After the Breakup, He Obtained the Krypton Gold Return Shenhao System

133: Chapter 133 For Some, the Sky Has CollapsedThe vast majority of girls are ”close-your-eyes” types, but Jia Youran was different; she liked to keep her eyes open.

Being stared at from such close range by a pair of large, inquisitive eyes made Zhao Xiaoshuai feel a little awkward, and his movements unconsciously became much gentler.

Still, those eyes were truly beautiful.

Just a bit too calm.

Cheat Dad’s data was never false; with [Experience: 10], Jia Youran truly had no romantic experience whatsoever.

She seemed somewhat clumsy, knowing only how to passively reciprocate, but with two people, it was enough as long as one of them took the initiative.

Jia Youran was thinking.

Having categorized this novel experience as a subject of research, she began to earnestly analyze and process it.

This act involved exchanging bacteria and transferring various microbiomes in a short time, though exposure to different microorganisms would also enhance immunity to a certain extent.

It also triggered the body to release hormones like oxytocin, endorphins, and dopamine, which indeed made her feel some pleasure.

Yet other than that, there didn’t seem to be anything special about it.

Sensing the ”Is that all?” in Jia Youran’s eyes, how could Zhao Xiaoshuai possibly endure it?

Tilting his head further to deepen the kiss, his hands, which had been resting quietly on her waist, began to move.

However, Jia Youran did not seem to be the type with a sensitive constitution.

In places like her ribs, underarms, waist, and behind her ears, she showed no reaction under his gentle caresses.

’Could she be frigid?’

Undeterred, Zhao Xiaoshuai continued his exploration.

But after touching everywhere he could ostensibly reach without finding her weak spot, he felt slightly discouraged.

However, her health rating was an eight; logically, she shouldn’t have any hidden illnesses or natural defects.

He would just have to explore some more private areas when there was an opportunity in the future.

Even when they separated, Jia Youran maintained her original posture, her gaze barely having changed.

It was as if nothing had happened, save for the thin thread of saliva stretching between them.

[Jia Youran Favorability + 1]

[Jia Youran’s Favorability/Relationship Value has exceeded 200, reaching ”Favorable.” You may now claim the current stage Favorability Chest.]

”So, that counts as the kiss being finished?”

”Uh, I suppose so. How was it? Did you feel anything special?”

”Hmm... it was indeed a very novel experience. It felt slightly pleasant; we can experience it often in the future.”

Truly a very unique answer.

”It’s about time for dinner. Shall I treat you to a meal to wrap up our first date today?”

”You paid during our blind date, so it’s only right that I treat you for this one.”

Zhao Xiaoshuai didn’t insist further.

He had learned a lot about Jia Youran’s situation and knew that although she invested the vast majority of her savings into her scientific research career, her own salary was very high, sufficient to maintain a high quality of life.

With an annual income of over a million, she was a wealthy woman by general standards.

It was another Western restaurant, but the overall style looked much more upscale than the one he had casually found in the afternoon.

”Because I often have to host foreign VIPs, I eat Western food quite a bit. This place has pretty good taste.”

”Then I’ll have to give it a try.”

...

...

Chu Ziqing had been doing quite well lately.

Ever since leaving Shen Lang, she had immediately been approached by another successful man.

This greatly affirmed her self-perception—a high-quality human female.

After a few days of back-and-forth, upon learning she was single, the man soon began pursuing her.

In just a short time, he not only gave her a car to drive but also showered her with various gifts like handbags, cosmetics, and clothing, allowing Chu Ziqing to rediscover that feeling of being above everyone else.

However, her thinking had evolved once again.

In the past, she had been single-mindedly focused on marrying Shen Lang to become a wealthy housewife.

But now, she had ”woken up”; the risk of hanging herself from a single tree was simply too great.

Even the wealthy could go bankrupt or hit rock bottom in life; she wasn’t about to marry someone just to suffer.

