2 Years Of Restarting

"Don't you want to get stronger?" Long Ying added. "Training at morning is really a good thing. You'll feel much better and can get stronger soon."

With Long Ying had said so much for her sake, how can Yu Yan still refused? She was also the one who asked for him to train her, so she had no other choice but to follow Long Ying as he walked out of the mansion to run. 

Feeling the chills creeping on her skin, Yu Yan really really really wanted to go back and sleep. As the cold wind slapped her cheek, Yu Yan felt that her body turned cold. She looked at Long Ying, who was preparing to have a jog too beside her.

"Is it always this cold in the morning?" Yu Yan was not really a morning person unless she really has to.

Long Ying arched his eyebrows. "Don't you always wake up early?"

"Not this early…"

"It'll get warmer after we run a bit. Come on."

"Okay~."

Following behind Long Ying, Yu Yan began to jog. She still felt her muscles hurt so much from the torture training San Xia gave to her yesterday. However, she had to push herself forward if she wanted to make any progress.

"Can you keep up?" Long Ying was paying close attention to Yu Yan behind him. He was making sure that he would be slow enough to let her catch up. While Yu Yan's physique was not that bad, it was far from him.

He had to make sure that he didn't overdo it when training with Yu Yan or the result would be the opposite of what they intended.

"Uh… I guess… I'm fine…"

Yu Yan had already started panting. She thought of Feng Mian and how she always made fun of her best friend when the latter was trying to run. It was because Feng Mian easily went out of breath.

But now that she was following behind Long Ying, she just realized that if she had to run longer track of course, she really couldn't do it.

"If you want to, we'll take a short rest."

"No… need."

Long Ying looked at his wife and kept the pace not too fast nor too slow. He was making sure that he was jogging at the pace Yu Yan would be able to follow him. 

One way or another, she managed to finish by tailing behind Long Ying. Though, she could no longer remain standing afterwards.

"Don't sit down immediately after you have finished exercising. It'll do you more harm rather than good." Long Ying stopped Yu Yan from sitting down and helped her to stand. "Walk around a bit."

"I don't have any strength left…"

"Come on, I'll help you."

At the back, An Luo and San Xia remained expressionless when they were watching their Boss getting close with his wife. Even though they wanted to say that Boss was not himself around Yu Yan, they didn't dare to speak it out loud.

They feared that their Boss would punish them severely. 

"It's no wonder An Lin fails almost immediately and got send to that island," An Luo commented. His face was still straight as he tried to stop his lips from twitching. Seeing Long Ying was now wiping his wife's sweat tenderly was truly contrasting from the usual cold blooded and cruel Boss he knew.

Did someone trade their Boss with someone else?

"What? Your little brother still can't stand watching dog food?" San Xia asked with a faint laugh.

"He always hate it when he sees us together," An Luo added.

San Xia let out a playful laugh. "In that case, I'll need to show off more when he returns back later. I can't possibly lose to Boss."

An Lin, who was busy training in Island A, sneezed loudly. He looked at the sky with speechless expression as he could feel chills on his back. Who was thinking of him? Please don't let it be Boss again or he would die in this island if he stayed even longer.

After the morning exercise, the couple had their breakfast and Yu Yan really couldn't walk around anymore. She felt as if all of her strength had been drained off her body just from the morning training.

It seemed that wanting to make herself stronger would still take a long time. She needed to take one step at a time and got herself used with this new situation of hers. 

Bundling herself with a blanket, Yu Yan sat on the sofa, ready to watch television.

"Is it that cold?" Long Ying asked while entering the room while holding two glasses of water. He didn't think that it was cold but he thought that Yu Yan might be more sensitive than him since he was not totally sure about her constitution.

"Not really, but I still feel that it's cold."

"Drink this, your body will warm up afterwards."

"Okay."

The water Long Ying gave was warm because one shouldn't drink cold water after exercise. No matter how good it was to drink cold water, it'll do more harm to the body.

"What do you want to watch?" Long Ying took the remote control and looked at the television as he clicked the button. 

"Anything is fine. Don't you have work now?" Yu Yan tilted her head. She put the glass away after she had finished drinking.

"It's finished for now."

"Nice."

Just as Yu Yan was about to continue talking, the television sounded out the name she didn't want to hear the most.

Sora Corner: Sitting down right after exercise

No, you shouldn't sit down immediately right after you have an exercise because it'll affect your body. Warming up and cooling down is important. It not only down-regulates the body but allows you to create new end ranges for the tissue when they are warm.. Cooling down is just as important as warming up and laying down after your workout is not a way to cool down.
