Chapter 6. Are you Xiaowen's boyfriend?
Inside the yoga studio.
Gao Wen is stretching while sitting on a yoga mat.
She had just finished one class, and her next class was in half an hour.
When she wasn't in class, Gao Wen would practice on her own.
"Buzz buzz buzz—"
The phone lit up and a notification sound came on.
Gao Wen took the phone.
Fang Han: [Image]
Fang Han: [I'm free tonight, do you need me to assemble your table?]
Gao Wen opened the photo Fang Han sent and quickly typed out: 【Are all these packages mine?】
The trolley in the photo had dozens of packages of various sizes, and the most eye-catching thing was the large table. Fang Han had asked if she needed help assembling this.
Fang Han: [Yes, thirty-two in total.]
Gao Wen: [Sorry, I bought too much without thinking.]
Gao Wen has been quite busy these past few days. Her private lessons, which started with three per week, have been scheduled for one per day, and sometimes two or three.
It was purely the members who requested additional classes, because every class was fully booked and they couldn't schedule any.
This resulted in Gao Wen postponing the move to the weekend, because Fang Han was off work and could lend a hand; otherwise, she really couldn't handle it all by herself.
Taking advantage of some free time, Gao Wen ordered the things she needed online and asked Fang Han to pick them up for her when he had time.
She truly hadn't expected there to be so many.
Fang Han quickly replied: [Not many, I also had a package to pick up, it was just something I did on the way.]
Gao Wen was still embarrassed. He didn't need a cart to pick up his own package: "Senior, you don't need to help me assemble it yet. I haven't figured out where to put it."
Fang Han saw Gao Wen's reply, then glanced at the large package on the cart, a hint of disappointment in his eyes: "Okay."
Gao Wen wanted to say something more to him, but Zhang Ni walked in from the doorway, beaming and greeting her warmly, "Teacher Wenwen~~~~"
Zhang Ni is one of the most diligent members in Gao Wen's classes. Except for the evenings when she has to take care of her child, she attends all the daytime classes.
She told Gao Wen that she was fat and unattractive after giving birth, had a bad gait, and her legs weren't straight; she had problems all over her body. Her words revealed a strong sense of inferiority. She also mentioned that since having the baby, her husband's career had improved, but he was also very busy, while she felt worthless.
It's not that serious. Zhang Ni is pretty, tall, and fair-skinned; she just gained a little weight during pregnancy, but she's recovered well. Most people's posture isn't perfect, but Gao Wen told her she could improve it through practice, and that body shape and posture can be changed.
Zhang Ni is only two years older than Gao Wen. She got married right after graduation and looks as innocent as a college student. She always arrives ten minutes early just to chat with Gao Wen.
"Good afternoon." Gao Wen stood up, walked towards the teaching aids room, brought her phone to her mouth, and said in a low voice, "Senior, I'm going to class now, bye-bye."
Fang Han carried the package to the master bedroom where Gao Wen was going to stay. When he received the voice message from her, he stared at it for two seconds before opening it and listening to it.
"Senior—"
A soft, sweet voice came out, and Fang Han's hand trembled, almost dropping his phone. His ears turned slightly red, and he hurriedly turned down the volume and looked around.
Even though he knew no one was around, Fang Han's heart was still pounding. It was all because the foldable phone he bought was too heavy; he would definitely replace it next time!
He closed the door, turned on the voice chat again, and brought it close to his ear to listen.
On the other end.
Gao Wen took the teaching aids and walked out, putting her phone on silent and aside.
She is rigorous and responsible in her teaching. As soon as the members arrive, she gets into teaching mode with a serious attitude.
"Thank you~~~" Zhang Ni took her teaching aids, stood up, and put her legs together. "Teacher Wenwen, do you think if I practice my legs more, they will become straight and thin?"
"You need to start by training your arches, find the right point of force to build a solid foundation, and then train your knees and hips. Your walking posture will change, and your legs will naturally straighten. Training your legs alone is useless." Gao Wen placed the teaching aids next to the other yoga mats.
Upon hearing this, Zhang Ni raised her voice in delight: "I knew it! You're an excellent yoga teacher! You're a professional!"
Gao Wen was opening the window when she heard what she said and turned around. She was so surprised and flattered that she blushed.
Zhang Ni said excitedly, "I used to take private lessons at other yoga studios, but after dozens of sessions, my legs didn't change at all, and I even strained my back. In the end, the teacher was too embarrassed to let me continue taking classes. The rehabilitation therapist at the hospital told me that the yoga teacher was a mediocre one and that I shouldn't follow him blindly and hurt myself, unless I met a yoga teacher who would teach me to start with the arches of my feet, then I could learn from him."
As Zhang Ni said this, several other members of the small class came in one after another and overheard everything.
