Zhang Cheng had the resources.

Be it cohabitation, or just living through this world, etc. Zhang Cheng was sure that he could give his long-term serious girlfriends a good environment.

While the two of them sat in silence, the food was served.

While the pricing was terrifying, it could be completely justified by its appearance, smell, and taste.

This made Zhao Shengnan, who had the attributes of a foodie, twitch her nose twice, and her eyes could not help but glance at the food.

Zhang Cheng saw the opportunity, so he hurriedly advised Zhao Shengnan to eat first.

Although she was a little hesitant, Zhao Shengnan still began to eat. In the end, she could not stop until she was full.

It seemed that dating this guy wasn’t that bad?

Although Zhao Shengnan did not say it explicitly, how could Zhang Cheng not see it?

He sent Zhao Shengnan home.

When he got home, Xiang Xiang was watching TV. Over the past few days, Xiang Xiang had not gone to her dance classes or do yoga.

“You’re back?” Xiang Xiang noticed that Zhang Cheng was back and quickly went up to him.

Zhang Cheng felt a little guilty when he noticed the sorrow in Xiang Xiang’s eyes.

It seemed that Xiang Xiang could sense that he was seeing someone else outside.

After all, they were sleeping together. Although they had not been together for a long time and Zhang Cheng had not spent the night outside a few days ago, as long as she paid attention, she should be able to tell that something was off. Moreover, Zhang Cheng had never thought of hiding it.

Zhang Cheng held onto Xiang Xiang and sat back on the sofa to watch TV.

“Are you feeling better?”

Xiang Xiang smiled lightly and said, “I’m fine.”

She was not that delicate. After all, she had worked in a factory, herself. She had to dish out the same hard quota as expected of her male colleagues like mule. There was no room for her to be delicate.

Zhang Cheng nodded in satisfaction. “Have Sister Zhang Cook whatever you want to eat.”

“Okay,” Xiang Xiang said.

Xiang Xiang knew that her only strong point was that she was obedient. She would do as she was told and keep doing as she was told.

If that wasn’t the case, it could not be her rather average looks. Why would Brother Cheng treat her well?

Zhang Cheng did not like seeing her sad.

He coddled her as much as he could.

Fortunately, Xiang Xiang’s mood passed very quickly. With Zhang Cheng by her side, they chatted and laughed for a while before it passed.

The next day, after Zhang Cheng had breakfast with Xiang Xiang, he headed to the gym to exercise.

This time, Shengnan Zhao was not boxing, but was working out on a machine.

It could be said that this woman was rather brutish. Although she trained less than men, that was not the amount of training that a woman should have.

Moreover, looking at the sweat stains on her sportswear, it was obvious that she had been training for a long time.

This confused Zhang Cheng.

You are just a boxing coach in a gym, why do you need to train yourself this hard?

But in the end, Zhang Cheng didn’t say anything. He ran on the treadmill and worked on a few machines. Of course, the amount of training was much less than Shengnan Zhao.

After all, it was great to have a lot of endorphins after exercise, but Zhang Cheng didn’t have the habit of self-abuse.

When it was almost noon, Zhang Cheng looked at Shengnan Zhao who was still training. He didn’t say anything and went to buy a generous lunch.

After the morning training, Shengnan Zhao went directly to Zhang Cheng and started to eat after a short rest. She wasn’t as polite as she was yesterday.

The fitness trainer who had been looking for trouble yesterday almost felt his eyes pop out when he saw this.

But Zhang Cheng ignored him completely.

“You’re overdoing it,” Zhang Cheng said as he handed the electrolytic water in his hand to Shengnan Zhao.

He didn’t want to say it at first, but in the end, he couldn’t hold it in. After all, a lot of men wouldn’t be able to endure that kind of training. What’s more, Shengnan Zhao was such a beautiful woman.

Shengnan Zhao raised her head and glanced at Zhang Cheng.

