Dragon Palace Home #10.
According to Dom, Iris woke up once in the vehicle while they were on their way to Jin Liwei’s property but slept again. Once they arrived at the mansion, Lu Zihao carried her to Jin Liwei’s bedroom suite. He and Dom stayed with her until Jin Liwei arrived from Jin Corporation.
The butler and the household staff were already informed beforehand that their master’s girlfriend would be arriving. Everyone was curious about who would be their potential future madam. After all, their master left the mansion to live with her a while ago. But when they finally saw her, they didn’t expect that she would arrive sleeping in the arms of Master Lu Zihao, one of their master’s best friends.
Then they became shocked when some of the younger servants recognized the beautiful sleeping woman as the celebrity Iris Long. Some of the maids and the houseboys were even members of the Black Stars. They felt excited finally seeing their Boss Iris in the flesh, but then they remembered the news that broke out earlier. They felt enraged on her behalf and now understood why their master brought her to his mansion.
Dragon Palace Homes was one of the most fortified exclusive villages in the country with the best security. She would be safe here from prying eyes or anyone who wanted to harm her.
Inside the bedroom, Jin Liwei headed straight to his baby girl who was still sleeping on his bed. He sat beside her and stroked her cheek, a pained expression on his face.
"Dominic, step outside, will you? I need to have an important talk with my Third Brother," Lu Zihao said.
"Okay, Big brother boss and sir boss. Please take care of boss!"
Dom tried taking Ice Cream and Popcorn with him outside, but the two kittens refused to leave Iris. They even started hissing and baring their claws at him in a threatening manner.
"Leave them," Jin Liwei said.
His kids wanted to stay with their Mommy. He would allow them for now, especially since it was their first time in his house. They must be feeling uncomfortable in this new environment.
After Dom left, the kittens quickly greeted Jin Liwei and rubbed themselves against him before curling into two plump fur balls beside their sleeping Mommy.
Jin Liwei kissed his baby girl’s forehead before standing up and leaving the bedroom with Lu Zihao. They sat in the suite’s lounging area just outside the bedroom. Jin Liwei looked very tense, clenching and unclenching his hands.
"Be careful when you tell her, Third Brother," Lu Zihao spoke first. "Choose your words wisely and be ready to face her wrath. She might even leave you."
Eternal damnation in exchange for the safety of one’s family or a righteous life in exchange of sacrificing one’s family? Lu Zihao would choose eternal damnation, hands down. F*ck righteousness! He would rather suffer the torments of hell for eternity rather than see his family suffer. Criminal or not, a family was a family.
Jin Liwei ran his hands through his hair in a rough manner. "I treated Fan Luo like family. F*ck! I’ve been so blind and stupid. I never expected that she harmed thirteen other women in addition to Xiulan. Four of them even died! If Xiulan wasn’t so lucky, she would’ve also died!"
’She already died,’ Lu Zihao commented in his mind.
"It’s only now when I ordered a full and thorough investigation on Fan Luo that I discovered that I’ve been protecting such an evil person. I almost allowed such a psycho to marry my own brother and become an official member of my family. This...I’ve wronged not only Xiulan but also my brother. I wish I had known earlier. My mother loved Fan Luo and the Fans so much that I just accepted them without thinking too much."
And now that the Fans’ mask had been shattered and their true nature revealed for everyone to see, the Jins were suffering from guilt because of their close connection to them.
’How stupid,’ Lu Zihao thought.
