"In that case, I agree." Zhang Rongfang nodded. His desire for the part had already been discovered.
He then stopped trying to hide it and readily agreed.
A look of joy flashed across Wan Yanlu's face.
"In that case, we'll have to rely entirely on you, young master!"
Zhang Rongfang pondered for a moment, then looked at Wan Yanlu's face.
The Attribute Panel immediately displayed lines of information.
'Wan Yanlu - Life 9-10.'
Martial arts skills – unknown.
Civilian Skill – Unknown.
His confidence stemmed primarily from the extremely clear hints displayed in the Attribute Panel.
The Life Attribute of an ordinary person is usually within 10, but Wan Yanlu has already reached the upper limit without practicing martial arts, making him even stronger than before he started practicing.
It is evident that he was born with a good physique.
To be so obese yet maintain such a healthy physique is clearly a gift.
As long as you choose the right diet and exercise, you can achieve your goal in three days. In Tanyang City, at a suburban manor belonging to the Wan Yan Family.
Several skilled Wan Yan Family guarded the surrounding area.
In the manor's training ground, Wan Yanlu was struggling to learn a basic set of Five Elements Fist from Zhang Rongfang.
This boxing technique is a basic boxing technique that Zhang Rongfang has modified; it is specifically designed to burn fat.
It focuses on high frequency, long duration, and does not damage the joints.
His idea was quite good. As long as you practice this kind of boxing consistently and reduce your intake, weight loss will come quickly.
Unfortunately, inside the dojo, Zhang Rongfang watched as Wan Yanlu swayed and staggered as he practiced his punches.
Watching her struggle to move her knees, her two calves trembling precariously, as if they might break at any moment.
"Alright!" he sighed. "Stop for now."
"Yes!" Wan Yanlu immediately stopped and looked up at him.
Zhang Rongfang was speechless.
He now understood why Wan Yanlu, with his privileged background, couldn't even lose weight.
Since practicing martial arts clearly involves a lot of energy expenditure, why doesn't Wan Yanlu try it?
Now he understands.
With Wan Yanlu weighing over 600 jin (approximately 300 kg), starting to practice martial arts from the beginning would severely damage his knees.
If you keep training like this, you won't lose the fat, and your knees will be permanently damaged.
It's likely that the martial artists of the Wan Yan Family realized this, which is why they didn't let her lose weight through martial arts training.
Seeing Wan Yanlu staring at him expectantly, Zhang Rongfang also felt a bit of a headache.
With this body type and weight, choosing a suitable exercise method is really difficult.
He recalled some modern common sense from his previous life.
Can you swim?
Wan Yanlu was taken aback.
Swimming is very easy.
"Let's go. Let's find a place to swim," Zhang Rongfang said casually.
Half an hour later.
The two stood by the Wan Yan Family's private artificial pool.
Wan Yanlu changed into a form-fitting black swimsuit.
Swimsuits in this era were all made of leather, but they were still completely form-fitting. After she changed into them, she draped a large black cloak over them.
Standing by the artificial pool, I felt a little embarrassed to Unveiling my cloak.
Although the people of Great Ling are open-minded, there are even systems of adoption by peers and adoption by people of different generations.
What is meant by surrogacy? It means that if an older brother dies, a younger brother can marry his sister-in-law. If a younger brother dies, an older brother can marry his brother's wife.
The adoption of a non-human successor is even more outrageous.
Simply put, it means that people of different generations can also adopt each other through marriage.
Examples include a son marrying his stepmother, a nephew marrying his aunt, and a grandson marrying a step-grandmother with no blood relation.
As long as there is no blood relation, anything is possible in Great Ling. Zhang Rongfang had also learned about this exaggerated system.
It is said that this is because, according to the laws of the Great Ling, women also have the right to inherit family property.
Therefore, in order to prevent family property from falling into the hands of outsiders, the system of inheritance came into being.
If one's own people marry another person, wouldn't that guarantee that the family property will still be preserved?
At this moment, Wan Yanlu stood by the pool, looked around, and then looked at Zhang Rongfang.
"Um... could you turn around?"
"Didn't you wear clothes underneath?" Zhang Rongfang was speechless, but still respected the other party and turned around.
Not long after, he heard Wan Yanlu say that it was okay, and then he turned back.
In the pool, a huge black Round Ball slowly rolled and floated, like a preserved egg that had accidentally fallen into the water. Zhang Rongfang looked helplessly at Wan Yanlu, who couldn't sink at all.
Even if the other person doesn't swim, they won't sink once they're in the water.
This is simply amazing! "Get moving! The water will help relieve the burden on your joints. From now on, unless I tell you to stop, you can keep swimming."
"Yes!"
Wan Yanlu gritted his teeth and replied, his four arms and legs beginning to swing wildly, circling back and forth in the pool.
One lap, two laps, the rubber boat turns, three laps, four laps. "I can't go on!"
Her movements slowed noticeably as she wore a full swimsuit.
"No, going too slow won't work! Keep going! If you really want to lose weight, you have to listen to me," Zhang Rongfang shouted.
According to the energy consumption of exercise, initially, the energy stored in the muscles accounts for a large proportion of the energy consumption.
You have to exercise for a certain period of time before the proportion of energy generated by fat burning can increase.
This is why short exercise sessions are not effective for weight loss.
Wan Yanlu gritted her teeth. She really wanted to rest, but when she thought of the provocations, contempt, and ridicule she had suffered before, she couldn't help but think of them.
A surge of passion welled up within her, and she continued swimming with all her might.
Zhang Rongfang was standing to the side, nodded slightly.
He kept watching Wan Yanlu Lu swim, taking a ten-minute break when he got tired, and then continuing until the lower limit of his Life Attribute started to decrease a little.