One of the older women said, "Teacher Wenwen is not only serious, but also very willing to put in a lot of effort, as if she's afraid we'll waste our money on this class."
"Absolutely! They're so conscientious and responsible!"
“I noticed it in the first class, and now I keep an eye on her private class reservations, because they'll be gone if I wait too long.”
"Me too."
......
The five members spoke one after another.
They are long-time members, and they know perfectly well whether the teacher is dedicated or not.
When class ended, they would all praise Gao Wen for being serious and responsible, but when class started, they would act differently because Gao Wen was too ruthless.
Gao Wen came to Zhang Ni's side, watching her stagger and dig her toes into the ground. She stepped on Zhang Ni's foot and whispered, "Use your big toe, use the inside of your foot."
Zhang Ni obeyed and did as instructed. Her body became much more stable, and she grinned at Gao Wen.
At this moment, Gao Wen was nothing like the approachable and easy-going person she was when class ended. She reached out and gently placed her hand on her leg, asking seriously, "Why aren't you putting any force into your legs?"
“I put my strength into it,” Zhang Ni retorted.
“It’s a little bit now,” Gao Wen emphasized, “but only a tiny bit, so insignificant.”
“........” Zhang Ni gritted her teeth and tensed her thighs.
"Now that's when it really starts to exert its power, it's shaking," Gao Wen said.
Fine beads of sweat trickled down Zhang Ni's forehead; she couldn't even bother to answer Gao Wen's question.
Gao Wen extended three fingers to support Zhang Ni's raised leg, and looked at her again: "Are you using my hand as support? Use your own strength to lift your foot off my hand."
Zhang Ni: "!!!"
"Get out of my hand," Gao Wen reminded him again, not joking at all, and leaving no room for negotiation.
Zhang Ni's thighs began to tremble violently, sweat poured down her face, and her breathing became rapid.
“Very good,” Gao Wen withdrew her hand and praised softly, “Great job, your posture is very standard and beautiful, let’s keep going for a while longer.”
The strength that those words gave Zhang Ni, who was about to give up, gritted her teeth again, counted down in her mind, and persevered.
She's the best! The best!
Gao Wen walked towards another member.
Although Zhang Ni was the worst student, no one laughed at her because in Gao Wen's class, everyone had their own "bitter fruit" to eat, and everyone had a share, so there was no need to rush.
Gao Wen will adjust the training according to each member's level to ensure that every minute of class time is used effectively.
Just as the members said, Gao Wen spared no effort and would get to work without hesitation, not minding helping them activate deeper muscles.
That concludes our lesson. Thank you everyone.
"Clap clap clap clap—"
As soon as Gao Wen announced the end of get out of class, everyone was so happy they wanted to clap their hands until they cried.
One of the older members, panting and wiping his sweat, walked out: "Finally, get out of class is over. Today was another day of practice. Thank you, Teacher Wenwen."
Zhang Ni lay sprawled on the yoga mat for a while, then looked at the soaked towel and said to Gao Wen, "My husband still doesn't agree to me taking your class. Look how much you've sweated! It's been so long since I've been this diligent and motivated."
Gao Wen smiled at Zhang Ni, then looked at her phone to see how many packages she had left, before replying to Fang Han's message.
Zhang Ni clenched her fists: "No, I have to sign up for some more classes and learn from you. I must make my husband look at me with new respect."
As I walked to the front desk, I was delighted to hear Zhang Ni say she wanted to enroll in a course.
She'll get sales if she signs up for courses. Zhang Ni is a simple person who's easy to fool, so we can get her to stock up on more courses.
Before the receptionist could even walk in, Gao Wen said, "Don't you still have dozens of classes left? Finish them first."
If she remembered correctly, the courses Zhang Ni bought were all universal.
“Okay, I’ll listen to you,” Zhang Ni praised Gao Wen again, “I think you’re different from the others.”
They didn't try to trick her into buying the course!
Outside the door, the receptionist had a long face, thinking Gao Wen was an idiot.
If you don't know how to persuade customers and take money from their pockets, what kind of future can you have?!
*
Saturday.
Gao Wen gets up before dawn and practices yoga for an hour without fail, demonstrating her self-discipline.
She finished her bath, and it was already broad daylight.
Gao Wen changed her clothes and went downstairs. She went to the first canteen and bought a cup of unsweetened black sesame soy milk and a steamed bun for breakfast.
This is her usual breakfast.
Perhaps for this reason, Gao Wen didn't put much effort into hair care, yet her hair was very black, smooth, and shiny, and she was asked many times how she maintained it.
After breakfast, Gao Wen went to the express delivery station.
She picked up a package from school and wanted to buy two cardboard boxes from the deliveryman.
The deliveryman didn't take any money; instead, he gave her three.
"Thank you," Gao Wen said, leaving behind a bottle of fresh milk she had just bought, which had been warmed up.
