The change in the competition theme meant all her previous preparations had been in vain. Her mind was now a mess, unable to think of anything for the moment.

Ye Xiyuan felt her heart descend into chaos as she watched the others begin contemplating their designs while she remained confounded.

She then suddenly recalled Ye Lengan, who had just been seated among the judges. It must have been Ye Lengan who did this. Ye Lengan knew she was reborn, so she likely guessed she was aware of the intended theme and thus changed it.

What should she do now? The first-place design she remembered was useless with the new theme.

No, she absolutely could not lose this fashion design competition. It was her sole chance without the system’s help. Failing to win first prize here would probably cost her any standing in the Ye family going forward.

It was obvious her father was already quite displeased over her lost backing from Nangong Xuyao. Only her demonstrated design talent had earned his good graces lately. The moment she lost value to him, her coming days in the household were predictable.

Struggling to calm herself, Ye Xiyuan tried recalling some relevant designs set to debut after a few years in her past life. Finally, a spark of inspiration hit. She remembered a stunning gown unveiled at Paris Fashion Week a year later, aptly suiting this banquet theme.

The memory brought a confident, proud smile to Ye Xuyuan’s lips. She could recall the huge splash made by that dress on release. And she intended to bring a similarly impactful sense of brilliance today. If she could render that gown, it would surely prove even more eye-catching than the previous winner’s work. Everyone would be amazed at her talent.

At that point, even a judge like Ye Lengan could not possibly suppress her design – not without incurring mass resentment.

Hmph! Did Ye Lengan think changing the theme last minute would contain her? She would force Ye Lengan to see her skills, to recognize her potency. Ironically, Ye Lengan’s interference was about to ensure her success.

She only wondered if the knowledge might anger Ye Lengan to death when the time came!

Inside the venue, designers busily worked as those waiting outside agonized anxiously.

The outer screens showed the inner workings. After his talk with Ye Lengan, Ye Li felt not relief but gnawing disquiet and worry. Though he told himself Ye Lengan spouted nonsense, slandering Xiyuan out of spite, doubts still plagued him.

When he saw Ye Xiyuan wholly absorbed in her drafting though, exuding

confidence, his heart settled somewhat.

He also cursed internally. Ye Lengan had plainly tried riling him earlier. If Ye Leng’an’s claims held truth, Xiyuan would be anxious now, mind blank.

Instead, she brimmed with assurance, no sign of creative hindrance.

Clearly, Ye Lengan had spun lies, seeking only to unsettle him.

Watching the same display, Ye Lengan lifted her brows at Ye Xiyuan’s composure. Surprised, yes…but not too much so. Ye Xiyuan had lived an entire past life, after all. The Ye family’s fashion focus meant she certainly kept abreast of industry developments before. With her experience, quickly pivoting designs to match an altered theme was unremarkable.

Ye Lengan only wondered which original works she might be plagiarizing this time..
