His Genius Wife Is A Superstar novel Chapter 1260

Although René Alejandro had expressed that he didn't want to turn his birthday party into a big media spectacle complete with a red-carpet event, he still didn't stop Wei Lan from inviting various influential members of the media. For example, she invited some authoritative editors and journalists of renowned magazines, newspapers and other media outlets.

These people were attending as guests tonight and not officially doing their jobs but nobody among them was stupid. All of them understood that their invitations came with the expectation that they would have to write something about the event and feature it.

With all the socializing and charitable activities that Wei Lan had been doing as a new Spanish vizcondesa ever since her return to the country, it was obvious to members of high society and the media how much she wanted fame.

Many still looked down on her clout-chasing behaviour but only very few openly showed their derision at her anymore. After all, even if someone didn't care about her foreign husband's real aristocratic title, Wei Lan was still now the true mother-in-law of CEO Jin Liwei. _{ƒreewebηoveℓ.com}

Her daughter, Iris Long, might be difficult to become close with because of her extremely high-level security detail after becoming the Young Madam Jin, but Wei Lan was a different story. Wei Lan loved being in every high society functions and interacting with powerful, wealthy people. The vizcondesa was so much easier to find and befriend than her daughter, Iris Long.

On paper, tonight's event was the birthday of Wei Lan's Spanish step-son and fundraising auction for the Iris of Hope foundation, but the smart ones understood that it was just another way for Wei Lan to increase her visibility and charitable reputation.

There might not be an actual red-carpet event but everyone knew that tonight's function would be highly-publicized after seeing the influential editors and journalists among the guests.

Wei Lan was, of course, thrilled at the prospect of becoming more famous as a kind-hearted step-mom to her step-son, and of course, as a generous and hard-working ambassador for her daughter's charitable foundation.

As for René Alejandro, his only thought was of doing his part in accomplishing his mission for the organization. He needed to succeed in integrating into the domestic high society and forging favourable connections with the high echelons of this country. Tonight's event was definitely an integral step in his mission. He couldn't fuck it up no matter what.

Wei Lan and René Alejandro along with Randy continued greeting the guests and directing the staff to receive the donated items for the charitable auction.

Some of the guests were already previously acquainted with René Alejandro after Wei Lan kept on bringing him along to various social events.

"Yo, René!" Yu Mo greeted the Spaniard. "Happy Birthday, dude!"

"Mo, my brother! I am so happy that you can come tonight." René Alejandro beamed, both his dimples on full display and causing several ladies on sight to almost swoon.

Yu Mo handed him a present while handing a staff member an item he would be donating for the auction.

"Ah, thank you," René Alejandro said. "But there is no need to give me a present, no? You coming is already enough for me, my friend. And thank you for your donation. Your charitable spirit will surely help many less fortunate ones."

The new friends chatted for a little bit before the flirty Randy personally led Yu Mo inside.

When Jin Liwei's figure stepped out of a luxury vehicle, it seemed as if all the other guests stopped what they were doing to stare at him. They watched him as he turned around and extended a hand inside vehicle before a silk-gloved hand held him followed by the figure of a beautiful and elegant young woman.

Iris Long was wearing a large, puffy but classically stylish long wrap around her long dress. Jin Liwei quickly escorted her to the mansion to avoid the cold.

There were other guests who were lining up before them but all of them gave the couple a wide berth to let them in first.

Jin Liwei wasn't polite at all and accepted their intentions. He didn't want his pregnant wife to be exposed to the cold outside for too long. Iris gave the other guests polite smiles of thanks.

"Xiuuuulaaaaaaaan and Liwei my deaaaaaar~" Wei Lan greeted them with great enthusiasm. Her voice was loud enough for even guests already inside to hear. "You're finally heeeeere!"

As one of René Alejandro's main targets, he wouldn't waste this precious opportunity to talk to Jin Liwei. He called a staff to greet the rest of the guests while he and Wei Lan personally escorted the husband and wife inside.

While René Alejandro was chatting with Jin Liwei, Wei Lan pulled her daughter aside to judge Iris' outfit.

"My gosh, Xiulaaaaaan! What are those biiiiiiig flower things in your front? They're hiiideeeeouuus! You should've caaaaalled Mother and I could've helped you choooooooose a better designer to make a couture dress for yoooooouuuuu!"