Gao Wen carried the cardboard box back to her dormitory.
I had just gotten downstairs when I received a message from Fang Han.
Gao Wen called him directly, and he answered quickly.
"Senior, where are you?" Gao Wen put down the cardboard box to answer the phone.
"Behind you."
Hearing this, Gao Wen turned around and saw Fang Han dressed casually, looking clean and neat. He was holding his phone, facing the rising warm sun, and walking towards her with a bright and sincere smile: "I just arrived."
Gao Wen had no knowledge of Fang Han's family background, but she always felt that even if his family wasn't very well-off, he must have been born into a harmonious and loving family, had a smooth and successful life, and was content with his life.
Only in this way could he have developed such a gentle, friendly, sunny, cheerful, humble, and polite personality.
For her, being with such a sincere, warm, gentle, and harmless person makes her feel inexplicably relaxed.
"Have you had breakfast?" Gao Wen smiled. "If not, I'll go buy you some. I can't let you work on an empty stomach."
"I ate." Fang Han smiled and put away his phone.
“Then you’ll definitely have the energy to work.” Gao Wen handed him the two cardboard boxes in her hand.
"Give them all to me." Fang Han took them all and lifted them up easily.
Gao Wen didn't mince words and walked into the dormitory building with the remaining packages.
When she encountered the dormitory supervisor in the duty room, she stopped and said, "Auntie, my senior is here to help me move my things. I'm moving to a rental apartment."
"Moving out already?" The aunt peeked out. "It's good to rent a place. It saves you from having to rush out before dawn, and you can sleep in a little longer. Do you have a lot of stuff? Do you need any help?"
"No need, I've almost finished packing."
......
Fang Han watched as Gao Wen and the dormitory manager exchanged pleasantries. His gaze remained fixed on her, a faint smile playing on his lips.
She has a kind of magic; she gets along well with everyone and can always win people's favor with ease.
Fang Han followed Gao Wen to the dormitory. She opened the door and said, "I've been tidying up over the past few days, so it's a bit messy."
"It's quite tidy." Fang Han couldn't see any mess. His eyes swept around and looked at the desk, which was full of things but arranged the most neatly.
He guessed that was her location.
The next second, Gao Wen walked to the desk, looked at Fang Han and said, "This is my seat. These things haven't been packed yet; they need to be packed into cardboard boxes."
Fang Han guessed correctly. A smile appeared in his eyes as he opened the cardboard box: "Okay."
Gao Wen had classes in the afternoon, leaving them little time to move, so the two divided the work.
She packed, and he organized and packed.
The clothes had already been packed into Gao Wen's suitcase.
For the past three years, her dormitory has been her home, so it's full of clutter. Not to mention the three cardboard boxes, she's even used up the few cardboard boxes that Gao Wen had prepared in advance, as well as several large, neatly organized bags and two suitcases.
Looking at her overflowing luggage, Gao Wen realized it truly felt like moving house.
Exhausted, she sat down in a chair and answered the phone: "Hello, Master."
With so much luggage, you'll naturally need to hire a moving company; one Lalamove truck will suffice.
Gao Wen said into the phone, "If you drive to the dormitory building, I'll give you extra money. Could you come upstairs and help me carry my luggage down?"
After agreeing readily on the other end, Gao Wen hung up the phone. Seeing Fang Han looking at her, she smiled and said, "With so much luggage, you don't really think I'm going to use you as a free laborer, do you?"
"I am very humane."
Fang Han lowered his eyes and smiled: "Actually, it's fine, I don't mind."
Gao Wen: "It's too hard, I don't want to."
The truck driver arrived quickly. He was a professional in this line of work; he could carry two boxes and two bags at a time, saying as he did so, "You don't need to carry them. Just wait for me downstairs. It'll only take a few trips."
Gao Wen and Fang Han still helped carry it twice.
When she went downstairs for the last time, Gao Wen handed a stack of materials to the dormitory supervisor: "These are the materials I used to tutor the children. They have been summarized and organized so that Shishi can use them."
"You've already done a great job tutoring her for free. You have so many things to do right now, and it's troublesome for you to spend time organizing the materials," the dormitory supervisor said thank you.
"It didn't take much time, and it's good that it can help her a little." After Gao Wen finished speaking, she remembered something and quickly handed the bag in her hand to Fang Han, "Hold this for me, I forgot to bring my charging cable."
This is a big deal!
"Mmm." Fang Han reached out and took it. He watched Gao Wen's jogging figure, and after she went upstairs, his gaze fell on the stack of carefully sorted and labeled documents in the dormitory supervisor's hand.
The dormitory supervisor also looked at Fang Han, scrutinizing him from head to toe.
Fang Han responded with a polite smile.
The dormitory supervisor suddenly smiled and asked, "Are you Xiaowen's boyfriend?"
