Chapter 28 - Pretentious

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

After Zhao Shengnan left, Zhang Cheng visited his Heavenly Dimension.

Zhang Cheng had been busy setting up that training room for the past few days. Fortunately, it paid off splendidly, and Zhao Shengnan was so moved that she finally relinquished her body to him.

However, he still had to keep track of his time-accelerated crops.

After looking around for a moment, a hint of joy flashed in Zhang Cheng’s eyes.

The ginseng that had been planted for nearly two months had all turned into spiritual herbs.

This made Zhang Cheng very happy, but he wasn’t in a hurry to consume all of them.

After all, this spiritual herb was very good, but were superior versions possible?

Even if superior versions did not exist, if they continued to grow, would they grow in potency?

After all, wasn’t ginseng supposed to be more effective, the older it was?

Zhang Cheng casually glanced at the little leaf red sandalwood. It was progressing as planned. He harvested and replanted the non-stop 1-day and 10-day ginseng.

Zhang Cheng exited the space.

Just as Zhang Cheng was about to put on his clothes and get up, his phone rang.

After the call was connected, he realized that it was Zhao Shengnan.

“Did you leave anything behind?” Zhang Cheng turned his head and looked around, but he didn’t find anything.

After running in the morning, Zhao Shengnan went to the training room that Zhang Cheng had prepared for her with much excitement.

The equipment in the training room was closer to the top-of-the-line, which was why it was worth hundreds of thousands.

Moreover, the standard boxing ring in the middle of the room made Zhao Shengnan even more excited.

She had always dreamed of becoming a professional boxer.

However, when Zhao Shengnan arrived at the training room, she was surprised to find that the door was already open.

Just when Zhao Shengnan thought that his training room had been robbed, she casually threw his gym bag on the ground, stretched her body, and prepared for a big fight, when she realized that the situation was not as she had thought.

In the training room, there was a man, a woman, and an aunt.

Both the man and the woman were wearing sportswear, and they looked very neat.

The aunt was wearing an apron, rubber gloves, a broom in one hand, and a rag in the other hand. Her sharp eyes scanned left and right, and once she found anything dirty, she immediately rushed over to clean it up. She ensured that the entire training room was clean.

The man and woman took the initiative to welcome Zhao Shengnan after she entered.

“You are Ms. Zhao, right? I am Hu Zhen, she is Gu Yingxia. We were invited by Mr. Zhang. I am a dietitian, and Gu Yingxia is a trainer,” the man said courteously.

Zhao Shengnan was stunned. A dietitian? A trainer? Even if she was in the provincial team, she didn’t have such personal treatment.

Zhao Shengnan suppressed the strange emotions in her heart and dialed Zhang Cheng’s number. She was still arranging her thoughts.

Zhang Cheng’s voice came over.

“Zhang Cheng, what are you doing?” Zhao Shengnan ignored Zhang Cheng’s words. She didn’t even know why she was angry, but she felt that she should be angry now. Or rather, she should be angry.

Zhang Cheng was stunned when he heard that. After thinking for a while, he understood. She did not like being coddled.

After all, people were all very pretentious. But more than that, she was in a panic.

Zhao Shengnan was at a loss of where to even begin repaying Zhang Cheng after receiving so much help from him.

As for when she became a professional boxer in the future, was she to compensate Zhang Cheng with her salary, bonuses, and other things?

Don’t be ridiculous. Women’s boxing matches never reached that level. Even the income of a top female boxer could not be compared to that of a journeyman male boxer.

After all, the popularity of boxing matches between the two genders was not even in the same dimension.

As for the matter of being boyfriend and girlfriend, they would eventually have to get married and become husband and wife in the future. Zhao Shengnan had no such thoughts because Zhang Cheng was not a well-behaved person.

Zhao Shengnan felt that she did not even need to voice this out.

While he was infatuated with her now, he would definitely get tired of her in the future.

