"Miss Kang, isn't Bright Moon a little too serious? Is there a need to investigate such a small matter? She has already proven her innocence," the girl beside Kang Qingzhi said in a low voice.
Kang Qingzhi clenched her fists tightly and sighed helplessly. "Bright Moon is the victim. She definitely has to find a chance to vent her anger. I'm not afraid of waiting, but I'm just afraid that everyone won't want to wait."
"Making perfumes is very important. Perhaps everyone was in a good state just now, but they won't be in a good state later. It won't be good if this affects everyone's competition."
Kang Qingzhi's words hit home with some of the perfumers. They did not want to waste their time, but since Mr. Twilight wanted to investigate, they naturally did not dare to say anything.
Xu Ling was like a powder keg as she roared, "What right does she have to take up our time?! B*tch, you're so pretentious!"
Everyone paid no attention to Xu Ling's roar. Qiao Xi's expression was indifferent as if she did not hear her.
After a while, the judges returned to the event location with the evidence. The judges all had serious expressions. They did not dare to offend Kang Qingzhi, but that big shot had already said that if they insisted on protecting Kang Qingzhi, then there was no need for the perfume competition to exist.
Zhao Xiang calmed down for a long time. Just as he was about to speak, Qiao Xi suddenly said with a smile, "Wait, I have something to say."
Everyone looked at Qiao Xi, only to see her gaze land on Kang Qingzhi. She asked slowly, "Miss Kang, ever since I brought out the evidence just now, you've been targeting me. Then, you accused me of wasting everyone's time and affecting everyone's performance in the competition…"
Kang Qingzhi gasped. She had deliberately lowered her voice just now, but she did not expect Qiao Xi to hear her.
Qiao Xi stared fixedly at Kang Qingzhi and said word by word, "You've been trying your best to stop me from investigating the truth. Were you the one who reported me?"
Kang Qingzhi's head exploded. Her eyes instantly turned red, and her voice was delicate. "I… I didn't. Miss Bright Moon, why do you always misunderstand me?!"
Below the stage, Old Madam Kang had a vicious expression as she shouted at the top of her voice, "Bright Moon! What nonsense are you talking about?! Qingzhi is just doing this for everyone's sake. Don't pin your dirty thoughts on Qingzhi!"
Little b*tch! She should have died with that b*tch, Xia Yunqiu! She made things difficult for Qingzhi in front of everyone and made Qingzhi suffer countless grievances!
Kang Jichuan frowned. He knew that Xi Xi had been wronged, but she could not vent her anger on Qingzhi!
He had misunderstood Xi Xi just now, so in order to make Xi Xi feel better, he would not speak up for Qingzhi anymore. He felt that he had already done enough.
However, Xi Xi would offend many people by doing this. At the same time, it would be difficult for her to establish herself in the perfume world. She would definitely regret her actions today in the future!
"Oh?" Qiao Xi raised her eyebrows. "Perhaps I misunderstood."
Old Madam Kang was in the right, so how could she let Qiao Xi off so easily? She shouted loudly, "Apologize to our Qingzhi immediately! Our Qingzhi is the champion for two consecutive years. Why should she be slandered by you, you wretched girl?"
Twilight's expression turned cold, and his eyes were filled with danger.
Qiao Xi was not angry in the slightest. She chuckled and said, "I can apologize, but that's only if the person who framed me isn't Kang Qingzhi."
Kang Qingzhi bit her lip aggrievedly, but she cursed Qiao Xi in her heart for being an idiot. She was the daughter of the Kang family. Why would the judges expose her?
She immediately looked at the judges, her eyes filled with warning. Zhao Xiang's heart trembled. He took a deep breath and announced loudly, "The person who reported Bright Moon is—"
Everyone's gazes shifted to Kang Qingzhi and Qiao Xi. If it were not for Kang Qingzhi, Qiao Xi would have to apologize to her in public.
"Xu Ling!"
Zhao Xiang's voice echoed in the venue, and everyone looked at Xu Ling.
Xu Ling was terrified to the point her entire body trembled, and her expression suddenly stiffened. Her eyes were still filled with resentment and smugness that had not dissipated. This was all exposed to everyone.
"You—" Her voice was hoarse, but she could not say a word. Before she could say anything, Old Madam Kang shouted impatiently, "Bright Moon! The person who reported you is Xu Ling. It has nothing to do with Qingzhi! You slandered Qingzhi in public. Kneel down and apologize to her immediately!"
Initially, Xu Ling wanted to explain herself, but Old Madam Kang's words convicted her. She could only look at Kang Qingzhi for help.
