Chapter 217: Cheng Wan often brings An'an to see you

The grievances between Wen Suxue and Katherine are, truth be told, quite ordinary.

Wen Suxue had great talent, Old Master Fang was biased, and Katherine was unconvinced, wanting to compete for first place in everything; their relationship was harmonious on the surface, but they were like fire and water in private.

Later, Wen Suxue left, and Katherine went abroad.

Very soon, Katherine made a name for herself internationally.

As Old Master Fang spoke, he gave a cold huff, "She learned Oriental Perfume from me, yet she forgot her roots and packaged what she learned as Western things."

So, when Qin Yun Shu appeared with Katherine's perfume and hoped for him to appraise it, he did not give Qin Yun Shu any face.

Foreign countries emphasize research, matching scents according to perfume molecules, and emphasize the theory of chemical structural changes.

But Old Master Fang does not think so; he believes the potential of a scent is infinite, and even if it is the same thing, as long as the amounts are different, they can collide to create a different scent.

Often, a difference of a fraction can result in a different outcome.

This is where the joy of being a Perfumer lies.

Every bottle of perfume is different.

If everything were quantified, what joy would there be in perfumery?

"Although she says she wants to return to settle down, for now, she is leading a foreign team to compete." Old Master Fang patted Cheng Wan's arm heavily, "This time, you and Fang Yiwen must not lose face for me."

Cheng Wan understood; Old Master Fang wanted her and Fang Yiwen to both enter the competition.

She naturally would not refuse.

Old Master Fang was very satisfied, "Wanwan, don't have any psychological pressure; after all, many people from our country are participating in this competition, and I think they won't let people bully us right at our doorstep."

Cheng Wan did not have any psychological pressure; she was just thinking about another matter.

"Wanwan?" Old Master Fang saw her lost in thought and called her name, "What's wrong?"

Cheng Wan shook her head, "Nothing."

She helped Old Master Fang back to the living room.

Fang Yiwen did not know who he was talking to on the phone, but his expression was somewhat unpleasant.

Old Master Fang asked him what was wrong.

Fang Yiwen gritted his teeth and said, "Two people from our research and development department have resigned."

Although, his intuition was that it had to do with Katherine.

Those two people were key technical personnel in research and development.

The loss for Lingxiang was quite significant.

Old Master Fang nodded with understanding, "It must be her doing."

"Just because I rejected her?" Fang Yiwen simply could not understand.

Cheng Wan was more open-minded; her company currently had no one in research and development, and all perfume samples were handled by her personally.

It was just that Katherine's behavior was a bit disgusting.

"It doesn't matter; people who cannot be kept will leave sooner or later," Cheng Wan comforted Fang Yiwen, "Besides, you can step up yourself."

Fang Yiwen had been influenced by the perfume knowledge around Old Master Fang, so he would not be bad.

Fang Yiwen knew that, he was just angry.

Old Master Fang said, "You two should put your minds on the competition first."

Cheng Wan agreed, and after chatting for a while longer, she left the Fang Family.

But not long after her car left, it was intercepted by someone.

Katherine invited her to sit at a nearby coffee shop.

Cheng Wan looked at those two tall and sturdy bodyguards and could only agree.

At the coffee shop, Cheng Wan ordered a glass of plain water.

Katherine stirred her coffee with a gentle smile on her lips, though that smile was somewhat ill-intentioned.

"I really didn't expect that she had already passed away," she sighed, appearing melancholy.

Cheng Wan lowered her eyes, watching Katherine act.

"I heard you have great talent; are you interested in following me?" Katherine narrowed her eyes, "Just three years, and I can make you famous internationally."

Which Perfumer would not want to be famous throughout the world?

This was Katherine's confidence.

Cheng Wan took a sip of plain water; she had previously lamented that her company only had one Perfumer, so there was no possibility of being poached.

Now, Katherine had come to poach her.

"Aren't you planning to settle down after returning to the country?" Cheng Wan asked in surprise.

Katherine smiled faintly, "Foreign countries and the domestic scene are the same; what matters is the person, not the place."

She cherished talent, so she took the initiative to recruit Cheng Wan.

"Consider it? Will we be friends or rivals in the future?"

Cheng Wan sat up slightly, "Thank you for your kindness, but I think I prefer being alone."

Katherine frowned, "What Old Master Fang promised you, I can also give."

She thought it was because of something Old Master Fang said that Cheng Wan refused to agree to her.

Cheng Wan stood up, ready to leave, "He didn't promise me anything; it is I who hope to compete with you."

Her tone was cold enough, and firm enough.

She was issuing a challenge.

Katherine was stunned for a moment, the corners of her mouth curling into a look of disdain, "Cheng Wan, you think too highly of yourself."

It had been a long time since she had encountered such a rude junior.

Cheng Wan did not comment and left directly.

Katherine's gaze was gloomy; since it had come to this, she would make Cheng Wan understand that some gaps were destined from the start.

Cheng Wan did not take this matter to heart; she continued to run between the company and the Yiyuan, returning at night to take care of the child.

Fortunately, a few days later, Chu Li woke up.

At this moment, Cheng Wan was reading a story to Cheng An'an in a low voice.

Her voice was gentle as always, and the child's tender voice would ring out from time to time, asking all sorts of strange questions.

Cheng Wan was very patient, answering them one by one.

Chu Li looked at the ceiling; he could not bear to disturb this scene.

It was not until the nurse came in to hang his IV drip that she discovered he was awake and hurried off to call the doctor.

Cheng Wan was stunned for a moment, then took Cheng An'an by the hand and stepped forward.

Cheng An'an stared at Chu Li curiously, "Uncle, does it hurt?"

Chu Li's face was pale, but there was a gentle smile on his lips; he struggled to raise his hand to stroke An'an's head, "It doesn't hurt."

Cheng An'an pursed her lips tightly.

The doctor and Madam Chu came over together.

The doctor left after finishing the examination.

Madam Chu's eyes were red, "During this time, Wanwan often brought the child to see you."

She attributed Chu Li's waking up to Cheng Wan and Cheng An'an.

Chu Li's lips moved, "You have worked hard."

Cheng Wan gripped An'an's hand tightly and said calmly, "It is only right; after all, you were injured because of me."

Moreover, it was also to save her that his leg had become infected.

Cheng Wan no longer had any feelings for Chu Li, but that did not mean she was ungrateful.

"It's good that you're awake; An'an and I will come to see you again tomorrow." Cheng Wan pulled An'an away.

Madam Chu was sad, "It was all my fault; I shouldn't have blocked you two from being together in the first place."

Chu Li gave a bitter smile.

His leg still hurt, but at least he was awake and could still see Cheng Wan and An'an.

That was enough.

Madam Chu talked about what Chu Yue and Chu Bolin had done, adding fuel to the fire and complaining bitterly, especially about how they had bullied Cheng Wan.

If it hadn't been for Cheng Han and Assistant Wu arriving in time, Cheng Wan would definitely have been hurt.

Chu Li's brows darkened, "I will handle it."

Madam Chu felt sorry for him just waking up, so she did not continue.

Chu Li woke up, and the examinations took half a day; only after confirming there were no problems did Madam Chu completely set her mind at ease.

When Assistant Wu came in, she took the initiative to step out.

Assistant Wu was quite surprised, "Madam has really changed a lot."
