Speaking of the banquet hall...
Fifteen minutes quickly passed by.
The atmosphere was electric.
Everyone held their breath and watched the stage intently.
Lin Fan had a bad feeling.
"Ms. Yang, time's up," the staff member announced.
Yang Jingying nodded, signaling the cleaning ladies to wash their faces with clean water.
The aloe skincare product showed decent results.
However, when the other five cleaning ladies removed the volcanic mud skincare product from their faces...
The comparison was stark.
The volcanic mud product completely dominated again!
The confidence vanished from Lin Fan's face.
His expression changed dramatically.
He couldn't help muttering,
"Impossible..."
"Impossible..."
And at that moment,
The entire banquet hall erupted!
"The Yang Family's new skincare product is absolutely incredible! My goodness!"
"Thank goodness I was here in person. If I'd watched this on video, I might have thought it was just clever editing and PS techniques."
"Miss Jingying, when will your family's new skincare product go on sale? I want to pre-order ten boxes!"
"Suddenly all my expensive foreign brand skincare products seem worthless. What garbage have I been buying all this time?"
"Holy cow! Once this product launches, the Yang Family's stock will skyrocket!"
When the last cleaning lady washed off the volcanic mud product from the other half of her face,
The revealed skin was smoother and fairer than before.
She looked like a completely different person compared to before!
And comparing it to the half of her face that used the aloe product!
Clearly,
The volcanic mud product's effects were far more dramatic!
Years later, with the volcanic mud skincare formula in hand, the Yang Family's products would sell out domestically and quickly sweep across the globe.
They would become an internationally recognized super-premium skincare brand!
Known by everyone, everywhere.
Due to its extraordinary effects,
The Yang Family's skincare line would be included among Asia's Four Dark Arts.
It would quickly become the number one among Asia's Five Dark Arts.
But that's a story for another time.
Lin Fan's face turned ashen. He couldn't figure it out or understand.
Was this skincare product really developed by the Yang Family's heavy investment in research?
Really?
Yes!
Really?
Yes!
...
Really?
This clearly wasn't something that could be developed through research.
It must be some secret formula they obtained from somewhere.
Looking at the quality and effects,
It was several levels above his master's aloe skincare formula!
Lin Fan's face was ashen - Yang Jingying had cheated!
She didn't dare use skincare products actually developed by the Yang Family.
To compete with him head-on!
"Miss Yang, where did you get this formula?"
Yang Jingxuan raised an eyebrow.
This Lin Fan was so shameless!
Wasn't the Yang Family's skincare product developed by themselves?
Though even Yang Jingxuan didn't believe that herself.
She planned to scold Lin Fan first!
Then find a chance to ask her sister later.
"How is that any of your business?"
Yang Jingxuan said coldly.
Yang Jingying held her back and asked with a smile,
"Where did your skincare formula come from?"
"It's been passed down through generations."
Lin Fan said without batting an eye.
Yang Jingying shrugged, "Mine is also inherited."
"You!"
Lin Fan didn't believe it at all.
What nonsense about family inheritance.
If the Yang Family had such an amazing skincare product,
They would have mass-produced and sold it long ago.
Why wait until now?
Who were they trying to fool?
Lin Fan's face burned with humiliation.
No point in staying here any longer!
Lin Fan grabbed Ma Qun, intending to leave.
He needed to investigate with Red Rose.
To find out where Yang Jingying got her formula!
And plan their next move!
Yang Jingying's calm voice came from behind.
"Mr. Lin, what about that apology you promised?"
Lin Fan and Ma Qun stopped in their tracks.
Lin Fan's expression was extremely unpleasant!
Asking him to apologize?
Who did Yang Jingying think she was?
Ma Qun, knowing Lin Fan's personality,
Turned and bowed to Yang Jingying.
"We're sorry, Miss Yang! We lost!"
Showing complete humility!
Yang Jingying sneered.
"Mr. Lin, are you even a man?"
"You have no sense of responsibility."
Lin Fan's face darkened further.
Hundreds of eyes were watching!
Plus, Yang Jingying was a woman he had to have!
