Yanjing Tiancheng, the Grand Flat.

The bright May sunlight streamed through the large floor-to-ceiling windows, warmly filling the study.

"Ring, ring, ring—" The phone rang.

Tang Song set down his work, glanced at the screen, and saw it was Xie Shuyu.

He answered the call, "Hello, Sister Shuyu."

A rich, magnetic voice responded, "Good morning, Xiao Song. I've tested the mini-program, and it perfectly meets my expectations. It's fantastic! I didn't expect you to finish it so quickly—in just four days!"

Tang Song smiled, "That's because you, Sister Shuyu, are an excellent product manager. The requirements were clear, so it was easy to get it done quickly."

"Haha, you know how to flatter," Xie Shuyu chuckled before continuing, "There's one more thing. The investment conference is coming up in a few days, and our mini-program will be a key part of the presentation. I plan to upgrade the interface to match the café's decor."

"That sounds great. The previous interface used a generic template, so it definitely could be more polished."

"I've contacted a professional design company through a friend to redesign the UI. Are you available this afternoon to come by the company and coordinate with the designer?"

"I'm available."

"That's great. Thank you for your hard work. Bye-bye."

"Bye-bye."

Before hanging up, Tang Song checked the time—11:20 AM. It was perfect timing since he had planned to go to the gym at Huayun Center, which was on his way.

Over the past few days, he has developed the new features for the mini-program. Yesterday, he shared the test version with Xie Shuyu, which seemed to work well.

The new features weren't complicated—he had completed them in half a day. Besides this, he had already started developing Songmei Fashion's OA (Office Automation) system, using the ready-made code from his previous company in the capital. The main modules covered HR, finance, inventory, contracts, and roles, which should meet the company's initial needs. He even had his server, so deploying with Docker would be quick, and the system could go live soon.

Tang Song was confident in his technical skills, which were more reliable than outsourcing the project.

Closing his laptop, Tang Song began preparing his lunch for the day: pan-seared steak, stir-fried broccoli with mushrooms, scrambled eggs, and rice. He arranged everything neatly on a plate, sprinkled some black sesame seeds, took a photo, and started eating.

As he shared his transformation journey on Little Red Book, he developed the habit of taking photos of his meals.

While eating, Tang Song opened Douyin to check his account. His current follower count stood at 22,476—an impressive increase of 7,142 followers since yesterday. The latest fingerstyle guitar video had over 2 million views, 90,000 likes, and 10,000 comments. The combination of luxurious floor-to-ceiling windows, the hands of a heartthrob, and high-level guitar skills had become a killer formula. Despite the lack of marketing, the video had gone viral, and he was sure it would continue to bring in more revenue.

He then checked Little Red Book, where he posted a new video about an hour ago. The unread messages had already reached 99+, showing a positive response. His follower count there was 2,210—though not as high as Douyin, it steadily increased.

He checked the details of his title [Popular Me].

[Current cash reward: ¥1,243,300 (Total: ¥2,458,600)]

Seeing those numbers, Tang Song felt a surge of excitement. No wonder this title was a cash cow—it had quickly brought his cash reserves back to over a million!

He immediately withdrew the funds.

"Ding—" The text message notification sounded.

[Balance: ¥1,673,400]

He quickly finished his lunch and opened the system shop. The [Beginner Bone Strengthening Potion] was glowing with a golden light—constantly tempting him.

He bought it without hesitation.

Tang Song then sat on the living room sofa, selected the item, and used it immediately.

His constitution increased by 2 points.

Immediately, a thick, viscous liquid filled his mouth, almost solid in texture—similar to the bone marrow he often ate with lamb bones, though the taste was peculiar.

"Gulp—" The potion slid down his throat and into his stomach.

A faint heat spread from his core outward.

His entire skeleton began to tingle and itch, an uncomfortable sensation that made him start jumping in place to do a fat-burning exercise.

As he continued exercising, his body grew hotter, and the tingling sensation gradually faded, replaced by a sense of comfort.

Tang Song stopped, focusing on how his body felt. The most noticeable change was increased strength and stability and improved posture—he stood taller and straighter.

Bones are the body's essential support structure, and strengthened bones can transmit and distribute force more effectively.

