You Took Out Your Ribs? Your Waist Is So Thin!

An Xiaotong nodded helplessly. Her friend was good in every way, except she was a little too clingy.

Lu Yao, born into a prominent family, had no shortage of friends wearing false masks. It would have been fine if she were a little foolish, but she was clever enough to see sincerity and pretense for what they were, yet unwilling to put on a mask like everyone else.

In the end, all that left her with was the loneliness of not fitting in.

So she treasured An Xiaotong, her only friend, like a precious jewel.

Lu Yao immediately beamed and wrapped herself around An Xiaotong like a koala, hanging from her body.

Just like that, Little Deer and Xiao Tong entered the bathroom together.

Steam rose from the bathtub, milky white mist spilling across the seams of the marble floor and turning the entire bathroom into a hazy, warm gauze canopy.

Rose, jasmine, and peony petals floated on the amber-colored water.

Tiny droplets clung to Lu Yao's lashes as she stared unblinkingly at An Xiaotong across from her.

"Wow, Xiao Tong, how do you usually take care of yourself? Your figure is so good... I wish I had long legs like yours."

At five foot three, Lu Yao envied An Xiaotong's legs most of all.

An Xiaotong plucked a petal from her collarbone. "Eat fewer snacks. Maybe you'll still grow taller."

Lu Yao pouted. "It's not like you eat any less than I do. It's so unfair. You eat so much candy every day, but you never gain weight. I really don't know where all that flesh goes."

It wasn't that An Xiaotong could eat without gaining weight. Her daily training regimen was simply intense, and without high-calorie food, she wouldn't be able to keep up with her nutritional needs.
