“I’ll give it a sniff.” Just as the crowd was filled with doubt and uncertainty, Wu Lili stepped forward from the midst of the people and walked briskly towards Shen Mei.
Shen Mei looked at her, inwardly amused. This kind of asion would certainly involve her, just as she had anticipated.
Perfect, she could use her!
She exchanged a meaningful nce with Wu Lili.
Wu Lili understood and shed a smile back at her, taking the ck liquid bottle from her hand. She uncapped it and brought it to her nostrils to take a whiff.
“Oh, it’s terrible! This stuff mixed into perfume is simply disgusting. She’s truly an unscrupulous businesswoman, deceiving consumers,” Wu Lili eximed with exaggerated disgust, making a nauseated expression.
“Ladies and gentlemen, you’ve all been deceived by Shen Ning. While she was in the United States, she was just making a living with odd jobs, not a perfume expert as she ims. She even swindled money from our Shao family recently.”
As these words emerged, the whole crowd erupted again.
Shen Mei acted surprised as she looked at Wu Lili. “Miss Wu, you mustn’t tarnish my sister’s reputation. She’s not that kind of person. Although she mixed this poisonous liquid into the perfumes, I believe she had a reason and didn’t do it intentionally.”
“Ai, Mrs. Li, you’re too kind and naive. Gu Qi was originally a gift from your father to you, and your fiance is her ex-husband. Of course, she’s unhappy about it. Her return this time is clearly to snatch Gu Qi and cling to your fiance. Yet, you’re here naively defending her. It’s really pitiful. Please send her to the police station quickly. This woman is not to be trifled with,” Wu Lili argued righteously, her face disying integrity.
Shen Mei intentionally looked weak and helplessly nced at Li Zhenting sitting below, biting her lip in apparent distress.
The implication was clear: See, even Shen Ning’s aunt is saying this about her. I’m not making any baseless usations. Can’t you, for my sake, help me get rid of her?
However, Li Zhenting remained as unmoved as a mountain, showing no emotion whatsoever.
At this moment, Wu Lili handed the liquid bottle to Shen Mei and secretly raised one finger as a signal.
It was their secret code, meaning one million.
Shen Mei understood and took it, nodding in agreement.
The women in the audience were filled with anger. It was clear that they had been manipted by these two!
Shen Ning looked on coldly at the two nauseating women putting on a performance, her gazending on the ck liquid bottle—it was what she used to contain formaldehyde!
She had always kept it on her office desk. Apparently, there was a mole who had infiltrated her office and stolen it.
A sardonic smile yed on her lips.
“Shen Ning, how do you exin this?” Wu Lili asked with satisfaction, looking towards Shen Ning.
Everyone’s eyes were now fixed on her.
Shen Ning’s eyes shed with a hint of mockery as she replied casually, “Ladies and gentlemen, this ck bottle contains formaldehyde. Indeed, I use it for perfume formtion. However, ording to national regtions, formaldehyde can be used as an ingredient in perfume. If you don’t believe me, you can look up the information online.”
“But sister, besides formaldehyde, there’s also formalin, which is toxic to the human body,” Shen Mei immediately followed up. “Beforeing here, I had it tested by a testing agency.”
“All, formalin? My goodness, there’s actually something like that in here? That’s what’s used to preserve corpses!” The wealthydies in the audience paled and eximed in shock.
“This is truly despicable. I suggest we give her a good beating and then call the police.” Wu Lili took advantage of the situation to loudly incite the crowd..
