Dragon Palace Home #10.

As soon as the helicopter landed, Jin Liwei jumped out of the aircraft and ran straight to the mansion while carrying the long, rectangular leather case over his shoulder. He was a man on a mission. The longer he delayed, the higher the possibility that he would have to sleep in the proverbial doghouse tonight. No way was he going to allow that to happen. He was going to do everything to be able to sleep with his wife in the same bed tonight like always.

Fortunately, he was able to appease his AI daughter. Ketchup was easier to coax than her mother and AI brother. Even though Ketchup already attempted many times to help him connect a call to his wife and AI son, it was no use. Iris and Bacon refused to speak to him. This just showed how upset the mother and son felt towards his error earlier.

Three hours later….

Jin Liwei inwardly released a big sigh of relief when his wife and AI son finally forgave him. Now he knew why his wife was so upset. It was because Bacon gave her lovely presents as well, making her extra-emotional. She now treated the card that Bacon wrote for her like a precious treasure, keeping it close to her in her bedside table's drawer so that she could read it whenever she wanted.

Therefore, when she heard that he told Xu Tian to throw their AI son's present for him, she became furious, thinking that he didn't know how to appreciate Bacon's sincerity.

He kissed his wife's lips and carefully hugged her. His chest felt constricted seeing her looking so exhausted at being mad at him for more than three hours. "I won't do it again."

Iris sighed and nodded before resting her tired self on him.

"Bacon." He glanced at the tablet propped on the bed beside them. "Dad didn't mean it."

"Bacon now knows."

"As promised, I'll increase your monthly allowance for six months as compensation."

The black cat AI's fluffly, black tail started rotating into a blur. "Bacon thanks Father."

"Dad also wants to thank you for your present."

"Does Father like it?"

"En."

Bacon's tail rotated even faster and his golden eyes glowed brighter.

Iris looked up at him. "What did Bacon give you?"

"You don't know?" Jin Liwei asked.

She shook her head. "He didn't tell me."

"I'll show you." He carefully disentangled himself from their embrace, kissed her forehead, and left the bedroom.

He was back moments later carrying a long, black leather case. Iris watched, her eyes shining with curiosity, as he placed the case on the nearby coffee table.

"Oh, our son wrote you a card, too?"

"En." Without waiting for her to ask him about the card's contents, he read it to her out loud.

His wife's eyes filled up with tears after he finished reading.

"Bacon loves you," she said.

"En. He loves you, too. He loves us, his parents." He smiled and then glanced at the tablet screen.

Their tsundere AI son turned his fluffy, black face to the side, refusing to look at them. His traitor of a tail, however, revealed his true feelings. It was swishing from side to side in an alternating vigorous and hesitant manner, indicating his elation and shyness at the same time.

The husband and wife chuckled at their AI son while their bubbly AI daughter giggled, not minding her little kitty brother's fierce glare at all.

Following his wife's example, Jin Liwei kept the card written by their AI son for him in his bedside table's drawer. Then he returned to the long, black leather case and opened it.

When he lifted the katana with both hands in front of him, he heard his wife gasp.

"Bacon, you gave your dad a weapon?!"

"Yes, Mother. Bacon knows that Father doesn't want Mother to experience being put in danger ever again, so I gave him a weapon so that he can protect you better. The katana is top quality, forged by a master swordsmith. Father can use it to easily dismember enemies and behead them. Bacon believes that Father will train how to use the katana properly so that he can cut through the enemies in one strike like a true samurai. Isn't it classy?"

"En. It is classy."

Iris couldn't reply for a few seconds. She looked at her AI son, then at her husband who looked like he was indeed going to find a master to train him on how to properly use the katana.

"A katana? In this day and age?" She sighed. "A gun or a small dagger is more convenient than a long, conspicuous sword like that."

"But Mother, a katana looks classier."

"En."

She stared at her husband in disbelief. He chuckled and slid back the katana into the saya before storing it inside the leather case. Then he returned to the bed to cuddle with his wife again.

"I already have a gun and a small dagger. Besides, this is a present from our son."

"I know," she replied, sighing, before admitting, "The craftsmanship of the sword looks exquisite."

"En, it is."

"Of course, Mother and Father. Bacon knows how valuable it is from how Uncle Zihao stored and locked it in the deepest part of Shadow Winds' armoury. It is one of the weapons that Bacon has been eyeing for a long time. Now that I have an opportunity to gift Father, I immediately claimed the katana and had someone paint a golden dragon with the character of our family name 'Jin' on the saya. It's classier that way."

Iris gaped at her AI son. "You just took it from your uncle's armoury? Bacon!"

The black cat AI's tail stopped swishing. Bacon shrank his neck closer to his body. "Bacon paid for it with my own money…."

"But still!"

Jin Liwei patted his agitated wife's back and told their AI children, "Bacon, Ketchup, leave your mom and I for a bit."

"Okie dokie, Daddy! Please don't be mad, Mommy! See ya later, alligator! Meowhoosh!!!" Ketchup disappeared like a ninja.

Bacon looked at his parents but didn't say anything before disappearing as well.

"Evelina, it's fine."

"What do you mean it's fine?! My brother is still comatose! Even if Bacon is his nephew, it's not right for our son to take something from his uncle without permission!"
