Chapter 119: Chapter 118 That Guy is Really Handsome! Chapter 119: Chapter 118 That Guy is Really Handsome! May 11, 2023, Thursday, clear, 16~26°C. YJTC. The gentle morning sun streamed through the east-facing glass curtain wall, brightening the entire living room. Tang Song stood barefoot on the carpet, engaging in posture correction exercises. External shoulder rotations, four sets, Angel’s Wings, five sets, arm swinging chest expansions, five sets... After completing the exercises, he settled onto the soft, comfortable sofa. He opened the Little Red Book app. He entered the Personal Center, current follower count: 5255. Tang Song happily curled the corners of his mouth. The note he posted four days ago had once again caused a surge in popularity, adding over 3000 followers, more than doubling the number. He checked his latest note. Likes 6400+, favorites 500+, comments 1300+. [Title: Day 36 of Transformation Advice, Trying on a Suit Today] [Text: Following everyone’s suggestions, I’ve been correcting my posture for a while, and it truly feels effective. I’ve chosen a well-fitted suit specifically for today, let me know if there’s anything else that needs adjusting.] The main image was still the before-and-after comparison, followed by recent updates on weight, diet, and workout selfies. The before picture showed him at 90 kilograms, with a high body fat percentage, flabby all over, lacking posture, with fatty cheeks, double chin, large eye bags, pimples, acne scars... The latest photo showed him at 80 kilograms, 17% body fat, a well-proportioned, upright figure, a smooth jawline, clear skin, broad shoulders, narrow waist, handsome features, in a crisp suit... Putting the two photos together, the sense of contrast and comparability was at its peak, bringing him an enormous amount of traffic and attention. He opened the comments section. Seeing the top comment, Tang Song couldn’t help but snort-laugh. [Yaoling: “I’m extremely grateful for everyone’s likes. I would also like to clarify that I am the girlfriend of the guy in the photo, and I took the picture; the suit was my purchase. We’re just a regular couple from Yan City, very lucky to have found each other, and we are very happy. Please be respectful in your private messages!”] Below that was an additional reply. [Yaoling: “Although he will insist it’s not the case, I have the final say since it’s my mouth, and if I say it is, then it is!”] This junior was really amusing. Tang Song casually liked her comment and replied below: “Dear girlfriend, hello, hugs and kisses.” He checked the time; it was time to go to work. Tang Song tidied up the living room and stepped into the walk-in closet to change clothes. That morning, a team of six people poached from Changyun Media were scheduled to come to his company to sign their contracts and formally join the team. Tang Song would also have a one-on-one chat with them. Although he trusted DJRH’s capabilities, still, with the [Leader] character skill at his disposal, he wanted to personally make sure everything was in order, as an additional layer of insurance. He stood in front of the mirror, taking a careful look. Thanks to the recent high-intensity anaerobic workouts and the boost from Magic Protein Powder, he could definitely see a clearer definition in his muscle contours. After getting ready, he went down to B1. Soon, a silver Mercedes-Benz S slowly drove out of the underground parking garage. ... Sky Garden Community. “Knock, knock, knock—” He Liting pushed open the bedroom door without hesitation. “Qianqian! Wake up, I bought breakfast; let’s eat together.” Zhao Yaqian rolled over in bed, hugging the blanket. Her long legs, over one meter tall, twitched as she mumbled, “Can’t open my eyes; I want to sleep a bit more.” A twitch appeared at the corner of He Liting’s eye as she said helplessly, “Didn’t you say last night you wanted to develop the habit of waking up early? And you’re giving up on the first day?” “Alright,” Zhao Yaqian twisted her body and sat up with difficulty, yawning, “After this week, I’ll be off probation and a permanent employee, so I can rotate between day and evening shifts.” With the day shift starting, she would need to wake up around seven, so now was the time to start adjusting her sleep schedule. She sat down at the dining table. Taking a bite of the pancake He Liting handed her, Zhao Yaqian’s eyes lit up instantly, “Wow, Ting! Why is today’s breakfast so lavish!?” The modest pancake was stuffed with plenty of filling: lettuce, ham, loin, spicy strips, and crispy pastry. It was a big satisfaction in one bite. With delicious food in her mouth, Zhao Yaqian’s eyes sparkled, instantly erasing all traces of sleepiness. He Liting also placed a bowl of millet pumpkin porridge in front of her and said with a smile, “I completed all the paperwork for my resignation yesterday. I’m starting at the new company today. Hurry up and eat, then help me with my makeup and hairstyle.” Zhao Yaqian rejoiced, “That’s great! Both of us have found good jobs! Don’t worry, Beauty Zhao will take care of you today, ensuring you look gorgeous and dazzle your new boss and colleagues!” “Our rent is going to expire soon; I want to check out the new company first, and if it’s all good, we’ll start looking for a new place to live that’s closer to both our workplaces.” “Mm, actually, I’ll really miss this place,” Zhao Yaqian looked around the room. During the more than half a year she had been in Yan City, she had always lived here. When she first arrived, her cousin’s roommate was still here, and she had to share a bed with her cousin for over two months. Only after that roommate moved out to live with her boyfriend did she get her own little room. She had painstakingly decorated with stickers, hooks, and her own layout, and had grown quite attached