Chapter 605: My wife, my life

Under the peep star’s post were varying comments and opinions, some positive and others negative.

[What is wrong with that question, isn’t Chi Lian too sensitive?]

[I think she is so bold to be declaring that she would fire that reporter if she worked for phoenix tv. But doesn’t this mean all phoenix reporters are afraid of saying the wrong this about their boss?]

[Why would you ask someone that built her business from scratch if she is worthy? Do you know how hard it is to build a business?]

[The reporter is unprofessional and insensitive, this is not the right occasion to be asking her about the prosthetics. Very very unprofessional.]

[Anybody with brains can sense the malicious intent behind that first question, it’s a pit that is waiting for a fool to fall in.]

[Who cares about that, let’s talk about the good looks of that couple, I rate them 98 out of 100 altogether.]

In the Myrtle house, the old madam was smiling so sunnily like a proud peacock after Chi Lian’s response.

"I knew it, my baby is too smart to be tricked by an amateur reporter like that. Does she think a whole CEO of a media company is a fool?"

"It would have been better perhaps if Chi-Chi had said nothing," Muyang’s father said. "Tomorrow, competing news stations and medias will be out to crucify her. It’s the nature of business, any bullet that you can use to take down your enemy, you launch without hesitation."

The old madam and mama Chi were doubtful of his words and their looks said so.

"It’s true," the old master added on to what his son said, "They will attempt to make her look willful and uncaring about the danger of fancy robot prosthetics on young impressionable youth. I think she should only sell the technology for the first kind of prosthetic, the basic one which allows the physically disabled due to missing limbs in our society to live like everyone else. The third type is a cosmetic add on, one of the men that recently had a prosthetic arm like that fitted is trending for looking cool, part human, part robot. He is calling himself the next generation human in the news, and he is already trending online here and abroad."

"Too many people will want to eat from that pond, it’s a very huge money making venture but a dangerous one." Chairman Jun concurred with his father.

"I agree," He Weili surprised everyone by saying this. "Anything trendy is bound to be copied and imitated, like clothes or shoes. The young man who deliberately injured himself to get the robot like type of fancy prosthetic might not be the last we see. At work today, I overheard a discussion between some female agents. One of them said that the young man is part of some steam punk society and for them this kind of prosthetic is a dream come true. They can now have genuine robot like arms, legs. Apparently people are even asking around to find out if they can have robot eyes or contact lenses with robot features. It might not be a bad idea for Chi-Chi to put a halt to it until proper regulations for their management are put in place."

Papa Chi nodded, agreeing with what He Weili had said. If another person went crazy and sawed off their leg or arm in an attempt to get a cool robot like prosthetic, Chi-Chi would be condemned heavily.

While the discussion at home continued, the distribution of awards started. The guests had finished their dinner and the second half of the event kicked off with a performance from singer Cho Na-Na of glory entertainment.

Muyang’s attention was on his wife and not the singer.

"Honey," he called her and showed her his phone, "Look, the peep star shared a video of us together, even though it’s about the maliciousness or innocence behind the intentions of of the reporter but it’s still about us. I told you, the peep star likes me."

She huddled her head closer to his and laughed, "I think the video is about me but okay, whatever you say."

"Well, we do come as a package you and I." he nodded thoughtfully. "Look, the kids are already sleeping." he had gone from showing her the peep star’s page to footage of their children sleeping like little angels in the bedroom.

"Aww, look at them." she smiled, with a dotting look in her eyes. "Is Rose home?"

"Curfew is eight thirty, she better be." Muyang mumbled. His mind crossed over for a moment to the couple he saw at the university. "We should check, my grandmother is at home and she gives Rose too much freedom."

"Please don’t tell me you put a tracker in her phone." she whispered.

"Of course I did," he replied. The girl was the daughter of a princess and she called them aunt and uncle. Muyang took his responsibilities about raising her very seriously.

Cho Na-Na’s performance ended and the award attendees applauded, including the couple that barely paid attention during the performance.

A middle aged host, dressed in a black and white suit came to the center of the stage and said with a smile, "Thank you all for taking time out of your busy schedules and coming out tonight for the annual chamber of commerce awards."

A round of applause followed his words, many attendees smiled eagerly, desiring to be seen as happy to be there by the viewers who were watching from home.

A few more flowery words of flattery came out of the host’s mouth as he praised and welcomed different attendees, even giving special shout outs.

Finally, he said, "We will begin with the night by presenting the best new business personality award of the year. Presenting this award, is CEO Jun Muyang of Jun investments."

The cameras had already switched to Chi Lian when he mentioned the new business award. Everyone was already aware that she had won the award. What they were not aware of, was that her husband would be the one to present the award to her.

Even Chi Lian was taken aback, and the look of surprise on her face was captured by the cameras.

"Looks like our winner is just as surprised as we all are." the host said and he laughed. This award was usually presented by a political figure or another influential business person. Technically, Muyang qualified in the second aspect, he was an influential business person.

Chi Lian was smiling broadly as Muyang stood up, kissed her on the cheek and went up to the stage. Her eyes followed him all the way to the stage. She watched him take the podium and speak.

"Thank you for giving me the honor of presenting this award to one of the most amazing and hardworking women I know. When she started phoenix media it was a minor web tv, it was in another city and in an old building. All she had was a big dream, much competition and a meager number of employees. Today, the offices of phoenix media with there bright magnificent logo can be seen from many miles away in the capital. Her magazine is one of the most read, phoenix television is one of the most viewed, she is one of the most respected women and she has cemented her place among the most influential business women of the empire. I am very proud to be presenting this award to the most deserving and worthy candidate, my wife and my life, and your best new business personality of the year, Chi Lian."
