His Genius Wife Is A Superstar

Chapter 434 Self - Learning Kitty

Gu Chang nodded. "Yes, the new Chief Marketing Officer from Singapore. I heard her family is close to the Jin family, that’s why the shareholders voted for her to become the next CMO."

Iris frowned. The woman was the CMO, yet she was ordering her darling around, the President-CEO? She even had the nerve to tell her darling where to sleep and shower? Who did the woman think she was? Jin Liwei’s wife? That role was hers!

"Ketchup, identify the woman talking to your daddy and gather all available information about her," she instructed.

"Meow~ Okay, Mommy!

"Identifying Daddy’s current caller through voice recognition...

"Voiceprint matches the profile of... Rose Young, 30 years old. New Chief Marketing Officer at Jin Corporation, transferred from Singapore branch..."

Iris studied the information flooding several of the nearest computer monitors about this Rose Young. Rose Young was born in Singapore, but she had frequent travel records to China every summer since childhood. Her mother’s side of the family primarily livedin China and were good friends with the Jins.That was why when Jin Corporation opened a branch in Singapore, the Youngs were assigned to manage it.

Iris didn’t care about any of these. However, one particular information caught her attention. It was that this Rose Young also enrolled in the same ivy league business school Jin Liwei attended in the U.S. Meaning, they graduated from the same university, but in different years because Jin Liwei was two years older than her.

Normally, Iris wouldn’t feel bothered about this kind of seemingly trivial detail but she didn’t like the way the woman was talking so familiarly to her darling. Her hands tightened into fists, as she struggled to control her own vicious green-eyed monster rearing its ugly head inside of her.

The faint smile on Jin Liwei’s face disappeared upon seeing his baby girl trying to control herself. At the beginning, he felt pleased seeing her jealous. But now he only felt pissed off at the yapping woman talking to him on the phone. Now his baby girl was in a bad mood because of her!

"Miss Young, if you don’t have any other important things to say, I’ll hang up now. We are fellow executives at the company, so we have each other’s numbers. But don’t abuse your position and start calling me whenever you feel like it. It’s extremely unprofessional. This is your first warning. Do this again and you’ll be blocked," he told the woman.

"But Big Brother Liwei—"

Iris’ expression turned even darker.

Gu Chang and Diao Yijue shrank back on their seats and stayed as quiet as possible. The atmosphere was very scary!

"I’m not your brother," Jin Liwei interrupted Rose Young. "I’m the President and CEO of Jin Corporation. In short, I’m your boss and you’re my employee. Or do you not want to work at my company anymore?"

"I... My apologies, President Jin," the woman said in a meeker voice. "It’s just that it takes some time to get used to separating our work and personal relationship."

"Personal relationship? Jin Liwei, what is that woman talking about?" Iris stood up and asked her man.

"We don’t have a personal relationship. Our families are friendly but the two of us are just acquaintances. Nothing more, nothing less," he assured his baby girl.

On the other end of the line, Rose Young thought that he was directly speaking to her. "J-just acquaintances... I...I see."

"I’m hanging up now, Miss Young. Don’t bother me next time if it’s not urgent. And only concern yourself with things that are related to your job. As a CMO, it’s not your job to tell me, the President-CEO, on what to do. Do this again and I’ll use my authority to fire you, even when the entire board of directors unanimously chose you for this job."

"Big Brother—I mean, President Jin! Please don’t worry, I will—"

Jin Liwei didn’t wait for her to finish. He already hung up the call. He didn’t want to give his baby girl any reason to feel jealous.

"The board of directors unanimously chose that woman to be the CMO?" Iris asked.

"Yes," Jin Liwei replied.

"Did you also vote for her?" she asked.

"No."

"Why?"

"Because she’s annoying."

Iris studied his expression. Indeed, he looked annoyed at the woman. Then she looked at the woman’s career achievements in business which were displayed on the monitors. It seemed that Rose Young was a high achiever. The Singapore’s branch Marketing Department reached top-notch status around the same time she became its Deputy CMO.

