Chapter 250: Chapter 248: If My Own Student Eats, That’s Fine

Seeing Ma Juntao chewing with wide eyes, he finally swallowed everything in his mouth with a dramatic gulp.

The other coaches were truly dumbfounded.

"Da-da-da" went the notifications in the phone group.

"Brother Tao, what’s going on? Aren’t you afraid of choking by eating so much in one go?"

"Brother Tao, you’re tough! You ate everything in one go. No wonder you’re the big eater of our gym. Amazing!"

"Brother Tao, quickly tell us, is it really that delicious? You and Brother Pan look like you’re really enjoying it!"

Similarly, Ma Juntao also held his chin and savored the taste for several minutes.

Unbelievable.

A tiny charity dinner stall, yet the owner has such amazing skills.

To speak of nothing else, as a fitness enthusiast, Ma Juntao actually has quite a bit of expertise when it comes to steaks and beef noodles.

He regularly supplements his protein and carbs with these, so there’s no need to worry about ruining his figure. Given his level of activity, [Chen Mo Beef Noodles] would be completely burned off even if he ate three portions at once.

Eating beef and noodles almost every other day, Ma Juntao recalled, stayed silent for a long time, and typed a few sentences in the phone group.

"This is by far the best steak I’ve ever had, the best pasta... Oh right, the owner doesn’t call it pasta, but beef noodles."

"Yes, it’s absolutely the best beef noodles ever! I can’t believe how the noodles can be so springy, and you can clearly taste the wheat flavor while chewing, you know what I mean? My goodness, is there anyone not hungry? Give me another serving, this is simply too satisfying!"

Faced with Ma Juntao’s unreasonable request, the other coaches chose to ignore it, and no one spoke again in the group.

Next came the mutual cover-up session.

Ma Junhua and Pan Siyu stood up to stretch, while the two coaches at the table quickly stuffed the noodles and meat into their mouths with lightning speed.

A moment later, the two worked hard to swallow the food in their mouths and took a deep breath.

Satisfying!

The two stood up again, letting the other two sneak their bites!

Behind the lamppost, Gu Fang and Liu Yuerong originally thought that Boss Xiao Chen was going to get beaten up, but unexpectedly saw this scene, leaving them somewhat bewildered.

"What’s the situation here? I thought the coaches from Jia Mei were coming to cause trouble at our charity stall, but why is everyone eating now?"

"Not just that... they’re eating sneakily too. Hey, look at that coach, just like the one before. Can’t they eat a bit slower?"

Completely baffled.

However, since the coaches from Jia Mei have stepped in, Gu Fang and Liu Yuerong decided not to reveal themselves and continued hiding to observe the situation a bit more, to see if this charity stall could actually make a difference.

Open for business at ten, it’s already half-past ten now, and seeing only 12 regular steaks sold, Chen Mo felt somewhat helpless. 𝕗𝐫𝐞𝕖𝕨𝐞𝗯𝚗𝕠𝘃𝐞𝚕.𝐜𝗼𝚖

"Looks like I was right before; people coming here are mainly rushing towards the night market. Who would notice a roadside stall?"

"But it doesn’t matter. As long as kindness is shared, losing a bit of Experience Value is no big deal."

Adjusting his mindset, he accepted it calmly.

Besides helping with charity events, Chen Mo also wanted to take the chance while it’s not busy to stroll around various places in Chengdu.

While idly searching on his phone for fun places in Chengdu, he noticed several people following him and messaging him privately, just as he opened Douyin (TikTok).

Curious, Chen Mo clicked on the profiles.

"What the heck! Why are they all guys messaging me? What’s their problem?"

Quickly blocking them in a flash, he continued to browse interesting places and food locally.

Meanwhile, on the pedestrian side of Jianxing Road.

"I wonder if these so-called weight loss boot camps by the gyms are effective. Sigh! Better give it a try, maybe a run to warm up!"

Song Ya had just left her apartment, limbered up a bit, put on her earphones, and prepared to start jogging.

Song Ya wasn’t really that overweight, standing 1.6 meters tall and weighing 110 pounds. But recently, her husband often said he was tired at night and wanted to sleep early, so Song Ya began to suspect if it was because her figure was getting out of shape, and her husband was losing interest in her.

Happened to be that a few days ago when she got home and passed by Construction Road, a burly guy handed her a flyer saying she could join their gym’s weight loss boot camp for only 888, which promised to not only shed excess fat but also make her skin firm and elastic.

After hesitating for a few days, Song Ya finally made up her mind and signed up for the camp.

Today was her first class, and to control her diet, Song Ya deliberately chose to leave through the south gate, because coming out from the north gate would pass by the Construction Road Night Market.

She knew she would never be able to escape the night market with an empty stomach.

The earphones started playing upbeat music, and Song Ya began jogging. Working for many years and just starting to run, she truly found it a bit hard, barely turning onto Jianxing Road, reaching Construction Road, when she felt breathless and thirsty.

Song Ya slowed down a bit, transitioning from running to brisk walking.

Walking, walking... stop!

Song Ya was somewhat surprised to see twelve hulking men by the roadside, "Coach Ma? What’s this?"

Ma Juntao was pulling at another coach, as that coach only took a half portion of noodles at a time, so Ma Juntao wanted to eat the other half, but the other was unwilling.

Upon hearing someone call him, Ma Juntao turned his head to look.

Oh dear! Isn’t this the weight-loss boot camp student we just enrolled yesterday?

This batch of night training camp recruited a total of six students. Ma Juntao promised a week-long training, ensuring they would lose around 5 pounds!

If there were no results, then a refund would be issued.

If effective, students could choose to register for the next camp, or conclude training.

Being caught by his student sitting in front of a street stall, Ma Juntao felt a little embarrassed and grinned, saying, "Oh... Ms. Song! It’s like this, we are so busy today that we haven’t had time to eat, so we decided to grab a quick bite. We still have training tonight."

Song Ya suspiciously pointed at the beef and noodles on the table, "Can you eat this so late?"

Ma Juntao firmly nodded, "Of course you can! Look, beef is high-quality protein, and the noodles are fine carbohydrates. As long as you keep the intake within moderation and add exercise, it’s absolutely okay."

Song Ya hadn’t eaten anything for dinner for the sake of effective weight loss.

Seeing so many beef steaks and noodles on the table made her a bit hungry too.

"What about me, can I eat it?"

Ma Juntao hesitated.

Thinking that Boss Cao was still monitoring, if he said no, Boss Cao might ask: Then why can you eat?

If so, their sneaking would be exposed!

So he said, "Of course, if you didn’t have dinner and also don’t eat too much, it’s fine. I have mentioned before, losing weight isn’t about not eating, but eating well, calculating daily intake and calorie burn."

Song Ya only heard the "of course" part of his speech.

Looking at the crowded table, she quickly ran to the food cart, "Boss, pack one..."

She said while checking the menu.

Finally, "Pack one T-bone beef noodles!"

After saying so, she didn’t forget to turn back to Ma Juntao, "Coach Ma, I’ll take it back to the gym to eat; you can come back after you finish eating, then we’ll start the training."

Ma Juntao nodded stiffly, "Alright, wait for me back there."

At the gym, Cao Tianrui, listening to the conversation over there, felt something was off, but couldn’t put his finger on it.

Oh, it’s just my gym’s students eating.

In that case, it’s fine, let them eat. After all, they paid for the membership.

Just make sure not to lose other interested students!

Yes, definitely!