Clenching his fist, he felt the explosive power in his muscles and tendons. He even had a wild thought that he could squat while carrying Wen Ruan and still have enough energy to dribble a basketball.

After indulging in this fantasy momentarily, he opened his profile to check his stats.

[Player: Tang Song (43' Charm)]

[Role: CEO of Songmei Fashion]

[Height: 182CM, Weight: 82KG]

[Constitution: 62, Endurance: 60, Agility: 54, Insight: 78]

[Assets: Balance: ¥1,673,400]

His constitution had increased by 2 points, and his charm score had reached 43. Moreover, his body weight had increased by 2 kilograms due to increased bone density.

...

At 12:10 PM, Tang Song entered his walk-in closet and changed into Under Armour workout clothes: a black long-sleeved training shirt paired with dark gray athletic pants, both lightweight, breathable, and quick-drying. He put on a pair of sneakers, grabbed a backpack, and headed to Huayun Center on foot.

Both locations were in the city center, and the distance was just over two kilometers—perfect for an aerobic warm-up.

And since the [Magic Protein Powder] was still in effect, every minute of exercise could contribute to more muscle growth, making it essential to maximize this golden period.

...

Dips on parallel bars, barbell bench presses, incline dumbbell presses, cable tricep pushdowns—four sets of each exercise, with 10-12 reps per set.

He finished the workout in exactly one hour.

Perhaps due to the [Beginner Bone Strengthening Potion], his physical condition was much better than yesterday. Feeling ambitious, Tang Song decided to add some abdominal exercises.

Normally, doing too much anaerobic exercise isn't beneficial—overdoing it can harm the body and reduce the workout's effectiveness.

However, with the system's enhancements, Tang Song could ignore these limits.

He could push himself to the limit as long as he had the stamina, knowing the [Recovery Potion] would have his back.

Improving himself is always the best investment—he was already looking forward to seeing his abs.

After the workout, he took a quick shower.

At 1:50 PM, Tang Song walked out of Huayun Center B Tower, feeling refreshed. The soft afternoon breeze gently brushed his face as he looked up at the blue sky, the lush green trees, and the long-legged girls showing off their summer outfits.

Tang Song felt his mood soar.

He pulled out his Mate 40 phone and started capturing the beauty of life. First, he took a post-workout selfie, and then, as he walked toward Tower A, he snapped photos of the scenic surroundings.

"Vroom, vroom, vroom—" The sound of an engine roared from behind him.

A sleek white motorcycle sped in his direction.

The bike's smooth, full lines exuded a dynamic attitude. The sharp headlights and sleek front face looked cool and powerful.

Of course, what caught Tang Song's eye more than the bike was the rider. Follow current ɴᴏᴠᴇʟs on novel※fire.net

Wearing gray tight-fitting pants and a black U-neck top, her body leaned slightly over the motorcycle, showcasing an incredible waist-to-hip ratio.

She was also wearing a black helmet, black leather boots, and a black backpack, strikingly contrasting with the glacier-white motorcycle.

As she passed by, Tang Song couldn't resist pressing the shutter button to take a photo.

He recognized the bike as the popular Suzuki GSX250—a model he had always liked. He couldn't help but think how perfectly sexiness and sport bikes complemented each other.

The motorcycle came to a smooth stop in a parking space across from Tower A, and the rider gracefully dismounted.

Her figure was truly outstanding—broad shoulders, a slim back, long legs, a narrow waist, and a perky butt.

She was even more impressive than the female riders Tang Song followed on Douyin. Now he wondered what her face looked like, hoping it would match her body.

The rider soon removed her helmet and tidied her slightly tousled long hair.

Tang Song happened to walk past her and couldn't resist looking at her face.

She was stunning—delicate and coldly beautiful, with classic features that fit the image of an icy beauty. However, she didn't seem very old, probably in her early twenties.

Overall, she had a very cool and stylish presence.

After admiring her for a few moments, Tang Song, feeling pleased, continued walking toward the entrance of Tower A.

Meanwhile, the female rider frowned, clearly displeased.

She didn't have a good impression of the guy who had just taken a sneaky photo of her.