How dare Yang Jingying make him apologize!
In the future,
He would make her pay back a hundredfold!
"Miss Yang, hasn't my friend already apologized for me?"
Ma Qun's face was equally dark.
Yang Jingying shook her head.
"That's a separate matter."
She was clearly trying to embarrass Lin Fan.
But fundamentally it wasn't unfair.
After all, it was Lin Fan himself who had made the promise.
Yang Jingying hadn't forced him.
"Miss Yang, I'm sorry..."
Lin Fan smiled, a barely noticeable cold glint flashing in his eyes.
Very well!
Woman, you've successfully crossed my bottom line!
Don't blame me later when I move against your Yang Family!
"Sister, let me call security to throw this guy out."
Watching Lin Fan and Ma Qun leave,
Yang Jingxuan said irritably.
Yang Jingying shook her head, "No need."
There was no need for Yang Jingxuan to call anyone.
Lin Fan had lost too much face to stay!
He was now desperate to investigate.
To figure out what was really going on.
He felt someone was constantly working against him!
Targeting him!
Previously when he was abroad,
His luck had been incredible!
Beautiful women had thrown themselves at him.
Why had everything changed since returning home?
Was it culture shock?
Lin Fan didn't think so!
Shortly after Lin Fan left,
The banquet hall exploded with excitement.
The socialites, young ladies, wealthy wives, and mature women,
All the prominent figures,
Who had varying degrees of connection to the Yang Family,
Crowded around Yang Jingying.
"Jingying! You naughty girl, your Yang Family has been hiding such an amazing skincare product. You're treating us like outsiders - it's not like we can't afford it!"
"Sister Yang, I've been working overtime lately and my skin is suffering. When your Yang Family's new volcanic mud product is available, you must sell to me first~"
"Little Yang, do you have stock tomorrow? I want to place an order for your aunt."
"..."
"Please rest assured everyone, our Yang Family has plenty of stock ready."
Yang Jingying smiled as she calmed the crowd.
It seemed this skincare product launch
Didn't need Lin Anan as spokesperson at all.
Yang Jingying was certain the volcanic mud skincare would be a bestseller!
But the speed of success felt too fast!
Like riding a rocket.
Meanwhile, after waiting a long time,
Xu Mo hadn't returned.
An Youyi frowned slightly.
Though she sat there,
Her attention remained fixed on the door.
Not a single movement
Escaped her notice!
Thinking of Zhou Qiaoqiao's earlier departure,
An Youyi felt something was amiss.
So when those around her weren't paying attention,
She quietly rose from her seat and left.
Xu Mo wanted to return too,
But couldn't for the moment!
These days when the big shots won't come out, they send the small fry to take their place.
This wasn't what he wanted.

ive and Ruthless] Before his transmigration, Ye Xuan was playing a game called "Severing Emotions to Attain the Dao." The game's core wasn't about leveling up by fighting monsters, but about conquering various "bad women" with wicked personalities and cold, fickle natures. There was only one method to conquer them: stay unwaveringly by their side, then die at a critical moment, driving them to madness after losing the protagonist. The higher their level of regret, the higher the player's score. To dominate the server, Ye Xuan conquered all the bad women. In the early stages, he showered them with boundless tenderness, only to choose to sacrifice himself for them later, making them weep bitterly and drown in regret. Among them were: Xia Lengyue, the unfaithful immortal wife who chased after powerful men and discarded her husband like trash. Ye Qingcheng, the Demonic Venerable of the Joyous Union Sect, who appeared pure and innocent but was, in reality, promiscuous. Wu Lingxiao, the Empress of the Great Xia Dynasty, who lusted after men and loved maintaining a harem. Bai Qiangu of the Endless Demonic Sect: a bloodthirsty mass murderer. However, when the protagonist transmigrated into the game world, he made a horrifying discovery. Eight hundred years had already passed. The bad women he had conquered had now each become deities and revered ancestors. Faced with the endless stream of toxic women coming for him, Ye Xuan could only rely on his god-tier acting skills to carve a path of survival through this world of treacherous women.
