The screams and shrieks became even more deafening after the arrival of all the celebrities one after another. Everyone was so excited and caught up in the moment that they kept on screaming and shrieking even when they didn’t have any idea who the next people arriving on the red carpet were.
Qiao Yu, Iris’ financial manager.
"Kyaaaaaaaah!"
Lin Yehan and Yu Mo.
"More handsome guys! OMG!"
Long Tengfei, Yang Jiahui and Meimei.
"Aaaaaaah! It’s Boss Iris’ Father!"
"Comrades, Boss’ family has come! Let’s give them a warm welcome!"
"KYAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!!"
Grandma Li escorted by Wang Yingjie.
"Ah? Isn’t that Dr. Wang? He was the doctor who performed my emergency surgery last year! Dr. Wang, thank you for saving my life...and you’re so handsome!!! Kyaaaaaah!"
Huang Yuyan escorted by Jin Chonglin.
"He’s here! Our Royal Prince has arrived!!! So handsome as always!!!"
"PRINCE LIN LIN, WE LOVE YOU!!!"
"KYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!! KYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!"
"Who’s that pretty lady he’s escorting?! Don’t tell me they’re dating! I’m gonna cry!"
"Dumbass! That’s his mother!"
"Huh, what?!! No way! She looks so young!"
"Yeah, that’s why the Jin brothers have such great genes! That pretty lady who looks young is Prince Lin Lin’s mother. She’s our Queen Mother! And the beautiful and elegant elder lady who walked before them and was escorted by that aloof man is Prince Lin Lin’s grandmother. She’s the Old Dowager Queen!"
As one of the main attractions of the event, Jin Chonglin spent a longer time on the red carpet interacting with the fans and reporters compared to the other celebrities who arrived before him. The fans and the reporters couldn’t get enough of him. They didn’t want to let him go.
He could use his superstar status to escape, of course, but why would he do that? First of all, he loved interacting with his fans like Iris Long. Second of all, he wouldn’t be the big star that he was today without the support of the people. Spending extra time interacting with them was his way of showing his appreciation.
After asking about his endorsement for Orchidia Beauty, the grand launch itself, and his latest work, the reporters shifted to another topic.
"Jin Chonglin, what are your thoughts about the engagement between your brother and Iris Long?"
"I approve of it," he replied. "Junior Iris is a great match for my brother. They’re too in sync with each other that it’s unbelievable. All I can say is that they must be true soul mates."
"Hunter, oh Hunter! You’re a predator and I’m your prey! Feel free to shoot me with your arrow of love! Kyaaaaaaaah!"
"Aaaaaah! I’m gonna faint! He’s too HOT!!!"
Grandpa Lu burst into laughter, his voice boomed loud and clear, when he heard what the crowd was screaming.
"Bahahahaha! Listen to what they’re saying, Haohao my boy! Bahahaha! These kids are too funny!"
Beside him, Lu Zihao maintained a roguish but neutral expression. A slight devilish smile lifted the corners of his mouth. At first glance, he appeared happy-go-lucky but his eyes were cold and sharp.
"Why are you not saying anything, boy?! What do you think about all of these people screaming for you? Is your head getting bigger? Are you getting full of yourself? I want to know!"
Lu Zihao ignored the old man’s annoying questions and the noisy crowd—such a bother. Instead, he focused on scanning his surroundings and making sure that everything was safe before the arrival of his sister on the red carpet.
"Hmph! Your beloved grandpa won’t allow you to become full of yourself! If your head becomes too big for your own good, this old man will smack your butt like when you were still a naughty little boy!"
Lu Zihao inwardly rolled his eyes. He didn’t notice that something warm, sweet and slightly sad filled him inside after hearing what the old man said.
"Grandpa, I don’t care about them. I’m not like my little sister who’s a celebrity," he said in a breezy tone.
"Good! Very good! That’s my boy! You really are this old man’s beloved baby grandson! Bahahaha!" Grandpa Lu "patted" his grandson’s back.
The loud thumps made some of the surrounding people wince and look at Lu Zihao with worry. However, Lu Zihao remained unaffected as if the old man’s heavy "pats" were nothing but feathers.
