Chapter 531 - The Guests Arrive Part I

The next day was chilly and overcast. Yet a massive number of people crowded around a big convention centre in the outskirts of the city. They endured the cold weather, refusing to leave even when the sky drizzled on and off since early morning.

Fortunately, this wasn't a busy area compared to the city centre. There wasn't much traffic either. The great crowd didn't inconvenience others except for the few residents and people working in the area. They were also generally peaceful and didn't create too much trouble. Despite this, the police still sent more officers to patrol around the convention centre's vicinity to make sure that the people obeyed the law.

The crowd was mostly made up of fans. They weren't a single fandom. All of these people came to support different celebrities. However, one group stood out from this sea of fans. Every single one of them wore black suits, looking very much like triad members and alarming some of the passersby into reporting them to the patrolling police officer nearby.

This particular group was already used to dealing with the police whenever they wore their iconic tuxedo suits together to support their boss. They didn't panic and stayed calm while explaining to the police that they were law-abiding citizens and not a violent triad group.

It happened so often that most of the city's police officers already recognized their group upon sight, even chatting with them like old friends. A few of the police officers even became part of the group and wore suits on their day off in order to support their beautiful boss.

The fans weren't the only ones making up the great crowd. There were also a lot of members from the media. Media trucks with well-known logos of their broadcasting news stations were parked around the convention centre. The reporters and the cameramen had already started scouting the area and interviewing the fans waiting outside.

When passersby saw the great crowd of fans and the media, they wondered what was happening.

"Which celebrity is having a concert at the convention centre today?" one of the passersby asked. "There are so many of you who came. It must be a famous celebrity."

"It's not a concert. It's launch for a beauty company," a fan replied.

"What? A company launch? What kind of company launch would garner this many people? I thought that it would either be a concert or a major sports event. But a company launch? This is nuts."

"It's for this new company called Orchidia Beauty. It's very popular right now in the beauty community. Almost all of the major social media influencers are raving about it, including some celebrities. Our Prince Lin Lin—I mean Jin Chonglin even endorses it alongside Iris Long. It's because of the two that a lot of us fans came here today. We already confirmed that our Prince Lin Lin and Iris Long will be attending the launch later."

"Oh, I see. So that's why. I like their song 'Shining Eyes'. I also watch the drama. It's so good! Their song is still #1 in the music charts ever since it debuted which is super impressive. So all of you here are Iris Long and Jin Chonglin's fans?"

"Most of us are. But it's not only us. There are also other fan clubs who came. There are other celebrities who confirmed that they will be attending the launch later, so their fans came here today as well. Plus the social media influencers and other internet stars who were invited have their own followers. I think many of them are here too."

"Wow! Really? What kind of company is this Orchidia Beauty to be able to invite all of these celebrities? Is it really a new company? This is basically an all-stars event!"

"I know, right? That's why in addition to coming here today to support our favourite celebrities, we're also all very curious about the owner of Orchidia Beauty. They're keeping the owner's identity a secret for now. So mysterious! But we'll all know who it is later! I'm so excited!"
