Chapter 2075: Weight Loss Tea
"Hey, Director Qiao, life is hard enough, itās embarrassing to make me say this out loud." Song Xiaodong said with a laugh.
"Hehehe" Director Qiao took off her down jacket, and as she laughed, her shoulders and chest bounced up and down.
"I want you to say it out loud yourself." Qiao Yutong said to Song Xiaodong while shaking her head and her chest with pride.
"I wonāt say it." Song Xiaodong turned his head away.
"Hmph."
Song Xiaodong was peeling crab shells for Qiao Yutong.
"Arenāt you eating?" Qiao Yutong asked Song Xiaodong, looking at his empty plate and the large heap of crab shells next to it, while her own plate was piled with shelled crabs.
"Two people peeling isnāt enough for you to eat alone." Song Xiaodong laughed.
"Hehehe..." Qiao Yutong laughed awkwardly, grabbed a crab from her plate and placed it onto Song Xiaodongās plate.
"Here, itās your reward from this young lady." Qiao Yutong threw a flirty glance at Song Xiaodong and said.
"Thank you for your gracious favor!"
"Why are you peeling so many for me? How can I finish eating?" Qiao Yutong complained while eating.
"Donāt play games with me, donāt I know your appetite?" Song Xiaodong rolled his eyes at Qiao Yutong.
"Ah, I canāt eat anymore, Iām growing fat on my belly." Qiao Yutong said as she looked down at her flat belly.
Song Xiaodong had heard this so often his ears turned callous, as Miao Qingqing and Miao Xuanxuan were always complaining about their small bellies.
"Director Qiao, itās fine, eat to your heartās content, at worst Iāll make you some weight loss medicine." Song Xiaodong said.
"Weight loss medicine is all a scam, I had a colleague who kept drinking weight loss tea and got sick from it." Qiao Yutong said.
"Of course, the ones you buy on the market donāt work, but the ones I make definitely do." Song Xiaodong started bragging again.
"Blow your own horn." Qiao Yutong rolled her eyes at Song Xiaodong.
"Didnāt you eat those ash balls I made for you, and didnāt you say they worked?" Song Xiaodong said.
"Thatās true, can you really make them?" Qiao Yutong asked.
"Actually, let me put it this way, many peopleās approach to losing weight is wrong." Song Xiaodong said.
"Losing weight is just about eating less, what other approach is there?" Qiao Yutong asked.
"Let me give you an example, when I was a kid, I had two childhood friends, they were cousins, the older one was really fat, and the younger one was very skinny, guess why?" Song Xiaodong asked.
"What else could it be, one ate a lot, one didnāt, or one family was poor and the other was rich." Qiao Yutong said.
"Wrong, the fat brotherās mother didnāt have good milk and he grew up on formula, while the skinny brotherās mother had very little milk." Song Xiaodong said.
"What does fat or skinny have to do with the motherās milk?" Qiao Yutong asked in disbelief.
"Let me ask you, how was your motherās milk when you were a kid?" Song Xiaodong asked.
"It was okay, just normal." Qiao Yutong answered.
"Thatās why you have an average build." Song Xiaodong said.
"Are you saying fat or skinny is related to milk?" Qiao Yutong asked.
"Itās only partly related, but think about it, why would someone grow up fat if they had insufficient milk as a child?" Song Xiaodong asked.
Qiao Yutong held a crab in her mouth and shook her head.
"Then let me ask you, what is the role of fat?" Song Xiaodong asked.
"To protect the organs and store energy." Qiao Yutong answered.
"Exactly, so when someone gains weight, itās because the body feels itās necessary to store energy just in case." Song Xiaodong continued.
"Oh... so itās like, when the body isnāt healthy and feels danger, itāll store energy." Qiao Yutong realized.
"Right, so the only reason a person gets fat is because their body isnāt healthy." Song Xiaodong said.
"Makes sense..."
"People with enough milk when they were young donāt feel danger in their bodies, so they donāt have the pressure to store energy, thus arenāt usually fat. But those with insufficient milk, due to lack of nutrition, their body feels storing energy is necessary, so they grow up to be fat and usually have poor health, low immunity, and catch colds easily." Song Xiaodong explained further.
"Hmm..." Qiao Yutong nodded again.
"So, the root of losing weight isnāt burning fat or cutting calorie intake." Song Xiaodong said.
"Itās to restore the bodyās health!" Qiao Yutong concluded.
"Exactly, itās about treating the problem." Song Xiaodong said.
"Hmm, it seems like you really understand, you could totally sell weight loss tea, itād definitely be a hit!" Qiao Yutong said to Song Xiaodong.
"You know what, once things are settled with Deputy Commander Wang, I might actually consider starting a factory." Song Xiaodong said.
"Iāll invest in it when the time comes!" Qiao Yutong said.
"Director Qiao, mind your status!" Song Xiaodong reminded.
"Then, you have to give me some when the time comes." Qiao Yutong changed her tune and said.
"Iāll give you a truckload, you can drink it like tap water!" Song Xiaodong said.
"Donāt, I might get poisoned." Qiao Yutong said.
"Natural and non-toxic, pure natural ingredients, natural plant essence, smooth bowel movement, detoxification and beauty." Song Xiaodong spewed out ad slogans off the top of his head.
"Weāre eating here!" Qiao Yutong picked up her chopsticks, ready to hit Song Xiaodong.
After eating most of it, the table was piled with a mountain of crab shells. At first, Song Xiaodong was peeling for Qiao Yutong, and after she was full, she peeled for him, until neither of them could eat anymore, leaving some leftovers.
"Take it home for your wives?" Qiao Yutong looked at the leftovers on the table.
"Better not, if they ask and find out it was leftovers from dining with you, they wonāt let me off easily." Song Xiaodong said.
