When Little Yichen heard this, he ran over to take a peek as well. In the end, what he saw almost gave him a nosebleed.
“That’s so dashing!” The child’s eyes sparkled. “It’s a good thing Mommy can’t see. Otherwise, she’d be smitten for sure!”
“Are you exaggerating?”
“You don’t understand!” Little Yichen was a little condescending. “Girls can’t resist men with good figures!”
Youyou was flabbergasted to hear this.
Is that really so?!
Hence, at 8pm, Little Yichen and Youyou came to the gym in the basement.
This time, it was Mu Yazhe’s turn to be dumbfounded.
“What are you guys doing here?”
“We’re here to work out!” Youyou said seriously. “I want to work out too!”
Mu Yazhe muttered sullenly, “You’re only seven. What has working out got to do with you?”
Youyou retorted, “Then why did Daddy build such a gym for no apparent reason and work out so energetically every day?”
Mu Yazhe’s looked awkward. He cleared his throat uneasily but did not answer them.
Youyou found this even stranger.
Little Yichen too, found it very odd. “Daddy, you’re being very suspicious! You have such a good figure, yet it’s not as though Mommy can see it. Why are you working so hard at the gym?”
Mu Yazhe said seriously, “I have insomnia at night, so exercise helps me sleep.”
“Insomnia?”
Youyou gave him a strange stare and rubbed his chin. “Why are you suffering from insomnia for no reason? It’s so strange.”
“…”
Mu Yazhe’s expression darkened further. “Since when did you start taking an interest in me? You’re the weird one.”
Youyou looked embarrassed for a moment.
Uh…
Of course, he would not tell the truth that he was envious of, and looked up to, Mu Yazhe for keeping such a trim figure and wanted to train as well.
In addition, Little Yichen had been going on and on about how working out could make the body healthier and more resistant, and how the metabolism of working out would promote physical development.
So this compelled him even further.
“Because… I think Daddy is behaving very suspiciously! Daddy never used to work out.”
Mu Yazhe studied Youyou for a few minutes. He could see the burning desire in his eyes!
This guy!
Youyou felt somewhat guilty under his stare.
At the side, Little Yichen immediately explained, “After Daddy started working out, your physique has become so amazing! So… Hehe! Youyou and I are very envious and want to work out with Daddy!”
“For a start, go run on the treadmill for forty minutes.” Mu Yazhe pointed at the treadmill and instructed.
“Forty minutes?!” Youyou immediately had the notion of giving up. “Forty minutes is going to kill me!”
“How do you know you can’t do it if you haven’t tried? The first thirty minutes of the run will burn up your carbohydrates. It will take 40 minutes to drain the excess fat.”
After a pause, he continued, “Running helps to improve your stamina. Training starts with running.”
Youyou and Little Yichen glanced at each other before reluctantly getting onto the treadmill and starting to run.
Half a month later, the effect was obvious.
Hua Jin noticed that the father-son trio would disappear together at 8pm every day. Later, he did some snooping around and discovered their shocking secret!
These guys were actually training in the gym!
What made him even more depressed was that after exercising, Mu Yazhe’s physique had shaped up so extraordinarily well that he seemed to be bursting with hormones!
