Chapter 1010 Document of Doom
Jenny Tseng and Luke returned to the apartment carrying takeout dishes.
"Where's Big Sister Rose?" Luke asked Jin Jiali who was playing with her phone in the living room.
Jin Jiali gestured towards the bathroom. She heard the creepy laughter coming from there earlier and it freaked her out.
The bathroom door finally opened and Rose Young came out. "Oh, you two are here. Perfect timing. I'm hungry. Let's eat."
Later, the group was finishing up their dinner in the living room. Luke and Jin Jiali were both behaving in a very cautious manner around Rose.
Jenny dabbed her lips with a paper serviette before facing her best friend. "So Rosie, about your plan…."
"What about it?" Rose didn't look at her, continuing to finish her food.
"I still think it's a stupid plan."
Luke and Jin Jiali stiffened, not daring to breathe too loudly, afraid of triggering another meltdown from Rose Young or another fight between the two best friends.
Surprisingly, Rose remained calm and didn't react in a negative manner. "I agree that it's a…risky plan. That's why we need to work on polishing it to increase its probability of success."
Jenny sighed. "So you're still not giving up, huh? Oh well, whatever. I already said that I'll help you so I will."
"If we need more people, I can ask our other cousins," Luke said. "I'm sure that they'll all be willing to help you, Big Sister Rose."
Rose nodded.
"Should I ask my dad for help?" Jin Jiali asked. "Although my dad got fired from his position at Jin Corporation's board of directors, he still retained some of his old connections…."
"No! Don't do that, Jia'er. Uncle Chenggong already has a lot on his plate ever since your family got kicked out of the Jin clan."
The teenager pouted and sulked at the reminder that her family no longer belonged to the powerful Jin clan.
"Don't worry, Jia'er. My dad, your Uncle Romeo, and your dad, Uncle Chenggong, are working on cooperating with each other. Things will get better for all of us. You'll see."
"Really?"
Rose nodded and smiled in a comforting way. Her eyes, however, were a little cold.
Jin Jiali didn't notice. "Okay, Big Sis. I won't tell my dad."
"Rosie, just be honest to the girl," Jenny interrupted. "Tell her that the real reason why you don't want her to ask her daddy for help is because you don't want Mr. Jin Chenggong to inform Uncle Romeo about this stupid plan of yours. Am I right or am I exactly right? Ahahaha!"
"Jenny, I don't want to argue with you about this anymore," Rose said in a warning tone.
Jenny rolled her eyes before sighing. "Fine, whatever. Anyway, when are we commencing this so-called plan?"
"This Friday."
"What the botox?! Rosie, have you finally gone cray cray?!"
Both Luke and Jin Jiali looked surprised and worried as well.
"This Friday?! That's not enough time to make any proper preparations to ensure that your ridiculous plan will work!"
Rose looked at all of them with fierce eyes filled with determination. "We'll have to make it work even if it means that we'll have to forego sleep. This Friday is the best opportunity to execute our plan because Jin Liwei will be treating the other executives for dinner. As long as he's not in his home or at Jin Corporation where the security is the tightest, we can definitely find an opening and entrap him."
Jenny pressed the back of her hand on her forehead and groaned. "Oh, god of silicone implants, please guide us in this craziness!"

Dragon Palace Home #10.
Jin Liwei reviewed the document that he just completed on his computer with a grave expression. Satisfied at the result, he called for his AI son.
"Bacon, send this file to your Uncle Zihao. Tell him that if he needs more information, he can call me directly."
"Understood, Father." Bacon's golden eyes dimmed as he ran the errand. A couple of minutes later, the black cat AI's eyes glowed again. "Bacon is back, Father. Uncle Zihao looked satisfied by the information you provided him."
"Good." Jin Liwei leaned back on his chair and began massaging his temples.
What he just gave his brother-in-law was additional in-depth information about the traitors in the Jin branch families that Bacon listed in their family's virtual black notebook. He had to call and consult Grandma Li and his mother, Huang Yuyan, for some of them. Fortunately, both his grandmother and mother didn't ask too many questions about his sudden interest in those relatives. The two of them had complete confidence in his leadership and trusted his judgment as the head of the Jins.
He hoped that the document would make it easier for his brother-in-law and Shadow Winds to mete out whatever punishment they planned for those traitors. It was, in simple terms, a document of doom.
Sighing, he rose from his seat and walked towards the large windows of his home office to stare at the night sky outside and rest his tired eyes. He had been extremely busy ever since he returned to work after his honeymoon especially after everything that happened with Rose Young and the media mess her firing caused.
Still, he made sure to come home in time for dinner and spend enough quality time with his pregnant wife. This meant, however, that he needed to find some time whenever possible to complete extra work at home.
"Daddy, Mommy just finished her online lesson with Professor Hisakawa," Ketchup informed him, interrupting his silent musing by the window. "Mommy will come downstairs in a bit. Meow~"
"En." His exhaustion eased a bit at the mention of his wife. "Ketchup, go watch over your brother and make sure that he doesn't cause any trouble. He's still grounded."
"Aye aye, Daddy! Don't worry, macaroni! The cute and mighty Ketchup won't let my naughty little kitty brother steal anything from Mommy ever again! Meow!"
"Father, Bacon won't do it again because it's not classy."
Jin Liwei gave his AI son a stern look. "Good that you know. Don't ever upset your mom like that again."
"Yes, Father. Bacon knows."
"Darling, that incident is over," a melodious voice said from the top of the staircase. "Don't scold Bacon about that matter anymore. He already apologized to both of us."
