Shen Mingshan puffed on his cigarette in frustration.
He had started later than the others, and now his cigarette was almost finished, but the others were still going strong.
If there were no comparison, it wouldn't matter; he was an older man now and couldn't match his younger self—that was normal.
But the problem was, the contrast was too stark.
Although his new girlfriend Gao Haijiao hadn't said anything, he always felt that there was a hint of mockery on her face, and a bit of envy too.
Silence fell in the private room.
But the noises from next door were becoming increasingly grating...
Huh?
Why did that voice sound a bit familiar??
After finishing his cigarette, Shen Mingshan raised his eyebrows...
He leaned his body against the wall and listened intently, only to find the sounds grew more and more familiar!!
Wang Xueru???
It couldn't be her!!!
Shen Mingshan was dumbfounded. Could divorced couples really reunite in this way??
But damn it, you've only been divorced for a few days!
And you already have a new love??
Have you no shame!!
Shen Mingshan cursed inwardly, but after seeing Gao Haijiao sitting next to him, he immediately swallowed the words about having no shame.
This was a boomerang!
Hurt the enemy by a thousand, self-injure by twelve hundred!
At least she waited until after the divorce to find someone, while he didn't stay idle even during the marriage...
"Darling, there's no need to listen so carefully!"
Seeing Shen Mingshan pressing against the wall, Gao Haijiao couldn't help but feel amused.
A man of his age still had such intense curiosity, like a child.
Shen Mingshan couldn't quite explain himself and just kept a dark face, silent.
Finally, all was calm.
Gao Haijiao thought to herself: That must've been over half an hour!
In such a buffed environment, to last that long, pretty impressive.
She even wanted to give it a try...
Meanwhile, Shen Mingshan was prickling up his ears again, paying attention to the opening of the door. He planned to wait until the person left and then go out to check if it was indeed his ex-wife.
He didn't have to wait too long, about ten minutes later.
Sure enough, he heard the door opening and footsteps.
Shen Mingshan immediately pulled open the door of his private room and stepped out!
Wang Xueru, who had just replenished her body with rich protein, was in a good mood. Hearing the door of the adjacent room open, she glanced over subconsciously.
The next moment.
Their eyes met!
The atmosphere froze in an instant!!
"Damn, it really is you!"
"Wang Xueru, have you no shame!!" Searᴄh the ηovelFire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
Shen Mingshan was initially stunned but then couldn't help but burst into curse.
Wang Xueru hadn't expected to meet her ex-husband here and was momentarily at a loss for words...
But at this moment, Yang Hao took a step forward, standing between Wang Xueru and Shen Mingshan, and said with a smile, "Director Shen, right? We meet again."
Shen Mingshan hadn't recognized Yang Hao at first glance; in his memory, the guy was just a kangaroo deliveryman, forever associated with his delivery uniform.
But the man before him was dressed in a tailored suit, clearly an expensive one, and he was also carrying several luxury brand shopping bags. Even though these bags came in different sizes, the logos alone were proof that the contents weren't cheap.
He couldn't reconcile this image with the deliveryman in his mind.
However, since Yang Hao initiated the conversation, he naturally started to take a good look at the man who had just had an intimate exchange with his ex-wife.
And damn it, eavesdropping, he had heard many cheeky words his ex-wife had never said to him before...
How should he describe this feeling?
It was worse than discovering he had been cuckolded!
Finding out he'd been cheated on was like suddenly getting a vast grassland.
But now, he was witnessing the growing process of that grassland...
"It was you???"
After taking a closer look at Yang Hao, Shen Mingshan was shocked, his mouth agape and his gold-rimmed glasses on his nose bridge trembling.
He immediately recalled the scene at the Civil Affairs Bureau entrance.
Of course, at that time, the other could only spit on his face in a powerless rage...
And now?
You're intentionally seeking revenge, aren't you!!
Then he also remembered one morning when he went home to get clothes, he had spotted this man at the entrance of his residential area!!
Fucking hell!!
Could it be that it started back then?
Shen Mingshan felt as if the grass on his head was growing wildly...
"Darling, what's wrong?"
At that moment, Gao Haijiao, hearing the noise, came out of the private room.
Yang Hao glanced at her and couldn't help shaking his head. This woman was too ordinary looking, nowhere near Wang Xueru's level.
Wow, so the ex-husband really was starving, huh!
But then again, it seemed reasonable; normally, the quality of the women beside a man is directly proportional to the balance in his bank account.
The ex-husband had fallen on hard times, though still holding down a job, he had become one of those without property.
Barely counting as an "aging prospect"!
But such men were no longer within the considerations of quality women.
You're nearly forty, and you still expect me to struggle along with you?
Dream on!
Finding an older man is for reaping the rewards, okay!!
Yang Hao then thought about the fact that there also seemed to be two or three minutes of abnormality next door.
All right, the same task, you saved ten times the time!
This way, you'll have even more time to strive for a better life...
That's right!
A real man won't linger over the legs draped across his shoulders, what I need to shoulder is responsibility!
