Financial freedom starts with cracked apps.

Room 1203, Building 5, Anxi Garden.

In the master bedroom, Lin Ping was startled by her mother's words, and her beautiful eyes widened slightly.

Does Lin Shen have a child?
Is this reasonable?

This is unreasonable!

I already have An'an, what will An'an think if I have another child?
If Lin Ping's mind hadn't quite transitioned from being love-struck due to her excessive love for Lin Shen, then her urgent desire to have a child with Lin Shen might be a possibility.

But later, after thinking about it, she realized that this matter couldn't be decided by her alone.

There's also An'an at home.

Although she's not very old, she's reached an age where she should be sensible.

If we were to add another person to the family, we would have to ask for her opinion.

If she agrees, then everyone will be happy.

If she doesn't agree, then Lin Ping will have to continue trying to persuade her.

Therefore, when her mother asked her to have a child with Lin Shen, her first reaction was hesitation.

Because she didn't yet understand An An's attitude.

But Zhao Ya thought she didn't want to have children, so she earnestly advised her against it.

“Ah Ping, you can’t go wrong by listening to your mother on this matter.”

"What kind of person is Lin Shen? In his early twenties, he founded Shennan Pet Industry, the company you work for. Although I don't know how influential this company is, I can tell from what you said."

"In just a few months, the company has expanded to more than 100 people, which shows that Lin Shen is capable and has a lot of capital."

"Plus, he's young and handsome, so he probably has plenty of women around him! Even though you're in a relationship, as he gets older, he might just dump you one day!"

"Therefore, if you want to keep Lin Shen's love for a long time, then have a child with him and use the child to keep him."

"Don't be fooled by the fact that men don't want to get married these days. In fact, their love for their children is no less than that for their mothers, and may even be greater."

“Especially for someone like Lin Shen who has achieved success in his career, he has money and power, but what he lacks is a family and children!”

Faced with her mother's admonition, Lin Ping avoided eye contact.

"Mom, let me think about this some more."

What are you still thinking about?

Zhao Ya was clearly disappointed in him.

"You're already Lin Shen's mistress, what are you still considering? Besides, you're so old, the hardship of childbirth will double in less than a year!"

"That's why everyone says this now: either don't have children, or have them early and take advantage of your youth to quickly regain your physical advantages."

"Mom, this is not something I can decide."

Seeing that her mother seemed somewhat bewitched, Lin Ping quickly spoke softly, her tone filled with helplessness.

"Shouldn't we ask An'an about this first? How would she feel if there were more people in the family?"

"Secondly, Mr. Lin doesn't want me to have children, that's the most crucial thing."

what?
Zhao Ya was momentarily stunned.

"Why? Doesn't he want children?"

"It's not my turn."

Lin Ping lowered her head, looking somewhat forlorn.

"Leaving aside his official girlfriend, President Qin, there are probably four or five women around him who want to have his children."

"Given my status and position, if President Lin were to have the first son of the Lin family, it would probably be President Qin, not me."

"..."

These words made Zhao Ya frown slightly and fall into deep thought.

Yes!

The larger the family group, the more stringent the requirements for identity.

Given Lin Shen's personality, it's likely that A Ping won't be the one to give birth to his first child.

but……

"You can do it secretly."

Zhao Ya quietly came up with an idea.

"When you're doing that kind of thing with Lin Shen, poke a hole in the Smurf's penis. If you're taking a pill, secretly hold it in your mouth and then spit it out when you have a chance."

"Mom, this is a terrible idea you saw in those TV dramas."

Lin Ping was speechless. She never expected her mother to come up with such a terrible idea, and she was furious.

"I'm your daughter! How could you let your daughter do such a despicable thing?!"

"Isn't this the path you chose?"

Zhao Ya felt very wronged when she saw that Lin Ping blamed her.

"If you were with an ordinary person, would I say that? Anyone can live an ordinary life! But you love Lin Shen!"

"Do you think your statuses are equal? ​​Don't be fooled by how good he is to you now; he might just dump you one day. Don't come crying to me then, saying you weren't prepared."

"Mom, you know that Mr. Lin isn't that kind of person."

Lin Ping said angrily.

"I've already risen to the position of customer service manager at Shennan. Even if he doesn't like me anymore, he won't abandon me because of work!"

"Men are all the same."

