Reporters rushed into the press conference venue, their momentum akin to a scramble for cash.

In their bid to secure the best spots, a few reporters almost came to blows.

Xue Ying could hardly believe the explosive scene before her, "Lin Chen, how did you manage this?"

Lin Chen smiled, "This is just a small surprise, the bigger one is still to come, come with me downstairs to meet someone."

Saying this, Lin Chen headed downstairs, with Xue Ying following behind him, bewildered.

When they reached the ground floor, Xue Ying was almost dumbstruck. The entrance was tightly surrounded by a crowd of young people, and the hotel security was maintaining order.

"Lin Chen, what on earth is going on?" Xue Ying was completely baffled.

The scale of the crowd was so immense that it was almost unbelievable for Xue Ying.

At that moment, a Mercedes-Benz business sedan slowly drove up, and under the protection of dozens of security guards, a young woman gracefully stepped out of the car.

With her tall figure, slender waist, and enchantingly sexy face, she instantly drove the surrounding fans wild, and even a dozen security guards were scattered by the crowd.

Lin Chen frowned, turned to Xue Ying and said, "Wait for me for a moment," then squeezed into the crowd.

Zhou Ying was surrounded by crazy fans, and although she had bodyguards and Zhao Lili to protect her, she was still being jostled uncomfortably.

"Sister Ying, there are too many fans, let's go back first!" Zhao Lili whispered.

"No, I promised Xiao Chen, I can't break my promise." Zhou Ying shook her head, still struggling to push through the crowd.

Suddenly, someone from behind surged forward, scattering Zhou Ying, her bodyguards, and Zhao Lili.

"Zhou Ying, Zhou Ying..." the fans rushed frantically towards Zhou Ying.

Pushed by the crowd, Zhou Ying lost her balance and fell backward.

"Sister Ying!" Zhao Lili was almost crying. Falling in such a large crowd was extremely dangerous and could easily lead to a stampede.

But just then, suddenly, a force tore a gap through the crowd, and a figure appeared in front of Zhou Ying, grasping her hand.

Zhou Ying had just lost her balance and was terrified; the extended hand was like a lifeline.

She tightly clutched that hand and fell into the arms of the person.

Zhou Ying looked up at the person who pulled her and joyfully said, "Lin Chen."

"Come with me!" Lin Chen held Zhou Ying in his arms and began to push through the crowd.

For some reason, it seemed like Lin Chen had a mysterious power surrounding him that effortlessly parted the people ahead of them.

Lin Chen led Zhou Ying out of the crowd and into the hotel.

Once Zhou Ying entered the elevator, she finally took a breath, "Xiao Chen, you should become my personal bodyguard from now on, you're incredible."

Just now, in Lin Chen's arms, Zhou Ying felt a sense of safety she had never experienced before.

Lin Chen was like a little tank, plowing directly through the crowd, with no one able to get close to them.

"I don't like to run around. Opening a small diner, farming, and selling medicines as a new age farmer sounds good to me," Lin Chen said with a smile.

"Oh please, you're already a young CEO. Calling yourself a farmer is being too modest," Zhou Ying rolled her eyes at Lin Chen.

When Lin Chen introduced Zhou Ying to Xue Ying, she was simply dumbstruck.

Zhou Ying is currently the most popular female celebrity in the Chinese film industry, and the advertisements she endorses are mostly of a charitable nature. She has only endorsed one commercial advertisement, which was for Liu Jia, the richest man in China.

Xue Ying never imagined that Lin Chen would actually invite her.

No wonder Lin Chen dared to bet with Li Yan, and he was so confident.

"Miss Zhou Ying, hello," Xue Ying said, feeling a little excited inside; Zhou Ying was her idol, after all.

"Hello, nice to meet you," Zhou Ying said with a smile and shook hands with Xue Ying.

"The press conference is about to start, let's prepare to go on stage," Lin Chen said with a smile.

The three of them walked towards the venue of the press conference.

"Click, click!"

Under the flashlights, Lin Chen said with a smile, "Hello everyone, we are thrilled that you could join us for the Star Group's new product launch. Today, we are privileged to have Ms. Zhou Ying as our product's spokesperson."

"What? Zhou Ying is endorsing this unheard-of company?"

The crowd below instantly buzzed with excitement. Many had thought Zhou Ying was just making an appearance, not realizing she was there to endorse Star Group.

Zhou Ying greeted everyone with a smile and said, "You might be curious why I am endorsing a product for Star Group!"

"Yes, Miss Zhou Ying, didn't you say you only do charity advertisements?" a journalist sharply asked at that moment.

Zhou Ying smiled slightly, "The advertisement I am doing for Star Group is a charity advertisement, because I have personally used their products and believe in their quality. I believe that Star Group's products will lead the future of China's cosmetics market, making our Chinese female friends more beautiful."

Her statement sent another wave of excitement through the venue. Zhou Ying's words were bold – even the most renowned brands wouldn't dare claim to lead the future Chinese cosmetics market, and yet here was Zhou Ying, known as China's most beautiful woman, saying just that.

The journalists below murmured among themselves, and suddenly Lin Chen interjected, "Let me correct Miss Zhou's statement; it should be leading the world's cosmetics market."

Damn, that was bold! Everyone's attention turned to Lin Chen. Zhou Ying's statement had already been bold, but Lin Chen went even further.

Lin Chen smiled and continued, "Originally, I wanted to give Miss Zhou Ying a signing fee of ten million, but Miss Zhou refused. Let's do this instead: I'll donate this amount in Miss Zhou's name to the Hope Project to support students from impoverished families."

Following Lin Chen's statement, the venue erupted with applause like thunder.

At the venue of the Li Group's press conference, Li Yan, who was watching the live broadcast on his phone, angrily threw his phone to the ground.

Because he knew that the ten million was actually going to be paid by him.

The whole press conference was a huge success. The name of Star Group spread across every corner of China, endorsed by Zhou Ying, and the impact was beyond even Lin Chen's expectations.

In short, Star Group was a sensation, Lin Chen was a sensation, and many were curious about the youthful and wildly confident man beside Zhou Ying.

After the press conference, as the crowd of fans outside grew larger, Lin Chen, for safety, snuck out the back door with Zhou Ying in a BMW.

Lin Chen drove the car, feeling the fragrance beside him growing increasingly unsettling.

To think he was sitting beside Zhou Ying, the beauty regarded as the number one in China, the goddess in the hearts of Chinese men!

No matter what, he had never imagined he'd have a chance to be alone with such a major celebrity.

"Little brother, your sister has helped you so much, how will you thank me?" Zhou Ying asked playfully with a smile.

"However sister wants to be thanked," Lin Chen replied with a smile.

He had just learned that Zhou Ying had skipped an important business banquet to help him.

"You said it, no regrets now, then—I want you!" Zhou Ying looked at Lin Chen with affectionate eyes.
