Anastasia did not know what was wrong with her. Over the years, she had sought help from
mainstream specialists and healers of alternative medicine. She even tried going to the gym. However,
nothing could solve her problem.
The truth was, besides being obese, she was weak and would easily pass out.
According to alternative medicine practitioners, she lacked vitality, while the specialists claimed she
was suffering from hormonal imbalances. There were several diagnoses and proposed treatments, but
none worked.
Her father had not restricted what she ate at first, but seeing her getting in worse shape over the last
two years, he anxiously decided to treat her the way he ran his department and started to enforce a
strict diet plan for her.
He thought soldiers were trained by controlling their diet and making them exercise. Although
Anastasia could not undergo physical training due to her health problem, he could control what she ate,
thinking she would surely slim down by eating little.
It was effective for the first few days, and Anastasia lost nearly 11 pounds in half a month. However, the
progress stopped, and she even started to gain weight instead.
Cameron was both upset and anxious. He concluded that his daughter had been eating behind his
back or the diet plan was not strict enough. He even thought she should eat even less.
For the past two years, Anastasia grew increasingly unhappy with her life. If she had not reserved that
dress for her birthday and subsequently met Lily, she would remain stuck in her own world.
That blueberry mousse Lily shared with her was the highlight of her day. Therefore, Anastasia had an
indescribable sense of trust toward Lily, who made her feel calm and wish she could be her savior.
After roughly hearing about Anastasia’s story, Lily thought it was almost what she had assumed.
However, she could not help but think that such severe restrictions would only make one crave food
more because anything that defied human nature would not last long.
"Lily..." Anastasia said, "I’m treating you as a friend since I have none. I feel connected to you, and your
words always struck a chord with me. You have never looked down on me or curried favor with me.
Furthermore, I think what you said made a lot of sense. Will you help me?"
Her pleading eyes were full of helplessness.
Lily held Anastasia’s hand back and felt she could not hold it entirely.
However, Anastasia had good skin, and her hand was soft.
Anastasia subconsciously tried to withdraw her hand, but Lily held on to it.
"Let me feel your wrist if you like me to help you." Lily did not wish to say she wanted to take
Anastasia’s pulse and simply said so.
After some hesitation, Anastasia offered her hand and turned it over to reveal the golden underside of
her wrist. Lily placed her three fingers on the thick wrist and meticulously felt about to find the right
spot.
Due to the thickness of Anastasia's fatty layer, an inexperienced practitioner of alternative medicine
might not be able to find her pulse.
Concentrating, Lily found the spot of Anastasia’s pulse and quietly held her fingers there for a while.
Anastasia noticed Lily’s severe expression and dared not ask her anything despite being curious—
instead, she let Lily hold her wrist. When Lily slightly loosened her grasp, Anastasia hurriedly asked,
"Were you taking my pulse?"
Lily looked at her silently.
"I met some alternative medicine practitioners before, and that was how they checked my pulse.
However, they said I..." Anastasia paused and blushed a little. "They said I was too fat, and it was
difficult to find my pulse. So, were you taking my pulse? Did you manage to find it?"
"Don’t be nervous. I’m not a doctor, and you’re not my patient. I just think you have an unhealthy
lifestyle, and I want to help you make some adjustments."
