Salted Fish: “For example, if you were driving, you would have been in a car accident!”

Car accident? Chen Yi agreed with this point. Because he had such an unpleasant experience just now! The moment he was shocked, he lost consciousness.

This current seemed to be within the safe voltage, but his brain was still stimulated and he was forced into a coma. The whole process didn’t even take more than three seconds!

It was easy to imagine… if he was driving and he was suddenly knocked out by the mandatory electric shock, what would happen?

He wouldn’t even have time to step on the brakes! And the car accident would happen in just a few seconds… However, Chen Yi felt that Salted Fish was a little too worried.

He was still living in a 20-to 30-square-meter apartment, so how could he have a car?

He insisted on traveling in an environmentally friendly way. If he was going somewhere further, he would have to take a bus, a subway, or rent a bicycle. Don’t ask. If he was asked, then it’s because he was poor!

However, Salted Fish also gave him a kind reminder. At least in the future, when he encountered this matter, Chen Yi would also pay attention to choosing the right time and place.

Thinking of this, Chen Yi thought of another question. “Oh right, how long does my coma or other authors’ side effects like sleep last?”

Salted Fish said, “Under normal circumstances, the longest side effect would not last more than five hours, and the shortest would only last for about ten minutes.”

It would take anywhere from ten minutes to five hours?

Was it random or was it related to one’s constitution?

Chen Yi nodded and said, “Oh, okay. I still have other things to do, so I’ll contact you when I’m free.”

Salted Fish said, “Alright, go ahead and get busy… If you have anything to say, just ‘poke’ me, and I’ll reply immediately!”

Chen Yi: “Okay.”

Although there were some ridiculous side effects when his body changed, he didn’t feel anything! However, the results were still the same.

Chen Yi couldn’t put down his hands and continued to stroke his abdominal muscles. He ran to the toilet and started to admire himself.

Fortunately, he didn’t choose to take the mirror away. Tsk tsk, was this him? He couldn’t believe it! He even felt that the perfect physique in the mirror was a little foreign.

Look at his beautiful abdominal muscles, the perfect mermaid line, and the beautiful arc behind him. It perfectly displayed the charm of a man.

His arms and legs were just right. Every muscle line was strong but didn’t stand out.

It was said that all works of art were made up of lines, so Chen Yi’s current figure could be considered a work of art!

His collarbone was prominent, and his neck was beautiful. From afar, there was not a single piece of flesh on his body that was redundant. The perfect composition was amazing.

Chen Yi felt like a shark in the deep sea or a hunter in the dark. The flexibility of his muscles and the explosive power was powerful. Perhaps in just an instant, he would be able to catch up with his prey!

Most importantly, not only did his figure change, but his facial features also changed.

Previously, the face of the “greasy uncle” was full of oil, and his double chin had been replaced with sharp jawlines. Now, his jawline, chin, and cheekbones were clearly defined, and his facial features had become strong and slightly deep.

His skin had also improved. There was no oil on his face, and even his pores were thick. His skin was dark, and there were no acne marks. His entire face was clean and refreshing.

His facial features had not been modified at all. However, because of the change in his figure, he must have lost some weight as well. Therefore, his facial features had also changed.

Although Chen Yi was not too handsome, overall, with his height of 1.85 meters, he was simply a youthful refreshing boy! Wouldn’t he charm thousands of young girls when he went out?

Chen Yi chuckled, “I’m not as handsome as a celebrity. I should be fine as a campus hunk or something, right? If I go out like this, I’m sure everyone will be staring at me. They will be drooling while looking at me!” Thinking about it, it was really satisfying!

“I’m too f*cking handsome! I have a perfect physique with a golden ratio!” He bragged while he changed poses to admire himself. After about half an hour, he reluctantly came out of the toilet.

According to the exchange of the golden finger, this time, the changes in Chen Yi’s body won’t just be the appearance of the abdominal muscles. There would also be changes in his physical fitness or enhancement of his strength.

Therefore, Chen Yi was in high spirits. He did 200 push-ups first, and then he did dozens of them with one hand. It was as easy as playing!

It was awesome! This feeling was unprecedented. His physical strength, patience, and mental state changed with it. He had never felt so relaxed before.

Sure enough, was this the change brought about by the difference in physical fitness? He was like a butterfly that had broken out of its cocoon. He was now a brand new person! He had been reborn and become a new person! Ah ptui, he was originally a human being.

Chen Yi was almost done being smug and decided to take a shower. Although the push-ups just now were not very tiring, he was still sweating all over.

In addition, he could take advantage of the shower to have some contact with his body. It would be great!

Just as he turned on the water heater, he suddenly remembered there was a knock on the door.

Strange, who could it be? Chen Yi couldn’t help but be a little stunned. He had lived here for almost two years, but he rarely went out to work. Hence, he did not know the people around him very well, he only greeted them.

Who would come to look for him in the middle of the night? Could it be… to collect payment for water and electricity? Or rent? It couldn’t be that bad, he remembered that he had paid for it.

With that thought, Chen Yi strode over to open the door. He saw a woman of about 28 years old standing outside the door. Although Chen Yi hadn’t seen much of her, he still recognized her. This was the landlord’s sister, Su Tian.

Su Tian was five or six years older than him. She had only been married for less than three years. Her husband was an overseas businessman who often went on business trips. She was also a doctor who had graduated from a university and was an assistant professor in a university.

Su Tian’s family background was not bad. Her husband had a 300-square-meter duplex and a small Western-styled house. She had two houses of her own. They don’t live here often. The main reason they stayed here was that it was more convenient to go to school.

Although Chen Yi and Su Tian had met before, looked familiar to each other, and did not live far from one another, they only had the sort of relationship where they greeted each other.

Furthermore, Chen Yi was quite introverted and did not have a good relationship with other people.

Therefore, he was a little surprised that Su Tian appeared at his door. After all, they were not close and did not meet often.

Moreover, it was already past ten o’clock. For her to come knocking on the door at this time of night, it was either an urgent matter or…

Chen Yi’s thoughts moved. He squinted his eyes and smiled, “Sister Su, it’s you! What’s wrong? Is there an urgent matter?”

Su Tian did not recognize him immediately. She stared at him for a long time, “You are…?”

“I’m Chen Yi!”

The woman who suddenly remembered something immediately came back to her senses.

She quietly glanced at the man’s abdominal muscles and smiled, “So you’re Chen Yi! I haven’t seen you for a while, so I didn’t recognize you. Your figure is not bad, I didn’t notice it before!”

“It’s okay. I exercise occasionally. Since I have nothing to do, I just exercise for fun,” Chen Yi touched his head, feeling a little shy.

“Aiya, you get this kind of physique from just exercising for fun?” Su Tian clicked her tongue, “Chen Yi, you’re too modest. I reckon that half of the professional sports students in our school are not as good as you!”

Chen Yi smiled and was very modest, “It’s not that exaggerated. I’m just… average. I can’t be compared to them.”

He paused for a moment and then asked, “By the way, sister Su, is there something you need from me?”

Su Tian patted her head and said, “My goodness, I nearly forgot about it. It’s not anything super important. It’s just that the light in my house is not working. You also know that my husband often goes on business trips. He doesn’t come to stay here either. I don’t stay here often. Today, my sister-in-law and my brother aren’t here either… so I just thought of you. If it’s not too much trouble, can you help me take a look?”

Oh…. the light was not working!
