Chapter 123: Lin Chenggong Is Quite Foolish
“Are there any excellent and handsome bachelors to introduce to me?”
‘I’m giving you an analysis of the dynamics of our social circle and you’re asking me if I have any brilliant and handsome bachelors to recommend?’
Huo Zihang glanced at Yan Jinyi and was even more certain that she was getting ready to cheat on his brother.
‘No. I mustn’t let her be bewitched by those hunks out there, but I can’t say that there aren’t any eligible bachelors.’
After thinking about it, Huo Zihang ran a hand through his hair and smiled at Yan Jinyi sinisterly. “I’m in the top ten of the rankings of the tall, handsome, and rich men of the city, as ranked by majority of the women in the city.”
Yan Jinyi rolled her eyes and turned around to go upstairs. “You’re nuts.”
Feeling like he had been dealt a huge blow, Huo Zihang pulled out his cell phone and took a selfie in the angle that he liked.
‘I’m obviously very handsome!’
‘Yan Jinyi has terrible eyesight. She criticizes me even though I’m so handsome.’
‘Gee…’

Finally, the day of the premiere of ‘Female Fortress Leader’ was coming up.
As expected, the premiere of ‘Islander’ was on the same day as ‘Female Fortress Leader’.
First of all, there was the screening, which was held in a cinema belonging to the Huo Group, thanks to the connection of Second Young Mistress Huo.
The premiere of ‘Islander’ was screened in a cinema belonging to the Tang Corporation.
Bright early in the morning, the majority of netizens began to discuss the two films.
Now, it had evolved into a contest between the Huo Group and the Tang Corporation.
”Although Mr. Huo is my idol, I’m standing on Mr. Tang’s side this time. I can’t help it, ‘Female Fortress Leader’ is destined to be a flop.”
“The Huo Group failed because they invested in Tao Wei’s film where the female lead is a maniac with violent tendencies. It’s a pity that my Zhuang Heng and Second Young Mistress Huo invested all that money.”
“For Zhuang Heng’s sake, I shall buy a ticket for ‘Female Fortress Leader’, but I’m really looking forward to watching ‘Islander’. I heard that Liu Ran has a breakthrough role.”
The screenings for both movies were scheduled for 7 pm.
At noon that day, Lin Chenggong posted several posts on Weibo in a row.
“Lin Chenggong: Thank you to the chairman of Tiancheng Film Industry for coming to the premiere screening of ‘Islander’.”
“Lin Chenggong: The famous actress Miss Liu Zhenzhen will attend the premiere screening of ‘Islander’ together with her newly wed husband, the vice president of Yuanhang Enterprise. Welcome.”
“Lin Chenggong: Thank you Mr. Zhang, Madam Wang…”
Yan Jinyi was already on her way to the movie theater with the main cast and crew.
After seeing what Lin Chenggong posted on Weibo, she remarked, “Lin Chenggong is pretty silly.”
“He’s just showing off. Doesn’t it look like he’s showing off to everyone the people who gave him flowers after his death?”
Yan Jinyi looked at Tao Wei and said, “Director Tao, that’s the truth.”
“Little Pepper, I think Lin Chenggong is like a psychopath too,” Zhuang Heng said as he inched closer and smiled radiantly. “Little Pepper, praise me quickly. I’m the best at scolding others.”
“Zhuang Heng, you must have been a woman in your last life.”
If it was another man, he would have definitely picked a fight with Yan Jinyi.
Obviously, Zhuang Heng was not like other men.
Upon hearing her words, he blinked his peach-blossom-shaped eyes and waved at her shyly. “Ah, Little Pepper, you must have been my other half in my previous life. We’re really a match made in heaven.”
“…”
Yan Jinyi took a deep breath and said, “Get lost.”
“Jinyi, Lin Chenggong invited so many people to the screening. Just because of this alone, I reckon it will attract a large audience once it’s officially released tomorrow.”
Yan Jinyi raised her eyebrows and asked, “Will there be no one watching ‘Islander’ without these people?
‘Well, Lin Chenggong’s ability to create clout is indeed…’ Tao Wei couldn’t help but look at the people in the car again before staying silent.
“We should be the only people at our screening, but the clips that you need have already been edited. I’ll upload them onto the internet at the end of the screening.”
