Chapter 206: First Visit to the Chen Family

~7 min read 1,389 words

The tranquility of early morning was gently broken by the first ray of sunlight; like a tender painter, it outlined the blue sky, white clouds, and all newly born things with golden brushstrokes.

The sleeping city began to awaken.

Hearing Wu Yue'er say this, Shen Yan awkwardly rubbed his nose and changed the subject: "Have you had breakfast? Do you want to buy something on the side of the road?"

Wu Yue'er replied in a muffled voice, "I've eaten." She could only try her best not to think about such things; otherwise, sooner or later, she would be angered into illness.

Who told her to fall in love with someone she shouldn't have?

Shen Yan skillfully changed the subject again, praising her for looking better and better lately, saying even without makeup she was as beautiful as a celestial being. Wu Yue'er was immediately overjoyed, unable to help but touch her own little face, beginning to indulge in self-admiration.

"Shanni and the others all say the same, asking what skincare products I use and if I'm wearing makeup, when I clearly went out bare-faced."

Shen Yan controlled the steering wheel with one hand and let the other fall onto her thigh, which was wrapped in black silk; the texture was somewhat thick, but the feel was quite good.

He said triumphantly: "It seems I've been nourishing you well; look at this little face, so pink, tender, and full of vitality."

"Go on!" Wu Yue'er spat lightly, thinking to herself that it might actually be true.

Beautiful women are often piled up with money; in the past, most of the money she earned was spent on clothes and cosmetics. But ever since she got together with Shen Yan, she hadn't even used much skincare, yet she was radiant every day.

It really is absurd!

No wonder they say men are the best skincare products for women.

During the casual chat, Wu Yue'er asked Shen Yan what business he was going to Shanghai for. Shen Yan replied he was going to talk business with Chen Jun. Wu Yue'er was slightly stunned: "You know what Shanni's father does?"

"I heard about it by chance. He has a computer science background, later became the president of an internet company, and now works in the investment field. His net worth is estimated to be over one billion."

Wu Yue'er's eyes widened larger than eggs. Although she had guessed it before, the moment it was truly confirmed, she still couldn't help but be greatly shocked.

Moreover, Chen Jun's capabilities were even more impressive than she had imagined.

"Would such a big boss bother with you?" Wu Yue'er looked suspicious.

Shen Yan pinched her thigh and said mysteriously: "He is impressive, but I am not an ordinary person either."

Wu Yue'er was stunned for a long while, a guess surging in her heart. To be able to talk business with such a big boss, what kind of net worth did Shen Yan have?

Another billionaire?

This man liked to keep everything hidden. She had originally thought she had figured out Shen Yan's background, but she hadn't expected that what she saw was still only the tip of the iceberg.

She curiously asked Shen Yan just how rich he was. Shen Yan smiled calmly and said: "Don't worry, ensuring you live a life without worries for the rest of your life is no problem."

If they weren't in the car, Wu Yue'er would have already pounced into his arms and kissed him wildly.

My god!

Everyone went through nine years of compulsory education, so why is your lumbar disc so prominent?

After a two-and-a-half-hour drive, the car stopped at the entrance of a shopping mall near the top-tier luxury residence "Tomson Riviera." Shen Yan said to Wu Yue'er: "You go stroll around the mall first; I'll come find you when I'm done with my business."

Wu Yue'er obediently agreed. Before getting out of the car, she kissed Shen Yan on the face again and playfully told him to hurry up, or if he came too late, she would run off with someone else.

"This girl!" Shen Yan touched his cheek with amusement, then headed straight for Tomson Riviera.

That's right! The Chen family lived inside the top-tier luxury residence "Tomson Riviera." Tomson Riviera is located in the core area of the Lujiazui Financial and Trade Zone in the Pudong New Area of Shanghai, adjacent to the Huangpu River, and possesses a unique geographical location.

The residential complex was strictly controlled. After registering detailed information at the security guard station, Shen Yan was finally able to enter this high-end residential area, which was shaded by green trees, filled with the fragrance of flowers, and resembled an urban oasis.

It is reported that the current housing price in this complex is 130,000 per square meter, and the smallest unit is 430 square meters, which calculates to over 50 million.

Luxury cars could be seen everywhere in the underground parking lot: Rolls-Royces, Bentleys, Ferraris, Lamborghinis; the cheapest ones were Mercedes E-classes, with on-the-road prices approaching 500,000.

By comparison, Shen Yan's BMW 3 Series was simply not presentable.

It is worth mentioning that the complex places great emphasis on privacy and security; without a password or fingerprint, one cannot even take the elevator, so Shen Yan had to call Chen Jun.

Before long, the elevator door opened, and the person who appeared before his eyes was actually Chen Shanni.

With shoulder-length brown-pink hair, she looked bright and generous. She was draped in a camel-colored cashmere coat and wore black ankle boots, making her look both fashionable and elegant.

"Oh! So you came home." Shen Yan was stunned for a moment, then immediately revealed a warm smile.

Chen Shanni elegantly tucked a strand of hair behind her ear and said softly: "I came back last night. Let's go, I'll take you home to take a look."

In fact, she originally had no intention of coming home, but upon learning that Shen Yan would be visiting, she worried something might happen and specifically ran back.

Arriving at the 28th floor, one could see that the resident's door was a purple-copper carved armored door, very sturdy; it was said that even bullets could not penetrate it.

Walking into the Chen home, the first thing that caught the eye was the spacious and bright living room. The ceiling was over three meters high, and a gorgeous crystal chandelier hung in the center, shining brilliantly. Sunlight shone in from the huge floor-to-ceiling windows, illuminating the entire space.

The floor was covered with marble tiles, the surface as smooth as a mirror, reflecting the exquisite furnishings in the room.

At this very moment, Chen Jun was leaning comfortably on the sofa reading a newspaper. Noticing Shen Yan enter, he greeted him very kindly: "Little Shen is here. Welcome to our home as a guest."

Shen Yan smiled, calmly handed over a red gift bag, and said softly: "It's my first time visiting, and I didn't know what Uncle Chen likes, so I bought some tea leaves. I hope you like them."

"Look at you, you came, so why bring gifts?" Chen Jun complained with his mouth, but his face showed even greater smiles.

He had originally thought that a young man who hadn't seen much of the world would act timid and cautious upon arriving at such a high-end and luxurious residence. Now it seemed he had underestimated the other's bearing.

Not bad, not bad! Much stronger than he was back in the day!

At this time, Chen's mother, Wei Wenli, walked out from the back room carrying a plate of fruit, also greeting Shen Yan warmly and telling him not to be reserved.

"Thank you, Auntie!" Shen Yan responded politely.

After simple pleasantries, Shen Yan stated the purpose of his visit: "Uncle Chen, after our last exchange, I had some thoughts about the mobile phone field. I wonder if it's convenient for you to talk about it now?"

"Oh?" A flash of insight crossed Chen Jun's eyes, then immediately vanished.

So the crux was here!

He nodded slightly, "Come with me, let's go to the study to talk in detail."

The two had just prepared to stand up when they heard Chen Shanni suddenly say: "Shen Yan, you don't mind if I listen in, do you?"
