Yao Mengqingâs breathing quickened. She forced herself to calm down and squeezed out a smile. âTm really sorry, Ah Zheng. I was too impatient and didnât take the time to understand the situation. I didnât expect Yun Chu to agree to the collaboration. Congratulations!â
Gu Zheng ignored her.
Yao Mengqing suddenly thought of something. âLi City is going to hold a jewelry design exhibition soon. Will Yun Chu be participating?â
Qiao Xi instantly understood this womanâs thoughts and said directly, âNo.â
âXi Xi, how do you know so much? Do you know Yun Chu?â Yao Mengqing smiled slightly. âI heard that Yun Chu has a proud character and is unrestrained. She has very high standards too. Seeing as Xi Xi and Yun Chu are so close, could it be that Xi Xi has an outstanding talent in jewelry design too?â
Lin Jie also understood what Yao Mengqing meant and hurriedly chimed in, âYes! Miss Qiao, if you know Yun Chu, you must also know jewelry design?â
Qiao Xi replied unhurriedly, âHow could I be as skilled as Miss Yao?â
Acold glint flashed in Yao Menggqingâs eyes as she said gently, âXi Xi, I heard that you originally signed up for this competition, but for some reason, you withdrew. Since Yun Chu isnât participating, itâll be good for you to represent her!â
Qiao Xi raised her eyebrows. âMiss Yao, do you find it meaningful to beat around the bush?â
Yao Menggingâs face was filled with embarrassment, but she quickly recovered and said affectionately, âXi Xi, I donât have any ill intentions. Iâm just curious as to why you suddenly gave up after registering. Since you signed up, it means that youâre interested in jewelry design. Actually, the rankings arenât
important at all. If youâre interested, you should just participate!
âMoreover, youâre Yun Chuâs friend! You must be very capable. Maybe your design will be favored by the judges.â
Lin Jie also tried to persuade her. âYes, itâs rare for Li City to hold a jewelry design competition. Donât miss this opportunity.â
These two people spoke one after another. On the surface, they seemed to be kindly encouraging Qiao Xi, but it was actuallyâ¦
Qiao Xi was naturally able to see through Yao Mengqingâs thoughts. Yao Mengging did not see her name on the list, so she thought Qiao Xi had withdrawn from the competition.
Those who quit at the last minute either had health issues or did not have the confidence to participate in the competition. Hence, Yao Mengqing thought that Qiao Xi was afraid and did not have confidence in her jewelry design skills.
Hence, Yao Mengging and Lin Jie were taking tums to encourage her to participate in the competition. When the time came, Yao Mengging would trample on her in public and elevate herself. It would highlight the gap between the two of them.
How thoughtful!
Qiao Xi lost her mind and roared furiously. âItâs just a competition! Iâll participate!â
Seeing that she had agreed, Yao Mengging revealed a satisfied smile. âXi Xi, the results of the competition donât matter. Whatâs important is the process. It doesnât matter even if your design isnât good. Youâre still so young, so you still have many chances to succeed.
âJewelry design is different from other crafts. It requires a lot of investment. I donât think you underwent formal learning, but you donât have to be afraid. Itâs normal to fail. Actually, itâs already very outstanding that you have the courage to participate.ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
After a round of hypocritical comforting, Yao Mengqing turned to look at Gu Zheng. âItâs just a pity that I canât work with President Gu anymore. Iâm sorry to have disturbed you.â
Yao Mengqing and Lin Jie stood up and left. When they reached the door, Lin Jie said unwillingly, âMengqing, whatâs the point of comforting Qiao Xi? She wonât remember your kind gestures. In any case, youâll definitely be the champion this time. Itâs uncertain if Qiao Xi can even get on the ranking. She
might even lose miserably!â
âah Jie
âam I wrong? Apart from Yun Chu, who else can compare to you? Iâve seen all the contestants this time. There are only a few famous designers, and none of them are as capable as you. Youâre the most famous one. Itâs impossible that the judges wonât show you any respect.â
Qiao Xi pricked up her ears and clearly heard what the two of them were talking about.
Yao Mengqing was so confident. Without Yun Chu, would she definitely be the champion?
âIf donât reveal my identity, I donât think youâll ever shut up!â
Yao Mengqing was really an unkillable cockroach. She did not learn her lesson even after getting humiliated multiple times. It seemed that Qiao Xi had to teach her a fierce lesson this time. She would use Yun Chuâs identity to slap her face!
Who could compete with Yun Chu when she appeared?
