Chapter 91 Reckless Spending
Crab feast.

As a seafood buffet restaurant that moved from Qingdao to Shanghai, Lin Shen had wanted to come here for a long time.

To his shame, although he was already twenty-five years old, he had never eaten any large seafood other than ordinary small shrimp, crabs and oysters.

Not to mention king crab and Boston lobster, which I've only seen pictures and videos of online.

Now, with the system providing him with over 10,000 daily earnings, Lin Shen finally has the opportunity to fulfill his dream of indulging in seafood.

So he led Jiang Wan and the other three to the entrance of the crab banquet.

This left the others somewhat bewildered.

"A crab feast?"

Looking at the luxurious signboard, Zhang Kaile scratched his head.

Even though he wasn't very emotionally intelligent, he knew very well that this store must be very expensive!

He had thought Lin Shen was just casually treating everyone to a regular restaurant, but he never expected it to be a seafood buffet!
"Hello, how much is five?"

Lin Shen went to the front desk to ask, and the waitress answered with a polite smile.

"Hello sir, we have two price slots here, one for 1,000 and one for 1,300. The latter includes two more pounds of king crab per person, as well as other upgraded versions of seafood."

"Then let's go for the one in the 1300 range."

Without saying a word, Lin Shen took out his phone and scanned the QR code to pay.

This caused Zhang Kaile and Yuan Meng to exchange a glance, their expressions no longer showing surprise, but rather deep amazement.

It's as if they're saying, "This is a real rich kid! No kidding."

Lin Ping hesitated to speak, because she had a small appetite and knew she wouldn't get her money's worth at a buffet.

But she was too embarrassed to say it outright, so she could only hesitate and remain silent.

Jiang Wan seemed to notice that Lin Ping's expression was off. She tightened her grip on Lin Shen's arm slightly and leaned closer to whisper in his ear.

"Won't this cost you money?"

"Six thousand five? That doesn't count."

"..."

Eating half a month's salary in one go, isn't that considered a waste of money?

Looking at Lin Shen's calm expression, Jiang Wan felt that she couldn't compare her own spending habits to his.

She originally thought Lin Shen should have earned around several hundred thousand yuan.

But for him to spend so recklessly, it must have cost him at least seven figures!

"Please come in, all five of you."

After paying, the waiter led Lin Shen and the other four to a private room and then took out a tablet.

"You can order all the seafood here, no limit. There are twelve different cooking methods to choose from."

"Let me see……"

Lin Shen swiped the tablet, glanced at the menu briefly, and then began ordering food under the guidance of the waiter.

Half of the ten-pound king crab is steamed and the other half is cooked in a typhoon shelter style. This way, the best flavor is preserved and there is no need to worry about parasites.

Then we ordered five Boston lobsters, ten snow crabs, and several large crabs, which were prepared in various ways, including salt-baked and steamed.

Finally, we ordered a sashimi platter, some small hot dishes, and drinks.

"So be it."

Lin Shen handed the tablet back to the waiter, and after he left, he suddenly noticed that apart from Jiang Wan, the other three were all a bit reserved.

"Don't be so nervous."

Lin Shen chuckled softly.

"Just treat it like a regular buffet. It's really not much different, and it's even not as good as some cheaper buffets."

"Yes."

Yuan Meng nodded in agreement, while Zhang Kaile gradually became more lively under the influence of Lin Shen's enthusiastic attitude.

"By the way, Mr. Lin, may I ask what you do for a living?"

"invest."

Lin Shen felt that this question had been asked many times, and sometimes he would be asked it as soon as he got to know someone.

Does it really matter how rich people got rich?
Lin Shen was a little confused.

Because he was so familiar with the process, he answered extremely fluently, and even when he lied, he did so without blushing or panting, remaining calm and composed.

Zhang Kaile nodded as if he understood, and under his influence, the atmosphere at the dinner table gradually heated up.

Even Lin Ping, who is usually taciturn, couldn't help but say a few words.

Soon, the dishes were served one by one.

First up is the king crab. Carefully remove the meat and roe and put them in a small pot. Two pounds are placed in front of each person and steamed.

At this moment, Zhang Kaile offered to give his king crab to Lin Shen.

Seeing this, others followed suit, saying they didn't like eating king crab.

Do you think I don't know whether you like it or not?

Lin Shen muttered to himself, then directly rejected their suggestion.

It's not that he's being pretentious, but after eating ten pounds of dried king crab, why would he need to eat any other seafood?

The greatest joy of a buffet is tasting a variety of foods, rather than focusing on just one thing.

While the king crab was being steamed, Lin Shen sampled some seafood sashimi.

Salmon, crayfish, and fatty tuna
Sea urchin with caviar, in particular, is a mouthful of unforgettable flavor.

"Not bad!"

Lin Shen couldn't help but admire, and seeing that the others didn't make a move, he called out.

"Don't just watch me eat! You should eat too."

"it is good."

Jiang Wan smiled slightly and started eating. Seeing this, the others also stopped being so polite.

She occasionally helped Lin Shen peel shrimp and crab legs, and the lunch went relatively smoothly.

Of course, it might just mean less fun.

Lin Shen felt that it wasn't as enjoyable as when he ate barbecue with his college roommates. He felt that apart from himself and Jiang Wan, everyone else was rather reserved.

