Chapter 539: Chapter 324: Cycling with Tang Wan 2

"Mhm, mhm."

Tang Wan found the lyrics and demonstrated what she’d practiced for Lin Jiang.

Overall, she sounded pretty good. The details were well-handled, but her only problem was still unstable breath control.

"It’s still a breathing issue. First, you’re projecting from the wrong place. You need to understand how to use your core to generate power."

Lin Jiang gestured on his own body. "It’s the spot about three fingers below your navel."

"Think about the feeling of sneezing. You have to use the power from your core to push the air out."

Following Lin Jiang’s instructions, Tang Wan placed her hand on her lower abdomen and coughed a few times, trying to find the feeling he described.

"Try making a ’ha’ sound. That should make it easier."

"Ha..."

Tang Wan gave it a try, and her eyes suddenly lit up.

"I think I’m starting to get a feel for it."

After practicing for a bit, Tang Wan gradually grasped the technique Lin Jiang was describing.

Afterward, Lin Jiang taught her abdominal breathing. It took a little over an hour, but she managed to grasp the fundamentals.

"But the foundation for all of this is good physical conditioning. You should do more cardio. Running, Swimming, or cycling would all work."

"What a coincidence. President Fang mentioned the same thing to me, telling me to exercise more. So I got a new bicycle, and I plan to go for rides whenever I’m free," Tang Wan said with a smile.

"President Lin, want to see my gear?"

"Where is it?"

"In the bedroom."

Tang Wan pulled Lin Jiang along to the bedroom, where a Trek bicycle was parked.

Lin Jiang didn’t know much about bicycles, but he’d heard of the brand and knew their bikes weren’t cheap.

But what really caught Lin Jiang’s eye was the bra hanging on the bike’s frame. It was a push-up style that looked very full, and more importantly, the size was definitely not small.

Seeing her bra, Tang Wan rushed over, snatched it up, and tossed it into the closet.

Last night, Tang Wan had picked out this lingerie set, planning to wear it today.

But when she got up this morning, she suddenly remembered Lin Jiang was coming over. She figured wearing such a form-fitting, push-up style wouldn’t be appropriate, so she’d put on a sports bra instead to make her chest look smaller.

But after changing, she got busy with other things and completely forgot about it.

Besides, this was her bedroom. She never imagined Lin Jiang would come in here.

She was the one who’d forgotten, not thinking of it at all.

"Nice figure. And a nice style, too."

"President Lin, don’t tease me. My figure is nothing compared to President Fang’s."

"You two have completely different styles. You can’t compare them."

In terms of physique alone, Fang Jie could be considered a plus-sized version of Tang Wan. They were similar in most respects, but Fang Jie was a bit more curvaceous.

The real difference between them was their personal charm.

Although Tang Wan also had a mature air about her, she had never been married or had children. In terms of that special charm, she fell short by a wide margin. But, to each their own. It all depends on personal preference.

"Actually, I think President Fang and I are pretty similar. We’re both the ’slim waist, wide hips, big butt’ type. When I was filming, it gave Director Li a headache for a while."

"What did he have to worry about?"

"He said my figure didn’t look like a middle-aged woman’s. For the scene where Xia Luo returns to see Ma Dongmei after becoming famous, Director Li barely dared to film my lower half. He was afraid it would pull the audience out of the story."

Lin Jiang’s eyes roamed up and down Tang Wan’s figure.

"It’s not that obvious in this outfit, but you were wearing a dress yesterday. The effect was pretty clear then."

"That’s why I don’t really dare to wear jeans anymore. If I wear a tight top with them, the proportions look even more exaggerated."

Tang Wan looked at Lin Jiang with a smile:

"So, President Lin, you can rest assured. When I’m performing on stage in the future, my figure won’t let you down."

In a way, Tang Wan was also trying to secure an opportunity for herself.

When they were recording the song yesterday, Lin Jiang had mentioned his intention to sign He Wenyi.

If he really signed her, the two of them would likely become rivals. So she had to create some opportunities for herself.

In the glitzy world of entertainment, looks and figure were crucial. She couldn’t be too modest; she had to make sure her boss knew her strengths.

"Talk is cheap. Don’t think I’ll believe you just because you say so."

