Appetizer

She had only made a promise, without disclosing the specific ingredients.

"It's all made from plants? I highly doubt it. The skincare product works so well, you must have added some undisclosed substances," Mrs. Chen said coldly.

Lin Qingwan frowned deeply. "Mrs. Chen, what do you mean by that? Our company's products are produced legally and in compliance. If you don't believe me, you can visit our production facility and see for yourself whether we use only plant-based ingredients!"

This Mrs. Chen was clearly here to cause trouble. Could it be arranged by Jiang Yutong?

Lin Qingwan looked towards Jiang Yutong.

Aside from Jiang Yutong, she really couldn't think of anyone else who would use such underhanded tactics against her.

Moreover, Mrs. Chen was not an ordinary person; no commoner could get her to come and slander her like this.

So, it must be Jiang Yutong's doing.

But, hmph, did Jiang Yutong really think that slander could hinder her company's growth?

What a pipe dream!

"Visit the facility? Even if you used banned substances, how would an outsider like me be able to tell?" Mrs. Chen retorted angrily.

Lin Qingwan was now certain Mrs. Chen was here to make trouble.

She took a deep breath and said, "Alright, Mrs. Chen. You claim our company's skincare products are problematic. Do you have any evidence?"

"My face is the evidence!"

Mrs. Chen yanked off the veil covering her face.

A collective gasp!

The people around them were shocked when they saw Chen Qing's appearance.

"Oh my god, that's disgusting. So many pimples, and it's oozing pus."

"Is her face ruined?"

"I don't know, but with her face in that state, I doubt it can recover easily."

Those people couldn't help but take several steps back.

Mrs. Chen's face was truly horrifying.

Even Lin Qingwan was stunned when she saw Chen Qing's face.

Mrs. Chen's eyes were red-rimmed as she said, "During this period, I haven't used anything else, not even makeup. The only thing I applied to my face was your company's Supreme Series skincare."

"Yes, it was very effective at first. The acne and spots on my face reduced significantly. But! Starting five days ago, my face began breaking out and festering."

Mrs. Chen was very emotional. "My diet has been the same as before. The only possible cause is that your skincare products ruined my face!"

Jiang Shuqin's face turned pale.

Ever since she saw Lin Xuan appear at the celebration banquet, she had a bad feeling.

And now, as expected, the moment had arrived.

Lin Qingwan shook her head. "No, it's not a problem with my skincare. Yours is just an isolated case. Haven't tens of thousands of people used my products without any issues?"

Even now, Lin Qingwan still believed the Supreme Series skincare was completely safe.

"Mrs. Chen, have you been checked by a doctor? Could your face be like this due to an allergic reaction?"

As she spoke the last sentence, Lin Qingwan's confidence wavered slightly.

A facial allergy wouldn't typically cause such severe damage as Mrs. Chen's.

Mrs. Chen said coldly, "Several of my friends started using it two days later than me, and they're also experiencing various skin problems. If it was just me being allergic, fine. But could they all be allergic in the same way too?"

Lin Qingwan clenched her fists, momentarily at a loss for how to respond to Mrs. Chen.

Mrs. Chen continued to glare at Lin Qingwan. "Now that I'm like this, I can't even show my face in public. The doctors also said there's no way to fully recover. Lin Qingwan, do you realize you're ruining my life!"

No man could accept a wife with a ruined face, especially a successful one.

If her husband saw her like this, he definitely wouldn't be able to accept it. Then he would go find other women outside.

Those women might even come knocking on her door, trying to take her position as Mrs. Chen, and even mistreat her daughter and son.

They might not even get their share of the family assets!

"Lin Qingwan, you must give me an explanation!" Mrs. Chen shouted loudly.

Hearing Mrs. Chen's words, the other society ladies present were also deeply shaken.

"Oh no, I've been using the Supreme Series skincare every day these past few days. My face has been itchy, and this morning I saw a few pimples on my face—I never get pimples. I thought it was normal."

She touched her own face, her expression full of fear. "Will I end up like Mrs. Chen later?"

Her eyes were filled with terror.

She didn't want her face ruined!

A wave of fear washed over many of the society ladies present.

Lin Qingwan took a deep breath and spoke again, "Mrs. Chen, I still believe the issues with your face are not due to our product, but rather your personal circumstances. How about I take you to the hospital to find out the cause?"

Lin Qingwan tried to lead Mrs. Chen away.

She could guarantee that the Supreme Series skincare had no problems.

However.

This was her company's celebration banquet, and she had invited so many reporters.

She couldn't allow any negative news to leak from this event.

"Get away from me!"

Mrs. Chen violently shook off Lin Qingwan's hand. "I've already been to the hospital; I don't need you to take me! Lin Qingwan, no matter what, you must give me an explanation today!"

Lin Xuan raised an eyebrow, watching the scene unfold with great interest.

Watching someone's misfortune firsthand was quite entertaining.

Reporters had already surrounded Lin Qingwan.

"Ms. Lin, what are your thoughts on Mrs. Chen's facial issues allegedly caused by using your company's product?" a reporter asked.

Lin Qingwan replied, "This is just an isolated case. It's very likely her face became like that because she ate something wrong recently."

"The effectiveness of the Supreme Series skincare, as you all have seen, is to give everyone a flawless, smooth complexion, not to ruin anyone's face."

"I will have this matter thoroughly investigated, and I ask for everyone's trust."

Lin Qingwan sincerely bowed.

With Lin Qingwan speaking like this, the reporters couldn't press further.

"Lin Qingwan, don't think you can gloss over this. You must give me an explanation!" Mrs. Chen continued to shout loudly.

Lin Qingwan said coldly, "Mrs. Chen, if you continue making such a loud disturbance, don't blame me for having security escort you out."

The Chen family's business was mainly in construction and fashion design.

It had little overlap with her company's operations.

Offending the Chen family wouldn't have much impact on her.

"Lin Qingwan, I see. You want to suppress this matter."

Mrs. Chen pointed at Lin Qingwan. "Lin Qingwan, do you think you can suppress it? So many people have bought your skincare products. Their faces will develop problems sooner or later. With tens of thousands of people, even if you sold your entire company, you wouldn't be able to completely cover this up!" Mrs. Chen was extremely agitated.

Lin Qingwan ordered the security guards with an expressionless face, "Take her away. Don't let her back in until the celebration banquet is over."
