One-way Passage - Chapter 31

    In the middle of the night, Xia Wennan shut himself in the room to read. Originally it was difficult and obscure professional knowledge, but it was not so difficult for him to understand. He found that that part of his memory was not lost, but more like it was blocked by something. As long as the fog was cleared, it would be transparent in an instant.

    There are a lot of articles about the research and development of Mingyan’s “mood” series of pheromone perfumes in his laptop. At first, Xia Wennan noticed that an insect used as a natural spice has human pheromone receptors in its body. This insect will be affected by human pheromone and emit fragrance, so Xia Wennan directly injected human pheromone extract into the gland of the insect. The pseudopheromone-transmitting substances were then extracted from the secretions of insect glands.

    This pseudo-pheromone transmission substance has a natural fragrance and can be combined with pheromone receptors in the human body. At the beginning, the pheromone expression of this pseudo-pheromone transmission material was single. Xia Wennan led his team to make countless attempts in the laboratory, giving different stimuli to insects, looking for insects of the same genus for cultivation, and finally in the laboratory. Seven stable and “emotional” pseudo-pheromone-transmitting substances were extracted in a strictly controlled laboratory environment.

    This is the origin of the pheromone fragrances “Moods”.

    Now various perfume brands are conducting research and development related to pheromone perfumes, but the research and development patents for the extraction of quasi-pheromone transfer substances are in the hands of Mingyan, and the research and development of other brands is very difficult. Or it should be said that Yan’s success depends entirely on Xia Wennan’s special physique, otherwise, under the influence of pheromones, an Alpha or Omega would not be able to notice the subtle changes in the fragrance secretion of a small insect’s body.

    But for Xia Wennan, the biggest difficulty in the development of pheromone perfumes has been overcome. He has patented technology and a professional team behind him. It should not be difficult to continue to make breakthroughs.

    The document opened on the laptop in front of him is exactly the project plan he submitted. The plan mentioned two newly developed pheromone perfumes, one of which is Alpha perfume “Xishui Zenyuan”, and the other is Neutral fragrance, name to be determined.

    The descriptions of the two fragrances are very simple, and it seems that it is just an unformed idea in Xia Wennan’s head. As for the original idea, Xia Wennan can’t remember at all.

    In the conference room, the marketing department sitting opposite the long table was thinking about boring and tedious data, and Xia Wennan began to feel sleepy.

    He glanced at Ming Luchuan, who was sitting at the front. Ming Luchuan was looking down at the report on the tablet in front of him with a very focused expression. He leaned forward, resting his chest against the table, and raised one arm to support his face.

    The side effects of staying up late last night and reading a book are now starting to show, Xia Wennan fell asleep with his head so propped up.

    He didn’t know how long he slept, his arm slipped and he woke up suddenly, he opened his eyes and sat up straight, and found that everyone else in the conference room had left, only him and Ming Luchuan.

    Ming Luchuan was still sitting in the chairman seat of the conference room, but he leaned back on the back of the chair and looked down at the documents in front of him casually.

    Xia Wennan’s cheeks were flushed, he was a little dazed and asked, “Why are you gone?”

    Ming Luchuan looked up at him: “The meeting is over.”

    “Why don’t you go?” Xia Wennan couldn’t help rubbing his cheeks, and asked this, while thinking that when the meeting just ended, everyone must have noticed that he fell asleep.

    Ming Luchuan did not answer, and said, “Should I call you back for a meeting?”

    “It’s okay,” Xia Wennan replied casually.

    Ming Luchuan looked at him without speaking.

    Xia Wennan was uncomfortable, he silently stretched out his hand to clean up the things on the table and wanted to leave the conference room.

    Just as he stood up, Ming Luchuan asked, “Sleep late recently?”

    Xia Wennan looked at him suspiciously: “What? I don’t have it, how do you know? You peeped at me?”

