Taming The Hidden Bigshot By Kissing Him-Chapter 596: Who Would Take the Initiative to Show Up and Get Humiliated?

Chapter 596: Chapter 596: Who Would Take the Initiative to Show Up and Get Humiliated?

Huo Sijiao turned her head to look at Pei Chun, who had interrupted her speech, with a displeased face.

"Miss Pei, what wisdom do you have to impart?"

She and Pei Chun were at odds, never seeing eye to eye, and that woman even tried to run her over with a car last time, causing her to sprain her ankle.

"Nothing particularly wise. Just heard that you’re opening a beauty salon and have been eager to break into the Imperial Capital’s socialite circle. This is the Imperial Capital, not Haicheng." Pei Chun said to the daughters of wealthy families, "Don’t believe her nonsense! Anyone who takes over Furong Beauty Salon on Wolt Avenue goes out of business!"

The socialites laughed and said, "Miss Pei, don’t worry. There are so many beauty salons in the Imperial Capital. We usually stick to our regular ones with pre-paid services, we wouldn’t switch salons easily."

"I was wondering why Miss Huo added my contact information, turns out she was soliciting customers."

"Miss Huo, the beauty circle in the Imperial Capital is well-established. Your influence in Haicheng may not work here. Unless you really have the skill, but which salon’s beauticians do you plan to poach? Do you have a star product? It’s not the scar removal product you privately contacted me about, is it?"

These wealthy daughters weren’t easy to fool; their previous beauty salons had yearly investments of millions, and they definitely wouldn’t change their go-to place so readily.

The beauty salon business is fraught with depth, and they cherish their faces dearly.

Pei Chun listened to their discussion, a smile curling up at the corners of her mouth.

Huo Sijiao, listening to their conversation, was not the least bit flustered at heart.

It’s like someone’s bringing a pillow when you want to sleep!

Her eyes eagerly fixed on Pei Chun; who would have thought someone would come forward and be slapped in the face?

There was no longer any need for Sun Weimeng to join in a double act.

Pei Chun, thinking that she was furious out of embarrassment, intensified her attack: "Where is your scar removal product? If it’s really that effective, why haven’t you removed her burn scar, instead covering it up with a sheer veil?"

Pei Chun looked at Qiao Xi: "With such standards, still advertising the salon’s star product as scar removal effectiveness! Ha-ha, I think the money invested in opening the beauty salon is going down the drain."

As everyone knows.

Under everyone’s gaze during the Medical Trial Convention.

Qiao Xi was burned by Li Songwen, and such burn injuries are almost impossible to heal.

"Ye Ying, show everyone your burn. Your Ye Family also has influence and resources, sought out National Doctors and went through intensive technological treatments, has the scar on your neck healed completely?"

Pei Chun pointed at a shy and timid girl among the crowd, laughing as she said, "Come on, show everyone."

Ye Ying bit her lip, her eyes reddening as she stepped back.

She was scalded on her neck and collarbone by boiling water poured by a resentful nanny when she was a child, leaving unsightly scars on her upper body. She normally wouldn’t dare to show her face at social events and was forced to come out by her family this time.

Among these wealthy daughters, she was the most tightly wrapped.

The high-collar dress wrapped her neck, collarbone, and arms tightly—so air-tight that it kept everything out of sight.

"Pei Chun, you say your piece, but there’s no need to drag Ye Ying into it," Ye Ying’s good friend spoke up on her behalf.

Pei Chun huffed coldly: "I just want to tell you all how fake the beauty salon advertised by these two women is. No beauty salon in the whole Imperial Capital dares to make such claims about their scar removal products. But they assert so confidently; if..."

Qiao Xi looked at her and pulled off the bow on her right arm covered with sheer fabric.

The ribbon fell.

A soft voice followed suit: "Who says our scar removal product doesn’t work?"

Everyone saw that the once hideous burn scar had faded considerably and reduced in size.

No hyperplastic scars.

