Financial freedom starts with cracked apps.

This girl is quite smart.

Lin Shen couldn't help but smile.

It was obvious from Gu Wanqing's lowered head that she was still a little shy about such intimate contact.

So she found an excuse to cut her nails.

This way, she could both hide her shyness and do something within her power for her brother Lin Shen.

It’s the best of both worlds!
Of course, with Brother Lin Shen's emotional intelligence, he should be able to understand my hint, right?
While trimming Lin Shen's nails, Gu Wanqing would occasionally steal glances at Lin Shen, who was sitting in the driver's seat. She noticed that he was focused on driving after the green light came on and didn't seem to notice her.

"Then trouble you."

"it is good."

Gu Wanqing outwardly agreed, but inwardly she was filled with doubt.

Does Brother Lin Shen think I was just helping him trim his nails?

This left Gu Wanqing with a slight sense of disappointment at her unfulfilled expectations.

But it's okay, there's still plenty of time in the day.

So Gu Wanqing began to obediently trim Lin Shen's nails.

It has to be said that Lin Shen takes his image very seriously; you can tell from his nails that he carefully trimmed them before coming.

This earned her a lot of points in Gu Wanqing's eyes.

After all, no girl likes a sloppy boy. Even if a boy is of average appearance, as long as he is disciplined, exercises regularly, and is clean and tidy, he will be fine.

Even if a girl doesn't like it, she won't hate it too much.

Moreover, Lin Shen's appearance is far more than just clean.

After careful observation, Gu Wanqing discovered that not only was he handsome, but his hands were also very beautiful.

With pale, cool skin and well-defined bones, he exudes a strange sense of asceticism.

This was the first time Gu Wanqing had noticed Lin Shen's hands, and she immediately examined them repeatedly, unable to help but admire them from the bottom of her heart.

Lin Shen's hands are so beautiful!

No wonder I felt a strange sense of security when he held my hand.

Wow, it's so big!
Gu Wanqing compared her hand to Lin Shen's and found that hers was about a third smaller than his.

This is also what is often circulated online as the ideal hand size ratio between couples.

They are 20 centimeters apart in height and one-third apart in hand size.

They're a match made in heaven!
Gu Wanqing found Lin Shen's hands increasingly sexy, so she began to play with them in various ways, which left him somewhat amused and exasperated.

"Qingqing, are my hands fun to play with?"

"very nice!"

Gu Wanqing looked at Lin Shen, her beautiful eyes sparkling with an amazing brilliance.

"Brother Lin Shen, your hands are perfect for playing the piano!"

"Then I'll try to learn it when I have some free time."

Lin Shen casually agreed, then pulled his right hand away from Gu Wanqing's embrace.

Such restraint and demureness only made Gu Wanqing feel slightly resentful.

Am I really that unattractive?

Why do they touch my leg for a while and then not take it away?

snort!
Gu Wanqing gave a soft snort in her heart, but she quickly composed herself, determined not to waste the good atmosphere they had created for their date.

Immediately, she shook her little head, humming along to the rhythm of the car's music, and asked curiously.

"Brother Lin Shen, where are we going?"

"city center."

After all, the most fun places in Shanghai are all in the city center.

Lin Shen was at a loss as to where to go, so he sought advice from Gu Wanqing.

What do you want to do?

"Claw machine!"

Gu Wanqing excitedly suggested, her beautiful eyes blinking frequently, seemingly filled with anticipation.

"May I?"

"of course."

It's true that most girls love playing claw machines.

Lin Shen couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

He felt that buying something was more cost-effective than playing claw machines.

But girls like this process.

Claw machines and scratching lottery tickets have almost become must-do activities for girls when they go out shopping.

So Lin Shen took advantage of the time while waiting at the traffic light to search on his phone for fun claw machine arcades.

Ultimately, he chose CPCM.

Its full name is Cow Play Cow Moo, located on the 5th floor of Longemont Shopping Mall on Changning Road.

With a massive 700-square-meter space and over a hundred professional claw machines, it can be said to be the most luxurious claw machine arcade in Shanghai.

And most importantly, the dolls inside are all of very high quality.

Stitch, Strawberry Bear, Sanrio, Kuromi...

Each of them is a well-known IP in the world, and all of them are genuine.

Generally, top-tier, globally chain claw machines do not tamper with them.

After all, if customers find out, then the brand is no longer viable.

Therefore, Lin Shen decisively drove there, parked the car in the underground parking lot of the mall, and took Gu Wanqing's hand to take the elevator upstairs.

"Wow--!"

Standing at the store entrance, Gu Wanqing was amazed by the sheer number of claw machines in front of her. She excitedly took Lin Shen's arm and jumped around.

"Wow, it's huge! Brother Lin Shen, how long can we play here?"

"Play as long as you want."

