His Genius Wife Is A Superstar

Chapter 16 - Russian Men Are Hot

Chapter 16: Russian Men are Hot

Iris Long stiffened, realizing her mistake. How careless of her!

She just saw the word Galaktika in Russian on the file and totally lost her sense. She was familiar with the company from her past life.

What should she do now?

She changed her expression into a playful one and chuckled. "Just spouting nonsense from my imagination. You believed me?"

His eyes narrowed in suspicion, studying her.

"Do you always believe what other people say, Mr. Jin? I expected more from the President-CEO of Jin Corporation."

He growled.

"Goodbye, Mr. Jin." She shoved the folder to his chest, hurriedly snatched her book from his hand and grabbed her purse from the couch.

She was about to leave when the damn man pulled her arm. His fingers gripped her arm tightly, not letting her escape.

"Wait."

She took a deep breath and looked at him coldly. "Mr. Jin, you're very rude."

"Do you really know Russian?"

She thought for a moment, but decided to be honest. Whether he believed her or not was not her problem. "Yes."

"How? When?"

"Self-study. During my free time."

"Why?"

Feeling annoyed, she tried to shake him off but his hold on her arm was tight. She sighed and looked at the ceiling, forcing herself to calm down.

The warmth from his hand holding her arm was making her heartbeat faster. An enemy, no doubt about it. This must be her body telling her to stay away from this dangerous man. Must be her fight or flight instinct. Why else would her heart rate increase?

"Why did you learn Russian?" he repeated.

"Because I want to pick up Russian men! That's why! Russian men are hot, don't you know?"

He scowled.

Her phone rang. Thank goodness!

"Can you let me go now, Mr. Jin? I need to answer my phone."

He reluctantly let go of her.

She opened her purse and took out the ringing phone before answering.

"Hello? Dom?...You're outside?...Good. I'm coming." She hung up and glared at Jin Liwei.

The damn man just looked at her with deep and unfathomable eyes. This man was dangerous, she thought, spooked by his gaze.

He leaned close to her and whispered. "I admit that you've become fascinating, Long Xiulan. I don't care whether this personality change of yours is fake or not. But you better stay far away from my brother."

She frowned.

Brother?

Did he mean Jin Chonglin?

According to her memories, the original Iris Long followed this Jin Chonglin around because he was one of the most famous male celebrities in the country. The number of his fans across Asia could form an army and win every war just for their sheer number alone.

The original Iris thought that she could leech off some of his fame by befriending such a superstar like him.

Unfortunately, the original Iris was dense and didn't notice Jin Chonglin avoiding her. Instead, she redoubled her efforts to befriend him to the point that she had someone tail him and report to her his whereabouts so she could follow him wherever he went.

Iris sighed, feeling exhausted all of a sudden. "Don't worry, Mr. Jin. I have no interest in your brother."

Jin Liwei smirked. "How believable."

"I don't care whether you believe me or not. You're a rude man, Mr. Jin. I don't want to see you ever again."

"Ah, but I have a feeling that we'll see a lot of each other from now on. Long Xiulan, I didn't know that you can be this interesting. As long as you stay away from my brother, I don't mind seeing you again myself." Amusement danced in his eyes.

Her mouth opened and closed. She was speechless. She had never felt so annoyed by another human being.

Her head started hurting.

Without replying, she turned and bolted out of the hotel.

Jin Liwei watched as the damn girl fled like a irritated bunny. So cute. A desire to see her again blossomed in his mind. Surprised at the thought, he frowned, regaining his usual cold expression.

His phone rang. It was Xu Tian, informing him that he had arrived outside the hotel. He walked out of the hotel to the waiting car. Xu Tian opened the rear door for him.

As the car drove away, Jin Liwei ordered, "Conduct another thorough investigation on Galaktika."

"Understood." After a few seconds, he asked, "May I ask the reason, President? We already checked Galaktika and the results indicate that it's clean."

"This time, look if they have connections to weapons smuggling, prostitution or human trafficking. Our earlier investigations didn't explore these areas."

He didn't entirely believe the damn girl, but he was a perfectionist. He could never rest easy if there was even a trace of doubt. It was better to be safe than sorry.

Xu Tian's eyes widened. Good thing that he was well-trained or he would have crashed the car.

"Buy information from the black market if you need to."

"Understood, President."
