疯狂的妻子

As Liu Yong went through his daily routine in the office, his thoughts often drifted towards his pet Bawang and bodyguard, Chen Hu. 

After reading a document, he gently placed it on the desk and made himself a cup of coffee. As he savoured the warm, bitter drink, he couldn't help but think about Chen Hu's physical capabilities.

Being someone who appreciated physical strength and fitness, Liu Yong felt that Chen Hu would benefit from going to the gym to work on his power. 

Liu Yong believed Chen Hu was already loyal enough but needed his bodyguard to be solid and robust. So, he decided to enhance Chen Hu's strength attribute by 50 points, bringing it to a staggering 100.

Sitting at his desk, Liu Yong turned his attention to his pet, Bawang. He opened up the pet panel and marvelled at its growth since yesterday. 

Breaking through a bottleneck the previous day, Bawang had grown an astounding 1.6 tons in just one day, now weighing 101.6 tons. Liu Yong was amazed by the growth rate and wondered if it was even possible.

However, it wasn't just Bawang's weight that had increased. Its various attributes had also improved, including an impressive 75-point increase in its strength attribute, which was now at 6125. 

Liu Yong was impressed by the progress and felt proud of his pet.

Satisfied with the progress of both his pet and bodyguard, Liu Yong decided to take things further.

  He planned to enhance Chen Hu's physique and agility attributes later on, transforming him into a real-life superhero.

He envisioned a powerful, agile, and loyal bodyguard unrivalled. And with his determination and resources, Liu Yong knew he could make it happen.

Chen Hu was changing the barbell plates when a few people approached him, including a stocky young man. 

The young man appeared to be a weightlifter, and upon seeing Chen Hu practising with the barbell, he frowned slightly. Sensing the young man's disapproval, the assistant quickly suggested that Chen Hu moves to the side to practice on the same equipment.

However, Chen Hu pretended not to hear the assistant's suggestion and continued his workout. He couldn't help but think that the group was impolite and should have respected the first come, first served rule. After all, Chen Hu had been using the equipment for a while before they arrived.

The young man, who identified himself as a member of the provincial weightlifting team, reiterated the request for Chen Hu to move to the side so that he could perform his strength training.

Chen Hu wasn't impressed by the young man's credentials and thought sarcastically, "the provincial weightlifting team is amazing!".

ραпdα---nᴏνa| сom Chen Hu replaced the green 10kg barbell plates with red 25kg ones. The gym coach intervened and asked Chen Hu to move to the side as the young man was a VIP in the gym. 

However, Chen Hu saw no reason to move as there was enough space for everyone, and he, too, was a VIP of the gym. 

He responded to the coach, "I'm sorry, but I am also a VIP of this gym, and besides, there is enough space for all of us. There is no need for me to step aside."

Chen Hu stood his ground, determined to finish his workout without being interrupted by the young man and his entourage. The situation was getting interesting, and he was curious about what would happen next.

Yu Wu is a strong and promising young man who is part of the provincial weightlifting team, with aspirations of joining the national team. His family is well-off and has provided him with an assistant, which is not an everyday luxury for weightlifters, even at the national level. Despite some time off from provincial team training, Yu Wu still diligently exercises daily, focusing mainly on strength training.

When Yu Wu arrived at the gym, he noticed Chen Hu occupying a weightlifting station. The assistant, clearly unhappy with Chen Hu's presence, expressed concern that his behaviour would affect Yu Wu's training. 

However, Chen Hu didn't seem to mind and continued to lift weights with ease.

Yu Wu couldn't help but feel disdainful as he looked at Chen Hu's barbell, which weighed only 80 kg. So he boldly proclaimed, "Get me a barbell with a total weight of 100 kg." Someone quickly brought him the barbell without hesitation, and he did his squats.

Meanwhile, Chen Hu was still lifting his barbell, smiling as he added two more red plates, bringing the total weight to 130 kg, 30 kg more than Yu Wu was lifting. 

