“The highest-end car from Mercedes-Benz; I really like it.”
“I’ve been following it for a while,” Josie said with a smile, trying to play it cool.
Layla, on the other hand, felt a bit speechless because she had seen her best friend’s maneuver. She clearly got the information from the group, but now it had turned into something she had been following all along.
“Yeah, the performance of this car is top-notch!”
In fact, Jacob didn’t know much about the Mercedes-Benz GLS-Class. He had only seen some off-road and water-wading tests. This car has an emergency floating mode, which allows it to drive on water for about thirty minutes if it accidentally falls in.
Regardless of whether this feature is useful, it certainly has a high status. If this technology were given to BMW, they would definitely dare to sell the car for five million.
Additionally, this car has a U-turn mode, which, if installed in a joint venture luxury brand, would likely require an annual service fee of 19,999 to activate the feature. Without payment, the feature wouldn’t be usable.
After all, BMW charges 4,998 a year for a rear-wheel steering feature, and this U-turn mode is much more impressive!
A few minutes later, Jacob drove down to the underground parking lot of Starlight City.
“Mr. Jacob, what do you want to eat? I’ll treat you,” Josie asked while waiting for the elevator.
“Best Diet sounds good.”
“But I’m on a fat-reducing diet, so I’ll just have some vegetables.”
Jacob was genuinely hungry at this point, having done heavy physical work at noon.
“Mr. Jacob, you can have some beef today too,” Layla chimed in. The fat-reducing meal she prepared for Jacob was beef and vegetable salad, but the portion wasn’t large, so having a bit more was fine. After all, beef is a high-quality protein with low fat content, suitable for a fat-reducing diet.
“Mm.” Jacob nodded, instinctively swallowing. Controlling his diet to lose weight was truly painful, but losing a pound was worth a hundred thousand. He had to persevere, even if it meant eating grass every day! Moreover, after reaching the system’s set goal, the main task progress would increase by 1%. So far, among the tasks he had received, only the body management task could increase the main task progress, indicating that this task was considered relatively high-level by the system.
“How about going to 5-Stars?”
Josie asked, as there happened to be a 5-Stars in Starlight City.
“Sure.”
Jacob nodded. Once upon a time, turning a Best Diet restaurant into a scale like 5-Stars was his dream.
Unfortunately, the model of 5-Stars seems simple, but it’s actually very hard to replicate; otherwise, imitators wouldn’t have failed one after another.
Since it was a weekday, the occupancy rate at 5-Stars wasn’t very high, only about forty percent.
The waiter seated the three of them at a four-person table by the window.
Josie handed the iPad for ordering to Jacob: “Mr. Jacob, you order.”
“One portion of yam, one portion of black fungus, and one portion of loach.”
“Layla, is it okay if I eat loach?”
Having consumed quite a bit at noon, Jacob still wanted to replenish himself.
“No problem, loach is also high in protein and low in fat,” Layla confirmed.
Josie silently glanced at Jacob; all three of these foods had kidney-boosting effects.
He wouldn’t be that weak, would he?
Forget it, considering the Mercedes-Benz GLS-Class, let him be a little weak; as long as he doesn’t completely lose function, it’s fine.
Layla and Josie are both women who strictly manage their figures, so neither of them eats much, and they don’t order too many dishes.
Soon, the food was served, and the three of them chatted while eating. Although Jacob didn’t eat anything high in calories, the experience of Best Diet still satisfied his cravings mentally.
“Layla?”
“It’s really you, Layla! What a coincidence!”
A man holding a plate of dipping sauce suddenly stopped by their table, his face filled with surprise as he called out Layla’s name.
From his voice, it was clear that this surprise was genuine.
Jacob instinctively glanced at the man. He was in his late twenties, quite tall, probably around 180 cm, with an above-average appearance, dressed in a Nike tracksuit, looking quite energetic.
“Senior Ryan, what a coincidence.”
Layla greeted him. This man was Ryan Mont, a senior who was three years her elder.
They had both worked as part-time trainers at the same gym, and he had pursued her for a while, but Ryan was not her type.
“Josie is here too.”
Ryan recognized Josie as well. When he was pursuing Layla, he had also tried to win over her friend, but in the end, he still couldn’t win over the beauty.
Josie nodded slightly, acknowledging him.
“And who is this?”
