Chapter 57: Showing Off Her Abilities
“Indeed! If I knew you had such a gorgeous daughter, I would have arranged a meeting between my son and her long ago! Old Mo, this is quite unfriendly of you, isn’t it!”
“You must hold her so dearly, don’t you? I bet you don’t want the world to lay eyes on her!”
“Oh my, what good fortune! First, you got a beautiful daughter like Xingyu, now another even more enchanting lady joins your family? Quick, tell the truth, is there an even more gorgeous third daughter?”
This joke very successfully sent the crowd bursting into a resounding symphony of laughter.
On the other hand, the laughter from Mo Zhenggan and Zhang Qin hid a trace of stiffness and awkwardness. What jokes, three daughters? They can’t even wait to make Mo Xingyu the only one!
“Good evening, everyone. I’m Mo Yun, twenty one years of age this year. From now on, I will also be joining arms with my family in Cosmetics and Pharmaceuticals work. Your help, dear seniors, would be greatly appreciated.”
Hearing the last sentence, the superficial warm smile on Mo Zhenggan twitched as his face twisted uncomfortably.
What a cunning vixen, who let you spout this nonsense? Mo Pharmaceutical doesn’t need the likes of you!
Alas, they did not dare to rebuke her for their weakness laid perilously in her hands. Not to mention, they could not go overboard in front of the industries’ superpowers.
“Mo Yun, that’s inappropriate.” Zhang Qin stepped forward and pulled back her daughter, softly and gently reprimanding, “The company still has your sister, be more humble! Also, you just returned, don’t self-praise in front of all the elders and seniors.”
In the crowd’s eyes, there was nothing amiss with the mother lecturing her child. Even Zhang Qin herself found it suitable, expecting Mo Yun to at least heed her advice a little. After all, she was playing the role of the birth mother.
Alas, the words fell on deaf ears. Mo Yun intentionally continued, “Mother, since I was young, I known your heart has always swayed towards Sister. Your eyes only saw her and not me. It’s as if I wasn’t your child and only Sister was. Now, I’m being serious. I’m not being complacent or bragging about my abilities. I even brought my research product along!”
“Research product?” A shocked gasp escaped from Zhang Qing. At the same time, Mo Zhenggan and Mo Xingyu’s eyes widened three folds as their heart skipped a beat.
“Indeed.” Mo Yun shook off her mother’s grip. Stepping forward, she faced the crowd with a bright smile. “I’ve invented an all-new shower essence. Using this in the bath would not only soften your skin, but it will also remove any odours. I’ve been using it for quite some time and the effect is marvellous. Today I have brought it along for everyone. If you like it, I hope you will support our products.”
Finishing the introduction, Mo Yun gestured to her helpers.
In the blink of an eye, a waiter pushed in a cart of shower essence. Made specially for the guests, the liquids were poured into exquisite petite glass bottles. Each intricate bottle was distributed to a guest. As they received them, their eyes sparkled with anticipation, the desire to test it out gushed through their minds.
Well, it’s understandable. As Mo Yun spoke, her flawless, pearl-white skin glistened under the light. As they watched her, there was only one thought on their minds.
What perfect skin, could it be because of this?
Whatever, let’s just test it out.
“Mother, Sister, I’ve prepared a set for you both too.” She handed the essence to them.
Watching her sister’s glamour, Mo Xingyu bit her jaw tight together, suppressing her boiling rage. As she received the bottle, her jaws almost snapped her tooth from the increasingly difficult forced smile.
Mo Yun! You bitch! This must be on purpose!!! You must be intentionally showing off your abilities, thinking it will be easier to expose me. Huh! I will never let it happen!
With a deep breath, Mo Xingyu relaxed her tensed fist. With an unwavering warm smile, she generously received the gift, “Yunyun, thank you for your thoughtfulness!”
“What thoughtfulness? This is her duty!”