Since the woman was qualified for her new position at the main branch, Iris just couldn’t ask Jin Liwei to fire Rose Young because she didn’t like her. Besides, she hadn’t even met the woman yet. Iris also didn’t want her darling to be at odds with the board of directors who voted for Rose Young. Not to mention that she didn’t want to interfere with how he ran his company.

’As long as she does her job well, and most importantly, keep her paws off of my man, I won’t have a big problem with her,’ Iris thought.

"Don’t think about her anymore, love. She’s no one to me," Jin Liwei told her when he returned to her side. He held her hand, raised it to his lips, and kissed it. "You’re the only woman for me."

Her mood immediately improved.

Afterwards, Iris finished up the meeting with Gu Chang and Diao Yijue. They were scheduled to start learning about the new replacement system in a couple of days.

"Come here to the penthouse when you’re off work. I’ll be very busy soon, so I may not always be at home but I’ll instruct the staff to let you in. Ketchup will also give you access to the computer room even when I’m not here. You can start learning the system from her," Iris told them.

"Will Ketchup work on the computer room at Dragon Palace as well?" Jin Liwei suddenly asked.

"Yes, I think so. I’ll just have to perform a simple installation. Why do you ask, darling?"

"Because we’ll be moving back there as soon as we’re both rested," he told her. Then he turned to his two tech people. "Don’t bother coming here. Head straight to Dragon Palace instead."

"Yes, President!"

"Understood, President!"

Iris tilted her head to the side. Maybe he was missing the mansion, so he wanted them to return sooner than what they had planned. She didn’t really mind, though. They only decided to prolong their stay here because of Wei Lan’s arrival. Nevertheless, Iris would sorely miss seeing Little Jun everyday if they returned to the mansion.

Seeing the slight reluctance in his baby girl’s expression, Jin Liwei leaned forward and whispered to her ear.

"Fifth Brother will be returning soon."

And just like what he expected, her eyes lit up and even sparkled.

"Really?"

"En."

She gripped his arm in excitement. "When?"

"Hmm... I don’t know. He didn’t say. But soon."

Iris’ mood now turned for the better. She couldn’t wait to see her brother again. It had been so long since they saw each other in person. The last time was during the Spring Festival.

The group was about to leave the computer room when Iris remembered something.

"Ketchup."

"Meow~ Yes, Mommy?"

Then she began speaking in Russian. "Put the woman who called your daddy earlier on our watch list."

The white cat swished her tail and automatically replied in Russian as well.

"Processing new instruction...

"Noted! Meow~

"Done, Mommy!"

Ketchup swished her fluffy tail again. Her green eyes glowed in an almost evil manner.

"Why don’t we just directly put her on our virtual black notebook, Mommy? Meow~"

"What are you talking about?" Jin Liwei asked the two of them. He knew that it must be something that they didn’t want him to hear about, but he still couldn’t help but ask.

"Hmm... We’re talking about the best way to protect our territory and how to deal with potential trespassers," Iris replied.

Jin Liwei was confused but decided not to ask any further. If his baby girl wanted him to know, she would tell him herself. Besides, he was too exhausted to think too much about it.

Iris spoke in Russian again. "Ketchup, watch list for now. I’ll be the one to decide whether to put her on our virtual black notebook."

"Noted! Okay, Mommy~ Ketchup has started monitoring the woman who called daddy earlier. Meow~"

Indeed, she was a smart, self-learning kitty. Noticing that her mommy didn’t mention the woman’s name, Ketchup didn’t mention it either. This way, her daddy wouldn’t know what they were talking about.

It was now time for Iris, Jin Liwei and the others to leave. Ketchup’s expression became forlorn.

"Don’t worry, Ketchup. Mommy will make it so that you can come out of the computer room soon and be with us all the time," Iris promised.

"Meow! Really, Mommy? Ketchup can’t wait!"

With that, the group left the white cat alone inside the computer room. It continued to perform her Mommy’s instructions faithfully, and in the process, she was also increasing her capacity through self-learning.

Even Iris had no idea how powerful Ketchup would become in the future. The wheels of fate started turning just a bit faster after the creation of this cute digital white cat.
