Financial freedom starts with cracked apps.

"So, Shen, how do you handle romantic relationships?"

After chatting with Lin Shen for a while, Ma Zifan completely regarded him as one of his own, and even the way he addressed him changed from his rather distant name to his given name.

He not only admired Lin Shen's business acumen, but also his ability to handle emotional issues effectively.

At least in Ma Zifan's opinion, he is a role model for all men when it comes to enabling two women to get along harmoniously.

Therefore, Ma Zifan humbly asked Lin Shen for advice on "the art of controlling women," but Lin Shen just laughed it off.

"There's no secret to it. As long as you have the ability, women will naturally flock to you."

Am I incapable?

This is not arrogance; given Ma Zifan's family background, they can indeed be considered part of the relatively wealthy upper class.

“My family’s assets are worth A9, my business partners are all over the world, and I’m not bad-looking myself. As a result, I have many girls who just play around with me, but very few who I develop feelings for.”

"You mean Zhao Jianing?"

Lin Shen raised an eyebrow and instantly understood Ma Zifan's distressed expression. He then smiled and asked.

"You don't actually want to get back together with her, do you?"

"Well, I do have this idea of ​​going back to China."

Ma Zifan sighed softly.

“I’ve known Jia Ning for almost ten years, and we dated for three of those years. After we broke up, I felt more and more upset, so I applied to my father to return to China to handle the company’s domestic business, hoping to see if there was any chance of getting back together with Jia Ning.”

Ma Zifan secretly glanced at Zhao Jianing, who was chatting happily with Zheng Yanfei not far away, and couldn't help but complain.

"As a result, she kept me hanging on, neither rejecting nor accepting. Damn it! I never thought I'd be someone's backup plan! And willingly at that!"

"This is ridiculous. What kind of woman can't I find? Why am I so hung up on her? I think I'm being unreasonable, but I have to admit I've fallen for Jia Ning. Sigh."

"Take it slow, I don't have any good solutions either."

Lin Shen patted Ma Zifan on the shoulder and chuckled.

"However, I can teach you a trick."

"any solution?"

Seeing a glint of light flash in Ma Zifan's eyes, Lin Shen chuckled.

"A good woman is afraid of a persistent suitor."

"You want me to be your lapdog?"

Ma Zifan pointed to his own nose, utterly speechless.

"I'm worth tens of millions, my family's assets are over 100 million, and I'm pretty handsome. Although I'm not particularly tall, I'm at least passable."

"What woman couldn't I find? Why would I need to be someone's lapdog? I'm not good at that!"

"What can we do then?"

Lin Shen shrugged, indicating that there was nothing he could do.

"If you don't truly like someone, why would you want to be a 'simp'?"

"..."

Upon hearing this, Ma Zifan's expression immediately became conflicted.

Lin Shen patted his shoulder, then slowly walked to Zheng Yanfei's side and noticed a very obvious handprint on her cheek.

Her skin was delicate and radiant, smooth and supple; it was arguably the best-skinned of all the girls Lin Shen had ever met.

Therefore, even on ordinary days, if Lin Shen gently pinched Zheng Yanfei's cheek, a blush would appear.

Not to mention, like now, being slapped in the face.

"what happened?"

Lin Shen frowned slightly, suddenly feeling a pang of heartache. He then turned his gaze to Zhao Jianing, his eyes revealing a hint of seriousness.

Upon noticing Lin Shen's interrogative and sharp gaze, she immediately waved her hand in explanation.

"I didn't hit her! No, that's not right, she hit me while holding my hand, it wasn't my fault."

"I typed it myself!"

Zheng Yanfei acted as if nothing had happened, smiling as she linked arms with Lin Shen.

"It has nothing to do with Sister Jia Ning."

"why?"

Lin Shen reached out and stroked Zheng Yanfei's cheek, showing great concern and heartache.

"Does it hurt?"

"It doesn't hurt, because Brother Lin Shen, your hands have magic power. As long as I touch them, it won't hurt anymore."

Zheng Yanfei rubbed her cheek against Lin Shen's palm, then blinked her beautiful big eyes, her contact lenses shimmering with an unusual luster in the sunlight.

However, after noticing Lin Shen's questioning gaze, she still cutely stuck out her tongue and stammered an explanation.

"Actually, there's no big reason. It's mainly because I feel really sorry for Brother Lin Shen, about your relationship with your girlfriend..."

"There's no need to hit yourself then."

Lin Shen couldn't help but sigh softly, as if he understood everything, and then looked at Zhao Jianing and said softly.

