Jin Liwei was able to coax Iris by persuading her that there was nothing to be embarrassed about in front of his brothers. His brothers were also now her brothers.
She finally calmed down and began to chat naturally with everyone.
Dismayed, Jin Liwei tried to shoo them away but they pretended that they didn’t hear him, even when he was already being so direct, blatantly telling them to go the f*ck away. They may be his best friends, his brothers, but at the moment, they were all annoying flies buzzing around his beautiful girlfriend.
To his three brothers, this was such a rare moment. Their Third Brother finally got himself a girlfriend! The one among them who never showed any interest in women before and turned murderous whenever someone attempted to seduce him or even just flirted with him. Deep within their hearts, they even suspected that their Third Brother might be bent the other way but of course, nobody dared to voice this suspicion unless they wanted to die.
Yu Mo: “Xiao Xiu, Xiao Xiu! Tell Teacher how you and Third Bro met each other. Come on, we want to know!”
Iris: “Uh, we met at a hotel―”
Yu Mo: “What?! Hotel?! That fast?!”
Iris: “―lobby. Wait, what?”
Jin Liwei’s scowl was so ugly that it alarmed Lin Yehan.
Lin Yehan laughed unnaturally and knocked Yu Mo on the head. “Wait for people to finish talking first.”
Jin Liwei: “Enough. Leave us alone. My girlfriend and I are on a date.”
Yu Mo: “But Third Bro! We haven’t seen each other for so long! And this is the first time we’re meeting your girlfriend…well, not my first time meeting her because we see each other every week, but this is the first time I’m meeting her as your girlfriend. You know what I mean?”
Lin Yehan: “Let’s go. Let’s not disturb the two of them anymore.”
Yu Mo: “But Eldest Bro!”
Wang Yingjie: “Xiulan, are we bothering you two?”
Jin Liwei: “Yes, you are all bothering us.”
Iris: “No, of course not.”
Jin Liwei’s expression was so scary that Yu Mo subconsciously stepped back. Damn it! He was a martial arts expert but in front of his Third Bro, he felt like a weak little kid.
Iris looked up at Jin Liwei. “Why don’t we let them join us? Your brothers are already here and it’s rude that we’re driving them away.”
Iris: “How about we make an exception for today? I won’t be at peace if we just drive them away. Besides, we’re the ones borrowing Eldest Brother’s villa.”
Jin Liwei gave her an unwilling look.
Iris: “Please, Liwei…darling?”
His eyes immediately lit up. “Say it again.”
Iris: “Darling. Let’s spend time with your brothers today. Okay?”
Jin Liwei: “Again.”
Iris: “Darling.”
Her voice sounded robotic saying the word but it nevertheless was like music to his ears.
Jin Liwei: “Hmm…fine. But you have to give me a kiss first, baby.”
Oh well. They already knew that she was his girlfriend anyway, so there was nothing wrong with seeing the two of them kiss.
She stood on her tippy-toes and pressed her lips quickly on his mouth. His arms circled around her waist and lifted her up for better access.
Yu Mo: “Ah, my eyes!”
After the kiss, Iris was a little breathless while Jin Liwei had a pleased expression on his face. He turned to his brothers.
Jin Liwei: “Fine. You may join us but no touching my girlfriend.”
Lin Yehan: “Ahahaha!”
Yu Mo: “What are we, stupid? You think we want to die?”
Wang Yingjie: “Alright then. Everything is now settled. So what shall we do now?”
Lin Yehan: “Let’s eat lunch.”
Iris frowned. “I’m not your sister-in-law.”
Jin Liwei stiffened beside her. She looked at him, confused at his reaction.
Yu Mo: “Ah? Of course you’re our sister-in-law. You’re Third Bro’s girlfriend.”
Iris: “That’s not how it works, Teacher Yu. I’m his girlfriend, not his wife.”
“Enough!” Jin Liwei snarled. He crushed her into a tight hug.
“What is wrong with you?!” Iris couldn’t understand him. She wanted to stomp her foot on his leg. However, she stopped herself. They were in front of his brothers, after all. She would give him face in front of them…but only this time.
The three men looked at each other, staying quiet, as they watched their Third Brother throwing a tantrum. They wished their Third Sister-in-law good luck in their hearts.
Seeing her controlling an angry expression, Jin Liwei realized he went too far. “Sorry, baby. I didn’t mean it. Let’s go eat?”
She ignored him, looking around the place instead.
The view was breathtaking. The clear lake reflected the blue sky and the white clouds.
There was a kitchenette under the pergola with a granite countertop, sink and stove. There was also a big barbeque grill. The dining table was long and wide with a vase of flowers freshly picked from the garden. The group sat around the table on comfortable cushioned seats.
Jin Liwei continued to coax his sulking baby girl by hugging her and giving little kisses all over her face, hair, neck and her hands.
Iris slowly melted and responded to his tender ministrations. She was just too attracted to this man. She held his face with a delicate hand and couldn’t help but shower light kisses all over his lips and jaw. She sighed in satisfaction as he rubbed her back, comforting her.
The two completely forgot that they weren’t alone.
As for the other three men, they were forced to eat all the dogfood this couple kept on throwing at them. They couldn’t believe that the amorous man in front of them was the same person as their cold and indifferent Third Brother.
