Chapter 113 - Do You Miss Daddy?

Jin Liwei could guess what his assistant wanted to say. His lips pressed together and a trace of anxiety flashed in his cold eyes. "I’ll tell her everything," he said in a soft voice. "I just need the right timing."

Xu Tian nodded and returned to his seat. He had trouble focusing on his work because he couldn’t help but worry for his boss.

In his opinion, it was better if the boss confessed the truth to Miss Long, the sooner the better. Although they already erased all traces of the truth, keeping such a big secret from one’s beloved would definitely have a heavy emotional toll.

Who would have thought that the President would fall for Miss Long, of all people?

What kind of stroke of fate was this?

A relationship built on shaky ground wouldn’t last long. No matter how grand and beautiful, if the foundations were weak, it would eventually collapse. This kind of secret would fester in the heart and eat away the love.

As he thought more about it, Xu Tian agreed with the President’s decision to gradually cut off his ties with the Fans. But he couldn’t cut them out completely because it was a fact that they were going to be in-laws through the Second Master.

Xu Tian sighed. What a mess!

If only the Second Master wasn’t marrying Miss Fan Luo, then the President would have more wiggle room to deal with the Fans without ruffling too many feathers.

Who ever said that being members of the country’s prominent families was easy?

He could only pray that Miss Long would understand the President’s reasoning for doing what he did. She was also a daughter of a prominent family, so she should be familiar with the obsession of safeguarding the family reputation.

"Xu Tian, stop thinking about it. Focus on your work."

He flinched, feeling guilty upon hearing his boss’ admonishment. "Apologies, President."

"Don’t worry about it anymore. This is my problem. I’ll deal with it myself."

"Understood, President."

Although Jin Liwei said such words to his assistant, inside he was in turmoil. His hands clenched into fists, trying to control his anxiety. For the first time in his life, he didn’t feel confident and was afraid of rejection.

He could only do his best to show Xiulan his feelings and make her fall for him enough that she would be able to forgive him once he confessed everything to her.

Hopefully...

Saturday.

Gold Heights Condominium.

Originally, Iris was supposed to have a full schedule everyday promoting her new album immediately after the release day. But because of the incident with the Alarm Girls during the launch party, Bright Summit instructed her to lay low for now.

"Let our PR team handle the media storm. Don’t post anything on social media," Tang Yiyi told her on the phone. "Don’t worry. The law is on our side. You did nothing wrong. What you did was legitimate self-defence. Besides, those Alarm Girls already have a previous record. Just take this time to rest up and be ready to return to work anytime."

"I understand, Elder Sister Yiyi. Thank you."

Iris was actually relieved that she didn’t have to work at the moment. Of course, she was excited to promote her new album especially since she had been looking forward to it for so long.

But she was not feeling well.

She was listless and had no appetite. Yi Mei almost resorted to force-feeding her before she could persuade Iris to eat a few spoonful of food. The housekeeper was so worried and suggested that they call for Dr. Ching, but Iris waved her away, saying that it was just a bad case of menstruation and that she would feel better after her period.

The good news was that her album "Rebirth" was selling like crazy, even though she couldn’t actively promote it for now. Many stores were already sold out and ordered another batch from JJ’s record label. It also topped the bestseller daily rankings in all the major online music stores.

Perhaps the incident with the Alarm Girls wasn’t so bad after all. It was certainly bringing a lot of publicity to Iris and her new album.

The biggest reason for the demand for her album, however, was the slew of videos taken during the launch party. The videos were currently hot on the internet, not to mention the high praises from the fans who personally attended the launch party. They showed and bragged about Iris’ breathtaking performances.

The most popular was the one showing her singing in whistle register. Everyone was so amazed that almost all programs on TV and radio were talking about it the entire day. Even some of the newspapers made it their headlines.

Many were already giving Iris Long titles such as "Nation’s Voice", "Nation’s Diva", "Nation’s Talent," and even "Nation’s Siren". The netizens, however, gave her the title "Nation’s Lady Boss" for her gangster aura when she dealt with the Alarm Girls.

It was only the second day since her album "Rebirth" was launched, but it was already exceeding expectations. Iris Long, in particular, was the current hottest topic.

While everyone was talking about her, the person herself didn’t have the energy to care about all of these. She tried playing the piano, but she couldn’t sit for too long. She tried composing, but she couldn’t focus.

She took Jin Liwei’s list and went to her computer room. She could only finish one report before she decided to stop.

Not used to being idle, she had no idea what to do. She suddenly wished that Jin Liwei would come home sooner. She wanted to call him, to hear his voice, but couldn’t because he should still be on the plane at the moment.

She could only settle for the next best thing and spent almost the entire day lazing around with her kittens, playing with them with what little energy she could eke out.

Iris laid on the carpet in the cat room, an electric heating pad on her abdomen. Ice Cream was curled on top it, sleeping contentedly. Popcorn was, as usual, jumping all around, trying to get her to play with him.

"Do you miss daddy?" she suddenly asked them, and then blushed when she realized what she just said.

But her kittens surprised her.

Ice Cream opened her eyes, looked at her and then meowed softly, replying to her, before returning to sleep. Popcorn also responded by giving a series of loud meows, as if demanding where his daddy was.

Iris smiled and petted the two kittens. "I miss daddy, too."
