His Genius Wife is a Superstar (Web Novel)
chapter-998

"You won't understand the joys of being a father until you have your own children," Jin Liwei replied in a calm tone, completely unbothered by Lu Zihao's sarcastic words.

Lu Zihao snorted. "That son of yours sure knows how to tyrannize others. Who's the fucking bastard his personality is based on?"

Jin Liwei laughed.

"What the fuck are you laughing about?"

It took a few seconds before Jin Liwei was able to control his laughter. "Nothing. Don't mind Bacon too much. He can be hard to deal with most of the time but he's a good boy who always prioritizes his mother and the family."

"I know." Lu Zihao sighed. "So why did you did you call me, Third Brother? Or should I call you Brother-in-law?"

"Call me whatever you want. Either one is fine." Jin Liwei paused. "Is my…Fifth Brother Zihao still there?"

"Yeah."

"Can I talk to him?"

"Not right now. I'm driving. The backlash from the switch might get us in an accident."

"Oh. Alright." Jin Liwei sounded a little disappointed but he quickly moved on to another topic. "I called because I want to talk to you about Bacon stealing the files from Evelina but that's already resolved. I also want to talk to you about the things I requested from you."

"We're already working on it. I'll tell Bacon to show you the preliminary list of the traitors in the Jin branch families that we've unearthed so far. I must admit that I'm quite impressed by the Young family's ability to tempt your people to betray you."

"The moment they allied with the Youngs to covet Jin Corporation, they no longer deserve to be called my people. My Jin clan has no place for traitors like them."

"Bacon mentioned that you'll leave their punishment for me to decide. Are you absolutely sure about that? You know who I was in my past life, Brother-in-law. Even Evelinka don't know the true extent of my cruelty."

Jin Liwei didn't reply right away.

"Heh~ What's this? Are you perhaps feeling hesitant to hurt your own clansmen, Brother-in-law?"

"Not hesitant," Jin Liwei replied in a cold voice. "I just needed a moment to control my own cruel urges."

"Oh?" Lu Zihao raised an eyebrow.

"Not only did those traitors collude with outsiders to bite the hands that fed them over the decades but they also want to shove another woman to me. How dare they expect me to leave my wife and children? They want to control me through a marriage of their own choosing? Preposterous!"

"Indeed, those motherfuckers are preposterous." The car's interior was filled with intense bloodlust. "They ignore the phoenix and choose a chicken instead. No, that nymphomaniac is an insult to all the chickens in the world. They choose a fucking dirty shit and act like she's worth her weight in gold just because she studied in the same business school as you in America. Fucking idiots. If my sister who is a two-time Cross Academy student in both her lives is inferior to that Rose Young, then the whole world is a fucking shithole filled with fucking idiots who have shit for brains. There's no man in the world who deserves such a perfect woman like my sister. Even you barely qualify as her husband."

Jin Liwei sighed. "I want to punch you in the face so badly, but yes, I agree to everything you said. But don't get me wrong. Evelina is my wife now and there's no way in hell I'll admit to anyone including you that we don't match. We're perfect together."

Lu Zihao's instinctive protectiveness over his sister made him want to insult his brother-in-law for his claim but he restrained himself. Although Jin Liwei's smug words irked the fuck out of him, he couldn't deny that the couple indeed felt perfect together.

Oh well. There was nothing that he could do about it anymore. He had already long accepted his sister's choice of a man. As long as she was happy and Jin Liwei wouldn't do anything foolish to hurt her, then Lu Zihao would silently cheer for their continued happiness and give support by eliminating anyone who would dare to destroy his sister's marriage.

After the banter, the two men talked about serious matters, mostly regarding Jin Liwei's request for assistance regarding the Youngs' nefarious plans of swallowing Jin Corporation, and in extension, fortifying Iris' protection because it was clear that the enemies considered her to be one of the biggest obstacles in their plot. Afterwards, Jin Liwei broached the subject about Shadow Winds' recent conspicuous actions.

"I have everything under control," Lu Zihao replied in a cold, dismissive tone.

"Bacon says otherwise."

"That little rascal don't know the whole story."

"He might not know the whole story but it's a fact that the authorities are starting to give more attention to Shadow Winds."

Lu Zihao pressed his lips together in a thin line. "I know what I'm doing."

"Of course, you do. But you're becoming too impatient and reckless. Continuing to do so will only lead to mistakes which will result to a disaster. Just bear in mind that revenge is best served cold. Take your time to plan the most perfect revenge instead of rushing."

"I don't need you to tell me what to do!"

Jin Liwei remained calm despite Lu Zihao's defensiveness. "I'm not telling you what to do. I'm just giving you a reminder as your brother-in-law and as the third brother of the body that you now possess. I just hope that you'll be more careful and avoid causing my wife to worry about you."

"Hah…." Lu Zihao expelled a long breath and gradually calmed down. "Fine. I get it."

"Good."

"Is that all? Are you done? I'm hanging up now." Lu Zihao didn't want to talk anymore. He felt exhausted dealing with the AI son and then the father. Both were equally irritating.

"One more thing."

"What is it? Say it quickly."

"Grandpa Lu knows that you broke up with Long Jinjing and he's furious."

Lu Zihao's eyes went wide.

"You've been warned so be ready to face Grandpa Lu's wrath once he finds you. Alright, I'll go back to work now. Bye."

The call ended.