Seeing that she couldn't persuade Lin Ping, Zhao Ya immediately gave her a choice.

"So, do you think you want to have a child with Lin Shen?"

"Of course I want to!"

Lin Ping answered without hesitation, then sighed softly.

"However, I still need to discuss this with President Qin and the others."

discuss?

Lin Ping's words were quite eye-opening for Zhao Ya, leaving her somewhat confused.

No, do people from large families all have such extravagant lifestyles?
Do you have to consult with other women before having a child?
"alright."

Seeing that the situation was more complicated than she had imagined, Zhao Ya sighed and waved her hand.

"It's up to you, but let me make this clear first, you need to make plans as soon as possible."

"Don't worry, Mom, I know."

Lin Ping clung to Zhao Ya's arm and said coquettishly. Just then, her cell phone rang.

It was Xu Lei calling.

"Ms. Lin Ping."

Xu Lei said softly.

"I'm downstairs at your place."

"Okay, I'm coming down now."

After hanging up the phone, Lin Shen gave Zhao Ya a big hug and said softly.

"Mom, I'm leaving now. I'll have to trouble you to take care of An'an for a while."

"fine."

Zhao Ya said leisurely.

"Mom is retired now and has nothing to do, so it's only right that she stays home to take care of the child. Besides, An'an is such a good girl, I don't need to put in much effort. You go and have fun."

"Ah."

Lin Shen said goodbye to his mother, hugged An An one last time, said a few words, and then took his suitcase downstairs.

At this moment, the familiar Maybach S680 had already parked downstairs in the residential area.

After Lin Ping got out of the car, Xu Lei got out and opened the trunk.

After all, aside from being Lin Shen's lover, Lin Ping is the customer service manager of Shennan, so Xu Lei is naturally very polite to her.

"Ms. Lin Ping, is this all you brought?"

"Ah."

Lin Ping smiled slightly.

"Xiao Xu, thank you for your hard work. Where is General Manager Lin?"

"He's waiting for you at the hotel."

After Lin Ping got into the passenger seat, Xu Lei, who was in the driver's seat, hesitated for a moment before speaking softly.

"The reason I came to pick you up so late is because I went to pick up another girl."

"I know, that female college student, right?"

Although Lin Ping pretended to be indifferent, she still felt a little resentful. "Did President Lin send you to pick her up first?"

"Yes."

As a woman, Xu Lei was quick-witted and understood why Lin Ping had asked that question.

It's about comparing who holds more weight in President Lin's heart.

If you said that you picked up Zheng Yanfei first, it means that President Lin prefers her.

This made Xu Lei quite amused.

Lin Ping is over thirty years old, but her mind is still like that of a girl in her twenties, and she likes to be jealous.

However, maintaining a youthful mindset helps prevent skin aging.

Moreover, in Xu Lei's view, who was picked up first and who was picked up later did not mean that President Lin preferred whom. It was simply that President Lin felt that Lin Ping was more likely to accept the "three of them together".

Of course, Lin Ping herself was well aware of Lin Shen's reasons for doing this, but she was still a little disappointed.

"Really? How long have you been taking her to the hotel?"

"It's been about an hour."

Xu Lei considered her words carefully before speaking softly.

"Ms. Lin Ping, do you know that girl?"

"It was just a brief encounter."

Lin Ping was a little embarrassed to talk about how she and Lin Shen had already served each other in bed, so she changed the subject.

"Xiao Xu, do you want to come to Hainan with us?"

"Ah."

Xu Lei nodded, which made Lin Ping stare at her with a very complicated expression.

As a woman, how could she not understand women?

Lin Ping could tell from Xu Lei's eyes alone that she had feelings for Lin Shen...

After hesitating for a long time, Lin Ping finally revealed the truth.

"Xiao Xu, you like President Lin, don't you?"

!! ?
These words sent a shiver down Xu Lei's spine.

In front of Zheng Yanfei, she could openly admit her relationship with Lin Shen.

But she was a little hesitant in front of Lin Ping.

After all, Lin Ping held a higher position at work, so she was slightly superior to her.

However, Lin Ping is very gentle in her dealings with people and rarely gets angry with those around her.

Therefore, seeing Xu Lei pursing her lips and falling silent, she smiled.

"Don't worry about whether I'll get angry. Just say it. It's okay. I know how charming Mr. Lin is. As his secretary who talks to him often, it's normal for you to develop some romantic feelings for him."

