Chapter 1118 - Chemistry
Even though the video message was only a recording, Jin Chonglin still made a gesture over his heart and directed it to Iris Long on the screen to show how touched he felt over her words of gratitude.
She continued, "Aside from creating a new company from scratch, this project headlined by Brother Chonglin is the biggest that we at Orchidia Beauty have undertaken and completed so far. My team and of course Brother Chonglin have all worked so hard to make this men’s line happen and complete it before the year ends. We want to give this amazing and exclusive men’s line of skincare products as a kind of holiday present to all of Brother Chonglin’s countless fans. I know that all of you are so excited about your Prince Lin Lin’s new product line.
"On behalf of Orchidia Beauty, thank you very much for attending and watching our special launch event tonight for the one and only Jin Chonglin. I guarantee the quality of our products. Brother Chonglin can also attest to their effectiveness because he has been using them. Doesn’t he look even more handsome now?"
The audience responded with a loud, "YES!!!"
Iris laughed as if she heard them. "Indeed, he looks more handsome now, all thanks to Orchidia Beauty."
"Shameless!" Jin Chonglin’s army of fans shouted while laughing.
"What ’all thanks to Orchidia Beauty’ that you’re talking about? Prince Lin Lin is already very handsome to begin with! Your company’s products only enhanced his already natural good looks."
"Hahaha! Lil Sis Iris sure knows how to use her brother-in-law to endorse her own company. Marrying an elite businessman is making her more shameless—I mean savvy."
They weren’t really offended by what she said. Ever since she married their Prince Lin Lin’s older brother, CEO Jin Liwei, this army of fans started treating Iris Long as a little sister that they must take care of like a family member.
"But of course, my husband is still the most handsome," Iris added before showing a shy smile, her cheeks turning pink.
Seeing her this shy was very rare because she was known as a very confident go-getter. The Black Stars released a collective "aaaw". Their Boss Iris was too adorable! This cute side of hers in addition to her current weak, fragile and thinner appearance were a deadly combination. She became even more precious to them and must be protected at all costs.
Riding on Iris Long’s lovey-dovey joke about her husband on the expense of her brother-in-law, Jin Chonglin made an exaggerated sad face while giving her image on the screen two thumbs down. The laughter became even louder with his antics.
Iris finished her short closing remarks and then her video message finally ended. The audience gave her an enthusiastic applause even though she wasn’t present in person. They figured that she must be watching the livestream right now.
Afterwards, the emcee took back the flow of rhythm on stage once again. Dom, Long Jinjing and Alric Bauer finally stepped off the stage leaving Chen Fei and Jin Chonglin with the emcee.
Chen Fei was the person-in-charge of the project so it was already agreed upon beforehand that she would be the one answering the emcee’s questions with Jin Chonglin about the development of all the products in the men’s line. She was also a better choice than the overly shy Long Jinjing. In fact, Chen Fei basked in the attention and felt extremely proud of her leadership in this project.
Something about how Jin Chonglin and Chen Fei interacted with each other made the superstar’s army of fans pause to take a closer look.
"Who is this woman? Why is there so much chemistry between her and our Prince Lin Lin? What is going on between the two of them?!"
"Oh no! Oh no!! Oh no no no no no!!!"
"Danger!"
There was no obvious flirtation between the two. In fact, Jin Chonglin and Chen Fei were acting like the other annoyed them but was forced by the occasion to be nice to each other. Nevertheless, there was indeed an unmistakable chemistry between the two of them.
"Why do I feel like I’m watching an enemies turned into lovers kind of movie drama?"
"Nooooo! Don’t put such a corny image in my head!"
"To be fair, this COO Chen Fei might not be the prettiest—even Lil Sis Iris’ older sister, CFO Long Jinjing, is prettier—but she has that successful, confident elite careerwoman vibe to her. This is the type of woman that doesn’t take shit from anybody. If she really got together with our Prince Lin Lin, then all I have to say is—good luck, Prince Lin Lin!"
"No way! She’s not a match for my hubby Lin Lin!"
"Who’s your hubby? Fight me! He’s our Prince Lin Lin, not anyone’s hubby!"
"Ever since that evil Fan Luo hoodwinked not only Prince Lin Lin but also us—we even called her Princess Luo Luo, blergh, so disgusting—we have to be more careful in accepting our prince’s next potential romantic partner. What if he gets deceived again?"
Jin Chonglin and Chen Fei had no idea that people were talking about the two of them and how they were interacting with each other. If they heard that people thought the two of them had chemistry together, they would surely be the first ones to reject such a ridiculous possibility.
The event continued as planned. A documentary-style video was played, showing a glimpse of the complicated process of creating Jin Chonglin’s men’s line from the early conceptualization, to the actual developing and manufacturing of the products, and finally to the last stages before tonight’s launch. The video also featured the male models and volunteers who tried the products, highlighting the state of their skin before using the products from Jin Chonglin’s line. Most of the volunteers were regular people and had common skin problems like dryness, oiliness, and acne.
After the video ended, the emcee announced, "Please welcome all the models and volunteers!"
When they walked up the stage one by one, gasps could be heard from the audience because there was no trace of acne or the other skin problems on these men’s faces at all. They had only smooth and clear skin as if someone photoshopped all the imperfections away that were shown on the video.