Superman for three minutes, let's encourage each other.
"When the fuck did you two get together??"
Shen Mingshan felt a strong urge to hit someone; he clenched his fists tightly. If Yang Hao hadn't been half a head taller than him and even more robust, he might have already taken a swing.
"Director Shen, the way you ask that is problematic!"
"So it's all right for officials to start fires, but not for the common people to light lamps?"
"You've already found someone new, isn't that a bit overbearing?!"
Yang Hao replied with a calm tone.
"I found someone after the divorce!"
Shen Mingshan clenched his teeth.
"We also got together after the divorce..."
Yang Hao said while pulling Wang Xueru into his arms.
"You..."
"You!!!"
Shen Mingshan's face twisted in fury, his teeth almost grinding to bits, yet he was left speechless.
Both parties divorced, naturally, it's each to their own path!
No one has a say over the other!
But inside, he felt extremely aggrieved!
"Boss, do we need to call the police?"
At this moment, two clerks, Zhao Lu and Mao Shuang, hearing the commotion, ran over.
"Boss???"
Shen Mingshan instinctively looked towards Yang Hao and Wang Xueru, unsure who the employees were referring to as the boss.
"No need."
Wang Xueru waved her hand and then calmly said to Shen Mingshan, "You take your own broad road, and I'll cross my log bridge."
"Not interfering with each other's lives is the best choice..."
"Boss?"
"You're the owner of this store??"
Shen Mingshan hadn't been listening to what Wang Xueru was saying; he was fixated on the employees' reference to Wang Xueru.
How did his ex-wife become the owner of a coffee shop so soon after their divorce!
Could it be she threw all her savings into this shop??
"Now that you know I'm the owner of this store, please don't come again in the future."
"Lu Lu, please show the guest out!"
Wang Xueru finished speaking and then pulled Yang Hao downstairs, not giving any further attention to her ex-husband.
Meanwhile, Shen Mingshan stood frozen in place for quite some time, unable to snap out of it...
"Darling, was that your ex-wife?"
At this point, Gao Haijiao asked curiously.
In her mind, she thought it incredible that someone would divorce such a beautiful wife.
Or was it him who got dumped?
Mmm, it must have been him getting dumped.
After all, it's a choice between three minutes and thirty minutes.
And that guy was pretty handsome too, the tall and powerful type.
Given the choice between these two men, she would also choose Yang Hao without hesitation!
Not because thirty minutes are more charming, but mainly because she likes tall guys...
Shen Mingshan didn't feel like talking at all now; he silently went downstairs. After a quick glance around the first floor, he saw no sign of Wang Xueru.
However, Yang Hao was standing at the entrance holding a bunch of luxury brand shopping bags.
MD, after divorcing me, you start funding a kept man, huh?!
Shen Mingshan didn't believe that Yang Hao, a delivery man, had the financial power to afford these luxury items.
However, it reminded him of the encounter with Yang Hao at Starlight City, where Yang Hao had two young, beautiful girls with him.
Could this guy specialize in being a gigolo?
Shen Mingshan also thought about his experience upstairs.
Dammit, it seemed he indeed had the capital to be a gigolo...
Shen Mingshan cursed inwardly and went outside the shop to taunt, "What kind of man spends a woman's money?!"
"Are you talking about me?"
Yang Hao smiled and looked at his ex-brother-in-law with a face turning iron blue.
"Nonsense!"
"Who else but you!"
"Getting up there in years, still acting like a gigolo, huh!"
Shen Mingshan was cursing up a storm.
Yang Hao just shrugged, smiling: "Actually, I think that being able to live off a woman also requires ability."
"Some people might want to, but they just don't have what it takes..."
"Right, beautiful?"
Yang Hao said, even winking at Gao Haijiao.
Ah?
Gao Haijiao was initially stunned, then quickly grasped the implication in Yang Hao's words, and she subconsciously nodded.
Rich women prefer someone fit, with good stamina...

People like Shen Mingshan don't cut it at all, the wealthy ladies are not interested!
"You son of a..."
Shen Mingshan was fuming, about to hurl insults.
But Yang Hao didn't indulge him, instead, he used a newly acquired skill, "Shadowless Finger," on Shen Mingshan's pressure point.
His entire arm instantly went numb, as if countless ants were crawling over it.
Damn!
Shen Mingshan instinctively reached to rub his arm, making frustrated noises...
"We all have IDs."
"Let's not always bring family into it..."
Yang Hao glanced at his ex-brother-in-law in pain and suddenly tasted the joy of being a smirking war god.
MD!
The Dragon King returns!
The War God is back!
All of you, gone!!
However, this book exists in a civilized society.
Believe in the country, believe in the party.
Fighting leads to no good outcome.
Besides, Yang Hao and the former brother-in-law were still of the same profession.
A warning shot sufficed...
"Director Shen, watch your mouth in the future."
"Remember, trouble comes from the tongue!"
Yang Hao kindly reminded him, then, under the shocked gazes of Shen Mingshan and Gao Haijiao, he opened the door to the Panamera...
