When Professor Nie arrived, Nie Guangyi could no longer continue training like this.
If walking required crawling, Professor Nie would have to send him to the hospital.
Right after finishing the workout, the muscles' outlines looked their best.
Because Nie Guangyi hadn't had the chance to properly stretch and recover, his muscles, although beautifully defined, were stiff as rocks.
Nie Guangyi struggled to get off the equipment.
Xuan Shi subtly offered him a hand.
Nie Guangyi responded just as subtly, "Tell my dad I'll go down after I take a shower."
The fact that Nie Guangyi needed half an hour to shower was known to Xuan Shi, Nie Tianqin, and even Meng Xin Zhi.
Nie Guangyi hoped this method would give him some time to buffer.
But it didn't help much in reality.
Only those who have experienced it know just how painful it is to have all your muscles worn out.
Walking was painful, and so was turning over in bed.
