  Tao Jing felt another huge blow to his ego. Why would she throw it away like that! Didn’t she know her own level of skill? Unsatisfactory designs to her were still desirable to others.

  Given how things looked, Zhou Xintang probably took Gu Mang’s and entered it in the designer competition! What were the registration reviewers doing!

  The corner of Qin Fang and the others’ mouths twitched. The design draft that she tossed aside was being praised so highly?

  “What are you going to do?” Tao Jing glanced over at the stage.

  Just then, the emcee, Ming Na, came onto the stage. “I always thought that Xintang was very talented in design. I haven’t seen any new work from her in the past six months so I thought she would definitely give us all a surprise. This dress is so beautiful! Now let’s invite Xintang to introduce her design to everyone.”


  She handed the microphone to Zhou Xintang.

  Holding the microphone, Zhou Xintang faced the audience and smiled a little. “This new design really took a lot of effort. I always thought the Chinese-styled costumes were beautiful but everyone seemed to fancy foreign styles. So I thought I would be able to combine the classic and modern styles to come up with a new style.”


  Gu Mang cocked her head to the side casually, watching Zhou Xintang on the stage, and she smirked. She exuded a sinister aura from deep within her.

  She got up, her legs long and straight, her hands in her pockets. She glanced at Tao Jing and walked towards the stage. “What am I gonna do? I’m gonna crash the stage, of course.”


  Her voice was low, cold, and ruthless. Proud and uninhibited, she walked without a care.

  Lu Chengzhou also stood up. He slid his hands in his pockets, his face expressionless as he said to He Yidu, “Go and take care of the media.”


  With that said, he followed after Gu Mang. He Yidu and Qin Fang looked at each other, the corner of their mouths twitching.

  What was Brother Cheng trying to do, help Gu Mang crash the scene?

  Meng Jinyang looked at Jiang Shenyuan. “Let’s go and see as well. Zhou Xintang stole Gu Mang’s design.”


  When she talked, she was still a little shocked, as though she hadn’t expected that Gu Mang would not only know how to design clothes, but be so damned good at it.

  Jiang Shenyuan nodded. “Okay, let’s go take a look.”


  Gu Mang walked to the front of the stage. She stood languidly in front of the first row of seats. Her black, bright eyes widened, her eyes filled with cold.

  Lu Shangjin was stunned when he saw Gu Mang and others sitting in the corner suddenly coming over.

  On the stage, Zhou Xintang, who was holding the microphone, saw Gu Mang and her gaze froze a moment.

  Thinking that Gu Mang was also coming to see her new work, there was a trace of contempt in her eyes.

  “This costume’s style is really unique. Xintang is an excellent designer.” Ming Na smiled and said, “Just now, the judges gave me their results. This New Year’s Day art gala, the award for the best item goes to……”


  Ming Na looked across the audiences and announced the winners emphatically, “The Experimental high school, Zhou Xintang’s team!”


  The audience from the Experimental High School stood up and cheered with thunderous applause.

  Ming City High School’s side was quiet and downcast. They all looked so disappointed.

  Qin Yaozhi didn’t expect they would lose in the end, she pursed her lips and clenched her fists.

  Zhou Xintang kept a humble demeanor, giving a mild smile, she bowed to everyone, “Thank you. It is thanks to everyone’s appreciation that the design became a good design. Thank you everyone for your support of my new work.”


  The media reporters frantically taking lots of photos, immediately editing articles to post online to compete in bringing the latest hype.

  Seeing that, Qin Fang raised an eyebrow. “Old He, how about we play something big?”


  He Yidu didn’t mind. “Okay, make it nice. Brother Cheng might even praise you for it.”


  Qin Fang smiled like a rascal.