He then called a halt.
He roughly understood Wan Yanlu's current physical limits.
It's just a slight reduction in lifespan, but the price of losing a lot of fat is undoubtedly worth it.
Otherwise, they wouldn't even be qualified to practice martial arts.
With her size, she couldn't even put on any moves or stances.
Then I rested for two days and had a massage from a healthy woman to help remove lactic acid.
After that, I continued swimming like crazy and controlled my diet.
Time passed day by day.
During this period, Zhang Rongfang frequently entered and exited the Wan Yan Family manor.
The elders of the Wan Yan Family breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that their young lady finally had hope of finding a normal person.
However, the people around Zhang Rongfang were somewhat different.
"Brother? You... you really got together with that person from the Wan Yan Family?"
Zhang Rongfang was at home.
Li Huoyun came to his door. After enduring it for several days, he finally couldn't suppress his doubts and went to ask in person.
"We're just friends. What's wrong with that?" Zhang Rongfang said dismissively.
In the days I've spent with him, Wan Yanlu has proven to be a good person—sincere, trustworthy, and without the vices of other spoiled brats.
In fact, as long as someone is self-reliant and has willpower, Zhang Rongfang treats them with equal respect.
Because such people, even if they are underestimated now, will one day soar high in the future.
"But that's Wan Yanlu!? She used to be part of the pigsty, and she often picked people to play with. There are even examples of people being played to death in their circle." Li Huoyun couldn't help but get anxious.
"Did Wan Yanlu really have such a thing?" Zhang Rongfang asked in surprise.
"Well, that's just how her circle is, how clean can she be?" Li Huoyun shook his head.
"So you haven't heard of it?" Zhang Rongfang said dismissively. "Besides, we're not in that kind of relationship. I'm just helping her lose weight."
"Brother, you should take it easy," Li Huoyun, speechless.
Who would believe such words at a time like this?
They all got into the carriage together on that occasion.
After Li Huoyun left, Zhang Rongfang went to the yamen to submit his application.
He plans to apply for a transfer back to the Mingjing Palace.
We crossed a street and arrived at the government office.
Zhang Rongfang straightened his Shangguan robes and boots, gripped the hilt of his knife, and walked toward the side door.
The two guards at the gate would usually greet him, but this time they looked at him strangely.
One of them wanted to say something, but held back and remained silent.
Zhang Rongfang felt a little strange as he entered the yamen.
Along the way, a few people greeted him, and several of them had strange expressions on their faces.
Further away, several people glanced at him, then lowered their heads and whispered among themselves, seemingly discussing his affairs.
The feeling of being surrounded by whispers and furtive glances is definitely not pleasant.
However, Zhang Rongfang didn't care at all.
After passing through the long main road of the government office and taking a side road, we arrived at the gate of the small building of the Ninth Squad.
He pushed the door open and entered.
Inside, the team members were scattered about, some standing, some sitting, some playing cards, some playing chess, and others reading and chatting.
"Team Zhang, you're here?" Chen Hansheng greeted him with a smile.
Liu Han also separated from another female team member and took the initiative to greet her.
"Team Zhang, there were rumors that you were taken in by the eldest daughter of the Wan Yan Family."
"It's just gossip. Wan Yanlu and I are good friends, nothing more," Zhang Rongfang said calmly. "Whether others believe it or not is their business. Just don't spread rumors in front of me."
"Team Zhang is indeed calm!" Liu Han gave a thumbs up.
"Alright, one training session today, then back to patrol duty. There might be a new deputy captain coming," Zhang Rongfang instructed.
During this period, Chen Hansheng and Liu Han worked together to complete the patrol duties.
Liu Han successfully broke through to the Second Grade, and is currently recuperating after Breaking Limits.
But that's still a pretty good level of ability.
After settling matters within the team, Zhang Rongfang submitted his application to Zhang Xiangyang of the General Team.
He knew that he couldn't get promoted any faster on the surface.
The main reason is that military positions require a minimum rank; to reach the general level, one must be at least Sixth Grade.
However, he is only at the Third Grade now. If he did not conceal his strength at all, he would be far superior, but his age is a factor.
Achieving the First Grade in a year is already considered genius; reaching the Fifth Grade in a year? That's probably just wishful thinking.
Therefore, if calculated on First Grade, he has only been promoted to the Third Grade, which is less than half a year ago. In the evening, after his patrol duty, Zhang Rongfang received a notice from the headquarters.
His application was rejected.
Zhang Rongfang was not an exception; the Moon Chasing Blade incident had just occurred, and now that there was a shortage of manpower, it was only natural not to let him leave.
He stopped wasting time and spent his days helping Wan Yanlu lose weight and his nights working.
Several days passed in the blink of an eye.
The night of November 14th.
Zhang Rongfang entered the courtyard, changed his clothes, and prepared to take a shower in a good mood.
Under Wan Yanlu's supervision, the progress was quite rapid.
In just five days, I've already lost two pounds.
Reduce calorie intake, increase exercise to burn calories, and eat more vegetables, mushrooms, and high-protein foods to ensure adequate micronutrients and nutrition.
The results of this effort were quite obvious.
He walked into the courtyard with a wooden basin and towel, just about to fetch water.
Suddenly, the Attribute Points column on the Attribute Panel in front of me showed that I had gained one more attribute point.
"Not bad, not bad." Zhang Rongfang was in an even better mood.
With the extra Attribute Points, the Guanxu Skill can be improved again.
The best way to increase Life Attribute now is to improve the Guanxu Skill.
Adding one attribute point directly to health, which only increases the upper and lower limits by one point, is quite inefficient.
However, if it is added to Civilian Skill, it can bring considerable benefits.
