113: Chapter 113 A Surprise in the Bedroom!

"I think that purple pair is nice; let's wear that one tonight."

"I'll leave it up to you."

Lin Manzhi's eyes shimmered, and after changing her shoes, she hooked her arm into Shen Zhou's, resting her head gently against his shoulder.

"Have all the packed items sent here; someone will be there to receive them."

Shen Zhou left behind a business card and an address, made a phone call to the property management to let them know, and then left with Lin Manzhi.

Left behind them were nearly fifty shopping bags.

"That's so extravagant, buying so much stuff all at once."

"It really is frustrating to compare yourself to others. It takes me half a year's salary to afford one bag, while they can buy a lifetime's worth of bags in a single day!"

The onlookers couldn't stop whispering.

Just then, quite a few beautifully dressed women rushed over in a hurry.

But they could only watch the backs of Shen Zhou and Lin Manzhi as they walked away.

"It's so infuriating! I spent so much effort on my makeup, and now the handsome guy just leaves like that!"

"Why is that little bitch acting so slutty? Who is she trying to seduce with that black dress?"

"I curse that little bitch, I hope she breaks up with the handsome guy right away!"

The group of beautiful women, who hadn't managed to say hello to Shen Zhou in time, stomped their feet in frustration.

After more than ten minutes passed, these women finally dispersed in resignation.

By evening, Shen Zhou took Lin Manzhi to the Bund, setting their dinner location on the 57th floor of the Raffles City East Tower.

This was a rather famous high-altitude restaurant in Shanghai.

It was a good thing Shen Zhou had made a reservation in advance, otherwise, they might not have had a table tonight.

The elevator downstairs went straight to the 57th floor. As soon as they stepped inside, a beautiful Waitress in uniform greeted them at the elevator entrance.

"Do you two have a reservation?"

The Waitress asked very politely.

"Yes, we do. My surname is Shen. We'd like a high-altitude viewing table."

Shen Zhou said with a smile.

"Mr. Shen, please follow me this way."

The Waitress led Shen Zhou and Lin Manzhi all the way to the high-altitude viewing table.

Sitting in this spot and looking to the right, the entire bustling Bund could be seen at a glance.

Furthermore, the lights, which looked like stars in the night sky, also gave one a feeling of having everything in one's grasp.

"May I ask what you would like for appetizers?"

The Waitress handed over the menu.

"For appetizers, let's have the peony shrimp with Ningbo 18-cut sauce jelly, and also the crispy yellow croaker."

Shen Zhou ordered casually.

The first appetizer was of Russia style.

This dish was paired with tropical fruit-flavored crispy shrimp chips, topped with some sauce and cilantro.

Combined with the local specialty preparation style and the traditional 18-cut flavor.

That was why it had such a complicated name.

"For the main course, let's have the crayfish soup, and add an ultra-high temperature Australian tomahawk steak."

Shen Zhou ordered a few dishes casually, and finally finished with a dessert, the cloud three-color melon.

Lin Manzhi added a few other desserts.

Not long after, a Waitress arrived in front of Shen Zhou and his companion carrying a conch-shaped vessel.

A male Waitress held the conch and slowly poured the crayfish soup into the plate.

Then, the other dishes were served one by one.

In addition to the dishes Shen Zhou and Lin Manzhi ordered, the Waitress also recommended some more unique items at the end.

The table was filled with nine small dishes.

The surfaces of the restaurant's plates were carved with visual elements like clouds and landscapes.

It made Shen Zhou feel that it was quite novel while dining.

"This restaurant really has something special."

Shen Zhou casually speared a piece of steak and nodded in approval.

"Of course. This Best Western Restaurant is basically one of the most distinctive high-altitude cloud restaurants in Shanghai."

Lin Manzhi focused on her desserts, then took out her phone to pose for photos.

Shen Zhou, knife and fork in hand, continuously sliced the tomahawk steak in front of him.

The interior of the Western restaurant was dimly lit, and most of the diners were couples.

Aside from those whispering sweet nothings, most people were enjoying the beautiful view of the Bund outside the window.

The two stayed in the Western restaurant for an hour, and finally prepared to pay the bill, feeling refreshed.

"The total for this meal is 5,362 yuan, which includes a 10% service charge."

The Waitress at the front desk was about to hand the bill to Shen Zhou, but Lin Manzhi reached out and snatched it away.

She paid the bill efficiently, then hooked her arm into Shen Zhou's with a beaming smile and said:

"You bought me bags all afternoon, so let me treat you to this meal."

Shen Zhou nodded with a smile, but felt quite strange inside.

Ever since he started college, no woman had ever spent money on him, let alone paid for a meal.

Although he wasn't short of money, Lin Manzhi's sudden gesture gave him some new thoughts.

"As expected, an older sister type really knows how to take care of people!"

Shen Zhou took Lin Manzhi for a stroll along the Bund.

All around them, stylish men and women could be seen everywhere.

Even so, Shen Zhou and Lin Manzhi were still a standout couple among them.

One could even see outdoor streamers broadcasting on the street.

"Welcome, 'The Night is So Dark', my friend!"

"Family, double-tap 666, let's get the likes up to 300,000 together!"

Hearing the familiar sounds, Shen Zhou couldn't help but chuckle.

At first, he was keen on entering live streams and flirting with some of the more attractive female streamers by sending gifts.

But later, he lost interest in that.

First of all, through live streaming, it was impossible to discern the streamer's true appearance.

Secondly, people who have been streamers for a long time have absolutely no social experience.

Without having experienced some things, it is impossible for the vast majority of women to have any attractive qualities.

No matter how popular those female streamers were, they probably wouldn't have had such magical experiences as Lin Manzhi.

Nor would they be able to provide Shen Zhou with such unique emotional value as Lin Manzhi.

By nine o'clock in the evening, Shen Zhou followed Lin Manzhi back to her residence.

This was a three-story villa, with an overall pure white exterior.

"This villa was given to me when I got divorced."

Lin Manzhi entered the house with her arm around Shen Zhou's, then bent down to take out a pair of unopened men's slippers.

"I only have one pair of men's slippers here; they were prepared for you."

Lin Manzhi personally helped Shen Zhou take off his leather shoes and put on the black slippers.

Shen Zhou enjoyed her service with peace of mind, and was finally pulled by Lin Manzhi to sit on the sofa.

The overall decoration of this house was closer to a modern style, with the entire house decorated in shades of grey and white.

Looking closely, the house even seemed to have a sci-fi feel.

"The renovation is nice. It seems Li Peijun's aesthetic taste is decent."

Shen Zhou looked around carefully and suddenly blurted out.

"Hehe, I have already completely renovated this house. But I left a little surprise in the bedroom."

Suddenly, Lin Manzhi stood up and pulled Shen Zhou to the bedroom.
