What?!
Hearing Lin Shen’s description of his girlfriend, Zheng Yanfei’s heart lurched. A powerful wave of insecurity washed over her.
’So the "business partner" he ntioned last ti at the Chanel counter was his girlfriend!’
’The bag I helped him pick out might have been the very thing that took their relationship to the next level!’
Zheng Yanfei grew even more dejected at the thought.
’She’s a high-powered executive making millions a year, and I’m just a poor student. How can I possibly compete with that?!’
Wait!
Suddenly, Zheng Yanfei’s eyes lit up. She rembered Lin Shen ntioning that his girlfriend was almost thirty.
’She’s that old?!’
In an instant, Zheng Yanfei’s confidence ca rushing back, a smug look spreading across her face.
’I don’t care what her status is. One of the most attractive things to a man is youth!’
’She might be gorgeous, but I’m only twenty!’
’I might still have a chance!’
"Then get her a watch!"
Zheng Yanfei offered her suggestion.
"Lin Shen, since your girlfriend is a high-level executive, she must value punctuality. I think a watch is an excellent choice."
"Hmm."
Lin Shen thought she had a point.
And so, the two headed to the next stop on their shopping trip.
The Patek Philippe boutique.
As the "Rolex" of won’s tipieces, Patek Philippe had arguably perfected the art of the ladies’ watch.
Its aesthetic, in particular, was a favorite among won.
This was precisely why Lin Shen had chosen the brand.
"Lin Shen, what price range are you looking for?"
"Sothing around a million."
Lin Shen thought for a mont. Given Qin Yuenan’s personality, she probably wouldn’t accept a watch that was too expensive.
She was well aware that he was in the middle of launching a business. If he gave her a watch worth several million at a ti like this, he’d probably get a stern lecture...
A million was the sweet spot—not too expensive, but not cheap either.
"A million..."
Truthfully, Zheng Yanfei was deeply envious.
The price of the gift alone showed just how much Lin Shen cared for his executive girlfriend.
’She must be gorgeous!’
Zheng Yanfei mused to herself.
’I still have a long way to go before I can reach that level!’
But Zheng Yanfei wasn’t discouraged. She put her knowledge of luxury goods on full display for Lin Shen, ticulously introducing various Patek Philippe ladies’ watches in the million-yuan price range and helping him compare them.
This left the sales associate in the awkward position of being unable to get a word in edgewise. Her only role was to take out each watch Zheng Yanfei ntioned for Lin Shen to inspect.
Ultimately, he chose a quartz watch from the Patek Philippe Aquanaut series.
It had a white dial paired with an 18K rose gold case—elegant and fashionable.
Plus, the price wasn’t too steep, coming in at just under 800,000.
And because Lin Shen was a VIP custor, they even threw in a complintary light brown strap.
"Your girlfriend is so lucky."
Zheng Yanfei expressed her deep envy as they left the Patek Philippe boutique.
This made him raise an eyebrow, and he teased her with a wry smile.
"What? You want to be that lucky, too?"
"I do!"
Zheng Yanfei decided to stop hiding her feelings for him. She gazed at him affectionately and asked shyly,
"Could you make that lucky?"
"That depends on your performance."
Lin Shen cleared his throat and continued.
"You still need to help pick out two more gifts. I have other girlfriends to buy for."
"One is a gentle and understanding older-sister type. She’s a counselor at a university. As for her tastes, there’s nothing too specific—she likes the kinds of things most won do."
"There’s another one who’s about to start college here in Modu. She’s lively, energetic, and a bit of a mischievous imp. She loves to bake and cook, and she’s quite good at it."
"..."
Zheng Yanfei was completely floored to hear Lin Shen say he had three girlfriends.
She’d already figured that with his looks and status, he was probably a player. It wouldn’t have been a surprise if he were two-timing soone.
But she never, ever imagined he would just openly admit it!
And it wasn’t just two-timing... it was three!
"Wow, Lin Shen, you’re such a player,"
Zheng Yanfei’s comnt held no trace of disgust. Instead, the corners of her lips curled up as she celebrated inwardly.
’What did it an that Lin Shen had so many girlfriends?’
’It ant that I could beco one of them, too!’
