progress, he can probably complete the task the day after tomorrow and get the long-awaited [Lung Strengthening Potion].

At that time, his charm value will definitely increase again, which means 30 points of charm are within reach!

Tang Song took a deep breath, trying to calm his excited mood.

After lunch.

Tang Song went downstairs as usual and started walking around the Linjin Building to digest.

His mind was still digesting the skincare tutorial sent by Zhao Yaqian yesterday.

After successful weight loss, besides fitness and shaping, this is also his key transformation project.

Netizens only gave him suggestions, and the specific implementation is very complicated and must be helped by someone.

Thinking of this, Tang Song took out his phone and sent a message to Zhao Yaqian: "Qianqian, are you free tonight? I'll treat you to a meal and ask for advice on acid brushing by the way."

Putting away the phone, his shoulder was suddenly patted.

Colleague Du Shaokai hugged his neck familiarly and said enthusiastically: "Old Song, I knew you were downstairs. I have something to ask you, want to chat?"

"Go ahead." Tang Song frowned slightly, with not much expression on his face.

When he first joined the company, he had a pretty good impression of this colleague.

Both were graduates of the 2020 class of Yancheng University of Science and Technology. Although they were not in the same major, they were familiar faces.

Du Shaokai looked gentle and handsome on the outside, spoke very enthusiastically, and occasionally treated him to meals.

Also because of these reasons, Tang Song helped him a lot during his work.

When he asked him about the architecture and data structure of the SCM system, Tang Song didn't hide anything.

He didn't expect to be backstabbed by him, taking away the project's maintenance work.

Although Director Chen said it was for effective team division, Tang Song didn't believe it at all.

Workplace people understand that if you want to gain a foothold in the company and not worry about being laid off, you must participate in core and profitable business.

And the company's new SCM system is undoubtedly this type of project.

Du Shaokai shrugged and laughed: "The Human Resources Department wants to add a new module to the SCM. I'm too busy lately. I'll send you the requirement document later, just do it when you have time."

Tang Song suddenly stopped and looked at him amusingly: "Do you think it's appropriate?"

Du Shaokai smiled indifferently: "With your ability, working overtime on the weekend is fine. I think it's very appropriate."

Hearing this, Tang Song instantly understood his little thoughts.

Du Shaokai had been working at Jinxiu Trading since graduation, only responsible for the maintenance of a few enterprise sites, and his level was actually very bad.

If he were to do the secondary development of the SCM system, the construction period for one module would be at least a month.

And if it were Tang Song, it would be at most a week.

In Du Shaokai's heart, finding him to be a coolie is the most appropriate.

"How about I treat you to a foot wash at Yunxianju?" Du Shaokai raised his eyebrows: "I guess you've never been to such a place. I guarantee it will make you feel great, and you can choose the technician."

"Hehe." Tang Song twisted his body, walked a few steps forward, and shook off his arm: "No time."

The expression on Du Shaokai's face stagnated slightly, and his tone became a little colder: "Old Song, you can put other work on hand aside first. This project has the highest priority. By the way, Director Chen also agreed to this."
