Chapter 804: Chapter 803 - Mysterious Perfume Master

Seeing that it was almost the end of the year, all the companies were working hard to launch their new products at this time to promote their companies’ sales.

After the wave of popularity of the new products ended, various companies would also use this opportunity to see who could win in this competition. It could be considered good luck for the new year.

Now that the famous perfumers of Gu Corporation had been poached by the Lu family, not only did Lu Corporation have many perfumers, but they had also invited the master perfumer, Sally, from overseas to help out. They even used Han Ye’s paintings as the packaging. With many factors, Lu Corporation’s new perfumes instantly attracted everyone’s attention.

At this moment, almost everyone believed that the champion of this product competition would definitely be Lu Corporation.

The corners of Gu Zheng’s mouth curled into a disdainful smile, then he held Qiao Xi’s hand and entered the venue.

The perfume exchange meeting was held in a hall in Li City. There were more than ten companies attending, and there were more than a hundred people. The entire hall was crowded and lively.

There were many companies under Gu Corporation, and perfumes were just one of their industries. Actually, Gu Zheng did not have to appear. The others did not expect that not only did he come, but he even brought his wife to attend the exchange with him. It instantly caused a commotion.

Everyone knew very well that the Lu family and Gu Zheng did not have a good relationship. Gu Zheng might be here this time because he was afraid that the Lu family would occupy the perfume market and affect the interests of Gu Corporation.

Qiao Xi and Gu Zheng were strolling around the hall, but a figure like Gu Zheng was the most dazzling presence no matter where he went. Everyone’s gazes would occasionally land on the two of them.

Gu Zheng ignored everyone and leaned close to Qiao Xi as he asked, “I heard that the Lu family originally wanted to invite a mysterious perfumer, but they didn’t manage to. Do you know about this?”

Qiao Xi’s heart skipped a beat. “You’re talking about Mu Jin? How would I know? I don’t even know Mu Jin. Perhaps she’s already married and has children, so she’s no longer involved in the perfume industry! Moreover, it’s very rude for so many people to disturb a girl!”

“How did you confirm that Mu Jin is a woman?”

Qiao Xi: “…”

How… How should she explain this?

“Although most of the people who like perfumes are women, the ratio of men to women in perfumers evens out. How did you determine that Mu Jin is a woman, Mrs. Gu?”

Qiao Xi instantly choked. After a long time, she retorted, “She’s called Mu Jin! How could a man be called Mu Jin? This name sounds like a girl with an outstanding temperament!”

Gu Zheng smirked. “Is that so?”

Qiao Xi lowered her head nervously. The perfume industry did not pay much attention to men and women. Many men would also come up with elegant and artistic names. It was not strange for a man to call himself Mu Jin, but at this moment, for the sake of clearing her name, Qiao Xi could only brace herself and say, “I just guessed it! I can’t be sure that Mu Jin is definitely a woman, but this name sounds very much like a woman’s name!”

Gu Zheng smiled and nodded, not making things difficult for her anymore.

On the other hand, everyone was praising a young woman in gorgeous clothes.

“Mengyan, so you’re the mysterious perfumer named Sally that the Lu family invited! You’re really too awesome!”

“Sally is very famous internationally. I didn’t expect her to be so young! Mengyan, you’ve been studying perfumes overseas all these years! As expected of the Xia family’s daughter!”

Xia Mengyan’s movements were elegant as she raised her head and replied indifferently, “Yes. All these years, I’ve been painstakingly studying perfumes overseas. I also participated in the International Fragrance Competition four years ago and won the championship. I only returned after being invited by the Lu family.”

“Mengyan, why are you suddenly collaborating with the Lu family? Don’t you know that President Gu and the Lu family…” The person’s expression was subtle, and everyone understood what he meant.

“What’s wrong with President Gu and the Lu family?” Xia Mengyan looked confused. It was obvious that she did not know.

The person stammered, “I can only tell you that President Gu and the Lu family are competitors. President Gu is also attending the perfume exchange this time to compete with the Lu family for first place. Aren’t you afraid that President Gu will blame you for helping the Lu family?”

Xia Mengyan’s expression changed. “What exactly is going on? I agreed to help the Lu family because I met President Gu in the Lu family when I was young. I thought that he and the Lu family… Forget it, I’ve already signed a contract with the Lu family. No matter what, I’ll do my job. I can’t go against my professional ethics because of outside affairs.”
