The last time Mei Fang and his friends saw Guo Yun was nearly four months ago, when they all visited the Five Patriarchs Temple together.
Four months is not a long time, but it is not a short time either. However, according to common sense, it is definitely not supported that Guo Yun lost such a large amount of weight.
Of course, she is still a little fat now, and her face is still relatively round, but after all, she is wearing autumn clothes, so she is far from being called a fat girl.
She used to have a lot of ugly acne marks on her face, but now they have all disappeared, and her slightly reddish skin has become somewhat radiant.
She originally had big eyes, but her face was too big before so her facial features did not seem prominent; but after losing a lot of weight, her facial features are quite delicate, and cute is no longer an excuse to describe her appearance.
Guo Yun was of course expecting Mei Fang and Xia Yuan to be astonished. She hesitantly explained:
"Well... because of what the doctor said during the physical examination, I have been trying to lose weight and control my diet recently, plus doing various exercises, so I should have lost a little weight..."
"You call this a little bit? How about we take out your junior high school graduation photos and compare them... You're like a completely different person!"
“Totally unrecognizable.”
Mei Fang also waved her hand and nodded, "Maybe this is the legendary change of a girl as she grows up. Your perseverance is really amazing. It must have been very hard to work out during this period of time."
"It's okay... During the fat loss period, controlling diet is the key, and exercise is just a supplement."
Guo Yun could not resist Mei Fang's praise. She would mutter a few words and then lower her head in embarrassment.
The alert Xia Yuan kept staring at Guo Yun.
A bad thought arose in her mind.
"Well, I think it's okay. I think Guo Yun is exactly the same as what you described before!"
Xiang Bingbing put her hands on her hips and yelled, "Rather than doing this, let's go to the restaurant and have a good meal! I can't wait."
"Let's go upstairs first and sit down and talk slowly."
Mei Fang looked at Youxi who was supported by Xia Yuan and Liu Xiaoyu, and said, "Find a place for Youxi to sit down."
The cheerful Xiang Bingbing was busy chatting with Guo Yun on the way to the mall elevator. She not only introduced herself, but also helped Liu Xiaoyu get to know Guo Yun.
Both of them are from Baimei County, so there is no particular pressure in communicating with each other. Liu Xiaoyu is curious about how Guo Yun and Mei Fang met each other, and later she found out that she was Mei Fang's deskmate.
Xia Yuan helped Lin Youxi to the bathroom on the same floor. After they came out a while later, Lin Youxi no longer needed Xia Yuan's support.
"Youxi, how are you... Are you feeling better?"
"Yeah... much better now."
Lin Youxi seemed to have washed her face and was in better shape. A few people came to the buffet restaurant early, and since it was not yet 11 o'clock, they had to wait for a table, so everyone was sitting outside.
Xiang Bingbing shamelessly leaned on the French window of the restaurant to watch the girls inside arranging the ingredients, while the other girls were chatting together in a friendly manner. Xia Yuan held Mei Fang's arm and excluded him from the circle of girls chatting.
"Class monitor, long time no see... You and Xia Yuan are both much prettier."
Guo Yun hadn't met her junior high school classmates for a long time and seemed a little shy, but compared to the time when she didn't dare to speak, she is now much better. Obviously, her improved image has made her more confident.
Lin Youxi also smiled at Guo Yun, "You have changed a lot. If you go back for the New Year this year, your other friends will be scared."
"I probably won't go back this year... My family has settled down in Jiangcheng and moved here."
"Well, that's how it is..."
"S-So... How did you lose weight? Can you teach me? I feel like I have a lot of belly fat lately."
"I just... ate according to the diet and kept my daily calorie intake within the limit of my calorie expenditure, and I gradually lost weight. My family members supported me and helped me prepare diet meals."
"A diet means eating salad and grass? How can you feel full then?"
Liu Xiaoyu shook his head. "It's almost impossible for us boarding students to eat food that meets these conditions."
"Xiaoyu, why do you want to lose weight too? Aren't you in good shape?"
"Ah... No, it's not about losing weight, it's about healthy eating. The school meals are indeed a bit..."
Guo Yun introduced her weight loss secrets to everyone in detail, and Mei Fang listened with his head tilted up. After a while, he felt a little bored, so he got up and ran to Bingbing.
"Are you really that hungry?"
Xiang Bingbing nodded frantically at Mei Fang.
"I've been in Jiangcheng for so long, and today is my first time to visit the city center. I'm so excited. Mei Fang, you brought your phone, right? Your phone has a high pixel count, so take a few more photos for me. I'll send them to my family later, and they'll know that I'm living well in Jiangcheng."
"Why are you saying it so sadly... I see you are cheerful every day, aren't you very happy?"
As Xiang Bingbing was talking, he suddenly became "sad".
"Actually, that's just the surface of me. You have no idea how fragile I am inside."
Mei Fang suddenly felt as if he had entered the heavy inner world of a girl.
It turns out that Xiang Bingbing also has two personalities, one half of her heart is extremely bright, and the other half is full of sadness—
Oh my god!
Mei Fang stared at Xiang Bingbing with disdain, "If you had something bothering you, you would have told someone right away. How could you still keep it in your heart?"
"Hey... Mei Fang, are you really not going to show any sympathy to any girl other than Yuanyuan Youxi? I look so cheerful on the surface, but I've actually been living in agony. Since you've said that to me, I can only tell you about this agony directly!"
Xiang Bingbing covered her stomach, her eyes full of grief and indignation, "I actually don't have enough to eat every day, and I have to pretend to smile and leave the cafeteria with you guys, but if I eat more, my meal card won't support me to continue eating. I can only return to the dormitory every night and eat the chestnuts from our Shenlongjia to fill my stomach in the dead of night!"
I knew it was like this...
Mei Fang stood on tiptoe and gently patted Xiang Bingbing's shoulder:
"Then you have a chance to show off your skills today. Eat as much as you want at the buffet. If you don't bankrupt this restaurant, I will look down on you."
"I won't go bankrupt from eating too much, but I can guarantee that as long as I, Xiang Bingbing, am here, I will make sure to eat back everything you haven't finished!"
Xiang Bingbing patted her chest and made a promise to Mei Fang that she would be the king of foodies.
Soon the time was up. After checking the rice ball coupons that Mei Fang had bought online, the store owner let Mei Fang and his group in. Xiang Bingbing ran ahead to look at the ingredients.
This buffet restaurant mainly serves barbecue, but there are also many delicious foods that can be taken directly. The group found seats and sat down at the shared table. Xia Yuan asked Lin Youxi to sit in the middle and motioned Mei Fang to sit on the other side.
"Youxi, sit over there... If you want to eat something, Ah Fang and I will get it for you."
"It's okay, I'll go too, I'm not dizzy anymore."
Lin Youxi glanced at Guo Yun who was talking gently to Liu Xiaoyu, and then patted Xia Yuan on the shoulder, "Let's go get some food."
"Let's go and take a look together." Liu Xiaoyu and Guo Yun also stood up.
"Then I'll keep this seat."
Mei Fang guessed that Xiang Bingbing would definitely bring a lot of food, and if he couldn't finish it, he would be fined. Let's see Xiang Bingbing's true strength first.
