The woman hesitated at the beginning, but Feng Jun successfully persuaded her to join their membership and pay thirty thousand yuan for it.
Feng Jun could take a commission of two thousand and four hundred yuan on that deal.
The woman also asked him about the service of a personal trainer, but Feng Jun didn’t have a coach certificate. The woman was quite disappointed, and she told him to introduce a personal trainer to her later.
Fitness coaches who heard their conversation were jealous of Feng Jun because a personal trainer could have more than 10% in commission.
Feng Jun, however, could only have a commission of around 3%. This woman paid thirty thousand yuan at a time, and Feng Jun could only have a commission of 8%.
If Liu Shuming hadn’t been punished because of Feng Jun before, other fitness coaches would definitely come up and teach Feng Jun how to do his job.
Nevertheless, no one dared to do that again, and they simply watched Feng Jun.
Feng Jun replied to the woman, “There are many body-building trainers, but not many of them have real skills and I’ll choose the best one for you later.”
He said that on purpose to show Hongjie Fitness Club was a professional club. All the lackeys said the same thing in the old days, so it shouldn’t be a problem.
Other coaches, instead, were displeased, because it sounded as if some of them weren’t good at body-building.
Even though they felt upset, they couldn’t complain about it, which was one of the rules in their club.
Zhao Hongqi approached Feng Jun later and joked, “Hey, Feng Jun, you’re more and more charming now.”
Feng Jun rolled his eyes at him and didn’t bother to argue with him. After a while, he quietly went to the staff locker room and observed himself in the mirror.
To be honest, he indeed felt that his appearance had changed, but he didn’t know why.
Probably he had a different air now.
Anyway, he was very satisfied with his body right now, because he was taller, thinner, and more good-looking than ever.
If he kept on exercising, he would become perfect.
The woman exercised intermittently for two hours then left after receiving a call. Several staff members who had a good relationship with Feng Jun came over and demanded a free meal of him.
Feng Jun was a very economical man in his daily life, but he was also generous, so he agreed to buy them a free meal.
However, he was unwilling to see Zhao Hongqi join them.
Therefore, he smiled and said, “Of course I should share my good luck with you, but I honestly need to buy a new phone right now. My old phone is always acting up.”
“Come on! You can have a commission of thousands of yuan today, and a meal won’t cost much.” Zhao Hongqi complained first, which was the reason why he was hateful.
Feng Jun gave him a glance. “I think the amount of money I’ve lost in our dorm room is already enough to buy you several free meals.”
Zhao Hongqi’s face turned red with embarrassment, then he got angry. “What do you mean?”
Feng Jun ignored him and walked outside.
Zhao Hongqi, however, stopped him and caught his shoulder. “Stop there. You must make it clear today.”
Feng Jun got rid of his hand and asked coldly, “Don’t you know that I’ve lost money in our dorm room?”
Zhao Hongqi felt more embarrassed now. “Of course I know it, but why did you say that to my face?”
“I mean all of my roommates are aware that I’ve lost money, but I didn’t say that you’ve stolen my money. Why are you panicking?” said Feng Jun and spread out his hands. “Do you feel guilty?”
After he lost his money, he asked people around, so everyone knew about it. Actually, he wasn’t sure who had stolen his money, but he thought it was highly possible to be Zhao Hongqi.
Zhao Hongqi didn’t know what to say and could only watch Feng Jun walking away from his sight. He didn’t dare to swear until Feng Jun was gone. “He’s so mean! It’s my bad luck living in the same dorm room with him.”
When he tried to clear his name, Feng Jun went back to his dorm and packed up his stuff. He was prepared to leave and go straight to a phone store.
He really intended to buy a new phone. There were only a few applications on his old phone. The most troublesome thing was that the WeChat couldn’t be uninstalled on the customized phone, but there wasn’t enough memory to update. It took at least half a minute for him to grab a red envelope, and it would crash once he wasn’t careful.
It was impossible for him to surf on other websites.
In the old days, he was unwilling to buy a new phone and was afraid it might be stolen by other people, but now, everything was different.
He had a bright future ahead, and he just made a big deal today. There was no reason for him not to buy a new phone.
Most importantly, he could install more new applications on his new phone and try to learn more about his adventure.
He wanted to figure out whether the adventure could happen on another phone.
Feng Jun walked around in the phone store for a while. He then bought a new phone with a domestic brand.
