“It’s impossible for there to be formaldehyde; I know my own perfume formulations the best,” Shen Ning passionately defended herself.

However, under the joint accusations of Shen Mei and Wu Lili, it was evident that all those women now believed them. Their favorability towards Shen Ning had plummeted.

Yet, they didn’t swarm around Shen Ning as they did during the promotion because there was still one of Beijing’s most prestigious men present—Li Zhen ting!

He had remained silent all along, sitting there like an imposing deity, exerting an overwhelming presence that prevented anyone from daring to trouble Shen Ning. After all, he had convened this tea gathering, and they had all come here on his account. Naturally, no one would dare to ruin his event. Offending him might jeopardize their husbands’ businesses, making it difficult for them to continue in Beijing.

However, Wu Lili was different.

She hadn’t been among the invited guests, and she had attached herself to Shen Mei, who was about to marry Li Zhenting. So, she counted on Shen Mei. Thus, she had nothing to fear.

“Shen Ning, don’t bother defending yourself anymore. Even if they spare you today, 1 won’t. Your behavior is just too despicable,” Wu Lili came forward and gave Shen Ning a hard shove.

Shen Ning stumbled backward.

Suddenly, a robust arm reached out from behind to steady her.

“Who do you think you are? Dare pushing someone in public?” Jing Chenxi, one arm around Shen Ning, pointed at Wu Lili with stern anger in his voice. His eyes flashed with determination, exuding an imposing aura.

Wu Lili was startled when she saw him. She had been so focused on Li Zhenting that she hadn’t noticed him since he arrived.

From the looks of it, he was quite friendly with Shen Ning.

She didn’t dare to confront Jing Chenxi head-on. After all, Shao’s Group relied on investments from Jing’s Group for several of its businesses.

She shrank back, becoming noticeably shorter. Her face bore a fawning smile as she said, “Mr. Jing, hello.”

“Get lost,” Jing Chenxi didn’t give her an ounce of face, not even basic courtesy between a man and a woman. He bellowed angrily in front of everyone.

Wu Lili’s face turned ashen, as Jing’s Group’s Young Master Jing, known for his gentle and elegant demeanor, was currently shouting at her. He showed no mercy at all.

She slinked away.

“Everyone, the testing team will arrive shortly. Please be patient. Regardless of the situation, we need to rely on evidence. If there are doubts today, let’s uncover the truth. If it turns out that Gu Qi perfumes are indeed toxic, we won’t condone it. However, if they are proven safe, I hope everyone will continue to have faith in Gu Qi and in the new formula developed by Shen Ning. Of course, if anyone dares to intentionally disrupt this gathering and spread rumors, please help ensure they are held accountable for their unethical behavior,” Jing Chenxi took the wireless microphone from Shen Ning and spoke clearly and loudly.

The venue immediately stabilized.

Everyone sat down quietly again.

Shen Mei’s face turned pale.

Following that, Jing Chenxi enlarged Shen Ning’s perfume expert qualification certificate and a series of awards on the LED screen.

The women in the audience watched attentively, their faces filled with admiration.

Not long after, several market quality inspection personnel wearing white uniforms entered.

Under their professional testing methods, the results were out in just ten minutes.

The inspection team announced the results:

The black liquid bottle that Shen Mei had brought indeed contained formaldehyde, and it also had formalin components.

However, the original Love perfume and Shen Ning’s newly developed series of products all tested negative.

In other words, Shen Ning hadn’t deceived anyone.

The results were crystal clear.

The whole venue erupted in enthusiastic applause, and they began to cheer..
