Chapter 1027 - Panther Jin

Jin Liwei opened his mouth but closed it again. He wasn’t sure how to explain why he wouldn’t allow his AI son to use Pussy Jin as Bacon’s English name.

Both his AI children might seem very mature because of their eloquence and powerful computer skills they inherited from their mother, but based on their ages, Ketchup and Bacon were basically still babies. There was no doubt that one day, Jin Liwei and his wife would eventually need to educate their AI children about some "adult things" when the two were a little older and more mature, but for now, the husband and wife preferred for Ketchup and Bacon to retain their "childhood innocence" longer.

He sighed. "That name is no good. Choose another one."

Ketchup continued whining while Bacon looked to be contemplating.

"If you can’t think of any, I’ll help you think of one," he suggested in a hurry, a little worried that the cunning Bacon might register his English name as Pussy Jin behind his back when signing the employment contract for White Tigress.

"Please wait a moment, Father," Bacon said. "I’ll consult with Mother first." Then the black cat AI’s golden eyes dimmed.

About a couple of minutes later, Bacon’s eyes glowed again. "Father, Bacon is back."

Jin Liwei already had an idea how his wife responded based on Ketchup’s sulky posture.

"Mother and Uncle Dominic both say that Pussy Jin is no good so Bacon won’t use it."

"Aaaw! The cute and mighty Ketchup still thinks that Pussy Jin is perfect! Meow...."

"Mother laughed while Uncle Dominic looked horrified. Bacon doesn’t understand why Pussy Jin isn’t a good name but since Mother says it’s no good, then Bacon now thinks it’s no good, too."

’I was the first one who told you that it’s no good,’ Jin Liwei thought. But more importantly, he felt relieved that Bacon didn’t insist on using such a horrible name. It was a good thing that whenever his wife said something, even the hard-headed Bacon would obey it 100%.

"How about Bacon use Panther Jin as my English name instead? Is it alright, Father?"

"Oh oh oh! The cute and mighty Ketchup thinks that Panther Jin is good, too! It matches our Black Stars usernames! I’m KittyBaby while my little kitty brother is PantherBaby! We’re going to be known as the awesome Team Kitty and Panther Babies! Perfect, right? Meow~"

The two cat AIs looked at their father in unison, their adorable feline faces filled with hopeful expectation.

Jin Liwei began tapping his fingers on the desk again as he considered the name. "It’s a little unusual but it’s much better than Pus—than that horrible name. Alright, Bacon. From now on, your English name is Panther Jin, if that’s what you really want."

Bacon’s tail rotated like helicopter rotors and his eyes glowed brightly. "Thank you, Father."

"Yay yay! Panther Jin, you have to do an excellent job when you work as a temporary worker in my company, okay? Your cute and mighty Big Sister Ketchup is your boss now so—"

"You’re not my boss yet. Bacon hasn’t signed the contract yet."

"Tiantian, hurry up and draft the contract! The cute and mighty Ketchup can’t wait to become my little kitty brother’s super-duper awesome to the highest level boss! Meow~"

"Please don’t worry, Young Miss Ketchup. I’ll definitely submit it to you before the workday is over."

Now that his AI son’s English name was settled, Jin Liwei instructed the AI siblings to start fortifying the company’s security system and defend against malicious hacker attacks. He was still a little worried about Bacon who just had a meltdown earlier but he trusted the increasingly dependable Ketchup. She would surely keep an eye on her little brother. However, he still sent a message to both Gu Chang and Diao Yijue to inform him if anything happened to his two AI children.

Xu Tian continued discussing other matters with him before reminding him about the dinner with the executives later that evening. "Sir, should I confirm with Mrs. Jin if she’s still coming tonight?"

"No, it’s fine. If my wife is able to come, then she will come. If not, it’s fine. But increase the security at the restaurant tonight just in case."

"Understood, President." Xu Tian took note of it on his tablet.

Later that evening, Jin Liwei and Xu Tian arrived at the entrance of a five-star hotel. The sky was already dark but the city lights were bright everywhere. This was a rather wealthy area, so there weren’t a lot of people loitering on the streets. However, Jin Liwei was still recognized by some especially since his name and his face had been so conspicuous in the headlines in the last few days.

"Wow, it’s CEO Jin! He’s much more handsome and taller in person than I initially expected!"

"CEO Jin, please choose me as one of the winners in your special contest! I poured my heart and soul in recreating Boss Iris’ iconic stage performance moments in the video I submitted!"

"President Jin, please take care of Boss Iris! If you dare cheat on her or hurt her, all of us from the Slippers Army will whack you with our mighty slippers!"

If this was before, Jin Liwei would have ignored any random people trying to catch his attention. But it was different now. These people, the Black Stars, were his wife’s loyal supporters. He stopped in his tracks and looked at the small group of people.

"En, don’t worry. I’ll definitely take care of my wife and never cheat on her. There’s no need to remind me."

"Kyaaaaah! Boss Iris’ husband talked to us! Who said that he’s a cold and snobbish prick again?"

Jin Liwei chuckled, causing the fans and the other bystanders to stare at him in a daze regardless of whether they were male or female.

"Thank you for supporting my wife. Please continue to support her."

"No problem, CEO Jin! We, the Black Stars, will follow Boss Iris for the rest of our lives!"

Jin Liwei nodded.

Xu Tian stepped forward this time and redirected the people’s attention to him while the bodyguards led Jin Liwei inside the hotel.
