The next morning, Shen Manxi woke up to a flurry of messages. She stretched and slowly clicked on them.
[Boss, no one can handle this order. Even our top talent can't find the whitening and spot-removing combination customized by the overseas beauty industry.]
[Help! Boss, the penalty for breach of contract is 1 billion, and it's in US dollars.]
"Boss, you're the only one in the entire beauty industry who can pull this off, and you know that overseas beauty products are only made for foreign royalty. We can't tarnish the reputation of our Yinghua Famous Cosmetics."
[Boss, Boss, we're here to pick you up!!! The master arranged this!!!]
Shen Manxi frowned slightly. It was so annoying but she had to go. Her father had spoiled her for more than 20 years and she couldn't just ignore him.
Not only did she learn a lot of skills since she was a child, but most importantly, when she was fourteen years old, she was playing by the river outside the village and saved an old man who fell into the water.
The old man happened to be Mr. Xu Hua, a genius in the beauty industry. Many well-known domestic and foreign companies wanted to spend a lot of money to buy Mr. Xu's formula, but failed.
That day, Mr. Xu went up the mountain to collect raw materials for perfume and accidentally fell into the river. He was rescued by Shen Manxi, a mermaid who grew up in the water.
Xu Hua passed on all her lifelong formulas to Shen Manxi. Combined with her exceptional insight and innovation, she became a hidden powerhouse in the beauty industry. Everyone knows Tianying Cosmetics, and everyone knows the powerful figure behind Tianying, but the outside world doesn't know her name is Shen Manxi.
I'll only give you three hours, not a minute more. Also, it's one kilometer from my home, so don't reveal my identity. I'll walk here. Send me your location.
[Yes, Boss.] Qin Ran and Secretary Qin didn't dare to bother the Boss with even one more word. They knew that if they talked too much, they would risk being blocked.
There are three things you shouldn't do when chatting with your boss: don't be too long-winded, don't rush him, and don't talk about topics unrelated to work.
Otherwise, you will inevitably be blocked or deleted.
Today, she changed into the dress her aunt had flown in from abroad before she left. Two days before she left her adoptive mother's home, she received a long-distance call from her aunt.
"Wow, this is the hottest style from the Paris fashion show. Our Xixi has a great figure and outstanding looks, so your aunt bought you all six of the hottest styles from the catwalk."
"Aunt, tell me the truth, what is your relationship with this season's designer?"
"It seems that nothing can be hidden from our Xixi. Designer Wenels is my boyfriend." Zhou Lulu smiled on the other end of the phone. She knew that her daughter Manxi was very capable. Her first love in college was studying criminal investigation.
"I'm sorry to have cost you so much..."
"Oh, I met Qin Shaochuan on the streets of Paris the day before yesterday. He asked about you..."
"Uh... Auntie... My signal is not good..."
"..." A busy tone sounded. She hated the name Qin Shaochuan. Ever since she discovered he was having an affair with her classmate Huang Jia, he had resolutely left. Of course, even though he was studying criminal investigation, she still beat up the scumbag Qin Shaochuan.
Seeing her coming towards the hall in such a dazzling manner, the servants were shocked and had their own thoughts.
"At best, you're just a sparrow. You're not even qualified to become a phoenix."
"Cinderella?"
"It seems that this young lady is about to suppress the Sixth Young Lady. We have to help the Sixth Young Lady. After all, they have been master and servant for many years." Zhang Ling saw that the Fifth Young Lady was outstanding in appearance and had an extraordinary aura. She was worried that Shen Qiwen would suffer a loss.
Shen Qiwen was truly jealous. She had to admit that Shen Manxi was beautiful, and in a different way from the noble ladies she had seen. She was simply furious: "Sister, isn't this the latest dress from Paris Fashion Week? However, even a wealthy lady like Su Ximeng can't buy it. This must be a replica, right?"
The servants nodded repeatedly. There was no way the Fifth Young Lady understood fashion. They were all from the countryside, how could they have ever seen a fashion show? It was shameful. The Fifth Young Lady was trying to squeeze into high society, using any means necessary.
She looked down upon the group of people in front of her because she knew that each of them had ulterior motives.
At this moment, Shen Qiwen happened to be holding a full glass of red wine. She deliberately blocked Shen Manxi's way and took the opportunity to pour the red wine on her.
"Ah, ah..." Following screams, Shen Manxi snatched the full glass of red wine and poured it fiercely onto Shen Qiwen's blue dress.
"Sigh... Sister, I took your place, you don't have to be so picky with me... This is the skirt that Mom bought me yesterday."
Bai Jiya, who rushed over after hearing the news, immediately took out a handkerchief to wipe Shen Qiwen's skirt. As she wiped, she scolded: "If you are jealous, just say it directly. Why did you do it directly? Shen Manxi, you are too much. Apologize to Qiwen immediately."
"Mom... wuwuwu... Although this is my favorite skirt, let's forget it!" Protected by her mother, she cried even harder on purpose, tears streaming down her face.
Seeing Shen Qiwen so sad, Bai Jiya directly dragged Shen Manxi over to admit her mistake.
Shen Manxi grabbed Bai Jiya's hand with her left hand and then stayed in the air for dozens of minutes. Her eyes were sharp: "Don't use the attitude of an elder to pressure me. I don't owe you anything. This is not my fault. You are Madam Shen, but you can't distinguish right from wrong. I will not admit my mistake today."
"You... my poor Minmin, how could she have ever suffered such an injustice since she was a child? Everyone has cherished and protected her since she was a child, but today she is being bullied by my own flesh and blood. Where is justice?" Bai Jiya looked at Shen Manxi fiercely. She really wanted to slap her a few times. But just now, she tried, and Shen Manxi was quite capable.
"Bah! Bullshit justice! From childhood to adulthood, when I was bullied by other kids, where were you, Mrs. Shen? From childhood to adulthood, when I cried out to mom, "I want new clothes," and when I wanted to attend a parent-teacher conference, where were you? You have no right to ask me to apologize, and I don't need to apologize. Remember, it's too late now. You have no right to lecture me."
"Chen Manxi..." Bai Jiya was so angry that her face turned blue, but Shen Manxi had already walked out of the hall gracefully, and Shen Qiwen understood the look her mother gave her.
She chased after him, intending to give up, but she was stunned by what she saw.
Shen Manxi was respectfully invited by two black-clad bodyguards into a limited edition Rolls-Royce.
This was nothing. When she looked at the license plate, her eyes almost popped out.
Only the top wealthy families in the entire imperial capital can have such license plates. Who is Shen Manxi?
"No, it's impossible. It must be fake. Only a country girl like her can do such a thing as counterfeiting. Bah! You just know how to pretend. One day, I will definitely let you taste the consequences of going against me." Shen Qiwen threw stones at the speeding luxury car.
But Zhang Ling, who arrived shortly after, hugged her from behind: "Qi Wen, no..."
"Auntie Zhang, stay away from me. Don't you know who you are?"
