Chapter 243: Madness
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
What did the body odor of a young girl represent?
It was an extremely pure yet seductive smell.
That should be the foundation of the perfume.
However, was there really someone who could create such a crazy fragrance?
Qin Yu’s hands trembled as she touched the button.
The blowers of the two tour buses in the distance had already started blowing, and the fragrance gradually diffused into the air. Plenty of people were attracted to the vehicles.
Qin Yu gritted her teeth, closed her eyes, and pressed the button.
She felt the fans in the car start, and the body of the car trembled slightly.
The window was open, and she could smell the fragrance of her own creation floating in the air.
It was an indescribable smell.
Pure, clean, sweet, and yet sensual.
Like a teenage girl, right as she bloomed, the raw and attractive crazy beauty.
She named this perfume Lolita.
In the distance, the people who were attracted by the extreme sweet and cool fragrance sensed something new in the air.
That smell —
It reminded the young man of the smell of his first love; the old man of his beau when he was young; and induced a sense of lust into the bodies of men and women…
The crowd seemed to have received some kind of call, and they started to walk in a certain direction together.
Qin Yu was surprised to see that it had only been five minutes, but her tour bus was already surrounded by countless people. They seemed to be in a different state, their expressions full of enjoyment and close to madness.
In the end, the tour bus had to turn off the blower to prevent more people from crowding over.
Qin Yu won with overwhelming public support.
The other two perfumers looked pale, as if they could not believe that the tourists gathered around their tour bus had run away so easily.
The man in a suit came to pick Qin Yu and the other two contestants up.
When they returned to the hall, the judges had already voted. When the tour bus stopped in the square, they started voting.
Out of the ten judges, eight of them voted for the same person —
Qin Yu.
As for the two people who did not vote for Qin Yu, one abstained, while the other suspected that Qin Yu’s perfume had been used with a hallucinogen, so the vote was given to somebody else.
Fortunately, the final chemical analysis proved that Qin Yu’s perfume did not have a hallucinogen.
Therefore, Qin Yu deserved the first place.
She had an overwhelming advantage over the second place.
Looking at the man in a suit walking over and handing her the certificate and the trophy made of pure gold, Qin Yu still found it hard to believe.
“Welcome to the World Association of Perfume, Ms. Qin Yu. As the third member of the World Perfume Association to join this century, you will receive a reward of three billion dollars and enjoy the benefits of the Association for the rest of your life. Next, the current Acting President of the World Perfume Association will invite you to print your handprint on the monument.”
Qin Yu came back to her senses and took the certificate and trophy from the man in the suit. Then she asked in a low voice, “Acting President, is it Mr. Qi Heng?”
The man in the suit seemed to be very surprised and asked in puzzlement, “Do you know the President? He hasn’t appeared in public for many years. I knew him only by his alternate name, Eric.”
Eric, a former legendary perfumer, was known by everyone in the industry, past and present.
So Eric was Qi Heng.
Qin Yu pursed her lips and kept her silence.
About five hours later, a lady came to inform Qin Yu that Qi Heng was ready.
Qi Heng had come.
Qin Yu had imagined many scenes when she saw Qi Heng. It wasn’t until she saw Qi Heng in person that all the emotions in her heart calmed down.
The man in front of her had gray hair on his temples and had deep eyes. He must’d look good when he was young.
The moment Qi Heng, who was wearing a pair of silver-rimmed glasses, saw Qin Yu, his pupils constricted.
Qin Yu noticed this change. Although Qi Heng later concealed the surprise in his eyes, Qin Yu still frowned and asked, “Do you know me?”
That expression was as if Qi Heng had treated her as a certain person.
Qi Heng smiled and shook his head. “I don’t know. This should be the first time we’ve met.”
Then, Qi Heng brought Qin Yu to a stone tablet erected at the back of Silver Mountain Garden.
There were five stone platforms under the stone tablet. Each stone platform had a handprint printed on it. Below the handprint was the personal information of the owner of the handprint.
Qin Yu walked over and saw Qi Heng’s information introduction.
“Qi Heng, Chinese, joined the World Perfume Association in 1998.”
Short and simple.
“Here you go.” Qi Heng pointed to a stone platform next to him.
The soft clay on the stone platform was still moist and malleable. Qin Yu put her hand on it and pressed down.
“Soon, there will be words carved on the bottom.. You are the second Chinese perfumer to leave her name here after me.”
