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

144: Chapter 144 Shen Lang AwakensShen Lang was terrified of missing his ex-wife coming out, missing this perfect opportunity to reconcile.

So, he busied himself with his work absent-mindedly, occasionally ”accidentally” glancing up at the CEO’s office.

The more one anticipates something, the more urgent it feels; time seemed to slow down, and Shen Lang was so anxious he couldn’t stop bouncing his leg.

”When will she come out? CEO Zhao only talks to others for a little while, so why does it seem like they’re chatting and laughing?”

”Hmm? Why did they pull the blinds?”

”It’s just reporting work, why pull the blinds!”

A surge of wicked fire rushed up from the deep, hidden parts of his heart, burning Shen Lang until he felt like he was incinerating from the inside out.

”What are they doing!”

But what rose within Shen Lang was not just anger, but also a hint of fear.

He was afraid of his own abnormal feelings.

When he had just divorced, he was utterly devastated; he could only force himself to bury his head in work to temporarily forget the pain.

When the pressure was too great, he would go to the smoking area and fiercely smoke a few cigarettes.

Once, when he returned to his desk smelling of smoke, he discovered an anonymous courier package.

After opening it, there was only a USB drive inside.

He certainly wouldn’t use something of unknown origin casually.

However, the company wasn’t a place just anyone could enter; this must have been placed on his desk by someone inside.

”Who exactly is it, and what do they want to convey?”

Driven by curiosity, he went to an internet cafe after work that night where he could plug in the USB drive, and opened it.

Inside was a high-definition video, but the content made him furious the moment he saw it; he almost smashed the internet cafe’s monitor!

Yet, an indescribable, eerie feeling welled up from the bottom of his heart.

He still wanted to keep watching.

As if possessed, he sat back down, breathing heavily, and stared with bloodshot eyes as he continued to watch.

If there had been surveillance, one would have seen that in this small booth, a strange guest seemed uncomfortable in their lower body and reached out to undo something at their waist.

A moment later, he seemed physically uncomfortable, his whole body shaking, and eventually, he seemed to spill his drink, hurriedly pulling out tissues to wipe his clothes.

His insights into the Great Dao of the universe helped Shen Lang regain all his reason.

He couldn’t believe that he had watched this long video without missing a single second, and he had shivered seven times in total.

This was a peak he had never reached in his life.

He was somewhat afraid of that version of himself.

After hesitating three or four times, he ultimately didn’t delete the video, but instead took the USB drive home and hid it in the deepest part under his mattress.

Whenever the night was quiet, he had an urge to take the USB drive out and watch it again.

But he bitterly restrained himself.

Until today, when that demonic feeling rushed up again.

”She’s been inside for nearly an hour, and the blinds have been drawn for an hour!”

”What kind of work report takes this long!!”

Because he had been staring unblinkingly, Shen Lang suddenly caught the blinds trembling slightly.

He focused even more attention on staring at the glass.

Although he couldn’t see anything substantial, his mind had already combined the content from that little USB drive to form rich associations.

”That bitch!”

”Do you hate me that much!”

”To get revenge on me, you went and seduced a stranger you just met, doing such shameless things!”

Shen Lang cursed in his heart, but his eyes couldn’t bear to leave that glass window for even a moment.

His heart was incredibly pained, yet he was also incredibly excited and delighted; he seemed to have awakened some incredible attribute.

[ You interacted with Bai Feng and luckily obtained a multiplier silver card ]

The door to the CEO’s office finally opened.

Shen Lang immediately looked at his ex-wife as she walked out.

”She was wearing pantyhose when she went in! Why are her legs bare now!”

All the flames roared to life, and he looked at the man leaning against his ex-wife.

Actually, it had ended long ago; Bai Feng had just rested in the office for a while, which is why it dragged on so long.

It wasn’t that Zhao Xiaoshuai couldn’t keep going, but rather that Bai Feng was a bit overwhelmed.

She had just been fed yesterday, and today she hadn’t quite recovered yet, only to end up eating another big meal.

She was stuffed, truly stuffed.

Even after resting for a while, she still had to lean on Zhao Xiaoshuai to leave, otherwise, her legs would shake.

Zhao Xiaoshuai also looked at Shen Lang at this moment; he wanted to see what the only audience member thought of the show.

Shen Lang’s expression was initially one of anger, the kind where his features were twisted, which satisfied him greatly.

But in an instant, it changed into a strange kind of pleasure; Zhao Xiaoshuai recognized this expression, as Ling Rui would sometimes reveal a similar look.

But this expression only lasted for a moment, and eventually turned into sycophancy. Shen Lang greeted him and then lowered his head, continuing to appear focused on his work.

A green-haired turtle refers to the symbiotic phenomenon between green algae and a turtle; it can act as a form of camouflage, allowing it to hide itself better in the natural environment.

Zhao Xiaoshuai was also a bit speechless, ”Ah, this... should this be considered punishing him, or rewarding him?”

Ignoring Shen Lang, he put his arm around Bai Feng and went downstairs; his work as CEO for the day was finished as of now.

Regarding the two who left together, the other employees in the company kept their eyes on their noses and their hearts on their souls, not daring to look too much.

Hiring such a beautiful female secretary—who doesn’t know what she’s actually there for?

”Go home and lie down for a while first. When you’ve rested, remember to call the logistics department and have the glass in my office changed to one-way.”

Bai Feng rolled her eyes at him, clearly knowing what kind of scheme he was cooking up.

However, thinking about what might happen later, her heart felt hot again.

This was just too exciting.

Her life before had been conventional, and she was a standard good girl.

Going to school normally, dating normally, never frequenting bars or nightclubs, then getting married, raising children, and being a stay-at-home wife with nothing to do.

But now she realized that there seemed to be countless pleasures in life that she had missed, and this kind of exciting life seemed quite good too.

Zhao Xiaoshuai had reignited her passion, making her feel as if she had come alive again.

”As you command, my CEO Zhao~”

While they were resting just now, it wasn’t as if they hadn’t done anything serious.

Zhao Xiaoshuai had assigned many tasks to Bai Feng; he basically wouldn’t come to the company often in the future, and Bai Feng would need to keep an eye on everything in the company for him.

Bai Feng’s basic aptitude was very high, but it had been covered up by her overly privileged background where she didn’t need to work, as well as by the profession of being a housewife, leaving her no room to unleash it.

She was more than qualified to be a secretary.

It was just that this seemed to go against Bai Feng’s original intention of just wanting to come out and do an idle job.

”You tricked me into coming out by saying it was an idle job, and then dumped such a big mess on me; how are you going to compensate me?”

”What, you can still go?”

”You! Why do you only think about that? It’s definitely not happening today; let me recover for a week—no, let me recover for three days.”

”Idleness will make a person dull. When we first met, you looked so silly and cute. Your work is just supervision and communication; it won’t be too tiring.”

”Yes, yes, yes, our CEO Zhao is doing it all for my own good.”

”What, are you not satisfied today?”

”Satisfied, it’s about to overflow; you’ve never let me down. And thinking that he was right outside, I felt extra energetic!”

”When we walked out, seeing his expression that looked like he wanted to eat someone—you don’t know how happy I was. It’s a pity it only appeared for a second before he hid it away.”

The more one cares, the more it shows that they haven’t let go; whether it’s love or hate, it’s the same.

However, his relationship with Bai Feng was only physical, and it was only by knowing each other inside and out multiple times that he had just pushed the favorability rating to 299 (Affection).

Therefore, he wouldn’t interfere too much in her personal matters.

Sending Bai Feng home, he began the second date on his schedule.

Today’s tasks were still heavy, both for him and for his little brother.
