Chapter 621: Update 3
Xu Lu froze a little and her face went dark.
“Some talents should be recognized despite all the boundaries we place around ourselves!”
Xu Lu fought back, “It is true that I am the lead perfumer for the Gong Corporation, and I for sure will always take the Gong Corporation’s side, but as a perfumer, I admire those who are talented and who are successful.”
“We don’t discriminate the nationality of talents. Plus, Goddess Xu Pingting is from our own country. Only you would think poorly of that! You’re jealous when she’s being praised!”
Qiao Qing, “…”
Qiao Qing admitted defeat to Xu Lu’s verbal abilities and busied herself.
Just then, Xu Lu caught sight of a person in white and her eyes brightened, “Goddess Xu Pingting!”
Xu Pingting heard her name and walked over. With a friendly smile, she greeted, “Hello.”
Qiao Qing turned around to look and saw that the incomer wore a long white dress that reached her heels, matched with a thick knit pink cardigan.
Her brunette soft hair was in giant waves that draped down her back. The makeup on her face was flawless and delicate.
Without a doubt, she was a graceful woman who was brought up in a wealthy family.
It was obvious to see why others admired her so.
When Xu Pingting approached closer, Xu Lu instantly grinned, “Goddess Pingting, what are you doing here?”
Xu Pingting said, “The fragrance competition is happening soon. It’s time the Xu family mix things up a bit. I’m here to find some spices.”
Xu Lu’s face flashed with respect, “Goddess Pingting is so devoted! You’re starting with sourcing the ingredients?! It’s no joke that you’re a professional! This is so respectful!”
Qiao Qing, “…”
So this was the definition of a double standard.
Xu Pingting smiled at the recognition. She saw the person behind Xu Lu and asked curiously, “This is…?”
“Ah, don’t even mention her!” Xu Lu sure found a topic to talk about at the mention of Qiao Qing.
“She’s our CEO’s lover. She knows nothing, yet she demands to come here for ingredients. She says she’s here to help the company with the competition and make a brand-new product.”
“The CEO asked me to drop my work and help guide her. I declined and was scolded! I almost lost my job!”
Xu Pingting’s smile froze on her face, “Gong Yi?”
“Yes!” Xu Lu shouted, “What other CEO Gong is there? But seriously, why is CEO Gong like this? To make this girl happy, he let her play with the entire fragrance section of the business. How’s he different from CEO Hun?”
“I have my troubles but I don’t dare to say them. However, I’m sure you’re going to place first again in this year’s competition. When that time comes, you’ll show CEO Gong what kind of girl’s the best girl!”
Xu Pingting listened to this and felt like she couldn’t breathe.
Gong Yi had someone he liked?
As she thought about it, she started to check out Qiao Qing.
The girl in front of her was dressed as lowkey as a student. However, her porcelain face was so pinchable. Her all-natural and makeup-free face was absolutely stunning.
More than that, there was a mysterious and fascinating aura about her.
This observation made Xu Pingting’s heart drop.
How come she didn’t remember someone like this living here?
As she thought about it, she asked as if unintentionally, “What’s that girl’s name?”
Lu Xu said, “She said her name is Qiao Qing.”
Xu Pingting was a little surprised. That name sure sounded familiar.
