“What? Dong Lin isn’t cooperating with us anymore? Damn it, Zhu Zhen has taken so many things from me, and now he’s stabbing me from behind. How dare they!” Ning Jie threw a vase on the ground in rage.
His assistant stood aside shivering, afraid to make even the slightest sound.
“You, leave now. We’ll hold a shareholders’meeting in the afternoon.” Ning Jie chased the assistant away with an extremely ugly expression.
After his assistant left, Ning Jie hesitated for a long time before making a call.
“Hello?” A mechanical voice sounded from the other end of the phone. It was obvious that a voice changer had been used.
Ning Jie’s expression, which was just like that of a violent king, suddenly became cautious. “My company has encountered some trouble. Can we...”
“Ning Jie, the Organization is not doing charity work. Only looking for us when you’re in trouble?” The mechanical voice sneered.
Ning Jie hurriedly explained, “No, I was schemed against by Ning Chen this time and I suffered unexpected heavy losses. Moreover, if I didn’t hold Ning Chen back, wouldn’t it be easier to investigate what happened back then? Please give me another chance.”
“Are you talking terms with us?” The mechanical voice’s tone was somewhat mocking.
“I dare not,” Ning Jie said hurriedly.
“If you’re really sincere...” the mechanical voice paused for a moment and continued, “Then find the person from the past!”
Ning Jie sat on the chair dejectedly after the call was cut short.
The incident from that year happened so suddenly. In order to help the organization cover Up Ning Cheng’s death, he almost exposed himself. Now, he was asked to find the person who never appeared. This was akin to impossible!
Ning Jie reached out his hand and grabbed his sparse hair in frustration. He felt extremely hopeless.
Now, he was really at the end of his wits. The organization would never care about people who had lost their usefulness. If he wanted to save himself, he could only take the risk!
Ning Jie’s eyes gradually turned vicious.
“Ning Chen, you were the one who forced me into a dead end. Don’t blame me for being heartless!”

“Boss, Serene Orchid and Iced Plum are already in production. They’re expected to be on the shelves by the end of the month. This series of perfumes is currently our company’s best-selling perfume, occupying almost 32% of the market share. This is simply a miracle!” Even someone as calm as Ah Bei, at this moment, his tone could not help but carry a hint of excitement.
When Qin Yu heard this, she only smiled faintly.
As the creator of these legendary perfumes, she did not seem to be excited or ecstatic. It was as if everything was within her expectations.
“This first step is rather easy. The next step is to promote these perfumes internationally and form an international influence. The investment required is not small. I wonder if your father is willing to participate.”
Ah Bei nodded. “I know that. Boss, don’t underestimate my father. He didn’t set up Xiang Yun solely for the sake of making money. Our family is an aristocratic family of perfumers. It is said that my ancestors were the perfumers who served the empress dowager and the concubines in the palace. My father also wants to spread our oriental perfuming technology in this era and make it a brand of national products. Naturally, the huge capital investments isn’t much of his concern.”
Qin Yu smiled approvingly, “Then I’m relieved. I shall wait for your good news. If the results are good, then we’ll apply to participate in the international perfume festival in the middle of the year. Hopefully, we’ll be able to obtain admission tickets.”
“There won’t be any problems!” Ah Bei was full of confidence.

“How could this be, how could this be...” Tang Rou had been in a daze for several days. She sat in the laboratory at home, as if she had been possessed.
“What kind of formula is this? Why can’t I break the code?” Tang Rou, who had always been as proud as a goddess, now had disheveled hair, making her seem very nervous.
“How could there be someone with higher talent than me? Master said that I was a rare talent in fragrance making. My father also said that I could become the best fragrance maker in the world. Why? Why?”
Tang Rou muttered. Suddenly remembering something, she excitedly took out her phone and dialed the number that she had always remembered.
“Hello.” A cold voice rang out, without a trace of emotion, “Didn’t I tell you not to look for me? ! Do you know how dangerous this is? !”
Tang Rou completely ignored the rebuke in the man’s eyes and said in an excited tone: “Buy a bottle of Green Bamboo and help me take a look at it. What’s the formula for this bottle of perfume? !”
“You called me just for this?” The man on the phone was in disbelief, “Qi Rou, are you crazy? ! Have you forgotten your mission? !”
Tang Rou acted as if she couldn’t hear the man’s words and continued to plead: “Please... I need to know, you have to help me...”
“Shut up!” The man shouted. After hearing Tang Rou’s hesitant silence, the man was silent for a long time before he gritted his teeth and said: “I can help you look, but right now, you need to pull yourself together!”
