Chapter 350 Mahjong Game
In the card and chess room, in private room 444.

The moment Qin Yuennan appeared, the group that had been exchanging pleasantries with Lin Shen fell silent.

Everyone turned their gazes toward this aloof and sophisticated woman, their eyes filled with astonishment and amazement.

This is the look that boys often have when they look at pretty girls. Even though the other person is Lin Shen's girlfriend, he still can't control the deep-seated amazement he feels for a beautiful woman.

What a beautiful girl!

Lin Shen actually introduced her as his girlfriend?
While everyone was still stunned, Qin Yuennan had already gotten used to being watched.

Whenever she meets a new person, they always stare at her in amazement.

It doesn't even have to do with gender.

Therefore, Qin Yuennan was already used to it and politely nodded to everyone.

"Hello, I am Lin Shen's girlfriend, Qin Yuenan."

"Hello!"

Xu Xu was the first to react, nodding and saying hello several times. He seemed startled and stuttered a bit. He even stood up uneasily, wiping his hands on his clothes, looking awkward and helpless.

Seeing this, Lin Shen smiled, patted him on the shoulder, and introduced his childhood friend to Qin Yuennan.

"Sister Nan, let me introduce you to Wang Xu. Just call him Xu Xu, that's what we all call him. He's the youngest among us, but he's very capable. He got the highest score in the college entrance exam back then, he's a top student."

"No, no, Brother Shen is just flattering me to death every day, isn't he!"

Xu Xu seemed a little flustered in front of Qin Yuennan. After arguing with Lin Shen, he took the initiative to hand over to Qin Yuennan.

"Hello, Sister Nan, it's a pleasure to meet you."

"Hello."

Qin Yuennan generally doesn't shake hands with men, unless they are business partners of the same position, in which case she will politely shake hands with them.

But Xu Xu is clearly not one of them.

However, judging from the atmosphere in which Lin Shen interacted with them, it was very harmonious and relaxed.

Therefore, Qin Yuennan concluded that this group of people must be very good friends with Lin Shen.

After all, a relationship built on childhood friendships is a true relationship.

They won't feel negative emotions like jealousy because of someone's rapid success, but will instead think of things like "taking me with them".

Therefore, Qin Yuennan shook hands with Xu Xu.

After all, they were Lin Shen's childhood friends, so he couldn't be too impolite.

"This is Cheng Qian."

Lin Shen continued to introduce them one by one.

"Just call him Little Money."

"This is Chen Chang, our groom who will be getting married tomorrow. Isn't he handsome?"

"Handsome my ass!"

Hearing Lin Shen tease him, Chen Chang nudged him in the chest with his elbow, looking utterly speechless.

"Compared to how drastically you've changed, am I handsome? Don't be so sarcastic. I'm starting to regret asking you to be my best man. I think you'll steal the spotlight from me tomorrow."

"Then should I quit?"

Lin Shen chuckled and teased.

"The best man has to get up early and do a lot of things, which is a real hassle. I just want to relax a bit, have a meal, and then slip away."

"That won't work."

Upon hearing that Lin Shen was having second thoughts, Chen Chang hurriedly stopped him and said with a wry smile.

"I was just kidding, Brother Shen, you absolutely have to come. I've already prepared a gift for you."

After saying that, Chen Chang gave Huang Xin a look, and she quickly brought out a gift box wrapped in a paper bag with the character "囍" (double happiness) from a corner.

"It's just a small token of my appreciation, please accept it."

After handing the gift box to Lin Shen, Chen Chang looked at Qin Yuennan with an apologetic expression.

"I didn't know you were bringing your girlfriend back, so I didn't prepare anything for her today. Come find me at the wedding tomorrow, and I'll make it up to you."

"fine."

Qin Yuennan shook her head, then took out two red envelopes from her bag and handed them to Chen Chang.

"This is a wedding gift from Lin Shen and me. We wish you a happy marriage."

"Thank you."

Although Qin Yuennan's expression remained icy, her gentle words revealed that her congratulations came from the bottom of her heart.

This made Chen Chang breathe a sigh of relief.

After all, judging from Qin Yuennan's appearance, she doesn't seem easy to get along with and appears somewhat aloof.

But they're actually quite friendly!
Chen Chang smiled and took the red envelope from Qin Yuennan's hand, but when he took it, he was surprised to find that it was so thick.

He touched it subconsciously, then looked down and froze.

Because the red envelope was bulging with at least a hundred banknotes stacked together.

If they are all hundred-yuan bills, that means ten thousand yuan?