His new phone needed a nano-SIM card, but he only had a normal SIM card in his old phone, so Feng Jun decided to use the wireless network to test it first.
It took him a long time to buy a mobile phone with pre-installed software. When he walked out of the phone store, it was nearly 6 pm.
He planned to stay in a hotel because he had already booked a room for a day there. He did not check out at noon because of that.
The hotel wasn’t far away from Hongjie Fitness Club, so he chose to walk there through an alley.
This alley was unusually narrow, and it was more like a gap between several buildings. It could accommodate two small electric vehicles in parallel, but a larger electric vehicle couldn’t pass.
On the other side of the buildings, there was a busy city, while nobody was on this side.
The second Feng Jun turned into the alley, he found three people in front of him standing there with their hands in their pockets.
The three of them faced him with their backs, so they didn’t see Feng Jun. Feng Jun immediately hid himself away, but he suddenly noticed a familiar face.
There was a strong tall man standing in the middle of the three men, and Feng Jun recognized him with a simple glance. He was Liu Shuming.
The next second, a short man ran inside from the other end of the alley, and a woman shouted while chasing behind him, “A thief! Catch the thief!”
Although she shouted for help, nobody was willing to help her, so she could only chase over alone.
When the woman dashed into the alley, she was shocked by the three men. “W-What do you want to do?”
Liu Shuming had a black cloth on his face, and he put on an evil smile. “You’re really bold.”
The woman was in her early twenties and had a ponytail. She was wearing a white short-sleeved silk shirt, a pair of light blue denim hot pants, and a pair of white shoes.
She indeed was very brave and didn’t run away after she saw the three strong men. Instead, she sneered, “Well, are you waiting for me, this friend with a covered face?”
“I don’t want to be caught by the surveillance cameras with a bare face!” Liu Shuming made an order by waving his hand. “Get this fu*k girl!”
“Wait!” The woman snorted and said slowly, “Do you know who I am? You’ll be severely punished if you dare to hurt me.”
“I’ll rape you before I kill you!” Liu Shuming wore an evil smile. “You’ve caused me trouble the other day, and now, you deserve this.”
Without delay, the other two men by his sides ran to attack the woman.
Surprisingly, the woman wasn’t weak at all, and she was able to protect herself from their quick attack.
All of a sudden, the thief threw himself toward her and caught one of her legs, and she finally lost her advantage.
“Sh*t! I should have put on stockings.”
At this time, Feng Jun who looked at them not far away recognized the girl. It turned out that she was one of the four girls who had been to their club the other day.
Liu Shuming wanted to take advantage of them back then, but he was beaten by the four girls afterward, and this girl was one of them.
Feng Jun wasn’t good at remembering women’s faces, and this girl wasn’t stunning, but was comparatively beautiful. It simply was rare to see such a young girl who was excellent at fighting.
When the girl was pressed against the ground by three strong men and no one could hear her scream, Feng Jun walked out while clapping.
Liu Shuming was surprised and turned to squint at him.
“Wow, are you filming an action movie?” said Feng Jun with a broad smile.
Liu Shuming had the intention to pay Feng Jun back too. Because his face was covered in black cloth, he widened his throat, and snarled in a low voice, “Fu*ck off, if you don’t want to die!”
Although he said that, he wouldn’t let him go. He was waiting for Feng Jun to turn around and escape, so he could attack from the back.
Feng Jun, however, wouldn’t be fooled by his trick. “Don’t you feel embarrassed when three of you are bullying a young woman?” He quickly picked up a brick and went to beat them.
He had practiced fighting before, and was quite agile, then hit Liu Shuming’s head with the brick and kicked off another strong man.
It happened only because Liu Shuming wasn’t weak. If Qin Tao were here, he could be easily beaten down by a simple hit with the brick.
Once the two men were removed by him, the young woman struggled to get back to her feet.
Liu Shuming and his people realized that they couldn’t win today, so they escaped at once.
The girl wanted to chase after them, but she was stopped by Feng Jun. “Alright, your bag is here. There is no need to chase them.”
She was struck dumb for a second, then listened to him and turned to pick up her bag. “They can run away, but they can’t hide forever. Thank you so much for your help.”
“It’s fine.” Feng Jun beamed and shook his head. “Why did you run inside this alley alone?”
“My bag was stolen by them!” The girl was still annoyed. She then glanced at Feng Jun and asked, “Have we met somewhere before?”