Lin Shen chuckled and took Gu Wanqing's hand, leading her to the front desk to buy game tokens.

At one yuan each, it's a fairly affordable price.

Lin Shen bought a whole basket of five hundred at once, his face full of eagerness.

"Let's see how many we can catch."

"it is good."

Gu Wanqing looked up at Lin Shen with her sweet smile, which was very infectious.

People who came to stroll around the street were all amazed when they saw this very well-matched couple.

One is a tall, handsome man over 1.8 meters tall, and the other is a sweet and cute girl.

This height difference is absolutely amazing!
"Let's go."

Holding the game tokens he had bought, Lin Shen looked around at the dazzling array of game machines and asked curiously.

"Which one do you want first?"

"this!"

Gu Wanqing pointed excitedly at the claw machine not far away.

"I never expected to find this!"

?

After being pulled to the claw machine by Gu Wanqing, Lin Shen noticed that the dolls inside were light yellow.

Online, they are collectively known as "Nailong Laobiao".

The two look very similar in color, except that this doll appears to be a capybara.

"What's it called?"

"Lulu!"

Gu Wanqing leaned against the transparent glass, jumping for joy. Then she hugged Lin Shen's arm and shook it for a while. She blinked her beautiful eyes and looked at him expectantly.

"Brother Lin Shen, can you catch one for me? I want this one~"

"it is good!"

No boy can resist a girl's coquettish charm, especially when it comes from a top-tier sweet girl like Gu Wanqing.

When she uttered that soft, sweet voice, Lin Shen felt his heart melt and his whole body go weak.

Of course, their fighting spirit was also much higher.

So Lin Shen rubbed his hands together, eager to try it out, and used one coin to test the machine first.

For him, money is not an issue, so it's only a matter of time before he catches the doll.

The first time, Lin Shen chose a Lulu that was near the exit.

Moreover, its shape is relatively easy to catch, being long and narrow.

However, because the claws were too wobbly and the point of leverage was not found, it was impossible to even lift it up.

This made Gu Wanqing say with some regret, "Just a little bit short."

Much worse!
Lin Shen refused to give up and continued to insert coins, treating the first few times as a warm-up.

However, after trying it twice, he realized something was wrong.

The claw of this claw machine is too loose; it wobbles from side to side when it grabs a plush toy, and the retraction force is also weak.

This doesn't seem to be due to tampering with the system, but rather an old problem that has been encountered by many users.

Gu Wanqing also noticed something was wrong and couldn't help but complain.

"Why is this robotic claw so weak? Brother Lin Shen, should we get a new one? I think this machine is broken."

"Lulu is only available in this machine. Are you sure you want to change it?"

"what?"

Seeing Gu Wanqing's hesitant look, Lin Shen smiled and patted her head, then decisively called the shop owner over.

"Boss, is your machine broken?"

"Is it broken?"

The boss jogged over, pretended to inspect it, and then smiled.

"It seems this machine is designed this way. Why don't you get a different one?"

"Since you know it's faulty, why don't you replace it?"

Although Lin Shen's tone was gentle, it carried a certain kind of intimidation.

This made the boss break out in a cold sweat.

In fact, if it were an ordinary customer, he would definitely dismiss it with disdain, and might even think that the other party was there to cause trouble.

But Lin Shen is clearly no ordinary person!

Putting aside his extravagant purchase of 500 game coins without hesitation, his handsome appearance alone proves that he is no ordinary person.

Most importantly, his outfit was head-to-toe in designer brands, and he also wore a watch on his wrist that looked very expensive.

In addition, he was accompanied by a stunningly beautiful girl named Gu Wanqing. This combination of a handsome man and a beautiful woman is definitely extraordinary!
Maybe he's an internet celebrity or a rich kid.

Therefore, the boss did not dare to neglect it and directly found staff to repair and debug the machine.

In fact, many customers had already reported that the machine might be broken, but he had not repaired it.

It wasn't until Lin Shen mentioned it that he decided to find someone to repair it, fearing that being exposed would affect the reputation of his shop.

Lin Shen pulled Gu Wanqing to sit on the sofa and waited, and ordered two cups of TANINGTEA.

As the Chanel of the milk tea world, its delivery service is handled by dedicated personnel, and it can reach any location in Shanghai within 30 minutes.

If the delivery fails to meet the requirements, a full refund will be provided, which means the delivery speed is extremely fast.

TANINGTEA's signature product is Oriental Jasmine Wheel Cheese Tea.

It uses jasmine tea brewed for 6 hours cold-brewed, paired with Parmesan cheese.

A blend of salty and sweet flavors, with a delicate texture.

It's incredibly delicious.

Gu Wanqing was somewhat surprised when the store clerks, dressed in their own uniforms, came to deliver the takeout.

