Protagonist:

Lu Feng

After Zhu Chang finished speaking, Tian Xiaolin tilted her head.

Although her brain did indeed occasionally work half a beat slower than others.

But she had also noticed that when Zhu Chang spoke just now, his gaze kept darting toward the roast duck on the table.

So she still vaguely sensed that little thought in his words.

Tian Xiaolin's eyes darted around quickly, picked out a roast duck leg from the plate with chopsticks, and handed it to Zhu Chang: "This roast duck is especially fragrant, crispy skin and tender meat, you take it and eat! Thank you for keeping my secret."

Zhu Chang scratched his head awkwardly, still pretending to be polite on his lips: "Ai! How embarrassing! Miss Tian, you're a celebrity, I rarely get to see you today, how could I eat your food……"

He said that with his mouth, but his other hand had already reached out quickly, taking the duck leg without the slightest hesitation.

As soon as the duck leg was in his hand, he impatiently brought it to his mouth and took a big bite.

"Delicious! So fragrant!"

Having roast duck again today, Zhu Chang felt the regret in his heart vanish all at once.

He finished the duck leg in two or three bites, looked at Tian Xiaolin patting her chest and promised: "Miss Tian, you can rest assured, I'm the tightest-lipped person! You eat at ease here, I definitely won't tell anyone!"

Seeing that Zhu Chang had been successfully bought by her, Tian Xiaolin finally put her heart at ease, lowered her head, and continued to enjoy the food.

Zhao Qifeng beside them had already finished the portion of Yangchun Noodles he ordered.

As a professional coach, he usually chewed slowly and carefully, but this bowl of Yangchun Noodles he devoured like wind sweeping away clouds, finishing it clean in a few minutes.

Zhao Qifeng looked up and saw Tian Xiaolin still eating with her head down, lost in the moment, and couldn't help but start worrying again.

"Miss Tian, you ate too much today…… sigh, don't know how much your weight will increase……"

When he was eating just now, his brain was filled with deliciousness, but now that he finished eating, reason once again occupied the high ground.

As an artist, Tian Xiaolin's agent was extremely strict about her weight management.

This meal she had today equaled her calorie intake for three days.

By tomorrow when she weighs herself, this fitness coach of his will probably be held accountable by the agent.

His professionalism might even be questioned.

Last time Tian Xiaolin was so hungry at midnight that she secretly ordered a portion of barbecue, and the next day when she weighed herself, her weight increased by half a jin.

As a result, the agent Yang Zhen called him into the office and lectured him for half an hour, saying that as a fitness coach, he couldn't even control the artist's weight, and spending so much money was like raising him for nothing.

Tian Xiaolin didn't lift her head, still chewing Dongpo Pork Knuckle in her mouth, her voice somewhat muffled: "Let the weight increase!"

She said while picking up another piece of roast duck with chopsticks: "The things at Lu Boss's place are really too delicious, such delicious things, even if I get fat after eating them, I accept it!"

Zhu Chang finished the duck leg in two or three bites, just about to leave gnawing on the bone.

After hearing their conversation, he came back again, interjecting with a confident face: "You don't need to worry, eating at Lu Boss's place definitely won't make you fat! Look at me——"

He patted his own round belly: "I come to Lu Boss's place to eat every day, every time I eat a lot, the amazing thing is my weight not only didn't increase, but actually lost quite a bit!"

"Your figure…… doesn't look like you lost weight."

Zhao Qifeng shook his head with a doubtful face, obviously not believing Zhu Chang's words.

He sized Zhu Chang up and down, glanced at his round belly.

This guy's belly stuck out like he was eight months pregnant, and he said he lost weight?

Buddy, your figure…… has no persuasiveness at all!

If you say your figure became like this from eating here, that would be believable.

"You can't not believe it!"

Zhu Chang was a bit unhappy.

His weight indeed dropped quite a bit during this period, many diners who knew him couldn't help but say he was thinner than before.

Zhu Chang said while gesturing with his hands: "My previous belly was rounder than now——this big! Last month I weighed myself, a full two hundred jin! Back then when I climbed the stairs at my home, every two floors I had to rest and pant for a long time."

Tian Xiaolin immediately had a visual image in her mind, couldn't help but giggle.

Zhu Chang didn't laugh along, his expression became more serious: "Since I came to eat at Lu Boss's place, hey! How strange! My waist doesn't ache anymore, my legs don't hurt anymore, I can climb seven floors in one breath without effort! Yesterday after I weighed myself, you guess how much I weigh now? One hundred eighty jin! A full twenty jin of meat lost!"

"Lost twenty jin of meat?"

Tian Xiaolin's eyes widened: "Really or fake? You didn't lie to me, right?"

"If I lied to you I'm a puppy!"

Zhu Chang took out his mobile phone from his pocket, found old photos and showed them to Tian Xiaolin and them: "Look, this is what I looked like before, compared with now, did I lose weight?"

Zhao Qifeng leaned over to look carefully at the photos in his mobile phone, and sized up Zhu Chang's current figure.

Although Zhu Chang still looked fat now, compared with the photos, he indeed seemed to have lost a circle.

Now Zhu Chang's belly was still protruding, but compared with the look in the photos where his clothes were about to burst, he looked much more normal.

More obviously, Zhu Chang's complexion now was also much rosier than other fat people he had seen.

However, just based on Zhu Chang's words and photos, Zhao Qifeng still didn't quite believe it.

"Have you been exercising and working out recently, so you lost weight?"

As a professional fitness coach, he felt that the idea of losing weight just by eating was not scientific at all.

"Exercise?"

Zhu Chang snorted with a laugh, looking at Zhao Qifeng and retorted: "If I was willing to exercise, could I have made myself into a big fat person before? If you don't believe it, you can go ask around, when did I, Zhu Chang, ever exercise?"

He said this very proudly, but what he said wasn't wrong at all.

Zhu Chang's laziness was also famous in Food Street.

Not only the diners in Lu Feng's shop knew this, but most people on Food Street had also heard of it.

Before he came to Lu Feng's shop to eat, he was too lazy to even go downstairs for meals, and ordered takeout instead.

Every day he ate and slept, slept and ate, or sat in front of the computer writing.

Where was there time to exercise?

Occasionally when he went out, he encountered promotional flyers handed out by gyms.

He threw them straight into the garbage bin without even looking.

Asking him to exercise was like taking his life.

"Then you... really didn't do anything special? You just ate here and lost weight?"

Zhao Qifeng felt this was truly unbelievable.
