His Genius Wife is a Superstar (Web Novel)
chapter-455

Jazz music softly played throughout the dimly-lit high-class bar. It wasn’t labelled as an "exclusive" bar, but only those with deep pockets could afford its price tags on the drinks, snacks, entertainment and the ambience. At the moment, there weren’t a lot of people, so the atmosphere was mellow and easy-going. The bartender wasn’t rushing to finish orders and was even chatting with the guests.

Rose Young was currently at this bar, waiting for her friend to arrive. She was wearing a little black dress with a plunging neckline. There was no worry of breasts accidentally popping out because she didn’t have any. Her body might be flat on both the bust and the butt, but at least she had a pretty face. She wasn’t drop-dead gorgeous in any way, but as a successful business executive, she had the alluring aura of an ambitious and independent woman about her.

There were certainly a few men in the bar who tried hitting on her, only to be flatly rejected.

First of all, she was in a bad mood. Neither the cocktail she was drinking nor the lovely jazz music was helping to improve it.

Second of all, she didn’t have the interest in flirting with other men at the moment because her entire mind was filled with the love of her life.

She had been in love with Jin Liwei for as long as she remembered. The first time she had met him was when she attended a party hosted by the Jin family with her mother. She was only twelve years old at that time, while Jin Liwei was fourteen. He was already so cool and handsome back then. It wasn’t only her who harboured puppy love for him. Lots of other girls wanted him to be their first boyfriend. Unfortunately, he didn’t care about any of them.

Wanting to be close to him, Rose Young begged her parents to let her move to China and attend the same exclusive international school he and his brother Jin Chonglin were attending. However, her father rejected her idea. The Youngs were based in Singapore and it was their home. No matter how much she begged, he wouldn’t budge. After an intense negotiation, a compromise was reached. She was allowed to spend her entire summers in China.

She attended all of the parties the Jins hosted, hoping to have the opportunity to talk to Jin Liwei. It was fortunate that her mother’s family was close to some of the branch families of the Jins. It ensured that they would always get invitations to the Jins’ parties, even when the main family didn’t personally invite them.

Because of this connection and the fact that the Youngs ran Jin Corporation’s Singapore branch, she felt that they were meant to be together. She started calling him "Big Brother Liwei", trying to be close to him. Although he always ignored her and didn’t pay attention to her at all, she didn’t mind. At least, he wasn’t treating another girl in a special way. He treated all girls the same way—like dirty and smelly rats. Her personal mission was to become that special girl, to be the first woman who he would give special treatment.

She swore that she was going to be his first girlfriend, his first lover, his first and last wife, and of course, the mother of his children. In addition, she would also become the next Madam Jin.

As a result, she did everything to be closer to him. Since he was a high-achiever, she also studied very hard and received excellent grades. Jin Liwei needed a woman on the same level as he was beside him. When she found out the he was accepted into an American Ivy League business school, she almost fried her brain studying so that she could follow him there. Her hard work paid off. She got accepted into such a world-class university.

She thought that this was her chance to grow closer to him. And indeed, they frequently encountered each other in the campus because she made sure to know where he was all the time. She followed him around without being too obvious. She befriended his friends. They attended the same parties. They even spoke a few times. Unfortunately, he remained cold and indifferent to the opposite sex as usual.

But Rose Young didn’t mind. She had a masterplan she intended on executing step by step. First was to graduate from university. Second was to return to her home country and work at the Singapore branch of Jin Corporation, gaining experience and growing her credentials. Third was to find a way to get transferred to the main headquarters so that she could finally work in the same place as her future husband. Fourth was to perform her best and become indispensable to Jin Liwei at work. Fifth was to grow closer to him and become lovers. Last but not the least was to marry him and become his wife.

Everything was going smoothly until she found out that he suddenly became engaged. At first, she didn’t believe it, thinking that it was just fake news. But when she asked some of her friends in China, they confirmed that Jin Liwei personally admitted that he had a fiancée.

It was the most devastating blow that she had ever experienced in her life so far. Jin Liwei was her dream, the ultimate goal that she had been working so hard to achieve. And yet she found out that someone else—a slut, whoever she was—had snatched her precious dream away?

