Wei Yuan never fully understood what this transformation represented, and after a sleepless night, he finally couldn't help but lay his head on the table and fall asleep.
When he woke up again, he still felt energetic and full of spirit. Thinking there would be no problem, he stepped out of the Video Store to exercise. Usually, as someone who did heavy labor, running for a couple of minutes didn't tire him out. However, today he didn't know why, but after just a few minutes of running, he was already panting as if his body couldn't handle the transformation from last night!
After finding a place to sit and rest for a while, Wei Yuan continued to push himself. By the next ten minutes, he felt completely soaked in sweat, and the beating of his heart seemed so loud that he could hear it clearly if it stopped.
Unable to endure any longer, Wei Yuan took out a cigarette and lit it, taking a deep drag and letting the spicy smoke swirl around in his lungs. After discarding the stimulating cigarette, Wei Yuan chose not to run anymore; instead, he dropped to the ground and did dozens of push-ups. Hearing his bones creaking during the exercise made him realize that his physical issue wasn't due to weakness leading to insufficient strength but rather an inability to sustain exercise...
In simple terms, he lacked endurance because the Mist-like Space had absorbed the Amulet's Spiritual Energy, causing the transformation, which his body couldn't accept at once. Therefore, when he kept exercising and released some energy from his body, the energy from the Mist-like Space in his mind surpassed the energy within him, creating a sense of pressure!
This was Wei Yuan's own deduction. If his inference was correct, then the most important thing right now was to strengthen his physique; otherwise, if he lacked endurance in the long term, he couldn't help but think that when he finally had the chance to break free from the heavy burden of being a virgin, it would lead to an even more humiliating new title: Quick Draw!
Oh my goodness, that consequence was too heavy! Wei Yuan decided to prevent such a tragedy from happening in advance. After resting for a while, he began exercising again and continued for over two hours until he was nearly exhausted and felt a headache coming on before decisively stopping and slowly walking back to the Video Store.
As a result, less than a week into work, Wei Yuan was late. However, this posed no problem for Gu Jing at all. When Wei Yuan arrived at the Video Store, he saw this chubby guy wearing headphones watching movies as if it were something he had to do every day without ever getting tired of it—an emotion that was hard for Wei Yuan to relate to.
Now Wei Yuan no longer needed to work for a living; he just found the job at the Video Store very easygoing. Gu Jing was also easy to get along with; he felt like an emperor among workers and thus had not resigned yet. Moreover, he still needed time to slowly explore his Repairing Ability...
At this moment, as Wei Yuan stood at the entrance of the Video Store and was about to go in, he was attracted by a notice posted on the wall nearby. It read: "Our store specializes in repairing genuine Video Disks for ten yuan each. Various birthday and wedding celebration videotapes for one hundred yuan per roll. Do you remember those youthful moments? Some memories cannot be repaired with money, but our store can!"
What on earth is this fat guy doing? Is he treating himself as a living advertisement? Wei Yuan thought Gu Jing was just a movie enthusiast but forgot that this chubby guy was also the owner of a Video Store. However, after working here for a few shifts and seeing that the business wasn't losing money—which was already quite rare—when did Gu Jing become so savvy in making money?
Although unable to understand Gu Jing's obsession with movies, Wei Yuan clearly knew that when someone was engaged in something they were interested in, being interrupted suddenly could be quite disappointing. Besides, there was no rush at this moment.
However, there was still some doubt in his heart. He walked into the only storage room in the shop, where a chair, a Video Disk player, and a television were placed. Wei Yuan deliberately walked back and forth a few times, hoping to attract the fat guy to start a conversation, but Gu Jing remained unmoved, standing firm like a mountain!
Out of sight, out of mind. Wei Yuan simply closed the door to the storage room and sat next to the cash register, slowly allowing his body to begin self-adjusting and recovering. Only when he could clearly sense that his physical condition had completely recovered did Wei Yuan start picking up the old books he had collected. He glanced around and noticed there were no pedestrians on the street, and the door to the storage room where Gu Jing was also closed by him, so he began his work.
Due to Big White's fear of being discovered, Wei Yuan was still somewhat hesitant. However, after the Restorative Power had been transformed, the effects were very noticeable. Now, as long as he slightly activated the Mist-like Space in his mind, following the pull of his consciousness, Light Ink-Colored Mist would transform into a transparent form in Wei Yuan's hands. As long as he continued to issue commands in his mind, it would continuously output without interruption, which saved him a lot of unnecessary effort compared to having to transform it anew each time he used it before.
Of course, this also gradually increased the efficiency of repairing the old books. Wei Yuan could now clearly perceive his physical condition. After half an hour, he felt a bit strained, but the two large boxes of books he had moved down earlier were completely repaired and organized separately into genuine and pirated copies.
After marking them with a pen, Wei Yuan moved them back to the attic once again and added a large bag over the two boxes to prevent any insects or mice from disturbing them. He then brought down two more boxes and left them at the cash register.
The previous two large boxes already contained one or two hundred genuine books, which were enough for him to negotiate with Liu Haisheng about selling books to schools as the first batch of supplies. Therefore, Wei Yuan was not in a hurry at this moment. He found a movie to watch casually and realized it was already noon when he finished watching it. At that moment, he noticed a young girl in a school uniform with a pure and charming appearance slowly walking into the Video Store!
In fact, she was running in; she was drenched in sweat. Wei Yuan quickly poured her a glass of water and rushed forward to hand it to her. Then he gently brushed along her smooth back to help stabilize her breathing. Wei Yuan could imagine that Lan Xue must have rushed here right after school ended at noon. Feeling both pity and guilt for her effort made him uneasy.
He knew what would make Lan Xue happiest at that moment, so he quickly took out her Sachet and handed it over, waiting for her reaction after she opened it!
When Lan Xue opened the Sachet and took out the Amulet, she was surprised to see that it had been completely repaired. The expression of astonishment on her face was still captivating. After being overjoyed for a moment, she looked at Wei Yuan with gratitude and said, "Thank you!"
Wei Yuan was momentarily stunned; that's not how it went on TV: "What did you say? Repeat that!"
Lan Xue also found it somewhat puzzling but repeated herself: "I thank you."
Hearing this made Wei Yuan anxious: "That's not how they do it in Hong Kong and Taiwan dramas! After the male lead helps the female lead repair her most precious item, at least she should give him a kiss or at least hug him while spinning around!"
Lan Xue asked modestly, "Do you really want to be the male lead?"
