Chapter 160: Chapter 160: Stunning the Audience Chapter 160: Chapter 160: Stunning the Audience Zhou Jingya stood there, not knowing whether to stay or leave. Leaving would admit she had bad breath, but staying meant she would be confronted by Nan Qiao and Rong Yan, and she was so angry that she wished she could scratch Hua Nanqiao’s beautiful face. Liu Yanfang clacked over in her high heels. Even the sound of her steps conveyed her anger. “You shameless woman, who did you say has bad breath!” Liu Yanfang pointed at Nan Qiao and started to curse. Rong Yan couldn’t stand it, and his anger flared up, “Ma’am, can’t we even state facts now? Your daughter’s breath stinks; she should have gotten it treated sooner!” At this moment, the event staff arrived, looking serious at Zhou Jingya, “If you don’t want to compete, leave immediately!” Zhou Jingya softened, pulling on Liu Yanfang’s arm, “Mom, stop it.” As soon as Zhou Jingya spoke, Liu Yanfang subconsciously covered her nose. Not only that, but the staff also covered their noses, “Your breath really does stink. How can anyone stand it when you talk like that!” Zhou Jingya: ? She breathed onto her hand and sniffed, and it did smell really bad. Nan Qiao smiled mischievously; as Zhou Jingya approached, she stood up and unintentionally waved her hand, scattering the powder onto Zhou Jingya. Most of it went into her opening and closing mouth. Thus, Zhou Jingya’s breath did stink. And it wasn’t just a regular stink; it was extraordinarily foul. Now Zhou Jingya panicked, and she was too ashamed to talk to anyone. The staff frowned and said, “It’s time for the competitors to return to their places; the competition is about to begin!” Zhou Jingya covered her face and ran away, and Liu Yanfang, holding her nose, chased after her. Rong Yan was dumbfounded. He hadn’t smelled anything foul in the air at first. So... had Nan Qiao done something to make Zhou Jingya’s breath stink? Rong Yan widened his eyes, disbelieving as he looked at Nan Qiao. Nan Qiao smiled and didn’t say a word. Rong Yan: She admitted it! Nan Qiao (⊙_⊙)? ... After Zhou Jingya returned, she dared not speak. Taking a mask from Liu Qing, Zhou Jingya’s eyes were full of rage. Liu Qing furrowed her brow and asked, “Who exactly did you offend?” Zhou Jingya’s breath was incredibly foul, detectable even through the mask. “It’s all because of that bitch Nan Qiao, she must be sabotaging me! That bitch, I’m so mad!” Liu Yanfang and Zhou Hongqi stood beside, also wearing masks, and didn’t want to speak. Unable to contain her anger, Liu Yanfang came over and said to Zhou Jingya, “Xiao Ya, don’t worry, after the competition, Mom will find you the best doctor.” Zhou Jingya cried and nodded, “Mom, thank you.” Liu Yanfang: “It’s all that bitch Nan Qiao, she’s infuriating! I should have gotten rid of her back then, not just driven her out!” “Stop talking,” Liu Qing was tempted to throw Zhou Jingya out. Zhou Jingya’s bad breath had completely quieted the atmosphere. ... Soon, the competition officially began. The host was a beautiful and experienced lady who held the microphone and spoke some formal words. When her eyes glanced at Nan Qiao, it seemed like there were stars twinkling in them. Nan Qiao, crossing her arms, gave her a slight nod, and the host got a bit excited. Quickly calming down, “The competition officially starts now. First, let’s enjoy the fashion show. Each model is wearing the designer’s creation, and this round will eliminate ten designers.” The lights dimmed, and the models wearing the designed clothes walked onto the runway, starting the first round of eliminations. The waiting time was long, and Zhou Jingya stood with Liu Qing, who wore a mask, making her unrecognizable to others. Zhou Jingya stretched her neck, her attitude brimming with confidence as if she was already the winner. Confidence is good, but never be arrogant. After the fashion walk, ten contestants were eliminated. Zhou Jingya frowned when she saw Nan Qiao and her group still at the venue. “That little bitch Nan Qiao, why hasn’t she been eliminated yet!” Zhou Jingya hissed venomously. Liu Qing tapped Liu Yanfang’s arm. “Mind your manners.” Reminded by Liu Qing’s words, she quickly looked at Liu Yanfang, who dared not speak recklessly anymore. Zhou Jingya had to shut her mouth and with a malicious glare, glanced in Nan Qiao’s direction. Nan Qiao, feeling the venomous gaze from Zhou Jingya’s side, returned a smug smile. Nan Qiao’s smile had a tint of provocation, causing Liu Yanfang to be filled with rage and helplessness, unable to do anything but fret. ... The second competition involved designers explaining their design concepts with their creations. Nan Qiao glanced at Rong Yan, who nodded at her. Without another word, Rong Yan took the stage alone. Standing beside, He Li smiled and said, “Mr. Qiao, don’t worry. With you directing behind the scenes, Rong Yan will certainly have no problems.” Nan Qiao spoke seriously. “I’m not directing from behind; I am just leading the team in the competition. The one who has put in the most effort is Rong Yan.” Nan Qiao didn’t want He Li’s comment to undermine all of Rong Yan’s hard work. He Li’s attempt to provoke failed, leaving her somewhat displeased. Nan Qiao speak harshly. With her head lowered, He Li stopped talking. ... When Rong Yan’s design was presented, all the designers in the room were stunned. Rong Yan had designed a dress with an off-the-shoulder top where it reached just the bust, with a V at the chest, sexy yet proper. The color at the chest shimmered with a faint gold light, reminiscent of the tail of a mermaid, glistening. From the chest downward, a very short gradient appeared, using light blue fabric with a subtle transition that didn’t feel abrupt. As the models walked a circle on the stage, the dress radiated light as if the person was also glowing. Like a mermaid frolicking carelessly in the sea. Whatever Rong Yan said, no one quite caught; all eyes were on the dress. The uniquely crafted design, well-tailored and distinctive, was very eye-catching. After Rong Yan finished his explanation, the host led the applause. There was no help for it; the haute couture was truly beautiful. Next, it was Zhou Jingya’s turn to explain her design. Liu Qing had written the content, which Zhou Jingya had memorized. After Zhou Jingya finished her explanation, a smug look crossed her face. After Zhou Jingya stepped down, she saw Liu Qing’s brow furrowed. “Sister Qing, why that expression? Didn’t I speak well? The design is splendid, we’re sure to win.” Liu Qing, fixing her gaze on Rong Yan across, said icily, “What do you know? What does winning the second competition matter? The ultimate first prize is what we aim for! Cheng Yaojin has appeared midway; didn’t you see how even the designers admired Rong Yan’s design?” Zhou Jingya sat down, very calm, “Sister Qing, even if his design is excellent, so what? It doesn’t mean we’ll necessarily lose in the next competition.” Liu Qing couldn’t be bothered with Zhou Jingya, this idiot! “What do you know! Haven’t you seen? Their designs are always excellent!” Liu Qing clenched her fists; she could not lose! Liu Qing’s attitude made Zhou Jingya realize that she might indeed not win the first place. This couldn’t be! “Sister Qing, don’t worry, I have a way to make Nan Qiao lose to us!”
