His Genius Wife is a Superstar

Chapter 398: Surprise Delivery

Inside his office, Jin Liwei and his employees were busy resolving the emergency problem. He was too focused on work that he forgot about his hunger.

However, his employees didn't have an iron will like him. A few stomachs began growling. They blushed in embarrassment.

Jin Liwei inwardly sighed, but outwardly he looked cold, indifferent and serious as always. He glanced at his gold wristwatch. It was already mid-afternoon, way past lunch time.

"The food should be coming soon," he told them.

They nodded and continued working.

Finally, there was a brief knock and the door opened. Xu Tian entered followed by three of Jin Liwei's subordinates from home.

"Hm?" Jin Liwei frowned in confusion. He didn't call for them. Why did they come? His gaze fell on the huge, bulky canvas bags they were carrying.

"Good afternoon, Master. We apologize for disturbing you at work. However, we had to come because the Mistress instructed us to deliver lunch to you and your employees. She is upset that you haven't eaten lunch yet when it's already so late," one of them said.

"Oh." Jin Liwei's frown evaporated, replaced by a soft and gentle expression. He nodded. "Alright. Bring in the food. Everyone, come. My fiancée had lunch delivered for us."

His employees still couldn't get used to seeing their President with a gentle expression. It was already common knowledge in the company that their President loved his fiancée, courtesy of the employees who witnessed him talking to her on the phone on several occasions.

All of the employees at Jin Corporation had been wondering about the real identity of the President's fiancée. Unfortunately, they still didn't know who she was.

At the moment, the employees present in the office were all ravenous. They eyed the huge canvas bags the President's three subordinates were unpacking on a nearby table.

There were several big and fancy bento boxes that had three layers each stacked on top of one another. There were also small round containers of steaming hot soup. Carton boxes were opened, revealing different desserts to choose from. A small cooler contained chilled drinks of water, iced teas, juices and sodas.

Xu Tian heated up some water for those who wanted hot tea instead of the cold beverages.

Stomachs growled more loudly this time upon seeing all the food. The eyes of Jin Liwei's employees lit up. Their mouths watered and they swallowed hard after smelling the delicious aromas. They couldn't wait to gobble up all the food. It was a feast.

"Go ahead and get some food," Jin Liwei said, giving them the long-awaited permission.

As the employees were all extremely hungry, they didn't bother acting modestly and immediately swarmed like ravenous, salivating dogs around the table, taking a bento box each.

They were interrupted by a ringing sound. It was Jin Liwei's office phone. Jin Liwei was far from his desk, so he had to walk over to answer it. But before he could even do so, the phone answered by itself.

"Hello, darling? Can you hear me?" a deep robotic voice suddenly sounded.

The employees all froze and looked at their President in alarm. Hearing such an unnatural voice speaking out of nowhere creeped them out. Two of the employees present were from Jin Liwei's tech team. They stood up and marched towards the phone. They already concluded that it was hacked.

"Yes, love. I can hear you," Jin Liwei replied, shocking his employees.

His tech people stopped in their tracks.

"Okay, good. Go ahead and eat first, darling. It's already so late but you haven't eaten lunch yet. That's not healthy, you know. What if you get sick? I'm so worried," the creepy robotic voice said.

Jin Liwei's mouth curved up into a smile. "Alright. I'll eat now. Thank you for the food." Then he glanced at his employees, giving them a silent order with his eyes.

"Thank you very much for the food!" they all said loudly towards the phone.

The deep robotic voice chuckled, making the employees shudder. The sound was honestly the creepiest thing ever.

"You're welcome, everyone. Enjoy the food, so you'll have enough energy to continue working with my fiancé. You too, darling. Eat well, okay?"

"En, I will."

He finally took a bento box for himself. The number of bento boxes were perfect for the number of people in the office room, including Xu Tian. His three subordinates already ate earlier, so they didn't join in eating. Jin Liwei raised an eyebrow, guessing how she was able to know how many people to feed.

"Are you watching us right now?" he asked.

"Yes."

He immediately looked at one of the security cameras inside his office and gave a wave.

The robotic voice giggled. The sound terrified the employees, especially the females.

"I see you," it said.

"Go wave at my fiancée," Jin Liwei ordered the others.

