Chapter 276: Chapter 271: Wanting Boss Chen to Stand Up and Pedal

Which one is the hardest?

Xiao Xin’s face twisted with disgust, wondering if a person could actually say something like that?

He thought that given the boss’s good skills, the person should be decent too, but didn’t expect that he’d disregard everything just to show off.

If it was just to show off, that would have been fine, but the key point is that he seemed to believe it himself. Does he really think it’s easy to eat while working out?

If it were really that easy, why can I only do three pull-ups?

The others around shared pretty much the same thought, feeling that this boss was showing off too much, acting like he’s the only one capable when he said, “Which one is the hardest?”

Cao Tianrui indeed felt surprised, but since Boss Xiao Chen wanted to challenge, there was no reason not to accept!

“This is the hardest; so far, no one has chosen to challenge this task.”

Cao Tianrui pointed to a bike, to be precise, a spin bike!

Chen Mo walked over, touched the bike, and asked, “Why is riding a bike considered the hardest?”

This comment made a few fitness enthusiasts nearby laugh, but Chen Mo didn’t mind.

He had never worked out before; though his company had a small gym, he felt that lying down and sleeping was more comfortable in his free time. Who wants to exercise?

Xiao Xin couldn’t stand it anymore, so he squeezed through the crowd to explain on behalf of Cao Tianrui, “Boss Chen, this spin bike can adjust the resistance, and Boss Cao’s challenge starts at level 6, with one oyster rewarded for every kilometer! It’s really tough!”

People who don’t exercise might not understand this concept.

In other words, setting this bike to level 6 resistance is like climbing a very steep hill on a regular bike; even an untrained adult would find it difficult to keep pedaling continuously, even if they stood up and struggled.

“Alright.” Chen Mo attempted to ride the bike and then said to Ma Juntao, holding a plate of food, “Set it to the highest level, and let me see how hard this really is.”

Xiao Xin scrunched up his face again, speechless, feeling like Boss Chen was addicted to showing off.

But it didn’t matter; even on level 8, Xiao Xin could only manage five or six minutes, and at a very slow speed.

For someone like Boss Chen, who doesn’t usually exercise, it would be tough for his legs to even complete one pedal rotation, right?

Ma Juntao also disdainfully helped adjust the resistance to level 8, thinking that if he didn’t need to line up for some barbecue later and please Boss Chen, he’d really want to mock him.

Who does things like this?

Even Ma Juntao, when set to level 8, could only ride for about five or six minutes at a very slow speed.

Chen Mo mounted the bike, stood up, and stepped on one of the pedals.

“Wow! This resistance is really something.”

Despite Chen Mo’s 150-pound weight, the pedal didn’t budge at all.

The fitness coach and onlookers wore amused expressions, thinking that his showing off was now backfiring.

But then they saw Chen Mo sit back on the seat, apply steady force with one leg, and the bike moved!

As he pressed down on one side, the other side rose, and then he switched legs to apply force.

The bike was moving, but very slowly, like an ant crawling.

What no one knew was that Chen Mo was actually tasting and feeling the experience.

If this hardened toxin really worked well, in critical moments, it could be a lifesaver to use it.

At first, he didn’t feel any pressure at all.

Chen Mo kept pushing, trying to speed up!

After who knows how many pedal rotations, the speed gradually increased, and according to Cao Tianrui’s explanation, at level 8, every 300 meters would reward an oyster!

In the blink of an eye, he reached 300 meters.

The little cook skillfully fed an oyster into Chen Mo’s mouth.

Fresh, savory, slightly spicy, with a subtly sweet aftertaste from the oyster meat. Now Chen Mo’s taste and smell were more sensitive than before, enhancing his appreciation for food much more than ordinary people.

“The quality of Guandu Oysters is indeed impressive. Just grilling it simply with garlic seasoning makes it so delicious. Too bad I’m only having my first one today, what a pity.”

The speed at Chen Mo’s feet involuntarily increased even more. He was a bit surprised, as the hardened toxin’s effect was indeed strong. Something others found explosively challenging, he was pedaling with increased speed effortlessly.

The little cook saw the mileage tick and prepared another oyster.

Chen Mo wolfed down the oyster and saw the little cook was ready to pass him another.

“No need to trouble yourself. Hey you…” Chen Mo looked at Ma Juntao holding a plate, “Why don’t you just give me the plate.”

Ma Juntao hesitated for a moment, unsure of what he meant, and instinctively handed over the plate to Chen Mo, which held forty or fifty oysters.

Then, the crowd watched a scene unfold.

Chen Mo continued to accelerate his legs, while the numbers on the spin bike’s mileage counter soared at an eye-popping rate!

Almost as soon as Chen Mo finished swallowing an oyster and drained the juice from its shell, another 300 meters went by.

Only then did Ma Juntao realize why Chen Mo wanted his plate. Having the little cook feed him was too slow, not keeping pace at all!

Xiao Xin was dumbfounded in the crowd, “Wow, is this guy cheating?”

“Incredible, Boss Xiao Chen’s leg power is intense!”

“This workout requires not only strong legs but also strength in the waist, abdomen, and hips. I can’t even imagine what a perfect physique lies beneath that suit!”
