Chapter 595: Chapter 288: The Mature Woman and the Young Matron, Close as Sisters
Jiayu Pavilion.
7:30 AM.
Xu Lei, driving Lin Shen’s Maybach S680, arrived downstairs on time to wait.
Although driving wasn’t technically part of her duties as a secretary,
she was more than happy to do it for Lin Shen.
For one, the Maybach S680’s handling was absolutely top-tier among business-class vehicles.
Driving this car was a pleasure.
Whenever she waited at a red light or got out at a gas station, she would attract envious and amazed glances.
Although Xu Lei wasn’t a particularly vain woman, anyone would feel an inexplicable flutter of joy and happiness after being the subject of so much admiration.
Humans are social creatures. The approval and adoration of others always provide a high degree of emotional satisfaction.
This was another reason why Xu Lei liked driving for Lin Shen.
Of course, the most crucial point was getting to share a more private space with Lin Shen.
While a secretary and her boss spend a lot of time together, it’s usually at the office or in public.
They rarely had any time alone.
The car was one of those rare exceptions.
That was why, whenever Xu Lei was driving Lin Shen, she wished it was just the two of them. She even fantasized about the car breaking down in the middle of the night, leading to... certain indescribable events.
’I guess I’ve been watching too many short-form dramas lately.’
Xu Lei quickly patted her cheeks to clear her head. She then took out a compact mirror to touch up her makeup, making sure she always looked perfect whenever she saw Lin Shen.
A moment later, Lin Shen and Qin Yuenan came downstairs.
Since it was a team-building day, they were both dressed casually.
Qin Yuenan, in particular, was in outdoor gear. She wore loose pants with a camisole, a sun-protection jacket, sunglasses, and sports headphones, giving her a very athletic look.
Anyone who didn’t know better might have thought she was going hiking.
Of course, the outfit also perfectly highlighted Qin Yuenan’s amazing figure.
As a woman herself, Xu Lei couldn’t help but be envious.
’Long legs are such a blessing!’
’If I had President Qin’s proportions, would I even have to worry about winning over President Lin?’
’He’d fall for my long legs sooner or later!’
’But everyone has their own strengths. I must have something that appeals to President Lin, right?’
Xu Lei quickly got out to open the car door for them, smiling.
"President Lin, President Qin, please get in."
"Thanks for all your hard work lately, Xu," Lin Shen said with a smile.
"You won’t have to drive for me much longer. I’ve hired a driver, so things will be a bit easier for you."
"Not at all! It’s really no trouble."
Hearing that Lin Shen had hired a driver, Xu Lei felt a pang of disappointment.
On one hand, she wouldn’t be able to drive a luxury car like the Maybach S680 anymore; on the other, she’d have fewer opportunities to spend time with Lin Shen.
’Maybe I need to be more proactive,’ Xu Lei mused silently.
She then got behind the wheel, and the group set off for Wetland Park.
By now, employees from Shennan were already trickling into the picnic area.
When they saw the beautifully arranged team-building site, their eyes lit up.
"This is so beautiful! It looks like President Lin put a lot of thought into this!"
"Totally! If I’d known it would look this good, I would’ve dressed up a little more."
"Why dress up? I heard there are going to be activities later. President Lin is giving cash prizes to the winners!"
"Of course I knew that; otherwise, I wouldn’t have come. President Lin is so good to us. This is the first company I’ve worked for that holds its team-building on a Friday. My last company always scheduled events and meetings on weekends. It was so annoying and completely ruined my days off!"
"Well, President Lin is our age, maybe even a little younger, so he gets it. He’s approachable, too. Working for a generous boss like him is the absolute best!"
"It really is!"
The employees chattered excitedly about Lin Shen, then took out their phones to start snapping pictures of the venue. They were documenting Shennan’s first-ever team-building event, which they hoped would become a fond memory.
Crucially, the setup was very romantic, making it a perfect, photogenic backdrop for the young women who loved taking selfies.
This was all part of Lin Shen’s clever plan.
There are many ways to promote a company, but the most effective is, without a doubt, spontaneous promotion from the employees themselves.
After all, it takes a worker to understand a worker.
It’s useless for a boss to go on and on about how great their company is. The employees’ verdict is what truly matters.
That’s why Lin Shen treated this first batch of Shennan hires so well, hoping they would spread positive word-of-mouth about the company.
As the employees were cheerfully taking photos at the event, a BYD Han EV slowly pulled over to the side of the road.
Lin Ping stepped out of the car.
She was wearing a dark blue, sleeveless turtleneck top that clung tightly to her curvaceous figure.
A silver bracelet on her wrist added a touch of elegance to her bare arms.
She wore a pair of light-blue jeans. They seemed ordinary, but the slim fit perfectly accentuated the sexy curve of her waist and hips.
For a mature woman with a good figure, jeans can sometimes be even more flattering than a form-fitting dress.
This was certainly the case for Lin Ping.
Her hips were naturally full, and the tightening effect of the denim emphasized her perfectly round, peach-shaped bottom.
Paired with her slender waist, it was a look that perfectly embodied the charm of a mature woman.
Combined with her gentle, captivating face, she could easily steal any man’s heart.
