Chapter 9: Who Touched His Butt?

Tang Chong was also bewildered.

Could it be that he had exposed some flaw?

However, he had completely followed Aken's creative idea for his disguise. Even to be as 'feminine' as the women, he had deliberately changed his habit of walking with a brisk and powerful gait, shortening the distance of each step. He hadn't even spoken, so where could the problem be?

Liu Mingwei did not answer Bai Su's question but instead looked at Tang Chong thoughtfully and said, "Miss Tang Xin, you've grown quite a bit taller recently, haven't you?"

"------"

At that moment, Tang Chong really wanted to punch him.

He thought he had been seen through at a glance, but it turned out the problem was his height.

"---Hmph---Hmm." Tang Chong deliberately cleared his throat and responded in a low voice.

"Tang Xin's voice was injured during singing practice. The doctor advised her not to speak to avoid worsening the injury," Bai Su quickly came over to explain. "During the last physical examination, Tang Xin grew two centimeters taller. She is now 172 centimeters tall. Today, she is wearing boots with thicker soles, which makes her appear taller. Right?"

Tang Chong's standard height is 178 centimeters, while Tang Xin's actual height is only 170 centimeters. To close the height gap between the siblings, Bai Su had to lie and say that Tang Xin had 'suddenly' grown two centimeters. She also said that the boots she was wearing had higher soles—anyway, the other party couldn't verify it.

In fact, the boots on Tang Chong's feet had been modified. Not only were the soles not high, but they were also hollowed out to hide the two centimeters of height.

To conceal Tang Chong's identity, Bai Su and Aken had indeed gone to great lengths.

"I see." Liu Mingwei nodded in understanding. "I was wondering why Miss Tang Xin seemed to need to be looked up to when she got out of the car. I remember the last time we met, even with high heels, our heights were quite similar. Now, she is almost a head taller than me. I have to admit, young people always bring surprises."

"Mr. Liu is so humorous." Bai Su giggled and took the initiative to say, "Mr. Liu noticed Tang Xin's height, but did you notice her new look?"

"I did. I noticed it long ago." Liu Mingwei gave Tang Chong a thumbs up. "She always looked cool. This new look is even cooler. If I didn't know that Miss Tang Xin is an only child, I would have thought she had a twin brother."

Hepburn's legs trembled, and her face turned even paler.

Lin Huiyin quietly approached and held her hand tightly.

Their eyes met, and Hepburn seemed to draw strength from Lin Huiyin, no longer feeling anxious.

"Mr. Liu really knows how to joke around," Bai Su responded. "Our Tang Xin has always been positioned as a neutral style. Since we're going for it, we might as well go all the way. This time, the company specially hired the most famous international designer to create her look. We hope the Butterfly Group's career will become even more successful."

"Ha ha. This image change is good and closer to our brand's image positioning—too bad. Miss Tang Xin's voice is injured, so we won't have the chance to enjoy her heavenly voice today."

"There will be opportunities in the future," Bai Su said dismissively.

The market department manager, Yu Dong, came over to report that the event time had arrived and asked Chairman Liu Mingwei and the three members of the Butterfly Group, the brand image spokespersons, to enter the venue.

MIFU had set up a small stage in the hall of Mingzhu Square. A large number of journalists and fans of the Butterfly Group were already waiting outside the stage.

When Liu Mingwei appeared with the Butterfly Group, the flashbulbs went off instantly, and the 'click' 'click' sounds were endless. Countless people pressed their shutters, and the next day, these photos would appear in the entertainment sections of major newspapers.

"Tang Xin----- Wow, Tang Xin is so handsome-----"

"Lin Huiyin, I love you, Lin Huiyin----- Ah ah ah-------"

"Hepburn---- Buben, I love you, Buben-----"

"You are the wind, I am the sand, butterflies fly to every home------"

The fans' enthusiasm was instantly ignited, and hundreds of people shouted with such intense and passionate momentum.

Liu Mingwei, who had seen many things, was not afraid of such a scene. The Butterfly Group was well-known in the entertainment industry, so Lin Huiyin and Hepburn were also familiar with such scenes.

Tang Chong's main job was a student, and after the holidays, he served as a 'temporary counselor' in prison.

So, this was his first time experiencing such a grand scene.

At first, he turned his face to the side to avoid his eyes meeting the camera flashes.

Lin Huiyin, standing next to him, leaned over and whispered in his ear, "Front."