"Sister Jia Ning, I will handle Xiao Fei's matter properly. Please keep it a secret from Sister Nan for now."

"Ok."

Zhao Jianing nodded, then wisely chose to leave to find Ma Zifan to handle the remaining matters of the car club, giving Lin Shen and Zheng Yanfei some space to chat privately.

"What on earth are you thinking about?"

Lin Shen affectionately tapped Zheng Yanfei's forehead, his action filled with reproach but also with worry.

This forced Zheng Yanfei to lean back slightly, then hugged Lin Shen's arm tightly again, pouting her full, pink lips and acting coquettishly.

"I just feel sorry for you, Brother Lin Shen, since I ruined your relationship with Sister Qin Yuennan."

"I told you, I'll handle this. You don't need to worry about it."

Lin Shen admonished.

"Don't do that again, understand?"

"I'm sorry, it won't happen again."

Zheng Yanfei threw herself into Lin Shen's arms again, as if afraid he would run away. She hugged his waist tightly in public, her heart filled with sweetness.

Hey!

Brother Lin Shen still has me in his heart!
This proves that I didn't suffer that slap for nothing!
Although her cheeks were still burning, Zheng Yanfei felt extremely happy.

Because she got what she wanted in return.

That was Lin Shen's promise!

At least in front of his official girlfriend, he wouldn't be so passive.

Zheng Yanfei was secretly delighted. Of course, with Lin Shen's shrewdness, he could also see through the little green tea's little scheme.

He just didn't expect her to be so brave, that she would actually slap him!

And it didn't look like a fake slap; it was a real, hard slap!
Lin Shen actually admired Zheng Yanfei's manipulative tactics; at least she was truly daring, unlike some other girls.

All they can do is talk, not act.

"Ladies and gentlemen, lunch is ready. Please come and enjoy the delicious food."

At Zhao Jianing's invitation, everyone gathered at the luncheon venue.

The open-air environment enhances the freshness brought by nature, especially the breeze blowing from the lake, which carries the unique chill of early autumn.

Although it was cool, it gave people a strange sense of tranquility.

Add to that the falling yellow leaves, and enjoying food in such a desolate setting might have a unique flavor.

At least Lin Shen quite likes this environment.

After indulging in the finest restaurants, this luncheon, so intimately connected with nature, was truly delightful. Especially since the chefs Zhao Jianing invited were top-tier chefs from Shanghai, with culinary skills among the best in the country.

Steak, pasta, seafood, Japanese food...

The dishes were plentiful and varied in flavor, satisfying the needs of everyone present.

The only downside was the lack of alcohol, which was related to everyone's driving activities in the afternoon.

However, the carbonated sparkling water and various non-alcoholic beverages offered are also quite unique.

After Lin Shen had eaten and drunk his fill, he followed the group to the car and drove Zheng Yanfei around the landmark buildings of Shanghai.

As soon as we left the park, pairs of traffic police officers on motorcycles led the way, with drones overhead filming us. It was as if the trip had been given the most luxurious treatment.

Even at key sections of the road, the drones overhead formed the Ferrari logo.

Zheng Yanfei sat in the passenger seat, capturing the romantic surroundings in her photo album, her beautiful eyes sparkling with amazing brilliance.

She deeply enjoys this feeling of freedom, being unrestrained, not having to struggle for a living, and simply enjoying herself.

But reality is often cruel.

Without Lin Shen, Zheng Yanfei felt she would never have been able to ride in a Ferrari and cruise around Shanghai.

They could even take a photo with Lin Shen on the helipad, leaning against the front of a Ferrari SF90.

She was just an ordinary girl, and because her parents divorced, her family situation was even worse than that of most people.

Aside from having a better figure and face than the average person, she really couldn't think of any other advantages she had.

Therefore, the farsighted Zheng Yanfei had often fantasized about her future, wondering if she would become a vase woman relying on a rich second-generation heir.

The result was exactly as she had expected.

However, the process was somewhat unexpected.

Lin Shen's feelings for her seemed to go beyond mere playfulness.

This filled Zheng Yanfei with gratitude and emotion, and further solidified her resolve to become his mistress.

She was content with her current situation and didn't have any unrealistic hopes of becoming a regular employee under Lin Shen.

She just wanted to stay quietly by Lin Shen's side and fulfill all his needs.

Bo——!
The top floor of Lujiazui Center, the helipad.

