His Genius Wife is a Superstar
Chapter 1414 Uncle Hui
Chapter 1414 Uncle Hui
Long Hui somewhat felt ambushed by all the unfriendly gazes directed at him. Lu Zihao looked like he was about to beat him up if not for Long Jinjing holding him back. Iris and Jin Liwei were also present. But, just like before, the couple''s gazes on him were cold. Only his other half-sister, Long Jinjing, gave him a welcoming albeit nervous smile.
He wanted to leave, but his excited son pulled him farther into the nursery. A fat, grey cat blocked their path and glared at Long Hui. He remembered this temperamental cat. It was called Ice Cream if he remembered correctly. Sometimes, she would be pleasant and even friendly when in a good mood, but more often than not, she looked like she wanted to claw someone''s face off. This cat was the total opposite of the warm and affectionate Popcorn.
Little Jun hugged the glaring Ice Cream and tried to assure his feline cousin that his father meant no harm, just like what he did earlier with the puppy, Gravy. Unfortunately, Ice Cream didn''t seem to change her mind and continued throwing a murderous look at Long Hui, but at least she didn''t look like she was about to scratch his face off.
As for Little Jun, he was already used to Ice Cream''s grumpiness. He was feeling too happy introducing his father to his four baby cousins. Both Little Mochi and Little Matcha were on the carpeted floor while the Lu twins were in their parents'' arms. They looked at the stranger with wariness, perhaps remembering what happened with Rene? Alejandro before.
Little Jun was too young to read and analyze the tense atmosphere. His enthusiasm was the only positive aspect in the room at the moment.
"Dada, dis Junjun baby bwoders! Dis Mochi, dis Matcha. Dat Dima, dat Misha! Junjun wuv babies!" (Daddy, these are Junjun''s baby brothers! This is Mochi and Matcha. That''s Dima and Misha! Junjun loves the babies!)
Long Hui studied his nephews. That was right. All four babies were his biological nephews.
The ones on the carpeted floor were the Jin twins. They didn''t look alike at all. One was Jin Liwei''s carbon copy, while the other resembled Iris. No, that wasn''t entirely accurate. The other one resembled Wei Lan.
As for the Lu twins, they were identical. However, they didn''t resemble any of their parents at all.
Little Jun pulled his father and sat beside his Jin cousins on the carpet.
"Mochi, Matcha, dis Junjun dada!" (Mochi, Matcha, this is Junjun''s daddy!)
Then he began regaling his baby cousins with his adventures earlier that day, mainly about the animals he saw at the zoo. The adults present couldn''t understand most of what he was babbling about. Nevertheless, his baby cousins appeared absorbed in listening to him. The babies'' wariness towards Long Hui disappeared as their full attention shifted to their Big Brother Jun instead.

Little Jun seemed to have forgotten about the scary encounter with the ugly female monster who screamed at him at the mall.
Long Hui took one look at the baby and remembered the time when Little Jun was also this small. Without his control, something warm and fuzzy filled his chest. His body also began to move before he could think about his actions. The baby was already in his arms when he returned to his senses.
Little Dima stared at him with innocent and very adorable eyes. The baby was soft and warm—everything that stimulated his paternal instincts.
"Good baby," he murmured. His expression was soft.
A few feet away, Little Misha began to struggle in his father''s arms. "Mikhail, stop it," Lu Zihao reprimanded. Unfortunately, Little Misha continued wiggling like a slippery worm. He tried reaching out to his mother''s group on the carpet. His twin brother and cousins were all there. Why was he the only one left out? He wanted to join them, too! His daddy was no fun at all. The exasperated Lu Zihao''s patience was almost at its limit.
"Stop it, you little—"
"Zihao, please," Long Jinjing said in a pleading tone.
He didn''t want to give in, but what could he do when his wife looked at him like that? Sighing, he grudgingly brought their other son to join the group on the floor. But, of course, he didn''t forget to continue glaring at Long Hui. Little Misha was still unable to hold his head without support, but that didn''t stop the daring baby from wanting to join in all the fun. He waved his little arms and kicked his little feet until his bad-tempered daddy placed him beside his cousins.
"This is Lu Tianyu," Long Jinjing introduced her eldest twin son to Long Hui. "We call him Little Misha."
"Your sons look exactly the same," Long Hui commented. "I can''t tell them apart."
Lu Zihao rolled his eyes. "They''re identical twins. Of course, they look alike."
Long Hui ignored the man''s sarcasm. He didn''t remember offending Lu Zihao at all, but the scar-faced man seemed to hate him even more than Jin Liwei did for the sake of Iris.
Never mind what the man thought about him. Every single one of these people, except for the innocent children, were his enemies anyway.
He would just take advantage of this moment to bond with his own son and nephews. This might be the last time that a ceasefire like this would happen. His nephews might grow to despise and avoid him in the future, but that was something he didn''t need to worry about right now.
Just for tonight, he would be their Uncle Hui. And that was enough.
