Chapter 360 - 192: Reunion
’So this is how rich people travel,’
’they don’t have to bring anything. They just buy whatever they need when they get there.’
’So ridiculously extravagant!’
"Alright then."
Qin Yuenan snuggled happily in Lin Shen’s arms, and a wave of drowsiness instantly washed over her.
Her breathing became even, her breath soft and gentle.
Once Lin Shen was sure the cool beauty was more or less asleep, he quietly sent a message to Jiang Wan on his phone, then turned over and went to sleep.
Lin Shen: Happy Teacher’s Day, Senior!

September 10, 2025. Thursday.
24°C–30°C, overcast, level 2 southeast wind, 40% humidity.
The lingering chill from the rain hadn’t completely dissipated, making for the most comfortable weather.
It was neither muggy like when it rained, nor was it as sweltering as usual.
After getting up and opening the window, a gentle breeze carrying the slight chill of early autumn blew in, refreshing his spirit.
Lin Shen squinted slightly, savoring the feeling for a moment before it dawned on him.
’So it’s already autumn.’
’No more pale, slender legs to look at on the streets. What a shame!’
Lin Shen sighed softly, walked back to the bed, and gave Qin Yuenan’s perky bottom a light pat. He then said the words he had always wanted to say.
"If you don’t get up soon, the sun’s gonna be warming your butt."
"It’s overcast today, what sun..."
Qin Yuenan muttered under her breath, rubbing her drowsy eyes as she got out of bed. Yawning, she went to the bathroom to wash up.
Lin Shen followed her in.
After they were ready, Qin Yuenan left her Volvo S90 at home, grabbed her packed luggage, and got into Lin Shen’s car to head to his place.
On the way, he suddenly asked.
"Have you thought about getting a new car?"
"A new car?"
Sitting in the passenger seat, Qin Yuenan blinked.
"Are you offering to buy me one?"
"Mhm."
"I haven’t really thought about getting a new car recently. My Volvo drives just fine."
Qin Yuenan asked back, a little curious.
"I mean, it’s one thing for me as a girl to not be that into cars, but are you, a grown man, really planning to keep driving this Jaguar forever?"
"Didn’t I tell you last time? I ordered a Maybach S680. You know how notoriously difficult it is to get one of those."
Lin Shen said with a chuckle.
"I’ve got the business car covered, so I’m thinking of getting a sports car now. Any recommendations?"
"I don’t know anything about them. Asking me is useless."
Qin Yuenan thought for a moment before analyzing the situation.
"A sports car... I remember guys usually like Ferraris the most, right? Why not be like that big-shot influencer on TikTok and get an SF90? With your money, you should be able to afford it, right?"
"I can definitely afford it, but for that specific car, it seems you need to have a good relationship with the Ferrari dealership to even buy one."
Lin Shen hinted indirectly.
"They usually don’t sell it to new customers buying a Ferrari for the first time, unless an established regular brings you in. After all, the annual production of this car is really limited."
"I get it."
Qin Yuenan understood Lin Shen’s meaning in an instant, the corners of her lips curling up slightly.
"You’ve really asked the right person. Zhao Jianing owns several Ferraris and has a good relationship with the Ferrari dealership here in Modu. When you’re ready to buy, I’ll have her take you."
"Great."
This was exactly what Lin Shen had been aiming for. He chuckled and said,
"There’s no rush. Let’s finish up with the Pet Society first. The car is secondary."
"The soft opening is this weekend, right?"
Qin Yuenan gently squeezed Lin Shen’s hand, comforting him.
"Don’t worry too much. Relax."
"Mhm."
Despite saying that, Lin Shen couldn’t help but feel a little apprehensive.
’After all, the first step is always the hardest!’
’But as long as this first step goes well, it’ll be smooth sailing from here on out!’
After driving back home, Lin Shen changed out of his suit and shirt into some casual clothes suitable for traveling and packed his outdoor gear into his suitcase.
Just over ten minutes later, he came downstairs.
Then, the two of them called a car to the high-speed rail station. Just like last time, they waited in the VIP lounge and had some breakfast.
At 9:45 AM, the high-speed train departed on time.
Once Lin Shen and Qin Yuenan boarded the train, their second trip together officially began.

「10:00 AM.」
After dropping Anan off at school, Lin Ping drove the car Lin Shen had given her to the Shennan Pet Society.
When she arrived, she didn’t get out of the car right away. Instead, she sat in the driver’s seat, closing her eyes to rest for a moment.
Her right hand caressed the brand-new interior, and the corners of her lips curled up. She felt an endless sense of satisfaction and happiness.
’She never would have imagined that the first car she ever owned wouldn’t be a gift from her husband, but from her lover!’
’What an absurd world.’
After shaking her head with a silent laugh, Lin Ping got out of the car and pushed up the rolling metal door of the Shennan Pet Society.
CLANG—!
With the soft opening approaching, the list of tasks had grown tedious again.
First, she had to assess and manage the cats’ physical condition to ensure they were all healthy and active.
This way, they would be ready to interact with customers during business hours.
Second was stocking supplies.
Coffee beans, milk, sugar, and so on all had to be moved onto the shelves, their quality and expiration dates checked to make sure they met standards.
As for the small desserts and snacks that would be sold later, they had to be bought ready-made the day before the soft opening to prevent spoilage.
Finally, she had to decorate and tidy up the shop’s interior to create a warm and soothing atmosphere.
Lin Shen had originally told Lin Ping to just hire a cleaning service, but she decided to do it all herself.
For one, she was afraid others wouldn’t clean it thoroughly enough, and for another, she wanted to do more for Lin Shen.
Otherwise, after receiving so many gifts from him, it was hard for her to feel at ease.
Just as Lin Ping, wearing an apron, was wiping the surface dust off a tabletop with a rag, the bell on the door suddenly rang.
TING-A-LING—!
’A customer?’
Lin Ping’s expression froze. She turned around, about to say, "Sorry, we’re not open for business yet," but when she saw who it was, she was completely stunned.
"Feifei?"
"Auntie!"
The moment she confirmed it was Lin Ping, Zheng Yanfei broke into a little run and threw herself into her aunt’s arms, her face beaming with a brilliant smile.
