Chapter 761: Boss Chu Losing Weight

Translator: Lordbluefire

“Once I say it, it won’t be a surprise anymore.”

That’s what the voice on the other end of the phone said.

When Shen Ruojing asked that question, she already knew that Chu Cichen wouldn’t say it. It was just a casual inquiry, and seeing that he truly didn’t say anything, she didn’t press further.

She smiled and said, “A wedding can actually be simple. 1 don’t like it to be too complicated.”

“Yeah, I won’t invite too many people, just close friends, and family,” Chu Cichen said calmly. He then fell silent and continued, “Lately, I’ve been working out and thinking that being a little slimmer might look better.”

Shen Ruojing asked, “…Are you worried about your figure?”

“It’s not that, Jingjing, your figure is too good, I can’t fall behind… Besides, I’ve gained some weight in the past two years compared to before… Don’t you like ‘little puppy’ types?” Chu Cichen replied.

Shen Ruojing smirked, “You’re not fat, you’re well-built! 1 actually think you’re perfect now.”

He used to be a slim teenager.

Now, Chu Cichen truly resembled a man.

But thinking about what happened a few days ago, Shen Ruojing couldn’t help but rub her forehead and say, “You weren’t influenced by what your cousin said a few days ago, were you?”

After setting the wedding date, the Chu family treated it as a major event, and relatives from around the world returned home for it.

Chu Qianshu, the nerdy femalecousin, saw an old photo of Chu Cichen from six or seven years ago and suddenly said to Shen Ruojing, “Sister-in-law, I finally understand why you were so devoted to him back then. He really looked like a handsome boy who stepped out of a manga!”

Coincidentally, Chu Cichen, who had just entered the house, heard this and immediately asked, “And now?”

Chu Qianshu laughed, “Now he’s matured and has become a bit greasy, but who doesn’t love the little brother type? Little brothers are just too adorable!”

Chu Cichen clenched his jaw. He wanted to say that Song Chen was him from six years ago, and moreover… a clone wouldn’t grow up; he would always have the same body as he did six years ago.

Since that day, even though Chu Cichen didn’t say it out loud, he became conscious of his physique.

He didn’t go to the gym because the more he worked out, the fatter he felt.

He starved himself instead.

During meals, even though he wanted to eat, he would forcefully claim to have no appetite…

In just a few days, he actually lost several pounds, resembling his physique when he pretended to be Song Chen and accompanied himself to Country A six years ago.

However, back then, Chu Cichen was injured, which caused him to become thin. But now… he was genuinely losing weight due to hunger!

Every time Shen Ruojing tried to persuade him, he would agree on the surface, but as soon as she turned her head, he would stick to his self-imposed starvation!

They ended up making everyone cry and laugh.

This man was more dramatic than a woman!

After hanging up the phone, Shen Ruojing helplessly went downstairs and saw Matriarch Chu looking at her with a smile, “He’s not having dinner with you again?”

Shen Ruojing nodded.

Matriarch Chu couldn’t help but chuckle and said, “This person… I don’t know how his willpower is so strong. When he says he wants to lose weight, he barely eats anything, as if he’s about to vomit. I really want to learn from him. If I could eat less, my figure might be better too.”

After all, Matriarch Chu had gained some weight in her lower abdomen due to aging.

However, Shen Ruojing laughed and said, “Why are you becoming like him? Your figure is already great!”

Matriarch Chu shook her head helplessly.

At the dining table, the three little ones were already seated. Chu Tianye’s eyes wandered around, and he suddenly said, “Mommy, will you receive a lot of wedding gifts at your wedding?”

After speaking, the little guy looked at Matriarch Chu and said, “Grandmother, will you compete with me for the wedding gifts?”

Matriarch Chu immediately smiled and said, “Who would compete with you? Those gifts are not for you anyway!”

“I know, they are for Mommy and Daddy! But eventually, they will be mine too! Those things belong to them…”

As the words “inheritance” were about to slip out of the little one’s mouth, Matriarch Chu quickly stuffed a piece of braised pork into his mouth and said, “Ptooey! Ptooey! We are celebrating such a joyous occasion recently, don’t talk nonsense!”

After saying that, Matriarch Chu glared at Chu Xiaomeng beside her and said directly, “Xiaomeng, put the vegetables you picked for your brother back into his bowl and eat them yourself! Last time when we saw the nutritionist, what did the doctor say? He said you are not eating enough vegetables!”

Chu Xiaomeng reluctantly took back the vegetables she had secretly passed over and couldn’t help but sigh, and said, “Grandma, Mommy, I really don’t like to eat. If 1 don’t like it, it means my body doesn’t need that nutrition. This stuff tastes so bad, I’ll vomit if 1 eat it-”

“It’s not that bad, I think you’re just making excuses!”

But Chu Xiaomeng sighed, “If it’s delicious, how could I not eat it? 1 don’t want to eat it because 1 feel nauseous after eating it. And if I forcefully eat it and then vomit, it will damage the gastric mucosa, which is even worse for the body-”

Matriarch Chu looked at the little one and felt that it was really difficult to handle children.

One by one, they would come up with big theories to argue with you.

On the other hand, Shen Ruojing was slightly stunned.

Unknowingly, a sense of unease suddenly rose in her heart..
