’Since Lin Shen has so many girlfriends, he probably wouldn’t mind one more, right?’

Zheng Yanfei considered this silently, then after a moment’s thought, she offered a suggestion.

"If she’s the gentle, older-sister type, and a counselor too, you could get her a Van Cleef & Arpels pendant. It’s elegant and has class!"

"Jewelry, huh..."

Lin Shen wasn’t actually that interested in jewelry.

To be blunt, things like diamonds were just an "idiot tax" and a commercial scam cooked up by capitalists.

Compared to gold, they fell short by more than just a little bit.

But the value of an item couldn’t be judged on its intrinsic worth alone.

The additional sentimental value was also very important.

For example, the value of giving your mother a bouquet of carnations was far greater than giving 999 roses to a girl you were simping for.

After thinking it over, Lin Shen decided to take Zheng Yanfei’s advice. They went to the Van Cleef & Arpels counter on the fifth floor together.

"Hello, sir! And you, miss. Have you picked out a piece you’re interested in?"

The sales associate was very enthusiastic. When she saw Lin Shen walk in, she assumed he was buying jewelry for his companion and started speaking directly to Zheng Yanfei.

However, the little girl knew her place and seamlessly shifted the focus of the conversation back to Lin Shen.

"Brother, what’s your price range?"

"Around 200,000."

Since he didn’t particularly like jewelry, Lin Shen didn’t want to buy anything too expensive.

Besides, given Jiang Wan’s personality, she’d probably be thrilled even if he gave her a necklace that only cost a few hundred yuan.

Of course, he wasn’t actually going to give her something that cheap.

"Then I’d recommend this one." 𝚏𝐫𝚎𝗲𝕨𝐞𝐛𝕟𝚘𝐯𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝗺

Zheng Yanfei took over the sales associate’s duties and showed Lin Shen a Van Cleef & Arpels Flowerlace pendant.

It was an 18K white gold, diamond-studded sunflower design with five petals. It was noble and elegant, yet still very fashionable.

And at over 200,000, the price wasn’t too expensive.

Lin Shen thought it was quite nice, so without a second word, he swiped his card and bought it.

His decisiveness was a pleasant surprise for the sales associate.

’I’ve landed a big fish!’

Before leaving the Van Cleef & Arpels counter with his shopping bag, Lin Shen gave his name and phone number and, as a new VIP, successfully received a complimentary bracelet worth several thousand yuan.

’Nice!’

The corners of Lin Shen’s mouth curled up. He suddenly felt that the title of "ten-millionaire" was truly useful sometimes.

For luxury brands, VIP customers are their true gods.

To keep these "gods" in their favor, they usually offer plenty of benefits, discounts, and free gifts.

"It’s for you."

Lin Shen decisively gave the bracelet to Zheng Yanfei, who was overwhelmed by the gesture.

"Huh? Can I really accept this?"

"Mhm."

"Thank you, Brother!"

Zheng Yanfei didn’t feel the slightest bit of disappointment or sadness that the bracelet was a free gift. On the contrary, her heart pounded, and she was deeply moved.

Because this bracelet was from the Van Cleef & Arpels Sweet Alhambra collection—its chalcedony heart shape symbolized romance and love!

’I knew it! Lin Shen does have special feelings for me!’

MWUAH—!

Zheng Yanfei decisively hugged Lin Shen’s arm, stood on her tiptoes, and once again planted a kiss on him.

If they hadn’t been in such a crowded mall, she probably wouldn’t have aimed for his cheek, but for his lips.

"Brother, you’re so good to me~"

"Well, I can’t have you accompany me shopping for nothing."

To be honest, Lin Shen was a little amazed by the depth of Zheng Yanfei’s knowledge of luxury goods.

"I didn’t expect you to know so much about jewelry."

"Hehe."

Zheng Yanfei gave an embarrassed little laugh.

"My classmates are always showing off all the luxury gifts their boyfriends buy them. I just picked it up from being around them."

"I think you’re the one influencing others."

Lin Shen playfully tapped Zheng Yanfei’s nose. The intimate gesture made her pretty face blush, and her heart felt as sweet as honey.

"Aiya! I just like this stuff! This is the first time I’ve ever gotten so many gifts!"

"You’ve never received any before?"

Lin Shen raised an eyebrow.

"You’re so beautiful. There must be a lot of guys chasing you, right?"

"I’m not that beautiful, really."

Faced with Lin Shen’s praise, Zheng Yanfei lowered her head shyly, hugged his arm a little tighter, and huffed coquettishly.

"The guys who chase me are nowhere near as generous as you, Brother! Not only are they ugly, but they’re stingy too!"

"I rejected all their gifts, and then they started spreading nasty rumors among our classmates, saying I was cold and aloof, or that I was some rich guy’s sugar baby. They have such foul mouths!"

"Is that so."

As Lin Shen was quietly pondering this, he suddenly received a notification from the Goddess Conquest Manual on his Shuaiyang app.

[You have gifted a lover a bracelet from the Van Cleef & Arpels Sweet Alhambra collection. You have received a cashback reward of 4,300 yuan.]

Huh?

Lin Shen was slightly stunned.

’I can get cashback even after giving Zheng Yanfei a free gift?’

Holy shit!

’Isn’t this basically free money?!’

’It can even work like this?’

Lin Shen was shocked, but Zheng Yanfei continued with another suggestion.

"Brother, I don’t think a new university freshman needs especially expensive gifts. She just needs your company."

"After all, this is the stage of life when a person learns the most about the world."

"Instead of giving her gifts, why not take her traveling around Modu or the nearby cities? What do you think?"

"Okay."

Lin Shen thought about it and felt that the little girl really did have high emotional intelligence when it came to handling people and situations.

So he accepted her suggestion, planning to wait until Gu Wanqing came to Modu.

"Alright, now I’ll buy something for myself."

Since he was out shopping, he couldn’t neglect himself.

So, in the end, Lin Shen had two more high-end suits custom-made for himself to wear at important future occasions.
