Chapter 1534 (Title is a Spoiler)
Jin Liwei admitted that he sometimes found a strange pleasure when his wife scolded him, especially when she got mad from jealousy.
Most of the time, it was he who felt jealous and possessive. His jealous and possessive nature would always be there, but at least now, he could control how he reacted to prevent his wife from feeling suffocated.
As for Iris, she rarely felt jealous and possessive maybe because she felt more secure in their relationship than him. But when she did feel jealous and possessive, she was a force to be reckoned with.
There was still a fear deep inside him that she would leave him one day if he took their relationship for granted. This was why he would always do everything in his power to be the man that she needed. Nôv(el)B\\jnn
He would always give in to her as long as her demands didn't hurt herself. Of course, he wouldn't deliberately make her feel jealous or possessive, but he would feel secretly happy whenever she did. It meant that she cared about him and wanted him to stay with her.
What he feared the most was her indifference. It would hurt him terribly if she started ignoring him and stopped caring about him. He would rather that she hated him rather than ignore him.
But these were just thoughts for those extreme situations. Right now was a beautiful life of marriage and contentment for both of them. He would do whatever was needed to safeguard his marriage and protect the beautiful family that they had built together.
So he could somehow relate to his younger brother when Jin Chonglin said that he began to look forward to Chen Fei scolding him.
Jin Liwei watched as his wife paid rapt attention to Jin Chonglin's confession just like everybody else. Some of the guests even fished out their phones to record.
He sighed.
Iris noticed it and asked, "Why are you sighing?"
"Chonglin is not thoughtful enough," he said.
She tilted her head to the side.
Seeing the question in her eyes, he said, "If he's going to do what we all think he's going to do, then this is not the right place at all. I doubt that he made careful plans. I bet he just thought about it, maybe this morning, and wants to do it immediately. He's my brother, so I know that he can be very impulsive. For one, he's going to put too much pressure on Chen Fei in front of all these people. And most importantly, how dare he do this at your Liberté launch party? Is he trying to overshadow your launch with his thoughtless, impulsive actions? When he's done, watch how I'll deal with him."
Iris chuckled. "So you're upset for my sake?"
Chen Fei didn't answer. She just looked at him.
One minute, two minutes.
"What's your answer?!" Jin Chonglin demanded.
Why was she taking so long to answer?
He hadn't been this nervous for a long time.
Was she going to say no?
Why wouldn't she marry him?
He was the superstar Jin Chonglin!
"You know," Chen Fei began to speak.
He stood in attention, not wanting to miss a word she said.
"This is the first time that you told me you love me," she said.
"Huh?" He was in a daze.
Was this really the first time that he said that he loved her?
She continued, "You've never told me before that you love me and you expect me to accept your marriage proposal? Do you think we live in ancient times? That I should marry you simply because you've claimed me in public?"
Jin Chonglin started trembling. He had a bad premonition.
"Marry you? Hah! In your dreams! My answer is no!"
Chen Fei turned around and walked away.
