After throwing a tantrum, Normans lay onto the sofa to rest.
Chen Zhao massaged his face. “Next time you use your nails, I’ll toss you to Hawai’i and you can swim back.”
“I’ll use a knife next time.”
“Where will you hide your knife? In your saggy meat?”
After these days of hard work, Normans had lost a lot of fat. Her skin was now loose and saggy. When she was done with the weight loss plan, she would definitely need plastic surgery.
“Get up and put the shirt on. We’ll run back.”
Normans put on the shirt and started running behind Chen Zhao. “Hey, *sshole. What do I have to do to get skinny faster?”
“Oh?” Chen Zhao turned around to look at her. “Are you sure?”
“Yeah, I want to hurry up. I don’t want to keep getting tortured by you pervert.”
“Then I’ll change the schedule starting tomorrow.”
“No, today.”
“Are you sure?”
“I’m sure.”
“The two most effective ways to lose weight is just dieting and exercise. The food should be nutritious with low carbs. Exercise should be consistent.”
“Then I won’t eat and I’ll increase the exercise.”
“No, you still have to eat. If you exercise without replenishing sugar. It’ll lead to low blood sugar. That’s why I have you eat an apple before starting. When you exercise, you truly start to burn fat after around 30 minutes. You first start to burn glucose, which moves fat. Without glucose, you won’t even be able to move.”
“What did you add in the water you gave me yesterday?”
“Sugar. Enough sugar can speed up the burning of fat and act as a stimulant.”
“Only sugar?”
“What do you think?”
“You better not give me any drugs. Otherwise, I’ll make life unbearable for you in L.A.”
“How old are you? You still like playing make pretend.” Chen Zhao rolled his eyes.
This was Normans’ first time requesting to add more exercise. It was a big improvement. This also lessened Chen Zhao’s workload.
Normans suspected that Chen Zhao put something in her water. It was actually a tiny bit of a strength potion. It was a very small amount, but it could make Normans stronger.
It also used up more energy though. It was like how Chen Zhao and David now ate two or three times more than regular people.
Normans couldn’t eat that much though, so she had to digest herself and turn fat into energy.
Chen Zhao always had Normans do aerobic exercise. Jogging and swimming were the most common aerobic sports.
Non-aerobic exercise was mostly used for building muscle, which Normans didn’t need. It could also cause muscle fatigue and produce more lactic acid. This wasn’t suitable for Normans to continue exercising, so aerobic sports were the best for her.
After returning to the manor, Normans weighed herself. She was now 258 pounds, more than 20 pounds lighter than yesterday.
Even Normans was shocked at this weight loss speed. Thinking a bit, she started running around Carrie’s lawn. She kept running even without Chen Zhao beside her.
Doman was surprised at his daughter’s changes in both mind and body. She was like a new person each day. Doman kind of regretted not calling Chen Zhao earlier.
…
A taxi stopped before Chen Zhao and a familiar guy poked his head out.

“Hi, Chen.”
“Vincent, how come you’re still driving taxis?”
“I do it occasionally.” Vincent smiled brightly. “Going home?”
Chen Zhao got in the car. “How’s everything? How’s being an actor?”
“Because of Mr. Steven’s recommendation, I acted in four movies and one TV show. They haven’t aired yet though. The TV show is Deep Sea. It’s airing next week on BBC. I’m a scientist in there. Chen, remember to tune in.”
“Sure.” Chen Zhao nodded with a smile.
With Vincent’s current status, he probably could only have roles that lived for two episodes. It wasn’t that Chen Zhao looked down on Vincent. It was just the reality of the film and TV industry.
“Do you have a management company now?”
“Not yet.”
“You should find one as soon as possible. That way, you can get even better resources.”
“I want to, but no company wants me.”
Chen Zhao thought for a moment. “If you don’t mind, I can help you ask, but I can’t promise anything.”
“Chen, you even know people from management companies?”
“One of my patients.”
Vincent brought Chen Zhao to his house and didn’t take his money.
When Chen Zhao went in, he saw that Fali had already cooked dinner as if she was a good wife.
Fali kissed Chen Zhao lightly. “Wash your hands. Eat dinner.”
They were both used to sitting on the couch or ground in the living room to eat. It was the same even when David and the others were here.
“Fali, I need to tell you something.”
“What? Don’t tell me you cheated on our first day.”
“Oh, please. I wanted to tell you that I bought the land around Mirror Lake.”
“You really bought it?”
“Yes.”
“How much?”
“Four hundred thousand dollars. I already paid a $100,000 deposit.”
“So you plan on settling down here?”
“Yeah, I plan on building a house next to Mirror Lake. A big house, so White Ma and Black Ma can run freely and play in the water.”
“Oh, Robio studies architecture. You can have him help design.”
Chen Zhao’s eyes brightened. If that was the case, he could save on the design cost. He was counting his pennies now because he really didn’t have much cash left.
He had $200,000 at most. Plus, he had to pave an asphalt road before building a house. Mirror Lake was two kilometers from the road outside. It wasn’t far, but if he wanted to build a house, the construction trucks had to go in. He would need a road if he wanted to live there too.
Two kilometers of an asphalt road along with the manpower would cost around $200,000.
Asphalt was twice as expensive, but it had better plasticity. Of course, Chen Zhao would also earn more money after a while.
He actually could start the construction now. It wasn’t like he had to pay everything upfront
He could start paving the road first, so when he started building the house, things wouldn’t drag along. Since he wanted to do this, it had to be good. Chen Zhao planned on building the best house he could within his current financial abilities.
