Chapter 306 Collision of Fire and Ice


    The time in the shower seemed to pass both quickly and slowly, seemingly unpredictable.


    Mnie’s head was buzzing, repeatedly thinking about what she said just now. Truly, alcohol emboldened


    people...


    After an unknown amount of time, she finally put on a bathrobe. She smoothed her wet hair, and walked out of


    the bathroom.


    She saw Jeffrey in a dark checkered robe that revealed some of his chest. He was lounging on the sofa,


    waiting for her.


    Seeing her standing still, Jeffrey took the initiative to get up and walked to her. He helped her tuck her wet hair


    behind her ear, revealing the graceful curve of her side profile.


    His Adam''s apple bobbed. He couldn''t help but lean close to her tender ears. His breath brushed against the top of her head and


    ears, sending an electric current rushing from the depths of her heart to her entire body. She couldn’t help but tremble.


    His eyes shed. He bent down to kiss her, but her phone rang.


    Mnie was about to step away, but Jeffrey firmly stopped her with his hand and softly said, “Don’t mind it.”


    She took a deep breath, following his advice. However, the phone rang again after it stopped. This happened


    several times.


    Mnie cleared her slightly hoarse throat and said, “I''ll answer it, just in case it’s something urgent.”


    Seeing her nervous appearance, as if they were doing something wrong, Jeffrey yfully released her. She quickly bent down to


    pick up her phone and found it was a call from Cyrus.


    “Master?” She cleared her throat again.


    “I''ve arrived in Harbor City. I’ming to Jones Enterprise now. | know what to rece cedar with, so you better remember to


    bring the fragrance sachets you mentioned.”


    “Now?” Mnie’s blush reached her neck.


    “Is it not okay?” Cyrus asked.


    “Elder Gibson.” Jeffrey took advantage of her shyness to hold her hand, bringing his face close to the phone. ” Please wait a bit


    longer at Jones Enterprise. We have urgent matters to attend to.”


    After saying that, he decisively hung up the phone on her behalf.


    Mnie was embarrassed, ring at him with puckered lips. “How could you be so...”


    The second half of the sentence was already contained in his forceful, deep kiss.

    Early the next morning, in the Jones Enterprise’s guest room, Mnie appeared in front of Cyrus, too embarrassed to lift her


    head.

    Cyrus just smiled. He was once in her position. From the thermos he brought, he took out a spice and handed it to her. “Try this


    and see if it can achieve the effect you want.”


    “This is ck basil. Mnie was a little puzzled. “I want to use the coldest spice to create Siberian butterflies


    “But you also said you''ve tried many times, and the coldest spices couldn’t create the feeling you wanted,


    right?”


    Cyrus continued, “You mentioned that Siberian butterflies have experienced the most brutal suffering. They go through severe


    cold, after which they gain a new life. | think the scent you want should be the extreme


    collision of fire and ice.”


    “Master, you’re amazing!”


    Mnie’s eyes lit up, and the embarrassment from earlier was instantly thrown out of her mind.


    “Yes, | want the collision of fire and ice, the sh of cruelty and passion. The ck basil, which thrives in the hottest tropical


    regions, is just right to counterbnce the richness in the fragrance.”


    The two discussed. They quickly changed into work uniforms and entered the fragrance blending room, starting a new round of


    experimentation.


    At dawn, Mnie, holding a light silver test tube, eximed with joy, “I’ve finally seeded! Thank you,


    Master!”


    “Do you want to make it into perfume or fragrance?” Cyrus asked.Property ? 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.


    Mnie looked at the liquid in her hand, and said, “Perfume is too expensive, and the public can’t afford it. Let''s make it into a


    fragrance. That way, everyone has the chance to pursue excellence and to break through


    adversity.”


    Cyrus waved his hands casually. “As you wish.”


    He then spread his hands, and asked, “Where’s the fragrance sachet that you mentioned to trick me into helping you? Is there


    any truth to it, or is it just a lie?”


    “How would | dare lie to you?”


    Mnie changed out of her work uniform and hurriedly took out the fragrance sachet made by the old woman guarding the


    mountain, and then handed it to Cyrus.


    Cyrus smelled it. His drooping eyelids suddenly lifted, and he looked excitedly at her.


    “This fragrance...”
