Start the liver experience with push-ups

Seeing that Fang Cheng, who had been silent all the way, was actually attracted by his words, the muscular man couldn't help but reveal a smile.

He didn't immediately reveal the so-called "secret" but instead played coy.

Then, he raised a finger to his lips, made a soft 'shh' sound, walked to the door, and peered left and right outside.

Next, he closed the door tightly, making sure to lock it.

Then, he turned around and closed the window and drew the curtains as well.

Watching his thieving-like actions, Fang Cheng's curiosity couldn't help but grow.

This muscular roommate was called Pan Wendi.

According to his own boasting, he was a gym coach and owner earning millions a year.

However, everyone here has an identity they created.

Fang Cheng's identity for participating in the meditation retreat was "Ma Donghao," a recent law school graduate interning as a lawyer.

After taking precautionary measures, Pan Wendi looked solemnly at Fang Cheng and asked:

"Little Ma, did you notice that the dinner at the restaurant was all vegetarian?"

Fang Cheng nodded.

Pan Wendi then asked:

"Do you know why?"

Fang Cheng pondered for a moment and explained:

"It should be for meditation practice, right? Eating vegetarian food can make people's emotions more gentle and less prone to anxiety and impatience, just like those monks who observe precepts."

"You're right. I asked the older members, and they said the same thing."

"But, I was bored just now, so I wandered around this building. When I got close to the top floor, I found that the stairwell was locked with an iron gate, preventing me from going up."

"Just as I was about to turn around and leave, I smelled a meaty aroma wafting down from above. The smell made my mouth water. Alas, I didn't get enough greasy food tonight, and my cravings were triggered..."

Fang Cheng looked at Pan Wendi, slightly speechless.

What kind of big secret was this? He acted so cautiously, like a secret agent making contact.

Seeing Fang Cheng's expression, Pan Wendi then explained:

"This shows that they are not what they seem. Since there is one secret, there will naturally be a second secret."

Saying this, he waved his hand:

"Never mind, just be careful in this kind of remote island place."

Then, he took out a towel and toothbrush from his bag and walked towards the bathroom.

Fang Cheng couldn't help but glance at his back a few more times, feeling that this guy seemed to have something more to say and hadn't fully revealed it.

After a while, Pan Wendi came out of the bathroom, lay down on the opposite bed, and started chatting idly again.

"Little Ma, what do you do for work? Are you interested in learning fitness with me?"

"With your looks, if you also had a muscular physique, you could definitely become a gold medal coach, earning millions a year would not be a dream."

"Of course, if you could develop a strong physique like mine, I guarantee you'd be popular in the wealthy women's circles of all of Dongdu..."

*Click.*

The room lights suddenly went off, instantly plunging the room into darkness.

Seeing that Fang Cheng ignored him, Pan Wendi still kept muttering.

Until half an hour later, he finally quieted down.

Fang Cheng lay on his side, put earplugs in his ears, and then closed his eyes.

Perhaps because the air quality was good here, the environment was indeed pleasant.

Fang Cheng felt that his mental state was more stable and it was easier to fall asleep.

As he practiced the counting breaths method, his breathing gradually became long and deep, and he completely fell into a dream.

The night deepened.

The fog outside the window also became thicker and thicker, condensing on the glass in a hazy white.

In the early hours of the morning.

A gust of cold wind suddenly appeared from nowhere.

Fang Cheng suddenly opened his eyes, waking up again.

He felt the hairs on his body stand up slightly, as if he were freezing, so he tucked in the corners of the blanket and wrapped his body tightly.

At the same time, he felt slightly annoyed. Tonight's sleep could be said to be the best quality sleep he had had recently.

He even vaguely had a sweet dream, finding himself in a blue space.

It was as if the entire world had turned into a light blue hue, or as if he was swimming freely in the ocean.

Enjoying unparalleled tranquility and peace, he could quietly fall asleep forever.

"I didn't expect it to be the same as before..."

Fang Cheng sighed softly.

Thinking about it, perhaps it was because he was not used to sleeping in the same room with a stranger, and he was too sensitive.

So, he changed his sleeping position and prepared to continue using the counting breaths method to help him sleep.

Just then, he suddenly heard a strange sound.

*Pat*— *pat*—

The sound came from outside the door.

Compared to the subtle ambient noise, it was more impactful, pounding on his heart.

It sounded like someone was stepping in water-filled rubber shoes, passing by in the corridor at a very slow speed.

Fang Cheng's pupils shrank slightly.

The room door was not completely closed, leaving a gap at the bottom.

Although the lights in the corridor were off, faint light still shone through the gap under the door.

The latest novels are first published on 69shu.com!

As the sound rang out, Fang Cheng saw a shadow seeming to stand in front of the door.

At the same time, a strange smell of rotten fishiness instantly wafted into his nostrils.

Fang Cheng couldn't help but frown.

Who on earth was outside the door in the middle of the night?

He turned his head to look at Pan Wendi lying on the opposite bed.

This guy was sleeping soundly, his nose emitting a slight snore, completely unaware of the abnormality.

Fang Cheng slowly sat up, clenched his fists, and his whole body's muscles tensed, ready to strike.

Ready to give a head-on blow to any evildoer who tried to break into the door.

It seemed like a few minutes had passed, or maybe it was just a moment.

The shadow outside the door suddenly moved again, heading deeper into the corridor.

The speed of walking was still very slow, so slow that it seemed to be just a hallucination.

Fang Cheng did not get out of bed to chase out to investigate the situation.

"Perhaps it's some crazy person running out in the middle of the night..."

"I'm not familiar with this place, I'll endure it!"

It was just that the sound still came from the corridor, and it only dropped a step every ten seconds, making people wait with bated breath for the sound of his next step.

Fang Cheng sighed helplessly and simply used the Focus skill to completely block out the footsteps of the bastard outside the door.

About half an hour later, when he exited the state, the strange sound had disappeared.

Fang Cheng's head felt slightly swollen, but his heart relaxed a lot, and he slowly fell asleep again.

This time it seemed...finally undisturbed.

"Huff—" "Huff—"

A slightly rapid panting sound entered his ears, and Fang Cheng opened his eyes again.

He found a muscular man with his shirt off and a sturdy build lying on the floor, doing push-ups.

"Little Ma, you're awake. I just started exercising. Did I disturb you?"

Pan Wendi grinned, a little embarrassed.

Speaking of which, this guy was full of energy and had a cheerful personality, completely different from the other team members who had some psychological problems.

"Did you hear any strange sounds last night?"

Fang Cheng calmed himself down and then asked.

"No."

Pan Wendi was slightly surprised, stopped his exercise and said:

"The living conditions here are not very good, but the environment is really good. I slept much better than at home."

Hearing this, Fang Cheng didn't continue to sleep.

He got up, got out of bed, opened the curtains, and looked outside.

A hint of fish-belly white had already appeared on the horizon, with faint clouds floating among the mountains.

Like the distant waves, they were rapidly receding and dissipating.

Fang Cheng took a deep breath of fresh air, which invigorated his spirits.

Then he went to the bathroom to wash up and prepare to go out to find a secluded place to do some morning exercises.

But when he opened the door, his eyes instantly narrowed.

He saw a pair of wet footprints appearing in front of the door.