"Um……"

Since Lin Ping had said so, Xu Lei naturally agreed.

"I really like President Lin."

"Right?"

Faced with Xu Lei's composure, Lin Ping felt no anger or jealousy, but rather a strange sense of pride.

After all, the more women like Lin Shen, the more it proves that her choice was right.

Although the competition is fierce, I have some trump cards up my sleeve!

As long as I diligently perform my duties as the customer service manager of Shennan, Mr. Lin will never abandon me.

Therefore, Lin Ping was confident, which is why she was overjoyed by the feelings expressed by Xu Lei.

"I knew it! Mr. Lin isn't very likable, is he?"

"That's true."

Xu Lei said with a hint of shyness.

After all, Lin Ping, who was speaking to her now, was not using the identity of Shennan Customer Service Manager, but rather the identity of President Lin's mistress.

In this way, their relationship was balanced.

Although the rivalry might lead to mutual animosity, Lin Ping has a good personality, and he is not worried about being retaliated against by her.

At worst, I'll just admit I'm inferior!

"So, how far has your relationship with President Lin progressed?"

Lin Ping gossiped like a best friend, and if outsiders were listening, they would never guess that she and Xu Lei's boyfriend were the same person.

They get along so well.

"Hmm...you kissed, didn't you?"

Xu Lei whispered, which surprised Lin Ping quite a bit.

"You haven't done 'that' with President Lin yet?"

Not yet.

When this matter was brought up, Xu Lei appeared shy on the surface, but in reality, she was filled with loneliness.

She actually longed to take her relationship with Lin Shen to the next level, so as to solidify her position by his side.

But they could never find an opportunity.

"President Lin is quite busy, I guess he doesn't have time."

"Then you need to be more proactive."

Lin Ping suggested.

"For example, if Mr. Lin is tired and wants to go home, you can go to his house with him and not leave."

"..."

Xu Lei found Lin Ping's suggestion quite unbelievable.

After all, if she kept pestering Lin Shen, Lin Ping would have far fewer opportunities to be alone with him.

Isn't this just creating more trouble for myself?
Xu Lei didn't dare to respond to that, and instead shifted the topic to Lin Ping.

"Ms. Lin Ping, is this how you won over Ms. Lin back then?"

No, that's not true.

Lin Ping didn't seem to mind telling Xu Lei the story of her relationship with Lin Shen; on the contrary, she seemed to be showing off.

"It was President Lin who took the initiative to provoke me. I couldn't resist and ended up having a relationship with him."

Eh?
This surprised Xu Lei quite a bit.

President Lin actually provoked Lin Ping?
This is practically the treatment a real girlfriend gets!
How did you do that?

Xu Lei asked curiously, but more than that, she was humbly seeking advice, hoping to learn some tricks from Lin Ping to win over Lin Shen.

Upon hearing this, Lin Ping's lips curled into a smug smile.

"Actually, we didn't do much. At the time, it seemed that Mr. Lin was in the early stages of Shennan's development and was looking for offline stores, so he found my store."

"When I saw him in the store, I felt my heart was pounding at 180 beats per minute! Mr. Lin was so handsome that I thought a celebrity had come to our store."

"After asking him more closely, I found out that he was just there to buy the shop."

“At that time, I had just divorced my ex-husband, and the store kept losing money after it was transferred to my hands. I was worried and didn’t know what to do. Then Mr. Lin was like my savior, pulling me out of despair.”

"At that moment, I fell completely in love with her."

Lin Ping spoke softly with a smile, her beautiful eyes brimming with happiness and sweetness.

"The subsequent developments went smoothly. At first, I was a bit reserved, but Mr. Lin was very enthusiastic and treated me very well, which led to my relationship with him..."

"That's good."

Xu Lei looked on with envy.

"I feel there is nothing happier than having President Lin take the initiative to pursue you."

"It's not something I'm pursuing."

Lin Ping tucked a stray hair behind her ear and spoke as if somewhat embarrassed.

"I just happened to hit on Mr. Lin's preferences."

What are your preferences?

Seeing Xu Lei's eyes light up, Lin Ping said shyly in a low voice.

"Is she a young married woman? Mr. Lin seems quite interested in my identity."

!! ?
These words startled Xu Lei, who suddenly felt a pang of regret.

I should have gotten married this morning too! (End of Chapter)
