Chapter 290 One of a Kind in the World, Not Even Qualified to Meet Him [3rd Update]
Fu Mingcheng asked himself honestly, and he really didn't like Fu Yunshen at all.
The whole of Shanghai knew about Old Master Fu's favoritism.
Not to mention Fu Yichen, even Fu Mingcheng still can't understand why, even after that incident twenty years ago, Old Master Fu is still so good to Fu Yunshen.
Fu Mingcheng glanced at the time and saw that he still had ten minutes before his meeting with Manager Biman, so he simply walked out.
Fu Yunshen walked straight towards the elevator without glancing to either side.
Fu Mingcheng frowned even more deeply and called out, "Fu Yunshen."
Fu Yunshen paused, stopped, and turned his head slightly.
His pupils were light amber, and under the sunlight, they no longer had their usual laziness, but rather a touch of coldness.
Fu Mingcheng strode in and lowered his voice: "Can't you do something productive? Your grandfather has such high expectations for you, and all you do all day is play. Aren't you breaking his heart?"
Old Master Fu has been far too indulgent towards Fu Yunshen.
Although the Fu family is not descended from a military family, Old Master Fu was a soldier and was very strict and demanding in everything he did.
Fu Mingcheng and his siblings also received elite education from a young age.
There's a reason why the Fu family has consistently held the top position among the four most powerful families.
It's a pity that the Fu family produced a Fu Yunshen.
Fu Yunshen put one hand in his pocket and nodded slightly: "For Grandpa's sake, I'll listen to you finish speaking."
"You—" Fu Mingcheng held his breath and decided to get straight to the point, "Your grandfather is going to give Yuxiangfang to you, do you know that?"
"You don't understand perfumery, let alone fragrance. If it's just about money, I can sign a contract with you. You give me Yuxiangfang, and I'll give you 2% of the Fu Group's shares. You can keep getting money. But if Yuxiangfang is in your hands, what can you do? You'll just squander it all."
Fu Mingcheng shook his head and said coldly, "Yuxiangfang is the Fu family's century-old foundation. If you squander it all, how will you face your grandfather?"
The perfumer who designed the new perfume balm and perfume for Yuxiangfang was someone he hired.
Otherwise, Yu Xiang Fang wouldn't even have caught Bi Man's eye.
He couldn't bring himself to give all the benefits to Fu Yunshen.
Fu Yunshen curled his lips into a smile, reverting to his lazy demeanor: "Finished?"
Fu Mingcheng's face darkened: "You're not willing?"
As he spoke, he glanced at the time again: "I don't have time to talk to you anymore. I have to go see Biman's manager now. If you really care about your grandfather, find a job instead of idling around all day."
After Fu Mingcheng finished speaking, he didn't bother with Fu Yunshen anymore and returned to Biman's physical store.
Fu Yunshen slowly raised his eyelashes, glanced at the two characters "Biman" above the shop entrance, and seemed to be deep in thought.
He turned around and then took the elevator.
Last month, Fu Yunshen specially commissioned Biman's headquarters to customize a perfume.
It is unique in the world.
He intended to give it to his child.
Although Biman is a major European beauty brand, it actually follows the cosmeceutical route.
Different types of perfumes have different functions.
Even the most basic one can nourish and protect your skin.
This is why Biman has been able to lead the world's perfume trend.
Biman's perfume balm was also displayed in Mr. Fu's study and bedroom.
Fu Yunshen lowered his eyes, watching the changing numbers on the elevator screen, and then smiled.
After all, their child sometimes doesn't take care of her health, so giving her a perfume that can improve her health would be a great choice.

This way.
After Fu Mingcheng met with Bi Man's manager, the two went to the office inside the shop.
Fu Mingcheng treated the manager very well, even with extra respect: "Look, these are the perfumes and balms that our Royal Fragrance Workshop has newly developed."
He took a small bottle and a small round box out of his briefcase.
The manager took it, smelled it, and then tested it with the machine next to him.
Fu Mingcheng watched his movements, his Adam's apple bobbing, a little nervous: "What do you think?"
"A century-old incense shop, indeed quite good." The manager smiled and returned the bottle and box to Fu Mingcheng. "Congratulations, Mr. Fu, you have passed the initial test. As for whether we can reach a final cooperation agreement, we'll have to wait another half month."
"Biman will choose the best one among the four companies, so please make some preparations."
Fu Mingcheng breathed a sigh of relief and nodded, "I understand."
He thought for a moment and then asked, "I just heard from the employees outside that the CEO will be coming over today. I wonder if I would have the honor of meeting him?"
Biman was already someone he could only look up to, let alone the entire Venus Group.
