His Genius Wife Is A Superstar

Chapter 468 - A Chance Encounter At The Hospital

Jin Chonglin harrumphed and then muttered, "Fine. I’m just saying that you couple should also consider my own feelings, you know." Then he changed the subject. "By the way, what’s up with that hacker you recommended? That son of a bitch is too expensive!!!"

Iris scowled when he called her baby, Ketchup, a "son of a bitch". Since she was the creator/mother, wasn’t she the one he was calling a "bitch"? Iris had decided to allow Ketchup to work with Jin Chonglin since his requests would probably be something very easy to accomplish. She was very busy working on more important things, so it was a good thing that she had Ketchup to deal with this kind of minor tasks. Besides, Ketchup was growing at a fast rate that amazed even her. She didn’t expect that the self-learning function she developed would be so effective.

"Brother Chonglin, I already warned you beforehand that the hacker I know is one of the best in the world and will be very expensive," she reminded him. "You even bragged about being able to afford it, so don’t complain. Did the hacker accomplish the task you ask for?"

"Yeah..." he replied, and then sighed. "He was amazing, actually. The targets didn’t even know that they were hacked. There were no traces at all. Now I have less things to worry about. It’s just that he’s too expensive. Even this prince winced at the price. It sounds like you’re quite close to the hacker. Can you ask him to give me a discount?"

"Hmm..." Iris seriously thought about it. "Fine, 2% discount."

"T-two percent?!! Come on. Sister Xiulan, we’re family now. Negotiate a higher discount with the hacker for me."

"Fine. 3%."

"More."

"3.1%..."

"..." Jin Chonglin was speechless. "Sister Xiulan... You know what? You’re actually worse than Big Bro."

"Hm? What do you mean? Grandpa Lu says that I have talent as a business negotiator," she said.

"Ah... Grandpa Lu... I see. Now that makes sense." He sighed once, twice, and then three times. "I forgot that he’s actually your business mentor. Hmmm... Now that I think about it, I think I made the right decision to connect myself to Orchidia Beauty while it’s still in its early stages..."

"Of course, you did. So don’t complain anymore about endorsement fees," she said.

In the end, Iris agreed to "persuade" the hacker to give Jin Chonglin a 9.8% discount after an intense negotiation. Jin Chonglin was unsuccessful in making it 10%. He grew exhausted trying to negotiate with her so he just agreed just to be done with it.

Iris smiled in satisfaction when the call ended. Now she had a slightly fatter bank account thanks to her future brother-in-law. Then she fell into deep sleep, unable to wait for her darling’s return to the bedroom.

Everyone was busy the entire week, except for Jiang Ying Yue. As the head of security of a condo building, she had more flexibility to decide her own schedule. Despite this, she didn’t abuse her authority and worked regular hours. Today, however, she took a day-off because Little Jun had an appointment with the pediatrician.

She preferred to bring her own son to the doctor instead of entrusting him to the nanny. Little Jun wasn’t sick or anything. It was just a regular check-up and also because they were planning on travelling abroad soon. She needed to know the doctor’s opinion if her son was safe to travel and if he needed any vaccines beforehand, especially since this was his first time to travel outside the country.

It was a beautiful sunny day, but there was a chill in the air. Autumn was making itself more and more felt with each passing day.

Jiang Ying Yue and Little Jun were dressed in stylish coats and boots. They had no choice but to be stylish because the mother and son’s entire wardrobes were completely replaced by Wei Lan. Their old clothes, save for a few ones, were all donated to charity by the viscountess.

The driver dropped them off at the hospital, and then left soon afterwards. He needed to return to the penthouse and drive Wei Lan for another round of house hunting. He told Jiang Ying Yue to call him when Little Jun’s appointment was done, so that he could pick them up. She nodded, even though she didn’t plan on disturbing him. She and her son could just hail a taxi to bring them home.

Later...

Little Jun’s appointment with the pediatrician went smoothly. Jiang Ying Yue was relieved because her son was declared very healthy. The pediatrician also approved Little Jun for international travel.

On their way out of the hospital, the mother and son met the brothers Lin Yehan and Wang Yingjie. It turned out that the hospital was where Wang Yingjie worked as a surgeon. No wonder it was the hospital that Jin Liwei recommended to her. It was a different and much bigger hospital than the one Iris went to. It was also much affordable because it catered to patients from all walks of life compared to the high-class, private hospital where Iris was a patient.

"Anko Han!" Little Jun exclaimed and ran towards him.

Lin Yehan crouched down and caught the child. Then he stood up and carried him. His expression was gentle as always. "Hello, Little Jun. How are you?"

Little Jun started babbling about his doctor’s appointment, but Lin Yehan only understood about 10-20% of what he was saying. Then the child turned to Wang Yingjie and greeted him as well.

"Heyo, Anko Doc!"

Wang Yingjie’s serious expression lightened as he smiled. Lin Yehan and Jiang Ying Yue chuckled.

The two groups chatted. It turned out that Lin Yehan went for his annual physical check-up and bloodwork today. Then he met with his Second Brother, Wang Yingjie, who was on a quick break. Jiang Ying Yue also told them about Little Jun’s appointment with the pediatrician.

Wang Yingjie nodded his head. "He’s a friend of mine. He’s an excellent pediatrician. I was actually the one who recommended him to Third Brother when he asked me if I know a good pediatrician."

"Oh, thank you very much!" Jiang Ying Yue said.

"You’re welcome." Then Wang Yingjie looked at the time. "I need to go back to work. See you around. Bye!"

"Bye bye, Anko Doc!" Little Jun waved at Wang Yingjie while still being carried by Lin Yehan.

When Wang Yingjie was gone, Jiang Ying Yue and Lin Yehan looked at each other.

"So...are you going home now?" Lin Yehan asked her.
