A Losing Battle

Since the first time I had encountered Jin Longwen, I knew right away he would have a long line of admirers. No matter how much he stayed behind the scene and let someone did his call in the public, a man like him would never be able to hide his charm for long.

I guessed because I knew that deep down, it did not come as a surprise when one Iris had suddenly popped out.

There was a brief tense silence between us after what I had said. However, before long Iris' lips arched into a casual smile. Folding her arms, she stood staring at me seemingly unperturbed.

"What are you doing?" She asked.

I scoffed at that innocent question. "Look, I have had a long day today--"

"Yeah, clearly, from what I've seen in the news."

I raised an eyebrow.
