59 Sleepover (1/2)
Gold Heights Condominium.
It was just after 7 PM when Iris and Dom arrived at the building's underground parking area. After her guesting at DJ Song's radio show earlier that day, they headed to her magazine photoshoot and interview. It also went well and they wrapped up earlier than expected.
The private elevator stopped at the main lobby. Iris instructed Dom to meet and pick up Jin Liwei who was already waiting outside.
Dom was, of course, super excited when he heard that Jin Liwei would be staying over for dinner. Based on his reactions, it was as if he was the one having a clandestine meeting with his lover.
When Iris saw Jin Liwei following after Dom and walking towards her, she didn't notice that her heart skipped a beat. She just vaguely assumed that she was too tired, so she couldn't breathe properly.
Dom allowed Jin Liwei to enter the elevator first before stepping inside after him. When the door closed, his sparkling eyes took several not-so-secret glances at the couple beside him.
Jin Liwei wore casual clothes. A simple black cotton long-sleeved shirt showed off his wide shoulders, lean muscled chest, and trimmed waist. He completed the look with jeans and a pair of black sneakers. It was the first time that both Iris and Dom saw him out of his business suit. He looked younger than he usually appeared.
In his arms, he carried a huge bouquet of yellow roses which he handed to Iris.
”Thank you.” Iris received the bouquet with a smile and smelled the roses.
”Give me my thank you kiss,” he said.
She hesitated, tilting her head to one side. She knew that in this country, kissing as a form of gratitude was not common, but some modern-thinking and open-minded people did it. Many of them had experienced living abroad especially in Western countries. As for her, it was normal for her to kiss her father and older brother in her previous life whenever she greeted or thanked them.
What should she do, then? Should she kiss him or not? Well, she and Jin Liwei already kissed before so...
She stood on her tippy-toes and pressed her lips quickly on his cheek. It was an innocent thank you kiss.
But then his hand snaked around her waist, pulling her close to his side. Then he used his other hand to lift her chin and gave her a longer and hotter kiss on the mouth, nibbling and sucking on her lips. ”That's my you're welcome kiss.” His voice was low and husky.
Beside them, the ignored lightbulb Dom was like a fish out of water, his mouth opening and closing as he stared at the couple. His hands were itching for his phone. He expended a huge amount of willpower not to take photos and videos of the hot scene being played live in front of him by his boss and future sir boss.
”Don't forget my hello kiss,” Jin Liwei shamelessly demanded.
Iris blinked a few times. Huh? He wanted more? She pursed her lips, turned her head, and ignored him.
”Hm? Don't be shy. It's just a hello kiss.”
Well, true. It was just a hello kiss. She still felt a little conflicted, but she didn't really mind kissing him that much. It felt good, and she liked things that felt good. She once again stood on her tippy-toes and gave another quick peck on his cheek.
Jin Liwei smiled widely and dove for another deep kiss, licking her lips before reluctantly releasing her.
Huh? Was this normal? She would kiss him on the cheek and then he would kiss her on the mouth? She would search this up later. Perhaps she wasn't aware of some sort of custom or tradition.
His kisses felt nice, to be honest...
She leaned her head against his chest afterwards and felt a little dazed. His now familiar masculine scent was making her want to burrow closer in his embrace.
Hmm...this was nice...
