He is better than my lover!

"Come let's start with warming up your body then."

"What.. what do you mean?" She took a step back and held the front part of her shirt with her hands in a protective manner as she stared at the man.

She knew it! There was no deal when the man did not expect anything from a woman! Everything was a lie to bring her here late at night. A scowl formed on her lips and she was about to shout at him when he rolled his eyes.

"I mean what I said! If you exercise directly your body will not be able to take it. So you better warm up first. Start with running in the room ``Once done speaking, he walked towards the other corner of the room and took the bottle of water from there.

Sitting there leisurely, he opened the bottle of water and started drinking it. His long fingers were holding the bottle elegantly and his adam apple bobbed up and down as the water moved down his throat.

Shao Min gulped as her throat ran dry. She had never thought that a person could look this sexy just with the simple act of drinking water. She looked away as she was afraid that she might suffer nosebleeds if she continued to look at him.

But what surprised her most was.. He did not even turn once to look at her. She stood there like a fool, embarrassed and lost. When his cold voice rang in her ears,

"You better start running. I do not have a whole night to spare on you!" she came back to her senses and nodded her head with embarrassment.

In the next second she started to run on the treadmill with the highest speed she could muster in her fanatic state while her heart was doing somersaults in her ribcage.

All her clumsy thoughts started to fade when she felt conscious of his gaze on her. But surprisingly she was no more afraid that he would take her benefit. As if she was sure that it would not happen at all.

"Are you ready?" his cold white sounded too close to her body and nearly jumped when she found him standing next to her.

"Aahhh" a scream escaped her lips when she realized that she was about to fall but before her butt could touch the ground a pair of cold hands held her in her place.

"You are too clumsy!" he mumbled lazily as he continued to hold her waist by one hand while his other hand shut the machine.

When she was standing properly again, he let go of her waist and then looked straight into her eyes.

"You have backed out once, but from now you will not back out until i am done with you!" cold sweat started to form on her body when his laser like eyes started to discern on her face and it took all her strength to not fall and accept his offer.

She nodded as she tried to look away and he turned and moved away. She followed him silently even when he did not ask her to do so.

"Start with a plank, then do 50 lunges, after that side plank and then 100 squats and after that pushups.." she looked at him with utter horror when he started to inform her about the exercises she needed to perform in the next hour.

'Would I even be alive to leave this gym?' was the only question that roamed in her mind but when her scared eyes met his cold one, she nodded instantly and started her plank.

His lips curled upwards as he walked closer to her and planked too.

"I will give you company in all the exercises to boost your morale." 'and to pass a bit of my energy to you!' though he replied nonchalantly but her eyes felt the warmth.

The man whom she loved was having dinner with the girls who had always insulted her just because his mother said so. And here a man she had doubted and accused was training her for free when it was almost night and even joining her in performing the exercises to boost her morale!

She did not know why she compared both of them but her heart stung when she remembered the man she loved.

"You better pay more attention to the exercise or your body will start aching due to pressing on the wrong points!" a scowl formed on his face as he warned her once again.

He did not care if she found him better than her lover. All he wanted was for her to lose two pounds so that he could complete the mission of the day and relax in his bed.

She nodded her head and this time her enthusiasm was much more.

"Good, now let us start pushups…"

'Strange! Mostly i got tired and my whole body started to burn after doing exercises for half an hour but today i felt like i was rejuvenated. The more I do exercises, I feel like I have gained more energy through it. I am not feeling tired at all!' she could not help but wonder what was happening with her body.

But at the same time she was enjoying it. As if her body had turned lighter and the blood in her body was flowing with more pressure, she could feel herself getting energized.

She exercised with more vigor while her whole body was covered in sweat.

'2 hours later'

"That is it. Your exercise routine for today ends here. Now take a minute break and then check your weight and tell me if you have lost 2 pounds today?"

He asked as he picked up the towel. She pushed her upper body and sat on the floor instead of laying down further.

A bright smile formed on her lips as anticipation started to fill her whole body. The one minute he had asked her to wait was no less than a century and she continued to stare at the second's hand on the watch.

She ran like a tornado when the watch completed her one round and stood on the weighing machine.

"What was your initial weight?" he asked, though he knew it was 140 pounds.

"It was 140 pounds." she closed her eyes and prayed to god for giving her success this time before peeking on the digital scale with her one eye.

But her both eyes opened in shock as she looked at the weighing scale once again with her jaws touching the floor.

"DING" "DING" "DING" "DING"

"Mission Completed: The lady had lost 5 pounds of weight.

Offered points: 50 points since she had lost more than 2 pounds.``
