Chapter 678: Chapter 678

Xu Pingting had no idea what Zhang Heng thought. After she placed the perfume in front of him, she waited for his judgment.

Zhang Heng didn’t even open the bottle. Instead, he straight up asked her, “We all smelled your perfume this morning. Why don’t you tell us its name and what it defines.”

Xu Pingting was a little taken aback, but she quickly smiled, “The name of this perfume is ‘Eternity’. As we are all aware, there are many tragedies in life. It’s hard to keep our youth, hard to maintain our appearance, and hard to upkeep our temperament. Marriages get rough seven years in, and all relationships lose freshness. Other than time, not many things are eternal.”

“With those emotions in mind, I created this product. I’m hoping the wonderful name of this perfume can prolong all that you desire.”

Her words generated a wave of enthusiasm.

“Wow! How meaningful! This moves my heart!”

“Yeah! After all, time is a butcher knife. Who doesn’t want to forever keep their youth, appearances, temperament, and love?!”

“Finally, I realize the gap between her and me. There’s no way I can think of a name like that! Not everyone can be gifted!”

“I’m once again convinced that Ms. Xu will be the champion of this competition. Even during the first round, the judges had high praises for her product.”

Twelve judges nodded and showed admiration. Only Zhang Heng’s expression remained stern.

After the crowd went silent and the judges were ready to score, Zhang Heng suddenly said to Xu Pingting, “So, whoever uses your product gets to keep their youth, appearances, temperament, and even relationships?”

His words startled Xu Pingting again.

The others were also a little stunned.

That was true. Though the meaning of the perfume was wonderful, a product like this wouldn’t be able to keep anything eternal.

After all, what could a bottle of perfume do?

Even a spiritual Dan does not have such an effect. If a perfume could achieve such things, wouldn’t everyone go insane?

Xu Pingting was sure that this judge was here to give her a hard time.

She pursed her lips and said respectfully, “This is simply a wonderful intention and a well-meaning wish to the perfume users. Plus, the most important thing about perfume is its fragrance, right? Even if this perfume doesn’t have those effects, it…”

“Ms. Xu,” Zhang Heng interrupted and said coldly, “You’re an internationally renowned perfumer yet you can make such a statement? The fragrance of the perfume is important. But to be a top-notch product, it has to be able to steal hearts. Fragrance, name, and its meaning need to be all there.”

“I believe most consumers don’t simply buy a perfume due to its fragrance. Consumers also purchase due to its name and what it represents. A product like yours, where the name of the product is not at all related to its product, is meaningless.”

“Plus, the name and the intention should be where you acquired your inspiration. Your product is somehow not at all related to your original inspiration. How can you say it’s a good product if that’s the case?”

“Before, when I first smelled it, I thought it was pretty good, but now it seems like your product today is not as good as what you brought the last two years.”

His words made Xu Pingting’s face turn white.

She was about to explain herself when Zhang Heng’s fatigued face stopped her.
