Chapter 177: The Contrast Between Them Spells the Difference
Such a stage mistake was completely unheard of ever since Bai Xinxin’s debut as a model.
For a brief moment, she stood dumbfounded on stage, not knowing what to do next.
It was not until the staff gestured at her as a signal to retreat from stage that she finally reacted and turned around to leave the runway.
The audience was in an uproar.
“What’s up with Bai Xinxin? I can’t believe she actually stayed on the runway past her allocated time on stage!”
“I guess she must’ve reckoned that no one would seriously put up a good show in a mere competition for rookies? That’s why she couldn’t be bothered to do a good job! All she cared about was to make money off this gig, how unprofessional!”
“Did you just realize that she is completely unprofessional? If you had paid attention to her footwork when she first appeared on stage, how can you even call that a legitimate catwalk? Didn’t that look more like she was taking a casual walk in the wilderness instead?”
“That’s right! That’s right! Try recalling those poses she made at the fixed points on the runway. Did they even look like a professional model’s poses? She totally looked like a temptress trying to seduce men instead! How unsightly!”
In fact, after enjoying years of popularity, Bai Xinxin’s professional standards were indeed getting subpar as time passed. Not to mention, her catwalk was getting worse.
Ironically, news of her acting like an arrogant big shot often made the headlines instead.
Most people who worked with her had long grown to detest her for her lack of professionalism, but they all kept quiet about it because she was still the top model of the industry by domestic standards.
Thanks to Bai Xinxin further toppling her own reputation this time, negative comments and criticism immediately came swarming at her like a furious tide.
Bai Xinxin could not even bear to raise her head when she retreated from the runway and could only walk away as fast as she could.
In the end, she almost tripped, so she stumbled around as she ran down the runway.
Seeing this, even Sheng Yu’s face became as dark as the bottom of a wok.
“What the h*ll is Bai Xinxin doing? So much for our preplanned stage rhythm! Thanks to her messing up her own part and wasting so much time, how are the models coming up supposed to perform their part now?”
To be fair, Bai Xinxin had only wasted a little more than a minute.
However, for a fashion show that revolved around well-timed rhythm like this, every model’s appearance and presentation timing had to stick precisely to the prearranged timing. Aside from the models’ catwalk, the lighting, music, and the overall management had to be perfectly coordinated. Even a timing missed by a margin of merely ten seconds would become an irreparable mistake.
This meant that Bai Xinxin had single-handedly ruined the entire fashion show just from her carelessness!
“Quick, get the last two models to come on stage! Replay the previous part of the music for a few more seconds. We have to keep it steady and grasp the rhythm back!”
Sheng Yu was secretly breaking out a cold sweat for Luo Chenxi.
Not only had Bai Xinxin ruined Wu Lingshan’s presentation, she also made things worse for Luo Chenxi’s presentation which was supposed to come up directly after Wu Lingshan’s turn.
If Luo Chenxi’s models could not improvise, it would all be over for them.
At this moment, Fang Ziqian appeared on stage.
She was wearing a gown designed by Luo Chenxi, and it had silver tassels that glittered brightly under the lights.
The fishtail-shaped skirt outlined her tall and perfect figure.
Her appearance stunned the crowd.
Her footwork was steady and firm, every step taken was on point.
Fang Ziqian quickened her footwork to make up for the time Bai Xinxin had wasted earlier, so her entire catwalk sequence was almost twice as fast as the previous models. Yet, her entire figure did not seem the least bit shaken by her quickened footwork.
What was more impressive was the tassels on her gown that swayed naturally from side to side with the music rhythm without Fang Ziqian intentionally wobbling her body. The swaying tassels redirected streams of dazzling lights into the eyes of the crowd.
The audience who were still talking about Bai Xinxin’s mistake instantly got drawn in.
After a brief moment of trance, they all raised their cameras and tapped furiously on the shutter.
“This… Now this is what a catwalk should look like! What the heck was it that Bai Xinxin did just now?”
“Who is this model? Why haven’t I seen her before? Could she be a supermodel who came back from abroad?”
“Their contrast spells the difference between the two. How dare Bai Xinxin call herself the number one supermodel? Isn’t she embarrassed for calling herself that?”
“The little gown she’s wearing is also very beautiful. It has elegance that doesn’t overshadow its lively vibe! Now that I look at it again, the one on Bai Xinxin was totally a nouveau riche’s outfit!”
Wu Lingshan almost fainted from anger when she heard these words.
Never in her dreams did she expect Bai Xinxin to make such a big fool of herself and for Luo Chenxi to have such an outstanding model!
‘D*mn you, Xing Chen! Where exactly did you find that model?’ Wu Lingshan gnashed her teeth. ‘Nevermind, it doesn’t matter how good your female model is. With Shao Mingyi gone, let’s see which male model you managed to get to catwalk for you!’
