Yukinoshita Yukino pressed her temples lightly as if she had a headache. "I should practice with the second-order juice first, get a feel for the critical point of temperature control, and then try the first-order juice."

"Uh... second?"

"Just add the first batch of kelp and bonito flakes to water, bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Add new bonito flakes and strain." Yukinoshita Yukino instructed Azuma Yunshan. "Try it and see if there's any difference."

"Well...better than I can do."

"What's the difference between that and my cooking?"

"The color and flavor are lighter." Dong Yunshan took another sip and said, "It's a little bitter."

"So the first and second dashi are used in different places. The first dashi is used to highlight the umami flavor of the broth," Yukino Yukinoshita explained, "and the second dashi is used to enhance flavor and stimulate the taste of the ingredients."

"I understand." Dong Yunshan translated it into something easier to understand, "The main character and the supporting character."

"That's understandable." Yukinoshita Yukino nodded. "In some high-end dishes, the first and second dashi are mixed to balance the flavor levels. Different types of kelp have different flavors, and different dried bonito is selected and cut in different ways according to the needs..."

"for example?"

"Find it yourself, learn it yourself, and try it yourself." Yukinoshita Yukino glared at him, "Just follow the process just now, try it yourself once, then go out and eat it, compare and summarize the differences in taste, find the problems, and keep improving it."

"So that's all for today's teaching?"

"It's just the beginning." Yukinoshita Yukino's eyes turned, "Is there something you're in a hurry to do?"

"Daily training." Dong Yunshan answered truthfully, "I haven't had much time recently, so I wanted to pick it up quickly."

"About how long will it take?"

"Thirty minutes is enough."

Yukinoshita Yukino nodded: "Then continue in thirty minutes."

Dong Yunshan returned to the bedroom, changed into breathable clothes, and went to the balcony to start his daily training.

A two-minute high-leg stepping warm-up increases heart rate, dynamic lunge rotation activates the lower limbs and thoracic spine, and side steps touching the ground stretch the inner thigh muscles... Dong Yunshan can clearly feel that his body is waking up little by little, and his heart is beating to pump blood to the whole body.

This is what it feels like to be alive.

Yukinoshita Yukino held a teacup and looked at Azuma Yunshan on the balcony. Seeing the obvious smile on his face, she discovered something she had ignored for a long time.

Dong Yunshan really likes fitness.

For a long time, Yukinoshita Yukino thought that Azuma Yunshan's fitness was a manifestation of his formalism.

Fitness can make him have a healthy body, and a healthy body will make him feel healthy, and then think that his mind is as healthy as his body.

But now it seems... Dong Yunshan simply likes the feeling of fitness.

He is really enjoying the process.

After taking a sip of red tea, Yukinoshita Yukino faced her mistakes.

Because Dong Yunshan has the problem of formalism, it is wrong to think that everything he does is just a formality.

If I had recognized my mistakes earlier, I wouldn’t have discovered such a good way to correct them only now.

It’s not too late now.

Yukinoshita Yukino put down her teacup: "Is there a training plan suitable for me?"

"Hmm?" Dong Yunshan stopped and said, "You want to join us too?"

"I usually do some daily exercise." Yukinoshita Yukino decided to use fitness to correct Dong Yunshan's condition. First, she needed to learn more about fitness. "But since I'm doing it by myself, I don't know if I'm doing it right."

Dong Yunshan's eyes lit up: "Then you have found the right person. Change into clothes that are convenient for exercise and we will start right away."

Sure enough, I'm very excited... Yukinoshita Yukino nodded slightly, went back to the bedroom, changed into convenient sports shorts and a T-shirt, and tied her long hair into a ponytail.

"What's wrong?" Noticing Azuma Yunshan's gaze, Yukinoshita Yukino looked at herself puzzledly, "Is there a problem?"

"That's quite unusual." Dong Yunshan looked me up and down. "I've never seen you dressed for sports."

Yukinoshita Yukino flexed her wrist and smiled: "You'll get used to it slowly."

She has decided to use Dong Yunshan's love for fitness to correct him.

