489 Is It Him? (1/2)

Many heads turned to the direction of the pair of new arrivals after hearing the emcee's announcement. This was especially the case for the businessmen and the others who were related to the business industry one way or another. The name Liam Jin was a big name in the international business world. After all, he was the current President-CEO of China's number one multinational company, Jin Corporation.

For many years, he was also known as one of the most eligible bachelors among the top business executives in the world. As a top executive, he was often invited to important high-class events like this. Whenever he attended any social events, he never brought or escorted any women except for his own mother or grandmother.

This was the first time that he came with a woman who wasn't related to him by blood. As a result, his fellow executives from other top companies were curious about his companion's identity. Who was she? It was reported that he was recently engaged to a mysterious fiancée that he hadn't publicly introduced yet. Was she his fiancée?

The couple had only began walking the red carpet.

Guan Jintao, his wife, and the rest of the cast and crew of ”Strong Yet Broken” heard Iris Long's name in the announcement. Their eyes lit up. Finally, their group would soon be complete. Since they were farther along the red carpet, they couldn't see her yet.

”It looks like Iris Long came with an escort. Maybe it's her fiancé,” the actress playing Guan Jintao's mother commented.

”I think so, too,” the actor playing the adult Guan Jintao replied. Then he tapped his chin, as a thoughtful expression appeared on his face. ”Hmmm… Liam Jin sounds familiar….”

His cast mates and the crew members looked totally clueless. Guan Jintao also had a contemplative expression despite his closed eyes. It seemed that he also had an idea who this Liam Jin was.

The main actress said, ”Really? This is the first time I've heard of that name. But that's because I don't know much about the business industry. Iris Long has repeatedly mentioned before that her fiancé is a businessman.”

A couple of seconds after she said this, the main actor's eyes widened. He gasped, finally realizing who Liam Jin was. The main clue was ”businessman”. The producer and the director also realized it at the same time as him. Their jaws fell down in shock. They turned to the President of LX Productions who wore a knowing expression on his face.

”Is it him?” the producer asked.

The President of LX Productions nodded.

”No way…” the director whispered in disbelief.

”Huh? You know this Liam Jin?” the main actress asked them.

”Oh shit. Yeah, I know him,” the main actor replied. He looked as shocked as the producer and the director. ”Actually, I think you know him, too. We all know him. Holy shit, Iris Long! Is this for real?”

”Really? I know him, too? How come I don't remember?” the main actress asked, looking confused.

The other cast mates and crew members were also confused. They continued to ask the others who Liam Jin was, but they didn't answer.

”Iris Long and Liam Jin have already arrived on the red carpet. We'll meet with them shortly. Be patient,” Guan Jintao told them. Based on his expression, it seemed that he had also already recognized Liam Jin based on his name.
