Chapter 161

After finishing her run and stretching on the way back, Zhou Ziyou was already so hungry that her front was sticking to her back. "I'm starving," she said.

Gray Tail replied, "There's a breakfast place up ahead. What do you want to eat?"

Zhou Ziyou shook her head. "Not outside food. I'll cook myself when I get back." She felt that the soybean milk from outside places was too sweet, and the fried dough sticks were too oily and high in calories, not to mention the steamed buns.

Then...

Gray Tail looked at the plate of boiled meat in front of him, then at the bowl of boiled vegetables and two boiled eggs in front of Zhou Ziyou, and remained silent for a second.

"Are you sure you want to eat this?" This woman usually preferred foods with a heavy, salty, and greasy taste, but now this...

"It's low in calories, the fastest way to lose weight," Zhou Ziyou said, like a tiger eating grass, putting the vegetables into her mouth and chewing with a bland expression.

Gray Tail realized that Zhou Ziyou was serious. She had indeed started controlling her diet, complaining about being hungry all day, then silently getting up to run the next day.

After a week of Zhou Ziyou's bland diet and exercise, Gray Tail saw her step off the weighing scale and throw her head back in wild laughter.

"Hahahahahahaha, lost two pounds, not bad, not bad, keep it up."

As soon as she finished speaking, her stomach let out a huge growling noise, as if crying pitifully.

Gray Tail felt that... this wasn't a good thing...

Sure enough, the next day, as he ate his usual meat, he noticed the woman staring at the meat in his bowl.

Three days later, during her morning run, Zhou Ziyou experienced low blood sugar.

As she ran, everything in front of her grew darker and darker, and she panted, thinking, 'Why is the sky turning black...'

Her speed slowed down, and her vision grew darker and darker.

Gray Tail grabbed the woman as she was about to collapse, his pupils contracting. "You..."

Zhou Ziyou gripped his arm tightly, her face already pale. "I... I want to throw up..."

But nothing came out.

The next second, she was scooped up in his arms, and Gray Tail ran with her to the left, where there was a small hospital.

A moment later, the two of them were scolded by the doctor.

"Is this how you lose weight? Eating boiled vegetables? Can you eat boiled vegetables for the rest of your life? You're harming your own body."

The doctor looked at Gray Tail. "And you! You're her partner, right? You don't keep an eye on her and just let her do whatever she wants?"

Gray Tail's expression grew serious. At this point, his status didn't matter. The doctor was right - he had chosen to listen to Zhou Ziyou and remained silent, but it had also led her to the hospital.

"Yes, ma'am, I was wrong," Zhou Ziyou quickly admitted her mistake.

The two of them left the hospital.

Gray Tail lowered his gaze, his tone somewhat somber. "I'm sorry."

"Hey, hey, hey, don't be like that! It's not your fault!" Zhou Ziyou shook her head and sighed. "Don't listen to what the doctor said. It's me who was in too much of a hurry to succeed."

But Gray Tail felt that... he should have kept a closer eye on her.

The entire way back, he remained very quiet.

At the front door, Zhou Ziyou apologized, "Really, it's not your problem. I'm sorry you got scolded by the doctor."

"You're not fat..." Gray Tail stared at her, then quickly averted his gaze. "Don't need to lose weight, don't eat so little anymore."

"Mm, don't worry, I got scared too, I won't do it again," Zhou Ziyou said, not really registering Gray Tail's comment that she wasn't fat - their standards of beauty differed.

Gray Tail really wanted to ask her why she was so eager to lose weight when she already looked great and cute the way she was.

Then the next afternoon, he understood.

Zhou Ziyou was wearing the black velvet pearl long dress she had bought last time, with a pair of high heels. She had done an exquisite makeup look with a matte, pale red lipstick.

Gray Tail had just come back from outside when he opened the door and saw the woman putting on her high heels in the foyer. His gray eyes widened slightly.

"Ah, you're back. I'm heading out," Zhou Ziyou said.

Having lost six pounds that month from dieting, now weighing 119 pounds, Zhou Ziyou's figure in the fitted long dress and high heels looked slimmer and more slender than before.

Gray Tail stared at her unblinkingly, stunned for a moment before asking, "Where are you going?"
