Chapter 170 Keep practicing!
The next day,
That is, the day after Zhong Wan faced punishment,
Zhong Wan, unusually early, got up and went downstairs with great enthusiasm to prepare breakfast.
Although she had a poor appetite yesterday, she unexpectedly discovered a fun texture in addition to the taste.
Crisp vegetables, the melt-in-your-mouth smoothness of braised pork, and its chewy, sticky texture...
For a moment, she was genuinely curious about what the other dishes would taste like, and she was filled with anticipation for today's meal.
Well, besides food, what she worries about most is her weight.
She felt she hadn't eaten much yesterday, so she might not have lost any weight at all.
Thinking of this, Zhong Wan turned around.
She hurriedly returned to her room and asked Lin Yan'an, who was still washing up in the bathroom, "Lin Yan'an, do you have a scale at home?"
"Um?"
Lin Yan'an was brushing his teeth and didn't quite catch what she said. He quickly brushed his teeth and walked towards the bathroom door, asking in a muffled voice, "What are you babbling about?"
At the same time, Zhong Wanren walked up to Lin Yan'an, looked at the toothpaste foam on his lips, her nose twitched slightly, and she casually asked, "Did you change your toothpaste?"
"Um?"
Lin Yan'an looked at the toothbrush in her hand with a puzzled expression, then at Zhong Wan, and rinsed her mouth before asking, "No, what did you just ask me?"
His words instantly awakened Zhong Wan's memory, and she quickly asked again, "Where is the scale?"
"Do you have any at home? I feel like my belly has shrunk a lot since I woke up."
As Zhong Wan spoke, she reached out and touched her stomach.
Lin Yan'an was instantly amused, his eyes filled with amusement. Holding a toothbrush in one hand, he reached out and gently poked Zhong Wan's lower abdomen with his index finger, asking playfully, "Have you really lost weight?"
"snort."
Zhong Wan arrogantly slapped his hand away, feigning disdain, and said, "Tell me quickly, or I'll ask Grandpa."
Lin Yan'an said helplessly, "In the gym on the first floor."
"Ouk."
Having received an answer, Zhong Wan turned around with light steps: "Take your time, I'll go down first."
"good."
Watching her figure disappear quickly, Lin Yan'an shook his head helplessly and turned to continue washing up.
When Zhong Wan saw the number on the scale freeze, her joy reached its peak.
She weighs 103 pounds!
She has lost a full four pounds since the last time she weighed herself!
The last time she weighed herself was before she came here.
Zhong Wan didn't know if it was because she was not used to the local environment or because she had a poor appetite yesterday.
But thinking back to how she ate so heartily when she first arrived in Kyoto, and then thinking back to how little she ate yesterday because her sense of taste had diminished.
She immediately knew the answer in her heart.
Zhong Wan happily took a picture of the scale with her phone, then turned around and skipped away in a cheerful mood.
I had just stepped out of the gym when I spotted Lin Yan'an coming down.
Zhong Wan ran over happily and excitedly hugged his waist: "Haha, Lin Yan'an, I've really lost weight!"
"Um?"
Lin Yan'an reached out and hugged her, looking down at her bright smiling face, and asked curiously, "How much weight have you lost?"
"Four jin!"
As Zhong Wan spoke, she gestured to him.
"Hehe, I really didn't expect that losing my sense of taste would be such a good way to lose weight."
Lin Yan'an shook his head helplessly and reached out to pinch her little face: "You're not fat to begin with, there's no need for you to lose weight."
"Hmph, you don't understand."
Zhong Wan glanced at him sideways: "It's not necessary, but I'd be happy if I could lose a little more weight."
"How much weight do you think I can lose in the next few days?"
"have no idea."
Lin Yan'an's honest response didn't bother Zhong Wan; instead, she daydreamed, "It would be great if I could lose weight and get below 100."
"Why?"
"Oh dear, 100 is such a difficult weight to lose for me."
Zhong Wan immediately complained: "I can't stick to a diet for more than a few days, let alone when I'm under 100 pounds."
Lin Yanan listened quietly, looking at her with doting eyes. His fingers, which were resting on her waist, moved slightly, and he gently pinched her waist, teasingly saying, "I think this is just fine."
His gaze was meaningful; Zhong Wan looked up and met his eyes, instantly understanding.
Without any hesitation, she raised her hand and poked his stomach, feigning annoyance, "I think you're still a bit lacking, Mr. Lin. Keep practicing!"
After saying that, Zhong Wan smiled slyly at Lin Yan'an, raised her hand and patted his abs without any politeness, then turned and slipped away.
With a crisp "smack," the sound was both direct and playful, carrying an intimate provocation.
She really didn't hold back.
Lin Yan'an watched her light and nimble figure, then lowered his head to rub the spot she had "attacked," shaking his head and smiling with a mixture of helplessness and indulgence.
Grandpa Zhou had just returned from his walk when he spotted his big grandson standing there, grinning foolishly.
He rolled his eyes in exasperation, then turned and headed straight for the restaurant.
In the restaurant,
Zhong Wan was smiling as she helped serve the food inside.
Just looking at her bright smile made Grandpa Zhou smile along with her.
"Wanwan, you're up? You look great today."
Grandpa Zhou walked into the restaurant with a smile, his eyes full of kindness.
Upon hearing this, Zhong Wan turned her head to look, her face still carrying the excitement from before, her smile still bright: "Good morning, Grandpa."
"Grandpa, please sit down and eat first. Uncle Zhao and I will come back and finish serving you."
"Okay, thank you for your hard work, Wanwan. Grandpa will wait for you to eat together."
Grandpa Zhou walked to his seat and sat down, watching Zhong Wan, who was as energetic as a little bee.
Unlike her initial weakness, she now seemed fully revitalized, as if her entire body was brimming with inexhaustible energy.
Although... it seems her body hasn't fully recovered yet.
He was happy just looking at such a lively younger generation.
Soon, Lin Yan'an also came in.
Looking at the old man sitting in the main seat, he calmly greeted him, "Good morning, Grandpa."
"snort."
Unexpectedly, his politeness was met with a haughty snort.
Lin Yan'an was completely bewildered.
"Grandpa? What's wrong? Didn't you sleep well?"
Lin Yan'an walked over to him, asking questions as she went, and was just about to sit down when...
The old man slapped his arm without any politeness.
Old Master Zhou was speechless.
He raised his chin slightly in a gesture of disdain, glanced at Lin Yan'an, and said with a sarcastic tone, "You're the one who didn't sleep well! Your grandpa slept soundly!"
"Hey, what are you doing with your eyes? Can't you see your wife hasn't even sat down at the table yet? Aren't you going to go help her?!"
Hearing this, Lin Yan'an looked in the direction he indicated and saw Zhong Wan carrying porridge out of the kitchen.
He quickly strode over, reached out and took it, whispering, "Be careful, it's hot. I'll take it."