After all, she had never experienced this kind of delivery before.

It must be very expensive!

When Gu Wanqing saw the price tag of over one hundred yuan on the bag, she was truly stunned.

So expensive!

Can a cup of milk tea really cost this much?

"Taste it?"

Lin Shen handed a cup to Gu Wanqing, and after she inserted a straw and took a sip, her eyes instantly brightened, and she couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.

"Drink it well!"

"Right."

Lin Shen chuckled softly.

"I've bought their milk tea before, and it was pretty good."

"Did you discover it yourself, Brother Lin Shen?"

Gu Wanqing had some doubts.

After all, most guys don't pay much attention to milk tea shops, and she didn't even know there were such delicious milk tea shops.

But Lin Shen knew.

Maybe someone recommended it to him while he was on a date with another girl.

Gu Wanqing felt a little depressed when she thought about this.

Fortunately, Lin Shen seemed to have noticed her little scheme. He originally wanted to tell the truth, but after thinking about it again, he decided to tell a white lie.

“When I was working before, this store downstairs from my office opened, and I went in and bought a cup of their signature milk tea. I tried it and it tasted pretty good, so I recommended it to you.”

Of course, the actual situation was that Zheng Yanfei recommended it to me when we went out on a date.

After all, Little Green Tea is the most knowledgeable about these trendy snacks and milk tea shops.

However, Lin Shen did not tell Gu Wanqing about this.

After all, saying it out loud can be quite hurtful.

Moreover, Lin Shen knew that no matter what he said, Gu Wanqing would believe him unconditionally, making her very easy to fool.

Sure enough, when Lin Shen said that he had found the shop himself, Gu Wanqing was no longer upset, but instead praised him with a smile.

"Brother Lin Shen's taste is really good, it's delicious. Thank you for treating me to milk tea."

"fine."

Lin Shen smiled slightly. Although he felt a little guilty, there was nothing he could do. Sometimes, when you're in a relationship, you have to tell a few lies.

While the two were chatting, the staff fixed the claw machine.

Seeing this, Lin Shen got up and continued to help Gu Wanqing play the claw machine.

I have to say, the repaired claw machine is really useful.

Although they still hadn't caught the doll, there were several times when it had landed right at the edge of the exit, but unfortunately, they were just one step away from catching it and failed at the last hurdle.

Fortunately, Lin Shen remained calm.

If you can grab all these coins in just a few, wouldn't it be a waste of money?
Finally, with a relatively calm mindset, Lin Shen focused intently on operating the claw machine and eventually used more than twenty coins to win a Lulu.

The moment the doll fell into the entrance/exit, Gu Wanqing jumped up excitedly and clapped her hands, maximizing the emotional value she provided.

Wow! Brother Lin Shen, you're amazing!

"I made a mistake, otherwise I could have saved several coins."

Lin Shen half-squatted down, took Lulu out of the machine, and handed her to Gu Wanqing, teasingly.

Here, your Lulu.

"Hehe, Lulu, hehe..."

Gu Wanqing hugged Lulu with a look of fascination, rubbing her face against its soft body and burying it deep inside, then playing with it in various ways, seemingly unable to put it down.

Of course, she didn't forget who had put it there for her.

So Gu Wanqing looked around and, taking advantage of the fact that the other guests weren't paying attention to her, took the initiative to approach Lin Shen, stood on tiptoe, and kissed him on the cheek.

Although they had been doing it secretly, Gu Wanqing still felt a little shy in public, and her pretty face flushed with an alluring blush as she whispered her thanks.

"Brother Lin Shen, thank you~"

"You're welcome."

Lin Shen smiled and patted Gu Wanqing's head, then looked around.

"Now, what else do you want?"

I want that one!

Gu Wanqing pointed to the rabbit police officer doll in Zootopia not far away, and then said excitedly.

"Brother Lin Shen, let me catch it this time! I want to try."

"it is good."

So Lin Shen was pulled by Gu Wanqing to Lingwan's claw machine and tried to grab a doll like he had done before.

But after several attempts, I couldn't even manage to grab the doll, let alone get it into the exit.

This made Gu Wanqing very frustrated, and she pouted and said coquettishly.

"so hard."

"I'll teach you."

Seeing this, Lin Shen took the opportunity to walk directly behind Gu Wanqing, touched the back of her right hand and placed it on the joystick, while holding her left hand with his left hand and placing it on the button.

This intimate gesture made Gu Wanqing's heart race.

So close!

Because their actions at that moment were far too ambiguous.

Lin Shen pinned Gu Wanqing against the wall like he was against a claw machine from behind, his body pressed tightly against her back, his chin even resting on her forehead, and he could smell the fragrance of her hair with just a gentle sniff.

And this was precisely the effect Lin Shen wanted to achieve. (End of Chapter)
