Chapter 190: Chapter 143: Invitation
"You live here?"
"The one and only."
Seeing Lin Shenâs smiling expression, Jiang Wan was so shocked she didnât know what to say.
She knew her junior had made a lot of money after graduation, but she never imagined it would be this much!
Just based on the neighborhoodâs location and environment, Jiang Wan estimated that the price per square meter here was definitely over 100,000.
âAssuming an apartment is 100 square meters, does that mean Lin Shen had earned over ten million in just three short years?â
âMaybe even more!â
Jiang Wanâs mouth fell open slightly, her expression adorably dumbfounded.
Seeing her astonishment, Lin Shen chuckled and teased her.
"What? Is there something on my face?"
đđ«đđČđđđđ§đ đđđ„.đđđ
"No, I just think youâre so amazing."
Jiang Wan exclaimed from the bottom of her heart.
She wasnât a saint, so naturally, she was very interested in money too. She couldnât help but ask curiously.
"Where on earth did you make all this money?"
"I believe I told you last time, seniorâinvestments and stocks."
âCan you really make that much money from investments and stocks?â
Forgive her for her limited knowledge, but Jiang Wan found it hard to believe and remained somewhat skeptical.
In her mind, most of the professions that could make that much money in such a short time were written into the criminal code.
However, Jiang Wan had great faith in Lin Shenâs character and knew he would never do anything illegal.
âSo, could it be possible that his family was just this rich all along?â
âIf thatâs true, he was way too low-key in college!â
Jiang Wan suddenly recalled the Lin Shen from their university daysâso ordinary you wouldnât give him a second glance, a complete wallflower during club activities.
But now, he had become so dazzling...
Jiang Wan felt a pang of emotion at how much things had changed, while Lin Shen waved a hand in front of her zoned-out face.
"Senior, are you planning to film the confession scene in the underground parking garage?"
"Sorry."
Jiang Wan apologized, then got out of the car, took Lin Shenâs arm, and stuck her tongue out cutely.
"Letâs go."
"Okay."
Lin Shen and Jiang Wan went to the entrance of Building 8, put on their gear, and started filming.
Things went very smoothly again; they got it perfect after only three retakes.
After all, after the past few days, they were both "seasoned actors."
Jiang Wan didnât want to trouble Lin Shen with the remaining scenes and planned to do them herself.
After all, the male characterâs emotional reactions were all shown through silent shots without any dialogue, so it didnât matter who filmed it.
So, after packing up the equipment, Jiang Wan leaned in and gave Lin Shen a peck on the cheek.
"Junior, youâve worked so hard these past few days~ Thank you!"
"It was really tough."
Lin Shen said, feigning exhaustion as he stretched his neck and shoulders, even furrowing his brow.
This made Jiang Wan break into a knowing smile.
With her high EQ, she obviously understood what Lin Shen meant: he didnât think a simple kiss was enough of a reward.
âIn that case...â
"How about you show me around your place?"
Jiang Wan said with a grin as she took Lin Shenâs arm.
"Iâm curious to see just how luxurious the apartments in this complex are."
"Alright."
Lin Shen led Jiang Wan into the elevator and up to his floor. The moment he opened the door to apartment 2102, her beautiful, expectant eyes lit up completely.
The luxury of the sprawling flat before her truly exceeded her imagination.
Gleaming marble slabs with perfectly matched veining, a luxurious black-and-white color scheme, an open-concept kitchen and dining area.
Every detail, from the furniture to the decor, stirred something deep inside Jiang Wan, suddenly awakening a yearning and anticipation for her own future. A brilliant light danced in her beautiful eyes.
âItâs exactly like the homes of those CEO male leads in TV dramas!â
"Itâs so beautiful..."
"Come on in."
Lin Shen said with a smile, but Jiang Wan stood at the doorway, looking a little hesitant.
"Shouldnât I change into slippers?"
"Iâll just have the robot vacuum clean up later."
The real reason Lin Shen said this was because he had just moved in and hadnât prepared any guest slippers.
Jiang Wan stepped cautiously inside, looking around everywhere like a curious child.
Finally, her gaze landed on the spacious balcony, and she slowly walked toward it.
The 270-degree panoramic floor-to-ceiling windows immediately drew the eye. Several seamless panes of ultra-clear glass, each seven or eight meters long, acted like a giant picture frame, perfectly capturing the city skyline and the ceaseless flow of traffic below.
It was evening, and the deep orange sunset stained the city in layers of color, settling into a warm, grayish-purple near the buildings.
The glass curtain walls of the skyscrapers and the surface of the river reflected the twilight like shattered gold, making the scenery shimmer and sway.
"Itâs so beautiful!"
This was the second time Jiang Wan couldnât help but exclaim in awe, an inexplicable sense of joy blooming in her heart.
"It must be wonderful to see this view every day."
"It is."
Lin Shen hugged Jiang Wan from behind and whispered affectionately in her ear.
"Youâre the first girl to see this view."
If he didnât count Shen Yun and Wang Li, what Lin Shen said was technically true.
But Jiang Wan obviously wasnât that easy to fool. She turned her head to look at him, a smile playing on her lips.
"Are you sure? Your beautiful female boss has never been here?"
"Never."
Lin Shen said with a serious face. He really couldnât understand why Jiang Wan was so fixated on mentioning Qin Yuenan.
The two of them had never even met, and they didnât even know each otherâs names.
But the smell of gunpowder was already starting to thicken in the air.
âIs this what a Chaotic Scene is like?â
An ominous feeling crept into Lin Shenâs heart, especially after seeing Jiang Wanâs smile. It was still gentle, but carried a profound meaning that made him feel completely unsure of himself.
"Really?"
"Donât you believe me, senior?"
