"Good morning, Boss!" Dom greeted.
Iris smiled. "Good morning, Dom. What are you so excited about so early in the morning?"
She already had an idea why but still asked him.
Dom waved his phone. "Director He called just now to inform me about the ratings of last night's episode of MusicFest Tonight. Boss, it's the highest the program has gotten this year so far!"
Iris chuckled.
"Director He says that he'll send something later today to thank you," Dom added.
She nodded. Of course, this made her excited and allowed herself a few moments to enjoy the feeling. But soon, she went into business mode.
Dom also quickly recovered. The two of them were discussing today's schedule when Jin Liwei came out fully dressed in a business suit.
"Good morning, sir boss!" Dom greeted.
"Morning," Jin Liwei said with a nod. Then he asked his wife, "Ready for breakfast?"
"Yes." Iris made a final check on her casual outfit in the mirror.
She didn't wear any makeup today, just a bright lip gloss. There would be another quick rehearsal this morning. Then her glam team would get her ready for another live performance on an afternoon TV program. After that would be another series of guestings.
Iris, Jin Liwei, and Dom headed to the dining area where the twins had just finished eating their breakfast with the nannies. The cats and dogs were also there.
The family chatted while Iris and the other two ate their own breakfast.
Afterwards, they said goodbye to the reluctant children.
Jin Liwei wanted to drop off his wife before heading to the company, so Iris rode in his car.
Dom took her executive van, directly heading to the studio ahead of her. This was also to make sure that the security around the studio was tight when she arrived.
"I know you're busy," Iris said. "You don't have to accompany me every time."
Jin Liwei took her hand and kissed it. "But I want to."
Despite being together with him this long and already having children together, she still felt her heart flutter when he looked at her like that, kissed her hand like that, and spoke to her like that.
She fought a foolish smile from spreading across her face and looked away. "Do what you want."
"En. You're going to be busier than me. I have to make sure that you stay healthy."
She glared at him. "Speak for yourself! You still haven't gained all the weight you lost when…when Grandma Li…." She sighed. "I know that there's still a lot to do when it comes to settling our inheritance from Grandma Li, but there's no need to do everything by yourself. What's the point of hiring subordinates if they can't function without you checking every little single thing?"
Jin Liwei gave her hand another kiss before pulling her for a tight embrace. "I know, love. But I just can't completely be at ease because those assets are from my grandmother. I need to make sure that everything is accounted for and each asset goes to whom my grandmother intended them to go."
She sighed again. "Just take care of yourself."
