Chapter 673 - Update 55
The line of perfumers stepped back while Xu Lu stayed put. Qiao Qing walked up to him, “Me.”
The judge asked again, “What’s your name?”
Qiao Qing said calmly, “Qiao Qing.”
Xu Pingting watched over the judge’s face and frowned slightly. The smile disappeared from her face.
His reaction wasn’t an angry one.
The next second, the judge nodded, put down the perfume, took off his employee badge, and left his seat in a hurry.
Everyone froze for a second before they bursted into thunderous laughter.
“Ahahahaha! No way! The judge is so pissed he quit?”
“I’ve never seen a judge leave in a rage all these years!”
“Could it be that the perfume hurt his stomach and he went to the washroom? Look at how much of a rush he was in. Ahahahha...”
“Just how bad does her perfume smell? I’m so curious I want to try it out.”
Xu Pingting gently coughed to conceal her laughter. She was worried for no reason.
Qi Yusen and Jun Yexuan’s faces could not be simply described as ugly at this point.
The rest of the judges didn’t touch Qiao Qing’s perfume. They wrote down a score and then took away all the perfumes from the Gong Corporation.
The MC stepped up, “Alright, we have 2 teams left. Please welcome number 38, Li Na!”
To ensure they do not disturb the competitors, everyone quieted down. But they all glared at Qiao Qing with mockery.
Qiao Qing took back her perfume and Jun Yexuan hugged her. His heart ached, “It’s okay. This competition doesn’t matter. After it’s done, I’ll take you out to relax.”
Qiao Qing, “...”
Qi Yusen, “Why don’t we go back now. We’ll skip the second round.”
Qiao Qing, “...”
She stepped away from Jun Yexuan’s hug and coughed, “Can’t you think more kindly of me? Maybe it’s because my perfume smelled so good that the judge went out in excitement.”
She then put up her perfume towards Jun Yexuan’s face, “You don’t believe me? Smell it.”
Jun Yexuan, “...”
Qi Yusen, “...”
Gong Yi, “...”
Everyone thought Qiao Qing was joking and so naturally, they didn’t smell it. Since Qiao Qing didn’t want to leave, they sat back in their chairs in the waiting area.
By the time everyone had displayed their product, the judge who left still didn’t return.
The MC said, “Alright, the first round is over. Everyone can go back and take a rest. Our thirteen -, uh, twelve judges will discuss the results for this round.”
The judges then picked up their notes, as well as the notes from the judge who left and went to a private room to discuss.
When they stepped into the room, they froze. Because the judge who left, Zhang Heng, was sitting inside.
One of the judges asked, “Director Zhang, why are you here? We were about to call you.”
“Huh? You’re holding onto... ‘Wild Green’? You still have a bottle? I’ve used up mine.”
Zhang Heng stood up and said to the group, “Did you guys test out that girl’s perfume?”
