Finally, Jin Liwei was able to calm down a bit.

He sighed before answering her. "I came today to make an official offer of a business partnership between us. I have hired countless private investigators before but not one of them can reach the level of the reports you sent me. I will pay however much you ask."

Iris was silent for a few seconds. "Mr. Jin, I'm quite busy at the moment. I'm making my comeback to showbiz. I have to do extensive promotions for my upcoming album."

"I know. You don't have to accept all of my requests, just the ones that you can do when you have free time. Surely you can do that? As I said, the price is not a problem."

"To be honest, I don't mind accepting this kind of work. It's just that, Mr. Jin, I feel uneasy whenever I'm dealing with you. That's why I'd rather not accept your offer."

"You feel uneasy with me? Why?"

She thought for a moment. "I don't know the exact reason. I need to think about it more. "

"Hmm" He rubbed his chin, looking at her with amused eyes. "Isn't it because you're attracted to me?"

Iris frowned. "But I don't like you."

He walked closer to her, looked directly at her eyes and whispered. "Are you sure you don't like me? You liked my kiss. That means you like me. Shall I kiss you again to make sure?"

She stepped back, putting her hands in front of her. "Stop, Mr. Jin. I may be inexperienced but I'm not stupid. I'm busy and you're busy. Let's not waste each other's time. Go find another woman if you really can't hold it in. I'm sure that with your status, there are a lot of women more than willing to satisfy you. I'm not interested. If there isn't anything else, please leave."

His expression turned black. He took a few deep breaths before he was able to control his temper.

He turned, sat on a chair and poured himself a cup of hot tea. After sipping, he nodded in appreciation. If he wasn't mistaken, this was Gyokuro tea¹.

He checked the time on his gold watch. "It's almost lunch time. I'm hungry. Do you want to stay here or shall we go out?"

Iris' eyes twitched. The damn arrogant man was acting like he was in his own home!

She sighed, suddenly feeling tired.

She didn't want to waste time and energy arguing with him anymore. "I plan to stay at home today. This is my last precious day off until I start promoting my comeback album."

"Alright." He grabbed a small sponge cake from the plate and ate it, sipping tea in between a couple of bites.

Dom returned with a laptop in his arms. When he saw his boss and Mr. Jin Liwei, he was a bit disappointed that they weren't kissing anymore. "Boss, I brought your laptop."

"Thanks, Dom." Iris walked forward and sat on a chair opposite Jin Liwei. Dom placed the laptop on the table in front of her. "And also, Dom, check when lunch will be ready. Mr. Jin will be joining us."

"Right away, boss! Ehehe." Dom hurried to the kitchen.

Maybe he would be able to witness another kissing scene later. How exciting!

Jin Liwei ate the sponge cakesgood stuff, he would ask for some to take home laterwhile admiring the serious expression on the girl's face as she typed on her laptop.

She frowned while reading something, tilting her head to the side. Moments later, her expression looked more and more confused.

"What are you looking at?" he asked, unable to hold his curiosity any longer.

Not hearing an answer, he stood up, walked to her side and looked down at her laptop screen. Seeing what she was reading, his jaw fell down in shock.

She was reading an English article from a foreign website. The title?

"How to Know if You're Feeling Horny".
