His Genius Wife is a Superstar

Dragon Palace Home #10.

Jin Liwei decided to work remotely at home again today. He was eating lunch with his family.

Little Mochi and Little Matcha sat in their respective high chairs while their parents fed them mashed solid food.

Iris was in charge of feeding the well-behaved Little Matcha while Jin Liwei was struggling with all the mess Little Mochi was making.

"Jin Haoyu, eat your food properly," Jin Liwei reprimanded his eldest twin son.

Little Mochi giggled and smeared baby food all over his adorable face. Jin Liwei sighed and once again wiped his naughty, messy baby.

"Let's change places?" Iris suggested.

"No. Leave this naughty boy to me."

Jin Liwei was determined to teach his eldest twin son some proper manners. It was enough for him to deal the boy. His wife just needed to relax with their well-behaved youngest twin son.

Unfortunately, today was bound to end in failure.

Almost half of the baby food was splattered all over the place and only half ended up in Little Mochi's stomach. As a result, the naughty baby was still hungry. He wailed and demanded to eat more.

Iris took the wailing baby from her annoyed husband and gave Little Mochi a quick wipe before hiding in a corner to breastfeed. Jin Liwei followed while carrying Little Matcha.

"I think it's time to wean these boys," Jin Liwei said.

Iris was surprised. "But they're still so little…."

"I'm not saying that we'll wean them completely. We'll still feed them breast milk according to the doctor's recommendation but there's no need for you to continue letting them suck directly from your breasts. Besides, you're now gradually returning to work. It's not convenient to continue breastfeeding them."

"Let me think about it first," she said but his logic already somewhat persuaded her. Even so, she still gave him a look filled with suspicion. "Are you sure that's the only reason why you want me to stop breastfeeding?"

He didn't reply.

She narrowed her eyes. "Liwei, it's not good to be jealous of your own sons."

His lips pressed into a thin line. "I'm not jealous. They're my sons and I love them but these few months of sharing my wife's breasts with them is already my limit. They're also starting to teeth. What if they bite you? Won't you suffer then? Especially Little Mochi, that naughty boy. I can't let my sons hurt my wife."

"Oh, Liwei." She shook her head but there was a smile on her face. "You really know how to find a good reason to justify your jealousy. But since I know for a fact that you are a wonderful father, I'll think carefully about your suggestion. Okay?"

Jin Liwei was a little unhappy that she didn't agree right away but this was already a good start. At least, she didn't reject his suggestion as soon as he shared it with her.

"We still have a lot of your breast milk stored," he added. "Even if you pump less milk, we still have enough to feed our twins and their twin cousins."

Iris sighed as she remembered how they had to buy new freezers to store all her breast milk. The freezers were full again. As a matter of fact, they would soon run out of storage space again. Even with four babies (and one adult man), she was still able to produce a lot of excess breast milk. At this rate, she might have to once again try persuading her husband to donate the rest of the milk that they couldn't finish in time.

After Little Mochi was finally satiated, the babies were handed to the nannies. It was almost time for their next nap. Iris and Jin Liwei resumed their lunch. [Read official chapters on W e b n o v e l (dot) com. Please stop supporting piracy. Also follow author on Instagram: @arriacross]

"Excuse me, Mommy and Daddy! The cute and mighty Ketchup is here to report that Uncle Yehan entered Dragon Palace village and will arrive here at home in approximately...34 minutes and 21 seconds. Meow~"

"Do you have an appointment with Eldest Brother Yehan?" asked Iris.

Jin Liwei shook his head. "No, I didn't know that he was coming today."

"Uncle Yehan is not coming to visit Mommy or Daddy! He's coming because of Auntie Ying Yue! The cute and mighty Ketchup knows because Auntie Ying Yue received a call from Uncle Yehan. Mommy, Daddy, will Uncle Yehan marry Auntie Ying Yue? Then will Little Junjun have a new daddy? Ketchup likes Uncle Yehan more than Long Hui, that poopoo-head! Meow~"

"Ketchup, don't speak like that in front of your Aunt Ying Yue and Uncle Yehan," Jin Liwei said. "Understood?"

"Aaaaw!"

"Ketchup," Jin Liwei warned her.

"Okay, Daddy. Don't be so fierce on the cute and mighty Ketchup. So scary! Meow."