When it came to accepting this man’s help with a clear conscience, Zhao Shengnan herself could never even pass this hurdle.

She was not the type to rely on a man’s character.

“How about giving birth to a child for me in the future?” Zhang Cheng suddenly asked.

Zhao Shengnan was stunned when she heard that. Then, her face turned red and she roared angrily, “You bastard!” Then, she hung up the phone.

However, Zhao Shengnan was immediately stunned again. The awkwardness seemed to have subsided because of this sentence. At the same time, she also had the thought that this b*stard was not going to take advantage of her.

“B*stard.” After cursing in a low voice, Zhao Shengnan simply started training.

Zhang Cheng put on his clothes and went home.

Xiang Xiang’s relatives had already left. Although Zhao Shengnan’s long legs had been a heavenly experience, he had held himself back. In order to take care of Zhao Shengnan, Zhang Cheng had been holding back and did not dare get to the rough pounding just yet, otherwise, Zhao Shengnan might not even be able to walk today, let alone do morning exercises. How could she have the strength to scold him?

When he returned home, Xiang Xiang happened to be practicing yoga.

Her life was very simple now. She cuddled up to Zhang Cheng when he was at home. When Zhang Cheng went out, she would basically practice yoga in the morning and dance in the afternoon. If she wanted to rest, she would go out and buy some clothes for Zhang Cheng.

After all, Zhang Cheng often took her out to buy clothes. Once he bought clothes, he would not stop at just one or two sets.

When she noticed that Zhang Cheng had returned, she immediately stopped her practice and jogged over to welcome him.

She took the sports bag from Zhang Cheng’s hands and was very obedient.

Zhang Cheng gently kissed Xiang Xiang’s forehead and whispered, “Have the relatives left?”

Xiang Xiang noticed that Zhang Cheng did not dislike her and was still as affectionate as before. Her heart suddenly felt like it had just been dipped in honey and she hurriedly nodded.

Zhang Cheng smiled gently and patted Xiang Xiang on the head.

Xiang Xiang was very obedient. She also noticed that he liked her being obedient, so she behaved more obediently and even completely surrendered her free will.

In the beginning, Zhang Cheng did not notice it. It was only recently that he vaguely noticed this problem. However, Zhang Cheng still hoped that Xiang Xiang could have her own emotions, thoughts, likes, and so on, it did not matter if it was completely contrary to his expectations.

Because he was not a domineering person, and he valued freedom of thought.

But at the same time, Xiang Xiang’s cautiousness also made it so that even if Zhang Cheng took the initiative to open his mouth, it might not have any effect.

Therefore, Zhang Cheng planned to take it slow. At the very least, he wanted Xiang Xiang to stop forcing herself into this submissive cocoon.

“What did you eat this morning?” Zhang Cheng asked as he changed into his slippers.

“Sister Zhang cooked millet congee and fried eggs. I bought some buns and cut some pickles,” Xiang Xiang said as she put away the sports bag.

Zhang Cheng nodded. “Are we going to eat ‘Buddha jumps over the wall’ tonight?”

Xiang Xiang couldn’t help but swallow her saliva when she heard that. Then, she nodded obediently.

This really wasn’t a question of whether she was obedient or not. It was just that the “Buddha jumps over the wall” that she had eaten once was really too good. Even now when she thought about it, she still couldn’t stop craving for it.

Zhang Cheng smiled lightly and made reservations.

It was unwise to head out now with Xiang Xiang for Zhao Shengnan may not be understanding about this whole polygamy gig, but Zhang Cheng put those worries to the back of his mind in the meantime.

He would deal with it if it came to being.

Before they knew it, it was already afternoon.

After resting for a while, Xiang Xiang practiced dancing and yoga. She had gained fitness and more flexibility, allowing for many more positions.

Zhang Cheng was very satisfied.

However, just as the two of them were about to go out, a phone call came.

“Little Cheng, do you still have ginseng over there?” Yan Xu, Master Yan, called..
