“Wait.” Just as the wealthy ladies and young heiresses were getting up, fully satisfied and ready to leave, a woman’s voice suddenly rang out from behind.
Everyone turned to look.
They saw a stylishly dressed woman walking over.
Shen Ning raised her eyes and saw Shen Mei striding towards her, exuding an air of arrogance. Shen Ning’s lips curled into a cold smile.
It seemed
The troublemaker had arrived!
“Shen Ning, first, congratulations on the perfect success of your tea party. However, over these past few days, 1 have received some different opinions. Many are from the company’s long-term employees, and some are from our former clients. These opinions all concern Gu Qi perfumes. As half-owner of Gu Qi, 1 have a responsibility and an obligation to clarify these issues. You don’t mind if I address these concerns in front of the public, do you?” Shen Mei smiled gracefully, carrying herself with particular elegance, her voice soft and gentle.
Those who didn’t know the inside story would have thought she was genuinely concerned about the company’s development and the future of the perfumes.
Even the wealthy ladies thought she had come to boost Gu Qi perfumes.
Only Shen Ning understood.
She was here to sabotage, to make her lose face.
If there was anyone here who wished for her not to succeed, it was undoubtedly her half-sister right in front of her!
Of course,
She wasn’t afraid.
In the perfume industry, if there were no problems, that was what she feared the most. Having problems was a good thing.
However, she cast her gaze towards the man sitting on the far right, and a chill ran down her spine.
This was the tea party he had organized for her, and he had promised her that Shen Mei wouldn’t be allowed to attend.
The tea party had already been very successful, but he had broken his promise and allowed his fiancee to come and disrupt her event.
A disdainful smile played on her lips.
“No problem at all. Please, go ahead. The formula for Gu Qi perfumes has always been transparent, and the quality is safe and reliable. It can withstand any questioning or scrutiny,” she answered confidently and loudly.
“Very well, then I’ll begin.” Shen Mei nodded, smiled slightly, and took the microphone from the host. The first few questions raised were quite normal and had indeed been discussed by company employees.
Shen Ning answered each of them.
At this point, the wealthy ladies, assuming these were just internal company matters, started getting up to leave.
However, at that moment, Shen Mei changed the direction of her questions, suddenly asking in a loud voice, “Shen Ning, today 1 received a report that alleges you added toxic substances to Gu Qi perfumes. Not only do they have an unpleasant smell, but they also contain addictive components that stimulate the mind.”
With these words, the entire venue erupted in shock, and everyone turned to look at Shen Ning, their faces filled with astonishment and anger.
Shen Ning felt a sweet, metallic taste rising in her throat, and her vision went dark for a moment. She was instantly trembling with anger.
As co-owner of Gu Qi, she had publicly raised such a terrifying issue about the perfume at a promotional event.
This was an attempt to destroy her and her perfumes entirely!
The level of malice was truly horrifying!
“Miss Shen, is what she said true? Does the perfume really contain toxic substances?”
“Miss Shen, does the perfume really contain the ingredients of a date-rape drug?”
“Miss Shen, this is so frightening. Why would you deceive us like this?”
“Miss Shen, please give us a straight answer to this question. If you cannot provide strong evidence, we will sue you and expose you to the media, making it impossible for you to continue living in the capital.”
A barrage of questioning voices overwhelmed her.
If she had been so adored just a while ago, now she was thoroughly despised by them..