“What? We haven’t even started dating, and you’re already trying to control me?” She was obviously a little unhappy.

“Is that so? If I wanted to control you, then I’d buy this gym and let you play by yourself.” Zhang Cheng did not pursue the matter and changed the topic.

Zhao Shengnan was amused when she heard that. “How many women have you said that to?”

Zhang Cheng was stunned. He thought about it seriously for a moment and shook his head.

Before he had money, he was just an ordinary person. When he first got together with his ex-girlfriend, it had been a matter of mutual interest. They simply bonded.

He had won Xiang Xiang over with money. Even so, he had watched her with interest before he finally made the decision.

Moreover, Xiang Xiang was very obedient. She would do whatever Zhang Cheng said.

“You’re the first.”

Zhao Shengnan did not believe it. However, she only sneered and continued to eat.

Free food was delicious. Didn’t it smell good? What nonsense.

Zhang Cheng did not explain himself.

He quietly watched Zhao Shengnan eat.

Zhao Shengnan ate for a while. When she saw Zhang Cheng simply watching her, she was stunned.

Could it be true?

However, Zhao Shengnan quickly shook it off. Rich people flapped their gums all the time. Who knew how many young ladies they had deceived with this trick?

She quickly went back to burying her head back in food.

After taking the meat whole and spitting the bones out, Zhao Shengnan hunted for even more dishes on the table.

When Zhang Cheng saw this, he more or less understood the situation of this woman, Zhao Shengnan.

He could not help but regret it. Yesterday, he had wanted to show off and pay his way into her heart, but he did not expect this woman to have an unusual dislike for rich people.

Even if he had already had a good start, Zhao Shengnan still unconsciously wanted to distance herself from him.

“Are you free tonight? Let’s go watch a movie?” Zhang Cheng said after thinking.

Zhao Shengnan glanced at Zhang Cheng when he heard that.

With her physical strength, she would not be in any danger, even if he tried to force himself on her.

After all, as a former member of the provincial boxing team, even if she was a female, dealing with a rookie like Zhang Cheng could probably be done blindfolded and with one hand tied behind her back.

“Sure,” Zhao Shengnan said flippantly.

As long as she remained distant, she didn’t believe that he would make a move.

Zhang Cheng had more or less guessed Zhao Shengnan’s thoughts.

But this was a long-term partner in the works, just like Xiang Xiang. So Zhang Cheng was very patient.

As for Qiqi’s kind, both parties were happy with the current state of things. They could try so many more positions and participants.

At most, they would only meet a few more times.

In the afternoon, Zhao Shengnan’s training did not abate in the slightest.

This made Zhang Cheng frown.

After thinking about it, he took out a three-year-old ginseng.

It was not that there was nothing better, nor was it that he could not bear to give it up. Everything had to be done step by step.

“What is that?” Zhao Shengnan was replenishing her fluids and was a little surprised to see the ginseng in Zhang Cheng’s hand.

“Ginseng, it will nourish your body,” Zhang Cheng said.

Zhao Shengnan looked at the ginseng in Zhang Cheng’s hand and then looked at Zhang Cheng. She took it and only nodded. She did not even bother to thank him.

Zhang Cheng could not help but be amused. At the same time, he knew that he was being cheap. But he liked that part about her.

Zhao Shengnan put the ginseng into her locker. He carelessly pulled out a root and put it into his mouth, chewing it like gum.

Obviously, she knew how to eat dried ginseng.

But a moment later, surprise flashed in Zhao Shengnan’s eyes.

She had trained a lot, and in the past, she had trained even more.

The reason why she had fallen out of her prime was not because she wanted to, but because her body was slowly tapering off.

The hidden injuries from the past training had already caused her body to have a lot of problems, big and small.

However, when this ginseng root fell into her stomach, a vague warmth spread throughout her body.

Although the old injuries in the past did not improve, Zhao Shengnan could still vaguely feel that as long as she persisted in taking this ginseng, she might actually return to her peak form..
