Although she had participated in many perfume-making processes, she had never been officially qualified to allow a product of hers to become a product of Aroman.

Jiang Shaomin said mysteriously, “Bailu has amazing talent, but she also has many secrets that make me very curious. Of course, if you can find something, then it will give you a breakthrough.”

He could feel that Bailu was a little wary of his approach, so he had to find another way to dig out her secrets.

Elina was overjoyed. She thought that Jiang Shaomin had arranged for her to work alongside Bailu because he trusted her.

“Don’t worry, President Jiang! If I find anything, I will definitely tell you! Thank you, President Jiang, for your trust!”

She moved closer to Jiang Shaomin, her eyes were shy. Her hand touched his chest gently, but he shook it off.

Elina withdrew her hand awkwardly, took a deep breath, and turned away arrogantly. She then went to Bailu.

“You’re lucky. If it weren’t for the company’s urgent need to launch a new product, I wouldn’t have come to help you. Don’t think that you can really order me around like an assistant.”

Bailu looked at her somewhat inexplicably. However, it was related to the launch of a product, so she still politely cooperated with her.

When it came to the raw materials, Elina frowned and asked, “Where did the Moon-Tip flower… Night-Soul flower come from?”

Elina had never heard of such plants before.

She had heard of the Moon-Tip flower as she knew that President Jiang had found it and was secretly cultivating it. However, the production was still unstable, so how could he let her use it?

Bailu saw her doubt and answered lightly, “President Jiang has already approved of my perfume. There is no doubt about the raw materials. I know where to get the raw materials for these flowers. I will be responsible for communicating with the raw material merchant.”

As she kept mentioning President Jiang, it sounded like a demonstration to the sensitive Elina. After Bailu looked at her with a cold face, she immediately went to President Jiang’s office to complain that the raw materials she used did not meet their standards.

“Who knows what the Night-Soul flower is? How can Aroman’s perfume be made using plants from unknown sources? And the Moon-Tip flower, that was clearly cultivated by your people, has she seen it before? She dares to say that her perfume already has it. It’s really hilarious!”

A dark light flashed in Jiang Shaomin’s eyes. He was very interested in the Night-Soul flower, but he still maintained a calm attitude. Instead, he picked up the blueprint and design of Bailu’s perfume. He even told Elina about the new product launch date!

“This… the date hasn’t even been officially determined yet, President Jiang. Why would you decide to let her perfume launch?”

Elina was flabbergasted.

“Since you know, then act immediately and finish it within the date that I just said.”

Jiang Shaomin did not seem to have any doubts about Bailu’s ingredients. 

“Since she said that she’s in charge, then leave it to her.”

In reality, the factory did receive a batch of raw materials from Bailu, but it was not fresh flowers. Instead, it was the extracted liquid of the Moon-Tip flower and Night-Soul flower that had already been processed.

The true face of the raw materials merchant and the source of the fresh flowers were still a secret.

Under the supervision of Bailu, bottle after bottle of perfumes that had a wonderful smell was produced.

Although the results had been obtained, the process was inevitably intriguing.

Elina was unwilling to let go. Even after receiving the quality inspection report, she still did not give up. She had repeatedly contacted many organizations to test it.

Finally, she discovered the aphrodisiac and mind-confusing effects of the Night-Soul flower.

“President Jiang! How can we put such a perfume with unknown risks on the shelves for consumers to buy?”

She spoke with sincerity. Her self-righteous and professional attitude made several of her former fans agree with her. They all accused the new perfumer of treating the perfume as a joke.

Jiang Shaomin read the report carefully, and a familiar image appeared in his mind.

Bailu was writhing on the white bed, moaning, and he smelled a hot fragrance. Then, his blood boiled, and the two of them seemed to have intertwined.

He closed the report and looked at Bailu with a half-smile. 

“Aren’t you going to defend yourself? Tell me directly whether the Night-Soul flower has aphrodisiac effects or not.”

The question in his heart needed to be verified.

After seeing President Jiang’s reaction that was neither cold nor indifferent whilst showing a bit of toughness, Elina smiled complacently. She thought that he was going to punish her.
