His Genius Wife is a Superstar

"I…I think I want to leave…" Jiang Ying Yue's neutral expression cracked, finally showing how upset she was about Long Hui talking to Wu Qianxi. Her hands clenched into tight fists. Her body tensed, making her muscles flex and stand out even more.

"Girl! What are you saying?" Chen Fei couldn't believe Jiang Ying Yue. "You look strong but you're actually so weak! A fly is buzzing around your man in front of your eyes, yet you're not going to do anything? If I were you, I would've grabbed my stilettos and stabbed that ho to death, and then send her to the special hell where itchy women like her who seduce taken men belong."

"Yeah, I agree!" Meimei said.

Surprisingly, Long Jinjing also nodded in agreement.

Iris only looked at Jiang Ying Yue, waiting for her decision.

"I don't...I don't want that woman near Hui. I want her to go away," Jiang Ying Yue finally shared her honest thoughts.

Iris smiled at her answer. She had no idea that her feelings of protectiveness for her friend was being reinforced by the inconspicuous remnant inside her. It was making her bolder and more daring.

"Come on, girls. Let's go and swat that big fly away."

Without waiting for their reply, she flipped her hair back and started walking towards Long Hui and Wu Qianxi's direction. Chen Fei decisively followed her. Of course, Long Jinjing followed her best friend. Meimei followed them but quickly returned to drag Jiang Ying Yue who didn't move from her spot.

A natural path opened up for them. The surrounding people just felt compelled to give way to Iris without being asked. Some of them even greeted her warmly. She gave them a dazzling smile and a few waves. Their eyes were riveted to her smooth leg popping in and out of her dress with every step.

Finally, Iris and the others reached Long Hui and Wu Qianxi. The girls formed a semi-circle around the two, effectively trapping them to the wall.

Long Hui looked confused at first, but when he saw Jiang Ying Yue behind the others, he realized what his current situation must've looked like to others. He immediately distanced himself from Wu Qianxi and stood beside Jiang Ying Yue.

Iris and Chen Fei caught the displeasure in Wu Qianxi's expression before she quickly covered it up with a smile. Their eyes narrowed at the other woman's quick change in expression. Long Jinjing and Meimei didn't catch it. Jiang Ying Yue didn't notice it either because she was focused on Long Hui.

"Elder Brother Hui, I don't believe I've met this 'acquaintance' of yours before. Could you introduce us?" Iris asked in her sweetest voice.

Chen Fei gasped in an exaggerated manner. "Xiulan, don't tell me you don't know who Miss Wu Qianxi is. She's a popular international interior designer!"

"Oh? Interior designer?" Iris tilted her head to the side before turning to Long Hui. "Elder Brother Hui, you're hiring this interior designer? For which place? The Gold Heights unit? Have you consulted with your 'girlfriend' first?" Without waiting for his reply, she directly asked Jiang Ying Yue instead. "Ying Yue, did you know about your boyfriend's plans of redecorating your unit?"

"Uh, no…" Jiang Ying Yue was too surprised at being asked suddenly that she just blurted out her answer without thinking about it first.

Both Iris and Chen Fei released exaggerated gasps of horror. To their side, Meimei was struggling to control herself. She wanted to laugh so badly. As for Long Jinjing, she just stayed quiet but her stance showed that she supported what her best friend and sister were doing.

"Elder Brother Hui, how can you not tell your 'girlfriend' first?" Iris looked at Long Hui as if he just committed an unpardonable crime.

Long Hui cleared his throat, feeling uncomfortable all of a sudden. He moved closer to Jiang Ying Yue. Then he explained to Iris, "You're mistaken, little sister. I'm not planning on redecorating anything. Wu Qianxi and I are just talking as old friends."

Then he began making introductions.

"Nice to meet all of you," Wu Qianxi greeted them with wide smile. "I just returned to the country from the U.S., that's why I'm very excited to reconnect with Hui. We're 'very close'." Then she turned to Jiang Ying Yue. "Hi, there. I remember you. You're Hui's bodyguard, aren't you? Are you on duty right now?"

Iris' eyes turned cold.

Jiang Ying Yue paled but still answered. "N-no. I'm not his bodyguard anymore."

"Ying Yue is my girlfriend and the mother of my son," Long Hui told Wu Qianxi. He also hooked his hand around her waist to prove his point.

Wu Qianxi looked furious for less than a second before putting on a surprised expression. "Oh. So she's the one. I see. I didn't expect that you'll get together with your former bodyguard... Oh! Please do forgive my careless words. They're not meant to be offensive."

"Do you have amnesia or something? Xiulan just referred to Big Sis Yue as Big Brother Hui's girlfriend just a few moments ago and yet you're acting so surprised now," Meimei mumbled under her breath.

Wu Qianxi's expression wavered but she still smiled at Meimei. "Ah, forgive me. I must've missed it earlier. It's quite noisy here especially with a lot of people present in this party. Not to mention that I'm still suffering a bit from jet lag."

"Miss Wu, you just mentioned that you're 'very close' to Big Brother Hui. I thought the two of you already broke up. Do you still maintain communications with each other?" Chen Fei asked.

"Yes."

"No."

Long Hui frowned at Wu Qianxi's answer. "We stopped all communications after we broke up." Then he turned to Jiang Ying Yue. "We really have no communications at all. This is the first time that we've talked to each other since we broke up."

"Hui, what do you mean by that? I always send you greetings on your birthday or during New Year."

"But I never once replied to you. That's not communication," Long Hui said.

This time, Wu Qianxi wasn't able to maintain her friendly expression any longer. Her lips were still smiling, but the look in her eyes hardened.

"Oh, then that means that you're not 'very close' at all," Chen Fei interjected. "Miss Wu, that's very misleading, you know."

"I agree," Iris nodded sagely. "What if Elder Brother Hui's 'girlfriend' here misunderstands? What's more, they already have a child together. Be careful because others might accuse you of being a homewrecker, Miss…uh, Miss…" She turned to Chen Fei and asked in a loud whisper, "What's her name again? I forgot."

"Miss Wu. Her name is Miss Wu Qianxi," Chen Fei whispered to Iris' ear, making sure that it was loud enough for the entire group to hear, including Wu Qianxi herself.

Wu Qianxi turned red from humiliation and fury.
