155: Chapter 155 Hire two secretaries, both very capable

In the early morning, Zhao Xiaoshuai finished his Meditation and opened his eyes.

"As expected, with my current understanding of Meditation, I'm still a hundred thousand miles away from the next stage."

Now, every hour he spends in Meditation can recover about three hours of lost sleep.

Last night and a few times before, he had only slept for about three hours. As a result, even after one Meditation session, his spirit hadn't fully recovered to its peak state.

Doing this for a day or two is fine, but in the long run, it's bound to be harmful to the body.

Therefore, he might need to perform two long Meditation sessions a day to fully recover his body. This feels a bit like putting the cart before the horse, as his time during the day is more precious.

An inch of time is an inch of essence.

Just as his Kidney Bro's attributes had recently dropped a bit, the body's various functions aren't something one can just set and forget after strengthening; they also need to be accompanied by a reasonable lifestyle.

However, the issue with Kidney Bro was an exception and couldn't be compromised on, but other lifestyle habits should be changed whenever possible.

"I'll try signing up for a Meditation class today, and I also need to find someone to teach martial arts and Sanda. The mission over there has reached a bottleneck."

Girlfriend Number One was still sound asleep, and his Sister-in-law—who knows if she stayed awake all night because he scared her—didn't respond when he knocked on her door.

He turned the doorknob; it was still locked.

After leaving some breakfast for them, he drove to Lingyue Design.

A preliminary reorganization took place yesterday with many job transfers. Since there were quite a few employees he had marked for optimization, the Human Resources Department had also launched a large-scale social recruitment drive.

It seemed there were quite a few people looking for jobs now; many were already waiting downstairs early this morning, likely all here for interviews.

However, it was worth noting that Zhao Xiaoshuai spotted a familiar figure in the crowd.

Gao Wenqiang, the childhood friend of his little girlfriend whom he had happened to meet while visiting Meng Yawen's home, was a self-confident top student.

It seemed his job search wasn't going well. Not only had he not found a job yet, but Lingyue Design wasn't even a particularly large company, and it didn't quite match his major.

He looked preoccupied and didn't notice his "former rival" walking past.

"When this Gao Wenqiang is being interviewed, call me. I want to sit in."

"Yes, President Zhao."

After finishing his instructions to the Human Resources Department, he walked toward his office. Since it was his company, he wanted to take a preliminary look at the results of yesterday's reorganization today.

Although positions had been significantly adjusted based on everyone's specialties, the actual effectiveness would depend on how well they adapted.

From a distance, he saw that the office window had been turned into a mirror. It seemed the Logistics Department moved quite fast when it came to orders from the big boss.

However, as long as one looked from the inside, it should provide an unobstructed view of the entire office.

When he pushed the door open and entered, Bai Feng was surprisingly already there, staring blankly at a spot outside the window.

The place she was staring at was where Shen Lang, who had also arrived early at the company, was sitting.

From time to time, Shen Lang would look up toward the president's office. Although he couldn't see anything, his gaze happened to intersect perfectly with Bai Feng's.

Startled by him opening the door, Bai Feng snapped back to her senses. "Darling, you're here? I thought you just bought the company for fun and would definitely be an absentee boss."

After all, Bai Feng's father was a major shareholder of Lingyue Design, so she had already found out the inside story behind such a significant change in ownership.

According to the information she gathered, it was said that the president of Ling Shi was testing his son-in-law.

This rumor wasn't groundless, because according to internal information from the Human Resources Department, Ling Shi's little princess, Ling Rui, had already been transferred here to serve as the president's secretary.

Besides the group president, who else could possibly be qualified to have Ling Shi's little princess follow them around as a little secretary?

Bai Feng was also full of curiosity about this mysterious "delivery boy," but she couldn't find any more information.

"What, does my arrival interfere with you and your ex-husband staring at each other from a distance?"

Bai Feng gave him a flirtatious wink. "Oh my, look who's jealous. He can't even see me; I was just looking at him and remembering our school days. That was the happiest time of my life."

Zhao Xiaoshuai and Bai Feng were just using each other for what they needed. He wasn't actually jealous; he was just testing her and adding a bit of playful banter.

Bai Feng's favorability was still stuck at 299, unable to break through, so there were no real feelings between the two.

However, with the addition of Shen Lang into the mix, everything became much more interesting.

Perhaps Zhao Xiaoshuai was just a tool for Bai Feng to get revenge on her ex-husband, a part of some kind of play, but Zhao Xiaoshuai didn't care much about that.

What his little brother got to taste was real, after all.

Bai Feng's status among his women was even lower than that of a little sub. Since they were all just playing around, they might as well only talk about things that made them happy.

"When I came in, he even glanced at me. They say the whole day's work depends on a good start in the morning, so why don't we have some 'morning exercise'?"

Bai Feng was very tempted. "Then why don't we spice things up? Otherwise, he'll just be staring stupidly outside without knowing what's happening at all."

She turned on her phone's video recording and aimed it at Shen Lang's position outside the window.

Just one angle and an audio track sent to him later would be worth more than a thousand words.

...

...

Shen Lang had been in a very excited state lately, so he arrived at his workstation early in the morning, aimlessly operating his computer.

When he saw his ex-wife walking toward the president's office, he hesitated and ultimately didn't have the courage to step forward and stop her.

After sitting for an unknown amount of time, he looked up just as Zhao Xiaoshuai walked into the president's office.

This time, he even forgot to greet this "great benefactor" who had promoted him, only staring blankly as the door closed.

Thinking about what might be happening in the office, a fire seemed to ignite within him, scorching his heart—not with pain, but with a much more bizarre sensation.

'They even changed it to one-way glass!'

When the technician came to change the window glass yesterday, he had gone up to take a look, so he knew exactly what it all meant.

After going home yesterday, he had even dug out the USB drive hidden under his bed and watched it over and over again.

It wasn't until a whole pack of tissues was used up that he snapped out of it.

He knew he wasn't being normal, but he just couldn't suppress that strange feeling.

It was as if he had been possessed.

Ever since Zhao Xiaoshuai entered the office, he had been staring wide-eyed at that mirror, without even blinking.

Even though he could only see his own red-eyed reflection in it.

His mind wandered into wild fantasies, and soon his breathing became as heavy as a bull's.

Ling Rui looked at Shen Lang standing in front of the office door and instinctively moved a bit further away.

'This person is a bit abnormal.'

Although she had applied to transfer here as the president's secretary according to her master's arrangements, Zhao Xiaoshuai had only sent her an order, and she hadn't delved into the reasons.

In short, she just had to follow her master's orders.

Therefore, she didn't know who the president here was. Naturally, she wasn't punctual on her first day, arriving at the company a full hour late.

She pushed the door, but it wouldn't open; she turned the handle a few times, but it was locked.

Ling Rui frowned, and her "young miss" temper flared up instantly as she pounded on the door several times.

After a moment, the door opened a crack, and she was pulled inside.

Just as she was about to cry out, she covered her own mouth.

The situation inside the door startled her at first, making her think she had arrived at the filming set of some "educational film," but looking up at the man holding her in his arms, it was none other than her master.

Ling Rui instantly became incredibly well-behaved: "I'm sorry, I'm late."

"It's okay. Take them off first."