As the saying goes, "The boat does not weigh its load," which was undoubtedly true in the case of weightlifting. Even adding just a few kilograms to the barbell can make a significant difference in the level of difficulty.

Chen Hu's barbell could have impressed Yu Wu and his fellow weightlifting experts. They could easily see the total weight of the barbell at a glance and felt that it was too light. 

They couldn't help but curl their lips in disdain.

"What kind of strongman are you? Can you carry a 130 kg barbell?" 

Yu Wu taunted, looking down on Chen Hu's abilities.

Chen Hu, feeling slightly embarrassed, decided to try lifting the barbell. Surprisingly, he found it a little lighter than he had anticipated.

"Well, forget it, let's do this for now, I'm too lazy to add barbell plates," Chen Hu said, trying to hide his disappointment.

He then did squat exercises with standard movements once, twice, and again. His actions were widespread, and it was obvious from a glance that he often used barbells for squat strength exercises.

The person next to him was stunned by his flawless technique. 

They all looked dull, including Yu Wu, who was beginning to realise that he may have underestimated Chen Hu.

However, he still couldn't believe anyone could efficiently perform squats with a 130 kg barbell. He had only ever managed up to 5 repetitions with that weight.

"His barbell plate is fake, and it must be fake, isn't it, Coach Zhang?" Yu Wu's assistant finally shouted out, unable to believe what he saw.

Coach Zhang, overseeing the gym, needed clarification and wondered if there was a problem with the barbell plates. 

However, he knew that the barbell plates in their gym were very standard, so there shouldn't be any problems.

Despite their surprise, Chen Hu continued his squat training, performing 20 squats before stopping. His usual exercise routine involved doing five sets of 20 squats, totalling 100 standard squats. This way, almost all the muscles of his body could be well exercised.

After finishing his workout, Chen Hu stopped and put down the barbell. Coach Zhang walked over to lift the barbell and confirm its weight.

"Mr. Yu, it is definitely a 130 kg barbell. There is no mistake," 

Coach Zhang announced, leaving Yu Wu stunned and embarrassed by his initial disbelief.

Yu Wu had been proven wrong. Chen Hu was a genuine strongman, and his impressive performance left everyone amazed and in awe of his strength and ability.

Chen Hu was genuinely unbelievable. Not only had he loaded white barbell plates onto the barbell, but each piece weighed a whopping 5 kilograms, bringing the total weight of the barbell pair to a staggering 140 kilograms. 

Yu Wu, a weightlifter himself, knew the difficulty of lifting such a heavy weight, especially when it came to squats.

"I don't know how you do it, man," Yu Wu said in awe as he watched Chen Hu effortlessly load the barbell.

Chen Hu shrugged nonchalantly. "It's all about technique," he replied with a grin.

Yu Wu couldn't help but feel a little envious of Chen Hu's incredible strength. "I can lift this weight," he said, "but I don't think I can do squats with it."

The world records for men's weightlifting in the 62kg, 69kg, and 77kg categories were 154kg, 166kg, and 176kg, respectively. 

Despite being a player in the 69 kg class and having a personal best score of over 150 kilograms, Yu Wu knew that attempting squats with a 140 kg barbell would be a daunting task.

"I don't think I can even do one repetition with this weight," Yu Wu said with a hint of defeat. 

"I might strain my muscles if I try."

Chen Hu, however, was unfazed. He quickly grabbed the barbell and began performing squats with perfect form. The barbell clattering against the floor echoed throughout the gym as Chen Hu continued to lift the heavy weight effortlessly.

"Crush!" Chen Hu exclaimed as he finished his set.

Yu Wu looked on in complete awe. He couldn't believe what he had just witnessed. "What is he doing?" he muttered to himself.

Suddenly, Chen Hu turned to face Yu Wu, and the others gathered to watch. "Who's next?" he asked with a mischievous glint in his eye.