    Ming Luchuan’s face turned gloomy, and he raised his chin slightly: “Do I need to spy on you?”

    Xia Wennan said: “I closed the door how do you know I didn’t sleep?”

    “…” Ming Luchuan seemed to be trying his best to endure, and finally he couldn’t help but say: “There is a light shining through under your door.”

    “Xia Wennan!” Ming Luchuan sat up straight.

    Xia Wennan took a step back: “If you have something to say, don’t do it.”

    Ming Luchuan threw the two documents on the desktop to one place, stood up and walked towards the door, saying, “Give me the documents and bring them to the office.”

    Xia Wennan originally wanted to go back to his office in the R&D department, but after hearing Ming Luchuan’s order, he reluctantly picked up the folder on the desktop and followed Ming Luchuan to the outside.

    Out of the conference room, Xia Wennan met the beautiful Omega female secretary of Ming Luchuan. As soon as she saw Xia Wennan, she smiled and said, “Manager Xia, let me get it for you.”

    Ming Luchuan walked in front, without turning his head, he threw a cold sentence: “He takes it himself.”

    The female secretary immediately retracted the outstretched hand, with a sweet smile on her face: “Manager Xia, walk slowly.”

    Entering Ming Luchuan’s office, Xia Wennan put the folder in his hand on the desk and asked, “Is there anything else? I’m leaving.”

    Ming Luchuan sat down on the chair and said to Xia Wennan, “Come here.”

    Xia Wennan looked at him across the large desk in the room: “What are you doing?”

    Ming Luchuan glanced at Xia Wennan from head to toe, and suddenly rang the call bell on the table.

    There was a knock on the door soon, and Xu Feng’s voice sounded outside the door at the same time: “Mr. Ming?”

    Ming Luchuan said: “Come in.”

    Xu Feng opened the door and entered.

    Ming Luchuan said to Xu Feng, “Take him to have his hair cut tomorrow morning, it’s too long.”

    Xia Wennan frowned: “Who? Me?”

    “Who else is here?”

    Xia Wennan raised his hand and touched his hair, it was indeed a little long, but it was still within the range he could bear, he said: “I don’t think it is long, and I don’t need anyone else to bring it. I’ll cut it.”

    Ming Luchuan looked up at him and asked Xu Feng after a while, “What time does tomorrow’s dinner start?”

    Xu Feng replied, “Seven thirty.”

    Ming Luchuan nodded, and then said to Xia Wennan, “There will be a charity dinner at 7:30 tomorrow night, you and I will attend.”

    “Charity dinner?” Xia Wennan was suddenly curious.

    Xu Feng asked softly, “Do you need to prepare clothes for Mr. Xia?”

    Ming Luchuan looked at Xia Wennan: “You should have a dress for the dinner party, or prepare a new set.”

    Xia Wennan didn’t care much about the dress, he bent down on the table, approached Ming Luchuan and asked, “Am I going with you?”

    “Who else are you going with?”

      “Xia Wennan said the last two words with a bit of shame, and he couldn’t speak clearly.

    Ming Luchuan did not answer.

    Xu Feng said: “You are Mr. Ming’s partner and a well-known pheromone perfume developer in the perfume industry.”

    Xia Wennan was suddenly curious, turned his head and asked Xu Feng: “Is he the father of pheromone perfume?”

    Xu Feng was stunned for a moment before answering, “Maybe someone calls you that.”

    Xia Wennan patted his chest: “Fortunately, no one said I was the mother of pheromone perfume.” He thought it was his fault for marrying an Alpha.

    “Is it important to be the father or the mother?” Ming Luchuan’s cold voice sounded.

    Xia Wennan smiled at him: “It doesn’t matter, it’s just a personal choice, it doesn’t matter at all.” After speaking, he stood up from the desk and patted Xu Feng on the shoulder: “Going to get a haircut tomorrow morning.”

    He really wanted to go to the charity dinner to see and see.