Two 20,000 yuan each?
Chen Chang was stunned. After all, the gifts he received were only three to five hundred yuan, and even his closest childhood friend only gave him a maximum of one thousand yuan.

As a result, Lin Shen and his partner gave me 10,000 yuan as a gift?
My brother and sister have never received this much!

Chen Chang quickly pulled Lin Shen aside, looking slightly puzzled.

"Brother Shen, how much did you give me as a gift?"

"Twenty thousand."

Lin Shen chuckled softly.

"Nan and I will each take 10,000."

"That's too much!"

Chen Chang hurriedly returned the red envelope and said anxiously.

"Why are you giving so much? A few hundred would be enough."

"Hey, with our relationship, a few hundred isn't worth that much. Besides, once a red envelope is given, there's no reason to ask for it back."

Lin Shen smiled and pushed the red envelope back into Chen Chang's hand.

"Keep it. When Nan and I get married, you'll give us a gift."

"Of course."

Chen Chang knew very well that whatever amount others gave as a gift, he would definitely have to give the same amount, or even several hundred more.

But Lin Shen's generosity really startled Chen Chang.

This made him unable to suppress his curiosity and ask Lin Shen for details.

"Have you made a fortune? How come you're giving so much at once?"

"That's it."

Lin Shen didn't deny the fact that he made a lot of money, which made Chen Chang pat him on the shoulder and ask with a smile.

"Wow, you're something else! What kind of job pays so much? Did you get a promotion? Or did you switch jobs and start a new one?"

"nothing."

Lin Shen shrugged.

"I resigned."

Resigned?
This news surprised Chen Chang quite a bit, and he immediately showed a look of astonishment.

"You resigned? What are you doing now?"

"Starting a business".

Lin Shen chuckled softly.

"Starting a business with my girlfriend."

"Wow, no wonder you're so rich."

Chen Chang asked in a low voice.

"How much can you earn in a year?"

"Ah."

Lin Shen didn't say it outright, but instead showed Chen Chang the number eight, which made him pause in surprise, his expression immediately turning into disbelief.

"Eight hundred thousand? Not bad, kid! You've really made it big!"

"No." Lin Shen shook his head with a smile, which made Chen Chang's heart skip a beat, and even his voice became several times lower than usual.

"Eight million? That's impossible. How long have you been running this business? How can you make so much money?"

"It's an eight-digit number."

Lin Shen's words completely baffled Chen Chang. It took him a while to slowly come to his senses, and his voice rose several decibels uncontrollably.

"No way, buddy! Eight figures? You earn eight figures a year? Ten million?"

"It doesn't necessarily have to be the first one."

Seeing the surprised looks from the others, Lin Shen quickly put his arm around Cheng Chang's shoulder and changed the subject with a smile.

"Let's not talk about this now, let's play cards first and talk while we play."

"..."

Chen Chang was so shocked that he couldn't speak. After all, he never expected that Lin Shen could fly so high!
Not only did he become more handsome and have a better physique, but he also started his own business and made so much money!

Cow!

Chen Chang couldn't help but give Lin Shen a thumbs up, without a doubt about the truthfulness of his words.

After all, most people would only brag about earning a few hundred thousand, or even a million a year.

Because this is already a bit of an overstatement.

But who knew that Lin Shen would say he earns tens of millions a year!

It's not even ten million, it's tens of millions!
Who would dare to boast about something this awesome?

Even if I said it out loud, I guess everyone would just laugh it off.

But Chen Chang always felt that Lin Shen had no reason to deceive him. After all, they had such a good relationship. Even if you become successful, we won't be jealous. We'll just be happy for you.

Why force yourself to show off in front of your best friend?

Besides, Chen Chang and Lin Shen have been childhood friends for over ten years. How could he not know what kind of personality Lin Shen has?

Mature and steady, sometimes a bit mischievous, but definitely not the kind of person who likes to brag or enjoy flattery.

Therefore, Chen Chang felt that Lin Shen had not lied to him.

But earning tens of millions a year was still too dreamlike, and Chen Chang found it hard to believe.

After he returned to his seat, Huang Xin offered Lin Shen a seat.

He glanced at Qin Yuenan and asked with a smile.

"Sister Nan, do you know how to play mahjong?"

"meeting."

Qin Yuennan nodded.

“Our family plays mahjong every year during the Chinese New Year.”

"Really? Why don't you go ahead and do it, I'll watch."

Since there were only four seats for playing mahjong, but there were six people present, Lin Shen simply found a seat next to Qin Yuennan and planned to watch her play mahjong.

