His Genius Wife Is A Superstar novel Chapter 1066

Chapter 1066 - Crossed The Bottomline Too Far

"How is she?!" Lu Zihao asked, no, demanded while barrelling towards where his sister was lying asleep on the bed.

The doctor couldn’t help but step back in fear at the huge man’s threatening aura. However, her professionalism still won over her nerves. "S-sir...p-please be quiet! The madam needs to rest!"

Lu Zihao looked like he wanted to beat up someone into a pulp but still forced himself to calm down. His dark eyes darted over his extremely pale sister. He relaxed a little after seeing that she was still breathing. However, his bloodthirsty aura continued to emanate from him, causing everyone in the room except for Jin Liwei to shiver.

Dom shoved more of Iris’ chocolates inside his mouth as a way to cope with the tense atmosphere while Jin Chonglin stared wide-eyed and wide-mouthed at what seemed to be an unfamiliar Lu Zihao.

As for Jin Liwei, he had already gradually gotten used to his brother-in-law’s murderous vibes especially after reading the Vetrov report many times. He wasn’t completely immune but at least his instincts wouldn’t always go into fight or flight mode every time his brother-in-law unleashed his bloodthirst. It also helped that Bacon updated him on a regular basis about his work at Shadow Winds. All of these contributed to desensitizing him towards his brother-in-law’s cruel side.

After regaining control of his wild emotions, Lu Zihao stood beside the seated Jin Liwei by Iris’ bed. He didn’t touch his sister, only looked at her.

Jin Liwei observed his brother-in-law’s eyes becoming several degrees gentler after looking at Iris. He could relate.

"She okay?"

"En." Jin Liwei lifted his wife’s hand and kissed her palm before rubbing it gently to warm it up.

"The babies?"

"Okay, too."

Lu Zihao released a huge sigh of relief. Jin Liwei gave him a brief summary of what the doctor said about Iris needing a complete bed rest for at least half a month to stabilize the babies in her womb.

"Good. Keep her in bed rest until she gives birth. That would be safer."

"I agree," Jin Liwei murmured.

The two heard a loud snort. They turned their heads and saw that it was Jin Chonglin.

"Good luck with that," Jin Chonglin told them. "I’ve experienced working with Xiulan—"

"Call her Sister-in-law," Jin Liwei corrected his younger brother.

"Sister Xiulan," Jin Chonglin said instead, reverting to how he usually called her. "Well, as I was saying, I’ve experienced working with her several times now and will work more closely in the future since we established our own company together, LXC Studio. I know that Sister Xiulan is not the type to idle around. She’ll surely rebel if you force her into bed rest for longer than what the doctor recommended."

Dom nodded and finished swallowing the bite of chocolate he just ate before speaking. "Boss will indeed react like that. I think that it’s better for us to follow what the doctor recommends. Boss hates it whenever she feels like her freedom is being restricted."

Jin Liwei and Lu Zihao had similar expressions. They both looked torn. On one hand, they wanted to lock up Iris at home where it was safe until she gave birth. And on another hand, they didn’t want to trigger her past life’s trauma of feeling caged.

In the end, Jin Liwei could only give in. "Fine. We’ll follow exactly what the doctor recommends."

Lu Zihao harrumphed but didn’t object. He walked towards the window and half-sat on the sill. He crossed his muscled arms over his wide chest. His relaxed posture was deceptive. Jin Liwei noticed his brother-in-law’s alert eyes peeking through the gap between the curtains and window to the ground outside like a hunter observing his prey.

The doctor looked pleased now that Jin Liwei announced that they would follow her exact recommendations. Then she asked, "Would you like me to check your injuries?"
