"Ugh, it really is true that getting fat ruins everything."
The disdain in Su Qiao's voice and the disappointment in her eyes immediately put Wang Zhiyao's sensitive nerves on high alert.
He reflexively touched his face, then lowered his head to look at his belly. "I'm 175 centimeters and weigh 135 jin. I... I shouldn't count as fat yet, right?"
After starting work, he had rarely gone running or played ball games. Sometimes he also had to attend dinners and drink alcohol, so he did weigh a little more than he had right after graduating from college.
But it shouldn't have been as serious as she made it sound, right?
"You only weigh 135 jin?"
Su Qiao stared at him in surprise.
"With the way you look, you seem to weigh at least 150. But maybe that's because you have too much body fat and your flesh is loose!"
"Ugh, anyway, you're no longer the boy I knew back then."
Su Qiao shook her head and sighed. Her few light words only made Wang Zhiyao even more nervous.
"I... Is it really that serious?"
Isn't it just that I've gained a little over twenty jin since college?
"I was just saying it casually. Don't misunderstand me. I'm not saying you're ugly, but..."
After deliberately pausing, Su Qiao explained with an unnatural look, "To be honest, I didn't notice it before. It was a few of my friends who saw you and said you were getting uglier and uglier..."
"But my friends didn't mean it on purpose. You absolutely mustn't take it to heart."
Su Qiao hurriedly explained, seemingly trying to comfort him, but her gaze kept wandering toward his slightly protruding abdomen.
"It's just that you should still pay attention to managing your figure. Otherwise, it really affects your looks.
