Chapter 38 Qu Ying faints from anger
"You're really willing to part with it? I'll accept it."
Xia Liuli looked at Xiao Chen and said.
If Xiao Chen felt even the slightest bit of heartache, she would immediately return it.
"It's just a youth pill, I don't need it," Xiao Chen said with a faint smile.
"Do you have many more?" Qu Ying and He Qin were very shocked.
"Since you still have some, could you sell me one?" He Qin asked, her eyes filled with longing.
She is getting on in years, but she still pursues beauty. Unfortunately, no matter how good or expensive the cosmetics are, they cannot hide the traces of time.
The youth pills before her were something she had always dreamed of.
Qu Ying's face darkened, displeased with He Qin's change of expression, but she couldn't suppress her desire.
“I’ll give you a million, just give me one,” she said in a commanding tone.
In her mind, one million was a huge sum for someone like Xiao Chen, who was struggling at the bottom of society, and Xiao Chen should be grateful.
"You actually dare to say one million? Is that a lot? You think you can buy such a miraculous medicine with that little money? Keep dreaming!" Chen Lin mocked without any politeness.
Qu Ying's face turned pale and then red, extremely embarrassed.
“Five million! I’ll offer five million!” He Qin said quickly.
"This is just a remote little town after all; even the so-called noble ladies have such limited understanding," Chen Lin continued to mock. "If this pill were auctioned on the international market, plenty of people would be willing to pay hundreds of millions!"
Qu Ying and He Qin remained silent.
Because they knew that what Chen Lin said was true.
"No matter how much money you offer, I would rather give it away to someone else than sell one to you," Xiao Chen said coldly.
"You..." The two were angered again.
"Xia Liuli, come home with me right now! You're never allowed to come here again, and you're never allowed to see this rebellious son of the Xiao family again!" He Qin was furious and started targeting Xia Liuli.
She thought that this would make Xiao Chen feel bad.
Xiao Chen smiled slightly, without saying a word.
"Mom, I can't leave. I still need to study with my teacher," Xia Liuli said solemnly.
"You think you're all grown up now?" He Qin stomped her foot angrily.
Xia Liuli had never disobeyed her before...
She naturally pinned her hopes on Xiao Chen again.
"Someone, remove him!" Xiao Chen said impatiently.
"Aunt, you should leave. Don't make things difficult for me," Xia Tianqi said as he stepped forward.
"Xia Tianqi!" He Qin looked incredulous.
Xia Tianqi is the troublemaker of the Xia family, and the elders can't do anything about him. But he actually showed up at this small clinic and obeyed Xiao Chen's orders!
What exactly is going on?
He Qin was so angry she almost fainted.
Qu Ying was also shocked and speechless.
"By the way, our clinic might sell some beauty and skincare products in the future, which could impact Ms. Qu's cosmetics company. You could buy some heart-protecting medicine here, otherwise you might get a heart attack from getting so angry," Xiao Chen said jokingly.
Qu Ying's face darkened, and she quickly sneered, saying, "Your youth pills can never be mass-produced, and the price will definitely be high. Trying to enter the cosmetics market is wishful thinking!"
"Furthermore, Yanmei Cosmetics has a unique formulator that no other brand can match. Just those patents alone will make Yanmei invincible!"
Qu Ying smiled confidently.
“But I heard your formula maker resigned,” Xiao Chen said with a light laugh.
"Bullshit! Where did you hear this rumor? Yan Mei might resign from any job, but the formulator would never!" Qu Ying said firmly.
"Do you know this gentleman...?" Xiao Chen waved his hand.
A man walked out of the clinic and called out to Qu Ying, "President Qu."
Qu Ying's expression immediately froze, looking somewhat bewildered.
"Minister Lu, what are you doing here?" she asked, bewildered.
This person is the head of the R&D department of Yanmei Cosmetics, who is also her one and only treasured formulator.
All of Yanmei Makeup's best-selling products are made by him.
"Mr. Qu, I submitted my resignation to the HR department this morning. From today onwards, I will simply be a clerk at the clinic," the man said calmly.
"What?! You..." Qu Ying's mind went blank, and her eyes widened.
She couldn't believe what she was hearing.
The other party actually gave up the position of the second-in-command at Yanmei Makeup and came to work as a shop assistant in this tiny clinic?
Qu Ying was on the verge of losing her mind.
Is he alright? What's he thinking?
Did your head get squeezed in a door?
Qu Ying couldn't understand it no matter what, and felt a sense of suffocation.
"Are you out of your mind? Is this a choice a normal person would make?" He Qin shouted nervously.
Xia Liuli was also shocked.
The three men came to apply for the job at noon without even asking for wages, and she thought they just wanted to make a living.
Surprisingly, one of the formulators from Yanmei Cosmetics was among them...
That's an incredibly talented person!
What's wrong with him? Why did he do that?
And those other two, could they also be someone important...?
"Minister Lu, why!" Qu Ying became hysterical, unable to bear such a blow.
How can Yanmei Cosmetics develop without formulators?
"There's no reason why. Beauty isn't worth my time," the man said calmly.
Qu Ying's face turned ferocious.
"Me, a woman of great beauty, am I not as good as a tiny little clinic?" she roared.
"The difference is like heaven and earth, incomparable," the man said calmly.
Qu Ying was so angry that she lost her balance and broke down.
"Fine, fine, get out! Go to hell with this lousy clinic!" she said angrily.
"By the way, I'll be taking all of Yanmei's formulas with me," the man continued.
"Absolutely not! That belongs to the company! If you dare take it away, I'll make you pay!" Qu Ying snapped.
"Don't get me wrong, those are all my patents, they never belong to Yanmei. You can go back and check the contracts." The man's expression was indifferent.
Qu Ying's vision went black immediately.
She quickly called her company to have them investigate.
But the result was not good news, leaving her feeling weak.
"You begged to join Yanmei back then, why are you betraying me now!" Qu Ying roared.
"You're wrong again. I've never followed you, nor Yan Mei, but rather the person supporting Yan Mei," the man said.
"Qu Ying, you are utterly incompetent and have no right to be my follower!"
One sentence was enough to make Qu Ying turn pale and back away.
This was a huge blow to her.
I came here today to confront Xiao Chen and demand an explanation, so how did things turn out like this?
The formulator's evaluation shattered her self-esteem, driving her to the brink of madness.
"Yan Mei...who is the person supporting her?" she asked, her eyes red.
"He's someone you're not worthy of associating with. Without him, you're utterly useless. You could bankrupt even a small cosmetics store, let alone a large company. What kind of female entrepreneur is he? He's nothing but a joke."
The man's words were like sharp swords piercing Qu Ying's chest time and time again.
"You...you're talking nonsense! I don't believe you!" she shouted with all her might before her eyes rolled back and she collapsed.
He was so angry that he fainted.