So she would have to dress like this in front of Dong Yunshan in the future.

"Hmm?" Dong Yunshan looked at her suspiciously, "I always feel like you are planning something."

Yukinoshita Yukino answered truthfully: "I am planning to correct you."

"...I don't need to ask any more questions." Dong Yunshan clapped his hands, "Then let's get started."

"Do what you just did?"

"You do the simplified version." Dong Yunshan listed them all, "High leg step against the wall, seated spinal twist, standing side waist stretch..."

Compared with Dong Yunshan's vigorous movements, Yukinoshita Yukino's movements were simpler and easier, and took only half the time of Dong Yunshan, and she quickly caught up with Dong Yunshan's progress.

Then they both knelt down.

Dong Yunshan gathered his thoughts and said, "This movement can relax the spine, improve blood circulation in the spine, relieve back pain and pressure, and relieve pain... There are many benefits."

"Relieve menstrual cramps." Yukinoshita Yukino glanced at him. "It's not something that's hard to talk about."

"Looks like I don't need to explain anything knowledge-based." Dong Yunshan demonstrated directly with his body. "Cat pose is to tuck your chest in and arch your back, while cow pose is to lift your head, chest, and hips."

Yukinoshita Yukino glanced at Azuma Yunshan beside her, first arched her waist like a cat, then inhaled and lowered her waist, looking up.

He frowned.

"It's over." Dong Yunshan noticed the problem with Yukinoshita Yukino's movements, "Waist..."

Very thin.

Volume 4: Chapter 127: The Hands of the Master

Because of the movements of bending and sinking the waist, the hem of the T-shirt, which originally fit well, naturally shifted slightly.

The white waist looks even more slender against the curve formed by the naturally drooping hem of the T-shirt.

"If you bend your waist too much, the lumbar spine will be under too much pressure, which will cause back pain." Dong Yunshan calmed his mind, "Keep your abdomen contracted, don't relax completely."

Yukinoshita Yukino adjusted herself: "Like this?"

"It's over again." Dong Yunshan finally found the problem. "It's not about perfection. It should be appropriate."

Yukinoshita Yukino frowned slightly and adjusted herself bit by bit.

"The same goes for your neck. Don't lean back too much, look forward naturally," Dong Yunshan reminded. "Compression on the cervical spine can cause dizziness and headaches."

Yukinoshita Yukino followed Azuma Yunshan's instructions and made adjustments bit by bit: "How about this?"

"The movements are correct." Looking at the slightly trembling Yukinoshita, Azuma Yunshan sighed helplessly, "But your body is too stiff. Don't be so nervous."

Yukinoshita Yukino was completely frozen there, and every time she moved, she was like she was rusted, jerking.

She wanted to maintain the perfection of her movements so much and tried so hard to control every part of her body that she ended up doing it poorly.

"Don't shrug your shoulders, don't overextend your arms..." Dong Yunshan was worried about Yukinoshita Yukino.

Yukinoshita Yukino was able to correct the problems he pointed out immediately, but it also made her body even stiffer.

Azuma Yunshan could see that Yukinoshita Yukino was trying hard to avoid making mistakes. She noticed her arms, shoulders, waist... everything.

But this high-intensity control made her as clumsy as a robot.

"Relax, imagine your spine is a string of pearls, bend up, bend down, go slower, butt... don't move your hips back, activate your core..." Azuma Yunshan took a deep breath, stood up and walked to Yukinoshita Yukino, stretched out his hand and put it under her abdomen, touching her naturally draped T-shirt without touching her body, "I want to touch your belly."

Yukinoshita Yukino's cold gaze was fixed on Azuma Yunshan's head: "What did you say?"

"Your abdomen is contracting, right? Remember this feeling." Dong Yunshan's hand moved upwards. "I'm almost there."

Yukinoshita Yukino bit her lower lip lightly and arched her back like a cat to avoid the heat from Azuma Yunshan's palm.

Although there was no actual contact, Yukinoshita Yukino could clearly feel the approach of Azuma Yunshan's hand.

