His Genius Wife is a Superstar (Web Novel)
chapter-1108

So many things happened outside during Iris' bed rest. No matter how much she wanted to help or involve herself in these things, she couldn't because of her overprotective husband and two AI children.

This time, the newly awakened Bacon became even stricter than his dad and no longer went along with whatever Iris wanted if he judged that it would put her and his twin human baby siblings in danger. Although nobody was blaming him, it appeared that Bacon felt extremely guilty after letting Iris jump out of the executive van that night and afterwards watching her almost miscarry.

"Mother, please don't be hardheaded again. It's not classy." Bacon's swishing, fluffy, black tail paused before he quickly corrected his words. "Mother is still the classiest person in the world. Just your impulsive actions are not classy. That's what Bacon meant."

Iris felt helpless at her AI son's newfound strictness on her. He was worse than his dad, her husband Jin Liwei. She could no longer coax him even after offering him red packets. The kid was becoming more and more unbending like his Uncle Zihao, no, his Uncle Nikolai.

Was this the effect of Bacon becoming the power flood? Or was it just because of the kid's guilt about playing a role in her miscarriage scare?

She wasn't exactly sure.

Like him, she also felt guilty about endangering her babies. Fortunately, her music mentor Enrique Valdez's lecture helped her to start the process of forgiving herself.

There were so many things that she wanted to do—needed to do—but weren't able to because of her current condition. She had no choice but to admit that her current pregnant body couldn't handle all the tasks that she wanted to accomplish, especially after almost miscarrying her babies which injured her vitality at this point in time.

At the moment, all she could do was trust in her husband and their two AI children. She and Jin Liwei had been worrying about the power flood having a negative effect on Bacon's already vicious personality, but so far, their Baby Bacon was still the Bacon they knew and loved. Sure, he had become more intense and brooding like his maternal uncle, but at least he hadn't threatened to destroy the whole world with his newly acquired power. But that was mainly because Iris wasn't in any danger during her bed rest except for her utter boredom.

She began to look forward to her chatty AI daughter's daily reports about the latest news to stave off her boredom. Ketchup had the special ability to make even the most boring news sound like the most amusing and interesting tales ever. Adding in her overdramatic tendency that she inherited from her Uncle Dom, Iris now felt extremely thankful that she mixed in her assistant and best friend's personality into the cocktail that made up Ketchup's loving and bubbly character.

"Mommy, the cute and mighty Ketchup noticed that Auntie Ying Yue is in a bad mood these days because of Uncle Yehan's lawsuit against my former uncle who's now a poopoo-head, that Long Hui! Pweh! Ketchup still has a deep grudge against the poopoo-head for what he did to my adorable cousin, Big Brother Little Junjun! How can a father do that to his own baby? The cute and mighty Ketchup doesn't understand. My daddy is super-duper to the highest level loving and caring, although he's super-duper to the highest level strict most of the time and scary sometimes, but that's okay because the cute and mighty me knows that Daddy is only disciplining us kitty babies for our own good. Right, Mommy? Meow~"

"Yes, Ketchup. Your dad loves you and all your siblings very much." Iris then glanced at the bored-looking Bacon on her tablet who folded himself like a loaf of bread.

Look at the kid. He looked as if he didn't care but his tail was rotating like a helicopter's rotor blades. It was obvious that Bacon loved his dad as well but didn't want to say or show it.

Ketchup continued chattering. "Mommy, why is it that Grandpa Long is still protecting that poopoo-headed son of his when that Long Hui did all those things to hurt Big Brother Little Junjun and Auntie Ying Yue and Mommy and Daddy and other members of our one big happy family? It makes the cute and mighty Ketchup's kitty blood boil with injustice! Hmph! Meow!"

Without any change of expression, Bacon said, "It's because aside from Mother, Aunt Jinjing and our cousin Big Brother Jun, everyone else in the Long family are not classy."

"But Grandma Yang and Auntie Meimei are nice. Meow~"

"Fine. They're classy but only barely. Grandmother Yang is kind but she doesn't seem to have that much power to change Grandfather Long's bullheaded beliefs. Aunt Mei is also an inspirational figure with her successful career as a webtoon artist but she doesn't take care of herself and allows herself to look like a zombie which isn't classy."

"Alright, Bacon. That's enough." Iris sighed at her AI son's straightforwardness which she admitted that he must have inherited from her. Good thing that she was gradually learning some tact after being reborn as Iris Long. She hoped that Bacon could tone down this part of his personality as well.

Back to the main topic, she agreed with Ketchup. Iris also felt displeased that Long Tengfei continued to shield Long Hui by sending him far away to avoid Lin Yehan's lawsuit under the guise of punishment. However, she also understood that it must be Long Tengfei's sentiments as a father.

She thought that if she were in Long Tengfei's shoes, she would also do everything to protect her children regardless of whatever bad things they did. Although this wasn't a good thing from a moral perspective, she still couldn't stomach watching any of her beloved children suffer. And she was certain that her husband would feel the same way.

"Also, Mommy, Uncle Long Jian left you three missed calls and fourteen messages inquiring about your promise to help his mother to get out of jail. Ketchup only informed Mommy now because the cute and mighty me deemed his request as low priority. Meow~"

Iris massaged her forehead at the reminder of her promise. "Alright. I got it. Thank you, Ketchup."

"No problemo, Filipino! Ketchup is always happy to help my mommy. Love ya lots. Mwah mwah tsup tsup! Ehehehe. Meow~"
