A hand pressed down on Iris' shoulder, the firm yet gentle weight giving her a silent warning. Thanks to the sudden touch, she was able to regain control of her violent emotions which until a couple of seconds ago were in serious danger of erupting because of Long Jufang's careless and insulting remark about her showbiz career.
"Did you wait long, little sister? Here, I got you some cakes, mousse, and pudding. I got a little bit of everything that is chocolate," Long Jian announced from behind her before placing a big plate of various small slices of chocolate-flavoured desserts on the table with his right hand while his left hand remained on her shoulder.
Iris' eyes lit up, saliva immediately flooding inside her mouth, as soon as she saw the plate of delicious-looking desserts. The sweet and rich chocolate aroma wafted to her nose and somehow masked the foul smell of everybody else in the party.
