Iris snapped out of her momentary daze and rolled her eyes at her husband. "I'm just admiring a beauty. What's wrong with that?"
Jin Liwei's dark expression turned grim. "So you like him?"
She released an exasperated sigh. "How could I like him when I don't even know anything about him? I just think that he has a beautiful face, that's all. I'm also like this when I see a beautiful cat or dog, or better yet an excellent computer, so stop feeling jealous, okay?"
He felt a little better after her explanation but his stance became much more protective over his wife as René Alejandro and the beautiful, blue-eyed foreign man made their way to them.
"I think he's the one called Boss Emil," Iris whispered to him.
It was the name that she heard the other foreigner whispered to René Alejandro before they excused themselves in a hurry earlier.
Jin Liwei hadn't been interested before, but now that he saw this attractive man presumably called Boss Emil with his own eyes, he instantly became wary.
It was very rare for his wife to become stunned upon seeing an attractive man. He had seen what her brother, Nikolai Vetrov, looked like in a photo. His brother-in-law's appearance in his past life was no joke. Even a man like Jin Liwei had to admit that Nikolai Vetrov was a gorgeous man. Being around an attractive man like her brother had made Iris, no, Evelina immune to other good-looking men.
If not for Jin Liwei's relentless pursuit of his wife, he knew that Iris wouldn't fall for him based on his looks alone. He was aware that he was a handsome man but knew that he couldn't compare to his brother-in-law's past life's appearance.
Even another good-looking man like René Alejandro didn't move his wife. Maybe this was why Jin Liwei didn't feel as wary towards the Spaniard as he was now feeling with the arrival of this extremely beautiful man.
Jin Liwei didn't care if other people were stunned by the new arrival but it was a different story when it involved his wife. Her unusual reaction was enough to raise Jin Liwei's inner alarm bells.
"My, ooooooh my!!!" Wei Lan clutched her chest, unable to stop herself from ogling the beautiful, blue-eyed foreigner. "René, my dear, why don't you introduuuuuuuce us to your friend heeeeeeeeeeere?"
Like her, Randy looked like he had just seen a mouth-watering piece of prime meat that he couldn't wait to gobble up. It wasn't only them who were reacting this way. The surrounding guests—ladies and even a few men—couldn't conceal their lecherous gazes.
René Alejandro began introducing the beautiful man.
"Everyone, please meet my…uh, older brother. His name is Emilio Miguel. Like me and many of my brothers, he's also an orphan that Papá sponsored and sent to school to be educated."
"But René Alejandro is the only one who was lucky enough to be legally adopted by the vizconde," the beautiful man commented before smoothly saying, "A pleasure to meet all of you. Emilio Miguel at your service."

Fortunately, Randy hadn't completely lost all of his reasoning yet and was able to catch Wei Lan and support her before she could embarrass herself. Iris was relieved. [Read official chapters on W e b n o v e l (dot) com. Please stop supporting piracy. Also follow author on Instagram: @arriacross]
