His Genius Wife Is A Superstar

Winter ended early this year. Fluctuating weather and intermittent spring showers caused many to get sick one after another.

When Iris suddenly fell ill despite taking all the necessary health precautions, Jin Liwei immediately panicked. Even when the doctor verified that it was the common cold and not the more serious flu, he still continued to worry over his pregnant wife.

By this time, Iris' belly was now big. It took quite a long time for her baby bump to really pop out, but when it did, it seemed to grow exponentially each day.

She had no time to relax because her back hurt almost all the time. She felt uncomfortable all over. In addition, her babies started to feel truly heavy for her. She couldn't comfortably stand up or walk without supporting her bulging belly because it felt like it'll fall down to the ground if she didn't.

At the moment, Iris sniffled on the bed while trying to find a more comfortable position under the covers. Jin Liwei felt distressed while watching her. Despite her repeated protests against him staying near her while she was sick, he refused to leave her alone and personally took care of her.

She tried to get up from the bed but could only groan in frustration when she couldn't even sit up. It was a combination of her weakened state from the cold and her heavy belly.

Jin Liwei immediately helped her from the bed and assisted her to the bathroom to relieve herself.

After settling back on the bed, Iris sighed. The short journey from the bed and the bathroom had exhausted her.

"What are you doing? You'll get sick!" She tried to push away Jin Liwei who followed her under the covers and hugged her tightly. She didn't succeed.

"I'll be fine."

"You!"

She felt annoyed but her body betrayed her. Before she realized what she was doing, she was already hugging him back. His embrace and scent were comforting. She didn't know if it was just her imagination but even her backache was becoming less painful.

Jin Liwei's hand started caressing her belly. Then he felt a light flick on his palm. At the same time, Iris groaned in pain.

"You naughty boys, don't kick your mom too hard! See if I don't spank you when you come out for making your mom suffer so much!"

Iris chuckled and winced at the same time. She felt the boys twisting and turning inside her belly, as if responding to their father's scolding.

Jin Liwei's expression turned dark. He was about to reprimand his disobedient boys but restrained himself when his wife patted him to stop.

That was right. The couple was having boys. They confirmed it from the latest ultrasound.

Actually, they should have found out the genders of their twins much earlier. It was just that the twins would always hide their privates whenever the doctor tried to see them through the ultrasound. No matter how much they were coaxed, they refused to expose themselves.

It was only during the latest ultrasound that the doctor finally confirmed their genders because the twins had been asleep then.

The results were that the twins were both boys.

Iris was happy, already imagining her sons resembling their father.

As for Jin Liwei, he didn't really care. No matter if their twins were boys or girls or one of each, he would be happy as long as they were healthy and born safely into this world. Right now, however, he was unhappy because the boys were acting too rowdy inside their mother.

"Ketchup, play your mother's lullaby," he called to his AI daughter.

"Aye aye, Daddy! Meow~"

In the next second, a beautiful and gentle piano lullaby began playing. It was one of Iris' recent compositions after experiencing a rush of inspiration when her belly grew heavy and she began to feel that there were two lives really growing inside her.

The lullaby was reaching its most beautiful part when a child's voice started singing words that were, er, not quite fitting.

"Hush hush, my little baby brothers~

"Don't be so naughty inside Mommy's gigantic belly or Daddy will hit your little steamed bun-buns~

"Oh oh oh, sleepy tight or Daddy will give you a super-duper big fright—"

"Ketchup, that's enough," Jin Liwei interrupted his AI daughter in the middle of singing her yet another set of terrible lyrics she composed to match her mother's piano lullaby. "Just play your mom's music."

"Aaaw…."

Ketchup felt sad that her daddy didn't want to hear her singing but she still obeyed. The last time she sang, her little baby brothers became so excited that they kept on tumbling and rolling inside their mommy. Daddy became upset because Mommy was in pain due to her naughty little baby brothers' too-vigorous movements. Therefore, Ketchup vowed that she would practice hard to sing more beautiful lyrics to help her parents lull her little baby brothers to sleep and stop being so naughty.

Since she couldn't talk right now or risk making her little baby brothers more excited, Ketchup could only turn to her Great-Grandpa Lu who was super-duper awesome and always loved chatting with her.

Jin Liwei released a big sigh of relief when Ketchup finally left. He adored his AI daughter but she was too energetic. His sick wife needed to rest and focus on healing while the twins needed to stop playing around inside their mother's womb and causing her pain. ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ Novᴇ(l)Fɪre.net - novelenglish.net . bin

Iris gently massaged her big belly. Her soothing movements and the gentle lullaby must have worked because the naughty boys finally settled down. It was only then that their father's stern expression eased.

"Don't be so hard on our twins," she told her husband. "They're not even born yet and you're already scolding them. I'm alright. I can still bear this much."

He didn't reply right away. She looked at him and widened her eyes, prompting him to answer.

"Fine," he said, sighing. "I won't be too hard on them but I won't spoil them either. If they do something wrong, then they need to be disciplined.

She pursed her lips but still nodded.
