His Genius Wife Is A Superstar

Chapter 721 - Nobody Noticed

"These are the last bundles. They go to the ground floor. Just make sure that before they’re moved there, you check that all the ties holding them together are secure so they won’t fall all over the place while being transported." After giving instructions, the foreman rushed to the nearest portable toilet.

His colleague was also experienced, so he took no issue in handling the task. He began checking the remaining bundles with an expert eye. But before he could finish checking the final bundle of regular plumbing pipes, another colleague called him for help. Seeing that all the other bundles had no problems, he only gave a cursory glance at the final bundle and deemed it safe before leaving to help his colleague.

After he left, another group of construction workers arrived. Although the foreman was not present, they found the written marks on the pipes indicating that they had already been checked, so they didn’t waste any time transporting the pipes to where they were supposed to go.

Unknown to them, the final bundle of steel pipes began to loosen from their packaging. The ties holding the pipes together looked worn and in danger of breaking. The good thing was that the pipes only needed to be transported to the building’s ground floor so the distance was shorter compared to the other bundles which needed to be lifted to the upper floors by crane. The ties held on and didn’t break after arriving at their designated place in the ground floor.

Even then, the ties continued to stretch, silently breaking apart little by little. But nobody noticed.

The food that Iris ordered for the construction workers started arriving by the time Jin Liwei and his entourage made their way back to the ground floor of the unfinished building. Delicious aroma permeated the air and made everyone salivate. There was nothing fancy about the lunch but the portions were big and the dishes familiar. They were guaranteed to satisfy the worker’s hungry stomachs. There was a selection of different types of desserts included as well.

Xu Tian stepped forward and announced that everything was ordered by President Jin’s fiancée which most of them already knew was the celebrity Iris Long. It caused an uproar not only among the construction workers but also to the people in the middle of delivering the food. [This novel is a contracted work with W e b n o v e l . c o m (remove spaces).

"Holy shit!" one of the younger delivery guys exclaimed. "Don’t tell me that the man my mom was taking the orders from on the phone earlier was the famous Dom Chua, Boss Iris’ best friend and assistant extraordinaire? Ah! If I knew, I would’ve snatched the phone from my mom and took the lunch orders myself so that I could brag about it to my fellow Black Stars online!"

Within minutes, the news that Iris Long ordered a generous lunch feast for all the manual workers who were working on a Jin Corporation project spread all over the internet. Once the Black Stars learned about it, they descended in droves and shared the news like crazy online. They were all very proud and couldn’t stop praising their Boss Iris to the heavens as the most generous woman in the world. The news spread so fast that even a few major news outlets decided to feature it, mostly because it involved not only Iris Long but also Jin Corporation.

"Iris Long Serious About Taking on Role as Next Madam Jin by Feeding Fiancé CEO Jin’s Employees"

"Celebrity Iris Long to Leave Showbiz Career After Marriage to Focus on Cementing Position as CEO Jin Liwei’s Wife?"

"Critic: What Generous? Iris Long Only Putting Up Fake Appearances to be Worthy of Madam Jin Title in Public"

Different speculations were being thrown around online about the real reason why Iris Long gave out lunch for hundreds of construction workers. Many praised her but there were also quite a number of haters who accused her of having ulterior motives and only pretending to be generous for the sake of looking good to the public.

It didn’t take long before the Slipper Army was summoned among the Black Stars to scold and troll all those criticizing their Boss Iris. Prominent troll leader KittyBaby, who was quickly surpassing the original Slipper Army leader iEatSlippers in infamy, led the charge online. Her precise and lightning-quick attacks silenced the critics in no time.

Back at the construction site, the people weren’t aware that all this drama was happening on the internet. They were busy feeling excited about the food.

After learning from Xu Tian that it was Iris Long who ordered the food for them, the workers thanked her in front of Jin Liwei, even though they were nervous of talking to him. Some even felt scared. But upon seeing his easygoing attitude in accepting their thanks which was the complete opposite of his usual icy one, they couldn’t stop themselves from being shocked speechless.

"Damn, this is unbelievable," they whispered among themselves. "If I didn’t see it with own eyes, I would say that you’re lying if you told me that President Jin is capable of giving a sincere-looking smile. Now we know to use Iris Long’s name the next time the president scolds us. Maybe he won’t be as scary like usual."

They nodded at each other in agreement.
