The memories of the past three years began to flick through Lin Shen’s mind like a flipbook from his childhood.
Renting an apartment for the first time, cooking for the first time, buying a new phone with his first paycheck, not going home for the holidays for the first time...
All sorts of memories came flooding back like a tidal wave.
Lin Shen sat on the sofa, looking around. He sat there quietly by himself for a long time.
He had thought he would be happy and excited about moving into his new home.
But in reality, he felt a profound sense of loss.
’Is this that nostalgic feeling all guys get?’
Lin Shen wasn’t quite sure. His thoughts drifted until his phone rang.
"Hey! Bro! You done yet? I’ve been waiting downstairs for you for over ten minutes."
"Coming now."
Lin Shen hung up, got up from the living room, and glanced back at the rental apartment one last time before walking out the door.
SLAM—!
Locking the security door, Lin Shen let out a long, heavy sigh.
’Time to say goodbye to the past, get my head right, and welcome my new life!’
「12:30 PM.」
The moving company’s small truck pulled up on time near the main gate of Sunac Binjiang No.1 Courtyard.
The driver was a bit baffled when he arrived at the destination.
’Where in the world have I come to?’
The driver had been a mover for over a decade, and in his experience, this was the move with the most drastic change in scenery.
From a small, shabby, run-down place in a remote suburb to a luxury residential complex in downtown Modu.
’Did that young fella win the lottery?’
’How can the difference between his old place and his new one be so huge?’
After the driver got out of the truck, Shen Yun and Wang Li, who had been waiting at the gate, came over to greet him.
"Sir, you’re here. Where is President Lin?"
’President Lin?’
The driver was stunned. He couldn’t connect such a respectful title with the young man who had just been living in that rental apartment.
’Don’t tell me I’ve got the wrong client?’
Just as the driver was about to ask something, a solid black Jaguar XFL pulled up behind the small truck and honked twice.
"Let’s go, sir."
Seeing that Lin Shen had arrived, Wang Li and Shen Yun guided the driver to Building 8.
Downstairs, four burly men in tank tops had been waiting for some time.
Just as they were preparing to flex their muscles and help move the luggage, they were stunned to see only a few items inside the truck’s cargo bed.
’This is all?’
It wasn’t just the four burly men who stared at each other blankly; Shen Yun and Wang Li were also taken aback.
But Lin Shen got out of his car, walked over, and explained with a smile.
"The new house is fully furnished, so I didn’t bother moving some of the furniture. I just left it at the old place."
"You’re so easygoing, President Lin."
Wang Li praised him, then directed the burly men to start moving the luggage.
Meanwhile, Shen Yun swayed her hips as she walked to Lin Shen’s side, giving him a seductive smile.
"I’ve already registered your license plate with the gatehouse. When you have a moment, please fill in your personal information in the Sunac Binjiang No.1 Courtyard owner’s app."
"Okay."
Lin Shen gazed at the beautiful, mature woman beside him and blinked.
It seemed she had deliberately dressed up today.
On top, she wore a pure black, sleeveless halter top with a sexy lace pattern along the neckline, adorned with a jeweled necklace that made her look exceptionally alluring.
On the bottom, she wore a matching form-fitting skirt, paired with black stockings and high heels that accentuated her graceful figure.
Her makeup was also more exquisite than the light makeup she wore last time, like a peacock spreading its tail, showing off her mature yet well-preserved charm.
"You haven’t had lunch yet, have you?"
Shen Yun said with a beaming smile.
"How about I treat you to a private dinner here?"
"Okay."
