Chapter 1552 Please Wake Up, Chonglin
Chapter 1552 Please Wake Up, Chonglin
In the end, Chen Fei literally kicked out Jin Chonglin for taking too long to "pack" his luggage.
He made her so exhausted! Even now as she watched Lin Dong drag the reluctant Jin Chonglin away, her legs still felt shaky.
"You must miss me, babe!"
Chen Fei gritted her teeth. The man still dared to have that much energy after tossing and turning her in their bedroom!
"Go home and work!" she scolded him.
He grinned. "Okay! I'll work hard and save lots of money for our future baby's milk and diapers!"
She couldn't take it anymore. She removed her slipper and threw it at him.
Jin Chonglin dodged and immediately climbed into the waiting vehicle. "Hehehe."
He rolled down the window and stuck his head out. Then he waved his hand and sent her flying kisses. "I'll miss you, babe! You must answer my calls and texts or I'll come flying back to find you!"
"You dare!" Lin Dong glared at him. "Your schedule is packed!"
Jin Chonglin ignored his long-time manager. Always nagging in his ears. So annoying!
He instructed one of the bodyguards patrolling the residence, "Please pick up my wife's slipper and give it back to her. Thanks!"
"I'm not your wife yet!" Chen Fei yelled at him, feeling exasperated.
"You will be soon!" he yelled back at her. "Bye! I love you!"
Two seconds pause.
"Hey! Where's my 'I love you' back?!" he demanded.
She rolled her eyes.
"I'm not leaving if you don't tell me that you love me, too!"
She still didn't say anything.
"Time to go," Lin Dong said after he sat beside Jin Chonglin in the backseat.
"No! My wife hasn't told me that she loves me too yet!" Jin Chonglin continued to act like a petulant child.
"Miss Chen, COO Chen, oh great almighty Chen Fei!" Lin Dong began begging. "Please just humour this naughty little boy or he won't stop throwing a tantrum! Please help me out here. I'm gonna go bald soon if he doesn't stop being a headache!"
Chen Fei sighed. "Fine. I love you too, you little sh*t! So go home now and work hard! If I hear from Manager Lin that you're slacking off and reneging on your work contracts, you can go find yourself another wife!"
Jin Chonglin didn't mind her potty mouth at all. In fact, her swear words made him feel all warm and fuzzy inside. "Love you, babe! Mwah!"
Lin Dong shivered.
Before, Jin Chonglin's string of women were the ones who clung to him, never wanting to let him go despite him quickly losing his interest in them. Now, however, Lin Dong could never have imagined that Jin Chonglin would be the one to act like a disgustingly clingy lover to Chen Fei.
Was this because of true love?
He glanced at Chen Fei standing by the residence's huge double doors. She looked tough as nails, but there was a soft look in her eyes as she watched Jin Chonglin.
Lin Dong sighed. Perhaps this was true love. n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
He looked at Jin Chonglin who refused to settle back in his seat and continued waving at Chen Fei through the open car window.
Finally, the vehicle drove out of the Parisian residence.
It was as if a switch had turned off.
Jin Chonglin's expression became bored and he settled on his seat. He began rummaging through his bag before fishing out a set of large, stylish headphones customized with his name.
Before he could put it on, Lin Dong asked, "Do you really want to marry Miss Chen?"
Jin Chonglin paused his movements before giving his manager a side-eye. "Of course. Do you think that I would propose to her if I don't want to marry her?"
"But you also proposed to Fan Luo before, didn't you? Did you also want to marry her?"
Jin Chonglin glared at his manager. "Don't bring up that evil woman to me! You know about our situation back then! I was pressured to marry her because she pretended to get pregnant and our mothers were best friends. I was just being a real man and taking responsibility. Anyway, I don't want to talk about my past with that criminal ever again. If possible, I want to erase that part of my past from my memory."
"I'm sorry."
Lin Dong felt bad about bringing it up. It was a traumatic memory for Jin Chonglin.
Back then, none of them expected that Jin Chonglin's fiancée, Fan Luo, would be so evil that she would attempt to literally murder Iris Long. If Iris hadn't been so lucky, she would have already been dead for a long time. Although she did suffer a lot by being comatose for a year and all, it was still many times better than being dead.
