Chapter 73 Morning Run



The next morning, Cheng Yuesheng struggled to get up at the sound of the alarm clock. She hadn't gotten up so early in a long time. Before, she usually only got up when Qin Heque went out.

After she dressed and walked out of the room, she found Qin Heque already waiting for her in the living room.

"Good morning." She said good morning to him with a smile.

Although she knew that Qin Heque had always had the habit of exercising, this was the first time she saw Qin Heque wearing sportswear and a sports headscarf. He no longer had the sense of distance that he had when he was in a suit and tie, and he looked refreshed.

At this moment, he was sitting on the sofa in the living room. The morning light fell on him, making his originally somewhat cold facial features become brighter.

"You're up now. Come drink some milk. We'll go down for a morning run soon."

Hearing his words, Cheng Yuesheng responded, "Okay."

Then he hurried over and drank the milk that Qin Heque had prepared in advance.

"Don't you want to drink?" she asked, looking at the empty coffee table in front of Qin Heque.

Qin Heque shook his head and said, "I'm used to exercising on an empty stomach. After we finish drinking, we'll get ready to go down."

He stood up and waited for Cheng Yuesheng.

Cheng Yuesheng didn't let him wait too long. He quickly finished the milk in the cup and the two of them went out together.

It is still early and there are almost no pedestrians downstairs in the community, only a few people who come here to exercise like them.

"Let's run around here first, and you follow me." Qin Heque's hand roughly drew the direction in the air.

"Yeah." Cheng Yuesheng nodded.

The two of them quickly started running.

Qin Heque ran beside Cheng Yuesheng, paying attention to Cheng Yuesheng's running condition.

She had hardly ever exercised before, and her breathing became disordered after just a few minutes of running.

She felt a little breathless, her throat was burning, and she felt a slight pain on one side of her abdomen, the same feeling she had when she ran 800 meters in physical education class.

But that was an 800-meter run, and she had only just run a short distance when this happened.

"Listen to my commands, exhale, inhale, exhale, inhale..." Qin Heque had noticed that something was wrong with her.

Cheng Yuesheng followed Qin Heque's instructions, controlling his breathing while running.

After a few minutes, she gradually felt better.

However, her legs were already starting to ache, and her steps gradually slowed down.

She panted and said, "I, I can't run anymore..."

Although she didn't like running before, she never felt that running was such a torture for her.

"You haven't even finished half the distance, and you're going to give up?" The doctor said that proper exercise is good for Cheng Yuesheng's body. Qin Heque didn't want her to give up so easily.

And he felt that she would regret it after giving up.

Cheng Yuesheng thought about his current poor health, and a hint of stubbornness flashed in his eyes, "I can hold on."

Sweat had soaked the strands of hair on her forehead, and her gait became heavy, but she still moved forward.

Qin Heque had a hint of pity in his eyes, but he continued, "Then listen to my instructions and breathe. This way you will feel more comfortable when running."

"good."

The two of them ran forward for a while. Qin Heque asked her to run for three to five minutes each time, and then asked her to walk for a while. This went back and forth three or four times.

Qin Heque didn't let her stop until she ran to a bench.

Cheng Yuesheng sat down on the bench without thinking, but was grabbed by Qin Heque and pulled up.

"You can't sit down now. Stand for a while." He supported Cheng Yuesheng's soft and weak body.

"Okay." Cheng Yuesheng held his knees with both hands and gasped for breath.

Qin Heque couldn't see her face, so seeing this, he squatted down and looked up at her.

Her cheeks were swollen and stained a pink peach, and her hair was stuck to her sweaty face.

Qin Heque reached out and brushed her hair aside without thinking.

Caught off guard, Cheng Yuesheng saw his handsome face appear in front of her. Before she could even startle, she felt a little embarrassed by his somewhat intimate behavior. After all, her face was covered in sweat and she was panting. She looked very embarrassed, but she didn't have the extra energy to stop him at the moment.

"Are you okay?" Qin Heque asked with a worried look.

Cheng Yuesheng nodded.

Cheng Yuesheng didn’t know if it was because he had just stopped running, but he felt his heart beating very fast.

"Have a drink of water." Qin Heque produced a bottle of water from somewhere.

Cheng Yuesheng took it without thinking and took a big gulp.

"Drink slowly." Qin Heque accidentally noticed that she had drunk half a bottle.

After Cheng Yuesheng finished drinking the water, he asked, "Where did you get the water?"

"Brought it down."

"I forgot to bring water."

"Wipe your sweat." He handed the towel to Cheng Yuesheng.

She took the towel and wiped the sweat from her face.

What I was thinking in my heart was that Qin Heque was indeed very careful and had prepared everything very thoughtfully.

Qin Heque saw that he had almost rested and said, "Now that you've rested, let's continue."

"Ah, do you want to run more?" She felt that she had run almost enough.

"You've only run halfway. You have to run two kilometers today." Generally, novices will run three to five kilometers, but Cheng Yuesheng is weak, and Qin Heque does not have high requirements for her. The training goals he arranged are also very cautious. If she can run two kilometers, she will meet the standard.

"I've been running for so long, but I haven't even run two kilometers yet?" Cheng Yuesheng's eyes widened. He thought he had run at least two or three kilometers, but he didn't expect that he had only run one kilometer. The gap between him and what he imagined was too big.

"Your physical fitness is too poor, and you've been walking most of the way," Qin Heque explained, and then encouraged her softly, "You've never been in good health, so it's amazing that you've made it this far. Now you're only halfway there, just hold on a little longer and you'll be fine."

Cheng Yuesheng looked at him with encouraging eyes, nodded vigorously, and said in a voice full of fighting spirit: "Then let's run quickly."

"Don't be in a hurry, let's just take it slow at the same pace as before." Qin Heque couldn't help but smile as he looked at her high morale.

"Okay, I'll do as you say." She agreed meekly.

The morning jog seemed a bit painful and long to Cheng Yuesheng. However, following Qin Heque's instructions, she persevered and finished the run.

"You can't stop, keep walking and rest." Qin Heque knew she was very tired. He looked at Cheng Yuesheng's cheeks, which had turned red due to congestion, and comforted her, "Look, you've finished running now. Our Shengsheng is really great."

His tone was gentle, as if he was coaxing a child.

If it weren't for the rise in body temperature after exercise, Cheng Yuesheng would definitely be hot all over by his gentleness.

Fortunately, her heart was beating violently after exercise, which helped her hide her true feelings at the moment.

"Okay, come here and stretch."

Cheng Yuesheng did as he was told.
