At this point, Vivian had no way out of this tough situation.
In front of everyone, Vivian tried very hard to recall the process and keepforting herself in her
mind. She thought. ‘I’ll make it. Just a few words, analyzing the ingredients. Even if I make mistakes,
what can they do to me?”
But even so, Vivian still felt uncontrobly nervous. Her hand, reaching out for the test strip, was
trembling.
After the routine procedures, Vivian smelled a faint lingering fragrance. She tried to recall all her
knowledge of perfumes and analyze the ingredients first. Vivian thought roughly analyzing the
ingredients was better than just being silent after all.
The host said, “Ms. Garcia, are you ready?”
This time, as soon as the host spoke, Vivian replied, “Personally, I like this perfume. Usually, I prefer
light and elegant fragrances so this is exactly what I like. I don’t know. what kind of person the perfumer
is but I think he might be tranquil like a poet and pursue a reclusive life in the countryside.
“By the way, I smelled chrysanthemum in it. I think it may contain essential oil extracted from dried
chrysanthemum flowers. Although Vivian’s sounded like they were founded, she obviously sounded
less and less confident and more and more tentatively.
Vivian was not certain about what she said but she couldn’t say anything. She had to make up
something based on her past experience.
Vivian thought, “Whatever! As long as I say something!
The host hesitated. “Well.” Vivian became more nervous. She thought she must be
wrong.
The host said, “I don’t know what the ingredients are. But it feels beautiful hearing Ms. Garcia’s
description! How about we invite the perfumer of this perfume now to answer your question in person?
We’ll soon know if you’re right.”
Vivian slightly rxed and then felt stressed again.
Vivian only hoped that she was half right or her ttering would probably make it hard for the perfumer
to be cruel to her.
A man walked onstage slowly amid enthusiastic apuse.
Vivian didn’t even dare to look at him. She just stood on the stage and apuded with a

smile.
She flushed but she knew she had to stay calm. She must behave like she was not scared. She had to
look confident no matter what the perfumer saidter.
The host said, “We’re so happy to have the perfumer himself here today. Now let’s wee Mr. Mike
Larson to introduce this perfume to us.”
What the host just said surprised Vivian.
Vivian turned around abruptly and saw the familiar face. With an extremely gentle smile, the man took
the microphone from the host.
Vivian thought, ‘How could it be him?”
Mike looked at Vivian, holding the microphone. After a while, he turned around to the audience in front
of him.
“First of all, I would like to thank the organizers for having me here. I feel honored. Although I grew up
in Edoeldia and I have focused on spices and essential oils for many years, I am also interested in the
cultural heritage here very much.” Mike spoke flt. Clusian. “This perfume is inspired by a poet from
here.”
After a pause, Mike smiled and turned sideways to Vivian. “Yes, as Ms. Garcia just said, it was inspired
by a great poet. I admire the poet’s attitude toward life and like his poems very much. I’m d that I
found someone who understands me today!”
Mike walked over to
hold Vivian’s hand. He looked at her with his beautiful blue eyes. “Thank you, Ms. Garcia!”
Mike raised one of her hands and kissed the back of it.
Rapturous apuse from the audience burst out while Vivian subconsciously withdrew her hand
nervously onstage.
Everyone else just saw Mike kissing the back of Vivian’s hand. Only Vivian could feel that Mike stuck
out his tongue and licked the back of her hand.

Mike did it extremely fast and he immediately let go of her hand so nobody else could
notice it.
But the feeling of Mike’s tongue tugged at Vivian’s heartstrings. Her mind was a mess
now.
Vivian blushed but she couldn’t say anything about it in front of so many people. She just lowered her
head and smiled as if she was shy because of what Mike said.
Seraphina narrowed her eyes slightly and looked at Vivian yfully,

Seraphina didn’t see clearly what Mike had done but Vivian was definitely not just shy because of what
Mike said. Seraphina thought, ‘How can a person like her who takes credit for things that somebody
else did look so shy when she hears ttering words? Interesting!”
On the stage, the host continued, “It seems that Mr. Larson and Ms. Garcia can connect with each
other. I’m happy about that! The purpose of this perfumery conference is to tell you guys that there are
many excellent perfumers at home as well as abroad. And. we have strong reasons to believe that this
industry is going to grow rapidly at home. There will be more excellent talents in the near future. We
also wish everyone all of you a brilliant future!”
Nudging Mia, Seraphina said, “Let’s go!”
Mia tilted her head to the side, looking at Vivian and Mike. “Don’t you think Ms. Garcia and Mr. Larson
here look a bit weird?”
Seraphina subconsciously nced at the stage and saw that Vivian and Mike were still standing apart
without eye contact and everything seemed normal.
Seraphina wondered whether Mia also found what she just found.
Seraphina asked disapprovingly, “What is weird?”
“They’re pretending to be strangers!” Mia stuck out her chin toward the stage. “Did you forget that I saw
this Mike on the ne? They were together but now they look like they don’t know each other and even
tter each other to such a ridiculous extent.”
Mia tutted and added, “I really didn’t expect that foreign talents are so hypocritical.”
Seraphina felt speechless.
After thinking for a while, Mia said, “But who knows if he is really a talent? Nowadays the world is
awash with too many meaningless titles and rewards. It’s so boring!”
Mia stood up and said, “Let’s go back and get some rest. Tomorrow, we will go outside to be inspired.”
Seraphina nced at Vivian and Mike again. Hearing what Mia said, she remembered. that this foreign
man was indeed sitting beside Vivian on the ne. Unexpectedly, Julian didn’t go here with Vivian.
Vivian and Mike pretended to be strangers. Was this just a show to tter Vivian or was there
something else going on?
When walking out, Seraphina felt something was wrong and subconsciously looked upstairs.
It was empty there, nothing but a few tables.
