What Lin Shen liked most had to be the balcony’s floor-to-ceiling windows.
After all, they allowed one to appreciate both the scenery outside and the "scenery" inside.
The only drawback was how easily one could be seen by people outside.
Of course, for so people, that might be considered a plus.
Avoiding it was simple enough.
All you had to do was keep the living room lights off.
In the dim light, no one would be able to see what was happening inside through the balcony windows.
Besides, the Ritz-Carlton Hotel was extrely tall, designed to protect guest privacy.
That was why Lin Shen had planned to book a suite with floor-to-ceiling windows, thinking he might get a chance to try things out with Qin Yuenan.
So, he decisively chose the legendary presidential suite.
After all, Lin Shen wanted to splurge on this trip and get a true taste of a millionaire’s life.
However, Qin Yuenan was worried whether Lin Shen’s finances could handle it. ’Thirty thousand a night... for five nights, that’s the price of a car!’
Just as Qin Yuenan was trying to figure out how to talk Lin Shen out of it, the receptionist checked her computer and said apologetically,
"I’m sorry, sir, but the presidential suite has already been booked."
"Is that so."
Lin Shen sounded slightly disappointed, but he quickly asked,
"What other available suites do you have?"
"We have the Ritz-Carlton Suite."
The receptionist introduced it with a smile.
"Its balcony has floor-to-ceiling windows with a view of the city and the lake as well. It also features dual bathrooms, a private kitchen, an in-room bar, and 24-hour butler service."
"We’ll take that one."
Lin Shen turned to Qin Yuenan to get her ID.
"Nan, give your ID."
"..."
Qin Yuenan ignored Lin Shen and asked the receptionist in a low voice,
"How much is the suite you ntioned per night?"
"Thirteen thousand."
’That’s still a bit expensive!’
Qin Yuenan’s brow furrowed. Just as she was about to say sothing, Lin Shen suddenly covered her mouth with his hand, leaned in, and whispered forcefully in her ear.
"This ti, you’ll listen to ."
"..."
As Lin Shen’s magnetic, deep voice resonated in her ear, Qin Yuenan’s heart began to race uncontrollably, and her head suddenly felt dizzy.
This was because Lin Shen was so different from his usual gentle self. His tone was firm, and his words held a trace of unyielding dominance.
Of all Lin Shen’s moods and personality traits, this was one Qin Yuenan had never seen before—and it was the type she liked most!
She had often dread of Lin Shen acting just like this, full of masculine confidence.
Stern, cool, handso...
His entire being radiated a distinctly male hormonal aura.
Qin Yuenan had thought she’d never get to see this side of Lin Shen in real life. Who would have known she’d be lucky enough to witness it today!
’So handso!’
A schoolgirl-like infatuation blood in Qin Yuenan’s heart. She imdiately backed away slightly, her pretty face flushing as she silently consented to Lin Shen’s room upgrade.
DING!
After Lin Shen paid the sixty thousand yuan room fee, the receptionist asked them to have a seat on the lobby sofa and wait for a mont.
Seeing his chance, Wang Shuo quickly said his goodbyes to Qin Yuenan, ready to head back to the company.
"President Qin, please get so rest. We’ll be here to pick you up at 2:30 PM sharp."
"Alright."
Qin Yuenan, who had just been completely srized by Lin Shen, quickly reverted to her usual cool and collected deanor in front of Wang Shuo. She nodded and watched him leave.
Just then, a butler dressed in a tailcoat suit and white gloves walked over briskly, bowed, and said politely,
"Mr. Lin, Ms. Qin, hello. I am your personal butler, Wang. During your stay at the Ritz-Carlton Hotel, please feel free to contact at any ti if you have any issues."
"Okay."
Led by the butler, Lin Shen and Qin Yuenan took a dedicated VIP elevator straight to the 55th floor.
The elevator only served three floors, making it convenient for VIP guests in the executive suites to travel quickly.
When Lin Shen and Qin Yuenan arrived at their door, they found a bellhop already waiting with their luggage.
The butler opened the door. As they stepped inside, the space opened up dramatically.
A minimalist, Nordic-style foyer greeted them. To the left was a coat rack and a bench for changing shoes; to the right, a semi-open-plan bar and kitchen.
Straight ahead lay an incredibly spacious living room with a 270-degree panoramic view. Lin Shen was inwardly stunned by the wraparound floor-to-ceiling windows.
He felt as if he were suspended in midair, with the entirety of Jinling City spread out beneath him.
And this was just the view at noon; he could hardly imagine how spectacular it would be at night.
"Not bad!"
Lin Shen looked all around, admiring the suite’s opulence, feeling the sixty thousand was money well spent.
Even the normally composed Qin Yuenan was stunned by the luxurious surroundings. Her beautiful eyes widened as she took everything in.
Just then, the butler approached and asked quietly,
"Mr. Lin, Ms. Qin, would you like to help you unpack and organize your luggage?"
"No, thank you."