The surrounding skin was fair and smooth, showing that in time the remaining marks might also disappear.

Even if they did not vanish completely, a mere touch of foundation would cover them up.

This... was truly astounding!

Being able to achieve such a degree of scar removal effect, it’s no wonder that this crowd of socialites and heiresses are going wild!

Pei Chun’s expression became stiff.

"Impossible! She must have used a lot of concealer, it’s fake! How could such a severe burn possibly become so faint!"

Qiao Xi let out a light, gentle smile: "Isn’t it easy to find out whether it’s concealer or not with a try?"

One of the heiresses stepped forward and touched her arm, leaving no trace with her fingertip.

"It’s not concealer, this is real!"

"My god! Have you seen how this patch of skin has also become so much whiter and more delicate? What exactly is this product, not only does it have a good scar removal effect, but it also whitens the skin so nicely? Is it temporary or permanent?"

"Do you need injections? Does it involve surgery? Does it hurt?"

"For the sake of beauty, what’s a little pain? Doctor Qiao, Miss Huo, please hurry up and tell us what it is!"

Huo Sijiao, with her chin lifted, glanced at the dumbfounded Pei Chun and said, "This is the Jade Skin Ointment, a beauty recipe obtained by my sister-in-law and the National Doctor Cheng Han from ancient medical texts, and painstakingly improved after careful research.

My sister-in-law could ensure that the wounds leave no scars only because she has been taking care of them with the Jade Skin Ointment. This past week, we have already recruited quite a few volunteers to test it. And we’ve also sent samples for testing, and they contain no harmful substances."

"After testing, this product indeed has the effect of scar removal and beautification. However, due to the limited supply of the product, our beauty salon will sell it in limited quantities, exclusively available to Diamond Card customers. But I’m fortunate with all of you here today, sisters who take my business card to the store can try it for free once."

"As you can see the effects for yourselves, it’s no trick! No need for surgery, no need for injections, we should believe in the essence passed down by our ancestors!"

Once Huo Sijiao finished speaking, she was immediately surrounded by the socialites and heiresses.

"Miss Huo, give me a business card!"

"Me too, give me one!"

"I want one too!"

Huo Sijiao smiled so widely her mouth couldn’t close—this effect was too good.

"Don’t rush, let’s do this one by one." She distributed the business cards one by one, unapologetically riding the popularity wind created by the sensation in Wolt Avenue.

Qiao Xi watched her busily handing out cards and smiled. Suddenly, her evening dress was gently tugged on.

"Um..." The girl named Ye Ying pursed her lips and mustered the courage to ask softly, "How much do I need to top up for a Diamond Card?"

Qiao Xi couldn’t help but soften her voice, speaking gently, "The Diamond Card requires a top-up of one million, but you can first try it out before making a decision. Our beauty salon still needs some time before its grand opening."

Ye Ying shook her head: "No, I... I want to top up for a Diamond Card. Today!"

For years, she had been too self-conscious about her scars.

She didn’t want to face other people’s strange looks every time, even when not visible, she would still be the subject of ridicule.

"Okay, I’ll have Jiaojiao take care of it for you. You’re our first Diamond Card customer, so you’ll enjoy a grand opening gift package."

"What’s in the gift package?"

Qiao Xi played coy, "You’ll find out when the time comes."

Huo Sijiao squeezed her way out from the crowd, her face beaming with joy: "Sister-in-law, a grand success with the first shot! The first step is already a success, now we just have to wait for the beauty salon’s grand opening! I can’t wait to see the scene on that day!"

She even said to Pei Chun, "Thank you, Miss Pei. It’s thanks to your doubts that my proof is so powerful!"

Pei Chun’s face twisted with anger.

Qiao Xi tugged at her hand, smiling and saying, "Take care of Miss Ye for me."

"Sure."

Huo Sijiao took Ye Ying aside to talk.

Qiao Xi’s peripheral vision caught a familiar figure turning from the banquet hall into an archway of latticed flower walls; she hesitated for a moment and followed.
