Chapter 38 Weight Loss Goal

"What phone are you planning to get for Lingyu?"

"The latest and most expensive one obviously . . . "

"That's the iPhone 5, right? It's over five thousand dollars!"

"Where can I buy one? Let's stop wandering around and head there now…"

Noting Ling Yun's lack of hesitation, Tang Meng was a little surprised .

Ling Yun's shamelessness when it came to money was unparalleled, so much so that it never failed to shock the people around him . The way he handled money, especially when taking it from others, was as skillful as a basketball star s.n.a.t.c.hing the ball under the hoop after a rebound .

This showed how obsessed he was with money .

However, when it came to getting his sister a new phone, he requested for the most expensive one without batting an eyelash .

This guy… Tang Meng shook his head, confused, as he caught up with Ling Yun .

After purchasing the iPhone 5 for his sister, Ling Yun was satisfied . He didn't get one for himself since he felt that he didn't need one . Money was hard to come by and every cent mattered .

Tang Meng exited the shop with another item in his hand . Of course, it was the iPhone 5 that Ling Yun had bought for his sister .

"Where to next?"

"To purchase sportswear and sports shoes . "

Tang Meng was familiar with this, leading Ling Yun to the Nike store . However, after glancing at the price of the items, Ling Yun turned around and left .

"What's wrong?" Tang Meng asked, rus.h.i.+ng out of the store .

"Too expensive…"

Tang Meng rolled his eyes . Ling Yun hadn't even hesitated when purchasing the five thousand dollars iPhone 5 . Yet, he left immediately after checking out the prices from the Nike store .

"Is Li Ning okay then?" Tang Meng suggested .

"How much is that roughly?"

"You can get two pairs for the price of one pair of Nike . If that's expensive, we might as well buy from the street vendors then…"

In Tang Meng's eyes, it was either the branded goods or the street vendors .

Eventually, Ling Yun bought two pairs of shoes and two sets of clothes, spending about three thousand dollars . Although he wanted to save money, he didn't want to sacrifice comfort . After all, for the next two months, he was going to go all out in his physique tempering . Thus, the comfort of his shoes was of paramount importance .

After purchasing the goods, Tang Meng glanced at the bags in his hands and was speechless . He thought to himself, Zhao Lei did all my errands for me . Now, I have to do all the errands…

Should've brought Zhao Lei along…

"Come, let's head to the sporting goods store…" Ling Yun said .

Tang Meng stopped walking and asked, "Boss, can I ask you a question?"

"What?" Ling Yun replied .

"What do you want to buy at the sporting goods store?"

"You saw it before, the sandbag that I carried while running earlier today…"

"Boss, I really need to go the washroom…" Tang Meng murmured .

"Hold it in…"

The first self-revision night cla.s.s ended .

"Shanshan, I really ate too much, want to accompany me to the washroom?"

"Shanshan… Shanshan!"

There was no response from Cao Shanshan even after being called twice . Surprised, Zhang Ling turned her head and saw Cao Shanshan in a daze, staring at a test paper .

Go back!

Go back and take care of the three of them . There's no need for a girl to be here!

These two sentences, coupled with the scene where Ling Yun grabbed her arm, asking her to go back, played on repeat in Cao Shanshan's head . Before she knew it, the cla.s.s ended .

Are you still that weak and cowardly fatty?

Are you still that useless guy that everyone bullies?

How dare he grab my arm!

Why did he skip cla.s.s again?

Is buying things so important? Tomorrow's a Sat.u.r.day, can't he buy it then?

Zhang Ling is right, he actually isn't that bad-looking . He would look perfect if he was a little slimmer .

His dimples are so cute!

How did he manage to dodge Tu Gang's strike?

How dare Zhang Ling hug his arm, it makes me so angry . . .

"Shanshan, Shanshan!"

Chao Shanshan's expressions flitted between anger and shame, which surprised Zhang Ling since this rarely happened .

Zhang Ling crept up next to Cao Shanshan's ear and shouted, "Hey!"

"Ah!"

Cao Shanshan had a huge shock, quickly turning her head and saying, "What… What's up Zhang Ling?"

"Nothing much, I thought your soul had disappeared…" Zhang Ling replied, giggling playfully to herself .

Cao Shanshan's beautiful face turned red with embarra.s.sment . Biting her lower lips, she said, "What rubbish are you spouting?"

"What rubbish? For the whole lesson, you have been staring at your test paper that got full marks, looking as if your soul has left your body…"

"Speak! Who are you thinking of?" Zhang Ling chuckled .

"What are you talking about…? I'm not thinking of anyone!" Cao Shanshan replied with her head bowed in embarra.s.sment, not daring to look Zhang Ling in the eyes .

"You're starting to like Ling Yun right?" Zhang Ling whispered into Cao Shanshan's ears, giggling .

"Go away, you're the one who likes Ling Yun! I'm not the one who was pressing her body on his arm!" Cao Shanshan replied with conviction .

"Of course . Don't you think that Ling Yun of today, although a little fat and a little boring, has been super handsome? Plus, he's starting to run in order to lose weight!"

As Zhang Ling recalled Ling Yun's actions, her face was filled with adoration .

"A little fat? He is so petty, so greedy for money, so shameless, so arrogant…"

Cao Shanshan spat out Ling Yun's bad points in one breath .

Zhang Ling looked at Cao Shanshan as if she had just seen a monster, waiting for Cao Shanshan to finish talking before she started her reb.u.t.tal .

