Chapter 1538 Liberté’s Public Grand Opening (Part I)

Today's grand opening of Liberté to the public wasn't as formal as the exclusive launch party yesterday.

Due to Jin Chonglin's surprise proposal to Orchidia's COO Chen Fei at Liberté's launch party yesterday, many reporters and paparazzi camped outside the perfumery. Many of them were Chinese, but there were also a lot of French and international news outlets.

Jin Chonglin's status as a superstar was very evident today.

Fortunately, Iris had foreseen this, so she had already instructed Clover to contact the local police in advance to help control the crowd along with Liberté's temporary security.

Customers and fans lined up neatly while those with media badges were all grouped together behind a designated barricaded area.

Everything and everyone was well-organized.

This was the scene that Iris' group witnessed after arriving at the perfumery. Once she and her husband alighted from the vehicle, screams arose from the crowd. Cameras clicked nonstop from the designated barricaded area containing all the media representatives.

"Boss Iris!"

"Kyaaaaaaaa! Iris Long is so beautiful in person!"

Iris' eyes widened in surprise. She looked over at the neat line of people waiting to enter the perfumery and saw quite a lot of them wearing tuxedo suits. She gave them a bright smile and a wave, causing them to squeal.

"I expected that most of the people coming today would come for Brother Chonglin," Iris murmured to her husband. "But there are many Black Stars who actually came for me, too."

Jin Liwei's mouth curved up. "Of course, love. The Black Stars are all loyal to you."

What Iris didn't know was that Jin Liwei had arranged for a group of Black Stars in advance to fly to Paris for Liberté's grand opening to the public. He asked Ketchup (a.k.a. KittyBaby) to help him choose some deserving Black Stars among the fan club, especially those who couldn't afford to buy plane tickets themselves, and flew them all using one of his private jets.

The father and AI cat daughter kept the secret from their wife/mother.

Jin Liwei had also bribed Bacon to keep it a secret from Iris. As a result, Bacon didn't snitch on his father and AI cat sister to his beloved mother. He happily saved the money his father used as a bribe and already started thinking about what to gift his mother next.

Iris pulled Jin Liwei to where her fans waited.

The Black Stars were known as one of the most organized fan clubs. They stayed in their places and waited for their Boss Iris to come to them instead of attempting to run toward her.

This was largely in part because Iris was also known to always take a few minutes to interact with her fans when the situation allowed her. Even at times when she couldn't interact with them due to time constraints, she would still acknowledge them with a smile and a wave, unlike some celebrities who would just walk straight without even nodding at their fans.

"Hello, thanks for coming," Iris greeted them.

She took the time to sign autographs and take pictures with them, assigning CEO Jin as the photographer. These Black Stars felt like they were in seventh heaven. Their Boss Iris was chatting with them as if they were the closest of friends.

CEO Jin also gave them a stern look full of warning. They gave him a covert nod.

Before they were flown to Paris, they had been asked to sign NDA forms by CEO Jin's people stating that they weren't allowed to divulge the fact that CEO Jin was the one who flew them to Paris to attend Liberté's grand opening to the public. They should keep it a secret to their Boss Iris as a surprise. After they returned back to their home country, then they were free to share their experiences to others without any issues, if they wanted. But during their stay in Paris, they had to keep their mouths shut.

Jin Liwei nodded in satisfaction. Indeed, his wife's fans were the best. True Black Stars were extremely loyal.

Iris recognized a few people among her group of fans.

"You already came yesterday at the launch party and you're still coming today? Not tired?"

The fans shook their heads. "Not tired, Boss Iris! Thanks for giving us the invitations. Yesterday's launch party was so much fun but we still want to come today to support you!"

"It was intimidating with all the important people all around us, but the food was delicious, and the performances were superb! The English version of 'Rebirth' was awesome! We also received a lot of Liberté and Orchidia freebies!"

"And we got to witness Prince Lin Lin's proposal! I can't believe that he'd fumble it so badly. Hahahaha! I felt so embarrassed for him!"

"I didn't know that he could be so funny! I felt so bad for him that I even joined him in crawling on the floor to look for the ring. Hahahaha!"

Iris joined her fans in laughing at the memory of her brother-in-law's clumsy proposal yesterday.

The other Black Stars heard what they were talking about. They felt envious of their fellow Black Stars who had been able to attend yesterday's exclusive launch party. They immediately started asking them about their experience from yesterday.

Clover and Dom came to remind Iris of the time. She reluctantly excused herself.

"I'll see you later inside the perfumery," she told the Black Stars.

"See you later, Boss Iris!"

"Please go ahead. Don't mind us."

"We're looking forward to buying the fragrances!"

She smiled at them. "Everything will be 50% off today."

"Wow!"

"Yay!"

"50% off! I love it!"

"This is awesome. I wasn't able to buy from the online pre-orders because everything already sold out so quickly. But look at me now buying from the actual Liberté perfumery in Paris! This will be a memory I'll forever cherish in my life. Wuwuwu!"

Clover led Iris and Jin Liwei to the designated barricaded area for the media for interviews while Dom stayed with the Black Stars, chatting with them, and hyping everyone up for the grand opening shortly.