"Good...very good...slow...slow down..." Dong Yunshan just reminded her, but she found that Yukinoshita Yukino's movements had become stiff again, so she couldn't remind her like that. "I want to touch your lower back."

"Gu..." Yukinoshita Yukino made an angry sound, and then felt the heat approaching from her lower back.

Then the slender waist began to sink.

"It's time to touch the belly." Dong Yunshan reminded.

Yukinoshita Yukino immediately tightened her core.

"Hold on, up... down... OK, do it again." Dong Yunshan moved his hands slowly. "Very good. Do you remember this feeling?"

Remember... Yukinoshita Yukino pursed her lips, feeling this humiliation.

Between Azuma Yunshan's hands, Yukinoshita Yukino's slender waist slowly moved up and down.

After repeating this several times, Yukinoshita Yukino suddenly felt that her spine was stretching one section at a time, and the pressure accumulated during this period was released bit by bit.

Is this what it feels like?

Yukinoshita Yukino seemed to hear faint crisp sounds in various parts of her body. As her spine extended, the locks in various parts of her stiff body seemed to be opened, making the movements more smooth and natural.

This feeling really...

Seeing that Yukinoshita Yukino's movements were becoming more standard and without the initial stiffness, Dong Yunshan slowly withdrew his hand.

"Yes, that's it." Dong Yunshan encouraged, "There are three more—"

Before he finished speaking, Dong Yunshan felt the softness of his palm.

Before she had time to appreciate it, Dong Yunshan's other hand quickly drew a circle, moving from above Yukinoshita Yukino's lower back to below her neck, supporting the center of her collarbone.

Yukinoshita Yukino had already prepared herself to lie on the ground and closed her eyes resignedly.

But he could clearly feel the temperature of Dong Yunshan's palm.

Two strong hands held her up and slowly lowered her down.

"Sorry." Dong Yunshan pulled his hand away. "Seeing you were getting into it, I didn't say stop..."

This level of exercise is like playing for him.

But the difference in physical strength between the two was too great.

What was a very easy action for Azuma Yunshan was a rapid drain on Yukinoshita Yukino's physical strength.

The result was that when Azuma Yunshan still wanted to continue, Yukinoshita Yukino was already unable to do so.

"A few more moves?" Panting, Yukinoshita Yukino sat up, took deep breaths repeatedly, and slowly stood up.

"Do you want to continue?" Dong Yunshan was a little worried. "Don't force it, it's just..."

"I know my body better than you do." Yukinoshita Yukino said with a straight face, "How many more moves are there?"

"One more to go." Dong Yunshan pulled the chair over. "Hold the back of the chair and do squats, ten times."

This movement is not that difficult. Yukinoshita Yukino adjusted her breathing and quickly completed ten squats.

Letting out a long sigh, Yukinoshita Yukino held onto the chair and sat down: "Is... is it over?"

Dong Yunshan nodded: "The warm-up is over, we can start the formal training."

Yukinoshita Yukino: "...?"

"But you can't continue." Dong Yunshan's expression was serious. "For beginners, the key is to build exercise habits and physical adaptability, and avoid excessive intensity. You were already straining yourself just now, so you absolutely can't continue. Drink some water, rest, and then sit down with me for some relaxing exercises."

"......Yeah." Yukinoshita Yukino replied with pursed lips and immediately wanted to get up.

"Sit down." Dong Yunshan pushed her back. "I'll get you some water."

Yukinoshita Yukino murmured softly: "Don't..."

"You need to hydrate now."

"No water," Yukinoshita Yukino avoided Azuma Yunshan's gaze, "I want black tea."

"......Okay." Azuma Yunshan poured a cup of black tea for Yukinoshita Yukino, and then started his daily training.

After he finished his training, Yukinoshita Yukino also recovered some strength, and the two began to relax and stretch together.

So, when Yukinoshita Haruno opened the door and walked out of the bedroom, she saw two people kneeling side by side on the balcony.

"Ahhh~" Yukinoshita Haruno blinked, "Aren't we going to wait for both sets of parents to arrive?"
