After the Divorce, I Unlocked a Perfect Life

Chapter 130: Chapter 108: Giving My Life to the Author as Material (Part 2)

The two of them started at the same time. After three consecutive sets, Qin Yangyang was already getting winded, but Lin Jiang was still perfectly composed.

This was all thanks to his increased Physique; otherwise, he wouldn’t have been able to keep up like this.

"Maybe I’m just exceptionally talented. You should train with me from now on."

"Why don’t you worry about getting your own body fat down to 8% first," Qin Yangyang said, refusing to back down.

"We already made a deal. If you can’t get down to 8%, you’ll be racking my weights for me from now on."

"Then you’d better get ready to start racking."

"Hmph."

Qin Yangyang’s breathing had become ragged. She planned to take a break after finishing this set.

"Yangyang, how about we make a bet?" Shen Yuanhang chimed in.

"My body fat is at 22% right now. I’m planning to get it down to 8% within three months. If I succeed, how about we go out for dinner?"

"I don’t have ti—"

"Getting body fat like yours down to 8% isn’t going to be easy," Lin Jiang said, cutting Qin Yangyang off.

Shen Yuanhang shot him a disdainful glance.

"We’re not the same. Besides a professional coach, I’m also hiring a nutritionist to monitor my diet 24/7. Getting my body fat down to 8% will be no problem at all."

Zheng Huiting, who was standing nearby, was left speechless and discreetly rolled her eyes.

’But she found it strange. Why did Shen Yuanhang sound so obnoxious saying things like that, while Lin Jiang didn’t?’

’Is it because he’s better looking?’

"You won’t even need three months. With my professional guidance and a proper diet, you can do it in two," the jacked-up coach said.

"That’s what I was thinking, too."

Shen Yuanhang looked down his nose at Lin Jiang, clearly not taking him seriously.

"We’re not in the same league. Don’t compare us."

"But I get to work out with Qin Yangyang. Can you? We even get to eat together. Can you?"

Shen Yuanhang: "..."

’You’ve fucking crossed the line!’

Lin Jiang draped his arm over Qin Yangyang’s shoulder. "We can even do this. Can you?"

Qin Yangyang was inwardly ecstatic.

She had experienced Lin Jiang’s talent for pissing people off firsthand.

He could even come up with a description like "adorably tough." An ordinary person couldn’t pull that off.

"Get your hand off her! Don’t you put your arm around Yangyang."

"I’m just trying to show you that, like fitness, you can’t win a woman over just by having money."

To slay this mob, Lin Jiang began to sharpen his blades.

"I’ll admit, you and Yangyang are close. I can’t compete there. But fitness is a different story. I have professional equipment and a coach. Do you?"

Shen Yuanhang sized up Lin Jiang. "Looking at your gear, it’s obvious you’re no pro. If you weren’t mooching off Yangyang’s session, you probably couldn’t even get in here, could you?"

"Thinking a bit small, aren’t you? This stuff is all about talent. Even without a personal trainer, I can get my body fat down to 8%."

"Oh-ho? Sounds like you don’t agree. Why don’t we compete, then? We’ll see who can lose more body fat within a set time frame."

Shen Yuanhang looked at Lin Jiang. "If I win, you stop working out with Yangyang, and you stay out of this gym for good."

’Just as I thought, a mob with zero intelligence.’

’A piece of trash this weak... even a Holy Paladin could probably kill it just by bashing it with their shield.’

Lin Jiang figured he was just some low-IQ mob, probably unrelated to the actual Boss who was bound to show up later.

"Then it’s a deal," Lin Jiang said. "If I win, you stay away from her and never show your face in this gym again."

"Deal."

"No way!" Qin Yangyang immediately protested.

"Don’t think I can’t see what you’re up to. Lin Jiang’s body fat is 16% and yours is 22%. Within the same time frame, his rate of fat loss will definitely be slower than yours."

"That’s fine. I can get down to 16% first, and we can start the competition then. That’ll be more convincing, so he’ll have no excuses when he loses."

"No need for that," Lin Jiang said. "I don’t need the handicap."

"And we don’t need to drag this out. The day after tomorrow, same time, we’ll measure our body fat. Whoever’s lost more wins."

"You said it. Don’t go back on your word."

Since Lin Jiang had given him this opportunity, Shen Yuanhang certainly wasn’t going to pass it up.

’Only a fucking idiot would care about being fair. You take every advantage you can get.’

"I’ll keep my word. But either way, you’re the one with the advantage here, so you shouldn’t train here today. Go wander around some other area. I’d be at a disadvantage if you stole my training methods."

"You? You have training methods?" Shen Yuanhang scoffed. "Don’t worry, I wouldn’t use them even if you paid me. We’ll measure our body fat the day after tomorrow. The loser gets lost."

"Don’t let the door hit you on your way out."

After Shen Yuanhang left, the jacked-up coach glanced at Lin Jiang.

"Hey man, give it your all. I’m rooting for you."

With that, the jacked-up coach also walked away.

’If Lin Jiang really wins, Shen Yuanhang will have to leave.’

’According to the gym’s policy, if he stops showing up for his sessions, even if he cancels his membership, there’s a hefty cancellation fee. I’ll get a nice cut of that for free. Pretty sweet.’

"I got rid of him. Let’s get back to our workout."

Qin Yangyang and Zheng Huiting both looked at Lin Jiang. Qin Yangyang spoke first.

"You got rid of him, sure, but are you really sure you can beat him the day after tomorrow?"

"You wouldn’t believe me if I said I could win, would you?"

Qin Yangyang nodded.

"That’s why I said he’s an idiot. He doesn’t even know how to make a proper bet. I was just here to check the place out, anyway. So what if I don’t show up at the gym again? It makes no difference to you."

[You have outsmarted a foolish mob. Comprehension +1]

Hearing Lin Jiang’s explanation, it finally dawned on Qin Yangyang that he was right.

Lin Jiang never had any plans to work out with her in the first place; they had just run into each other by chance today.

’Even if he lost, it wouldn’t matter. Things would just go back to how they were before.’

"You’re such a schemer."

"It’s not that I’m a schemer, it’s just that he’s an idiot. It’s like he doesn’t even have a brain."
