"No need. I'm used to living here. It's pretty good," Zhao Shengnan said. She had mocked and ridiculed him repeatedly, but Zhang Cheng had always maintained a cordial attitude. Even Zhao Shengnan, who hated the rich, knew that she had gone too far.
After all, it was not wrong to be rich. It was only right to be rich and heartless.
Zhang Cheng held Zhao Shengnan and laid her on the bed.
There was no place to sit.
"What are you doing?" Zhao Shengnan asked.
Zhang Cheng found a comfortable place to lie down and then held Zhao Shengnan in his arms.
"My heart aches. The environment here is too bad," Zhang Cheng said. At that moment, Zhang Cheng saw a fan in the corner of the room. There was no air conditioning. He really did not know how Zhao Shengnan, this woman, survived during the hottest period of summer.
Zhao Shengnan glanced at Zhang Cheng, then found a comfortable position to lean into Zhang Cheng's arms.
"It's okay, I'm used to it."
Although the two of them had already shared beds, such quiet and peaceful conversation had never happened before.
Zhao Shengnan listened to Zhang Cheng's strong heartbeat. She gradually closed her eyes and fell asleep.
Zhang Cheng carefully helped Zhao Shengnan take off her clothes so that she could sleep more comfortably. Then, he took out a blanket and covered the two of them. He lovingly smoothed the short hair of this woman who had been training for the whole day and also fell asleep.
The next day, when Zhang Cheng woke up, Zhao Shengnan had already come back from morning exercises.
"The buns are on the table. You can eat them yourself." Zhao Shengnan slung her sports bag over her back and said.
The training room was two to three kilometers away from here.
"Let me give you a ride." Zhang Cheng hurriedly got up.
However, Zhao Shengnan casually waved her hand and trotted downstairs.
Zhang Cheng smiled bitterly and got up to eat.
The steamed buns with pork and scallion stuffing were fragrant and oily.
Together with the fragrant millet congee cooked in a big pot, they could be considered a perfect breakfast partner.
Zhang Cheng ate it and felt that it was not inferior to the restaurant he frequented.
After filling his stomach, he took out the trash. Zhang Cheng first went home to change his clothes. After chatting with Xiang Xiang for a while, he went out again.
However, just as Zhang Cheng went downstairs, his phone rang.
The call went through.
"Young man, this is Guan Da Qiang." On the other end of the phone, an old man in his sixties said with a smile.
"Hello, Uncle Guan. Are you here to ask about ginseng? I don't have any here at the moment," Zhang Cheng said. His current income was only from selling ginseng.
However, Zhang Cheng had no intention of flooding the market with ginseng.
Firstly, it brought too much attention. Secondly, the effect of this ginseng was almost otherworldly. If it appeared in large numbers, it was going to topple more than just his life.
His cheat system was his dimension. The crops were basically immortal, free from rot and time-accelerated.
For the moment, he had to stay safe and not be reckless. If there were any ways to hide it in the future, he would talk about other things then.
Moreover, he was only selling a small amount of ginseng at the moment. It was enough for him to live very well.
Therefore, it was meaningless to push his sales. Selling a few ginseng was enough for him to live a good life.
It was a good line to take between the pros and cons.
"I see. Little Cheng, I can increase the price," said Old Master Guan, unwilling to give up.
Zhang Cheng smiled bitterly and said, "Uncle Guan, it's not a question of whether I can increase the price or not. It's just that I don't have any ginseng on hand at the moment."
Old Master Guan was a little disappointed and said, "Alright then, Little Cheng. Remember me when you have ginseng." After a few cups of medicinal wine, he could clearly feel that he had grown a few years younger the next day. He simply felt too good. It was no wonder that grandfather Guan valued him so much.
He did not hesitate to take the initiative to call Zhang Cheng, this young man.
After rejecting the ginseng, Zhang Cheng went to the training room.
As expected, Zhao Shengnan was training hard again.
Moreover, because she had chewed on some ginseng for a day, the hidden injuries left behind by the excessive amount of training in the past gradually recovered.
At present, she was trying to return to the amount of training in the past, or even surpass it.
Zhang Cheng had been careful enough to invite a dietitian and a trainer.
Otherwise, with Zhao Shengnan's desperate recklessness, she could have easily overtrained herself to injury.
Upon sensing Zhang Cheng's approach, Zhao Shengnan only glanced over and continued her training.
But even so, Zhang Cheng was quite satisfied. She had thrown a towel at him yesterday. Fortunately, it wasn't a dumbbell or anything.
Zhang Cheng left Zhao Shengnan alone. He found a treadmill and started running. After running for half an hour, he began to exercise his arms, abdominal muscles, chest muscles, back muscles, and so on.
Even if Zhang Cheng hadn't thought of doing the same thing as those who practiced bodybuilding, with muscles bulging one by one, it was still good to build some strength.
Moreover, after taking the spiritual herb-grade ginseng, his bolstered foundation hadn't been fully realized.
After training for a while and sweating all over, Zhang Cheng stopped to replenish his fluids.
Coincidentally, Zhao Shengnan was also resting.
Zhang Cheng leaned over.
"The buns were quite delicious in the morning. Buy me two more tomorrow."
Zhao Shengnan looked at Zhang Cheng and didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
This b*stard was so rich. He had eaten all kinds of delicious food. How could he ask her for food? It was just that he wanted to go somewhere else with her at night.
If he wanted her to go, then she would go. What was there to be afraid of?
Her first time had been painful and awkward, so Zhao Shengnan didn't feel the joy and pleasure that so many others spoke of. But yesterday at noon, Zhao Shengnan had finally tasted the sweetness.
So it could actually be such a pleasant thing.
Especially since Zhao Shengnan had more or less opened her heart to Zhang Cheng, she naturally wouldn't reject anything.
Although Zhao Shengnan didn't say anything, how could Zhang Cheng not know that she had agreed to let him stay over again tonight? He couldn't help but be happy. It wasn't that he was a simp, but Zhao Shengnan's long pair of legs were too alluring. He had only experienced it once before, but today, he got to do it again.
With a sense of anticipation, time passed especially quickly.
Before they knew it, it was already evening.
After the training ended, the others had naturally left.
Zhang Cheng rushed back to her residence.
Zhao Shengnan, who was determined to become a boxer, could only eat a variety of fruits for dinner. At most, she would add some nuts.
As for other staple foods, she could only eat them occasionally.
Fortunately, there were abundant resources now. Although she couldn't say that she had all kinds of fruits, it was enough to fill her stomach.
Zhang Cheng helped to peel pistachios, melon seeds, peanuts, walnuts, and the like, while looking at Zhao Shengnan with a smile.
"How dare you." After eating a few bananas in her hand, Zhao Shengnan ate the pistachios and other snacks that Zhang Cheng had peeled. "I'm going to take a shower."
Although the place was quite simple, there was still a solar water heater that could be used for showering.
After Zhao Shengnan took a shower, Zhang Cheng immediately dragged her to the bed.
However, ten minutes later, the bed collapsed.
After all, although Zhao Shengnan's bed wasn't small, it was still a wooden bed. It wasn't a problem for normal sleeping, but once there was intense activity, it simply gave way.
"Get up." Zhao Shengnan endured another rough thrust with a grimace and struck Zhang Cheng's shoulder, hoping that this guy would pause and see what was going on.
But Zhang Cheng did not stop. He gave it a glance and said, "Keep going."
