Chapter 435: Chapter 213: The Phone
A faint smile played on his lips.
—
「12:00 AM.」
SHHHHHH—!
The sound of a shower came from the bathroom. Through the fogged glass door, the silhouette of a curvaceous, graceful young housewife could be faintly seen.
Meanwhile, Lin Shen was sprawled out on the bed, resting up.
He picked up his phone to check the progress on his conquest of Lin Ping.
Sure enough, he’d done it.
[Lin Ping:]
[Mission: Help Lin Ping complete her revenge plan (Complete)]
[Reward: Conquest Progress +10% (Current: 130%, Maxed Out), Social Skills +20%, Management Skills +20%, Learning Ability +20%]
[Reward: 200,000 Cash]
[Congratulations on the full conquest of Lin Ping! (Future mission rewards will no longer include Conquest Progress). Please claim your Final Reward Package!]
[Construction Bank: Your account ending in 7946 received a deposit of 460,000 on September 18 at 12:01 AM. Current balance: 25,100,000.]
Staring at the bank alert, Lin Shen sank into contemplation.
’Looks like different relationships give different rewards. There’s a distinction between a lover and a friend.’
’Shen Yun’s rewards were focused on improving her figure and skin, clearly meant to satisfy my physical desires.’
’But Lin Ping’s rewards, on the other hand, were professional skills. Is the system trying to get her to help me with my career?’
When Lin Shen opened the Final Reward Package, he realized he was spot on.
Just like with Shen Yun, a 3D projection of Lin Ping appeared, perfectly capturing her buxom figure in realistic detail.
[Appearance Score: 5]
[Figure Score: 7 (6+1, Thanks to the Host’s tireless ’nourishment,’ Lin Ping’s skin has grown more delicate and her figure more gracefully voluptuous, perfectly accentuating the sexy physique of a young housewife.)]

[Abilities Score: 6 (3+3, Though once an ordinary person, with the system’s help she has gradually discovered her innate talent for handling interpersonal relationships and gained solid experience managing the Cat Cafe.)]
’So the scores can go up!’
This came as a surprise to Lin Shen. He continued reading the remaining information.
[Abilities Overview: Lin Ping is gentle and meticulous, excels at interpersonal relationships, and has extensive experience in managing and operating a pet business. Her diligent and serious work ethic makes her a crucial link between the Host’s future commercial empire and its customers.]

[Mission Overview: Three’s Company]
Huh?
Seeing the mission overview, Lin Shen shot up in bed.
’Such a simple saying, yet it’s the ultimate dream of countless men!’
’Maybe it’s time to put that on the agenda?’
Lin Shen’s mind suddenly kicked into gear.
’The little girl has already agreed, anyway. And Lin Ping won’t be an issue.’
CLICK—!
Just as Lin Shen was contemplating his next move, Lin Ping, fresh from her shower, stepped out of the bathroom.
Her hair was wrapped in a towel, and a bathrobe concealed her body, revealing only her pale, elegant neck and toned calves. She looked as fresh and pure as a lotus blossom emerging from the water.
Under a man’s care and affection, Young Housewife Ping was gradually revealing her most alluring side.
"President Lin~"
Lin Ping untied her bathrobe and climbed onto the bed. She came to Lin Shen’s side, lifting the covers to snuggle into his embrace.
"What are you thinking about so deeply?"
"I was thinking about setting up a customer service center for the company."
Lin Shen smiled, wrapping an arm around Lin Ping’s shoulders.
"I’m going to have you manage that department when it’s set up."
Huh?
’Put me in charge?’
Lin Ping looked up at Lin Shen, surprised. Seeing the mix of determination and tenderness in his eyes, she quickly said,
"I’ve never done anything like that before. What if I mess things up for you..."
"No one is born with experience,"
Lin Shen said with a laugh.
"If you don’t know something, you learn. If you don’t understand, you ask. Failure isn’t what’s scary. What’s scary is being too afraid to even try. I’m confident you can handle this position."
Since the system had enhanced Lin Ping’s professional skills, Lin Shen naturally had to develop them. He wanted her to be more than just a trophy housewife who only knew how to please him in bed; he wanted her to be a woman who could take center stage and display her own personal Charm.
Lin Ping was smart enough to understand his good intentions. Deeply moved, she began kissing his face and chin, a gesture of both gratitude and submission.
"President Lin, thank you~"
"You’re welcome."
A slight smile played on Lin Shen’s lips as he seized the opportunity to make a request of his own.
"If you really want to thank me, there’s something I want to ask. Will you agree to it?"
"After all we’ve done, is there anything I wouldn’t agree to?"
Lin Ping said coyly. But when Lin Shen whispered in her ear, her expression faltered.
’That’s... so embarrassing!’
The mere thought of it made Lin Ping’s cheeks burn, a faint blush spreading across her face.
Seeing her conflicted expression, Lin Shen asked with a grin.
"No?"
"I can! Of course I can!"
Lin Ping would never refuse a request from Lin Shen. She had only hesitated because she was trying to figure out a way to make the whole thing less humiliating for herself.
’Maybe I should just try to act a little more normal when it happens.’
’I just wonder what the other person is like...’
"Um... can I ask you something, if it’s not too bold?"
When Lin Shen nodded, Lin Ping asked tentatively, her face full of bashfulness.
"Is that person your girlfriend, President Lin?"
"Not exactly."
A smile played on Lin Shen’s lips.
"She’s my lover, just like you. She’s just a bit... timid. So I thought I’d bring you in to keep each other company."
