His Genius Wife Is A Superstar

Chapter 489 - Is It Him?

Chapter 489 - Is It Him?

Many heads turned to the direction of the pair of new arrivals after hearing the emcee’s announcement. This was especially the case for the businessmen and the others who were related to the business industry one way or another. The name Liam Jin was a big name in the international business world. After all, he was the current President-CEO of China’s number one multinational company, Jin Corporation.

For many years, he was also known as one of the most eligible bachelors among the top business executives in the world. As a top executive, he was often invited to important high-class events like this. Whenever he attended any social events, he never brought or escorted any women except for his own mother or grandmother.

This was the first time that he came with a woman who wasn’t related to him by blood. As a result, his fellow executives from other top companies were curious about his companion’s identity. Who was she? It was reported that he was recently engaged to a mysterious fiancée that he hadn’t publicly introduced yet. Was she his fiancée?

The couple had only began walking the red carpet.

Guan Jintao, his wife, and the rest of the cast and crew of "Strong Yet Broken" heard Iris Long’s name in the announcement. Their eyes lit up. Finally, their group would soon be complete. Since they were farther along the red carpet, they couldn’t see her yet.

"It looks like Iris Long came with an escort. Maybe it’s her fiancé," the actress playing Guan Jintao’s mother commented.

"I think so, too," the actor playing the adult Guan Jintao replied. Then he tapped his chin, as a thoughtful expression appeared on his face. "Hmmm... Liam Jin sounds familiar...."

His cast mates and the crew members looked totally clueless. Guan Jintao also had a contemplative expression despite his closed eyes. It seemed that he also had an idea who this Liam Jin was.

The main actress said, "Really? This is the first time I’ve heard of that name. But that’s because I don’t know much about the business industry. Iris Long has repeatedly mentioned before that her fiancé is a businessman."

A couple of seconds after she said this, the main actor’s eyes widened. He gasped, finally realizing who Liam Jin was. The main clue was "businessman". The producer and the director also realized it at the same time as him. Their jaws fell down in shock. They turned to the President of LX Productions who wore a knowing expression on his face.

"Is it him?" the producer asked.

The President of LX Productions nodded.

"No way..." the director whispered in disbelief.

"Huh? You know this Liam Jin?" the main actress asked them.

"Oh shit. Yeah, I know him," the main actor replied. He looked as shocked as the producer and the director. "Actually, I think you know him, too. We all know him. Holy shit, Iris Long! Is this for real?"

"Really? I know him, too? How come I don’t remember?" the main actress asked, looking confused.

The other cast mates and crew members were also confused. They continued to ask the others who Liam Jin was, but they didn’t answer.

"Iris Long and Liam Jin have already arrived on the red carpet. We’ll meet with them shortly. Be patient," Guan Jintao told them. Based on his expression, it seemed that he had also already recognized Liam Jin based on his name.

With that, the group waited for couple to reach them.

Back to the first part of the red carpet, Iris and Jin Liwei walked together while holding hands. Just like how most of the cast and crew of"Strong Yet Broken"didn’t recognize him as Liam Jin, there weren’t a lot of people in China who knew his English name. They only knew him as Jin Liwei. On the other hand, he was more known abroad by his English name, Liam Jin.

Beside him, Iris was wearing an elegant peach long dress with intricate embroidered details on a sheer overlay. The sheer cloth showed off the smooth skin of her upper chest, while the embroidery covered her breasts and the rest of the dress. She also wore an asymmetrical cape made with the same sheer embroidered cloth as the dress’ overlay. It had a turtleneck collar, giving her a very sophisticated look. The light cape looked transparent, so her hourglass figure was still visible for everyone to see. From the back, it looked like the train of a wedding gown because of its relatively long length. It flowed behind her and billowed in the air whenever a breeze blew by.

Her hair was in a simple high bun. As for her makeup, it wasn’t very dramatic compared to what she usually wore whenever she performed onstage. The main star of her face was her phoenix eyes. They were emphasized by light, smoky eyeshadow and cat eyeliner. Her lips were painted a rose colour which complemented her peach dress well. Overall, her entire look suggested a lovely, blushing bride.

While one hand was holding Jin Liwei, her other hand carried a small designer clutch. The clutch looked simple. No complicated adornments at all, just a simple classic clutch. Instead, it was the diamond ring on her finger which caught the eyes of everyone. It sparkled under the bright lights and the nonstop flashes of the cameras.

Surprisingly, a few people among the spectators and even those on the red carpet recognized her. They were classical music enthusiasts.

"Oh, I know her! She’s Iris Long. I have her album ’Rebirth Melodies’!"

"I also have that album! I love it!"

"Wait, isn’t she the one who performed with Maestro De Luca at his concert in Germany last year?"

"OMG, I think you’re right! It’s her, Iris Long!"

"Uwah~ She looks so beautiful in person, like a princess."

"I know, right? And it looks like that handsome man is her boyfriend or husband. They look so great together."

There were only a few of them, so their voices were drowned by the other spectators. However, Iris still heard them talking about her with her great hearing. She looked at them and gave them a bright smile. Her smile felt like a shower of heart-shaped arrows shooting straight into their hearts. Male or female, they all fell for her stunning beauty. They started screaming and shrieking for her.

At that moment, even Jin Liwei heard them. Without changing his cold and indifferent expression, he looked at the people screaming for his baby girl in adoration. Then he lifted her hand and kissed it once again in front of them. It was as if he was telling them:

’You can all love her, but I’m the only who is allowed to kiss her like this.’

Finally, the couple reached the photography area. Iris and Jin Liwei posed together in front of the cameras. Almost all of the members of the media recognized Jin Liwei, especially after being introduced by the emcee as Liam Jin. He was, after all, one of the wealthiest men in the world.

As for Iris, it was mostly the European media who recognized her from her past performance with Maestro Ludovico De Luca at his German concert. Nevertheless, just by coming together to the red carpet event with the billionaire business executive Jin Liwei, Iris already caught the eyes of everyone.

Jin Liwei released his baby girl’s hand and wrapped his arm around her waist instead, pulling her close to his body. It was an undeniable show of possessiveness. Anyone looking at them right now would never mistake them for anything other than lovers.
