Just as Xin He expected, the news of the Hu Ren causing a scene had quickly spread throughout the capital. After all, grape wine was a novel and popular product in the capital city. The Hu Ren had intentionally caused a scene, accusing Xin He of stealing their technique. They were seizing on this popularity.
Even without concrete evidence, the spread of rumors was enough to stir up endless discussion and suspicion which could severely damage Qinghe's store reputation, and this was their intention.
However, what they didn't expect was that Xin He, sharp-tongued as she was, introduced a new product in public. The moment Xin He unveiled her series of fruit wine, grape wine became just a small part of this series. It was a brewing technique that even the Hu Ren couldn't replicate, who would dare to question her?
