The symphony orchestra musicians on the double grand staircases all leaned forward, while the household staff edged closer. They all pricked their ears to listen.
"Are you serious?" Iris asked. She looked up at Jin Liwei in disbelief.
"Of course, I'm serious," he replied. And indeed, his expression showed that he was.
She released a heavy sigh. "Darling, didn't I already tell you that I don't acknowledge being in a relationship with you before you officially asked me and I agreed to be your girlfriend? I don't understand why you would think that we became lovers when you first kissed me. I remember wanting to punch you on the face that time. I even borderline hated you."
The eyes of the symphony orchestra musicians and the household staff widened.
Wow! They didn't know about this. How interesting!
They all leaned forward a bit more to the point that some of the musicians almost fell down the stairs. Fortunately, their colleagues caught them.
