HIS GENIUS WIFE IS A SUPERSTAR

541 - 550

Chapter 541 - The Revelation Part I

Gasp!

The guests who were gossiping about Long Jinjing just now had expressions of shocked disbelief on their faces. What?!! The illegitimate daughter of Long Tengfei with a mistress was Orchidia Beauty's CFO?!!!

Iris, Jin Liwei, Sun Jingfei, Long Tengfei and the others in their big group led the applause for Long Jinjing. Those who didn't know who she was—mostly the ones who weren't members of high society—followed suit and clapped their hands as well without hesitation.

"Long Jinjing? She has the same surname as Senior Iris. Are they related? They don't look alike, though."

"I think it has been mentioned before in the past that Iris Long has an older half-sister. Maybe she's the one?"

Amidst all of these gossiping in the audience, Long Jinjing gradually felt calmer after seeing her family and friends lead the applause for her. She might not hear them, but she certainly knew that the other guests were talking about her. She didn't mind it, but she worried about her mother who already had a reputation of being her father's mistress despite living a low-profile life away from high society.

However, Sun Jingfei was a tough and resilient woman when she needed to be.

"Don't worry, my child. Your mother will be alright. I'll attend the official launch. Why do I need to care about what others think and say about me? All I care about is how proud I am of my daughter! Imagine! Sun Jingfei's daughter is the CFO of a company right after graduating! Mother is so happy! We should always be grateful to your sister for giving you this opportunity," her mother told her a few days ago when Long Jinjing expressed her concern.

Long Jinjing stopped worrying too much about it after hearing her mother's assurance. However, her worry returned tonight, especially after seeing the judgmental looks some of the guests from high society were throwing at her mother and the two of them.

But now that she was onstage and introduced as Orchidia Beauty's CFO and also seeing the support of her family and friends, all her worries were washed away. She stood up straighter and her eyes became sharper.

'I am the CFO. I have every right to stand here,' she told herself.

After the applause died down, the emcees prepared to make another introduction.

Dom: "Next, please welcome Miss Chen Fei! She's Orchidia Beauty's Chief Operating Officer!"

Chen Fei stood up and headed to the stage as well to join her best friend, Long Jinjing, and the others. She walked with confidence and purpose. There was no hesitation in her at all.

"Finally, let's welcome MYSELF, Clover Chua! I also actually work for Orchidia Beauty, too. I'm the CEO's administrative assistant. Just want to let you know. Ehehehe."

The audience laughed at her corkiness. But knowing that she was the CEO's administrative assistant intensified their curiosity about the CEO even more. They weren't even sure if the owner and the CEO were the same person.

'I guess we'll just find out,' they thought.

Dom: "Now, the moment you have been all waiting for has finally arrived! I know that you've been wondering about this for so long."

Everyone sat up straighter and leaned forward, focusing all their attention to what he was saying. They didn't want to miss any of his words.

Dom: "Now please welcome the beautiful young woman who discovered the wonderful homemade skincare products from that local street market in Munich, Germany. With her keen eyes, she was able to spot the special qualities of the products. She gave the Bauer siblings the opportunity to sell their products to all of us, to China, and eventually in the near future to the rest of the world!"
