His Genius Wife is a Superstar

Chapter 484: Vizcondesa Lan

Jiang Ying Yue stepped out of the black, luxury car first. She wore a long qipao-inspired emerald dress with an intricate phoenix pattern. It was sleeveless, so her muscular arms stood out the most. The other foreign guests viewed her fit body with a mixture of admiration and envy. She looked elegant and strong at the same time. She stepped aside to allow the next person to step out of the car.

Wei Lan emerged from the car wearing a deep sapphire blue dress. The neck, sleeves and the bottom part of the skirt were made of sheer fabric woven with thousands of crystals sparkling brightly from the spotlights and camera flashes. She also wore an intricate diamond hair piece which looked like a tiara but wasn't. Her makeup was subdued compared to what she usually wore in the past. Smoky eyes and nude, glossy lips. Her posture looked graceful. Overall, Wei Lan really looked the part of an elegant and dignified viscountess.

This time, the organizers sent a few representatives to give a warm welcome to Wei Lan and Jiang Ying Yue. They were especially respectful, polite and enthusiastic towards Wei Lan who they referred to as Vizcondesa Lan.

The people who saw this scene instantly became curious about Wei Lan and Jiang Ying Yue. The spectators immediately grabbed their smartphones and searched up the Viscountcy of Castillo de Estrellas. They confirmed that it was indeed a real title of nobility in Spain. They couldn't find any additional details about it, though. All they could glean from the paltry information available on the internet was that the viscount and everyone in his noble household and businesses were all extremely low profile. Despite the lack of information, the people still felt impressed by Wei Lan. After all, she was a real life member of nobility even if it was through marriage.

As for the other VIP guests, they couldn't search up more information about Wei Lan like the spectators because phone use was strictly prohibited on the red carpet. Instead, they planned on approaching her later to introduce themselves and directly speak to her. If she really was a viscountess, then it would be a good idea to befriend someone of high status like her.

Wei Lan and Jiang Ying Yue walked together on the red carpet. Since Wei Lan was a member of nobility, the organizers allowed her to bring more bodyguards compared to the other VIP guests. Most of the VIP guests like Maestro De Luca and his wife, Enrique Valdez, and Grandpa Lu and Lu Zihao didn't bring any bodyguards at all. They just came on their own.

It was only Wei Lan who took advantage of the situation in order to show her status as a viscountess. She brought ten bodyguards—all Jin Liwei's subordinates. They arrived on a separate private jet at dawn that same day. Her entourage made her look extra important and impressive to everyone.

She posed with Jiang Ying Yue for photos, once again wowing everyone with her confidence and skills in posing. Her past as a model certainly shone through, as she naturally found the best angles and lighting to ensure that every photos taken of her were all flattering.

As for Jiang Ying Yue, she looked stiff compared to Wei Lan's gracefulness. She stood military-style with her back ramrod straight. Instead of looking awkward, however, it made her look strong and even intimidating.

Fortunately, Wei Lan didn't force her to do some of the poses they had been practicing for days. Wei Lan concluded that Jiang Ying Yue's stiff military-style pose looked more natural than if she forced herself to pose like how Wei Lan taught her.

"Vizcondesa, look here!"

"Smile, Vizcondesa!"

The photographers shouted requests at Wei Lan. Of course, she granted all of them. In the end, she posed for far longer than the time allotted to the guests. However, the organizers didn't rush her and allowed her the extra time. The special treatment was very apparent.

Everyone was very curious about her. The members of the media wanted to interview her. Unfortunately, there were no interviews allowed on the red carpet. They had to wait for the formal dinner after the opening ceremony later that night in order to conduct interviews.

It was only the Chinese reporters who recognized Wei Lan. However, they still had to do a double take to make sure that it was really her.

Wei Lan was also somewhat famous back in China, or more accurately, she was infamous. She was known as the mother of Iris Long and also as the high profile ex-wife of Long Tengfei. Their divorce back then filled the entertainment news and tabloids, especially after Wei Lan demanded a ridiculous amount of alimony and child support from Long Tengfei. What was even more ridiculous was that she got everything she wanted from her ex-husband. After the divorce, she had become a notoriously extravagant socialite who everyone loved to hate. In short, her reputation back home wasn't pleasant at all.

"When did Wei Lan become a viscountess?" the Chinese reporters asked among themselves.

"I have no idea. But what I do know is that this is surely gonna be BIG NEWS!"

They joined their foreign peers in snapping hundreds of photos of Wei Lan. They couldn't wait to publish them online. Perhaps their bosses might even feel enough interest to feature this story on a TV news program or in a newspaper article. They thought that Wei Lan suddenly becoming a Spanish viscountess was the biggest Chinese news of the night.

They couldn't wait to interview her at the formal dinner later. There were so many questions that they wanted to ask her. These Chinese reporters became too focused on Wei Lan that they had almost forgotten the purpose of why they came here in the first place. They were here to cover the participation of the only Chinese entry, the movie "Strong Yet Broken", in the Sommet International Film Festival.

One Chinese reporter wasn't just snapping photos like the others. Instead, he was livestreaming the red carpet event for the Chinese viewers back home.

In just a few minutes of featuring Wei Lan, the viewers count immediately jumped from a pitiful 200 to almost 80,000. And it was still increasing.
