Chapter 688: You did this to Yourselves
The perfumers below the stage exploded.
“Oh my god. How insane. This must be what it means to be a genius!”
“This is wayyyyy too insane. Her first perfume set the bar ceiling high!”
“I’ve been mixing perfumes for more than a decade but I’m worse than a 15-year-old girl?! She’s not human!”
“The thing is, she doesn’t even specialize in perfume mixing. Isn’t that so infuriating?!”
“A lot of her skills are not things she specializes in yet she excels at all of them. This girl’s existence is a miracle!”
“...”
The compliments rolled in like waves. Up on stage, Qiao Qing asked the MC, “Do you have any other questions?”
The MC was so shocked by Qiao Qing’s answer that she forgot what she was going to ask next.
The judges eyed her furiously but the MC didn’t take the hint and simply shook her head.
Qiao Qing was about to step down from the stage when Zhang Heng stopped her, “Queen, are you considering making a career of your mixing skills? With your capabilities, you can make sure this industry improves greatly!”
Qiao Qing’s face was cold, “I’m not considering that.”
Zhang Heng, “...”
He was about to say more when Jun Yexuan, who by now had pulled Qiao Qing against his chest, said, “Don’t even think about it!”
Zhang Heng, “...”
Qiao Qing and Jun Yexuan went back to the resting area and were about to give the trophy to Gong Yi when they realized he was not there. Only Qi Yusen awaited them.
Qiao Qing frowned and asked, “Where is he?”
“I don’t know.” Qi Yusen said, “He just left. Perhaps he went to the washroom.”
He then pulled Qiao Qing in for a hug, “Qingqing, you’re so capable. I am now ashamed. I was wrong before. I should’ve trusted you. My Qingqing is so good at everything. How is it possible that you are not good at mixing perfume?”
Jun Yexuan, “...”
Was the hug necessary?!
Qi Yusen glared at him.
Qiao Qing patted Qi Yusen’s back, “It’s okay.”
After Qiao Qing answered cooly, she sat down.
“Then, let’s wait for Gong Yi. I’ll give him the prize and the recipe for the fragrance. Then, we can leave.”
However, Qiao Qing didn’t feel settled. Her eyelid continued to jolt.
The other perfumers started to leave. There were some who stayed behind to network with Qiao Qing. However, due to Jun Yexuan and Qi Yusen, they didn’t dare to get close to her.
Xu Lu was about to walk over when a perfumer from the Gong Corporation asked, “Where’s CEO Gong?”
Xu Lu turned to look at the perfumers from the Gong Corporation, “CEO Gong? Have you forgotten that the agreement was, if Ms. Qiao wins the competition, you are all fired?”
The perfumers’ faces dropped. They finally remembered this agreement.
Some people remembered it but thought they could get away with it. Now that it was brought up again, their faces turned white.
“I don’t think I need to say more.” Xu Lu said, “Go to HR, get your money, and leave.”
The group of people became flustered. They all looked over to Qiao Qing but quickly shuddered after Jun Yexuan glared at them.
Helpless, they went to Xu Lu for help, “Sister Xu, please, ask Ms. Qiao to forgive us!”
“Yeah, Ms. Xu, you’re good friends with her! Since we’ve been coworkers for so long, please say something on our behalf!”
“Ms. Xu, we never should’ve fought against you this afternoon! Please, help us out!”
“...”
Xu Lu snickered, “Help you? All I have to say to you is, you did this to yourselves!”
