Chapter 258: 76. Pain? If it hurts, that’s right!

"Creak... creak..."

While Yan Huan was strenuously doing high pulldowns, Tong Yingying, watching him from behind with chin cupped in hand, yawned.

After finishing a set, Yan Huan turned his head to look at Tong Yingying, who then lifted her eyes and said,

"Is that it?"

"..."

Yan Huan maintained a smile, but a vein popped on his sweaty forehead,

"Sister Tong, I don’t know why, but being mocked by someone like you who smokes and drinks all day, it doesn’t make me happy at all."

Unphased by his words, Tong Yingying flipped her lighter with her fingers, a faint flame appeared and extinguished instantly,

"I may walk a different path, but I’m quite familiar with fitness... You’re supposed to be completely spent after each set, right? You clearly still have energy left, why stop now?"

Yan Huan was slightly startled, walked back to Tong Yingying and asked doubtfully,

"Really? You understand this stuff?"

Tong Yingying glanced at him with weary eyes, didn’t explain, but declared dominantly,

"Heh, I’ll be your coach. In the end, you’ll see if it works out or not."

"... Eh."

Yan Huan was sceptical but began to explain why he didn’t push himself to complete exhaustion,

"Actually, Sister Tong, my body is pretty special. If I work out to exhaustion, I’ll be in a lot of pain the next day."

Damn that curse!

Currently in his Naked Clothing state, he had enough of a physical boost to overaccomplish his training.

But the price to pay for this was an explosive pain the next day when he put on clothes.

Thus, in the end, Yan Huan didn’t seek ultimate efficiency and chose to go slow and steady.

"Eh~"

However, upon hearing this, Tong Yingying seemed purposefully to poke her finger at his slightly bulked-up back muscles due to the workout.

Sure enough, he felt a twinge of pain the next second, which earned her a glare from him.

Seeing his reaction, she showed a slightly surprised expression, really realizing Yan Huan experienced immediate pain when exercising,

"Are you prone to pain, a sensitive physique?"

"... No, not at all."

Instead of backing off, she wore an unreadable smile and provocatively crossed one of her long legs over the other.

Today, Tong Yingying wasn’t in jeans; as if to match the gym environment, she wore a navel-revealing sport outfit.

As a result, when she did that, Yan Huan instantly spotted her shapely calves and pale ankles.

Just a glance, and Yan Huan froze, not immediately shifting his gaze.

Noticing Yan Huan’s eyes on her legs, Tong Yingying paused and looked at her own legs.

Soon after, she provocatively lifted the leg she was about to cross even higher, her interest piqued as she asked,

"Yan Huan, I didn’t see that coming... you like girls’ legs?"

"Ah?"

Yan Huan looked away to Tong Yingying, just in time to see her sorrowful eyes twinkle with amusement,

"Little pervert."

"..."

Yan Huan blinked and simply replied,

"... I just thought your legs looked nice. Sister Tong, have you really worked out?"

Indeed, Yan Huan glanced at Tong Yingying’s calves because they were... no, even her overall figure was attractive and seemed well-toned.

Usually concealed by thick jeans, it was only now that Yan Huan noticed that her figure was far from the bloated look of a shut-in.

Yet for some reason, Yan Huan found the way Tong Yingying propped up her leg to be strangely alluring.

Looking at the shape of the legs was genuine, and so was the admiration.

"Really?"

She looked at Yan Huan, questioning his previous remark with uncertainty.

But the fleeting feeling of being captivated by Tong Yingying rushed through Yan Huan, propelling him into self-analysis.

Was he really that hungry?

To actually feel this way about Sister Tong...

He had always considered Sister Tong as an elder!

Sure, she did look pretty in terms of appearance...

And sure, she was a bit tempting just now...

And sure, in terms of personality, Sister Tong...

At this thought, a flurry of past images where Tong Yingying brandished a stun gun, docked his pay, or laid drunk on the bed, smoking and smacking his head, instantly flooded Yan Huan’s mind.

"Truly, Sister Tong, truer than pearls!"

He shuddered, managed a forced smile, stood up, and pointed to a piece of equipment,

"Rested enough, I’m moving on to the next set."

Tong Yingying watched him with her arms folded, pulling her long legs back, her initially excited eyes returning to their usual doldrums.

She waved dismissively,

"Tch... go on then, train well, I’m off to the restroom."

"Understood, Sister Tong."

Tong Yingying with hands in pockets, walked towards the VIP area’s restrooms in the gym, while Yan Huan moved back in front of the machine and gripped the bar.

"Creak..."

The sound of the equipment moving resonated, weaving through Yan Huan’s thoughts like a shuttle.

In his mind, Tong Yingying’s beautiful legs seemed to take the spot that was supposed to be reserved for pain, causing him to wonder.

I didn’t choose the ’Reproduction’ bonus on Sunday, did I?

Why did I feel overwhelmed facing Spencer, and now even Sister Tong...

Could it be?

"Miao."

"Meow?"

The illusory Miao appeared on the steel frame of the equipment, gazing at Yan Huan with confusion.

Yan Huan lifted his head, a droplet of sweat sliding down his handsome face,

"Miao, you didn’t secretly give me some kind of reproduction-related talent shard, did you?"