Tang Chong then remembered that he was a star. Stars are there to be seen and photographed. What was the point of hiding? That would be too unprofessional.

So, he stiffly turned his body to face the audience and reporters.

"Tang Xin. You are so handsome, Tang Xin."

Tang Chong thought, they still have good taste.

"Tang Xin, Tang Xin, heart like honey."

"------" Hearing this slogan, Tang Chong almost fell to the ground. Who came up with this? Too uncultured, right?

Tang Chong tried to smile at the fans, and they became even more enthusiastic. He waved, and the fans responded with wild enthusiasm, almost going crazy.

Tang Chong thought, being a star is indeed quite easy.

After letting the fans release some of their passion and the reporters take some photos, the event host took control of the scene and invited MIFU's Chairman Liu Mingwei to give the opening remarks.

Liu Mingwei thanked the media and the Butterfly fans for their presence and said that the cooperation between MIFU and the Butterfly Group was an honor, a pleasure, and a win-win. He believed that with the Butterfly Group's participation, MIFU's market share would continue to grow.

"Thank you, Chairman Liu, for your opening remarks," the beautiful female host said, smiling. "Ladies and gentlemen, please give a warm round of applause to Miss Lin Huiyin. Miss Lin Huiyin will perform the Butterfly Group's main song, 'Butterfly,' on stage—please welcome her with applause."

Rustling sounds filled the air as hundreds of people clapped simultaneously, creating a very stirring atmosphere.

This reminded Tang Chong of the scene when his 'cellmates' bid him a tearful farewell as he left the prison.

Lin Huiyin held the microphone and walked to the center of the stage, not greeting the fans below but standing silently with her head down.

This showed that she was 'cold to the core' and not deliberately targeting anyone.

With this realization, Tang Chong felt much better.

He thought this woman particularly disliked him, which was why she never spoke to him, but it turned out she disliked everyone.

What Tang Chong found hard to understand was how such a group of oddballs as the Butterfly Group could become popular.

One was not good at speaking, squeezing out words two at a time. From their first meeting to now, Tang Chong had never heard Lin Huiyin say more than three words in a sentence. The other was like a big child, unreliable in words and actions, and prone to tears—apart from his sister, who was relatively normal, the other two were VIPs among oddballs.

How did they become popular? Or how did they survive in the entertainment industry?

Not being devoured alive and left with nothing but bones could only mean they had extremely good luck.

The music started, and Lin Huiyin closed her eyes, listening intently. Her left hand gently tapped the rhythm on her thigh.

With her long, black, smooth hair, delicate and cold beauty, oval face, willow-leaf eyebrows, and a small, delicate nose and mouth, she would be a beauty in any era.

Standing 171 centimeters tall, she was 176 centimeters with high heels. Her tall and long legs made her look like an international model on stage.

"They are an idol group," Tang Chong thought. In his understanding, an idol group just needed to look good, and singing skills were secondary.

"Heavy rain soaks the clothes, butterflies break their wings------"

When Lin Huiyin opened her mouth, Tang Chong knew he was wrong.

Completely wrong!

She was an idol and a powerhouse.

This woman was amazing; her clear voice seemed to penetrate the soul. Just one line of lyrics could capture all the nerves in the body.

The moment Lin Huiyin closed her eyes and started singing, Tang Chong clearly felt that she was born for music.

At that moment, everything about her was a moving symphony.

When the song "Butterfly" ended, Tang Chong was still immersed in the music's emotional world, unable to pull himself out.

It wasn't until the fans below started shouting Lin Huiyin's name wildly that he snapped back to reality.

He now understood why they could become popular and why the company put these three oddballs together as a group. Perhaps they had some flaws in their personalities, but this could not hide their extremely talented musical abilities.

Lin Huiyin's performance pushed the atmosphere to a climax. Everyone shouted for her to sing another song, but she coldly refused.

Then came the signing session, where the three members of the Butterfly Group went down to interact closely with the fans and signed on their books, clothes, faces, and cleavages.

Tang Chong was painfully thinking about what Tang Xin's signature style used to be when he suddenly felt danger behind him.

Someone touched his butt.

Without thinking, his first reaction was a 180-degree spin and a side kick.

"Ahh------"

A piercing scream echoed throughout the venue, and the pervert was kicked away by him.

PS: I know, you can be even crazier. Red tickets!!!

Also, thank you to all the big spenders for your support. Since the review section has limited space, the management can't list you all. Old Liu can only release the complete list at the end of the month.