Qin Yuenan waved her hand dismissively and wheeled her suitcase into the master bedroom to unpack.
anwhile, Lin Shen turned to the butler with a curious expression.
"What are the options for lunch?"
"On the 58th floor, our Sky Corridor has an international buffet with cuisines from five nations. It is complintary for you both," the butler explained with a smile.
"Of course, if you’d rather not go out, we also offer private in-suite dining. A master of Huaiyang cuisine can cook for you here, with prices ranging from 1,500 to 3,000 per person."
"Hm... I see."
"Very good, Mr. Lin. If you need anything at all, you can call anyti using the suite’s telephone."
"Oh, one more thing."
Just then, Qin Yuenan, who had been unpacking, ca out of the master bedroom and handed a blazer set to the butler.
"Could you have this pressed for ? I need it this afternoon."
"Of course, Ms. Qin."
The butler took the suit, bowed, and led the bellhop out of the suite.
"So, what do you think?"
Once the "nuisance" had finally left, Lin Shen sidled up to Qin Yuenan, expertly wrapping an arm around her slender waist with a smug smile.
"This suite I upgraded us to is pretty nice, isn’t it?"
"Mm."
Qin Yuenan nodded in agreent, then slapped away Lin Shen’s hand as it road toward her shapely rear, shooting him a glare.
"Go unpack your luggage. We’ll eat after, we have things to do this afternoon."
"Alright."
Unhurried, Lin Shen wheeled his suitcase into the other master bedroom.
Just as he’d expected, the bed was enormous—more than enough for two people.
Lin Shen hung his clothes in the closet and left the rest of his luggage open on the floor.
After leaving the suite, the pair took the elevator to the 58th floor.
The buffet restaurant was already bustling with people.
Most were refined-looking, successful types, but there was also a family of three traveling with their young child.
Lin Shen and Qin Yuenan found a quiet corner before grabbing plates to get so food.
There was Huaxia’s salted duck and tofu pudding, Japanese sashimi and eel, Italian prosciutto and pasta...
Lin Shen felt that the Ritz-Carlton Hotel’s buffet was better than any other he’d been to.
The most important thing for a buffet was variety and a rich selection of dishes.
And the Ritz-Carlton Hotel had certainly delivered on that front.
’Nice!’
Lin Shen took a small portion of everything, planning to try every single dish over the next five days.
Qin Yuenan, on the other hand, ate very little. She even had her laptop out, working as she ate.
Seeing this, Lin Shen chuckled and teased her.
"Our President Qin is so busy, it seems."
"I need to review the materials for this afternoon’s eting."
Qin Yuenan shot Lin Shen a look and turned her focus back to her screen.
He took the hint and didn’t disturb her.
After lunch, they returned to the suite. The butler was already waiting at the door with the freshly pressed suit.
"Ms. Qin, your suit."
"Thank you."
Once inside, Qin Yuenan went to her room to change while Lin Shen asked the butler,
"Do you provide suits?"
"We offer a suit rental service," the butler replied with a smile.
"Would you care to follow ?"
"Lead the way."
Without asking the price, Lin Shen followed the butler to a wardrobe room on the second floor.
His own custom suit wasn’t ready yet, and besides, the main purpose of this trip was supposed to be tourism.
So Lin Shen hadn’t packed any formal wear.
But since he was acting as Qin Yuenan’s "assistant," he couldn’t look too shabby.
’I have to make Nan look good!’
So, Lin Shen decided to rent a suit and change up his hairstyle as well.
He’d go from his textured crop to a center-parted slick-back.
As the saying goes, "A man’s hair goes back when his career moves forward."
It was Lin Shen’s first ti trying such a style, and he couldn’t help but feel a little apprehensive.
Luckily, his looks—enhanced by Sports Health—were more than striking enough to pull off even the most distinctive hairstyle.
"Hmm, it feels like sothing’s missing."
Dressed in a Zegna suit, Lin Shen studied his reflection in the full-length mirror. Suddenly, inspiration struck. He picked up a pair of non-prescription, half-fra business glasses from a nearby tray and put them on.
In an instant, the handso, trendy young man transford into a suave scoundrel in a suit.
The tailored suit accentuated his strong, well-proportioned physique.
His jawline was sharp and defined, the knuckles on his hands prominent.
Add to that the green and gold watch on his wrist and the wicked half-smile playing on his lips.
Lin Shen felt his entire aura had leveled up significantly.
’Nice!’
Just as Lin Shen was reveling in his own vanity, his phone rang.
It was Qin Yuenan. Her icy tone suggested she was getting impatient.
"Hello? Where did you run off to? Get up here, now! We’re about to leave."
"On my way."
After hanging up, Lin Shen imdiately headed upstairs to et Qin Yuenan.
But the mont he opened the door to the suite, she froze. Her expression, which had been tinged with resentnt, instantly morphed into one of pure shock and astonishnt.
"What’s wrong?"
Lin Shen asked, puzzled, waving a hand in front of her face.
When she finally snapped out of it, she let out a soft, uncharacteristically breathless murmur.
"So handso..."
