She thought, Jun Yexuan was here to show loyalty towards Qiao Qing and therefore intentionally tried to make her look bad. After all, her international position was not to be messed with.She started to feel some resentment towards Jun Yexuan.
Then, she turned around to Qi Yusen, “Young master Qi, you can try it too. Maybe you…”
“I only like ‘Wild Green’ as well,” Qi Yusen interrupted her rudely and destroyed her last ray of hope.
Everyone else laughed at this.
“She keeps on getting slapped in the face. I think her face has turned green.”
“I thought the Xu family’s perfume would be the best given its high price point and its reputation. But it looks like others don’t even care for it!”
“Last month, I bit my tongue and bought my wife a set of their perfume. In hindsight, I shouldn’t have done that.”
Xu Pingting was shocked to hear that and became flustered.
Just then, someone spoke out from the crowd, “Honestly, I think the Xu brand has some good perfumes. Or else those international celebrities wouldn’t be using them. I’ve been using Ms. Xu’s ‘Orange Love’, and I’ve been really liking it.”
Xu Pingting heard this and felt better.
“Exactly,” Someone else agreed, “I’ve heard of ‘Wild Green’ but I’ve never used it. I don’t know what it would smell like in real life, but the Xu Corporation’s perfume really is good.”
“Who do you think you are, third young master Jun and first young master Qi? You may have certain attachments to your objects, but it’s not nice to talk down on the Xu Corporation’s products.”
Xu Pingting felt better at those fans’ words.
She smiled, “‘Wild Green’ is a great product and I respect the perfumer Queen. I’m sure that perfumer worked for years to come up with such a product. I will work hard and hopefully come up with something just as excellent as ‘Wild Green.'”
Her words were humble and big-hearted – everyone liked that.
Someone else then added, “Perfumer Pingting is only 25. To have achieved so much so young is already expressive.”
“Yeah, though ‘Wild Green’ is good, Queen may be a senior. Maybe that’s why there have been no other products after ‘Wild Green’. If it isn’t because he’s old, it must be because he’s out of ideas. When Goddess Pingting reaches Queen’s age, I’m sure she’ll be making products better than ‘Wild Green.'”
Qiao Qing, “…”
Xu Pingting’s heart felt better after she heard all the praises.
She thought of something and said, “Wait, next week, we’re having the night cruise. Since it’s the first time third young master Jun and young master Qi are visiting, are you interested in attending the party?”
Mu Jinghang curiously asked, “What is the night cruise?”
Gong Yi responded, “It’s an entertainment activity hosted by the upper class of country Z. It’s an annual event where everyone from the upper-class party on a cruise that’s parked in the sea.”
“There are several activities hosted there, such as darts or archery.”
“Since pure entertainment can’t attract everyone, there’s a period of time dedicated for entrepreneurs to sell their products and themselves.”
“Interested investors may also get involved and those entrepreneurs would take the chance to network and advertise.”
“Lastly, there’s the traditional ball. The ball is very suitable for couples to celebrate their love and for singles to find a partner. There’s a new twist to the dance every year, such as it being a masquerade, or there being a rope to pull each other in with. I wonder what kind of new thing there’ll be this year.”
