Chapter 1136 - Won Over By Feline Cuteness

"W-who"s speaking?!" Long Jinjing clutched Lu Zihao"s neck, squeezing him in a panic. She looked around, trying to figure out where the children"s voices were coming from.

If Lu Zihao was a regular person, he would"ve already started choking from how tightly Long Jinjing was squeezing his neck. Fortunately, his body was tough that this much force from his delicate woman didn"t affect him at all.

"Tsk." He wanted to ignore his cat AI niece and nephew for disrupting the nice atmosphere he had going on with his woman but knew that the two naughty AI kittens wouldn"t leave him alone if he didn"t give them a good reason. He really wished to have the ability to spank the two naughty brats.

Sighing, he stood up while still carrying Long Jinjing and headed to his desk. Then he turned one of his computer monitors so that it was facing outwards the desk to them.

Long Jinjing"s eyes widened, immediately recognizing the white and black cats on the screen. "Ketchup! Bacon!"

"Yay yay! Auntie Jinjing recognizes us kitty babies! Meowowow!" Ketchup began jumping around from joy and excitement.

"Bacon greets Aunt Jinjing." The black cat AI swished his tail from side to side while looking at his aunt with his golden eyes.

Long Jinjing gasped and her jaw fell open. "Y-you…." She looked at Lu Zihao. "T-they…how…?"

Lu Zihao sighed again before throwing a fierce glare at the two naughty cat siblings. "Do your parents know that the two of you are revealing yourselves to your Aunt Jinjing?"

"Aye aye, Uncle Haohao! Mommy says that it"s now okay to finally introduce ourselves to our Auntie Jinjing because she has Uncle Haohao who"ll surely protect her! Right, Bacon? Meow~"

Bacon nodded his fluffy, black head. "Mother and Father trust in Uncle Zihao"s ability to protect Aunt Jinjing and in making sure that she"s not endangered because of her knowledge about Bacon and Big Sister Ketchup. Bacon hopes that Uncle Zihao will do the cla.s.sy thing and not betray our parents" trust in you."

Lu Zihao"s expression improved upon hearing that his sister and brother-in-law trusted him and in his ability to protect his own woman. He glanced at the bewildered Long Jinjing who he was still carrying in his arms. She looked like someone whose entire belief system was turned upside-down, even more so than when she discovered that he had killed people before.

"Y-you…can talk?" she asked.

Ketchup tilted her fluffy, white head to the side, looking so much like Iris.

Bacon looked unimpressed by his aunt"s words. "Please don"t ask such a stupid question, Aunt Jinjing. Aren"t you already listening to us speak?"

"Bacon!" Lu Zihao glared at him. "Watch your tone when speaking to your aunt. Speak like that again to her and I"ll cancel your salary for next year as payment for the katana you took from my armoury without my permission!"

The black cat AI shrank his neck towards his fluffy body, making himself look smaller. "Bacon is sorry. Aunt Jinjing, please tell Uncle Zihao not to be angry anymore about the katana. Bacon already knows that I"m wrong. It hurts Bacon"s feelings to be scolded like this all the time. Bacon won"t ask for compensation for emotional distress this time because I"m in the wrong but please don"t continue hurting my feelings when I already regret what I did."

Although Long Jinjing was still shocked to the core and extremely confused about what in the world was going on, her heart couldn"t help but soften upon seeing the black cat blinking his wide, golden eyes at her. S-so cute! The white cat was also adorable! Both of them were so cute!

"Nikolai, don"t be mad at Bacon anymore," she said, unable to stop herself from defending such a cute kitty.

Lu Zihao sneered at his two-faced AI nephew.

"Nikolai!" Long Jinjing also gave her version of puppy eyes, pleading for her cat AI nephew who had obviously won her over by his feline cuteness.

"Tsk. Fine."

"Bacon thanks Aunt Jinjing." The black cat AI swished his tail from side to side in a more vigorous manner.

"Meowowow! You"re amazing, Auntie Jinjing! Uncle Haohao is being super-duper nice to us kitty babies because of you. Yay yay! Please continue being lovey-dovey with Uncle Haohao so that he"ll always be nice to us kitty babies and not be a grumpy sc.u.mbag! Hihihi. Meow~"

"Who are you calling a grumpy sc.u.mbag, you little—"

Long Jinjing touched his face and patted him gently, calming him down. Then she indicated that she wanted to be put down. He did.

She leaned closer to the computer monitor and studied the two cats. The confusion was still there but her eyes were now s.h.i.+ning with awe. "How can you two talk?"

Before either Ketchup or Bacon could explain, Lu Zihao answered her instead. "They"re AIs that my sister created. As you can see, they"re highly advanced and on a completely different level from any of the AIs available in the world right now. That"s why we"ve all kept Ketchup and Bacon"s existences a secret to protect them from evil, greedy people who might want to steal them away. Just knowing about them is also very dangerous."

Long Jinjing"s eyes widened but she nodded in understanding. Her amazement, however, only increased after hearing his explanation. "Little Sister Xiulan created Ketchup and Bacon?"

"That"s right, catfight! Mommy is the bestest mommy in the whole wide universe! We are also the bestest kitty babies in the whole wide universe because of our super-duper to the highest level amazing mommy! Right, Bacon? Meow~"

"That"s a given," Bacon said in a bored tone. His tail, however, was a dead giveaway to his true feelings. "Without Mother, Bacon and Big Sister Ketchup would never have been born into this world."

"Wow," Long Jinjing breathed. "I already knew that Little Sister Xiulan is a genius because she"s a Cross Academy student but I didn"t know that she was a genius to this extent."

"Mother is the cla.s.siest genius to ever walk in the history of this planet." Bacon"s tail began rotating in a blur while he puffed out his chest, feeling proud of his own mom.

"Mama"s boy," Lu Zihao muttered in a tone tinged with disgust.

Bacon didn"t deny it. In fact, his tail rotated even faster.

"So cute!" Long Jinjing gushed.
