535 The Arrival

The sky had now turned completely dark. There were no visible stars. Only the dim crescent moon lit up the sky above.

It was cold and dark in the outskirts of the city. However, the area surrounding the convention centre was warm and bright. The crowd only kept growing and became more excited. They sweated, not feeling the chill in the air at all.

Moments later, someone arrived with much pomp and circumstance. A team of ten bodyguards alerted the people that a VVIP was about to appear. The event's staff also stood by, ready to greet the new arrival.

Then Wei Lan stepped out of the vehicle in a beautiful, sparkling, gold long dress. It was high-collared and sleeveless. She also wore a pair of white satin gloves that reached to her elbows. Her outfit made her look conservative compared to the kind of revealing dresses she typically wore before.

"It's Vizcondesa Lan!" someone shouted.

All attention fell on her.

She was almost unrecognizable by how elegant and classy she now looked. Seeing her like this, the people thought that she looked very much like a proper lady of nobility.

"Oooooh! It's Boss Iris' mother! Wow! I can really see the resemblance between them! Both mother and daughter look so beautiful and sophisticated!"

The Black Stars cheered for Wei Lan, paying their respect to her as the mother of their boss, especially now that the two seemed to have repaired their relationship and had grown closer to each other.

Wei Lan waved at the people in a lady-like manner. Her security was eye-catching like when she attended the red carpet events at the Sommet International Film Festival in France.

Some thought that she was acting too full of herself, while the others looked impressed. Regardless of what these people thought of her, the person herself didn't care. All she cared about was maintaining her image as an elegant and classy viscountess.

The media couldn't wait to interview her. Wei Lan being revealed as a Spanish viscountess was one of the biggest bombshells dropped while in France, in addition to the relationship announcement of her one and only daughter to the President-CEO of Jin Corporation.

Wei Lan was having the time of her life being adored by a massive crowd like this. She also enjoyed the envious stares of some of the other guests on the red carpet. However, she didn't show her glee on her expression, maintaining her image of a viscountess instead.

While finishing up her interviews, the crowd went crazy all of a sudden. Wei Lan was frightened, thinking that there was a violent stampede in the crowd.

"What's happening?!" she panicked.

"Madam, please calm down. There's nothing wrong," one of her bodyguards told her in a low voice. "The people are just reacting to the next guests."

"Huh? Who are they—"

The crowd went even crazier. Their screams were so loud that the noise made it feel like the entire place was vibrating from the invisible sound waves.

Wei Lan turned her head. She wanted to know the people who were currently stealing her moment. Then she saw them.

Maestro Ludovico De Luca walked on the red carpet, looking very regal in his custom black suit. His greying hair and the bald spot on top of his head gave him a wise and honourable appearance. He looked kind yet intimidating at the same time.

Walking beside the maestro was Enrique Valdez. His electric hazel eyes, chiselled features, olive skin, and toned body made a lot of people almost hyperventilate regardless of gender. The man was just too gorgeous! Those who didn't know about his personal details would never believe that Enrique Valdez was already almost in his sixties with his youthful appearance.

The two walked together. Maestro De Luca's wife didn't come with him this time.

"KYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!!!!!!"

"Enrique Valdez!!!"

"Maestro De Luca!!!"

"Am I dreaming?! Or am I dead?! Am I really seeing these two music legends in the flesh?!!!"

The crowd almost went insane with overexcitement. They kept screaming and shrieking. It was a good thing that the police was present or the crowd would have already gone out of control.

"Why are Maestro De Luca and Enrique Valdez here? Are they related to the owner of Orchidia Beauty as well? What kind of person is the owner to be able to gather all of these influential figures?"

"Aren't those two close to Iris Long? Maybe they're attending this event because Iris Long is one of the endorsers."

"No way. Coming to China just to support an endorser? I don't believe that even for a second. This event is for Orchidia Beauty, not for Iris Long. She's only the endorser. Why would the maestro and Enrique go all the trouble of travelling so far for Iris Long? I think it's more plausible that the two are related to the owner of Orchidia Beauty. Didn't you see that gorgeous foreign lady earlier? I heard that she's a super famous artist and that she's friends with the owner. Maybe Maestro De Luca and Enrique Valdez are the same."

"Yeah, you're right. I think that's more logical. If that's really true, then the owner of Orchidia Beauty must be someone very impressive, powerful and influential. How can a regular businessperson gather all of these VIPs in one event? I really can't wait for the big reveal tonight."

"Me too!"

The curiosity and anticipation for Orchidia Beauty's mysterious owner only grew stronger as the red carpet event reached its final stretch.

Maestro Ludovico De Luca and Enrique Valdez's arrival meant that everyone's attention was on them. The media was almost beside themselves trying to grab this rare opportunity of interviewing the two world-famous music legends.

The two granted short and brief interviews. It was mostly the maestro speaking. Enrique Valdez only needed to look with his gorgeous hazel eyes and the interviewers would immediately become tongue-tied and muddleheaded, unable to remember what the hell they were asking him.

The man knew full well the effect he had on other people, so he used his overpowering charisma to literally shut people up. It worked to his advantage because he wasn't the type of person to waste his words over meaningless chatter. He treasured his words as if they were more precious than gold.

Everyone was so preoccupied with the two music legends that nobody noticed the final vehicle arriving. A tall, handsome man and a beautiful woman stepped out of the vehicle onto the red carpet.Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click www.webnovel.com for visiting.

Seeing that nobody was paying attention to them, Iris was delighted. She chuckled, her voice sounding like tinkling crystal bells.

"Look, darling. No one knows that we've arrived. I think we could sneak inside and nobody would even notice. Clover is correct. There will be less attention on us if we arrive right after my two mentors. Clover is really capable. I should give her a raise. She's also becoming more used to the way we do business here in China. If she continues her excellent work, I can finally promote her for an executive position in Orchidia Beauty as early as next year."

Jin Liwei nodded. "The Chuas are good, hardworking and loyal people. We are lucky to have them."

"Yes."

Taking advantage of the current situation of nobody paying attention to them, Jin Liwei leaned forward and kissed his baby girl directly on her luscious lips.

But right at that moment…

"KYAAAAAAAAAAAAH! It's CEO Jin and Boss Iris! They're kissing in public!!! KYAAAAAAAAH!!! How daring!!!"
