His Genius Wife is a SuperstarHis Genius Wife is a Superstar
After today's recording session, Iris and Enrique came out of the studio's live room to the control room where JJ and the technicians waited for them. JJ handed each of them a bottle of room temperature water.
"Good job today, both of you!" JJ said.
"Thanks," Iris replied with a smile.
Enrique acknowledged him with a polite nod.
"Let's go eat out and celebrate since it's our first day of recording this album," JJ announced. "I already booked a restaurant."
"Okay, but let me call my husband first to let him know," she said.
JJ gave her a mocking snort. "Just tell your husband to come, too! But there will be drinking, so don't bring the babies!"
Iris didn't mind his bad temper. She knew that although he spoke like this, he doted on her children very much.
In fact, JJ was already looking forward to when the twins would grow up. He hoped that they inherited their mother's talent in music. If he was still alive by the time they wanted to pursue a music career, he wanted to help produce their first album.
When he shared this dream with her hoping to get her approval, she only shrugged and told him that it was up to her children whether they wanted to follow in her footsteps in music or not.
If they did become musicians in the future, then she and her husband would of course support them. But if not, it didn't matter. She and Jin Liwei would always support their children in whatever they wished to pursue as long as they didn't do anything harmful to themselves, others, and society.
JJ only snorted at her answer and didn't insist anymore.
Back to the present, Iris already finished calling Jin Liwei. After hearing that JJ said that it was fine for him to come, Jin Liwei didn't hesitate to do so.
The musicians and other staff working on the album cheered when they heard that their boss, JJ, was treating them to dinner today. The musicians were especially happy and relieved to have a chance to unwind after an exhausting workday.
Most of them had worked with Iris Long before. They already knew about her meticulous work style and her pursuit of her own vision of perfection. Working with her was definitely not for the faint-hearted.
To be honest, she was even tougher to work with than the bad-tempered JJ. She wasn't a tyrant in any sense, but her attention to the smallest details could get exhausting. They had to be in perfect condition all the time because if not, then she would never feel satisfied and the recording wouldn't stop.
At the same time, they loved working with her because her passion for music was something that they also resonated with very much. They didn't expect to learn so many new things from someone so much younger than them.
It was no wonder that she was a multi-award-winning musician. She deserved all the awards she won and more.
Now that Enrique Valdez was added to the equation, they all agreed with JJ calling this album a legendary dream collaboration. Every single one of them felt lucky to be part of this project.
Throughout the day, they also experienced Enrique Valdez's focused and meticulous style. Together with Iris Long, the musicians and everyone working on the project felt the need to always maintain their best conditions.
Enrique Valdez might have left most people with the impression that he was the silent, brooding type, but everyone discovered today that he was actually fierce when working on music.
He was definitely fiercer than Iris Long. He didn't use any insulting words unlike JJ, but Enrique Valdez's aura was enough to intimidate all of them.
So this was what working with the legendary hitmaker felt like.
After the celebratory dinner at the restaurant, everyone headed home. Iris opened her car window and waved at the small crowd of people gathered outside the restaurant who came after learning that she was there.
Cameras flashed and screams arose as she smiled mainly at her fans, the loyal Black Stars.
There were also paparazzi, of course, but she didn't acknowledge them. As long as they didn't intrude on her privacy too much, she would just treat them like air.
She closed her window and relaxed her head on her husband's shoulder.
"Tired?" Jin Liwei asked while pulling her closer.
She snuggled closer to him. "No. I'm very excited. We're finally recording the album after so long."
"It's my fault that you delayed it again and again."
Iris sat up straight and looked at him straight in the eye. "You know that I would never trade giving birth to our children for this album. So don't say that it's your fault. Without you, we won't even have our children in the first place."
His eyes softened at her words. "Okay, I won't say it again."
She stared at him for a few more seconds before returning to snuggle with him. "I'm just grateful that Teacher Enrique waited this long to work with me. He has been so patient and understanding of the many delays on my side."
"En." He kissed her fragrant hair. "We'll treat him better."
"Yes, we should. He already sacrificed too much of his time for this album. I also need to do my best so as not to disappoint him. Of course, I'm also doing this for myself."
"You'll do it, love. I know you will."
She smiled and hugged his waist. With his gentle touches on her hair and back, she fell into deep sleep in no time.
When they finally arrived home, Jin Liwei carried his sleeping wife to their bedroom. The twins were also already asleep in their large crib bed with the cats. The dogs were on the floor.
The nannies greeted him and reported the babies' activities during the day before withdrawing for the night.
Little Matcha inherited his mother's ability to sleep deeply. He didn't rouse at all.
Little Mochi, on the other hand, was a restless sleeper. Perhaps sensing his parents' arrival, the fussy baby woke up with a loud cry.
Now that she was a mother, Iris developed the ability to hijack her original skill to sleep deeply and would now wake up whenever her babies cried.
Jin Liwei sighed and shook his head at his eldest twin son waking up his poor, exhausted wife.
