"So, the formula for the pet food you’re producing—did you buy it from someone?"
"Lin Shen gave it to me."
Shen Yun knew what Qin Yuenan was worried about, so she smiled.
"Don’t worry, there won’t be any legal trouble. Lin Shen developed the formula himself."
Huh?
’Lin Shen developed it?’
Qin Yuenan looked surprised.
She had considered that Lin Shen might have bought the formula from someone else, and she had even considered that Shen Yun might have sold it to him. But she never in a million years imagined he had developed the formula himself!
In other words, comparing raw materials, balancing nutrients, and creating a flavor cats would find appealing—all things requiring specialized knowledge in biology and food science—Lin Shen knew how to do all that?
’He’s so multitalented!’
’He has this skill, so why did he never mention it back when we were coworkers?’
Qin Yuenan’s mind reeled. She felt that even after all this time with Lin Shen, she still didn’t know him well enough.
Seeing her look of disbelief, Shen Yun gave a gentle smile.
"To be honest, when I first heard that Shen had developed a proprietary pet food formula himself, I was just as surprised as you are now."
"I never expected that the chairman of Shennan would also possess such specialized technical skills."
"He’s incredibly capable. That’s the main reason I chose to partner with him. I’m certain he’s destined for success!"
Shen Yun leaned forward slightly, her captivating eyes shimmering with a startling brilliance.
Her unwavering support for Lin Shen deeply touched a soft spot in Qin Yuenan’s heart, causing her to let go of her animosity toward the beautiful, mature woman before her.
’As long as you admire Lin Shen too, we can be friends.’
"Thank you for appreciating Lin Shen."
Qin Yuenan took another sip of her coffee, her attitude much softer than at the beginning.
"I’m in charge of the company’s supply chain. From now on, you can contact me directly for anything related to it."
"Alright."
Shen Yun understood the subtext in Qin Yuenan’s words. It was nothing more than, ’You don’t need to bother Lin Shen anymore. Come to me for anything you need.’
’That won’t do at all!’
’If I don’t contact Lin Shen, how am I supposed to get closer to him?’
Of course, despite thinking this, Shen Yun decided she should probably reduce how often she chatted with Lin Shen. She would try to avoid more suggestive topics on WeChat and send fewer of those obviously tempting photos.
This way she could avoid giving Qin Yuenan any leverage.
Shen Yun picked up a grape and popped it into her mouth, changing the subject as she chewed.
"Since you’re in charge of the supply chain, when will Shennan Pet Food be launched on all platforms?"
"Let’s wait until your factory has converted a few more production lines."
Qin Yuenan said softly.
"If production can’t keep up, launching will only ruin the reputation we’ve worked so hard to build."
"Don’t worry about that. I’ve already had people convert eight production lines."
’Eight?’
’So fast?’
Seeing Qin Yuenan’s surprised expression, Shen Yun’s lips curved into a confident, triumphant smile.
"Three of them are for dry pet food, three are for wet pet food, and two are for pet treats."
"The daily production capacity for dry food is about 140 tons, wet food is about 50 tons, and for treats, because we have fewer workers right now, the output is only about 10 tons, but it can be increased to about 30 tons later."
"I wonder if that’s enough?"
"That’s enough."
Qin Yuenan nodded.
A medium, family-sized bag of dry pet food is only about 12 kilograms.
That meant the daily output from just those three lines was over ten thousand bags!
As for the wet food and treats, which were in lower demand, the output would be more than enough to meet Shennan’s current needs.
"Thank you."
Qin Yuenan’s original purpose for this meeting was to get an update on the pet food manufacturing situation.
If things seemed solid, she had planned to ask Shen Yun to convert more production lines to meet Shennan’s needs.
But retooling production lines required a significant investment and came with the risk of taking a loss.
Therefore, Qin Yuenan had been racking her brain for a way to persuade Shen Yun to expand their partnership.
But to her surprise, she had already done it!
’Could Lin Shen have told her in advance? Did he even pay for the retooling costs?’
Qin Yuenan’s expression softened considerably, and she was deeply impressed by Lin Shen’s advance planning.
’My boyfriend really is amazing!’
