Chapter 29: The Perfumer
Suddenly, I thought of Xiang Wan's abnormal behavior several times, and how he stayed up most of the night and appeared in the kitchen desperately drinking water.
"You said before that Xiangdong and the shareholders of Xiangshi Group had an agreement that you must get married and start a family before you can inherit Xiangshi Group. Is it because of this disease?" Ji Zhoubai asked.
"Well," Xiang Wan nodded, "They are afraid that my unstable mood will be detrimental to the Xiang Group."
Ji Zhoubai was silent for a while, returned the medicine, and looked back, "Their consideration is right."
Xiang Wan smiled bitterly, "Do you also think I'm hopeless? Emotional instability is a scary thing, right?"
Ji Zhoubai lowered his eyes and did not answer. The atmosphere in the carriage was frighteningly quiet.
After a while, Ji Zhoubai leaned over and suddenly his body was very close to Xiang Wan.
Xiang Wan was startled, "What are you doing..."
"Fasten your seat belt and go home." Ji Zhoubai remained expressionless, reaching out to pull her seat belt and fasten it, and glanced at her, "What are you thinking about that you shouldn't be thinking about?"
"How can I not!" Xiang Wan immediately denied it. Although he felt a little guilty, after all, an almost perfect face suddenly appeared in front of him, and no one could be completely free from distractions.
Ji Zhoubai didn't start the car immediately. He thought of something and suddenly handed something to Xiang Wan - a transparent bottle with a hint of orange, exquisite design and very high quality.
"What?" Xiang Wan asked.
"Perfume, given to you."
"Ah?" Xiang Wan didn't understand why he suddenly gave her something. She opened the bottle cap and smelled it.
It has a nice woody scent. The collision of cinnamon and amber gives it a heavy feeling, followed by a sweet aftertaste of citrus. The fragrance progresses layer by layer and is very rich.
"Is this a new product from Naiqi Perfume?" Xiang Wan asked.
"No, this is a model that I failed to adjust, and I have no intention of selling it."
"The blend failed?" Xiang Wan was surprised, "This is a perfume that can be used as the flagship product of other companies, but you failed to blend it?"
The meaning behind her tone is: You are so powerful? How could you be so powerful?
Ji Zhoubai understood what she meant, and his expression became obviously cold, "Why, I'm not worthy?"
"No, no," Xiang Wan waved his hands repeatedly, "I'm praising you for being awesome."
Of course Ji Zhoubai understood what she meant, and this was not a compliment at all.
But he didn't care, "This bottle of perfume is just a test product of mine and has not been mass-produced. You can take it back and use it yourself or spray it in the toilet, it's up to you."
Speaking of this, Xiang Wan didn't dare to refute, and said quickly: "Since it is a unique thing in the world, of course I have to keep it well. Don't worry, I won't use it or spray the toilet, so I will keep it."
At the end, she added: "This is the first gift you gave me. It's a commemorative gift, so I have to keep it well."
This sentence is more useful than all the explanations just given.
Ji Zhoubai's expression obviously softened a lot, he snorted lightly and said no more sarcastic words.
Xiang Wan secretly breathed a sigh of relief and glanced at Ji Zhoubai out of the corner of his eye, still feeling a little confused.
She liked the smell of this bottle of perfume very much, it was elegant and textured, but it really didn't fit the image of Ji Zhoubai in her mind.
I imagine that the perfumer behind such a scent should be an elegant and warm person, wearing gold-rimmed glasses and speaking slowly and gently.
Not Ji Zhoubai, a cruel and cold guy.
Xiang Wan suddenly realized that the man she married was really good at making perfume. He was really the president of Naiqi Perfume, the leader in the perfume industry.
It was just such a fragmented image that confused her.
