Chapter 277: Chapter 271: Wanting Boss Chen to Stand Up and Pedal on Me_2

"Wow, he can pedal that hard on level 8. Damn, I wish I could turn into that spinning bike and have Boss Chen Mo pedal me hard!"

Suddenly, there was a commotion at the scene. A level 8 spinning bike is considered a tough challenge for ordinary people, but under Chen Mo’s feet, it seemed like it had no resistance at all as he pedaled crazily.

As he kept pedaling, Chen Mo gradually slowed down, and then his legs stopped exerting force.

Xiao Xin finally breathed a sigh of relief, jogged over out of curiosity, and glanced at the display, "Damn, 15 kilometers?" 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂

Even on level 1, an ordinary person would struggle to pedal that far. For someone like Xiao Xin who works out every day, pedaling 15 kilometers in one go is definitely a challenge beyond level 4.

"15 kilometers is just the limit for the oysters, maybe not even Boss Xiao Chen’s limit..."

Ma Juntao quipped sourly from the side.

Only then did Xiao Xin turn his head to look, and sure enough, the plate was now empty, with forty or fifty oysters eaten clean by Chen Mo.

Undoubtedly, if there were still oysters on that plate, Chen Mo could probably keep pedaling.

Because at the moment, Boss Chen showed no sign of exhaustion, instead, he looked somewhat excited!

"Which one is the hardest?"

Cao Tianrui’s mouth twitched, "Boss Xiao Chen, you’re not being fair. I paid for your barbecue, yet you come and challenge yourself and eat it all. How does this add up?"

Chen Mo looked around and said, "Forget it, after eating so many oysters, let’s have some skewers."

His own grilled lamb skewers are absolutely delicious. Chen Mo only got to eat a few the first day, and after that every time he finished grilling, customers would buy them all, leaving him no opportunity to eat any.

Now it was perfect.

Not only could he eat, but it was free.

The food was already a solid 10 out of 10, but with the "freebie" attribute added, it was a sure 12 out of 10!

After a stroll, Chen Mo finally chose the treadmill.

The reward for this piece of equipment was grilled skewers. Previously, Xiao Xin had also opted for the treadmill, but he ran only 500 meters to get to more of the barbecue sooner.

Standing on the treadmill, Chen Mo glanced at the countdown of a stubborn toxin in his mind, with less than twenty minutes remaining.

Forget it.

Chen Mo stepped off the treadmill and moved to the barbell lifting area.

"See what I mean? I admit Boss Xiao Chen has a good build, but going from biking to running isn’t something normal people can do. His legs must be shaking by now; he’s probably just putting on a brave face," Xiao Xin analyzed nearby.

Unnoticed, members from Yuan Dongli Fitness Center had also arrived. The one who’d fantasized about becoming the spinning bike was none other than a 38-year-old aunt from the yoga class.

Upon hearing this, the aunt rolled her eyes at Xiao Xin, "Just because you can’t do it, doesn’t mean others can’t. I think Boss Xiao Chen is doing great; he pedaled that level 8 bike really fast just now..."

The more she talked, the softer her voice and gaze became, and in the end, it was almost seductive.

Honestly, who doesn’t like a tall, well-built man in a suit who stands at 1.8 meters?

Listening to this made Xiao Xin shiver with discomfort, thinking to himself, "Just wait, no matter how strong Boss Xiao Chen is, there’s no way he... Holy crap!"

Xiao Xin suddenly widened his eyes, looking at Chen Mo incredulously.

"What’s he going to do!"

Chen Mo’s actions indeed caused another commotion.

Dumbbells!

Chen Mo had chosen a 20-kilogram dumbbell from another challenge area. Though it looked small, it was actually very heavy.

Ma Juntao and his group were almost dumbfounded; this was a 20-kilogram dumbbell!

Normally, beginners entering a gym are advised to use dumbbells between three to five kilograms to train muscles. But Chen Mo started with 20 kilograms; is he even human?

"No, Boss Xiao Chen must have trained before; otherwise, there’s no way he could handle this much."

"The reward for 10 shoulder presses with a 20-kilogram dumbbell is a grilled eggplant, and Boss Xiao Chen must be craving eggplant!"

"What! Boss Xiao Chen is standing on the treadmill holding a dumbbell; could he be trying to...?"

Sure enough.

Chen Mo effortlessly turned on the treadmill, holding the dumbbell in his left hand and began to exercise.

The treadmill was moving slowly, primarily to coordinate with the arm movements; left leg steps forward as the dumbbell lifts, right leg steps forward as the dumbbell comes down.

In this way, he completed a shoulder press every two steps.

Ma Juntao was holding a plate of skewers, and the little cook held a plate of grilled eggplant. Both stood nearby, in disbelief.

After 10 shoulder presses, the little cook dumbfoundedly tore off a piece of eggplant flesh and fed it to Chen Mo.

Just like before, Chen Mo ate the eggplant and casually tossed the chopsticks aside, then discarded the dumbbell.

Holding a plate, he continued to eat while running.

The eggplant was tender and glutinous; the garlic aroma pervasive, the charcoal flavor hidden beneath the eggplant’s sweetness, and a gentle chew made the eggplant seem as if it had melted halfway into juice.

"Not bad, but one eggplant is enough, more would be boring."

There are many ways to cook eggplant, but getting it tasty really depends on the seasoning.

For example, garlic eggplant is a cold dish with garlic flavor, there’s also braised eggplant which is sweet and sour, and Sichuan-style spicy eggplant too. In essence, eggplant has little inherent flavor, so whatever you cook it with, it takes on that flavor.

Changing the taste of eggplant depends on different cooking methods, coupled with specific seasonings.

Honestly, when cooked well, it’s really delicious; when not, it can indeed be awful!

After eating an eggplant, Chen Mo had already run 1,500 meters.
