His Genius Wife Is A Superstar

Chapter 1525  Legend of the Great Fantom (Part V)

Grandpa Lu took it upon himself to scold his old friends again, warning them about asking any more questions regarding Drakon's disciples.

"I just think that if WhiteTrigress and BlackPanther are truly still young children, then that means that they're also true geniuses," one of his friends said. "They would benefit a lot if they enroll in Cross Academy."

Another gentleman asked Iris and Jin Liwei, "Are the two under your custody?"

"En." Jin Liwei said.

Well, Ketchup and Bacon were his and his wife's own AI cat children. So technically, the two AI cats were under their custody. Nobody would be able to find any paper trails about the so-called custody, though.

Someone asked, "Your adopted kids?"

Neither Iris nor Jin Liwei replied to that question.

Grandpa Lu interrupted. "Why are you still asking so many questions like insecure boyfriends? Tell me, I want to know! Liwei my boy already told you not to keep on digging deeper but you all still insist. Don't blame this old man for not warning you if your secrets are revealed to the world! Hmph!"

Like the husband and wife, Grandpa Lu also felt very protective of Ketchup and Bacon. He also considered the AI cats as his great-grandbabies.

Ketchup was very sweet and caring to an old man like him. Bacon, on the other hand, reminded him so much of the new Haohao—a two-faced, crooked rascal! He was still extremely adorable, though.

The old man understood that by creating such advanced AI entities like Ketchup and Bacon, Iris had already put herself in great danger. Keeping Ketchup and Bacon's existence a secret was of the utmost importance.

Even those from Cross Academy couldn't be trusted with this kind of incredibly dangerous secret. Greed could change people's hearts.

It wasn't worth the risk.

There was no way that Grandpa Lu would allow his friends to endanger his disciple and his AI cat great-grandbabies!

In the end, the threat of their deepest and darkest secrets being revealed to the whole world became enough deterrent to the gentlemen in the room to keep their mouths zipped about the revelations they learned today.

For now, at least.

Grandpa Lu's friends now looked at Iris Long in a different light. Now they knew that her beauty was deceptive.

She was a wolf in sheep's clothing!

They realized that her connections weren't inferior to theirs. In fact, she was the most dangerous out of everyone here.

Just her connection to the legendary hacker Fantom was enough to prove that she wasn't simple at all.

Even though they didn't know the extent of what Fantom had taught her, nobody among the people present had not heard of Drakon yet.

Drakon was the rising star hacker of today alongside her supposed disciples, WhiteTigress and BlackPanther. Now that she had confirmed that the two were indeed her disciples, it just proved that her own capabilities should not put her master Fantom's legacy to shame.

With how today's world was becoming more and more reliant on computers, mobile devices, and the internet, hackers were a frightening existence. They could compromise people's data and destroy lives, not to mention disrupt government services and economies.

Grandpa Lu's group of friends couldn't help but curse their bad luck for encountering such a deceptively dangerous beautiful young woman.

Indeed, the saying was correct.

Curiosity killed the cat.

Damn their curiosity!

Now they had to deal with being blackmailed with their deepest and darkest secrets.

In contrast to these gentlemen's worries, the nerdy tech billionaire looked like he had finally ascended to heaven. His eyes were filled with worship for Iris Long.

The way he looked at her caused Jin Liwei to barely control his temper. If not for Iris holding him back, he might have already lashed out at the nerdy tech billionaire and taught him how to look at someone else's wife properly.

After Iris coerced promises not to divulge today's revelations to other people, she finally let them go.

The nerdy tech billionaire looked reluctant to part with her.

"The launch party isn't over yet," she told him in a helpless tone.

"Ahem!" Jin Liwei positioned himself between his wife and the other man.

The nerdy tech billionaire could only leave the private showroom with great reluctance.

If others saw them right now without knowing the specific situation, they might think that the trio was involved in a love triangle.

The way the nerdy tech billionaire looked at Iris was like a jilted lover who saw the woman he loved with another man.

Jin Liwei understood this, so his expression became increasingly ugly.

As for Iris, she didn't think too much about it. She already treated the nerdy tech billionaire as a fan.

Now that the others left, Grandpa Lu could finally speak his mind more freely.

"That was close, Xiulan my girl! Ah, this kind of overly stimulating incident is too much for your poor grandpa's old heart!"

Although Grandpa Lu said these words, the twinkle in his eyes betrayed the thrill he felt. He definitely enjoyed what just happened.

Iris consoled him while he continued pretending to be a fragile old man. Both Iris and Jin Liwei knew that Grandpa Lu must be feeling great.

Although Iris was curious, she didn't dare to question the old man about the extent of his knowledge of her secret identity. His big brother had already hinted to her long ago that the old man wasn't as simple as they thought. Grandpa Lu might know more than he let on.

After a few moments, Grandpa Lu finally left the couple alone in the private showroom.

Once he was gone, the flat-screen TV hanging by the wall meant to entertain waiting customers at the shop flickered and showed a fluffy white cat with glowing green eyes. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

"Hello, Mommy and Daddy! Did the cute and mighty Ketchup do a good job? Meow~"

"Yes, Ketchup," Iris said with a smile. "You did an excellent job. Thank you. You saved Mom."

"Hehehe~"

"Keep an eye on those uncles and grandpas, Ketchup," Jin Liwei said next. "Don't hesitate to extort them if they so much as breathe a word of what happened inside this room."

A black cat with golden eyes appeared next to Ketchup.

"Extort? Does Father need Bacon's assistance?"
