His Genius Wife Is A Superstar

Chapter 524 - Stubborn Grandma Li

Jin Liwei’s men didn’t listen to Jin Chenggong. They only listened to their boss, Jin Liwei. Despite the father and daughter’s protests and struggles, they held them and began dragging them away.

The other members of the branch families looked at the unbelievable scenes unfolding before them in horror. They stood frozen in their spots, afraid that if they made the wrong move, Jin Liwei would also order his subordinates to drag them away and throw them out.

While the father and daughter were being dragged away, Jin Chenggong continued shouting at Jin Liwei.

"You’re going to regret this!!! Don’t you know that blood is thicker than water?!! That woman is only a woman!!! She’s not worth destroying family relations!!! Breaking up our family over a woman?!!! The height of foolishness!!!"

Jin Jiali didn’t lose to her father. She didn’t stop screaming and shrieking at the men dragging her away.

"Don’t touch me!!! I’ll report you for physical and sexual assault!!!" Then she directed her anger at Iris. "I hate you, Iris Long!!! This is all your fault!!! Because of you, we’ve been kicked out of the clan!!!"

Iris ignored the father and daughter. She didn’t have the time nor the energy to respond to their pure stupidity and hatred. She was more concerned about staying on the line and communicating with the dispatcher on the phone.

"The ambulance is on its way. It’ll arrive soon," she announced in a calm voice.

"Oh, thank goodness!" Huang Yuyan exclaimed in tears.

"En. Thanks, love," Jin Liwei said.

"I told you that I’m okay now. There’s no need to bring me to the hospital," Grandma Li tried to assure them.

"Grandmother, even if you’re feeling alright now, you still have to see a doctor to make sure that your health is really fine. Or else we’ll worry about you," Jin Liwei told her.

Grandma Li sighed and nodded. Then she leaned back on the chair and closed her eyes to rest.

Fortunately, the noisy father and daughter, Jin Chenggong and Jin Jiali, were now gone.

Later, they all heard the sound of an approaching siren. The ambulance finally arrived. After taking Grandma Li’s vitals, the paramedics carried the elder inside the ambulance to bring her to the hospital. Huang Yuyan accompanied her inside the ambulance.

Iris and Jin Liwei prepared to follow them in their own car, but before they could do so, two girls called out to Iris.

"I know that you’re in a hurry so we’ll say this quickly. We’re actually Black Stars. We love you, Boss Iris! Please don’t mind what Jiali said to you. She’s dumb. She doesn’t listen to anyone, except for her dad."

"We’re super excited to have you in our Jin family! That’s all we have to say to you. Please hurry to the hospital. I hope that the matriarch will be okay. Next time when we meet each other again, we hope that you can sign autographs and take some pictures with us."

Despite the urgent situation, the couple smiled at the two girls. Iris was always kind and thankful to her true fans. She gave the two a hug each, delighting them.

"Thank you very much. I appreciate it. Of course, I’ll sign autographs for you and we’ll take however many pictures you want together. We’re going to be family, after all. Bye now. We have to go," she told them.

"Yes, boss!"

"OMG! Boss Iris hugged us!"

Jin Liwei nodded at them before leaving with Iris.

At the hospital, Huang Yuyan paced back and forth in the hallway. She was wringing the front of her own dress with her hands in fear and anxiety. Her eyes were red and teary.

Iris and Jin Liwei sat together on the stiff hospital seats. Jin Liwei was hugging her shoulder with one arm while she held his other hand, massaging it. At first glance, it looked like he was comforting her because he was the one hugging her. But in actuality, she was the one who was comforting him.

His hand felt cold. She massaged it, trying to warm it up. She stayed close to him, providing him with a stable source of warmth and comfort.

"Grandma Li will be fine," she murmured.

He didn’t reply, only squeezing her closer to him.

A few minutes later, a nurse called them inside the room, informing them that the doctor had finished examining Grandma Li. When they entered, the elder woman sat on the bed. Contrary to what they expected, she looked energetic.

Huang Yuyan hurried to her mother-in-law’s side. "Mother, how are you?!"

"Calm down, Yuyan my dear. I already told you that I’m alright. The doctor says that I’m also alright. Right, doctor?"

They all turned to the doctor.

"Yes, she’s fine now, medically speaking," he told them.

It was only then that everyone released big sighs of relief.

"However, she’s now advanced in age. Her heart isn’t as strong as it used to be. As much as possible, avoid making her feel too emotional or distressed. She might experience a full heart attack next time. We don’t want that, so please take care of her overall physical, mental and emotional health," the doctor explained.

"Oh, thank goodness!" Huang Yuyan exclaimed.

"Doctor, I want to attend my granddaughter-in-law’s party tomorrow. It’s an important event. Can I go?" Grandma Li asked.

Jin Liwei: "Absolutely not."

Huang Yuyan: "Mother, no!"

Iris: "Grandma Li, please rest."

"But I want to attend. I’m feeling alright now!" Grandma Li said, her tone stubborn.

"It should be fine," the doctor said. "Like I said, your grandmother is fine now. All the tests we conducted on her returned with normal results. Medically speaking, she’s healthy. However, we must all remember that she’s already advanced in age. No matter how healthy she is, her body and her organs aren’t what they used to be when she was younger. She can attend the party tomorrow but make sure that she doesn’t exert herself too much and get plenty of rest before and after. Understood?"

"See? I told you I’m fine."

Iris smiled at her. "Grandma Li, thank you very much. I appreciate that you want to attend my company’s grand launch tomorrow to show your support for me. But I think that it’s safer for you to stay at home and rest. How about we livestream the event for you so that you can still watch it even when you’re resting at home?"

"En, good idea," Jin Liwei immediately supported her suggestion.

Huang Yuyan followed suit. "That’s a great idea, Xiulan! Mother, let’s do that instead. Okay?"

But Grandma Li remained stubborn. "No. I want to attend so I will."

Iris and Huang Yuyan looked at Jin Liwei with helpless expressions on their faces.

"That old gorilla will be attending tomorrow. There’s no way I’m going to stay at home while he has all the fun! He’s attending to support Xiulan. I also want to go because I’m proud of my future granddaughter-in-law. This is my right! Why are you all stopping me?"

The doctor discreetly excused himself to allow the family their private conversation. After thanking him, they returned to discussing Grandma Li’s desire to attend the grand launch of Iris’ company, Orchidia Beauty, tomorrow.

They all tried persuading her to stay at home and rest but the elder lady refused. She insisted on attending the grand launch.

"Isn’t it fine? Let Grandma Li attend if she wants to. I’ll also attend tomorrow. Don’t worry. I’ll be her escort and keep an eye on her," Wang Yingjie said, appearing in the room all of a sudden.
