The growth system comes at the age of 30

Chapter 8 My smile is not impure
Chen Jingle cooks for himself a lot and has studied various dishes from the eight major cuisines, but his cooking is limited to the level of home cooking.

After all, cooking requires talent.

Hard work is insignificant in the face of true talent; at most it can only raise the lower limit of your level.

However, this sweet and sour pork dish was obviously far beyond the level of home cooking. It was no exaggeration to say that it was even more delicious than the one he had eaten in Qiongzhou before, which was made by a chef who claimed to be authentic from Northeast China!

You have to know that he is a professional chef from a big hotel and he sells a plate for 58 yuan!

“Even after the practical class, as long as I can keep 90% of the quality of this dish, it will be enough.”

Chen Jingle grinned.

Just relying on this sweet and sour pork, if I set up a stall in front of the school one day and sell this dish, I won’t have to worry about starving to death.

"Well, other restaurants sell it for 58 yuan a plate. If I set up a stall, how much should I sell it for? If I sell it too high, I'm afraid no one will buy it. 8 yuan? Isn't 8 yuan too much of a loss? Now tenderloin is at least 15 yuan a pound..."

As I thought about it, my thoughts wandered away. I quickly shook my head to get rid of all the distracting thoughts.

"Forget it, let's eat first and talk about it after we're done!"

With the leftover spicy pork soup from lunch, and a piece of sweet and sour pork, eh~
Beautiful!
Delicious food is the cheapest source of happiness, and this is no joke.

The sense of happiness that this plate of sweet and sour pork brought to Chen Jingle was enough to sustain his mental consumption for the next three days.

If you can come home from a busy day and eat a plate of delicious sweet and sour pork, it would be worth it!

……

Cook and eat, plus wash dishes and pots.

After finishing everything, the system prompts that it is late.

【Baby is awesome! Successfully complete the learning task and get the reward of shrinking facial skin pores.】

"Huh?! Shrinking pores?"

Chen Jingle was stunned, and rushed back into the house. He found a mirror, looked left and right, and then touched it with his hand.

"Hiss~ The skin seems...to be smoother than before."

My pores before were not so big that you could plant rice seedlings in them, but they were pretty rough.

After all, she often stays up late, has an irregular work and rest schedule, has oily skin, and likes to eat all kinds of snacks. She just indulges in her appetite and doesn't care about her appearance.

It may not be a big deal in the short term, but over the years, the damage to the skin is enormous.

It is well known that it is easy to destroy but difficult to repair. If you use medical beauty methods, such as hyaluronic acid injections, photorejuvenation, etc., to achieve the same repair effect, it will cost at least several thousand or even tens of thousands of yuan, or multiple courses of treatment.

"This way I can save myself some money. If you round it up, it's a profit! What a profit!"

Chen Jingle felt very happy.

Once this system reward is given, the whole person changes immediately.

Although he cannot be called a pretty boy, he can be considered handsome due to the delicateness of his facial skin, his wheat-colored skin with a healthy glow, and his regular facial features.

One step closer to becoming a handsome guy!
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, this beauty effect is too strong, isn't it?"

Chen Jingle smiled happily.

Having good looks has huge advantages. After all, this is a society that values appearance. If you are good-looking, the other party will take the initiative in blind dates.

If one is handsome enough, he can completely ignore other conditions and make a living just by his looks.

The success of some sports idols has already given the answer.

Next, when you look at those internet celebrities, does anyone care whether they graduated from a 985 or 211 university, or whether they have a master's or doctorate degree? Does anyone care whether they have work experience or whether they are fresh graduates?
All you need is a good-looking face!
So, looking good is really important!
If there was really no other way, who would be born willing to be a goblin or a troll, to be ridiculed and humiliated by the yellow-haired brave man and the white-robed saint?

Chen Jingle, who once again received positive feedback from the system, is full of confidence about the future.

"My smile is not impure either!"

……

I thought it would take a week to see a noticeable transformation in myself.

Unexpectedly, the situation was completely different on the first day.

The biggest change was the reduction of facial pores, not to mention the successful mastery of the master-level method of making sweet and sour pork. This made Chen Jingle look forward to the next course even more.

After a 10-minute break, I heard the system prompt again.

【The next step is free time. Smart babies should learn to take the initiative in learning and arrange reasonable free learning content for themselves after completing the previous courses. Baby, you can do it, right?】

"free time?"

Chen Jingle was stunned: "Can I do anything?"

【As long as you think it is helpful for your growth, baby. 】

Chen Jingle hesitated for a moment and said, "I have taken the theoretical knowledge class, the practical skills class, and I have not taken the sports class yet."

"Or maybe exercise."

He wanted to see if he could trigger other types of rewards after completing the class tasks.

[Yes, you can.]

“Can I choose my own sports?”

[No problem.]

"..."

Chen Jingle's final choice was push-ups + squats. After all, he had just finished eating and hadn't digested the meal yet, so it was not suitable for him to do strenuous running or jumping exercises. Running and skipping rope were out of the question, and he was not good at ball games.

Push-ups + squats are enough.

These two movements can effectively exercise most muscle groups in the body.

however……

Chen Jingle still overestimated his physical fitness.

All 50 push-ups have to be done in five groups, and the last group is done in the "butterfly flapping wings" style.

"No, no, I'm so tired."

After doing 50 push-ups, I was so tired that I lay on the ground gasping for breath.

Damn, I haven’t exercised for a long time. I feel so weak.

Sure enough, once a person falls into decadence, it becomes very difficult to pick up the habit of exercise again and keep doing it.

[Baby is already very good. Nothing can be achieved overnight. As long as you keep exercising every day, I believe that it won’t be long before you have a healthy and strong body. ]

Take a look!

Although his performance was not very good, he still received praise and encouragement from the system, which made Chen Jingle feel not so tired.

Moving!

Encouraged, Chen Jingle managed to get up: "Let's do some squats first. My arms are temporarily out of strength."

Squats are much easier than push-ups, and you can do 50 in one go.

But after finishing it, my thighs were sore and numb and I could only continue to rest.

With the expectation of system rewards, Chen Jingle took the initiative to persist without being urged by the system.

In an hour, I did more than 200 push-ups and 250 squats in total.

In the end, Chen Jingle lay on the ground, motionless, tired like a dead dog.

"Oh my god, this is probably not the total amount of exercise I've done in the past three months!"

Not an exaggeration at all!
If it weren't for the positive feedback given by the system, he might not have been able to persevere.

Now it depends on what rewards the system can give.

[Baby is awesome! Successfully completed the exercise task, rewarded with height +0.1 cm, strength +0.2 kg. Current height is 173.1 cm, strength is 32.9 kg.]

Chen Jingle: “…”