"The CEO?" The manager was taken aback, but quickly realized, "Why would the CEO come directly to the store? He should be upstairs, with someone to receive him."
"Moreover, even if the CEO comes to the store, he won't say it outright; he might even pretend to be a customer and buy something."
The manager shook his head and smiled: "That's why those people outside are so scared. What if the client they're meeting is the CEO?"
Biman's Shanghai branch also received the news from headquarters that the CEO of Venus Group needed a custom-made perfume.
He happened to be in Shanghai, so he came to pick it up.
Those who can receive the CEO are people sent by the Biman O Continent headquarters.
As a store manager for the Asia-Pacific region, he doesn't even have the right to meet the CEO.
Fu Mingcheng's expression stiffened for a moment before he managed a smile: "I see. I was just overthinking it, thinking I would get to see the CEO."
“It’s not impossible.” The manager stood up, saw him out, and said, “Biman is highly valued by the head office. If your company can finally reach a cooperation agreement with Biman, the CEO will surely come to inspect it in person.”

On top of the Maserati.
Ying Zijing leaned back in her chair and waited for fifteen minutes before Fu Yunshen returned.
He was also carrying an elegant gift bag.
Ying Zijin turned her head and saw the two characters "Biman" on it.
She knew about the company, Biman.
On the first day she met Xiuyu, Xiuyu gave her a thorough explanation of this beauty and perfume brand.
Biman releases a limited edition perfume every month.
This limited edition perfume is limited to only 5,000 units sold worldwide at a time.
It's not something you can get just by being fast or having money; Xiu Yu complained about it to her for a long time.
"It's only fair to reciprocate." Fu Yunshen opened the car door. "Here you go, little one."
Ying Zijing took the gift bag, took out a box from it, and opened it.
The box contained eight perfumes, each one different.
Her eyes flickered.
Because of her profession, her nose has always been sensitive to medicinal herbs.
Just by smelling them, Ying Zijin could tell that these perfumes contained very rare medicinal herbs that were very beneficial to the body.
Even Biman could not possibly mass-produce these eight perfumes.
It can only be custom-made.
Moreover, these rare medicinal herbs are not easy to find.
Ying Zijing sighed softly and put the box away.
She looked at the greenery outside the window, and after a few seconds, she suddenly spoke: "Brother, have you ever thought that birth, aging, sickness, and death are common occurrences in life?"
Upon hearing this, Fu Yunshen's smile faded from his peach blossom eyes, and he fell silent.
He knew what Ying Zijin meant by those words, and he could also tell that Old Master Fu's mental state had been poor lately.
This feeling of unease isn't actually due to poor health.
Fu Yunshen couldn't quite describe the feeling.
But he could sense that Old Master Fu was getting further and further away from him.
Therefore, he also transferred Yunwu back from outside, so that Yunwu and Yunshan could secretly protect Old Master Fu together.
Fu Yun knew that the Fu family was indeed eager for Old Master Fu to leave, but no one would dare to make any underhanded moves.
“Perhaps that day will come,” Fu Yunshen smiled and said softly, “but I hope it will come later.”
Even though he had prepared for this several years ago.
Being prepared and being able to accept are two different things.
Fu Yunshen didn't say anything more and started the car.
**
That evening, at the Fu family's residence.
Fu Mingcheng was still busy with the collaboration between Yuxiangfang and Biman when Madam Fu returned.
She went out for tea with other ladies today.
Although Mrs. Fu did not go to work, this kind of social interaction was equally important.
Madam Fu took off her coat, walked over, and asked gently, "Mingcheng, how did today go?"
"It went very smoothly." Fu Mingcheng rarely showed a smile. "Biman is very satisfied with our product and is just waiting for the final test. I am confident that Yuxiangfang will be the final winner."
"That's good." Madam Fu nodded and smiled. "Finally, some good news."
Fu Mingcheng's expression darkened: "But I ran into that kid again today. I tried to reason with him, but he was still acting like a spoiled brat and didn't appreciate it at all."
"Is Yun Shen unwilling to give you Yu Xiang Fang?" Madam Fu sighed. "Never mind, let's talk about this later. The old man is still fine, we can't be too ruthless."
Just as Fu Mingcheng was about to say something, his phone rang.
The ringtone was shrill, as if urging something on.
Fu Mingcheng was very impatient and answered without even looking at the caller ID: "Hello?"
His expression changed after hearing just one sentence.
Madam Fu noticed his expression and immediately had a bad feeling: "What's wrong?"
"Dad's at the hospital." Fu Mingcheng put down his phone and quickly started getting dressed. "Quick, get the car ready!"
