I Became the Little Demon in Leading Role's Family

Chapter 677: Chapter 686 I Just Want to Lose a Little Weight

Bai Zhi watched as Bai Fei held her chopsticks, peered into the pot, and then turned away in disgust.

That wasn’t controlling her appetite; that was outright anorexia.

“Cousin, do you really not want to eat? The flavor is really great. Look, all these dishes you usually love are here, are you sure you won’t have any?”

Bai Zhi pointed at the dishes that weren’t picked yet, lamb rolls, beef, all Bai Fei’s favorites.

If it were before, even if she couldn’t eat, Bai Fei would have looked on with yearning eyes, but now she didn’t, she even felt like vomiting with just one more glance.

Her bowl didn’t have rice, let alone any dishes in it.

“How on earth did you manage to lose weight, why won’t you eat at all?”

Bai Zhi frowned, stood up, and walked over to her, grabbing Bai Fei’s hand and started to take her pulse.

The longer the time passed, the uglier Bai Zhi’s expression became.

“How did you diet to such an extent!”

She actually damaged her stomach and liver; no wonder she looked so spiritless despite having lost weight.

“I…” Bai Fei lowered her head, realizing she couldn’t hide it any longer and began to speak slowly, “It was that ‘Slimming Essential Oil,’ the one, the one that…”

The one Nan Xi and the others concocted.

Bai Fei closed her eyes, not daring to look into Bai Zhi’s eyes.

Actually, she had never considered using it before, really.

She wanted to lose weight naturally, and she had tried many methods. From running, exercising every day, to eating less.

Every day she would be so tired and sweaty, but in the end, she didn’t lose weight, she didn’t know what to do.

“At first, I thought about losing weight through exercise, but daily running didn’t slim me down.

Then I tried jumping rope, even followed their suggestion to hike, but I still didn’t lose weight.”

Bai Fei remembered that period as a nightmare in her life, no matter what she did, whatever she tried, those fats would forever cling to her body, impossible to shed.

It was utterly frustrating; she didn’t know what to do.

And at that time, did she really, really want to lose weight that badly?

“I remember you said once, ‘a person who doesn’t eat lacks a soul; for the sake of eating, you’d always be willing to be fat.’”

Moreover, Bai Fei wasn’t that overweight, and due to exercising, she had slimmed down to just a bit of baby fat on her cheeks, not truly fat.

But now she had lost weight, to a shocking degree.

“Yeah,” Bai Fei nodded, not daring to look at Bai Zhi, “But there’s another part to that saying, ‘unless you meet someone you like.’”

Bai Zhi: “…”

Bai Xiang: “…” His sister actually had someone she liked.

Wu Wa: “??”

“In the first year of middle school, at the sports meet, I raced the 800 meters with a very handsome upperclassman and then I lost.

I was so upset, I went to eat spicy hot skewers alone. I ordered the largest portion and finished it right in front of him.”

To this day, Bai Fei could still recall the upperclassman’s astonished gaze, he must have been thinking, where did this glutton come from.

“He didn’t just refrain from calling me fat, he even bought me a drink.

Afterward, we went to school together, and he’d help me with homework problems.

He took me to play basketball and would eat spicy hot skewers with me.

I discovered he was such a foodie too.

We tasted the newest flavored popsicles together. Bought Spicy Chicken Gizzard together.

We even sneakily went for kebabs.

I found out that when it comes to eating, I had a friend who shared my passion.

I really liked him a lot.”

The light in Bai Fei’s eyes sparkled; every time she thought of her senior, the corners of her mouth would involuntarily curve upwards.

The senior was incredibly kind, like the winter sun, the summer popsicles, impossible to be without.

But the most frustrating thing was, no matter how much the senior ate, he never gained weight, while she was getting fatter and fatter.

She noticed the mocking looks of others when they saw them together.

But the most important thing was, the senior said that the girl he liked was very cute, very pretty.

And she…

“I want to lose some weight, just a bit. Only then will I have the courage to tell him that I like him.

So I started trying every method to lose weight, but nothing worked.

It was then I noticed Xiao Hei from the village had actually slimmed down.

Only after asking did I find out she was using that slimming essential oil.

At first, I kept telling myself not to use it, but later I just couldn’t take it anymore, and I…”

She really had no other option, as the new school term was about to start, yet she remained just as overweight.

“I want him to see that I’ve slimmed down when school starts.

We can finally be in the same school again, and I want to tell him that I like him.”

She knew that appearances aren’t everything, but aren’t appearances the first thing everyone notices?

Even if the senior doesn’t care, what about his friends?

Do they not care either?

She didn’t want to experience those kinds of looks at school like she had before.

Being hurt was enough for her to handle on her own.

“I need to know what this slimming essential oil is like, and how you’ve felt using it. That’s all you have to tell me.”

Bai Zhi felt somewhat helpless; there is nothing wrong with having a crush. But you’re blindly dieting, and there are side effects.

“Which is more important to you, your health or being slim?”

Bai Fei replied without hesitation, “Of course, being slim.”

Only by being slim does one become beautiful and liked by others.

If you’re not slim, then you’re just a fatty that no one likes.

Bai Zhi smacked Bai Fei firmly and glared at her fiercely, “Cut it out, if you keep going like this. Later on, you’ll get dizzy spells, lose your appetite, and you might even feel faint just sitting down.

You still like the senior; the real question will be whether you can even stand up.”

Bai Zhi wasn’t just trying to scare Bai Fei; who hasn’t broken down over dieting?

“Cousin, I know you really want to lose weight, and that’s normal. We all want to be a little slimmer.

But our bodies sometimes can’t handle blind dieting methods. You might slim down now, but it could make you even fatter afterward.

If there are side effects, you are the one who will suffer. Do you understand that?”

Bai Zhi could only empathize with Bai Fei’s thoughts; after all, she had once done the same, sacrificing everything for weight loss, only to end up with her health in shambles.

“I know… I know.”

Bai Fei’s smile was tinged with bitterness; of course, she knew.

Forget about the future; even now, she started to feel lightheaded and developed an instinctive aversion to delicious food, not wanting to eat it.

“At first, I was very careful, using only a small amount. But before long, the weight started dropping off.

It kept dropping, pound by pound, and my appetite began to shrink; eating too much made me feel uncomfortable.

I was so happy; I was finally seeing results, but recently…

My hair has been falling out in clumps, I feel so dizzy it’s like the sky is spinning.

I get tired so easily, I don’t even want to eat, and just looking at food makes me feel like vomiting.”

Lately, Bai Fei had been really struggling. Although she had slimmed down, she started losing her appetite.

She couldn’t sleep at night, her hair was falling out in handfuls, and she felt frequent nausea at the pit of her stomach.

It was like there was something stuck there, an awful feeling, making her want to throw up.

It was crushing her, but she couldn’t stop, all because she saw her own chin when she looked in the mirror; she had started to slim down.

She couldn’t bear to give that up.

“So why won’t you tell me?” Bai Zhi glared at her fiercely.

“Come with me!”
