Monica decided to stop. She had been running for more than an hour and had already completed her target amount of exercise.
She walked to the side and sat down. While wiping the sweat off her body with a towel, she looked at the two men on the treadmill with great interest.
Xia Ruofei was basically no different from when he first started running. His breathing was still so stable, his steps were still so steady, and there wasn't even much sweat on his body.
Monica's pair of beautiful eyes bloomed with a burst of splendor.
She loved sports. When she was on business trips around the world, the hotel's gym was a place she had to visit. She had also seen many fitness experts, but she had never seen a situation like Xia Ruofei's.
Xia Ruofei's body didn't look strong. He even gave off the feeling of a weak scholar, but it seemed like he would never die from running. Looking at Xia Ruofei's state, Monica even had the illusion that he could keep running like this forever.
Could it be the mysterious power of the ancient East? Monica muttered in her heart.
Blake, who was next to her, was already in a very sorry state.
His body was sweating like rain, and his mouth was wide open like a fish out of oxygen. He was gasping for air, and his face was very pale. His footsteps were already unable to maintain a stable rhythm, and he was barely able to keep up with the speed of the treadmill.
In the beginning, Blake would turn his head from time to time and look at Xia Ruofei provocatively. Now, he couldn't even take care of himself. He gritted his teeth and held on because he could see from the corner of his eye that Xia Ruofei was still running non-stop.
Blake, who was in a difficult position, was still holding on. On the other hand, Xia Ruofei was still calm and composed. He even had the time to remind Monica, "Monica, I think you'd better take a shower first. Otherwise, you'll catch a cold easily."
"Are you concerned about me?" Monica asked with a grin.
"Uh …" Xia Ruofei scratched his head and said, "Just a friendly reminder!"
"Haha! The Eastern Bolt is shy! "Monica pointed at Xia Ruofei and laughed.
Xia Ruofei said in shock, "The Eastern Bolt?"
"Aren't you as good at running as Usain Bolt?"
"That's a sprinter, okay?" Xia Ruofei didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
Monica was overjoyed. "It's all the same, all the same …"
Blake had already reached his limit. Seeing that Xia Ruofei and Monica were chatting happily, he was even more tired and anxious. He couldn't help but feel his legs go soft, and he fell onto the treadmill.
The treadmill instantly turned into a conveyor belt, and Blake was directly "transported" to the back of the treadmill. Then, he rolled to the ground and grimaced in pain.
Seeing this, Monica doubled over in laughter.
The staff of the gym hurriedly came over to help Blake up and asked him if he was injured.
Blake kept sucking in cold air in pain and pointed at his ankle.
The staff hurriedly called for the gym's specialized sports doctor, and a few of them helped Blake to the side to treat his injury.
Blake and Xia Ruofei's competition was seen by a few people who were training on the treadmills nearby. Now that they saw Blake in such a sorry state, while Xia Ruofei was still calmly running at a constant speed, they couldn't help but take a few more glances at Xia Ruofei.
Most of the guests in the hotel were from Huaxia, and most of them were secretly cheering for Xia Ruofei, thinking that he was quite ambitious.
Monica smiled and said, "Xia, take your time running! I'm going to take a shower first, and I'll come over to see you later … "
"Okay! See you later! "Xia Ruofei said as he ran.
After Monica left, Xia Ruofei simply increased the speed of the treadmill and ran at an even faster speed.
All the facilities in the Jiahua Hotel were first-class. The treadmill was the latest model from Ikang, and its performance was absolutely top-notch. However, after maintaining such a high speed for a long time, the sound of the motor became a bit heavy, as if it couldn't bear the load.
Ten minutes, twenty minutes …
Xia Ruofei ran tirelessly. He had been running for almost two hours, and he was running at an average speed of 13 kilometers per hour.
Slowly, Xia Ruofei attracted a lot of people to watch.
When some people just entered the gym, Xia Ruofei was running; when he finished his preparation, Xia Ruofei was running; when he practiced all kinds of equipment, Xia Ruofei was running; when he was sweating profusely on the treadmill, Xia Ruofei was still running; when he came back from a shower, Xia Ruofei was still running …
It was just a simple run, but because of the continuous running, the shock it brought to people was far more than those fierce men who were doing bends and high flips.
Everyone was looking at the seemingly tireless Xia Ruofei as if they were looking at a monster, and some people were whispering.
"This person is really fierce! When I came in, he was already running. It must have been an hour! Such a fast speed … "
"An hour? It's already been more than two hours! And he's been running at such a fast speed! "
"Awesome!"
"Just now, a white man challenged him, and he ran until he was disabled …"
"Damn! He's showing off our country's prestige! "
…
When Monica came back to the gym after her shower, Xia Ruofei was still running tirelessly …
Blake treated his injured ankle, took a shower, and came back to the gym. When he saw Xia Ruofei was still running on the treadmill, he couldn't help but reach out to touch his forehead.
What kind of monster is this! Why did I provoke him for no reason? Blake wailed in his heart.
He picked up his jacket and backpack, and limped out of the gym without saying a word.
Monica had already changed into a light pink sports jacket. She sat on the leather chair opposite Xia Ruofei's treadmill, her hands supporting her cheeks as she watched Xia Ruofei run.
Xia Ruofei felt that many people around him were looking at him, especially Monica's beautiful blue eyes, which were almost fixed on him. He also felt a little uncomfortable.
After running for more than ten minutes, Xia Ruofei simply reached out to press the switch. The treadmill gradually slowed down and finally came to a stop — in fact, if he wanted to run, Xia Ruofei could continue running for a long time.
Xia Ruofei jumped off the treadmill easily, reached out to take a towel from the pole beside him, and symbolically wiped the sweat on his face — in fact, he didn't sweat much.
Xia Ruofei could also easily complete this amount of exercise when he was serving in the army, but he definitely wouldn't be as calm as he was now. After 20 to 30 kilometers of running with weights, his clothes would definitely be soaked inside and out. How could he be as relaxed as he was now?
All of this was naturally brought about by the strange flower petals.
When Xia Ruofei finished running, there was even a burst of applause in the gym.
Xia Ruofei picked up his jacket and said goodbye to Monica — he was going to return to the presidential suite to take a bath. The conditions there were much better than in the gym.
Monica smiled and said to Xia Ruofei, "Xia, aren't you going to treat me to a cup of coffee?"
