"Mrs. Zheng, your waist circumference is now 90, which is 4 centimeters smaller than a week ago... Your left arm is 30, and your right arm is 28.5, which are 2 and 3 centimeters smaller respectively."
After that, Shao Mo explained: "You usually use your right hand more, so your right arm is relatively thin. Next, we can focus more on the left hand in our training and try to keep the circumference of the two arms consistent."
Afterwards, Shao Mo read out the circumference of her chest, hips and thighs one by one. Judging from the data, they were all 2-4 centimeters thinner than a week ago.
"Mrs. Zheng, your body size is the best indicator of your hard work this week. Are you still afraid of weighing yourself now?"
Mrs. Zheng shook her head vigorously. "Don't worry. It's okay even if I don't lose a pound. My waist and thighs are thinner. Why should I care about my weight?"
After saying that, Mrs. Zheng stepped onto the scale.
"135! Oh my god, ma'am, you've lost 10 pounds!"
The nanny screamed in surprise, while Mrs. Zheng covered her mouth in disbelief.
"Xiaomo, I lost weight? Is this scale broken? I really lost weight? I lost 10 pounds? How is that possible?"
Shao Mo put a bottle of water on the scale with amusement, "Look, a bottle of water is 2 jin, the scale is not broken."
"I lost 10 pounds? I lost 10 pounds! I'm going to call my husband and tell him the good news!"
Looking at Mrs. Zheng's back as she ran away, Shao Mo felt an indescribable sense of accomplishment and pleasure in her heart.
It feels really good to help others.
According to the plan, today was originally the day for Mrs. Zheng to have a big meal and relax, but Mrs. Zheng cherished her weight loss results very much, and she didn't dare to eat this or that. It was only after Shao Mo's persuasion that she dared to eat something.
Time passed quickly, and half a month had passed in the blink of an eye. There were several consecutive snowfalls in the capital, which brought great inconvenience to Shao Mo's travel.
The small villa where Mrs. Zheng lives is halfway up a mountain. The road up the mountain is icy and slippery, so cars can’t drive up, so she has to walk up every day.
But sometimes she is inevitably delayed by other things and cannot take care of this side. Fortunately, Mrs. Zheng's confidence and self-discipline are unprecedentedly high because of the success of the first stage. Even if Shao Mo does not come, she strictly follows the diet menu and insists on exercise and fitness every day.
Soon, the results of the second phase came out.
Although not as obvious as the first stage, I still lost 6 kilograms.
The two steps add up to 16 pounds. I lost 16 pounds in just half a month, which is far beyond Shao Mo's promise of losing 15-20 pounds in a month.
On the day of the weigh-in, Mrs. Zheng called her husband to tell him the good news and asked him to sign the contract with Shaw Brothers.
Upon learning that his wife had lost 16 kilograms, Mr. Zheng immediately expressed his desire to come and see her.
Mrs. Zheng has been living in the mountains for some time, while Mr. Zheng has been traveling around the world. The couple haven't seen each other for half a month.
Thinking of Shao Mo's reminder, she suppressed her longing and rejected her husband.
"No, Miss Shao said that I can't see anyone within this month. She said that a too happy family and love life will affect my determination and willpower. Husband, wait for me. I will be home in another half a month."
Mr. Zheng had no choice but to compromise, since he is a wife-doting maniac.
Shao Mo has to go to class and urge Mrs. Zheng to lose weight, so she is very busy every day, and Ling Chuan is also as busy as a top.
The online electronics store business is quite considerable, with daily revenue stable at around 50,000.
Among them, the sales of pagers accounted for 70%, and other electronic appliances accounted for 30%, with profits of no less than 4,000 per day.
However, 40% of the profits from pagers are still in the hands of the company, and this 40% of the money can only be taken out after the sales target is achieved next year.
That night, after calculating the revenue and profit for the day, Ling Chuan happily told Shao Mo, "Wife, if we continue at this pace, we can prepare to open a branch store next month."
Hearing this, Shao Mo took the account book and flipped through it, and a smile appeared on her face.
"Well, that's good. Don't wait until next month. When you have time during this period, drive out and look for a suitable branch address. It's best if it's not too far from the main store. That way, if anything happens, you can rush there to deal with it in time."
Ling Chuan held her in his arms, his dark eyes filled with gentle light like the stars.
"Wife, do you want a gift? I'll buy it for you."
Shao Mo raised her head and thought for a while, "Forget it, I'd better save the money."
"Then I will transfer all the money in my account to your passbook tomorrow."
"Why transfer it to my account?"
"All the money I earn is yours, so of course I have to give it to you for safekeeping. Wife, it's great to have you. I will continue to work hard and not let you and dad down."
Shao Mo relaxed and nestled herself in the man's arms. "Although career is important, study can't be left behind. Don't forget, we are going to graduate together. Have you studied recently?"
Ling Chuan nodded quickly, "Yes, during the day when no one is in the store, I read books and do exercises."
Shao Mo sat up from his arms, "Are there any questions you don't understand? I'll explain them to you tonight when I'm free."
"No, the tailor next door used to be a teacher. He likes to listen to operas, so I gave him a tape recorder to listen to operas. If I have any questions, I can go to him and ask him. He will explain them to me very well, and I will understand them as soon as I listen."
"So what you mean is that I didn't explain the question well and you couldn't understand it?"
"No, wife, I just don't want you to be too hard-working. You have to go to class every day, help Mrs. Zheng lose weight, and come to the store to help on weekends. You don't have much time to rest."
Shao Mo was satisfied. "Okay, since the tailor is teaching well, you can learn from him in the future. But you have to learn English from me. Have you memorized English words and short sentences recently?"
Ling Chuan nodded quickly, "Yes, I memorize ten words and five short sentences every day."
"Then let me test you." Shao Mo thought for a moment, "How do you say welcome?"
"Welcome."
"How about welcome to our store?"
"Welcome to our shop."
"What can I do for you?"
"What can I do for you?"
Shao Mo nodded. "This sentence can also be expressed as Can I help you, which means can I help you with anything? It means the same as May I ask what you need?"
Ling Chuan nodded quickly and took out a small notebook to write down the short sentence.
Shao Mo felt comforted to see the man working so hard and seriously.

"Brother Zhen, Brother Zhen, when did you get such a beautiful lady to move in here?"
Zhou Ye got off Shen Zhen's jeep and saw a tall girl with a bun on her head and wearing a pink down jacket not far in front of him. He immediately pulled Shen Zhen to ask curiously.
Shen Zhen glanced at the girl's back, turned his head and glanced at Zhou Ye as if he was looking at a mentally retarded person.
"Are you blind?"
Zhou Ye was a little confused. Why did he get angry for no reason? Could it be...
Seeing the golden retriever in the girl's hand, Zhou Ye suddenly realized, "Oh, I see! Brother Zhen, which school is he from this time? Isn't he from Beijing University?"