"I'm just making sure that you're not playing, Chonglin," Lin Dong said. "Remember that Miss Chen is different from Fan Luo. She's an important executive and friend of Iris. If you hurt her, Iris won't let you off. And if Iris has a grudge against you, then CEO Jin won't let you off either."
"I already know this!" Jin Chonglin looked frustrated and helpless at the same time. "Sister Xiulan already warned me about this and so did all her friends! Even my big bro already warned me, too! Why does everyone keep on telling me this? Am I so untrustworthy in your eyes?"
"Chonglin, let's be real here. Take a look at your history with women before. If it hadn't been so, er, colourful then nobody would doubt your intentions with Miss Chen."
Jin Chonglin pursed his lips but he didn't retort this time. He tossed his headphones away, not interested in using them anymore.
Lin Dong sighed. "I'm not saying that you're not capable of true love. Everyone deserves true love. That's what I believe. But I'm just here to remind you that being too impulsive when it comes to important life events like marriage and having children is not recommended. You'll not only hurt your career, but you'll also hurt Miss Chen. And if you still insist on having a baby with her, you'll also hurt your child."
"I love her, okay?!" Jin Chonglin spread his arms wide to make a point. "I have never loved a woman like I love Chen Fei! Yes, I did enjoy other women's company! I did love sleeping with different women! But that was before! What I want right now is to marry the woman I love and build a happy family with her! And I believe that woman is Chen Fei! Is that too much to ask?!"
The two looked at each other. The driver had already long activated the divider to give the two much-needed privacy.
Jin Chonglin looked utterly frustrated. And exhausted.
"Fine, I admit that I've been very impulsive recently. I just can't help myself. I feel like if I don't make the first moves, then Chen Fei would get away from me. Have you seen her? She's so smart, confident, independent, and successful. I bet so many b*stards are eyeing her. I didn't think that I would fall for someone like her, but look at me now. I can't stop thinking about her. I can't stop wanting to be with her. Even when she cusses me out, I love it. There are times that I even feel horny when she swears at me."
Lin Dong looked at him as if he was a weird pervert. Good thing that Jin Chonglin didn't notice. If he did, then he might be arrested for murdering his own manager.
"She's just so…special," Jin Chonglin continued. "So very different from what I believed to be my type. I also feel like myself whenever I'm with her. I don't have to pretend to be cool. She accepts me when I'm being childish—"
"Ah, so you do know that you're childish," Lin Dong couldn't help but comment.
Jin Chonglin almost wanted to punch his manager. Thankfully, he was able to control himself. "Sometimes! Only sometimes!"
"Yeah, right. Sometimes."
Jin Chonglin's fist was really itching. But he held it down.
Lin Dong had been his manager right from the start. The man had been there with him when he was just a newcomer in showbiz. He was one of the first ones to believe in his talents and not just humour him because of his status as the second young master of the Jin family.
In short, Lin Dong had worked his a** off to allow Jin Chonglin to showcase his real talents. They had been together through thick and thin. Even when Jin Chonglin left Bright Summit Entertainment Company to build LXC Studio with Jin Liwei and Iris Long, Lin Dong still chose to follow him.
Their loyalty to each other transcended even that of best friends.
So even when Lin Dong scolded him, Jin Chonglin wouldn't disrespect him. Of course, more often than not, Jin Chonglin would still do whatever he wanted, especially when it came to his love life, but for the most part, Lin Dong was there to advise him.
Jin Chonglin pouted. He knew that Lin Dong was only thinking for his sake, but it was still frustrating that his manager would doubt his intentions toward Chen Fei.
"I'll prove to you and to everyone else that Chen Fei and I will last! We'll marry, build a beautiful family together, and make everyone envious! Hmph!"
Lin Dong was about to encourage him to work hard in fulfilling his promise, but Jin Chonglin just had to add the following words.
"My wife and I will make an even more beautiful family than Sister Xiulan and my big bro's!"
"Ah, please wake up, Chonglin. It's nice to dream and all but we have to be realistic here."