Unless it was a top-tier wealthy family, she wouldn’t be talking about marriage in the short term.

She hadn’t even officially established a relationship with that man yet; she was just keeping him on the hook with ambiguity.

The way things were now, she didn’t need to do anything; she just had to keep up her airs, and yet she still received a constant stream of gifts. It was simply too satisfying.

In short, she had gradually evolved from a gold-digger into a manipulative social climber.

Feeling smug and satisfied, she was elegantly cutting a steak, occasionally responding to the man opposite her who thought he was being witty.

Her posture was standard, textbook-perfect.

As the frequency of her visits to high-end venues increased, Chu Ziqing had privately and diligently studied various etiquette and postures, working harder at it than she had for her graduate school entrance exams.

Now, she was more adept with a knife and fork than with chopsticks.

However, this good mood lasted only until her peripheral vision swept across a table of a man and a woman in the distance.

She looked again, puzzled.

Although Zhao Xiaoshuai had changed a lot recently, Chu Ziqing had, after all, come with him from their student days, so she could completely recognize him even now.

’Why do I keep running into this persistent ghost!’

’And how come the woman beside him has changed again? And she’s just as beautiful!’

’Hasn’t the money he borrowed come due yet? How can he afford to squander it in a restaurant like this?’

Sensing that the beautiful woman before him was distracted, the man asked with concern: ”Ziqing, what’s wrong? Are you feeling unwell?”

”Ah, it’s nothing. I thought I saw an acquaintance just now, but I must have been mistaken. Where were we?”

Unaware that his ex-girlfriend was dining in the same restaurant, his energy was entirely focused on the beauty before him.

Of course, he also devoted some of it to the delicious food on his plate.

”The steak here is indeed quite good. I just ate at a no-name shop at noon, and theirs was far worse. As expected, you get what you pay for.”

”I’m glad it suits your taste. Wait for me a moment, don’t pay the bill on your own; I’m going to the restroom.”

After using the restroom, Jia Youran was about to wash her hands when she was stunned by a remark from a beautiful woman touching up her makeup at the sink.

”I don’t know how Zhao Xiaoshuai tricked you, but he’s just a down-and-out middle-aged man who just lost his job. He’s probably carrying hundreds of thousands in loans. You’d better keep your eyes open, miss, and be careful.”

Jia Youran was silent for a moment, barely managing to piece the situation together, before she calmly opened her mouth to say: ”Do you need me to recommend a famous neurologist to you?”

”You!? Hmph, ungrateful! You, one after another, have all been deceived by his sweet talk! You don’t know a good heart when you see one; you’ll regret it when you suffer the consequences!”

Jia Youran just continued with a serious expression, ”I genuinely feel that you should get a check-up for this. The person you are slandering is a billionaire with a net worth of at least over a billion. He just invested seven million into my project today, and he has personally injected seventy million into the fund under his name.”

”Hahahaha...” Chu Ziqing laughed until her stomach hurt. ”You can actually believe such an exaggerated lie? I think it’s you who needs to get your brain checked.”

Jia Youran remained with that poker face:

”I don’t know how to put this to you. Hmm, do you not read the news at all?”

”The Chuncheng Evening News dedicated an entire page to reporting his deeds. You can search using local news media; there should be reports online as well.”

”The headline is ’Entrepreneur surnamed Zhao splurges seventy million, building a ray of hope for common people who cannot afford medical treatment!’”

Chu Ziqing gradually stopped laughing.

For one, the woman opposite her had been emotionally stable and articulate the entire time; she didn’t seem like she was spouting nonsense.

Secondly, she seemed to have glanced at this news item, but she hadn’t paid attention at the time and had just swiped past it.

The money wasn’t going to her, so why should she care?

She pulled out her phone, searched casually, and found that news report.

Zhao Xiaoshuai’s photo was prominently displayed on it.

She felt as if the world had collapsed.
