Jin Chonglin just finished taping a variety show episode as an invited guest. As usual, he was the bigshot among the celebrity guests present, so he had to spend a few minutes longer to receive everyone's greetings and respects.
He woke up at dawn that morning and had been working nonstop ever since. It was already the middle of the afternoon. He was exhausted but he still maintained a friendly smile, even when all he wanted was to tell everyone to leave him alone, so that he could rest even for just a few minutes before he started working again for his next job appointment at another location.
Fortunately, Lin Dong rescued him from the crowd, expertly leading him away and heading to the dressing room. The crowd was a little disappointed but didn't complain.
How could they complain? With just Jin Chonglin's presence alone, they were already certain that this episode would enjoy high ratings. He was very popular and in-demand that programs had to book him months ahead in order to fit in his full schedule.
Jin Chonglin sighed in relief as they reached his dressing room. Lin Dong opened the door and let Jin Chonglin enter first.
A strong floral perfume scent assaulted his nose as soon as he stepped inside. He almost gagged but was able to control himself.
What the hell?
Then he saw the person inside.
"Xiao Luo, what are you doing here?" He quickly tried to smooth the furrow between his brows, but her perfume was too strong that he didn't manage to erase the expression of dismay on his face.
Fan Luo pouted. "Big brother Lin, aren't you happy to see me?" She walked to him and clung to his arm, pressing her breasts against him.
Sighing inwardly, he forced his winning smile on his face. "Of course I'm happy to see you, babe. I just didn't expect that you'll come today. You should've called me first."
She giggled and batted her extra-long fake eyelashes. "I wanted to surprise you. I miss you so much…" She purred, wrapping her arms around his waist and rubbing her body against him.
Lin Dong coughed behind Jin Chonglin, a stoic expression on his face.
Fan Luo pursed her lips at Lin Dong. She knew very well that her fiancé's manager disliked her. Of course, Lin Dong would not dare say it directly to her face, but her female intuition knew that she and the manager would never become friends. After all, he was only a manager while she was the future wife. Anyone with sense could tell who was supposed to be more important. She ignored the manager and continued to rub herself against Jin Chonglin.
"Big brother, don't you miss me too?"
Jin Chonglin threw a helpless look at his manager. Her perfume was starting to give him a headache. Did the woman pour perfume into a tub and use it as bathwater?
He sighed inwardly. "Of course I miss you. I'm just tired. I've been up since dawn."
"Oh, my poor big brother Lin!" she exclaimed dramatically. Then she tip-toed and leaned close to his neck, kissing it, and whispered, "Do you want me to make you feel better? I miss you inside me. We haven't done it for over a week now. And the last time was too quick. We also only did it once. I want more. You're too busy these days. Let's do it here quickly. I want you so much!"
He pressed his lips together. He was not in the mood for this, for her. He couldn't muster any desire for the woman throwing herself at him at the moment. Besides, he was still at a workplace. He might be susceptible to female seduction, but he was too professional to f*ck while working.
Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to stay at his high position in the showbiz industry.
He put his hands on her shoulders and gently pushed her away from him. "Xiao Luo, I just told you I'm tired. And I still need to go to my next job after this. Be good, alright? Tell me why you're here."
"Big brother Lin, why are you acting like this? Do you hate me?" Her face immediately transformed into a wronged expression.
"Xiao Luo, stop it," he finally snapped. The throbbing on his temples was getting worse by the second.
"So you really don't love me anymore!" she cried. "Is it because of that sl*t Iris Long? Did she hook you with her dirty claws again? I knew it! She just can't leave you alone!"
"What are you talking about?! I never had any relationship with Iris Long. How many times do I have to tell you this?"
"But you defended her on Weibo before! Now you're even working under the same company! And then you performed on the same show last night! It's so obvious that she's chasing after you again! Are you starting to like her now? As expected of a shameless sl*t! What a wh*re!"
"Stop it! Listen to me. Don't ever drag her name in your posts again. You're being paranoid. I already told you that I never had any relationship with her but you keep on getting jealous over nothing. I'm tired of this, do you hear me? Do this again and I'll break up with you! Do you understand?"
Big, fat tears fell down from her heavily made-up face. "See? You're defending her again! You even want to break up with me because of that sl*t!"
Jin Chonglin couldn't take it anymore. He felt tired and his headache was getting worse because of her strong perfume and her unreasonable accusations. He lost his temper. "Try me, Fan Luo. Don't think that I won't break up with you just because we're engaged now."
She panicked. "Big brother Lin. You can't break up with me! I still can't get over the loss of our unborn baby. I'm still suffering from depression. If you leave me now, I'll kill myself!"
