My autobiography is definitely not a tragedy!-Chapter 904 - 536: The Spring Breeze of Reform

That evening, Lin Haitang had just come home from work and hadn’t even had a chance to sip some water.

She was pulled into the room by someone...

... 𝒻𝓇𝑒𝘦𝘸𝑒𝒷𝓃ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝒸ℴ𝘮

"What? You’ve known all along?" Yan Weiwei looked shocked.

"Yeah, Meng Lang had mentioned it to me earlier. With Chairman Gao’s knowledge and status, and her willingness to be Xiao Yu’s teacher, how could I possibly oppose it?"

"You... so I was the only one kept in the dark? Why didn’t you tell me something so important earlier?"

"Well, you never asked, and I thought she was busy and wouldn’t agree in the first place..."

Yan Weiwei instantly looked exasperated.

"Silly girl, are you stupid? How come you have no sense of crisis at all?

Don’t you think it’s strange that a busy woman would take time to teach Xiao Yu? Did you ever consider inviting trouble into your home?"

"Why would a big boss be considered trouble? What’s there to gain from us?"

"Can’t you see that there’s something unusual about the relationship between Gao Yuan and Meng Lang? Saying it’s a special consultant role, but have you ever seen a boss being that enthusiastic about a subordinate?"

"Chairman Gao did ask a lot about Meng Lang, but I assumed it was just valuing his talent?

Um... at least on a professional level, Meng Lang has indeed helped her a lot..."

"Appreciating talent is one thing, but discussing work at home? I think her intentions lie elsewhere!

She’s pretty and rich, even I’d be tempted. Aren’t you worried at all?"

"Uh... even if she has designs on Meng Lang, why should I worry?"

"You..."

Seeing the other party still trying to clear herself, Yan Weiwei was at a loss for words.

Do you really think I don’t know what’s going on between you two?

Lin Haitang looked at the fuming Yan Weiwei and suddenly asked tentatively.

"Weiwei, do you... still have feelings for Meng Lang?"

"What?"

Yan Weiwei was momentarily stunned and then realized her anxious display was indeed easy to misinterpret...

"Don’t... don’t talk nonsense! What feelings could I have, I’m worried for you!"

She glared at Lin Haitang with a small fierce look to cover her guilty conscience.

However, her blatantly obvious attempts at disguise were easy to see through by Lin Haitang.

Sighing inwardly.

Whether Gao Yuan has feelings for Meng Lang, she could tell. On the other hand, it seems Yan Weiwei is getting deeper in...

Recalling that she’d muddled through the marriage registration with Meng Lang, her guilt towards her intensified.

Several times she wanted to confess, yet the words remained stuck in her throat.

In fact, back when she met Meng Lang, Yan Weiwei had already shown her interest in him.

So in Lin Haitang’s heart, she always felt like the one who intruded on love...

Initially, she believed her moral compass was strong and nothing would happen between her and Meng Lang, doing her best to maintain distance.

But their destinies seemed intertwined, getting messier and entangled.

The more you suppress emotions, the more intense they become when they erupt.

It wasn’t until she snapped out of it that she realized she could no longer control her thoughts and feelings.

Even though she still had a seemingly indifferent attitude in their encounters, she would secretly smile under the covers at his messages late at night...

Amid sweetness and guilt, lies a complex psychological turmoil with no outlet.

She gritted her teeth.

"That infuriating, love-attracting jerk..."

...

"Huh? Where’s my breakfast?"

The next day, Meng Lang looked at his empty plate, filled with question marks and innocence in his eyes.

"Sorry, I made less today." Lin Haitang lowered her head, tidying up the dishes.

Meng Lang instinctively looked towards Yan Weiwei...

"Why are you looking at me? I only ate three dumplings today."

"Hmm?"

That seems like a normal amount...

A puzzled glance shifted back to Lin Haitang, only to receive a view of the back of her head.

Meng Lang: "..."

Ah! Weiwei must have complained about Gao Yuan last night.

But didn’t I already prepare you for that?

What kind of lawyer just listens to one side of the story?

"Ahem! It’s fine, I can eat out."

"Haha! Exactly, outside food is always tastier~"

Even after eating, Yan Weiwei didn’t miss an opportunity to jab, clearly implying something...

Meng Lang paused and turned back.

"I’ll go check the kitchen, see if there’s any leftovers, I’ll make do."

"Ha! That’s wanting both the bowl and the pot~"

His steps towards the kitchen stiffened again.

"Ahem! Actually... I’m not that hungry. Maybe... I’ll skip breakfast today?"

"Wow, getting tired of home food so quickly?"

"I..."

I’ll endure!

...

Community parking lot.

Lin Haitang had just gotten into her car, hadn’t even started it, when the passenger door suddenly opened...

"Bang!"

Seeing Meng Lang closing the door and fastening his seatbelt with a matter-of-fact face, Lin Haitang was momentarily stunned.

"What are you doing?"

"Can’t you tell? Hitching a ride!"

"Don’t you have your own car?"

"I haven’t eaten, I’m weak and have low blood sugar, it’s dangerous to drive myself!"

"You..." Lin Haitang sighed, starting the car. "Where to?"

"Same as you, clocking into work!"

"Work?" She cast him an odd glance.

"Does this word have anything to do with you? If you hadn’t said it, I’d have thought you’d been unemployed at home all along..."

Meng Lang helplessly spread his hands. "Though it’s true that lately I’ve had a persistent urge not to work, intermittently wanting to quit, often thinking about seeing the world, and occasionally contemplating life’s meaning...
