Chapter 1542 LinFei
The reporters and paparazzi yelled after them, but Chen Fei didn't look back. She continued dragging Jin Chonglin toward Liberté.
Along the way, Jin Chonglin's army of fans cheered for the couple. Even the Black Stars joined in showing their support.
"Good job, COO Chen!"
"Show them who's the boss!"
"Wow! COO Chen is as cool as our Boss Iris!"
"Why do I feel like our Prince Lin Lin is the damsel in distress being protected by Miss Chen who's the knight in shining armour?"
"Look at Prince Lin Lin's silly grin!"
"HAHAHAHA!!!"
Jin Chonglin flashed his killer smile and waved at his fans on instinct. He didn't hear his fans making of him again with the Black Stars.
Chen Fei heard everything. Although she didn't acknowledge the fans (she wasn't a celebrity herself, so why would she try to satisfy any fans' request?), the corners of her mouth still curved up.
When the couple finally entered Liberté, they were greeted by applause.
Iris gave them an approving smile. Jin Liwei didn't even look at them. He was more concerned about ensuring that his wife stayed comfortable.
Dom and Clover gave them big thumbs up.
Jin Chonglin ran to them and began bragging about his fiancée's domineering battle of wits against the media representatives outside.
Chen Fei released a heavy breath she didn't know she was holding. Iris approached her and patted her shoulder. Chen Fei smiled.
There were no words between the friends but the silent support was more than enough.
Iris gave Chen Fei a couple of minutes to recollect herself. Afterward, she gave Clover the signal. Clover nodded.
Finally, Liberté opened its doors to the public.
The first wave of customers entered. Most of them were Black Stars and Jin Chonglin's fans, but some locals lined up early, curious about what the rebranded perfumery had to offer.
Iris, Jin Liwei, and the others all interacted with the customers, acting as salespeople along with the staff.
"Ah, it smells so good here."
"It's so relaxing. I feel like I'm in the spa."
"Everything looks so classy and elegant."
"50% off, you guys. Everything is 50% today! If only they hadn't imposed a limit of two per type of perfume, I would have bought a lot for my entire family and friends."
"Even with the limit of two, it's still a lot. Remember that there are six types per fragrance according to concentration. I'll buy everything!"
"I'll only buy 'Eve' for now. It smells so good."
"I smelled 'Eve' on Boss Iris when she passed by us. She smells so good. When I tried it on myself, I also smelled good but it's different from Boss Iris. Isn't it cool?"
"I'm usually stressed out, so I'll get 'Sérénité'. I don't know if its aromatherapy features will really work, but even if it doesn't, this is my type of fragrance. So subtle yet still makes me feel high class."
"I don't care that I'm a woman. I'll buy 'Vaillance' to support Prince Lin Lin. I'll buy another one for my dad."
"I'll buy all three fragrances!"
Iris and Yin Meixing didn't force the customers to buy their corresponding fragrances. Jin Chonglin, on the other hand, tried his hardest to influence those who bought only "Eve" and "Sérénité" to also buy his "Vaillance".
After the first wave came a second wave of customers. Then a third, and so on and so forth.
Iris and the others took turns taking short breaks in one of the private showrooms.
Since this was the grand opening to the public, these private showrooms weren't open yet. They would only be opened starting tomorrow for VIP customers who made reservations.
Although Liberté was only offering three official ready-made fragrances now, it was still a perfumery. They also provided a custom-order service where they concoct original fragrances for VIP customers. This service would be conducted in the private showrooms by expert perfumers.
After resting in a private showroom and calling Grandpa Lu to ask about the twins, Iris and Jin Liwei returned to the main store area where endless but organized waves of customers shopped for perfumes.
The whole morning came and went. By lunchtime, the waves of customers still didn't slow down. In fact, there was still a long lineup outside.
Clover had arranged for a few staff members to hand out lunch sandwiches with bottled water for the waiting customers and the police officers helping to maintain order outside.
Even the remaining media representatives got their share despite their aggressive treatment of Jin Chonglin and Chen Fei earlier.
Liberté's actions made the reporters and paparazzi feel better.
Iris, Jin Liwei, and the others also took this time to bid goodbye to everyone.
Yin Meixing and Tang Yiyi left first, followed by Jin Chonglin and Chen Fei.
As soon as the newly engaged couple came out of the perfumery, the reporters and paparazzi once again directed their energy on the two of them.
This time, Jin Chonglin followed his fiancée's example and didn't acknowledge them. However, he did flash his iconic killer smile and waved at the fans still waiting in the line to enter Liberté.
"Prince Lin Lin, we love you!"
"Please take care of our Prince Lin Lin, COO Chen!"
"You're so cool, Chen Fei!"
Then someone started chanting, "LinFei! LinFei! LinFei!"
"LINFEI!!! LINFEI!!! LINFEI!!!"
Chen Fei wasn't paying attention to the chant at first, but Jin Chonglin forced her to stop walking. He nodded along, a pleased grin on his face.
"Our couple name sounds so good," he told her.
She pursed her lips, thinking that it was too corny, but in the end, she didn't say anything caustic this time. Let her man be pleased.
Truth be told, she also liked it deep inside.
She shook her head, fighting a smile from appearing on her lips, before dragging her silly man away and stuffing him inside the waiting vehicle.
Everything had been documented by the reporters and paparazzi on video.
Feeling offended on behalf of their Prince Lin Lin and COO Chen, the fans glared at the media representatives and kept chanting "LinFei" in front of the cameras.
They needed the world to know that they, the fans, supported their Prince Lin Lin. Who were the others to criticize him and his fiancée?
Hmph!
