"No, thanks."
Lin Shen waved his hand, refusing outright.
"I fully own and manage my stores myself. I don't feel comfortable partnering with others."
"Boss Lin, how about you reconsider? A 60-40 split is fine... I can even accept 70-30!"
"Forget it. I have other things to do, so I'm leaving. We can talk another time."
Faced with Shen Mingchuan's pestering, Lin Shen simply made an excuse and left. His cold attitude was enough to make him furious.
'If you don't want to partner up, then don't!'
'What's with the sour look?'
'Does he really think the store's success is all his own doing?!'
'Pah!'
Shen Mingchuan was filled with resentment. He felt this shop's booming business should have been his golden goose, but Lin Shen had swooped in and snatched it away!
'What rotten luck!'
'So petty! The shop will go under sooner or later!'

After leaving the XH District branch of the Shennan Pet Society, Lin Shen drove to the flagship store in Wujiaochang.
