Chapter 39: Let’s Practice

Since the day Dai Li had received the Slimming Exercises, he had not practiced it yet. The main reason was that he could not find a suitable trainee. The working conditions were too harsh, and it only worked on professional athletes. Normally, if an athlete could strictly control themselves, their weight would not change much. In addition, Dai Li was focused on training sprinters. Usually sprinters had low body fat, and it was a luxury to them to gain fat. Therefore, sprinters rarely need to reduce weight. Dai Li didn't have many chances to find an appropriate trainee.
Today was his lucky day. He had finally found an opportunity to prove the exercises to be effective. Thinking about this, Dai Li asked Feifei, ”Alright, stop crying. You wanna lose weight? I have an idea.”
Hearing that Dai Li had a way to solve this problem, Feifei Yu immediately stopped sobbing as if she was under his spell. She stared at Dai Li with fixed eyes.
Dai Li cleared his throat and said, ”I have a series of secret slimming exercises—I mean, five-animal boxing, which was passed on from my ancestors. You know five-animal boxing, don't you? It was created by the miracle-working doctor Hua Tuo, so it is very effective for losing weight. They say you can see the results within one day, be slimmer within three days, and be totally different after ten days!”
Feifei Yu's face was full of doubtfulness. Dai Li must be exaggerating. Even though Yu was young, she would not believe in his ”five-animal boxing.”
The blood flushed into her face. He felt that he was overenthusiastic. Even a kid would not believe him. He added awkwardly, ”Alright, we both know that it's not the five-animal boxing. But the exercise is indeed effective, would you like to give it a try?”
Yu shook her head decidedly, then responded with politeness, ”Thank you for your kindness, but it's getting dark outside, I should go back for dinner.”
Dai Li had spent so much time searching for this opportunity, how could he miss it? He stretched his arms to stop Yu and said sincerely, ”How about you try first? It won't cost you much time, only about ten minutes. If it is not effective, you won't have lost anything. But what if it is effective? You could then lose weight and get back to your original status.”
If it was someone older than Li she would label him a drug dealer, but he was still too young. She had been spending too much time on training, so she didn't have much social experience. Hearing Dai Li's words, she hesitated for several seconds, then nodded in agreement.
Dai Li was overjoyed. Finally he had a chance to prove it!
