Chapter 170 - Stupid Question

Iris observed Jin Liwei’s expression. His poker face was almost perfect, but she still caught the flash of wariness in his eyes when she mentioned the name of the production company. She really was getting better in reading him.

"It’s you, isn’t it?" she asked.

"Hmm..."

"Well...darling?"

He stayed silent.

She felt displeased that he wasn’t telling her. "Fine. I’ll just confirm it myself." Then she headed to her desk, intending to search up the new production company using her computer.

"Baby, no need!" he said hurriedly, pulling her arm. He took a couple of deep breaths before telling her, "Alright. It’s me."

"I knew it. It’s so obvious. LX?"

"Are you angry?" he asked.

Her head tilted to the side, thinking whether she was feeling angry or not. Then she replied, "Not really."

He released a sigh of relief.

"But I wish you told me first," she said.

"Sorry, baby. I know that you don’t like me directly supporting your career, so I can only do it this way by supporting the film that you’re involved with. But even so, I was still worried that you wouldn’t allow me if I told you."

"You’re right. I would’ve probably discouraged you if you told me first."

"That’s what I thought," he said with a sigh.

"Well, it’s too late now. The director and the producer already announced to the rest of the film crew that LX Productions will be co-producing. They’ll be dejected if you suddenly pull out. Besides, I also think that they need the additional financing. It will provide them with more resources to improve the production and make the film more amazing."

He nodded, agreeing with her.

"By the way, is LX Productions registered under your name?"

"I’m registered as the owner but I appointed somebody else to run it for me. So publicly, nobody will know that I’m involved with the company, if that’s what you’re worried about."

"Hmm...okay," she said, although she wasn’t really worried.

She personally didn’t mind if others discovered their relationship. After all, she didn’t give a whit about what others thought. However, she wouldn’t reveal it if nobody asked her. And even if someone asked her if she had a boyfriend, she would probably just confirm the relationship without revealing Jin Liwei’s identity. She didn’t want people hounding either of them. Besides, she imagined that it was nicer to enjoy their relationship in peace without the entire world looking at their every single movement.

And also what if others started fantasizing about her man? She immediately felt angry just thinking about it. Jin Liwei was hers!

Jin Liwei saw her scowling. He thought that she was angry after all that he secretly set up a production company to support her from the shadows. He pulled her into his arms and embraced her tightly.

"Don’t be angry," he said.

"Hm? I just told you I’m not angry."

"Really?"

She nodded. "Well, I feel a little annoyed that you went behind my back, but it’s okay. You’re already a little annoying to begin with. It’s not like this is the first time."

He looked crushed for a couple of seconds before managing to fix his expression. ’At least she only thinks I’m a little annoying and not boring. It will tragic if there ever comes a day she thinks I’m boring,’ he thought, trying to stay positive. He felt somewhat better.

Then she wrapped her arms around his waist and pressed herself closer against his body. She returned his tight embrace. She lifted her head so that she was looking at his face.

"Don’t feel bad anymore. I know you only did it for me. So thank you."

He gave a relieved smile. "Anything for you, baby." Then he lifted her up and began kissing her.

Iris opened her mouth to allow him in. Her eyes closed, feeling the desire for him building up within her once again.

This time, the kiss was slow and passionate. The two of them slowly tasted, pleasured, and enjoyed each other using their mouths and tongues.

A few seconds had passed since they started kissing and she could already feel something hard poking against her abdomen. Then just as she expected, he broke the kiss and gently set her down on her feet.

He stepped back from her so that their bodies weren’t intimately touching anymore. He panted and looked up at the ceiling, obviously trying to control himself.

She watched him struggling with his desire for her. She realized that she liked seeing him like this, so very different to the cold and indifferent Jin Liwei he presented to the public, and it was all because of her. Her eyes glinted and her lips lifted into a mischievous smile.

Jin Liwei didn’t notice anything amiss because he was still looking up at the ceiling, trying to calm his raging desire. That was until he tumbled back and landed hard on the couch behind him. He looked up at his baby girl in shock. She just suddenly pushed him hard on his chest.

He was about to ask her why when he saw her untie her robe and let it fall from her shoulders to the floor, leaving only her bra on.

"What..." His throat suddenly felt dry, as he watched his baby girl suddenly transform into a seductress.

She walked slowly towards him and then put one of her knees on the couch beside him. She leaned forward so that she was above him, looking at him with such a sexy smile that he felt like coming that very instant. Fortunately, he was able to control himself...barely.

"Baby, what are you doing?" he asked, keeping his tone light even though he was visibly trembling in excitement.

"What a stupid question," she said in a low voice. Then she lifted her other leg so that she was kneeling astride him. However, she didn’t sit directly on his lap. She remained in a kneeling position, looking down at him. "Take off your shirt," she ordered.

His queen had spoken. It would be a crime to defy her.

His hands seemed to be in super speed mode because his shirt was taken off in no time. Afterwards, he looked up at her in anticipation.

Iris felt so entertained watching him. His expression looked like he was telling her, ’I did what you told me. Aren’t I a good boy? Praise me. Reward me.’

She couldn’t help it. He threw her head back and laughed. She even clutched her abdomen because she was laughing so hard.

Jin Liwei’s face fell. Did he do something wrong? Why was she laughing at him?

"Oh, Liwei. You’re so cute."
