His Genius Wife Is A Superstar Chapter 422 - Special Secret Weapon

Chapter 422 - Special Secret Weapon

At around the same time in other places, Long Tengfei's past women also saw the recent photos of Wei Lan and Jiang Ying Yue online.
Sun Jingfei was an owner of a small bookstore that also sold basic school and office supplies. It doubled as a gift shop as well. She was Long Jinjing's mother.
She was working at her bookstore when her best friend who was also her employee showed her the photos.
"Look! That biggest bitch in the whole wide world is back! Wei Lan had been gone from the country for so long that I almost forgot her existence! I wish she never returned! Ah, now that she's back, I guess she's going to make lots of trouble again! I'll never forget how she bullied you before! And how her daughter tormented our sweet Little Jinjing! That little demoness is exactly like her mother! Bitches!"
Sun Jingfei only sighed and shook her head gently. "Calm down. That was so long ago. Wei Lan was Long Tengfei's wife. Of course, she wouldn't like me, a mistress."
"Hmph! You were already in Long Tengfei's life before he even met her!"
"Even so. I was just a mistress. Let's put history behind us where it belongs, in the past. Besides, both Jinjing and Xiao Fei are now friends with Long Xiulan. They're even working together at the same company which Long Xiulan owns. Jinjing already told us that her sister has changed and is now very kind to her. I think this is good that they're finally treating each other like sisters as they should. All of them are friends now, including this young lady here." Sun Jingfei pointed at Jiang Ying Yue in the photos.
Her best friend still felt skeptical about Iris' good relationship with Long Jinjing.
Sun Jingfei didn't pay too much attention to her best friend's complaints. She just looked at all the photos of Wei Lan looking gorgeous as ever with Jiang Ying Yue and an entourage of similarly well-dressed people.
"Why should we continue treating each other as enemies? Both of us are that man's past now. We shouldn't let him influence our current lives so much anymore," she murmured.###
A very different scene was playing at Zhu Ning's house. Many of her friends sent her the link to the popular street fashion blog. She went momentarily crazy when she saw the photos online. She and Wei Lan were the ones among Long Tengfei's women who fought each other the most. Their fights weren't catfights. They were violent brawls.
There were many instances that they beat each other up so badly that they had to be hospitalized. Of course, they also sued each other many times. They even experienced being slapped by restraining orders by each other.
The two hated each other to the core. It didn't help that both of them easily lost their tempers. They treated each other like mortal enemies.
Needless to say, the house was wrecked after Zhu Ning saw Wei Lan's recent photos showing that she had finally returned to the country. Fortunately, Long Jian was at work. The maids immediately cleaned up the place, so that he wouldn't discover that his mother had wrecked almost everything in their house…again.
Seeing Wei Lan looking as gorgeous, sexy and youthful as ever in the photos, Zhu Ning was boiling with envy and hatred. She immediately decided to make another appointment with her dermatologist—and maybe her plastic surgeon, as well.
"If I see ever see that bitch, I'll pull all of her hair out and scratch her fake face off!"
Then she finally noticed Jiang Ying Yue beside Wei Lan and sneered.
"What a cunning ho. Now that her man is losing power in the Long clan, she's ingratiating herself with that little slut Xiulan. Dream on! There's no way that little slut would be able to inherit the Long clan and Long Industries! I'll never let Wei Lan's daughter triumph! And neither will I let that swine Long Hui succeed! The one who'll get everything of the Longs is my son, Long Jian!"
###The Long elders and various relatives also learned that Wei Lan was back. Those supporting Iris suddenly hesitated and started second-guessing their decision. They treated Wei Lan as a liability in Iris' chances of becoming the successor. Long Jufang quickly calmed them down, though.
As for Long Hui's supporters within the clan, they were extremely unhappy seeing Jiang Ying Yue and her son together with Wei Lan. Long Meng redoubled her efforts in persuading Long Hui to leave Jiang Ying Yue and marry someone else.
Wei Lan's reappearance made everyone involved in the Long clan's battle for succession restless.
Iris' supporters were hoping that Wei Lan wouldn't ruin her daughter's chances, while Long Hui and the other candidates' supporters were already thinking of various ways of using Wei Lan to kick Iris out of the battle of succession once and for all.

While people were stressing out about her chances of winning the battle of succession in the Long clan, Iris wasn't thinking about it at all. Since there weren't any updates from her financial manager about any available Long Industries shares that they could buy, she tossed the matter out of her mind for now.
She was more concerned about Orchidia Beauty and her new songs with Jin Chonglin. All of them were set to launch next season which was very soon.
In addition to these, she was also very excited about her plans of finally announcing her engagement with her darling to the public. Surprisingly, Wei Lan kept her promise and didn't tell a single soul about their engagement. It seemed that Wei Lan was really doing her best into becoming a respectable viscountess.
Iris had already confirmed that Wei Lan was indeed officially married to a Spanish viscount. The Viscountcy of Castillo de Estrellas really existed and its current title-holder was Wei Lan's new husband.Satisfied by her findings, Iris didn't dig any further. She only did the most basic background check to confirm Wei Lan's marriage to the viscount.
She was too busy these days that she didn't really have the interest nor the time to dig deeper into the viscount's background. The orphanages caught her attention at first, but she temporarily dismissed them for now. Perhaps she was just being too suspicious and paranoid, thinking that they were similar to the Vetrovs' training program.
Besides, she was already starting to treat Wei Lan as family. Iris was pleased seeing the growing confidence in her friend, Jiang Ying Yue, under Wei Lan's "mentorship".
Iris had a new personal policy not to "spy" on family members without their permission. Jin Liwei was the only one who gave her permission so far, but she didn't want to abuse it.
Wei Lan gave her a book titled "How to Keep Your Man Hooked on You for as Long as You Live". One of the main points in the book was that men didn't like women who watched their every move because it would make them feel suffocated. They would think that their women didn't trust them enough, causing resentment to grow.
Iris didn't want Jin Liwei to resent her, so even though he gave her permission, she stopped spying on him when there really wasn't any need to do so.
Her life was going extremely well right now. She wanted to focus on living a happy and normal life with Jin Liwei and the rest of their family and friends. Music, showbiz and her businesses were her current career priorities.
Hacking would have to take a backseat for now. It was her special secret weapon that she would use if needed. She was discovering that she could survive perfectly fine without hacking regularly.
It was already late at night, yet Jin Liwei hadn't arrived home yet. He already called her saying that he would be running late tonight. She trusted him, so she didn't think much about it. After telling him some quick sweet-nothings, she prepared for bed.
However, as she was about to nod off to deep sleep, her phone started ringing. It was her ringtone for Jin Liwei."Hello...darling?" she answered the call, her tone obviously sleepy.
"Sorry for disturbing you, love."
"Hmmm...it's okay..."
"Love…I need your help."
Although his voice sounded calm, Iris still heard the urgency in his tone. She immediately became alert.
"What's wrong, darling?"
"Jin Corporation is being hacked."
