Chapter 4 Restraint and Persistence

“Good morning, Xiao Song. I have lost a lot of weight recently! I am also energetic.”

With a warm smile on his face, Tang Song greeted the colleagues he met from time to time.

Put the lunch box in the refrigerator, add a large cup of hot water, sit down at the workstation, open the laptop and start studying.

High-quality sleep makes him full of energy. Coupled with weight loss, his whole person has changed significantly.

Many female colleagues also asked him for menus for fat-reducing meals.

Now he has a very good attitude. He goes to work at 9 o'clock every day and gets off work on time at 6 o'clock.

Work should be done in moderation. It is absolutely impossible to work overtime. The main focus is on improving yourself.

From time to time, I will go for a walk in the corridor to avoid sitting for a long time.

During lunch, Zhao Yue suddenly came over.

He glanced at Tang Song’s lunch box and sighed: “Brother Song, your fat-reducing meals are getting better and better, they look very appetizing!”

“Both. I just followed the instructions, and the taste is just average.”

“I don’t believe it.” Zhao Yue covered her mouth and chuckled, then picked up a piece of shrimp with chopsticks and threw it into her mouth. "It's not as bad as you said, it tastes pretty good!"

After saying that, he took another cup of yogurt and put it on Tang Song's table, patted his shoulder and said, "Come on Brother Song, try to lose weight as soon as possible! Pull up the average appearance of the boys in our department!"

"No problem." Tang Song smiled and made an OK gesture.

Looking at each other, Zhao Yue seemed a little embarrassed, quickly looked away, and sat back at her desk.

Tang Song looked at her back and couldn't help but shake his head.

When he first joined the job, he thought this female colleague liked him.

After all, her speech and behavior are very close, and there seems to be no sense of distance.

But several things that happened later made him gradually realize that Zhao Yue was just raising fish.

What she liked should be that he has good technical skills and can help her at work.

In terms of appearance, Zhao Yue is not very beautiful. After makeup, she can get 6 points.

I am in my early 20s, outgoing, neither fat nor thin, with a monthly salary of 6k.

However, even such a girl who is not outstanding has many suitors and lickers around her.

You can receive gifts and flowers every holiday, and your circle of friends is rich and colorful.

This also led to her always having an inexplicable sense of superiority.

Probably in her standards, Tang and Song Dynasties were classified into the ranks of dog lickers by default.

From time to time, like just now, I would throw a bone to maintain intimacy.

……

It was around 3 o’clock in the afternoon, and my body was in a fasting state again.

Tang Song exercised on the elliptical machine for half an hour and broke out in a sweat.

Not long after I returned to my workstation, I felt a strong sense of hunger.

His eyes unconsciously fell on the snacks of his colleagues around him, and his throat rolled up and down.

Potato chips, ham, chicken feet with pickled peppers, crispy noodles, chocolate...

They are all his favorite foods!

Tang Song licked his lips and tried to divert his attention.

The feeling of hunger during this period is the most unbearable, but as long as you get over it, your body will begin to burn fat, stabilize blood sugar levels, and your hunger will be reduced a lot.

After persisting for half an hour, the colleagues around me suddenly started discussing afternoon tea.

Tang Song glanced at the work group, and sure enough he saw the notice just issued by the human resources department.

【Dear all: It’s delicious afternoon tea time again. Thank you all for your hard work in daily work. Cake and milk tea are prepared in the activity area. Come and eat! 】

There are also a few pictures below.

Fragrant cream cakes, golden and crispy croissants, large cups of pearl milk tea, and chocolate-covered waffles.

The employee benefits of Jinxiu Trading have always been good. Free afternoon tea is provided every Friday, which is a kind of humanistic care.

The colleague Wang Chaoyang next to him waved to him, "Let's go, Tang Song! If you go late, you won't be able to grab the delicious food."

Tang Song stared at the photo and swallowed hard.

【Sweet and smooth cream, soft and delicious cakes, butter-covered croissants! 】

【If you only eat one or two pieces, it will definitely be fine! 】

Tang Song stood up slightly, then bit his lower lip hard and sat down again.

He said with difficulty: "No, I have lost weight recently. You guys should eat and drink well."

The desire to complete the task finally defeated the temptation of delicious food.

6 o’clock in the evening.

Tang Song closed his laptop and got off work on time.

After getting through that heart-wrenching hunger, I feel much more relaxed now.

When I walked out of the office building, the April wind blew in my face.

Tang Song took a deep breath and jogged against the orange sunset.

Back to Qingxin’s home, we started preparing for the long-awaited dinner.

Boiled spinach (200g) + steamed fish (150g) + a bowl of brown rice.

The setting sun gradually disappeared on the horizon, and the night enveloped the entire city.

The lights in the living room were lit.

Tang and Song Dynasties sat at the dining table, silently feeling the satisfaction brought by food and thinking about the future.
