Chapter 389 - First Anniversary?
Chapter 389 - First Anniversary?
Dom was currently taking a nap, while Iris was deep in her own thoughts.
She had turned twenty-one years old some time ago. Not long afterwards, Jin Liwei also celebrated his birthday and turned thirty-two.
Recently, she read an online article about how semen volume decreased with age. Although it was still possible for men to remain fertile until they were sixty years of age, conceiving became more difficult.
Iris was still young, so she wasn’t too worried about herself. Besides, she wasn’t ready to give birth to her own children yet. On the other hand, Jin Liwei already mentioned that he was ready to have children with her anytime.
Although he already told her that he was willing to wait until she was ready, he wasn’t getting any younger. Yes, he was currently still in his prime and was extremely virile, but the article she read caused her some concern.
"I wonder if there are ways to delay the decline of semen volume...or maybe even boost it. Hmmm. I need to search this up," she murmured. "Or maybe I should ask a doctor. Dr. Ching? Or maybe Second Brother? I’ll have to think more about this."
Jin Liwei had no idea that his baby girl was thinking of making him undergo another round of her weird experiments. But whatever it was, he would surely offer his body as her personal test subject to do as she pleased.
Finally, the van reached the mansion. Iris woke up Dom. It was already late in the evening.
They came from shooting a music video with Jin Chonglin. It was for the song he composed after Jin Liwei’s suggestion that he compose his own song instead of making major changes to Iris’ song. Since Jin Chonglin wasn’t allowed to make any major changes to the love song, Iris wasn’t also allowed to interfere with his song’s composition.
But before they were able to shoot the music video, they had to learn and rehearse the dance choreography for a few weeks first. They had to squeeze their rehearsal times into their busy schedules.
It was exhausting. But at the same time, she also found it fun and exciting because this was her first time performing a song like this. The song reminded her of Jin Liwei.
The first time she rehearsed it in front of Jin Liwei at their home gym while he was working out, he suddenly lost control. He grabbed her and made love with her right on the floor. Good thing he always kept a couple of condoms in his pocket wherever he went just for moments like this.
After that, she made several attempts to rehearse in front of him because she wanted to hear his opinions about the performance. However, he would lose control and make love with her every single time.
It reached a point that whenever Iris wanted to make love, she would perform the song in front of him. She was never disappointed because he would always lose control and make her scream in pure pleasure afterwards.
Iris smiled while remembering how hot her darling would become whenever he lost control of his desire for her. The delicious memories made her forget the aches in her body from shooting the music video with Jin Chonglin during the week. She felt relieved that they finally completed shooting the music video earlier today.
As for the love song she composed, they already finished recording it. JJ also completed its post-production, and then submitted it to the TV drama producers. The love song was quickly approved and would be officially released a few days before the TV drama premiered in autumn this year.
Back to the present, Iris and Dom climbed out of the van and entered the mansion. They walked into the grand foyer but stopped in their tracks at the sight that welcomed them.
Thousands of red rose petals rained over them from the ceiling, flooding the wide expanse of the marble floor like crimson carpet. A full symphony orchestra—the one Iris always performed with—were arranged in a spectacular manner on the twin grand staircases. They played beautiful, romantic music as soon as Iris and Dom arrived.
Jin Liwei slowly walked over the carpet of red rose petals. In his arms, he carried a huge bouquet of flowers filled with mostly carnations and roses. There were even some real crystals weaved into the bouquet. They sparkled under the chandelier lights.
"Kyaaaaah!!!" Dom squealed and pretended to faint.
Iris didn’t notice Dom’s antics because all of her attention was on her darling. Jin Liwei looked so handsome that he took her breath away. She just stood there and stared at him like an idiot—COUGH COUGH—like a woman in love.
Finally, Jin Liwei stopped in front of her. He handed her the huge bouquet of flowers.
"For you. Happy First Anniversary, love," he told her.
"Thank you, darling. Happy Anni—huh? What?"
Iris’ smile transformed into a confused expression. Her brows furrowed as she quickly combed her mind to confirm whether today was really their anniversary. The process only took a few seconds.
"Darling, today is not our anniversary. I’m certain of it."
Some of the musicians were so shocked hearing her words that they stopped playing. The mansion’s household staff who were watching close by almost tripped on their own feet. Their eyes widened, looking at their master in disbelief.
Did he forget the date of their anniversary?!
Dom stopped squealing, closed his eyes and placed his index fingers on his temples.
"Hmmm!!!" He strained hard to remember whether today was really his boss and sir boss’ anniversary. Then his eyes opened. He also looked at Jin Liwei in confusion.
"Eh? Sir boss, boss is right. Today is not your anniversary. You’re a few days too early."
Everyone gasped. The music completely stopped, followed by an awkward silence. They couldn’t believe that Jin Liwei would make such a dreadful mistake like this. The household staff already started retreating, afraid to face the wrath of their mistress.
Jin Liwei frowned. "No, today is our anniversary."
Iris was already feeling unhappy. "No, you’re wrong. It’s not today."
"Love, it’s today. I’m sure of it," he insisted.
"I said no!"
The musicians and the household staff all flinched at her raised voice.
A lone red petal fell from the ceiling and landed on the tip of her nose before falling to the floor with the rest of the rose petal carpet.
Iris looked at the huge bouquet in her hands, at all the flowers and the other romantic decorations, at the musicians, and finally at Jin Liwei. It was obvious that he put in a lot of effort to prepare all of these for her.
"I’m sorry, darling." She threw herself into his chest. His arms immediately wrapped around her. She felt him kiss the top of her head. "I didn’t mean to shout at you. I’m feeling tired, plus it’s also your fault because you got the date of our anniversary wrong. But I appreciate all of these. Everything looks beautiful. Thank you."
"My pleasure, love. But I told you. I didn’t get it wrong. Today is our anniversary," he continued to insist.
Annoyed, Iris bit him on his chest. He grunted but otherwise allowed her to bite him.
"Oh! I get it now!" Dom suddenly exclaimed. "Maybe sir boss is too excited to celebrate your anniversary that he decided to celebrate it early! I’m right, aren’t I? Ehehehe! That’s so romantic and cute~"
"Really?" Iris asked.
Jin Liwei frowned. "Of course, I’m excited. But no, today’s celebration is correct because it’s our anniversary. Exactly at this date one year ago, Xiulan and I had our first kiss. So it’s our anniversary today."
"Eh?" Dom was taken aback.
"Huh?" Iris’ expression mirrored Dom’s.
