614: Don't Joke About It

Don't Joke About It

Cui Tong's crying stopped abruptly, teardrops on her face as she stared blankly at the pill in Xia Xibei's hand.1

"This is candy?" The agent was also bewildered.

Cui Tong almost started to cry again.

She had to give up meat and sugar, so what was the point of giving her candy now?

Besides, she wasn't a kid! No candy!

Without waiting for her to stomp her feet, Xia Xibei had already spoken, "It's not candy, it's a pill."

"Pill?"

Everyone was surprised.

"If you take this pill, no matter what you eat, you won't gain weight."

Xia Xibei stuffed the pill into Cui Tong's hand.

"Huh?"

Everyone's expression was shocked, including Pan Yan.

"Are you kidding?" Cui Tong's agent had a suspicious and unhappy face.

This was not something that could be joked about.

Cui Tong was lazy and didn't like to exercise, but she was prone to gaining weight, so, this time, if she wanted to lose that weight, she had to eat vegetarian.

At this time, if Xia Xibei took out a candy and passed it off as a pill, it would be too much.

And after eating this candy, she'd continue to eat meat, so wasn't that even worse?!

If Cui Tong ate this meal and gained weight the next day, it would be all over!

"Xibei..." 

Pan Yan gave Xia Xibei a look, telling her not to mess around.

If she was an ordinary person, gaining a few pounds was not a problem.

However, this was the cruel entertainment industry!

When on camera, even a little more weight would be seen with a magnifying glass, and then a lot of ridicule.

So, fat was the natural enemy of most stars.

If Xia Xibei encouraged Cui Tong to eat meat and she grew fat afterwards, it would start a feud!

"Don't worry, I'm not lying to you." Xia Xibei shrugged. "This is called the slimming pill. After taking it, there's no problem with binge eating in 48 hours. It will help the body automatically regulate. Other than the body's necessary energy, the rest will be expelled from the body, so there's no worry about gaining weight."

Everyone was left stunned, not understanding.

They were confused, as if they were listening to a myth.

"Oh," the agent laughed dryly, "That's not a funny joke. I've never heard of such a magical thing."

"Of course you haven't heard of it." Xia Xibei laughed. "Because it's just been made, it's not on the market yet."

Agent was speechless.

That sounded like she just made a stir-fry dish.

This was too casual, right?

Xia Xibei was now like a charlatan, claiming that she could cure all diseases. Her skin was too thick.

"Don't worry, this pill has no side effects. At most, you'd make two more trips to the toilet." 

Xia Xibei's smile was unchanged.

The agent's face was even more unpleasant. The more she talked, the more it sounded like it was true.

"If you have this kind of pill, isn't there a pill that can make you lose weight the more you eat?" He couldn't help but ask sarcastically.

"Yes, how did you know?"

Xia Xibei, as if by magic, pulled out another bottle while smiling brightly. 

"This is the weight-loss pill. After taking one, no matter how much you eat and drink, not only will you not gain weight, you'll slowly slim down!"

Everyone was shocked. Damn, this lie was getting bigger and bigger!

"Miss Xia!" The agent was sullen, with a serious and unpleasant expression. "I know you mean well, but don't make such jokes, okay?"

Although he was angry, he didn't want to fight openly.

Xia Xibei grunted, "Weren't you guys surprised that I didn't gain weight, even though I eat so much? This is the secret."

Huh?

Cui Tong, misty-eyed, fiercely pulled on Xia Xibei's hand, her eyes amazingly bright. 

"Really?!"
