Iris and the two managers laughed at Jin Chonglin. Their smiles were full of schadenfreude.
"Chen Fei is not pregnant, then," Iris said.
"How do you know that?!" Jin Chonglin asked.
"Because she hung up on you. It ans that you're wasting her ti by asking what she thinks is a stupid question, especially when you're calling her during office hours. If she's really pregnant, I don't think that she'll hide it from you. Chen Fei is a direct person, you know that. If you made her pregnant, she'll definitely tell you right away."
He thought about it and nodded. "You're right. My girlfriend is indeed a direct person." Then he glared at his manager. "You made panic for no reason!"
Lin Dong cleaned his ear with his pinkie. Then he cleared his throat. "Iris, you ntioned that you want Yin ixing to be cast in our TV adaptation of 'Queen of the Shadows'."
Iris nodded. "Yes. This is our LXC Studio's first major TV production. It's a given that Yin ixing should be included in the cast. Even if ii—I an, Princess Porkchop thinks that Yin ixing isn't suitable to play the female lead, there are still other important female supporting characters that she can play."
Tang Yiyi glanced at the character list. "We can let her try one of the main antagonist roles. She can have another breakthrough in her acting career if she plays sothing different."
Lin Dong: "That's a good idea. Ask her what she thinks. Her contract includes a clause that we should give her the final say in any work that we arrange for her."
Tang Yiyi: "I will talk to her after this eting."
Iris: "Sister Yiyi, I want Yin ixing to be the face of my perfu company, Liberté. We're planning to launch soon."
Tang Yiyi: "Send the details and I'll bring it up to Yin ixing."
Iris: "Alright. I'll have Clover contact you soon."
Jin Chonglin interrupted, "Hey! What about ?!"
"What do you an what about you?" Iris asked, confused.
Jin Chonglin: "You're not going to hire as the face of your perfu company?"
She paused. "Let think about it first."
He looked incredulous at her hesitation. He, the superstar Prince Lin Lin, got snubbed by this woman?!
Oh, right.
She was his sister-in-law, the wife of his older brother, Jin Liwei, CEO of Jin Corporation and the head of the Jin family. She was also a co-owner of LXC Studio. He gradually cald down.
Right.
This woman wasn't soone he could easily offend.
How could he forget that?
Not to ntion his older brother who would flay him alive if he ever offended his wife, her girlfriend Chen Fei might also really castrate him if he disrespected her friend and boss at Orchidia.
Jin Chonglin could only sigh at his pitiful self.
More and more, he felt his status in the family lowering. Perhaps he couldn't even compare to the status of the cats and dogs in the family.
Ah, how pitiful was he, the superstar Jin Chonglin!
Lin Dong, his manager who had known him for a long ti, could sense that Jin Chonglin was once again in the middle of one of his increasingly overdramatic thoughts.
"Don't mind him," he said to the other two ladies.
But at the end of the day, he was still Jin Chonglin's manager, so he couldn't help but say to Iris, "I think that you should still consider your brother-in-law as the ambassador of your perfu company. If you still insist on Yin ixing, you can have her as the ambassador for the perfus for females and Jin Chonglin as the ambassador for the perfus for males."
Iris tilted her head to the side, thinking, before giving a shallow nod. "What you said makes sense, but I still need to think about it."
Lin Dong: "Okay."
He already did his best to fight for this opportunity for Jin Chonglin. If Iris still didn't choose him, then that was just Jin Chonglin's bad luck.
Jin Chonglin finally returned to his senses and found that everyone was absorbed in the eting. The topic was now on Iris' coback, specifically the launch of her next album in collaboration with Enrique Valdez and co-produced by JJ.
He also joined in the discussion. This ti, Jin Chonglin was more serious, relieving Lin Dong's silent worries.
The eting ended without any delay.
Lin Dong drove Jin Chonglin to his next work appointnt while Tang Yiyi headed to her own office to call Yin ixing.
As for Iris, Dom arrived just in ti to pick her up with the driver and bodyguards. They all headed to JJ's record company to continue recording her new album.

Ti flew by.
The new cafeteria at Long Industries that Iris Long sponsored was finally completed. She personally unveiled it with Long Tengfei.
All the staff couldn't wait to enter and try out all the different food choices that weren't only generous but also nutritious.
Iris, as the Deputy CMO, and Long Tengfei, as the President-CEO, cut the ribbon for the grand re-opening.
Everyone clapped.
When the mont the doors opened for everyone, audible gasps of shock, awe, and excitent could be heard everywhere.
"Wow! Is this really our new cafeteria?!"
"It's like a hotel buffet!"
"Look there! We have desserts!"
"It's not only like a buffet. There are also booths for different styles of cuisines."
"I've only seen pictures of Orchidia's cafeteria which made so envious. Now that we have our own here, I can finally brag to my family and friends!"
These employees took many photos and videos as they marvelled at their new cafeteria. The dia got ahold of them, and soon, gossip sites and accounts featured news about Iris Long sponsoring a new cafeteria at her father's company, Long Industries.
Notably absent from the grand re-opening was Long Hui.
Long Jian sidled up to her and whispered, "Long Hui left the company early. It seems that he doesn't want to embarrass himself even further after what happened to his forr in-laws who are now imprisoned with his ex-wife."
