His Genius Wife Is A Superstar-Chapter 1478 A Parent’s Protective Instinct

Dragon Palace Home #10.

Jin Liwei pressed the remote control and the TV turned off. They just finished watching the Chief of Police's press conference about the arrest of Mao Qiuyue's parents.

Iris asked the others, "What do you think?"

"The Chief of Police did an excellent job dodging some of the questions," Jin Liwei commented.

Lin Yehan nodded. "It may look like he said a lot, but the information he revealed isn't actually that substantial."

"Is it true that Mr. Mao has become blind and deaf while Mrs. Mao broke both of her hands?" Jiang Ying Yue asked.

Both Iris and Jin Liwei didn't reply to her question nor did they react. Lin Yehan observed them, but couldn't read anything from their expressions. But their silence alone meant that they most likely knew something.

"I…I know who rescued Little Jun," Jiang Ying Yue said in a careful tone. "My son told me that his Uncle Haohao is a superhero who saves little children like him."

Iris and Jin Liwei looked at each other.

Lin Yehan sighed. "Don't treat us like we're stupid, Third Brother. I already long noticed that Fifth Brother has been busy with some…hm, shady stuff. I just don't comment on it because I still trust him. And at least, he has settled down a lot now compared to before when he's always running off to the next highest mountain to ski."

"Did…did Sir Zihao do that to Mao Qiuyue's parents?" Jiang Ying Yue asked.

Iris narrowed her eyes and asked her point blank, "If my big brother did, are you against it?"

Jiang Ying Yue froze for a second before shaking her head in a hurry. "That's not what I meant, Xiulan."

"Then why are you asking like that?" Iris asked, the challenge clear in her voice.

"Third Sister-in-law," Lin Yehan said in a warning tone.

In turn, Jin Liwei also warned him, "Eldest Brother."

The tense atmosphere increased until Jiang Ying Yue was the first to be unable to take it.

"Everyone, please stop!" Jiang Ying Yue then patted her husband's hand, trying to calm him down, before addressing the defensive couple.

"Xiulan, Sir Liwei, please don't think that I'm accusing Sir Zihao of anything. That's not my intention at all. I just…I just want to know what really happened. I…you know that I hold great respect for Sir Zihao. He has helped train and improve my hand-to-hand combat skills before alongside my colleagues here. We've always appreciated him. And now that he saved my son from great danger, I now owe him a big debt that I don't think I'll be able to repay in my entire life."

Iris and Jin Liwei remained silent, but at least their defensive aura gradually subsided.

Jiang Ying Yue continued, "I'm not trying to stand on a moral high ground by asking whether Sir Zihao was the one who injured Mao Qiuyue's parents or not. I'm not trying to accuse him of anything. Really, I'm not! I just want to know…because I want to thank him!"

Then she burst into tears.

Lin Yehan immediately wrapped his arm around her and started comforting her.

"I'm okay, Yehan." She wiped her tears, but they kept on flowing. "When I learned that Mao Qiuyue's parents hurt my son, I wanted to kill them with my own hands!"

Iris' eyes softened, and she completely returned to normal. "I know. I felt the same way."

Jin Liwei then said, "Whether Fifth Brother did it or not is not our business to tell. If you want to know, you can ask him directly."

"Okay." Jiang Ying Yue nodded. "I understand."

He added, "But don't forget that Fifth Brother is the one who rescued your son from the kidnappers. Those criminals didn't even demand ransom. It's clear that their motive is to purely hurt the child and devastate us."

"I know," she whispered.

Lin Yehan didn't want to see her so upset anymore. "We'll thank Fifth Brother later when we do see him. Fifth Sister-in-law Jinjing says that he's still very busy until now."

"Little Jun also looks up to him now," Jiang Ying Yue added, her mood improving. She even started to smile again. "He now thinks that his Uncle Haohao is the best uncle in the world because he's a superhero."

Everyone chuckled, completely dispelling the tense atmosphere from before.

"We won't ask you two anymore about Fifth Brother's business," Lin Yehan said afterward. "We'll ask him directly if we have any questions, but the fact that we're grateful for him will never change."

"En." Jin Liwei nodded.

Iris also felt relieved that Jiang Ying Yue and Lin Yehan weren't accusing her big brother of being heavy-handed with Mao Qiuyue's parents. ƒrēenovelkiss.com

At the same time, she was glad that her big brother listened to her and hadn't outright killed Mr. and Mrs. Mao. He even fulfilled his promise and dropped off the couple near a police station where the police found them.

Now that she was a parent especially a mother, she understood the bone-deep instinct to protect her children. She and her husband had long considered Little Jun like their own child, so of course, they wanted to punish anyone who dared hurt him.

They didn't feel sorry at all for Mr. and Mrs. Mao.

It wasn't a question of morals and ethics, or of whether they deserved it or not, but of the need for parents to avenge the injustice done to their children.

In a way, Mr. and Mrs. Mao were the same. They also tried to avenge what happened to their daughter, Mao Qiuyue. Unfortunately, they messed with the wrong people.

They shouldn't have touched Little Jun, no matter how much they hated the child's mother and biological father. The child had many elders who loved him and doted on him—powerful elders who would do anything to keep him happy and safe.

Iris and Jin Liwei had already shown Mr. and Mrs. Mao enough mercy by advising Lu Zihao to leave them alive for the police to handle.

Whatever happened to them during the process was just reaping what they sowed, especially after all the horrific things they did to Little Jun.
