His Genius Wife is a Superstar

Inside the bedroom.

Iris laid on the bed, staring at the ceiling. For the first time, the sound of water from the wall-mounted waterfall fountain failed to relax her.

'I love you.'

Jin Liwei's voice echoed in her mind.

Her breath suddenly couldn't keep up with the fast beating of her heart. Was she having a panic attack? But upon closer inspection, it didn't feel like anxiety. It felt more like…excitement?

"I need to search this up."

She was about to climb off the bed to grab her laptop from the study table when the bathroom door opened, revealing a freshly-showered Jin Liwei. He looked flushed from the hot shower. A towel was wrapped low around his hips. He was drying his wet hair with another towel.

Iris immediately forgot about her laptop. Her full attention was on Jin Liwei's long, lean and strong body which was muscled in the right places. She didn't notice that she swallowed a more than usual amount of saliva pooling inside her mouth.

Jin Liwei saw his baby girl ogling him. His mouth curved into a devilish smile. He was initially on his way to the walk-in closet for pyjamas but seeing his baby girl's current expression, he changed his mind. He headed straight to the bed instead.

The bed dipped under his weight.

Iris finally regained her senses. She blinked. "Put some clothes on first."

Instead of replying, he removed the towel around his hips. He was already hard and standing.

It wasn't her first time seeing his erection, but she still couldn't help but widen her eyes. She inhaled sharply.

"I'll sleep commando tonight," he announced, tossing the towel to the bottom corner of the bed. He sat beside her in his full naked glory, nonchalantly drying his hair with the other towel.

"I…let me help you." She took the towel from him and gently rubbed it on his hair, trying not to stare at his little brother standing strong and proud. However, her traitor eyes kept on swerving to the direction of his crotch. Clearing her throat, she casually covered his lower body with the duvet before continuing to dry his hair.

Jin Liwei smirked, but didn't remove the duvet. He kept still and enjoyed this simple yet enjoyable moment of his baby girl drying his hair.

"I think it's dry enough," she announced when his hair felt only slightly damp. Then the towel in her hand followed the first towel at the foot of the bed.

"Thanks, baby."

She smiled at him.

He leaned closer until his face was only a couple of inches from hers. His eyes were dark and heavy with desire.

"I love you, Xiulan."

She forgot to breathe until her lungs protested and forced her to gasp much-needed air. Jin Liwei's gaze was too intense, so she avoided his eyes.

"Baby, look at me." He held her chin with his thumb and index finger, gently turning her face towards him.

She looked at him, feeling as if his eyes were burning her. She felt warm…and then hot.

He continued to look at her with his intense gaze, until she felt so hot that she couldn't take it anymore.

"Kiss me, Liwei…please…darling…"

Of course he granted her request. Softly, he pressed his lips on her sweet lips. Her eyes closed, sighing in satisfaction. However, he kept his eyes slightly open, watching her beautiful and sexy expressions as he kissed her.

He traced her lips with the tip of his tongue, and then nibbled on her lower lip. One of his hands slipped on her nape, gently holding her in place, while her other hand circled around her tiny waist, pulling her closer to him.

Her arms wrapped around his neck. She attempted to deepen the kiss, but he held back. A furrow formed between her brows. She opened her eyes and pouted, silently expressing her dissatisfaction.

His mouth curved into a smile. He traced light kisses from the corner of her mouth to her cheeks and finally to her ear. Then he whispered, "Are you still on your period?"

"Oh." She blinked, remembering that, indeed, she was still on her period. Fortunately, it was now the light flow towards the end of a normal menstruation. Her hospital stay helped regulate the unusual heavy bleeding she experienced at the start.

"Yes," she replied.

He kissed the side of her neck. "Are you still in pain?"

She tilted her head to the side, thinking, but this position also gave him easier access to her neck. She shivered when he licked it. "No…well, a little…" she admitted, panting a little from his touch. "But it's more tender than painful."

"Where?" His voice was low and husky.

"My breasts…"

"Where else?"

"My lower abdomen…and my lower back…"

He straightened and looked at her. His earlier desire-filled face was now marred by a concerned frown. "I think you should still be in the hospital." Then he released her and started climbing off the bed. His movements caused the duvet to slide off his lower body, and his little brother down below popped out again to greet her. "Let's go back to the hospital. Let me just put on some clothes."

Iris blinked, needing a couple of seconds to process what he just said. "Wait, no! Liwei, I'm alright now. I don't need to go back to the hospital."

"But your breasts, abdomen and lower back are not alright yet."

"I'm on my period, Liwei. This is normal."

"But―"

"Dr. Ching already discharged me, so it means that I'm alright. I trust my doctor. If I'm really not well yet, he won't let me out of the hospital."

His lips pressed together. He was still clearly worried for her. His erection was now softening up.

Iris noticed this and sighed. She felt a little disappointed, but she was more touched by his concern for her health.

She smiled and laid back on the bed. She pulled on his arm, wordlessly telling him to lay beside her. When he still hesitated, she pulled harder.

Having no choice but to obey his beautiful baby girl, he sighed and laid beside her, pulling the duvet over them.

She immediately placed her head on his arm and pressed her body close to his, throwing her arm and leg over him.

The corners of his mouth lifted. Following her lead, he wrapped his other arm around her waist and pulled her closer. Then he kissed her forehead.

The two inhaled each other's scents, feeling content, as they savoured this sweet moment of cuddling.