"A petty man understands how to live life, a greedy man won't waste his money . Fine, I admit Ling Yun is a little shameless . But, he is shameless to the extent that he becomes cute . I don't think he lost anything from today as well . Don't you think so?"

At this point, Cao Shanshan knew that she had lost to Zhang Ling . She looked at Zhang Ling with a face of pity and said, "You're a goner, you no longer view people normally…"

Zhang Ling smiled and shook her head . She replied, "Missy, you're in living in a honeypot . For ordinary people, which woman would want her man to spend money lavishly? Look at the limited edition Louis Vuitton bag that you're carrying right now, it costs at least ten thousand dollars, right? Compare that to what Ling Yun wears to school . You still think that he is wrong to be petty? Wrong to be greedy?"

Cao Shanshan was stunned, unable to utter a word .

"Forget it . Anyway, you are from a different world, you won't understand what I'm saying… I'm going to the washroom, want to come along?"

"Are we . . . really not from the same world?" Cao Shanshan felt a little unsettled, staring at Zhang Ling as she left the room .

As this was happening, Ling Yun and Tang Meng were walking around the sporting goods store and started talking about Cao Shanshan's bag .

"Tang Meng, during dinner, I noticed that Cao Shanshan and Zhang Ling were carrying bags . What's happening?"

Tang Meng was taken aback, thinking, You fat pervert, do you need to ask these kinds of questions?

He glanced at Ling Yun stupidly and replied, "Nowadays, which woman doesn't carry a bag out? Don't belittle its small size, it serves many purposes . It is needed to carry the many things that women use…"

"Then why isn't Ning Lingyu carrying one?" Ling Yun asked .

"About that…" Tang Meng uttered as he thought to himself, You can't possibly expect me to tell you that your family is too poor to afford one, right?

"Maybe Ning Linyu thinks it's too troublesome…" Tang Meng racked his brains to come up with an excuse .

Without batting an eyelid, Ling Yun asked, "How much does Cao Shanshan's bag cost?"

Since Ling Yun straight up questioned Tang Meng, he acted casually and replied, "Those aren't for normal people . Roughly seventeen to eighteen thousand, I'm not too sure either . "

Ling Yun was momentarily stunned when he heard seventeen to eighteen thousand .

Cao Shanshan's family really is filthy rich!

Ling Yun bought his sporting goods and declined the delivery service that the store kindly offered . Carrying his things on his shoulder, he headed back to the school hostel with Tang Meng .

Seeing that Ling Yun didn't ask him to carry the sandbag, Tang Meng heaved a sigh of relief . Out of curiosity, he asked Ling Yun, "I'm guessing you're serious about losing weight? You just spent over a thousand dollars on these items . "

Everyone thought that Ling Yun had carried that sandbag in the afternoon in order to lose weight . In fact, Ling Yun was doing it for his physique tempering . Weight loss was just part of the process .

Within an hour, Ling Yun had spent half of what he had gotten off beating up people . He couldn't help but sigh to himself as money slowly became an issue .

He nodded his head and said, "Why would I buy all this stuff if I don't plan on losing weight?"

Tang Meng took a quick look at Ling Yun's body and replied, "How much are you planning to lose?"

"How heavy are you?"

"78kg, perfect build, the epitome of a hunk, Jiangnan style . . . " Tang Meng replied proudly, shaking his long hair .

Ling Yun did a quick comparison between the two of them in his head . We are roughly the same height . If my Physique Tempering Stage reaches Level 7, our body builds will roughly be the same… he thought .

Ling Yun replied indifferently, "I'll lose till I'm 7 to 8 kg lighter than you…"

"7 to 8 kg lighter than me? What! You want to become 70 kg?!"

Tang Meng looked at him in disbelief . He touched Ling Yun's belly and said, "Looking at your shape, you're at least 105 kg . If you're going to cut till 70 kg, won't your loose skin drop all the way to the ground?"

Without replying Tang Meng, Ling Yun pushed his hand away in annoyance .

If it was a normal person who was losing so much weight within a short time, they would definitely run into the problem Tang Meng had pointed out . However, this would not happen to Ling Yun .

If he continued to use s.h.i.+chiyou Herb's spiritual energy to nourish his body, his skin would only become more clear and compact, full of tension and flexibility . It would definitely not sag as Tang Meng pointed out!

"Why don't you wait until the end of finals before you start losing weight? Why now?"

Ling Yun thought to himself . If I wait till after finals, my precious s.h.i.+chiyou Herb would be completely wasted . I'll train until I reach my peak strength before the s.h.i.+chiyou Herb matures, even if it means skipping my exams .

Compared to raising his Physique Tempering Level, these non-essential examinations meant nothing to Ling Yun .

Since Ling Yun and Tang Meng were both tall, their strides were naturally wider and they arrived at the hostel within twenty minutes .

Looking at Ling Yun climbing the stairs effortlessly while carrying the sandbag, Tang Meng recalled the ease with which Ling Yun defeated Tu Gang . "In the afternoon, you carried a sandbag while running for such a long time, why do you seem perfectly normal? You didn't eat any stimulants, did you?" Tang Meng asked with a puzzled look on his face .

Ling Yun had become annoyed by Tang Meng's endless questions . He frowned and replied, "You're even more talkative than Zhang Ling! Hurry up, I still need to shower and change out of this!"

Ling Yun definitely needed to change into his new sportswear and sports shoes, as he planned to run with the sandbag later that night .
