Chapter 707
Immediately, the place was filled with voices of people comparing the two words. After careful consideration
and trying with different tones, they did hear it with different meanings.
Even the employees of La Beaute Group were curiously repeating the word silently. Only Lily remained calm,
standing there quietly. Even if she did not attend all dressed up, she was still so beautiful that people could not
take their eyes off her.
"Even so, what do you mean by poison? If it's not poison, could it be a tonic?"
Lily expected she would face doubts, and laughed. "It's not a tonic, but it's almost similar. After all, tonic is
good for your body. What I added also has this effect."
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Don't keep us guessing. You still admit that you added something to the perfume. Did you put in other
additives during the blending process? What exactly did you add?"
They were met with boos from the audience. She suppressed a smile and put on a serious expression.
Everyone around Lily fell silent as they wondered if she was growing angry.
"Everyone, before I explain what's in it, I want to talk about why I added other things." She lowered her
head and paced slowly, looking dignified.
Her pace was slow as every step was heavy. No one spoke for a while. They all took the initiative to
quiet down, waiting for her next words.
After walking back and forth, Lily finally stopped and looked at the audience again.
"You may have heard that my grandfather passed away last month. My grandfather is a very strict but
kind old man. He has always been in good health. However, he unexpectedly suffered from insomnia in
his later years. He didn't sleep well and had difficulty falling asleep at night," she said in a low voice.
Her low tone made people unknowingly relate to her and feel emotional.
"For the elderly, eating and sleeping are the two important things. Their health will be affected if they
don't eat or sleep well. Being in a younger generation, I think hard about what I can do to help my
grandfather. Hence, I tried adding ingredients to help with sleep using scents."
After a pause, her voice increased a little. "As we all know, it is not uncommon for scented candles to
aid with sleep. Some scented candles with special oils, such as lavender, will make people feel at ease.
However, it was not very helpful for patients who suffer from severe insomnia like my grandfather.
Therefore, I tried to add some ingredients from traditional herbs that help with sleep and calm the mind.
I have also adjusted the amount and scent many times."
It seemed that her remarks carried the kind of influence that could subtly persuade listeners. Everyone
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmfelt that what she said was very reasonable. Slowly but surely, the masses grasped the actual
explanation.
"The 'poison' you mentioned is a medicine? Then, why do you call it poison?" Raising his hand, someone
asked.
Lily smiled lightly. "Medicine can also be a poison!"
Everyone fell silent as it seemed reasonable.
Soon someone asked, "Do the perfumes sold by La Beaute Group and other ingredients that contain the
essential oils of your fragrances also contain these poisons?"
Shaking her head, Lily said, "Initially, the added medicine was intended for my grandfather's illness. Not all
consumers need this special effect. Therefore, they wouldn't add it. Besides, do you think that adding more
ingredients will help lower the cost? Would we intentionally increase the cost of ingredients and become a
charity?"