His employees obeyed and waved at the security camera, feeling weird in doing so. It didn't feel like they were interacting with a fellow human being but with a supernatural entity instead, especially since they couldn't see the other person and all they could hear was a creepy robotic voice.

"I checked up on you around noon but saw that you were in a meeting. Then I checked up on you again an hour later but you were still not finished. So I placed an order for lunch and instructed your subordinates to go deliver them. The other participants in your meeting earlier also received bento boxes. They worked so hard for you. They deserve to eat some good food."

Jin Liwei nodded. "I see. Thank you, love."

"You're welcome, darling."

The two members of the tech team looked at the phone, at their boss, at the security camera, and at each other. Great amazement filled them. They had already concluded that their President's fiancée was a skilled hacker. They understood her meaning when she said that she "checked up" on them as viewing them from the security cameras.

Although it was possible that the President gave her direct access to the company's surveillance system, they believed that he didn't. Because if he did, their tech team and also the security team would surely receive notifications as they were the ones controlling the company's surveillance system.

If the President's fiancée was really able to bypass their security system, then she must be quite a skilled hacker. The two looked at Jin Liwei, impressed that his fiancée had such abilities. They initially thought that his fiancée would be the usual daughter of a rich family whose only talent was to look pretty and fabulous.

Their guess was absolutely correct. Iris indeed hacked into Jin Corporation's surveillance system. Of course, she only started doing so after Jin Liwei gave her permission.

He told her that she could check up on him whenever she wanted because he had nothing to hide from her. It was also to assure her that she was his only woman and no females working in his company caught his attention. He didn't bother giving her direct access to the surveillance system because he knew that she had the ability to do it herself without raising any alarms.

While the members of the tech team instinctively knew that the President's fiancée was a hacker, the other employees, including Xu Tian and the three subordinates who delivered the food, all thought that Jin Liwei must've given her access to the surveillance system. The possibility that she might be a hacker never crossed their minds.

The robotic voice spoke again. "I have to go now, darling. I still have work as well. I called because I wanted to make sure that you eat your lunch and also because I want to hear your voice."

Jin Liwei's smile widened, momentarily dazing his employees, especially the females. "Alright. Take care, love. I'll see you tonight at home. I love you."

"Take care of yourself too, darling. Don't skip meals anymore. I love you, too," the robotic voice replied.

"En."

Everyone in the room felt extremely weird at the entire situation. It was actually quite scary listening and watching their President acting so lovey-dovey with a creepy robotic voice who was watching all of them through the security cameras.

Some of them even began to doubt whether their President's significant other was really a woman. They couldn't tell the gender from the robotic voice. It was possible that their President's lover was actually a man.

The robotic voice didn't immediately hang up the phone. "Mr. Xu Tian, don't let my fiancé skip meals. If he does, call me immediately, okay?"

Xu Tian only hesitated for a couple of seconds before bowing his head to the security camera. "Understood, Miss Lo—" He coughed loudly to cover up his near slip of the tongue. "Understood, Miss!"

"Thank you, Mr. Xu." A pause. "And the three women standing together at the end of the table…Yes, the three of you. Let's see…"

A few seconds later, the robotic voice started calling out the three women's names and positions in the company. Jin Liwei and the members of the tech team knew that she must've hacked further into the company system to dig out information about the three women.

"This is my first warning to the three of you," the robotic voice said, sounding cold and terrifying. "Watch the look in your eyes…they may get you into trouble. You understand what I'm saying, right?"

The three woman froze.

"RIGHT???"

"Y-yes! We're sorry! We won't do it again!"

The three women were frightened out of their wits by the scary robotic voice. From now on, they wouldn't look at the President's face and body (and imagine him naked) anymore. They would just look at his shoes. Yes! The shoes were definitely safer!

"Good. I don't give second warnings, just so you know. Alright. I really have to go. Bye, darling. Love you."

"En. Bye. Love you more," Jin Liwei replied.

"Oh, I almost forgot. Everyone, don't tell anyone about what happened today, okay? You're going to regret it if you do. I know everything about all of you. You don't want the whole world knowing your secrets, don't you? That's all. Bye~"

The call ended.

After witnessing such a bizarre situation, the mystery surrounding their President Jin Liwei's fiancée (or fiancé, if it was a man) just grew even more.
