His Genius Wife is a Superstar (Web Novel)
chapter-450

Iris ended the phone call before Rose Young could reply.

"Ketchup," she called.

"Meow~ Yes, Mommy?"

"Put Rose Young's name on our virtual black notebook."

"Recording the name of...Rose Young…to the virtual notebook…

"New name added!

"Done, Mommy! Meow~"

Iris nodded and disentangled herself from Jin Liwei.

"Ketchup, prepare the computer room," she instructed. "We'll work on destroying Rose Young tonight."

"Ehehehe. Yes, Mommy! Ketchup is excited! Meow~"

Jin Liwei stood. He didn't react much upon hearing that his baby girl put Rose Young's name on her virtual black notebook. He couldn't care less about the woman. However, he cared very much about his baby girl's health, so he tried to delay her plan.

"Love, it's already so late. It's midnight now. If you do that now, who knows what time you'll finish? Both of us have an early start for work tomorrow. Let's sleep for now, okay?"

Iris was completely in a bad mood. She still hadn't recovered from her failure to orgasmearlier because of Rose Young. Her temper was not the best right now. However, she didn't want to fight with Jin Liwei. With a cold expression, she gave him a quick peck on the lips.

"I'll be fine. Go to sleep now, darling. Ketchup is helping me so it should be quick this time. I'll return and sleep with you when we're done."

"Meow~ Yes, Daddy! Ketchup has gotten so much smarter compared to the first time you met me! Ketchup will do her best to help Mommy finish this task as quickly as possible! Meow~"

Still, Jin Liwei didn't give up just yet.

"You have a very busy work schedule this month. Don't waste your time with someone insignificant like Rose Young. She's not worth your precious time, love. I'll fire her first thing in the morning. I don't care if the board of directors protests against my decision. If worse comes to worst, I'll just trouble Grandpa Lu to involve himself in the company again. I'm sure that he'll come to our aid if I explain the situation to him. You're his current favourite grandchild. He won't say no if it concerns you. So don't worry about that woman anymore. Let's sleep and rest tonight. Okay, love?"

Iris' expression didn't change. She tightened the sash of her satin robe and looked for her fluffy indoor slippers. Then she glanced at him.

"Do what you think is best. I'll do what I think best as well," she said. "You go to sleep first, darling. Goodnight."

Then she walked out of the bedroom.

Jin Liwei sighed, already knowing that he couldn't persuade her this time. He was just worried about her. She had a history of sudden health failures resulting in fainting episodes and even coma. Anything that might cause her health to suffer troubled him to no end. In addition, she was the type who valued sleep very highly. His baby girl foregoing sleep to do something else was, of course, a cause of great concern for him.

Although he already accepted her decision to skip sleep tonight, he had no intention of leaving her alone so that he could sleep himself. He hurriedly grabbed his own satin robe and wore it over his naked body.

He was on his way to follow his baby girl when his phone started ringing again. It was his fellow executive's number, the same one Rose Young used to call just a few moments ago. Jin Liwei scowled and grabbed his phone, intending to block the number. But before he could do so, the ringing stopped, followed by a short ding. It was a text message.

His colleague, not Rose Young but the actual owner of the phone, was apologizing for what happened. The man didn't expect that Rose Young would create so much trouble with Jin Liwei and his fiancée.

Jin Liwei only thought for a moment about the apology before blocking the man's number. If the man wanted to contact Jin Liwei, he would need to do so through Xu Tian from now on.

His baby girl was already gone, so he slipped the phone in his robe's pocket, and then followed after her.

The computer room was closed and locked when he arrived. He was about to press the built-in intercom but the door clicked open before he could do so.

"Meow~ Mommy says Daddy can come inside, but don't disturb her," Ketchup informed him.

"En. I understand," Jin Liwei replied.

The heavy, bullet-proof, stainless steel door fully opened to let him in.

The computer room in the mansion was several times bigger than the one at the penthouse. While the one at the penthouse was basically just a single room, this computer room was actually more like a suite. There were several interconnected rooms, so Jin Liwei had to navigate the place a bit before he finally found his baby girl.

