His Genius Wife is a Superstar

The Black Stars immediately checked the list of rules and prizes at the end of the post. Indeed, the rules were simple just like what CEO Jin said in the video. The contest's duration was two weeks. Then when they read the list of prizes, exclamations of shock and amazement flooded the comments section. 

"Boss Iris' husband is indeed a bigshot! One thousand people will win 10,000 RMB each. More people will win 5,000 RMB. The lowest cash prize is 1,000 RMB. There are even all-inclusive vacation vouchers, brand new cars, computers, smartphones, appliances, shopping gift cards, and so many more!"

"I estimate that all these prizes are worth around 100 million RMB. Wow! CEO Jin really knows how to splurge and he's doing it for his wife, Boss Iris, and us, her fans! Thank you, CEO Jin! Best husband ever!"

"Based on the photos featured in À la Mode magazine, their wedding isn't too extravagant compared to other high-profile celebrity marriages with rich people. Seems like they chose to share their blessings to others instead of making their wedding flashy. Love this couple! The best!"

"I want to win the 10,000 cash prize!"

"I want the all-inclusive vacation!"

"Bye! I'm going to prepare my entry now!"

Jin Liwei was on his way to work. His wife was still sleeping when he left home this morning. He was on the backseat of the car reading and replying to his work e-mails on his laptop. 

"Daddy, the video you and my mommy made during your honeymoon that Uncle Dom uploaded last night went viral! Everyone is excited to join and win the prizes. Wow wow! The contest is even being featured in the news! Meow!"

"Good." He looked satisfied.

It was inevitable that such a contest with extremely generous prizes would be leaked to the media. Ketchup informed him that there was a surge of new sign-ups to become official Black Stars. Those people were probably tempted with the prizes. The rules were pretty lax. Anyone could basically join. 

Jin Liwei didn't care much whether the participants were his wife's real fans or not because, in the end, they would all still need to praise his wife to the high heavens if they wanted to impress him and choose them as winners. If they were haters, then all the better. How much torture would those haters undergo to praise someone that they hated? He was looking forward to the contest submissions.

Ketchup continued chattering about related headlines. Jin Liwei was half-focused on her gossip while continuing to go through his work e-mails. This was the on-the-way-to-work morning routine of the father and AI daughter. He didn't tell her to stop because she would sometimes share some interesting news.

This time, she shared about news talking about her Uncle Chonglin's upcoming men's line of products for Orchidia Beauty. Next was several speculations about his future plans, whether he would extend his contract with Bright Summit Entertainment Company or not. Then Ketchup hissed all of a sudden.

"The cute and mighty again Ketchup is angry! MREOW!!!"

"What's the matter?" 

"Look at the tabloids, Daddy! Meow!"

Ketchup automatically took control of his laptop and showed him the latest tabloid news. His expression immediately turned grim as he read the over-sensationalized headlines.

"Jealous Iris Long Forces New Husband CEO Jin Liwei to Fire Ivy-League Graduate Female CMO"

"Jin Corporation's Security Manhandles a Defenceless Female CMO Before Throwing Her Out of the Company"

"All Females Working at Jin Corporation, Beware of Your CEO's Jealous New Wife"

He already expected that Rose Young and her supporters would do something like this, so he wasn't surprised. However, it didn't lessen his fury especially since they dragged his wife's name into the mix.

"Daddy, Tiantian is calling. Meow~"

"Answer."

The call connected and his assistant, Xu Tian, immediately informed him that some members of the board of directors were demanding for an emergency meeting to appeal Jin Liwei's decision to fire Rose Young.

"Fine. Schedule the meeting for this afternoon."

"Understood, President."

"Cooperate with Ketchup in suppressing the tabloid news. I want them gone by today. Also make trouble for those tabloid companies. If you can shut them down, then much better."

"Will do, President."

"Aye aye, Daddy! The cute and mighty Ketchup will definitely help Tiantian because I'm a good kitty baby who listens to my daddy! Meow~"

Then Jin Liwei called someone else. "Bacon."

"Bacon is here, Father."

"Find out all the specific people who are helping Rose Young right now aside from the Young family."

"Understood, Father."

He paused before adding, "Also ask for your Uncle Zihao's help in dealing with those people."

"Does this mean that Father won't care what happens to those people even if they are surnamed Jin?"

Jin Liwei's eyes flashed with viciousness. "Anyone cooperating with the Young family to steal my company are traitors. Tell your Uncle Zihao that he's free to decide what to do with those people. They also dragged your mother's name which is unforgivable."

"Indeed, Bacon is ashamed to share the same surname as those people. Involving Mother is not classy either." The black cat AI's golden eyes also flashed with the same viciousness as his father—no, Bacon's eyes looked more vicious. "Bacon will never forgive them for smearing Mother's name for a woman far below her level."

Seeing her father and brother, Ketchup also squinted her green eyes and mimicked their expressions. However, she looked far from vicious, becoming more adorable instead.

"Ketchup will also punish them with my cute and mighty paws of justice! Mreow!"

Bacon returned to Shadow Winds to follow his father's instructions.

"Xu Tian, after you finalize the time for the emergency board of directors meeting today, send it to Grandfather Lu later because I might be too busy to call him myself."

"Understood, President. Leave it to me. By the way, sir, your schedule is very full today. Are you still planning to attend the—"

Jin Liwei knew what his assistant was about to say. "Yes. I'll attend it after lunch and return in time for the meeting with the board of directors in the afternoon."

"…Understood, sir."

After talking to them, Jin Liwei leaned back and closed his eyes. He wasn't resting, however, but was organizing several plans in his head. It seemed that he would need to talk to his brother-in-law Nikolai soon.
