Chapter 47: Sleepless (Part 1)
There are many international first-line clothing brands on the fourth floor of Canterlot, and for girls like Yan Wei and Yang Yalin, who are from ordinary families, they have basically never bought clothes here.
Along the way, the two of them were very happy, and every time they went to a store, they kept trying on clothes one after another as if they were going to live in it.
Shen Jingyuan silently followed behind them, watching absent-mindedly and casually. I couldn't help but think of Tong Xia's figure in my mind, she had already picked out a set of skirts a few minutes ago and went back first, did she go to find Chen Yuan?
Gu Yan also seems to have little interest in shopping and choosing clothes. She followed a little farther away, occasionally humming a few words in a whisper, most of the time in a daze.
It didn't take long for Yang Bin to run up, perfectly execute her boyfriend's physical tasks, and constantly praise his goddess.
Later, after visiting a store with a relatively niche brand, Yan Wei and Yang Yalin pulled Shen Jingyuan and Gu Yan in. The two of them chose several outfits with great interest, saying that they wanted to choose one outfit as their sisters.
The four girls chattered in the fitting room, and the sound of frolicking gradually came out.
"Yuanyuan, your figure is too good!"
"Really, oversized. ”
"What ......?"
"Wow!"
"I'm so envious!"
"Oh, it's so itchy! Don't make a fuss!
After a while, the fitting room slowly fell silent.
"No, it's too big to tie here. ”
"Okay......"
"Then let's wear this cute T-shirt. ”
Someone couldn't help but giggle.
"Why are you laughing so obscenely? ”
"No, I'm just curious about what effect Yuanyuan will have when she wears this, I feel that with her figure, no matter how cute the clothes are, she can wear the style of a sexy queen!"
"Hahaha, it seems to be. ”
“……”
In the end, the four of them chose a simple T-shirt and jeans combination. It is both aesthetically pleasing and ensures smooth and smooth movement.
On the way back to the sixth floor, Shen Jingyuan saw a lot of clothes that Chen Yuanhui liked very much. Remembering that she was showing him that leopard print suit with a red face in the nine dormitory buildings, she suddenly felt a little nostalgic for some reason. Perhaps, that time may never be the same again.
She smiled and shook her head.
After dinner, Chen Yuan sat on the massage chair and thought about what happened in the afternoon.
"Now, are you still willing to have me?"
Tong Xia's words seem to still echo in his ears now.
Faced with such a question, if it was Chen Yuan in the past, or any other man, they might not have any hesitation and directly agreed.
After all, a woman like Tong Xia, whether it is her appearance or figure, she is considered the best.
But Chen Yuan knew very well that he didn't have that kind of affection for Tong Xia, at least not yet. The love he once had for her may have been just the result of the hormonal agitation of puberty, and at that time, he might have preferred to just sleep with her.
He looked up at Canterlot's artful dome and exhaled softly.
"I'm sorry, Tong Xia. ”
Turn on the faucet, and the transparent water column flows to the pool.
Tong Xia reached out and picked up a puddle of water and gently patted it on her face.
Tears mixed in it, making her feel extra cold.
After washing like this for a while, she turned off the faucet and looked at herself in the mirror.
He was rejected like this.
Although he probably thought that this would be the result, he couldn't help but say everything in his heart to him.
"It's okay, I'll wait for you until the day you accept me. ”
She drained the droplets of water from her hands, combed her hair briefly, and then turned and walked out.
In order to ensure the safety of everyone, the six boys still took turns keeping vigil in groups of two.
At three o'clock in the morning, Chen Yuan replaced Yang Bin.
He stood on the left side of the third-floor escalator entrance, looking down through the glass guardrail. The lights in every part of Canterlot are particularly dazzling, and a lifeless sense of emptiness fills the entire area around it.
Staying here for a long time can easily give people the illusion that the world has been destroyed.
As he smoked his third cigarette, he saw a familiar figure of a girl coming down from the fourth floor.
"Why did you get down?"
Chen Yuan looked at her with some surprise.
Shen Jingyuan rubbed her sleepy eyes, and said softly, "I don't know, I was going to go to the toilet, but I came here for no reason, it's really annoying." ”
Chen Yuan smiled, "Isn't your reason a little too fresh and refined?"
"Believe it or not. ”
"Are you going then?"
Shen Jingyuan crossed her hands and leaned on the glass guardrail, "I want to stay here for a while." ”
"Okay. ”
Chen Yuan spit out a smoke ring, and the two of them stood silently with each other.
There was silence in the air.
"Chen Yuan. ”
"Huh?"
"Can we really get out of here?"
"Of course. ”
Shen Jingyuan looked at him with her arms pillowed, "Don't lie to me." ”
"I kid you not. ”
Shen Jingyuan showed a sweet smile, "Then, when we escape, I'll ......"
