Chapter 126: You Dare Compete With Me For The First Place? You Better Watch Yourself!
Sheng Yu, of all people, was the one who said those words.
No matter how unwilling Wu Lingshan was, she could not change his decision.
What’s more, despite the fact that no one dared to gossip about her thanks to her family background, she noticed that the other participants started looking at her in a different way from before.
Some people even started surrounding Luo Chenxi in an attempt to cotton up to her.
Wu Lingshan was so angry that she almost choked from the rage in her chest.
Looking at Luo Chenxi as she got surrounded by the crowd, she could not bear with the sight of it any longer and turned around to walk out of the exhibition hall.
She had no intention of bearing witness to such a scene.
However, when she reached the door, she suddenly saw a familiar figure in the corner.
Zuo Xiaoqing was looking at the crowd with hatred and unwillingness in her eyes.
Wu Lingshan stopped in her tracks and narrowed her eyes.
A new plan formulated in her mind.
“Zuo Xiaoqing!” Wu Lingshan called out to her.
“Ah? Miss… Miss Wu, are you calling me?”
Zuo Xiaoqing became surprised at her call.
Wu Lingshan walked to her side and glanced at her. “Since your score is so low, you’re definitely getting eliminated this time. So let me ask you this, do you still want to get into the finals of the Hua Feng Competition?”
Zuo Xiaoqing was obviously stunned for a moment, and then her eyes lit up.
“Wh… what? I can still make it to the finals? Miss Wu, do you have any ideas…”
Wu Lingshan said, “You came out on the bottom place , it’s impossible for you to force your way into the finals, so it’s a no go. However, if you’re willing to do me a favor, I can allow you to join the finals as my assistant.”
During the finals, every participant’s work had to be displayed on a fashion show.
This was not something that a designer could pull off alone. It involved a stylist, models, and a lot of assistance from the staff.
Therefore, participants were allowed to hire assistants for the finals.
Although the assistants did not have to be official participants, as long as a designer won the grand prize, the respective assistants’ social status would rise along with the tide.
Zuo Xiaoqing originally thought that she no longer stood a chance at the competition, but she never thought that there would still be a chance for her to turn things around.
She immediately became excited, “Miss Wu, I’m willing, of course I’m willing! If you can make me your assistant, I’ll do anything you want!”
Seeing Zuo Xiaoqing’s obsequious look, Wu Lingshan’s gloomy mood finally eased up a little.
“Alright, Don’t you hate participant no. 7 as well? As long as you do as I say, you’ll be able avenge yourself!”
Wu Lingshan explained her plan to Zuo Xiaoqing while glancing coldly at Luo Chenxi.
How dare Luo Chenxi compete with her for the first place? She better watch herself!
…
After another hour, all seven judges finished their reviews on all the booths.
It was clear as day to everybody—The first place this time was definitely participant no. 7, Xin Chen!
And she might even be the only person in the history of the Hua Feng Competition who ever had a perfect score.
Sheng Yu took the statistics sheet from the staff and coughed lightly.
“Ahem, I shall announce the list of designers who will enter the finals: First place, no. 7, Xin Chen, with a total of 70 points; second place, Wu Lingshan, with a total of 64 points; third place…”
The participants had long been mentally prepared for the results, but those who got eliminated still felt very disappointed.
Everyone looked at Luo Chenxi with envious eyes.
Even though this was not the finals, Luo Chenxi, being able to be praised and acknowledged by Sheng Yu, would definitely be able to make a name for herself in the fashion industry in the future.
“To the ten participants entering the finals of the Hua Feng Competition, when you get back, be sure to…”
Halfway through his speech, someone suddenly shouted, “Chief Sheng, please wait! I have something important to say!”
Sheng Yu glanced in the direction of the voice and realized that it was Zuo Xiaoqing who spoke. He could not help but frowned. “Please keep quiet.”
“Chief Sheng, my matter is really important, so I have to say it now!” Zuo Xiaoqing stretched out her arm and pointed at Luo Chenxi. “I’d like to report participant no. 7, Xin Chen! She has a bad personality and she should not be qualified for the finals!”
Sheng Yu’s face darkened. “What do you mean?”
Zuo Xiaoqing raised her chin. “I saw it with my own eyes. She stole a diamond bracelet from participant no. 1’s booth when everyone was listening to the judges’ reviews!”
