Chapter 581
Out of curiosity, Lily got up and approached the group.
When she got closer, she could finally see what was in the middle. It was a piece of least that was what
it looked like.
grass–at
“You don’t understand! Take a proper sniff if you don’t believe me!” The girl refused to back down. She
held her head up high as if the piece of grass was something rare.
This attracted sneers from the people around. “Forget it. This is just a piece of grass. I’m sure it’ll just
smell like grass anyway. What else could it smell like? Barbeque sauce? Hahaha.”
Immediately, a burst of laughter followed. Some onlookers patted the girl on the shoulder.” Forget it. It’s
not embarrassing to admit defeat, but if you persist like this, it’s a little embarrassing…”
At this point, everyone was probably bored as the victory was clear–cut. Slowly, they began to
disperse, and no one paid attention to the girl’s grass.
Once everyone left, Lily thought it was a good time to approach the girl, who had her head bowed and
was chewing her lips. Lily walked in front of her and sat down across from her.
“You are?” The girl raised her head and gave her a puzzled look.
“Sorry, I overheard the game.” Lily shrugged and leaned forward. “Can I…smell this?”
The girl stared at Lily hesitantly, with her gaze that was filled with vigilance. However, Lily couldn’t care
less about that. She was more interested in the thing on the table.
She knew that everything in nature had its unique scent. Every plant and every tree could be used as
raw materials when it came to perfume making. However, some might be ordinary, while some were
special. Some were easy to extract, and others would take a longer time.
It might be something special for this girl to insist that this piece of grass had a unique scent. and that it
was better than her opponent’s. Lily leaned closer and took a deep breath.
Indeed, it had a very light, grassy aroma. It might have lost its freshness after being pulled out. from the
soil for so long that it looked withered.
After thinking about it, Lily reached out to touch it.
“Hey…” The girl wanted to stop her, fearing she might ruin it, but Lily was a step faster.
After a closer look, Lily pinched the tip with her fingernails, and a little juice stained her. finger.
However, the smell of the juice was completely different from the initial whiff she had.
Although the initial grassy smell was nothing out of the ordinary, its aroma was utterly different. It had
hints of floral to it, but it was extremely light. It could only be picked up if one actually paid attention to
it.
It took Lily to pinch the grass before it gave off the smell. It was no wonder the crowd just now did not
find it remarkable. However, it did not matter if other people found it special. Lily liked
it!
“Where did you find this?” Lily asked, looking at the girl.

“Why?” Although Lily seemed friendly, she was still a stranger after all. The girl did not let her guard
down.
“Nothing, I think it smells great, so I wanted to ask.”
Hearing this, surprise flashed through the girl’s eyes. She was shocked that someone had finally
recognized her goods. However, her reaction in the next second was to snatch that piece of grass out
of Lily’s hand.
“You….think it smells great?”
“Yeah. Although the smell is very light, I think it’ll linger. It smells unique as well. Once it’s refined, I’m
sure it’ll form a greater scent,” Lily expressed, nodding as she spoke.
