As for her words, the Mi Family’s reaction was not very intense.

"Let me smell it," Grandfather Mi, compared to a month ago, seemed like a completely different person, his whole being glowing with health.

He Lanxing calmly handed her perfume over to Grandfather Mi.

Grandfather Mi opened it and took a sniff but didn’t speak immediately; instead, he passed the perfume to Ye Shaohua, "Shaohua, you have a look."

He Lanxing’s brow slightly furrowed at Grandfather Mi’s action, though it was nearly imperceptible.

Ye Shaohua had actually caught the scent the moment Grandfather Mi took it. It was indeed a new type of fragrance; if it had been before, it might have had some effect on Grandfather Mi, but now, this perfume was almost no different from the common ones outside.

She barely perceptibly shook her head at Grandfather Mi.

Grandfather Mi had his answer. He put away the perfume and ordered the butler to pay the He Family, but he didn’t promise anything to the Mi Family.

"How did it go, did the Mi Family say anything?" Upon returning, He Lanxing’s parents crowded around her, asking eagerly.

Their tone was somewhat anxious.

Indeed, there was reason to be anxious.

In the past month, YD Brand perfumes had swept through Y Country with force and then invaded the domestic market, becoming beloved by everyone at home.

The internet was abuzz with miraculous claims, talking about visible improvements in insomnia and cold body syndrome.

This led to the He Family’s orders dropping day by day, and their position as the market leader was now at risk. The He Family had not failed in sending people to inquire about the origins of these Y conglomerates.

After all, they had been in Imperial City for so many years and knew some people in the right circles. However, those whom the He Family hired to investigate were terrified even before they began looking into it, promptly returning the deposits and refusing to take the job.

This was another reason for the He Family’s concern.

What kind of power could scare even the criminals?

That’s why He Lanxing quickly crafted a new perfume and showed it to the Mi Family, as the He Family desperately needed the Mi Family’s influence now.

They didn’t expect the Mi Family’s reaction to be like this.

He Lanxing shook her head, "Nothing."

These words visibly disappointed the He Family members.

"Never mind, Lanxing, prepare for the perfume exchange at the school tomorrow," Mother He changed her expression to one of warmth and looked gently at He Lanxing, "After all, our He Family’s reputation is still intact; as long as we establish our brand, it will be fine."

He Lanxing evidently also placed great importance on this matter. Hearing this, she didn’t dwell on the Mi Family anymore and went back to her room.

Once He Lanxing left, the expressions of the He Family members became much more serious.

The patriarch had always valued He Lanxing a great deal. Hearing news from various sources, he couldn’t help but look towards Father He, "Didn’t the young master from the Mi Family have a good relationship with Lanxing when they were young?"

That was why they had sent He Lanxing to negotiate.

With the Mi Family’s support, who in Imperial City would dare not show respect to the He Family?

"I don’t know, I’ll ask Lanxing again after tomorrow," Father He also furrowed his brows.

"What about Ye Shaohua?" The patriarch inquired further.

Father He was taken aback at the mention of Ye Shaohua, then he remembered whom the patriarch was referring to, "She attends the same school as Lanxing."

As for any other details, Father He wasn’t very aware.

But the other members of the He Family evidently weren’t interested; now that they had He Lanxing, that was almost enough, with everyone’s focus on her and even Father He having to step aside.

"Good, I’ll go tomorrow and meet her," the patriarch thought for a moment, "after all, she’s one of our He Family."

Father He nodded indifferently.

**

This perfume exchange was highly significant, set to take place at Imperial University.

Renowned perfumers from all over the world would be there.

The spots were limited.

"Shaohua, I heard you and Senior He are half-sisters with the same father," the three dormmates turned to Ye Shaohua as she returned with a bag in hand, and Xun Jiujiu spoke first, "Is that true?"

Somehow the news had spread, and it was no longer a secret.

Ye Shaohua glanced at her, then nodded, "That’s right."

Tian Jing, on the other side, exchanged a look with another person upon hearing this answer, "Then why hasn’t the He Family acknowledged you yet? Have you heard? Lin Ying from your department was recognized as an adopted daughter by your biological father, and you’re his biological daughter..."

At first, the trio hadn’t believed the news.

After all, the He Family was a family that even Xun Jiujiu couldn’t flatter enough to please.

But the rumor was substantiated around the School, even confirmed by He Lanxing herself.

Xun Jiujiu looked at the counterfeit phone in Ye Shaohua’s hand, her feelings complex.

"I don’t want to go back, any more questions?" Ye Shaohua packed two books, ready to head to the Auditorium. Upon hearing the question, she turned her head and glanced at Xun Jiujiu.

Xun Jiujiu immediately stepped back, not daring to say anything.

Only after Ye Shaohua left with her two books and small bag did Xun Jiujiu recover, throwing her lipstick onto the desk, "What’s there to be arrogant about."

"Jiujiu," Tian Jing reminded her gently.

Xun Jiujiu wasn’t the least bit fazed, snorting, "What’s there to be afraid of? Don’t treat her like a Young Lady for real. Who in our circle doesn’t know her messy story? You probably don’t know, but she’s actually the biological daughter of He Lanxing’s mother, while He Lanxing is nothing but an illegitimate daughter."

"Then why?" Tian Jing and the others widened their eyes.

"Because of He Lanxing’s talent. They say that at three years old, she could already distinguish extremely subtle scents. Now, even more so as the chief perfumer. The He Family, wishing not to disturb He Lanxing’s emotions, naturally wouldn’t let her go back home. I heard even the He Family patriarch doesn’t want to see her for a second."

This was a piece of gossip known only within certain circles. Upon hearing it, Tian Jing and the others exchanged glances, both seeing a hint of sympathy and pity in each other’s eyes.

"I see, Jiujiu, you know so much," Tian Jing and the other girl immediately clung to Xun Jiujiu’s arm, "Let’s go to the Auditorium. I heard today’s the perfume exchange meeting."

With that, the three girls went downstairs together.

Xun Jiujiu listened with composure to her roommates’ flattery.

Meanwhile, Ye Shaohua had already arrived at the Auditorium.

She had barely taken a few steps when a grim-looking man in black stopped her, "Our boss wants to see you."
