The renovations on the dog cafe were nearly complete.
These three locations were the cornerstones of Lin Shen’s plan to conquer Modu’s pet cafe market.
Of course, as the number of cafes grew, management would inevitably become more complicated and troublesome.
Therefore, Lin Shen planned to start hiring.
The night before last, after receiving a list of email addresses from Qin Yuenan, he had immediately sent interview invitations to all the people who wanted to jump ship.
The interviews were scheduled for this morning. Even though it was a workday, the location was set for the 14th floor of Huamao Mansion.
Being so close, many Pet Guardian Home employees would surely find excuses to come up for an interview.
After all, with an offer of 1.2 times their current salary and incredible benefits, no working-class person could refuse such a temptation.
GURGLE GURGLE—!
Lin Shen rinsed his mouth and spat out the water. Just then, Zheng Yanfei walked in, rubbing her sleepy eyes.
She was wearing an oversized men’s pajama top. Even with all the buttons done, one of her smooth, fair shoulders was still exposed.
And on the bottom, she was only wearing underwear, revealing a pair of fair, delicate, and silky legs from beneath the hem.
This "boyfriend shirt" look was quite appealing to Lin Shen. He smiled and made room for Zheng Yanfei.
"You’re up so early?"
"Good morning, Brother. You’re up early too."
Zheng Yanfei didn’t stand beside Lin Shen. Instead, she squeezed into the narrow gap between him and the sink, brushing her teeth and washing her face in front of him, feeling a wave of sweetness in her heart.
’This feels just like we’re living together!’
’This is pure bliss!’
"Brother, there’s something else I forgot to talk to you about."
Zheng Yanfei looked at Lin Shen through the mirror, her words muffled as she brushed her teeth.
"I told my aunt about you, and she wants to meet you. When are you free, Brother?"
"Maybe some other time. I’m really busy with work lately."
Lin Shen answered noncommittally. By looking down slightly, he could see the wonderful view down the collar of her top.
The pajama top was thin, and her perky bottom kept rubbing against him.
The contact sent a sudden surge of heat through Lin Shen.
The corner of his mouth curled up. He wrapped his arms tightly around Zheng Yanfei from behind, his hands slithering like nimble loaches down her collar and into her pajamas. She gasped, her hands bracing against the sink as she leaned forward, her body instantly going soft.
"Brother, stop messing around~ I have a class this morning!"
"Don’t you have an 8 AM class? It’s only six. We can leave at seven and still not be late."
"But..."
Zheng Yanfei, blushing, was about to say something more, but Lin Shen cupped her soft cheeks and turned her head to meet his in a passionate kiss.
She glanced aside and could see the steamy reflection in the mirror: Lin Shen holding her in his arms, kissing her wantonly.
This made her feel incredibly embarrassed, but also thrilled.
Truthfully, Lin Shen had wanted to let Zheng Yanfei off the hook, but he couldn’t help it. She was as sweet and delicious as a little cake.
Most men would find it hard to resist such unintentional cuteness, so he would just have to indulge himself at her expense.

At 10 AM, on the third floor of Huamao Mansion, was the East China Branch of Pet Guardian Home.
As usual, Sun Mingli went to patrol the office area after her meeting, only to find many empty desks in the marketing and operations teams.
This made her frown. She quickly called over a supervisor to ask what was going on.
"Where are the employees from your department?"
"President Sun, some went to the restroom, some are in meetings, and others are coordinating with other departments."
"They should be at their desks during work hours, not running around."
After her reprimand, Sun Mingli didn’t think much of it.
After all, marketing and operations were indeed the two busiest departments in the company. It was normal to not see people at their desks.
However, unbeknownst to her, this group of people, without any discussion among themselves, had all shown up on the 14th floor of Huamao Mansion as if by some unspoken agreement, ready for their interviews with Shennan.
When everyone saw that their fellow applicants were all familiar faces, they were exceptionally surprised and started asking each other what was going on.
"Wang! What are you doing here?"
"Huh? Team Lead? I received an interview invitation from Shennan, so I came. Why are you here too...?"
"Same reason as you. And you, kid, didn’t you say you were going to work at Pet Guardian Home until you retired? I just praised you for your hard work in yesterday’s meeting, and today you’re here interviewing with another company!"
"Aren’t you doing the same thing, Team Lead...?"
"Am I the same as you? ’A wise bird chooses its branch.’ I have extensive work experience. Isn’t it normal for me to jump ship?"