Hearing this, Tang Wan was suddenly struck with the idea to show off her figure for him. But after a moment of internal conflict, she was too embarrassed to say it out loud.

"Then I’ll have to find a chance to show President Lin."

"That’s an excellent suggestion."

Lin Jiang didn’t pursue the topic, instead turning his gaze to Tang Lang’s bicycle.

"This bike of yours is nice. Looks pretty professional."

"I actually started cycling last year. I first bought an XDS, but I was usually too lazy and had too much work from the school, so I barely rode it. Now that I don’t have to deal with school work anymore, I upgraded my bike and plan to make cycling a regular thing."

"Sounds a bit like ’out with the old, in with the new,’ doesn’t it? The moment you get some money, you ditch your old bike."

Tang Wan hadn’t thought of it that way, but now that Lin Jiang mentioned it, she realized it did have that kind of vibe.

"Hey, I’m not like that! It’s just an upgrade."

Tang Wan looked at Lin Jiang. "President Lin, you seem like you work out. Have you ever gone cycling?"

"Never have, but cycling seems to be really popular online lately. I hear the scene can get a little wild."

"No way. Don’t listen to the nonsense people say online."

"If it’s not wild, I’m not interested. That would be boring."

Tang Wan froze for a second. It took her a few moments to realize what Lin Jiang was implying.

"PFFT... HAHAHA... President Lin, you’re hilarious."

He hadn’t noticed before, but now that he looked, Tang Wan was surprisingly buxom.

"Actually, that sort of thing happens in every scene. It just depends on how you conduct yourself. Besides..."

Tang Wan trailed off, then continued with a smile.

"...Besides, I get the feeling that with President Lin’s standards, you probably wouldn’t be interested in anyone from that scene anyway."

’She could guess that the relationship between Lin Jiang and Fang Jie wasn’t a simple one. One had to be on President Fang’s level to even catch President Lin’s eye.’

’And look at what I’m wearing,’ she thought, ’It’s so plain. If I’d known, I wouldn’t have worn this today.’

"Whether or not I’m interested is one thing. At the very least, it’s some nice scenery."

Lin Jiang thought about it and realized she had a point.

Cycling gear was even more revealing than yoga pants.

"President Lin, want to go together? We can get some exercise, and I can work on building my stamina so I can record this song before the end of the month."

"Alright. It’ll be a good chance to see if your form is any good."

"But haven’t you never cycled before?"

"Never having done it doesn’t mean I don’t know how. The two aren’t mutually exclusive."

’He’s right, they aren’t mutually exclusive... but if he’s never even ridden a bike before, how could his form be professional?’

"President Lin, you can ride my Trek. I’ll ride my old XDS."

"No need to give me the good one. The XDS is fine for me."

"You’re my boss. As your employee, I can’t let you ride the old bike," Tang Wan said with a smile.

"It’s all the same to me. I’m not one for special treatment. Let’s just go with ’ladies first.’"

"Well, thank you, President Lin!"

Tang Wan checked her watch. "It’s 11 AM now. We could ride until three. We can grab lunch somewhere nearby, or I could pack some snacks. If we find a scenic spot, we could even have a little picnic."

"That’s a good idea."

"I’ll pack some things from home then, just in case."

"Okay."

Tang Wan went back to her room to pack her gear, and then the two of them left with the bikes.

The Maybach was spacious enough to fit both bikes with room to spare.

Following Tang Wan’s directions, they drove to Huhai Road.

According to Tang Wan, it was a great place for cycling—not much traffic and very friendly for novices.

Once they arrived, Lin Jiang unloaded the two bikes while Tang Wan got back in the car to change.

The weather was a little chilly, so Tang Wan changed into a pair of thick yoga pants, a form-fitting cycling jersey, and an Arc’teryx hardshell jacket.

"President Lin, you’re going to be at a real disadvantage in those clothes."

"Forget this XDS. I could beat you on an old, heavy-duty roadster. Believe it or not."

"I don’t believe you!"

Tang Wan said firmly, "You may be the boss, and I may only be a beginner, but you have zero experience and don’t even have the most basic gear. There’s no way you can beat me."

"Then let’s make a bet."

"I’m fine with that." Tang Wan thought for a moment, then said:

"President Lin, if you can beat me while wearing those clothes... I’ll give you that figure show."