While everyone was watching Lin Shen and Zheng Yanfei filming a car scene, Zheng Yanfei suddenly stood on tiptoe and gave Lin Shen a light kiss on the cheek.

Just then, a white dove flew by behind the two of them, and a professional photographer immediately captured the moment, resulting in the best photo of the day.

"hey-hey."

Seeing how romantic and beautiful the "couple" photo she took with Lin Shen was, Zheng Yanfei could no longer suppress the smile on her face and decided to use the photo as her phone wallpaper.

She even considered changing her WeChat profile picture to look like that.

"Brother Lin Shen, isn't it beautiful?"

Zheng Yanfei beckoned Lin Shen to look at the camera in the photographer's hand, and then excitedly said.

"I want to frame it and seal it up!"

"It will be available later."

Zhao Jianing walked over with a smile and looked at the photos the two had just taken together, then said sourly.

"You two look so good together. Anyone who didn't know better would think you were a couple."

"Sister Jia Ning, please stop making fun of me."

Lin Shen quickly feigned weakness and changed the subject.

What's the next project?

"Of course, it's a dinner party."

Zhao Jianing patted Lin Shen on the shoulder and smiled mysteriously.

"This is the main event; it's your turn to shine."

I?
Lin Shen was a little puzzled, but then he suddenly remembered that there was an auction that night, and he understood what Zhao Jianing meant.

However, he wasn't interested in the other auction items; only cars could attract his attention.

Of course, the most important thing is that he still has two chances to use his dream car card MAX.

Perhaps this will be a chance to use it.

Lin Shen pondered silently.

Afterwards, he drove Zheng Yanfei and followed the group to the banquet venue.

Capella Hotel.

At the hotel entrance, a red carpet several meters long was laid all the way to the edge of the street, just enough for people getting out of their cars to step on.

Furthermore, the interior extends along the corridor, with various trophies won by the Ferrari Club displayed on both sides, along with photos of the winning moments.

"Wow!"

Zheng Yanfei looked around curiously, seemingly unable to get enough of what she saw, her beautiful eyes sparkling with amazing brilliance.

After all, being able to attend a banquet of this caliber is a rare and precious opportunity.

After Zheng Yanfei took Lin Shen's arm and entered the courtyard on the first floor of the hotel, she was even more shocked by the scene before her.

The enormous crystal chandelier emitted a dazzling array of colors, while the central mirrored pool projected a "Prancing Horse Light and Shadow Show," which continuously played classic Ferrari race clips.

Meanwhile, hostesses dressed in cheongsams presented each guest attending the banquet with an honor badge.

The badges are differentiated by car model; for example, Lin Shen's Ferrari SF90 has a red badge, while other classic car owners have gold badges.

This is also a key factor in assigning seats later.

After putting on the badge, Lin Shen entered the banquet hall and barely found his seat in the dimly lit environment.

At this moment, a beautiful and sophisticated mature woman was already sitting next to him. She looked to be in her early thirties, with a stunning and mature appearance. Her red evening dress accentuated her exquisite and graceful figure.

Especially her deep cleavage, even with Lin Shen's self-control, he couldn't help but steal a few admiring glances, then moved to her face, his expression one of utter astonishment.

"Hey? Sister Song Ya? What are you doing here?"

"Lin Shen?"

When Song Ya looked up and caught sight of Lin Shen's handsome face, her usually cold expression softened considerably, even showing a hint of surprise and delight.

"What a coincidence! How could I run into you here? Are you also here for the Ferrari-hosted dinner?"

"Yes."

Lin Shen asked in surprise after taking his seat.

Why didn't I see you this afternoon?

"I had something to do and didn't come during the day, so I came directly to the dinner party in the evening."

Song Ya smiled and leaned forward, just about to interact with Lin Shen, when she suddenly noticed a wary look coming from beside him.

Only then did Song Ya notice that there was an extremely young and beautiful woman sitting next to Lin Shen, so she asked her about it out of curiosity.

"Xiao Shen, she is..."

"My girlfriend."

Lin Shen's frankness made Zheng Yanfei very happy.

After all, the fact that Lin Shen took the initiative to introduce her to his friends as his girlfriend means that she has gained his approval!
Zheng Yanfei then offered her hand, her face beaming with a bright smile.

"Hello, Sister Song Ya, my name is Zheng Yanfei."

"Hello."

After shaking hands with Zheng Yanfei, Song Ya smiled and looked at Lin Shen meaningfully.

"Lin Shen, just how many girlfriends do you have that your sister doesn't know about?" (End of Chapter)
