His Genius Wife Is A Superstar Chapter 582 - I Just Want To Hug You

Chapter 582 - I Just Want To Hug You

"Give the phone to your mistress," Jin Liwei instructed his subordinate.

"Understood, Master."

Moments later, Iris held the phone and started talking to Jin Liwei. She looked calm, not making any sound or expression of pain unlike Dom who was crying like a baby every time the paramedic touched his wounds.

"Love, how are you feeling? Are you okay?"

"I'm alright. Don't worry too much," Iris replied to the worried Jin Liwei.

Dom had her phone but during the stampede, he dropped it including his own phone and other valuables. The same thing happened to Tang Yiyi and some of the bodyguards. Those who still had their phones were too busy protecting her and taking her to safety. They had no time to make or answer any phone calls.

Jin Liwei released a sigh of relief. However, his worry would remain heavy in his heart until he could check his baby girl with his own eyes and hands. He opened his mouth about to say something but his Fifth Brother beat him to it.

"Where's the son of a b.i.t.c.h who did this? Was he caught?" Lu Zihao asked, his voice sounding like the devil. "Don't tell me he escaped."

Iris' faint smile disappeared, replaced by a grave expression. "After the explosion when some of the people started recovering, that man, he called himself Tian Kong, was mobbed and attacked by those who saw him as the one who gave me the boxwhich turned out to be a bomb. I don't know where he is now or what happened to him afterwards."

Both Jin Liwei and Lu Zihao looked bloodthirsty. They wanted to rip the son of a b.i.t.c.h into pieces.

"We're on our way there, love. I already contacted my helicopter. We'll leave together by air later," Jin Liwei informed her. "So just wait for us and stay safe until we get there."

She nodded and then informed Jin Liwei that Jin Chonglin's group got separated from them, so she had no idea where he was right now.

Their conversation was interrupted by Lu Zihao.

"Little Sister, you have to stop your d.a.m.n stupid cat. She's going out of control," he said in Russian. "She's wreaking havoc in the police and government systems all over the country, destroying a large amount of data. Your man and I have tried to make her stop but that d.a.m.n stupid cat refuses to listen to us. Her conspicuous and reckless actions have already attracted unwanted attention. My hacker team has detected the presence of other hackers, some from the authorities and some from unknown origins. They're trying to probe and catch her. So far, it looks like that d.a.m.n cat is safe from exposure for now but any mistakes will result in a dangerous disaster."

Iris paled.

Jin Liwei may have not understood what they were talking about in Russian but seeing his baby girl's reaction, he figured out that his Fifth Brother must have told her about Ketchup. He kept silent, allowing the two of them to talk. He swore that he would learn some Russian so that he wouldn't feel so out of place whenever the two started talking in the language.

After the paramedic finished treating her injuries, Iris moved to a corner and tried contacting Ketchup. Unfortunately, the cat AI was too far gone in her insanity. Iris was unable to control and calm Ketchup down. She had no time to check on the extent of the damage caused by Ketchup or how many hackers were trying catch her. All Iris cared about was to forcefully stop Ketchup as soon as possible to prevent any disaster from happening if the cat AI's real ident.i.ty was revealed.

Iris used the subordinate's phone to access Ketchup's intricate command system. The servers inside both her computer rooms at the Gold Heights penthouse and at the Dragon Palace mansion lit up and started receiving her remote commands.

A gasp escaped from her lips and her eyes widened in shock when she saw Ketchup's virtual appearance. The white cat was now almost completely back with golden eyes. Only a long strip of white coat remained on its back. Iris performed a quick check on the cat AI's system and became even more alarmed.

Ketchup's system was mutating in a frightening rate, as if a malevolent virus had infected it and started changing the cat AI's very essence.

Iris gritted her teeth and forcefully disabled the out of control Ketchup. Doing this would damage the cat AI—to what degree, even Iris was unsure. However, it was better than being discovered by others who harboured bad intentions.

'Oh, Ketchup. What have you done? Was I wrong to create you?"

Iris closed her eyes, suddenly feeling exhausted by everything that happened. After a minute, she opened her eyes and called Jin Liwei.

"Darling, please hurry. I need you right now," she said.

"What's wrong, love?" Jin Liwei's worried voice asked.

"No. I just want to hug you," she whispered.

"I'll be there in 5 minutes."

Later that day, the bomb incident was all over the news. The tally for the number of injured was being constantly updated. There were so many people at the mall show that it was difficult to count them all, especially those who were injured.

Those who were close to the explosion received the bloodiest injuries from the shrapnel shooting down on them. Iris and her group's injuries were caused by the bomb shrapnel.

However, this wasn't the sole cause of injuries among the people. The stampede also caused many to get crushed. Fortunately, most of the people present at that time consisted of the Black Stars and Jin Chonglin's army of fans. They were already familiar with each other and had excellent coordination. The leaders quickly recovered and took control of their own groups, organizing everyone to escape in the safest way possible without hurting themselves or others in the process.

The police were now investigating the bomb incident, treating it as a terrorist attack while gathering witness accounts of what happened.
