His Genius Wife is a Superstar (Web Novel)

chapter-314
Iris glared at Jin Liwei, but he only pulled his collar lower, exposing more of his flesh to her. She saw all of the previous hickeys she left on his skin.
"What are you doing?" She scolded him, but her tone didn't really sound angry.
"Hm? I thought you want to bite me?"
"I do not! Well, maybe a little…" Her eyes darkened with desire as she looked longer at the exposed part of his chest. Saliva began to pool in her mouth. A strong urge to kiss his bare skin fogged her mind before she realized what was happening. "Wait! Stop distracting me. That's not the point. I said give me my phone!"
Jin Liwei looked at her for a few seconds. "My chest is not enough for you? Alright then."He grabbed the bottom hem of his long-sleeved shirt and began to take it off. His tight, hard abs were exposed for everyone to see.
Iris was shocked by his sudden action. Then she heard the loud gasps of some of the maids. Her own green-eyed monster started rearing its ugly head within her.
"WHAT ARE YOU DOING?! STOP!!!" She leaped towards him and quickly pulled his shirt down before he could completely take it off. Then she glared at the blushing maids and houseboys. "Don't look!"
The startled staff immediately covered their eyes and turned around.
'Uwah! The mistress is so scary…how cute…'
Jin Liwei looked extremely smug at her overreaction. He chuckled softly before pulling her to sit on his lap. Then he began hugging and nuzzling her.
"You! Are you crazy?!" Annoyed at him, she tried getting off his lap, but he just pulled her back down again."Yeah. Crazy for you." He smirked at her.
She pursed her lips at him, trying to stay annoyed. However, her own mouth betrayed her by twitching until it smiled. Then without her control, she began giggling. "You're so annoying."
"Yeah. But you love me."
She nodded, confirming his words, and then hid her face against his neck.
The household staff were all speechless. One moment, they were terrified of their master and mistress. Then the next moment, they were being drowned by dog food. They were also beginning to realize just how shameless their master could be in front of their mistress. It was such a shock. If they weren't seeing him with their own eyes, they would suspect that their current master was an impostor.
Fortunately, they were saved from dog food overdose by the arrival of Jiang Ying Yue and Little Jun. The toddler was currently sleeping in his mother's embrace. Although half of Jiang Ying Yue's face was covered by a mask from her recent cold, the worry and exhaustion could be clearly seen in her eyes.
Iris jumped off Jin Liwei's lap and headed to meet the mother and son. He didn't stop her. The sight of Little Jun instantly reminded him of his fury about the tabloid scandal involving his baby girl and godson (oh, and his brother too).
After laying Little Jun on the couch and covering him with a blanket, the adults began their serious talk.
"Ying Yue, I'm very sorry. Because of me, Little Jun's image has been plastered all over the news. Although his face is blurred out in the photos, there are still people who are trying to dig out what he looks like. It's my fault for being careless." Iris apologized to Jiang Ying Yue.
Jiang Ying Yue shook her head, releasing a weary sigh. "Xiulan, it's not your fault. Yes, I can't stop myself from feeling upset but I can never blame you. You and Sir Liwei have been very good to me and my son. I'm very thankful to both of you. Actually, I'm the one feeling guilty because people are now thinking that Little Jun is your love child with Jin Chonglin."
Jin Liwei's eyes narrowed and the temperature around him turned colder. However, Iris wasn't affected. She waved Jiang Ying Yue's concerns away.
"Don't worry about me. I can take care of myself. We should focus on Little Jun's safety above anything else. There are people who are now trying to find out more about him. The two of you will have to stay here for a while until it's safe for you to return to the condo," Iris told her.
Jiang Ying Yue nodded but still couldn't stop herself from feeling guilty. She wanted to help Iris, but she just couldn't reveal to everyone that Little Jun was her illegitimate son with Long Hui. A memory of those people insulting and threatening her while she was still pregnant surfaced in her mind. Anger, humiliation and fear almost overwhelmed her before she was able to control herself.
While she was dealing with her own emotions, the couple continued to discuss the tabloid scandal.
"Love, let's announce our relationship. All of these will be over once everyone knows that I'm your fiancé. Only stupid people will dare slander you even after knowing that you're engaged to Jin Liwei," he suggested.
Iris tilted her head, seriously considering it. However, she shook her head after much thought. "It's not the right time yet."
He was unhappy with her decision, but he didn't force her to follow his suggestion. For him, any time was the right time to reveal their relationship. But he also wanted the revelation to be agreed upon by both of them. It would make the moment more special and memorable.
"Fine," he mumbled, sulking a little bit. "Now that Little Jun and Jiang Ying Yue are both safe and here with us, I can now take care of those motherf*ckers, right?"
His rage started burning once again. He couldn't wait to make the people behind the tabloid paper and the paparazzo who took the photos realize their idiocy for targeting his baby girl and godson (oh, and his brother too) just to make up a scandalous story.
"Darling, I know that you can't wait to punish them, but can you leave them to me instead?"
He frowned. He was about to insist on doing it himself, but when he saw her directly looking at him with her beautiful eyes, he found that he couldn't deny her request. Sighing, he reluctantly nodded. "Alright, love. But don't hesitate to tell me if you need my help."
"Of course." Iris smiled and gave him a quick peck on the cheek.
Then she looked at Little Jun who was sleeping peacefully on the couch. He looked so angelic. He was her body's nephew, her body's flesh and blood. He was also her godson and that connection was stronger for her. She vowed to protect his innocence and to allow him to enjoy his childhood.
While Jin Liwei was enraged about the slander being thrown at her, she was furious about the fact that the tabloid involved Little Jun. She wouldn't have cared so much if it were only her and Jin Chonglin. But they just had to drag an innocent child into the mix.
What made her the most furious, however, was the fact that the tabloid and the people's comments began referring to Little Jun as a "child born from immorality". Although they didn't know his name or his identity, they were saying all of these malicious things about him. To Iris, this was simply unforgivable.
Her eyes turned cold. Anyone who dared try to harm her beloved godson must be punished.
If only Lu Zihao could see her expression at the moment, he would say that she looked very much like a Vetrov.
