Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Feng Jianing was in a state of excitement as she continued introducing the second perfume seriously into the microphone. She didn’t notice that the way Charles and Angus looked at her had changed.

Feng Qing, who was playing games, suddenly received a message on her phone screen. “Dear YLL, our great perfume maker, did you really participate in this year’s International Fragrance Competition?”

Feng Qing was in the midst of carrying Xie Shihao and Gu Qingye in the game, so she couldn’t care less about replying to the other party. Although she didn’t save this phone number, she knew that the other party was Angus, the vice president of the International Fragrance Alliance.

Angus had always had her phone number, but he had never seen her in person or called her, so he knew nothing about her. He only knew that she was from Xia country.

“Yeah, ten consecutive wins!” Feng Qing exclaimed in her heart as she watched the special effect of the explosion of the other party’s base.

After thinking for a while, she wrote a message and sent it back to Angus. “I was at the scene and just finished the competition. Although I didn’t get first place, I entered the finals.”

Angus felt incredulous at YLL’s reply. He even showed Charles the message. Then they both looked at the judges.

“Those judges are fake, right? They didn’t give YLL the first place? How dare they!” Angus’s temper flared up. He wished he could rush over and argue with the ten judges.

Charles stopped him and gestured for him to calm down. Angus was angry, but he was not a brute. On second thought, he quickly understood. He really could not blame the judges for this. Just now, he and Charles had smelled the perfume made by all the contestants, but they had still not realized that any of them were made by Master YLL.

“So YLL didn’t perform well?” After thinking about it, Angus found that was the only reason.

Charles smiled slightly and said meaningfully, “I think YLL did it on purpose. He’s hiding his strength.”

“Dear friends, thank you for your hard work. The competition is very exciting, but the next auction segment is even more exciting. According to the rules of the International Fragrance Competition, after every competition ends, the host will auction the perfume that the contestants have concocted. Now, please look at the auction stage on the left. All the contestants’ perfume is placed there. Everyone can bid on the designated Internet platform of the competition through the perfume number. The final bidder will win.” The speech segment of the award ceremony ended and the host continued the process.

The audience was instantly interested as they walked to the left where the auction stage is. As they admired the colorful perfume, they picked out a bottle or two of their preferred perfume to try.

Ever since she obtained the first place, the smile on Feng Jianing’s face had never disappeared. Looking at the people crazily raising the price of the two bottles of perfume she had concocted, she wished she could dance a ballet to celebrate.

“Little Uncle, what do you think the two perfumes my aunt made smell like? Aren’t you interested at all?” Xie Shihao asked Xie Jiuhan as he watched people start bidding on the platform.

Without waiting for Xie Jiuhan to answer, he said with admiration, “Little Uncle, the smartest decision you’ve made in your life is to marry Qingqing to be my aunt. Not only is my aunt beautiful and sweet, but she’s also good at playing the violin and mixing perfume. I don’t think you can find another outstanding aunt like her!”

Xie Jiuhan enjoyed Xie Shihao’s flattery very much. He glanced at Xie Shihao and said confidently, “There’s no rush. The perfume your aunt made will return to the Xie Manor in the end.”

No matter who bid for Feng Qing’s two perfumes, they would not be able to escape his grasp. He believed that no one would say no to becoming rich overnight. One could do anything with money and he could crush everyone with money.

Of course, the most direct method was to directly bid on the Internet and raise the price of Feng Qing’s two bottles of perfume to the sky. So what if Feng Jianing was first? The perfume she made would never be more expensive than Feng Qing.

On the LED screen at the scene, the live broadcast was showing the situation of the online designated auction platform. Everyone saw the price of the two bottles of perfume that Feng Jianing had concocted. The number was crazily jumping up, far exceeding the price of the other competitors’ perfume..