We can't even have a meaningful conversation. Maybe that's the problem with being rich—you don't have many close friends anymore.

Lin Shen pondered silently.

After lunch, Lin Ping returned to Warm Claw Cat Cafe to continue minding the shop, while Lin Shen then took Jiang Wan and the other two back to school.

6 pm.

Lin Shen arrived at Qin Yuennan's office door on time to pick her up after get off work and discuss her weekend cycling trip and business trip next week.

After all, the task of "sports and health" has been stuck on "learning a sport I've never tried before" for quite some time.

Lin Shen urgently needs to complete this task by cycling.

When Qin Yuennan saw him come to pick her up, she remained calm and composed on the surface, her expression even cold and aloof.

But deep down, I was already filled with a faint sense of joy.

Afterwards, Qin Yuennan and Lin Shen went to ZB Fitness gym to work out and then had some grilled fish.

That evening, Lin Shen planned out his weekend schedule.

The first thing to do is definitely shopping.

The "Spending Indulgence Card" had been sitting there, tickling Lin Shen's heart.

So he decided to treat himself tomorrow and indulge himself!

Saturday, December 16, 2025.

24℃～30℃, cloudy turning overcast, southeast wind at level 3.

「建设银行：您尾号7946的账户于08月16日00:01收入RMB 10，700元，当前余额：850，000」

"Thorn--!"

8 o'clock in the morning.

Lin Shen gently drew back the curtains, letting the dancing morning light stream through the glass into the bedroom, bringing the warmth and coolness unique to the sun.

He took a day off today, skipping his morning exercise and physical training.

Get up, wash up, get dressed, and use the [Indulgence Consumption Card].

[Time left for unrestrained spending: 23:59:58]

Lin Shen picked up his car keys and, according to last night's plan, drove straight to one of the most luxurious shopping malls in Shanghai.

Hang Lung Plaza.

A mixed-use commercial building integrating retail mall and office space, it is a fashion landmark and high-end consumption center in Shanghai.

As the tallest building in Qianpu West, it houses more than 100 world-renowned luxury brands, making it a top choice for many wealthy shoppers.

Thanks to the system, Lin Shen was also honored to become one of them.

Upon entering the first floor, he was truly astonished by the luxurious and prestigious interior decorations.

Brilliant and magnificent.

This dreamlike scene amazed Lin Shen, who rarely goes out shopping, and also stirred an irrepressible restlessness within him.

Wow, that's so luxurious!

Following the navigation, Lin Shen first went to Kiton, intending to have a suit custom-made for himself.

As one of the "Big Three" of Italian menswear, Kiton's name comes from "chitone," which refers to the formal, tunic-like robe worn by the ancient Greeks during prayers at the Olympic Games.

Classic, elegant, simple... these are all words that describe it.

If a man wants to customize a "battle outfit" for important occasions, Kiton is definitely the top choice.

Lin Shen was chosen after considering many options.

"Hello sir!"

Kiton flagship store.

As soon as Lin Shen entered the store, the female sales assistant immediately ran over to greet him.

She wore a simple yet stylish uniform, placed her hands on her lower abdomen, bowed, and asked with a smile.

"What do you need?"

"Custom-made suits."

"Yes, sir, this way please."

The saleswoman quickly gestured for Lin Shen to enter and led him into the reception room at the back of the store.

Just then, a young man in a suit walked towards us, smiling as he introduced himself.

"Hello sir, my surname is Zhao. From now on, I will be your personal suit consultant. If you have any questions about your suit, please feel free to come to me. May I ask your surname?"

"My surname is Lin."

A personal consultant for suits?
This startled Lin Shen, who then couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

Are bespoke suits this high-end now? They even have consultants!
"Hello Mr. Lin, I'd like to conduct a survey first."

Xiao Zhao, the sales assistant, sat opposite Lin Shen and asked him softly about his purpose for ordering the suit, his budget, and his preferences.

After giving a brief overview, Lin Shen took out his tablet again to demonstrate the suit's cut, fabric, color, pattern, and button style.

World-class suit brands like Kiton are extremely meticulous about the selection of fabrics, and of course, the selection of fabrics is the starting point for any custom-made suit.

After all, no matter how good the craftsmanship is, if the fabric has no distinctive features, the most exquisite sewing skills will be worthless.

“At Kiton, we have some of the world’s most precious fabrics, including pure alpaca wool, cashmere, premium wool and silk, and 100% of them are made in England and Scotland.”

"Of course, we also produce our own Vicuan fabric, which is far superior to ordinary cashmere in terms of feel, texture, and abrasion resistance."

"..."

After Xiao Zhao's introduction, Lin Shen felt like his brain was about to explode.

He realized for the first time that custom-made suits could be so time-consuming.

After nearly half an hour of selection, Lin Shen finally finalized all aspects of the suit and moved on to the measurement stage.

First, Xiao Zhao took out a measuring tape and measured himself by hand. He stood upright for more than ten minutes just to keep his back straight.

Next comes the machine's 3D scanning measurement, which minimizes errors.

This meticulous and thoughtful service allowed Lin Shen to finally experience the life of the wealthy.

A suit costing 100,000 yuan definitely needs to be carefully selected.
