At this moment, I felt a beam of gaze looking at me. I looked up and saw Jiang Cheng smiling at me.

Jiang Cheng's smile was as usual, no difference, but it made my irritable and uneasy heart surprisingly calm.

Before Jiang Cheng's eyes could be withdrawn, another gaze appeared on me again.

I looked at that gaze in confusion and found that it was Bai Ye.

Looking at the words of the special judges on Bai Ye’s desk, I suddenly realized that Bai Ye, like Jiang Cheng, was also invited to be the judges.

There were two people with close relationships in the judges' seat, and I felt a little more confident.

In addition to the specially invited judges, the other judges are all masters in fashion design. I have seen many famous masters in the world.

After a simple self-introduction, I began to introduce my design concept.

Because the theme of this competition is haute couture dress, my work is a black strapless dress, and above the waist, it is just a simple black one without any decoration.

But below the waist, handmade black yarn is sewn on the skirt, and some stars made of broken diamonds are dotted on the yarn. When the light is dim, a faint soft light blooms in the skirt.

It is simple and scheming, elegant and playful, and joyful and solemn.

The inspiration for this work comes from the starry sky that Jiang Cheng and I saw for the first time.

On the black curtain, there were stars, as if you could touch it with your hand. It was the first time in my life that I saw such a beautiful starry sky.

And I also call this evening dress of my starry sky dress.

I finished speaking the concept of change that had been practiced in my mind, and a overwhelming voice sounded from the judges' seat.

I blushed and thanked everyone excitedly.

Starting from the left, the judges started to score. When I looked at the 9 points of the first judge, I was so excited that my heart almost jumped out of my chest.

Immediately afterwards, the other judges also raised their own scores. I took a preliminary look and found that they were basically above 9 points.

Jiang Cheng and Bai Ye’s scores are also average, not too high or too low.

Seeing this, I suddenly felt relieved.

At first I was worried that because of the relationship, they would deliberately give me high scores, but now it seems that the two of them still have their own principles.

After thanking me again, I followed the host's prompt to step down and go back to the lounge.

By the time I had calmed down, my face was still a little red.

The people who had already finished the competition surrounded me and asked me how it was.

"It should be okay." I said vaguely.

Although I feel good about myself, I don’t know what the final result will be, everything is unknown.

"Now you are laughing happily, you will be crying later." Sophia sneered.

I rolled my eyes in my heart. Sophia couldn't make it through if she didn't make trouble for me all day.

Soon, the competition ended, and the abbot, all of us participated, went to the front desk to sit.

The host said passionately before he announced the award rankings.

The competition is divided into three rankings, one person is the first, two people are the second, and three people are the third.

Starting from the third place, the person who called the name jumped up excitedly, while the person who did not call it started crying quietly.

Until the third place was announced, my name was not shown.

I felt that I performed well, so I kept comforting myself that I might be in second place.

Sophia, who was sitting next to me, heard my words and said contemptuously: "Just because you want to get second place, for the next life."

I ignored Sofia, looked at the stage, clasped my hands tightly, and my palms were covered in sweat.

"Next, we start announcing the second winner this time, Lee—"

Hearing this word, my neck stretched out and looked at the stage, and silently chanted: Ruoyao.

"Miss Li Qing."

I fell back to the chair in disappointment, and my mouth felt bitter.

"Miss Sophia, let us congratulate them on their second place."

I completely gave up when I heard that Sofia also won the second place.

Now there is only the first place left, and even Sophia has to be second. I can't be the first one, right?

"Miss Sophia, please come on stage to receive the award."

When I heard the abbot, I looked at Sophia at the stern face and looked unhappy when I saw her gloomy face.

I couldn't help but sigh that people like Sophia were unhappy when they won the award, but I didn't even have the qualification to win the award.

The abbot called several times before Sofia stood up and walked towards the stage.

"Now we are starting to announce the number one this time, who do you guess it will be?"

I leaned on the chair with a lack of interest. No matter who I was, I could not be the first.

Thinking that before coming, I had shamelessly told Joseph that he would win a prize, I wanted to find a piece of tofu to kill myself. If I had known that I would not brag at that time.

I pulled my hair irritably and suddenly heard someone calling me.

"what?"

After saying that, I remembered that it was a competition now, so I quickly closed my mouth and became an ostrich-shaped one.

The abbot was stunned for a moment, coughed lightly before saying, "Miss Li Ruoyao, you won the first place, please come on stage to receive the award."

Wait, he just said I got the first place?

At my level, I thought I could win third place, but now I told me that I got first place and won Sophia, and I always feel unreal.

I pinched my palm hard, and the severe pain made my mind clear.

"Miss Li Ruoyao."

"Oh...ah...just come."

I walked towards the stage with a weak step, and every step was like stepping on cotton.

When I passed by the other contestants, I saw that their faces were different, and Sophia's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot. The look of looking at me was indignation and disbelief.

The host talked a lot and asked me to speak again. I didn't know what I said throughout the whole process, I only remembered that I got the first place.

Soon, a special guest came to present us with an award.

Jiang Cheng slowly walked towards me with the trophy, handed it to me, and said softly in my ear: "Congratulations."

I returned a bright smile to Jiang Cheng and smiled like a mentally retarded person holding the trophy.

From the competition venue to the way home, I asked Jiang Cheng tirelessly: "Do I really get the first place?"

Jiang Cheng answered me with no worries: "You are the first, the real first."

I hugged the trophy happily and silently said to myself: No one can say that I am not qualified to stand beside Jiang Cheng in the future.

As soon as he got home, all the servants in the villa stood in two rows and said in unison: "Congratulations to the young lady for winning the competition."

There was an unstoppable smile on my face. Later, Jiang Cheng told me that I smiled like a fool that day.

However, the happy thing didn't last long and was broken by a news in the evening.
Chapter completed!
