His Genius Wife is a Superstar

When everyone entered the bedroom, the first person they saw was an unfamiliar woman. Huang Yuyan didn't bother to inquire about the person's identity first because she was more concerned about the vomiting sounds coming from the bathroom. The door was open so she headed straight there.

She saw her eldest son supporting and rubbing the back of her new daughter-in-law who was currently bent over the toilet bowl and dry-heaving in a pitiful manner. Jin Liwei looked extremely worried, as if seeing his wife's suffering was giving him actual physical pain.

"Oh, poor dear!" Huang Yuyan didn't hesitate to rush forward and push her own son to the side to support her daughter-in-law herself. She was a small woman but had no problem taking over. She rubbed Iris' back while murmuring soothing words. Then she glanced at her son who was hovering anxiously behind them. "Make yourself useful and go get a damp towel!"

It took a few seconds for his mother's instruction to register in Jin Liwei's mind but when it did, he moved quickly and returned with a damp towel in his hand. He was about to use it to cool his wife's sweaty forehead but his mother snatched the towel from him and did it herself.

"Mother, I'll do it—"

Yang Jiahui and Grandma Li also entered the bathroom by this time. The bathroom was huge so there was plenty of space for everyone. With the arrival of the two additional ladies, however, Jin Liwei was pushed farther away from his wife. He wanted to stay by his wife's side but his grandmother kicked him out of the bathroom, saying that the women knew how to take care of his wife better.

Although reluctant, he forced himself to leave the bathroom because he trusted his mother and grandmother. Yang Jiahui was also a kind person who never attempted to harm his wife despite being bullied by the original Long Xiulan in the past. Nevertheless, he still hovered by the door, not wanting for his wife to leave his sight especially right now that she was suffering so much like this.

"Excuse me, sir," the private doctor said.

He moved to the side and allowed the female doctor to enter the bathroom to join the other women in taking care of his wife. Then all of a sudden, a powerful force slammed him on the back and almost made him vomit his internal organs.

"Bahahahaha! Is this what this old man is thinking? Tell me, Liwei my boy! I want to know!" Grandpa Lu continued to "pat" Jin Liwei's back.

Gritting his teeth, Jin Liwei endured the old man's overenthusiastic display of affection. He and his sworn brothers, except for Lu Zihao, secretly agreed among themselves that Grandpa Lu's "pats" had become much more powerful lately.

Wang Yingjie speculated that it might be due to Lu Zihao becoming more muscular and physically stronger. Whenever Grandpa Lu "patted" his grandson, Lu Zihao never reacted and always looked unaffected. It was as if those dangerous pats were nothing to him. Perhaps the old man increased the force of his "pats" in order to elicit a reaction from his grandson. The only problem was that he didn't think to adjust these new more powerful "pats" whenever he did it on Jin Liwei and his other honourary grandsons.

Fortunately, Grandpa Lu didn't "pat" him for too long. The old man was busy basking in his happiness.

"Liwei," Long Tengfei called.

Jin Liwei turned. "Father."

Long Tengfei glanced at the scene in the bathroom. There was great worry in his eyes but also excitement and hope. [This novel is a contracted work with W e b n o v e l . c o m (remove spaces).

"Is my daughter…?"

Jin Liwei didn't realize that the corners of his mouth curved upwards. "Yes, my wife is pregnant."

"Bahahahaha! Congratulations, my boy! Today is a wonderful day!" Grandpa Lu was over the moon with joy.

Long Tengfei had a complicated expression at first but it was quickly replaced by excitement. "This is wonderful news. A child is always a blessing in the family. I'm very happy for you and my daughter."

"Thank you, Father."

Jin Liwei was about to thank the old man next but saw Grandpa Lu "patting" Wang Yingjie's back. His second brother threw him a helpless look as he, too, endured the "pats". Grandpa Lu continued laughing in happiness.

Grandma Li came out of the bathroom and scolded her friend. "Stop laughing so much, you noisy old gorilla! If you want to celebrate, go outside where our granddaughter-in-law won't be able to hear you. She's suffering so much and yet you're laughing like a stupid buffoon."

Grandpa Lu immediately stopped laughing and even managed to look like a guilty child who got scolded for being too naughty. Then he peered inside the bathroom at Iris who was still vomiting. "Sorry, my girl! Your beloved grandpa isn't laughing at you! This old man is just very happy—"

"Alright, that's enough." Grandma Li cut him off. "Just be quiet for now. Xiulan dear is pregnant and her private doctor says that her emotions are very sensitive right now. Don't agitate her."

Grandpa Lu nodded. True to his word, his booming voice became quiet. Long Tengfei began talking to Wang Yingjie who assured him that his pregnant daughter would be fine despite her worrying symptom.

As for Jin Liwei, he continued hovering by the bathroom doorway. He wanted to stay by his wife's side but the women surrounded her and left no room for him. If it were any other people, he would've already forced his way through to reach his wife. However, there was his mother and grandmother. He couldn't just push them away like other people.

His heart felt like it was being squeezed as he watched his wife whimpering in-between the dry-heaving. Yang Jiahui was wiping the tears and sweat from her face but Iris still looked miserable.

Finally, Iris was able to speak. "Li-Liwei…."

He was already rushing to her as soon as he heard her calling his name. Fortunately, his mother and the others made space for him. He knelt beside his wife and once again took over in comforting her as she continued to dry-heave.