No!!!

So what if he was engaged? They weren’t married yet! She still had a chance! Even if they were married, they could still divorce. Even if it was less than ideal, she didn’t mind being a second wife, as long as she could still have him in the end. Once she had him for herself, she intended on becoming his last wife.

It was also a good thing that her family supported her dream of becoming Jin Liwei’s wife. Rose Young was actually surprised that her father had a change of heart in recent years. He wasn’t keen on her love for Jin Liwei before, telling her that she needed to find a man who would love her and treat her like a queen, not like Jin Liwei who wouldn’t even look at her properly.

But he suddenly changed his tune and began dreaming of the moment she officially became Madam Jin. He even started helping her behind the scenes to rally support for her among the board of directors in order to get her directly promoted to an executive position at the main headquarters. It turned out that his father had become her biggest supporter in her quest to obtain Jin Liwei’s love.

Rose Young left Singapore and moved to China, excited to stand beside Jin Liwei as his fellow executive at Jin Corporation. Because the majority of the board of directors supported her appointment as the new CMO, she was treated extremely well when she started working.

Every time she attended a meeting with Jin Liwei or personally discussed something business-related with him, happiness and love filled her. It strengthened her resolve to get closer to him. She believed that she still had a chance with him, even though he was already engaged.

Besides, his fiancée’s identity was still unknown. No matter who Rose Young asked among her friends, they had no idea who the woman was. Rose Young concluded that the slut was someone who Jin Liwei felt embarrassed to introduce to the public, hence the need to keep his fiancée’s identity private.

"As expected, I’m the only woman who deserves to stand beside him," she would always tell herself.

When a rumour among Jin Corporation employees started, saying that she was actually Jin Liwei’s real fiancée, she was delighted. Some asked her directly if it was true. She always replied in a vague manner, not admitting or denying anything.

Then an idea flashed in her mind. With the help of one of her friends, she was able to make this rumour spread even more. Her friend could only post on gossip forums because the official news outlets were too afraid to publish unconfirmed reports about Jin Liwei. They didn’t want to be sued by the most powerful man in the country’s business world of his generation. He would surely win because he had the best lawyer in the country.

Rose Young didn’t mind. The gossip forums were already enough. All she wanted was to fan the flames of the rumours about her and Jin Liwei. She hoped that by doing this, she would become more accepted as his fiancée to the public rather than his real fiancée who he hadn’t introduced yet. So when the slut’s identity was finally revealed, everyone would think that Rose Young was so much better for Jin Liwei.

Never did Rose Young expect, however, that her little plan would completely backfire on her. Now she had become the laughingstock at the company. Even worse was that Jin Liwei, the love of her life, started completely disregarding her existence.

She could endure it even if people were laughing at her. After all, she thought that she would be the one getting the last laugh when she married Jin Liwei. But she couldn’t bear that Jin Liwei stopped giving her the courtesy of talking to her even if it was just as fellow executives working at the same company.

It was all the fault of that blasted KittyBaby who uploaded the hotel surveillance video clip on the internet. If it weren’t for the video, people would still continue speculating that she was Jin Liwei’s real fiancée.

Rose Young believed that if KittyBaby wasn’t Jin Liwei’s fiancée herself (that slut), then it must be someone the woman directed to humiliate her. The slut’s voice played in her mind,insulting her and warning her away from Jin Liwei. She couldn’t think of anyone else besides the slut who would have a grudge against her.

Her thoughts were interrupted when she felt a tap on her shoulder. She turned her head and saw her friend who finally arrived.

"Hi Rosie~ How are you? That’s a nice dress you’re wearing, but you would’ve looked better if you put some pads on your chest. I know the best plastic surgeons in Asia. I can introduce you to one, if you want. Just look at my girls." The woman grabbed her large breasts and squeezed them in front of her and the bartender. "I was also as flat as you before but look at me now! I’m SE-XY and FA-BU-LOUS!!!"

Rose Young rolled her eyes before giving her friend a superficial hug and air kisses on both cheeks.

"You’re late," she said, not minding her friend’s comment about her chest at all.
