Chapter 571: Chapter 276: Ferrari LaFerrari
Go easy?
Not a chance!
Lin Shen loved nothing more than holding Zheng Yanfei in his arms.
After all, when it came to this, the little girl was probably the best among all the women in Lin Shen’s life.
Qin Yuenan was rather cold and aloof, though she was much better now than at the beginning.
As for Jiang Wan, the gentle, older-sister type was so forward that Lin Shen found her a bit hard to handle.
Young Housewife Ping and Mature Woman Yun behaved similarly. Both were sultry to the bone, eager to display every ounce of their sexiness and charm for Lin Shen.
The only difference was that the former was usually gentle and virtuous in her daily life, creating a huge contrast.
The latter was a sexy, mature woman through and through.
Of course, compared to them, it was the little girl who provided Lin Shen with far more emotional value.
So, he pulled Zheng Yanfei tightly into his arms. With a wicked grin, like an old wolf charming a flock of sheep, he said,
"Don’t worry."
"You say that every time! You always lie to me!"
Zheng Yanfei clutched Lin Shen’s arm aggrievedly. She looked resentful on the surface, but inwardly, she was secretly delighted.
’This was her favorite way to seduce Lin Shen—by putting on a frail act!’
Every time Zheng Yanfei imagined that feeling, her legs would involuntarily go weak, to the point where she had to cling to Lin Shen’s arm for support.
But the more she held on, the more his distinct masculine scent stimulated her senses.
This was, in fact, a sign of physiological attraction.
Once you reached this level, you would even find yourself infatuated with and greedy for a man’s strangest scents.
At least, Zheng Yanfei was gradually starting to feel this way.
The longing from not having seen him in so long made her beautiful eyes slowly mist over. She couldn’t wait to go home with Lin Shen and be intimate with him.
Unfortunately, she would have to wait until the auction was over.
Taking Lin Shen’s arm, Zheng Yanfei walked back into the auction hall. The event was already halfway through.
"This necklace is a custom collaboration between Ferrari and Bulgari. Inspired by the body lines of the Ferrari SF90, it is inlaid with red spinel and diamonds. The pendant can be detached and worn as a Prancing Horse brooch. It also comes with a co-branded certificate of authenticity and was custom-made by the Bulgari High Jewelry workshop. The estimated starting bid is 300,000 RMB!"
After introducing the collection item on the big screen, the host immediately announced the start of the bidding.
The guests below began raising their paddles one after another. The atmosphere, despite the polite constraints, quickly became incredibly heated.
The price shot up from the starting bid of 300,000 to 600,000 yuan.
"Shen, aren’t you going to bid on this necklace?"
After they sat down in their seats, Zheng Yanfei whispered to Lin Shen curiously.
"I feel like it would go perfectly with your Ferrari SF90. Maybe if you gave it to Qin Yuenan, she’d be really happy."
"She doesn’t like jewelry."
Lin Shen smiled faintly.
"There’s something better at this auction."
’Oh?’
Upon hearing this, Zheng Yanfei started wondering.
’Don’t tell me Shen is interested in the last limited-edition Ferrari sports car?’
’That’s a new 2025 custom model worth twenty million!’
’Is Shen really that rich?’
’He can afford to spend so much on a car while also running a startup.’
Although Zheng Yanfei didn’t know much about startups, she definitely knew about money!
She usually spent about 50% of her living allowance on consumer goods.
’If I apply that same ratio, Shen must have at least several hundred million in his bank account, right?’
Zheng Yanfei snuck a glance at Lin Shen’s handsome profile. Her curiosity piqued once again, she mustered her courage and asked tentatively,
"Shen, you’re not actually planning to spend over twenty million on a car tonight, are you?"
"Bingo! You got it!"
Lin Shen chuckled and snapped his fingers. Just as he was about to say more, the host on the main stage suddenly announced in a loud voice,
"And now, we are about to present to our guests the penultimate feature item of this auction!"
VROOOM—!
Before the host’s voice had even faded, the lights in the hall suddenly dimmed.
Immediately after, the piercing roar of an engine echoed from backstage.
Then, countless spotlights converged on the side of the stage as a pure red Ferrari slowly drove into view.
Its entirely streamlined red body was in keeping with the design of the Ferrari family of sports cars.
However, the LaFerrari’s body was more retro, inheriting traces of the classic Ferrari sports racing cars of the 1960s.
The low hood and wheel arches were incredibly sculpted, and the body lines were smooth and natural. The aerodynamic design was outstanding, including features like flaps on the front and rear diffusers, guide vanes on the front underbody, and an active rear wing.
Even after more than fifty years, its aesthetic remained among the best in the world.
Of course, the value of the LaFerrari lay not only in its appearance but also in its collectibility.
As Ferrari’s flagship hypercar, only 499 units of the LaFerrari were produced.
Furthermore, the qualifications to purchase one were exceptionally strict; a prospective buyer needed to own five different Ferrari models or an Enzo just to be eligible to apply.
If not for this auction, a car like this could probably only be purchased by someone of even greater status.
Money alone wasn’t enough to buy a sports car of this caliber.
Therefore, the moment the LaFerrari appeared, the eyes of many guests in the audience lit up, their hearts stirring with desire.
"Everyone, I’m sure I don’t need to elaborate on the legend of the LaFerrari. Its very name represents the pinnacle of Ferrari’s automotive history!"
"And this new, custom model is the culmination of the painstaking efforts of countless Ferrari automotive engineers!"
Once the Ferrari LaFerrari reached the center of the stage, the host, full of passion, briefly recounted its legendary history and announced the starting bid.