to it. After finishing breakfast. He Liting earnestly washed up and applied a treasured face mask. Sitting down at the vanity, He Liting began to let her cousin do her makeup. As someone who studied beauty, Zhao Yaqian’s makeup skills were quite good, and her movements were swift and efficient. With her eyes closed, He Liting softly asked, “Qianqian, how have you been getting along with Tang Song recently?” “Pretty well, last night we even filmed... uh, anyway, we chatted and had a great time.” Zhao Yaqian stuck out her tongue, her cheeks flushing red, as she recalled the video Brother Song asked her to film last night, which was quite embarrassing. He Liting spoke without expression, “I meant, how well do you understand him, like his love history, work, and such.” “He’s starting his own business now, so the company is just starting up and he’s really busy. As for romance, Brother Song was my first kiss!” “First kiss,” He Liting said sourly, “You’re really lucky, Qianqian. You should pay more attention to his work, starting a business is quite difficult.” From this perspective, Qianqian really might have a chance to take Tang Song away from that rich and beautiful girl. “Yeah, Brother Song does work very hard. There aren’t many people in the company, so besides being the boss, he also has to code, handle business, and he’s even moonlighting at other companies,” Zhao Yaqian said with sympathy, nodding her head. Brother Song was working so hard, so when he asked her to relax a bit by making those revealing videos, how could she have the heart to refuse. He Liting paused, then nodded, “That does sound tough, and there’s also the possibility of failure, which must be a lot of pressure.” After finishing her makeup and styling her hair, He Liting picked out a more formal set of light-colored clothing. Oversized blazer, basic underlayer, and a pencil skirt. Looking at herself in the mirror, very nice! As an assistant for live broadcasts, who occasionally stepped in as a co-host, she hoped to make a good impression on the leadership of her new company. “I’m off now, Qianqian.” He Liting waved her hand, pushed open the door, and turned back to remind, “Remember to clean up the room.” Descending the stairs, she was greeted by warm breeze and just-right sunlight. Filled with anticipation for her new job, He Liting walked out of the community gate. Having only a diploma, the past two years hadn’t been smooth sailing for her. Starting as a receptionist, she worked hard and moved up to administrative clerk, only for the company to fold soon after. She then stumbled into the live broadcast industry, becoming an assistant operator and had been at it for over a year, exhausted day in and day out. Just like Brother Liu had said, a new company meant more possibilities and opportunities. Judging by the boss’s investments, she might have really gotten lucky this time and landed a chance to change her life. ... The bus, filled with passengers, traveled through the morning rush in Yan City, arriving at its destination before she even noticed. He Liting stepped off the bus and looked at the towering buildings in front of her. She took out a small mirror to tidy up her appearance. Entering the shiny, clean revolving glass door, she scanned the surroundings once. First, she marveled at the upscale office environment and then headed towards the open cafe area in the corner. “Qingya, Xiaoyu, Brother Liu,” He Liting greeted a few old colleagues and sat down beside them. Wang Qingya looked her up and down, then smiled, “Nice, Ting, you’re pretty well-dressed today.” “Haha, gotta make a good impression on the new boss.” The company’s HR had informed them to arrive by 9:10 AM, so they had agreed to meet here at 9:00 AM and go to report in together on time. This timing was smack in the middle of peak hours for work. They sat in a corner by the window, chatting about the office environment of Cloud Stream Building and the men and women passing by while waiting for two other colleagues. “It’s really bustling around here, we can go shopping after work.” “That girl’s dress is a new celine design, so beautiful.” ... “Wow, look at that guy, so handsome!” Wang Qingya exclaimed, her eyes sparkling as she pointed in a direction. “Where? Where?” “At the coffee shop’s cashier counter.” “Wowza, he’s not just handsome, but he’s got a vibe about him, a good build, and great fashion sense. I just don’t know which floor he’s on, maybe there will be a chance to get to know him later.” Hearing her colleagues’ chatter, He Liting couldn’t help but turn her head to sneak a peek at the handsome guy. Then she saw a familiar figure, standing quietly in front of the cashier counter. Tailored thin white dress shirt, crisp black trousers accentuating his broad shoulders and narrow waist. Upright posture, striking features, clear contours, radiating an air of confident ease typical of an elite professional. He Liting blinked hard, her facial expression gradually turning blank. Tang Song! What was he doing here? He looked even more handsome than the last time they met, and his physique had improved too. Especially when he smiled, with his bright teeth and clean, refreshing look. It seemed like every time they met, he had undergone some positive change, always exuding a dynamic and upward vitality. No wonder Qianqian liked him so much. Wang Qingya waved her hand in front of He Liting, laughing, “Haha, Ting, you’re totally staring!” Liu Renjie teased, “Liting, look at you acting like you’ve never seen the world. Want me to introduce you to a few handsome male hosts?” Li Xiaoyu whispered, “This guy’s temperament is way better than those hosts.” “Definitely great, he looks like the male lead in a workplace drama, I like it.” He Liting, flustered by her colleagues’ banter, said, “Yeah, very handsome.”