She was sitting on her ergonomic chair…a more apt description would be that she was reclining on her large ergonomic computer station which looked like a futuristic cabin seat. Several keyboards surrounded her in layers. She could easily move the layers to change keyboards without interrupting her work. In front of her was a wall completely covered with flat screen computer monitors.

Her fingers were typing so fast that they were like a blur to Jin Liwei's eyes. He quietly walked to her and kissed her cheek. He thought that she was going to ignore him, but she slightly turned her head towards him and puckered her lips, silently asking him to kiss her there. She did this without taking her eyes off from what she was doing. Of course, he gave her what he wanted and kissed her on the lips.

After that, he didn't bother her again. He glanced at the computer monitors. They were all information about Rose Young. He didn't care about the woman, so none of the information interested him. If destroying the woman would give his baby girl peace, then he would just let her do whatever she wanted. He already made up his mind to fire Rose Young in the morning, anyway.

Since he didn't want to sleep while his baby girl was busy working, he decided to spend his time in a productive way instead. He asked Ketchup to direct him to a computer station he could use. It was one of the most basic ones in the place, but at least it also had the comfortable ergonomic cabin-like seat. He might as well complete some work while he was here. After a while, he also became absorbed in his own work.

The couple worked on their own respective tasks.

"Meow? Mommy, Ketchup has found something!"

"Send it here."

A few seconds later…

"Darling?" Iris called for Jin Liwei. "Can you come here for a moment?"

He paused his work and went to her. "What is it?" he asked.

"Look at this."

It took him almost a minute before he understood what he was looking at. They were data from Jin Corporation's Singapore branch. The Youngs were basically the ones running it. Rose Young worked as the head manager of the Marketing Department before she got promoted to work as CMO at the main headquarters in China.

Iris pointed at one of the computer monitors. "See here. Ketchup found several traces of digital footprints nearly identical to the hacker Eagle even before he hacked into Jin Corporation and several other top companies in the country this past summer."

He frowned. "The son of a bitch hacked into our Singapore branch?"

"Hmm… I wouldn't call this hacking. Someone gave him full access to the system. It's like giving a key to a thief and then rolling the red carpet when he enters your home."

"What?!"

Iris tilted her head to side, studying the data Ketchup had gathered so far. Iris was also helping speed up the process, but otherwise allowed Ketchup to do the bulk of the work in order to aid her self-learning function. Iris only provided the guidance.

"It's not only Eagle. There are also others… I'm not familiar with any of these digital footprints." She looked at him. "Darling, they've infiltrated Jin Corporation's Singapore branch. Hm?"

She narrowed her eyes, noticing something. Her fingers flew over the keyboard. Moments later, a completely new set of data appeared on the computer monitor directly in front of them.

Jin Liwei also saw it. His frown only deepened. "I'm aware that the Singapore branch hires a lot of foreign employees, but the reports sent to me didn't show this! Who are all these people? Where did they come from? They're all young and yet they already hold such high positions? Where are the older employees? What happened to them?"

The more Jin Liwei looked at the data, the more uneasy and confused he felt. This was such a weird situation.

"I should've paid more attention to the Singapore branch," he said.

"I don't think it's your fault, darling. I detect traces of falsifying information within the branch's system itself. Whoever did it don't want you to know," she told him. Then she instructed her virtual cat, "Ketchup, help me find more information about the Young family, especially those who are working or have worked at Jin Corporation's Singapore branch."

"Okay, Mommy! Meow~"

One of the side monitors showed the white cat lying on its belly like a sphinx. Her green eyes glowed brightly, as she focused on the new task her mommy gave her.

Almost immediately, information about Rose Young's father, the current head of the Singapore branch, started flooding the monitors. It wasn't only him. Ketchup unearthed a slew of unorganized information about various members of the Young family. Of course, it included Rose Young's as well.

This time, Jin Liwei helped his wife and child in organizing and making sense of all the information. He wanted to know what the hell the Youngs had been doing with the Singapore branch of his company.

Then all of a sudden, Iris jolted on her seat and shouted.

"Ketchup, stop! Retreat! Retreat now!! No!!!"
