Iris might appear like she was only doing the bare minimum, but the quality of her work was unquestionable. For her, it wasn't based on how long she spent working on the tasks but on the quality of the results. This had always been her principle whenever she worked on something.
After another day of hard work, Iris went home and headed straight to the nursery to hug her babies.
"Mama! Mama!!" Little Mochi and Little Matcha immediately abandoned their toys and crawled up to her.
She knelt on the floor and caught her twins. The cats and puppies also ran in circles around her, each trying to catch her attention.
Little Jun wasn't at home, unfortunately. It was Jiang Ying Yue's day off today. She took her son to Lin Yehan's farm villa for an overnight stay. Everyone could see Lin Yehan's painstaking efforts in trying to bond with his soon-to-be stepson so that Little Jun wouldn't feel neglected in any way. This was especially important since Lin Yehan and Jiang Ying Yue were already starting to plan their wedding.
Lin Yehan's farm villa was quite far from Dragon Palace, but he would still take the time and effort to drive the long distance almost every day just to spend more quality time with the mother and son. Even when Jiang Ying Yue was on duty at the mansion, Lin Yehan didn't mind and insisted on spending time with Little Jun instead. Everyone witnessed his sincerity. He really treated the mother and son as his own family now.
Although her godson was absent, Iris was still happy to see her babies welcoming her home. She kissed her children a few times and couldn't help but sigh in contentment. "Ah, Mommy is recharged now, thanks to my babies."
Little Mochi giggled and also gave her plenty of drooly smooches on the cheek. Little Matcha was a bit more reserved, only giving her one kiss on the cheek.
She played with her children for some time before Ketchup informed her that Jin Liwei had arrived home. She and Dom carried the twins to welcome her husband. The cats and puppies also followed by their feet.
Jin Liwei's stern expression immediately softened upon seeing his family welcoming him home.
He took Little Matcha who was reaching for him from Dom and went straight to his wife and other son, Little Mochi. The family of four embraced each other. The cats and puppies also rubbed themselves against their legs.
The family was about to head straight for a meal when Dom received a call.
"Boss, it's Big Sis Yue," Dom said.
Iris took the phone and listened to a frantic Jiang Ying Yue.
"Calm down, Ying Yue," Iris said, trying to calm down Jiang Ying Yue. "I can't understand what you're saying. Explain to me slowly and clearly."
The calmer Lin Yehan took over the call from his fiancée to explain the situation.
Iris put the call on loudspeaker so that her husband could also listen.
It turned out that Little Jun was having a fever. The child had been fine and energetic like usual in the morning, but by the afternoon, he began to feel lethargic.