After returning to his seat, Chen Chang's first action was to hand over the two red envelopes that Lin Shen had just given him to Huang Xin.

When she touched the heavy red envelope, her expression was just as astonished as Chen Chang's.

She then quietly asked Cheng Chang.

"Honey, why is this red envelope so thick? Isn't your childhood friend working in Shanghai? Why did he give so much? Are you two very close?"

"It's good, but not to the extent of going that far."

Chen Chang glanced at Lin Shen, who was explaining the local mahjong rules to Qin Yuennan, and then whispered.

“He seems to have made a lot of money lately, which is why he gave so much as a wedding gift. But we can’t just take it for nothing. We’ll have to give him a gift back when they get married.”

"I see."

Huang Xin was clearly a sensible girl. After nodding, she put the red envelope into her bag, but couldn't help but steal a few glances at Lin Shen.

Well, his handsomeness is indeed unique; he's the kind of guy who grows on you the more you look at him.

He might not be very handsome at first glance, but the longer you look at him, the more delicate and refined he becomes.

But Huang Xin only admired him, since she already had someone she liked.

So after Lin Shen taught Qin Yuennan some mahjong rules, the group started playing.

As she said, she is indeed skilled at playing; her techniques and card-playing are very systematic, clearly those of a seasoned player.

Therefore, taking advantage of the opportunity to play mahjong, everyone was very curious about Qin Yuenan, but none of them dared to ask her directly.

After all, it would be too impolite to ask first.

Fortunately, after Qin Yuennan played for a while and Lin Shen took her place, Huang Xin, who was sitting and watching her husband play cards, mustered up her courage as a woman and quietly asked Qin Yuennan a question.

"Sister Nan, are you a print model?"

"No."

Qin Yuennan answered softly.

"I am currently starting a business with Lin Shen."

"Oh, I see."

Huang Xin suddenly realized what was going on, and then chatted with Qin Yuennan about everyday things, only to become more and more surprised as they talked.

Twin girls from the Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Shanghai region; their family runs a business, and so do their relatives.

My older sister studied abroad, and my older and younger brothers are all graduates of prestigious universities.

She's definitely a rich, beautiful, and successful woman!

She's so much better than Lin Shen's last girlfriend!
They should even be better off than Lin Shen's family...

How could such an outstanding girl end up with Lin Shen?

It wasn't that Huang Xin looked down on Lin Shen, but rather that her impression of Lin Shen was still based on the past.

Lin Shen's sudden rise to prominence surprised Huang Xin, so she continued to quietly inquire with Qin Yuennan.

"May I ask what kind of business you run?"

"pet."

pet!?
Upon hearing about this industry, Huang Xin's eyes lit up.

"Really? I own a pet community in our county that provides pet bathing and grooming services! What do you do? Pet food? Pet veterinary care? Or something like us?"

"Do them all."

Qin Yuennan was also somewhat surprised, not expecting to encounter so-called "colleagues" here.

So she openly shared her and Lin Shen's entrepreneurial project.

"Have you ever heard of Shennan?"

Shennan!?
Upon hearing the name, Huang Xin's eyes lit up, and her expression changed from initial astonishment to surprise and admiration.

"You're the founders of Shennan? I've heard of you!"

"You founded Shennan, Lin Shen?"

Chen Chang, who was standing to the side, couldn't help but chime in, and then asked his wife curiously.

"Have you heard of it?"

"I've not only heard of it, it's really popular on Douyin lately!"

Huang Xin excitedly introduced it to Chen Chang.

"Many pet bloggers promoted them, and when the physical store opened, the number of people online exceeded several thousand."

"After that, they seemed to have launched cat and dog food. I even bought a trial pack, and it's really good! Not only is it cheap, but its nutritional value is also similar to other brands' flagship packs, making it excellent value for money!"

"Thank you for your compliment."

Upon hearing Huang Xin's high praise for Shen Nan, Qin Yuenan responded with a smile.

"Actually, we at Shennan also have a higher-end version of our flagship pet food that's more suitable. Where is your store? I can send you some later."

"Okay."

Huang Xin smiled broadly and took out her phone to add Qin Yuennan on WeChat.

"Let's add each other on WeChat. If there are any problems, we can discuss them together, and I'll keep you informed of customer feedback."

Huang Xin knew very well that Qin Yuennan hadn't sent her pet food for no reason; he probably wanted to provide market feedback.

Since that's the case, I'll just cooperate a bit; who knows, we might be able to work together in the future!
