His Genius Wife is a Superstar

Chapter 540: A Tale All the Way from Munich

The two emcees, the brother and sister Dominic and Clover Chua, wore solemn expressions. But for some reason, they still looked entertaining.

"One day, there was a beautiful young woman who travelled to Munich, Germany," Dom began. "She visited the local street market and saw an interesting stall. The stall looked shabby and empty compared to the other stalls bustling with tourists. However, the beautiful young woman noticed that quite a number of local women were buying from that particular stall. It seemed that the stall targeted locals unlike the other stalls that aimed for tourists."

Clover smoothly continued her brother's tale. "The stall sold a variety of homemade liquids and creams in simple glass bottles and mason jars. The beautiful young woman also observed something intriguing—the female seller and her customers all had smooth, bright and glowing skins. She became curious. 'Why are their skins so beautiful?' she asked herself. She made her way to the stall and started talking to the seller. Then she discovered another surprising fact."

"The products—all the liquids, creams and lotions—were all homemade!" Dom exclaimed in excitement. The audience couldn't help but laugh, even if they didn't intend to. The siblings just had an effect on others, making them feel very entertained.

"What's more, they were all made with ONE HUNDRED PERCENT natural ingredients formulated through natural biological processes!" Clover exclaimed next, enunciating each syllable of "100%".

Dom: "The beautiful young woman bought one of everything right then and there, and then took the German seller's contact details."

The audience could discern by now that the tale was about the start of Orchidia Beauty. The beautiful woman in the two emcees' tale must be the founder and owner of the company. They looked around, trying to figure out if she was sitting among them. They were already curious about her identity before this but listening to the interesting tale, they became even more so.

Clover continued to hook the audience with the story. "The beautiful young woman returned to her hotel suite and used some of the products that very night. They felt very nice when applying, but she didn't really notice anything different."

Dom: "However! When she woke up the next morning, her skin became super-duper soft—like a baby's butt!"

Loud laughter and giggles erupted from the audience.

"Ehehehe." Dom couldn't help but break out of his serious storyteller persona to giggle as well but quickly became solemn again when his sister elbowed him hard.

"Be serious, Big Bro," she scolded him.

The audience laughed even harder seeing their antics.

Clover smiled at the audience, still maintaining her storyteller persona unlike her brother. "After learning of the amazing effects of the homemade skincare products, the beautiful young woman continued using them for a few days with more noticeable results. Then she decided that it was finally time to contact the seller."

Dom: "It turned out that the one who developed all the products was the seller's brother! Right then and there, the beautiful young woman offered to create a company with the amazing skincare products and make them available to consumers. The German sibling agreed. And thus—"

"Orchidia Beauty was born!!!" Dom and Clover both exclaimed.

All the guests clapped their hands and cheered. It was very interesting to know how the currently hyped new company, Orchidia Beauty, was founded.

Dom: "Please welcome to the stage, Mr. Alric Bauer and his sister Miss Alona Bauer!!! Yay yay!"

The German siblings stood up from their seats beside the other foreigners (from Cross Academy but the other guests didn't know that...for now). The brother and sister headed to the stage amidst the loud applause.

Alona looked nervous but she was a naturally vivacious person. The excitement was clear in her eyes. Her brother, Alric, was silent and looked bored at first glance. But upon closer look, his eyes were also sparkling with excitement.

"Mr. Alric Bauer is the Chief Product Officer of Orchidia Beauty," Clover informed everyone. "He and his sister, Miss Alona Bauer, are the heads of the Product Development team of the company. This all basically means that Mr. Alric is the one who developed all the wonderful products that many of you have tried already and loved. He was also the one who singlehandedly created the homemade skincare products that his sister sold in the unassuming stall in the local street market back in Munich, Germany. Without him, there will be no products. And without the products, there will be no Orchidia Beauty!"

The audience couldn't help but stand up from their seats to give the German siblings, specifically Alric Bauer, a well-deserved standing ovation. What kind of dedication, hard work and passion did it take to develop such amazing products?

Alric nodded his head in thanks while Alona bowed to the audience. Her eyes were already teary.

The two emcees allowed the loud standing ovation to continue for a few more moments before they gestured for the audience to settle down and return to their seats.

"Next, please welcome to the stage Miss Long Jinjing!" Dom announced.

Long Jinjing stood up from beside her mother and walked to the stage. She was also wearing a midi dress like Clover but hers was cherry blossom pink. Her outfit accentuated her pure and gentle image. She might not be as gorgeous as her sister Iris Long, but she was also good-looking and attractive in a more subdued way.

Upon seeing her, the audience started whispering among themselves.

"Hmmm… That's CEO Long Tengfei's daughter with a mistress. See that woman there? That's the mistress, the girl's mother. I don't know why they're here."

"I think the more important question is why is Long Jinjing, CEO Long Tengfei's daughter with a mistress, heading up the stage?"

"I heard that she graduated from business school with honours."

"Yes, she did. She and her friend who also came with her tonight graduated with honours. I know because my son also attends the same university. Those girls are my son's seniors."

"I heard that the two were supposed to work at Long Industries after they graduate. They already had job offers, but then they didn't go through with it in the end. It seemed that they accepted jobs in another company."

"Wait. Don't tell me they're working for Orchidia Beauty!"

"Oh my goodness. I think you're right! Don't tell me Long Jinjing is the beautiful young woman in Munich, Germany who founded Orchidia Beauty with those German siblings from the story just now!"

Long Jinjing had now reached the stage. Dom played the gentleman and helped her up.

"Careful, milady," he said in an elegant accent, even bowing to her with an exaggerated sweep of his arm.

"Dom." Long Jinjing pouted, her face turning red.

"Ehehehe."

"Fufufufu."

The brother and sister, Dom and Clover, were too mischievous!

Long Jinjing felt very nervous. She was sweating but forced herself to calm down. Her eyes found her mother in the audience who was smiling at her with pride and love. Seeing her mother and even her father's proud expressions gave her strength and courage.

"I'm so nervous, too. You're not the only one," Alona whispered to her in English.

"Thank you."

Clover raised the mic close to her mouth and announced:

"Miss Long Jinjing is Orchidia Beauty's Chief Financial Officer!"
