Lady Gu Is Too Weak To Fend For Herself

1587 That Unique Perfume

“As Xi Xi had done too many things that I couldn’t forgive, I had no choice but to let her leave. Later on, I was afraid that Dad would be sad if he found out, so I simply pretended that she never appeared.

“When Xi Xi appeared again, I thought that Xi Xi had turned over a new leaf after five years. However, I didn’t expect that she still couldn’t tolerate Qingzhi. She even…”

Before Kang Ru could speak, Old Madam Kang flew into a rage. “Vicious little b*tch! I already said that we can’t bring her home! Ah Ru, you’re worse than Jichuan!

“Five years ago, she pushed Qingzhi down the stairs. Now, she’s even slandering Qingzhi. We have to sue her and let her go to jail! We can’t let Qingzhi suffer!”

Kang Ru felt as if he had been struck by lightning, and his face suddenly turned pale.

He knew that Xi Xi did not like Qingzhi, but he did not expect Yunqiu’s daughter to actually push Qingzhi down the stairs and make her lose her memory. His heart was filled with sorrow, and he could not say a word.

Kang Jichuan took a deep breath. “Dad, I also want to make it up to her and dote on her, but she has disappointed me time and again. All these years, she has been wandering outside and has been tainted by too many bad habits. She can’t change them!”

Kang Ru frowned and clutched his chest in pain.

Kang Qingzhi lowered her head and smiled proudly.

“Dad, although Xi Xi is related to us by blood, she doesn’t treat us as family. Why force her?!”

At this moment, Qiao Xi was sitting in the lounge and listening to the Kang family’s conversation.

“Look at how he’s distorting the truth. Kang Jichuan is really shameless!” Qiao Xi grunted coldly. “Ah Zheng, can you still find the surveillance footage from five years ago?”

Gu Zheng’s voice was extremely gentle. “Do you know the exact location and time?”

“In a villa in Y Nation’s Kang family. I remember that there’s a park nearby. That day, Kang Qingzhi fell down the stairs and was injured, but I can’t remember the details.”

Xue Yi: “…”

Her gaze shifted between Gu Zheng and Qiao Xi with a shocked expression.

Little Six was too forceful! She wanted Gu Zheng to look for the surveillance footage from five years ago just based on a vague location and time?

However, the next second, Gu Zheng nodded gently. “Alright, I’ll find the surveillance footage as soon as possible, but what do you want to do with it?”

The corners of Qiao Xi’s mouth curled up slightly. “Let’s talk after the competition ends. It’s better to be prepared!”

20 minutes later, the finals officially began. The ten contestants at the event location would compete, and in the end, three contestants would advance to compete for the championship.

“The champion will definitely be Kang Qingzhi! She’s Mu Jin. To be honest, there’s no need for her to participate at all. She’ll simply crush the other contestants.”

“The competition’s organizers didn’t stipulate that top perfumers can’t participate. Moreover, the remaining people are all famous in the industry. They’re just not as famous as Mu Jin.”

“Only Bright Moon is a newcomer. She entered the top ten in her first competition. Why haven’t I heard of such a powerful contestant before?”

Everyone sized up Bright Moon in confusion.

The perfume competition began. The theme of the competition was ‘scenery’. This theme was not difficult, but it was not that easy to make someone smell this perfume and think of the corresponding beautiful scenery.

When Qiao Xi saw this theme, she instantly recalled that there was a perfume recipe in Kang Qingzhi’s hand that had not been used. At that time, she named that perfume ‘Rime’.

The theme was scenery, so everyone would think of blooming flowers and the blue sky. If Kang Qingzhi was a little smarter, she would think of this unique perfume recipe. Rime was a natural scenery in the northern part of the country. It was neither ice nor snow. Instead, it was white sediment condensed by water vapor on tree branches. This sediment was beautiful, bright, and sparkling. It was like a blooming flower. It was a work of art bestowed by nature to humans.

There were definitely many people who would choose warm scenery. The judges wouldn’t find it interesting anymore. If a perfume based on cold scenery suddenly appeared, it would naturally attract everyone’s attention and liking. Hence, Kang Qingzhi would definitely use this perfume recipe.

Qiao Xi pondered for a moment and glanced at Kang Qingzhi. She seemed to have thought of something, and her eyes flashed. Then, she picked up a pen and wrote something on the paper.

The final battle would last for a total of three days. The contestants would start making incense at nine in the morning and end at seven in the evening. They would return to the lounge arranged by the competition’s organizers. They were not allowed to leave midway.

Soon, two days later, most of the contestants were almost done. There were still a few hours left tomorrow morning. The contestant could make the final adjustments. At 12 o’clock, the competition would officially end. After everyone had lunch, the judges would give the final results in the afternoon. They would also invite the 20 participants to judge together to ensure that the competition was fair.