Iris said, "Maybe Eldest Brother wants to tell Ying Yue about the results of the defamation lawsuit."

"En, I think so, too."

The husband and wife already learned about the judge's final verdict in favour of Lin Yehan in his defamation lawsuit against Long Hui. Although both of them weren't completely satisfied with the punishment due to their personal grudge against Long Hui, the punishment was actually already quite heavy for this kind of crime.

"Jiang Ying Yue still doesn't know?" Jin Liwei asked.

"She already knows," Iris replied. "Dom informed her about it."

"But Eldest Brother still wants to tell her in person?" Jin Liwei raised an eyebrow.

Iris shrugged. "Let's leave them. It's none of our business if they want to meet and talk in person."

"En. Eldest Brother didn't tell me but according to my sources, he has been suppressing Mao Textiles by blocking their suppliers of raw materials. His influence and connections within the agricultural sector are enough to make trouble to the Maos."

She gave him a side eye. "Don't push all the blame on Eldest Brother. I know that you've also been retaliating against the Maos, specifically on that Mao Qiuyue."

Jin Liwei sneered. "They deserve it. How dare they use your name to get attention? That Mao woman even tries repeatedly to smear you for siding with Jiang Ying Yue instead of Long Hui. She needs to look at herself in mirror first before trying to ask for sympathy from the public at your expense. She's the third party who destroyed a family and she has the audacity to make Jiang Ying Yue and us the bad guys?

"Want to use my wife's name for free publicity? She's not worthy! Does she think that I, Jin Liwei, will allow her impudence to continue bothering my wife? She's not worthy!

"If that Mao woman wants attention, then I'll give it to her. I'll give her so much attention that she'll choke on it. Let the whole world know that she's a despicable homewrecker."

Iris patted her husband's arm. She could sense how furious he was at Mao Qiuyue. She knew that it wasn't just because of his protectiveness of her. He was also angry on behalf of their godson, Little Jun. When it came to ugly fights like this between exes, it would always be the child in the relationship who was the most vulnerable.

Mao Qiuyue's constant veiled insults on Jiang Ying Yue in the media would negatively affect Little Jun once he began to understand the situation. It wasn't good for a child to see his father's new lover belittling his mother in front of so many people. In a sense, this was also a form of emotional child abuse.

Iris kissed Jin Liwei, coaxing him to calm down. She approved his actions behind the scenes. The Maos wouldn't be able to gather any evidence proving that Jin Liwei had any hand in the troubles they were experiencing right now. This was in addition to Lin Yehan's suppression of Mao Textiles.

Nevertheless, Iris didn't want her husband to dwell too much on the matter with the Maos. They weren't worth wasting his precious time and energy. His little retaliation was enough.

Unless the Maos, specifically Mao Qiuyue, continued to act like a brainless idiot and court death.

Jin Liwei took his wife's hand and kissed it. He already felt better after venting his anger on Mao Qiuyue and the woman's family. If they only remained in the background like they did before, he wouldn't have to do all this. It was Mao Qiuyue's fault for daring to use his wife for clout and provoking him in the process.

"I'm looking forward to Long Hui's public apology," Iris said. "What if he refuses to do it?"

"He has to do it," Jin Liwei said, snorting. "If he doesn't, Eldest Brother will ask the judge to increase Long Hui's current punishment, maybe even demand some jail time."

Knowing Long Hui, he would want to avoid jail no matter what. If he really went to jail, it would be equivalent to saying goodbye to his chances of inheriting Long Industries. The prideful Long clan wouldn't want their next head to have any history of being arrested. This would be a huge source of shame to them. Even his supporters within the clan wouldn't be able to help him if that happened.

For this reason, it was highly likely that Long Hui would swallow his own pride and make a public apology in order to save himself. Iris and Jin Liwei had no expectations in the sincerity of the public apology, though.

"Long Hui still has his maternal family, the Zhengs, to support him," Iris said. "They're working together with the Maos to push Long Hui as Long Tengfei's successor."

"Long Hui has the Zhengs and the Maos but you have me, your husband, and the entire Jin clan behind you. Nikolai and Grandpa Lu are also always there for you. What do the Zhengs and the Maos have compared to us, the Jins and the Lus?"

Iris chuckled. "You're right."
