Chapter 1213 - Dedicated To The Black Stars
The camera zoomed in on Jin Liwei’s face as he was speaking and everyone saw the red marks on his neck.
"What did I just see?!! Are those hickeys?!!!"
"My gosh! Boss Iris is so wild to put those many hickeys on CEO Jin’s neck! I bet that there are more on other parts of his body."
"Boss Iris is wild but CEO Jin is wilder! He didn’t even make an effort to cover them up. Is he showing off? Is he?! He is, right?! I bet he is!"
Behind the cameras, Tang Yiyi almost tore off all her hair in anxiety from reading the comments. She immediately contacted LXC Studio’s PR Department.
Xu Tian, who was standing nearby, heard her instructions. He told her not to panic and that everything was within CEO Jin’s plans.
Although Tang Yiyi trusted Jin Liwei’s capabilities, she still couldn’t relax without taking any productive actions herself. She directed LXC Studio’s PR Department to coordinate with Jin Liwei’s own PR team, only to discover that this was already Jin Liwei’s original plan to begin with. Indeed, Xu Tian was right. Everything was within CEO Jin’s plans. She could only sigh in admiration. This kind of capable man was the husband of her artist, Iris Long.
Back to the livestream, Jin Liwei was pleased and even smug upon reading some of the comments that noticed the hickeys his wife left on his neck. For a moment, he was tempted to lift up his shirt to show off the other hickeys on his body but restrained himself. His wife could be as possessive of him as he was of her.
Iris didn’t speak much. Her role was the guest of honour since the entire special contest was dedicated to her. Jin Liwei was the official host of the event. [Read official chapters on W e b n o v e l (dot) com. Please stop supporting piracy. Also follow author on Instagram: @arriacross]
The camera moved from the couple on the loveseat to the smiling Dominic Chua who waved at all the viewers. He volunteered to serve as the emcee because he enjoyed the role.
"Hello! My name is Dominic Chua, Boss Iris’ bestest friend forevah and evah, assistant extraordinaire, and fabulous beauty king!"
All the Chinese Black Stars knew him.
"Dom, the Beauty King! Fabulous as always!"
"Brother Dom, where did you buy your high-heeled boots? I want them!"
As for the Singaporean Black Stars, this was the first time for most of them to learn about his identity as Iris Long’s assistant and best friend.
"What a stylish assistant! I didn’t expect that Boss Iris will have a male best friend."
The Filipino Black Stars had the biggest reactions. Their comments flooded the screen in a fast pace.
"My fellowman! Proud to be Filipino!"
"Cousin Dom! Hurry up and announce the winners!"
"Seeing a fellow Filipino doing well in another country makes me feel so proud."
Dom was in his element. As a chatterbox, he never ran out of things to say. Even without reading the script on the teleprompter, he was still able to make many entertaining adlibs that made everyone laugh.
"The fabulous moi will be representing Boss Iris’ super-duper handsome husband, CEO Jin Liwei, current head of the biggest multinational company in China, Jin Corporation, in announcing the talented winners and giving out the amazing prizes in his special contest in honour of his wife, our one and only Boss Iris Long! We have received a total of 1,001,296 entries from three different countries: China, Singapore, and the Philippines!"
Big applause.
"I know, right? More than a million entries? Isn’t that amazing or what?! Wohoo!"
Dom smiled and continued, "There are so many prizes that it will take an entire week of nonstop livestreaming if we announce the winners one by one, especially since Sir Boss Jin kept on adding more prizes when we established the first two international offshoots of the Black Stars in Singapore and my motherland, the Philippines. That’s why we’re only going to announce the most notable finalists and winners today. The rest will receive a call from us. Just take a look at the number of prizes. They literally formed three freaking mountains!"
He swept his manicured hands in the air. The camera panned over the prizes stacked together. Seeing all the items made the viewers incredibly excited.
Then Clover Chua wheeled a cart carrying one of the latest high-performance computer gaming set. She used her hands and expression that were as expressive as her brother’s to showcase the first prize to be given away.
"There will be a total of 30 of this same computer gaming set that will be given away right now!" Dom announced. "We will be showing five of the best entries who’ll win this computer gaming set in this livestream. As for the other winning entries, please check them on the contest’s official website. Enjoy!"
Everyone watched the five entries. This was also the first time that Iris was watching any of the entries. Jin Liwei wanted everything to be a surprise.
"I chose those five myself after Ketchup, Bacon, and the other virtual assistants helped in screening all the entries," Jin Liwei told his wife.
"I love them, darling," she said, continuing to watch.
There was a makeup artist who painted his face to look almost exactly like Iris. It was amazing to watch a masculine-looking man transform into a stunning female.
A comedy parody of her music video with Jin Chonglin for the song "Passionate Flames".
A beautiful and emotional moving sand-art of the film version of "Phantom of Your Love" for the award-winning movie "Strong Yet Broken".
An adorable band of children aged between 6 and 10 impersonating Iris and the Pandemonium band members while singing "Monster of Insanity".
A college choir singing an impressive acoustic rendition of "Rebirth."
As more prizes were announced including cash and brand new cars, more entries were shown. Iris cried on a good number of them. Jin Liwei comforted her with a loving embrace. She also laughed at most of them, delighted at the amazing creativity of the Black Stars who created memorable tributes for her.
When the livestream was about to end, Iris suddenly said, "To express my gratitude to all of you, I want to sing a special song. This time, it’s dedicated to all of you, my beloved loyal fans, the Black Stars."