It seemed that something suddenly came to mind, and she didn't continue to say the rest of the sentence.
Chen Yuan looked at her with a curious expression, "What?"
Shen Jingyuan shook her head, "Well, it's nothing. She leaned on the glass railing to straighten up, "I won't tell you, good night." With her hands behind her back, she turned and walked up the escalator.
Chen Yuan stopped her, "Hey, you're going to finish your words, it's very uncomfortable to have half a sentence left!"
Shen Jingyuan stopped and didn't look back, "Then, when we really escape, I'll tell you." ”
……
In the afternoon of the next day, Chen Yuan took advantage of the rest time to run to the gym on the fifth floor alone.
This store seems to be a very famous chain brand. The environment inside is very nice, and there are high-end quality gym equipment everywhere. Chen Yuan was visiting this kind of place for the first time, and he recalled the popular science posts he had seen on the Internet, and then found the dumbbell area.
All kinds of dumbbells were neatly placed on the table, Chen Yuan thought about it and decided to start the test with the lightest dumbbells.
He hadn't made a careful comparison since that physical change. If memory serves, he bought a pair of 2.5kg dumbbells, which seemed like he was just starting in college, and he insisted on using them every day to exercise his arms.
He picked up a 2.5kg dumbbell and held it in his hand, which was light and completely free of any pressure. He put the dumbbell down and picked up another five-kilogram dumbbell, feeling some weight a little, but still no pressure.
Chen Yuan looked at the dumbbell in his hand and thought for a while, when he first started practicing dumbbells, he couldn't even bear the weight of 2.5 kilograms. Unexpectedly, now he doesn't feel the 5 kg dumbbells.
He tried 10 kilograms, 20 kilograms, and 30 kilograms of dumbbells in succession. The more he tried, the more shocked he became. Even at a weight of 30 kilograms, he can still make standard movements. Although the weight in the hand is obviously much stronger, it is still too exaggerated. Before his body changed, he should not be able to make a standard movement with even ten kilograms of dumbbells.
He put the dumbbells away, took a few deep breaths, and decided to try the bench press again. He remembers this very well, there is also the barbell equipment he bought online in the dormitory, and the weight he can bear is between 25 kilograms and 30 kilograms.
He first tried to adjust the barbell to 30 kilograms, it was very light and basically no pressure.
Subsequently, he began to use ten kilograms as a variable and kept adding weight to the barbell.
In this way, he adjusted the barbell all the way to eighty kilograms.
Chen Yuan's eyes widened and widened.
He put down the barbell in his hand in disbelief.
Bench press 80 kg. Although it is nothing for those fitness bigwigs, for people like Chen Yuan, who used to have a limit weight of even 30 kilograms of bench press, the meaning is completely different.
From bench press thirty kilograms to bench press eighty kilograms, his strength more than tripled. And that's not his limit weight, he feels like he can bench press more than a hundred kilograms if someone is next to him.
He sat on the bench press and thought calmly. How much his body has become stronger, it is now clear. But apart from the strength, has there been any other change that has also changed?
"Yo, you're there too?"
His thoughts were interrupted by a sudden male voice ringing in his ears.
Chen Yuan looked up at him, it was Wu Zhidong.
"Ah, I haven't practiced for a long time, let's try. ”
Wu Zhidong walked over, looked down at the weight of Chen Yuan's bench press, and then smiled disdainfully, "Eighty kilograms?" ”
Chen Yuan nodded, "About sixty-five." ”
"Then your strength is indeed very good. Wu Zhidong took a few steps to the side and continued in a tone that understood everything, "But strength alone is not enough, skill is more important." ”
He raised his hand and touched the sandbag in front of him, "Like this." He unleashed three combinations in one go, and the sandbag made a muffled sound of being hit by a hard object.
"Be quick and sharp, and then focus on the explosiveness. He held the sandbag steady with his hand, "If you can learn to use your legs, so much the better." ”
He jerked sideways and kicked out, and with a "bang-" sound, the sandbag swung backwards sharply.
"It's a side kick. With that, he secured the sandbag and kicked it out again.
"It's a horizontal kick. ”
"It's a swing kick. ”
"It's a back kick. ”
"It's a backspin kick. ”
"And this double fly kick, this whirlwind kick. ”
He continued to show off his excellent taekwondo skills in front of Chen Yuan like a show of skill.
Chen Yuan showed a calm expression and looked at him quietly and pretended to be forced, "Well, it's amazing." ”
Wu Zhidong smiled and patted Chen Yuan's shoulder, his tone full of superiority, "Of course, these things can't be learned all at once." Especially for the difficult actions in the back, talent is very important, and you need to look at your understanding. ”
Chen Yuan nodded in agreement.
"Then you can practice slowly, just start with the simplest basic movements. ”
After Wu Zhidong finished speaking, he turned around and swaggered out.
