Chapter 638 - Good Auspicious Date
Jin Corporation.
A standing ovation followed Jin Chonglin and Iris Long"s epic performance. The roaring applause wasperfectly transmitted through the huge flatscreen television mounted on the wall.
Jin Liwei smiled as his baby girl looked directly at him through the TV screen and mouthed the words "This is for you, darling" before waving and bowing to the audience. Of course, he already knew that her pa.s.sionate and sensual performance was for him.
Before the bomb incident, she tried rehearsing the song and dance in front of him but her s.e.xiness always made him snap and lose control. He grabbed her and pushed her down the floor to make love with her before she could even finish. After many instances of it happening, he suspected that she was doing it on purpose to seduce him. Not that he was complaining.
Now that he watched the full performance, complete with the amazing stage effects, blood rushed towards his lower region. There was no one as beautiful, talented, and s.e.xy as his baby girl for him.
Watching his brother Jin Chonglin singing and dancing such a sensual and pa.s.sionate song with his woman, Jin Liwei couldn"t help but feel jealous. However, she already took the time before to rea.s.sure him that he would be the only one she would be thinking all throughout the performance so there was no need for him to feel jealous of his own brother.
Besides, she was the one who suggested the idea of adding the phoenix and dragon symbolisms into the music video and the live performance to honour their relations.h.i.+p even though the song was written by Jin Chonglin. The creative team behind the making of the music video thought that it was an excellent idea, so in the end, Jin Chonglin gave in because he too admitted that it was indeed a great idea. He still sulked a lot after that, though.
Jin Liwei appreciated the inclusion of the phoenix and the dragon. He already long treated them as the symbols representing his love he shared with her. His thoughts behind it might be over the top, but he didn"t care.
For him, she was the phoenix queen showing everyone her magnificence while he was the dragon king always protecting her. Their love was eternal!
The inclusion of these symbols into the music video made him feel like he was also a part of the song, and in turn, lessened the jealousy he felt at his younger brother for writing such a sensual song and dragging his baby girl to help him sing it.
He leaned back on his opulent leather seat in front of his ma.s.sive office desk. His full attention was on the post-performance interview. He frowned, thinking that the hosts were taking too long asking questions. His baby girl was drenched! If they wouldn"t give her something warm to cover herself up, then they should at least hurry up and end the interview so that she could return backstage. If his baby girl fell ill after this, he would make sure to sue the c.r.a.p out of the TV program!
His frown deepened when his eyes fell on her semi-exposed flat stomach. He almost didn"t let her perform tonight because he was too worried about her possible condition. They still didn"t know whether she was pregnant or not. This song required her to sing and dance at the same time. And the dancing was quite intense, too. What if she was really pregnant and ended up overexerting herself?
Worried, they called his second brother, Dr. w.a.n.g Yingjie, and expressed their concern. He a.s.sured them that Iris would be fine because she was young, healthy and fit, and regularly worked out. In his opinion, her body would be able to handle the performance as long as she didn"t do it too hard or too long. Also, he said that as long as she felt fine, then she would most likely be just fine. However, he suggested that he would personally check on her the day after the performance to make sure that she was really alright. Maybe they could even try getting her a pregnancy test, although w.a.n.g Yingjie thought that it was still too early.
Only upon receiving w.a.n.g Yingjie"s a.s.surance did Jin Liwei feel comfortable enough to let his baby girl perform on the stage tonight. But he still informed Dominic and his subordinates to take extra care of her and to let her rest as much as possible. He would always worry about her regardless of whether she was pregnant or not.
Sensing the uneasiness in his boss, Xu Tian served him a cup of hot, calming herbal tea. He also watched the Second Master and Miss Long"s performance on TV, temporarily pausing their remaining tasks for the day.
They originally planned to finish early today so that Jin Liwei could watch tonight"s episode of MusicFest Tonight in the comfort of his own mansion and also be the one to welcome his baby girl home this time after so long of returning late. Unfortunately, a serious issue in the marketing department came up in the afternoon. All the executives had to gather together in a meeting in order to resolve it. In the end, Jin Liwei"s original plan of going home early had to be sc.r.a.pped.
As the one in charge of the marketing department, Rose Young apologized for the issue before immediately proposing some solutions to the problems. She was competent in this way. Still, she only apologized briefly but didn"t say that it was her fault.
The meeting extended into the evening and only just finished. If Jin Liwei didn"t drive his fellow executives with an iron fist, he might"ve missed MusicFest Tonight.
Rose Young suggested that they eat dinner together but Jin Liwei refused and returned to his office to switch on the TV. There was no way he was going to miss his baby girl"s performance.
Back to the present, MusicFest Tonight finally ended. Jin Liwei sipped his hot tea, already feeling calmer now that his baby girl"s performance was over. She looked alright. What a relief!
"Ketchup, monitor your mom. Any sign of pain or discomfort from her, immediately order her security team to send her directly to the nearest hospital. Understood?"
"Aye aye, Daddy! Meow~"
Afterwards, Jin Liwei switched off the TV and faced the doc.u.ments on his desk once again. Xu Tian was also about to return to his own tasks. However, Jin Liwei didn"t resume working. He stared at the doc.u.ments for almost a minute before sighing and pus.h.i.+ng them away.
"These can wait until tomorrow," he said before standing up.
Xu Tian was at a loss for a moment before quickly recovering. "Understood, President."
"Let"s go home."
"Yes, President."
They left the office and was about to enter the elevator when Jin Liwei suddenly stopped and turned to Xu Tian.
"Oh, I almost forgot. Coordinate with Dominic regarding the schedules of both Xiulan and I. Find a good, auspicious date for a wedding before winter when both of us are free, preferably by next month. I want Xiulan to be my legal wife as soon as possible."
Xu Tian tripped on his own feet and almost smashed his face on the wall.
