Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

As Li Ci was thinking about it, he suddenly received another message on his phone. [Im being followed by Zhao Cheng from the s.h.i.+ family and Zheng Tian from the Jiang family.]

After Li Ci put away his phone, he glanced at s.h.i.+ Xiao and Jiang Chen calmly. As expected, when Yuan Shu was involved, the two of them would interfere. However, he didnt know how stable the alliance over a woman would be.

At the same time, s.h.i.+ Xiao and Jiang Chen looked in Li Cis direction. They had both received the news. He has been caught by Li Cis subordinate.

Although he had expected this, s.h.i.+ Xiao was still a little surprised. How did Li Ci slowly develop his faction to become so powerful under their noses?

After planning for so long, Li Ci didnt intend to hide it anymore. He looked at the two of them provocatively, as if he was saying, Let me see how capable the two of you are.

At this moment, the banquet was almost over. Old Master Song said to everyone, Thank you all for coming to the Song familys banquet today. Theres still one last segment. I hope everyone can partic.i.p.ate.

Everyone asked cooperatively, What segment is it?

Everyone knows that the s.h.i.+ and Xu families have two designers, s.h.i.+ Yi and Xu Zhi. Two people are wearing these two designers designs today. Ive been asked to hold a compet.i.tion for them. I hope everyone can vote for your favorite designs fairly.

As Old Master Song spoke, a waiter walked into the hall with a tray filled with red roses.

Old Master Song continued, These two models are the wife of the s.h.i.+ familys eldest son, Yuan Shu, and my grandson-in-law, Jiang Chen. 1 hope everyone can observe their outfits carefully and vote. Every rose here represents one vote, and the person who wins the most roses will win. The person who commissioned me to organize the compet.i.tion has a ticket to next years international fas.h.i.+on design compet.i.tion. This ticket will be awarded to the winner.

Everyone here watched fas.h.i.+on design exhibitions often, so of course they knew the significance of the international fas.h.i.+on design compet.i.tion to a designer. It could be said to determine the development of a designers career. They immediately felt that the roses in their hands had become extremely important.

Old Master Song said, Lets invite the two models to the front now.

Yuan Shu didnt expect the old man to be so high profile. Yuan Shu didnt like to attract too much attention.

She sighed helplessly before walking forward silently under everyones gaze.

If Old Master Song hadnt just announced that Jiang Chen was his future grandson-in-law, people would have been gossiping about Jiang Chen and Yuan Shus matching outfits, and whether there was any deeper meaning behind it.

A publicity stunt had been Jiang Chens plan all along, but Old Master Songs unexpected action changed all of his plans.

There was a high platform at the front of the hall. When Jiang Chen walked to the front of the platform, he reached out his hand to help Yuan Shu up, but after Yuan Shu glanced at him, she dodged his hand. She lifted her skirt and walked up to the platform quietly. Jiang Chen withdrew his hand, but Song s.h.i.+ saw this scene and was so angry that she gritted her teeth.

The crowd started voting. After half an hour pa.s.sed, all the votes had been cast. The waiter walked forward and began to check the number of roses around Yuan Shu and Jiang Chen. Finally, he reported the results to Old Master Song.

Old Master Song looked at the crowd. Then, under everyones expectant gazes, he revealed an ambiguous smile and said, Unfortunately, theres no winner or loser in this compet.i.tion.

He deliberately paused to let everyone start whispering to each other in confusion. Then, he raised his hand to silence everyone. The result of todays compet.i.tion is a draw!

More discussion followed.

Someone objected, If its a draw, which of the two designers will partic.i.p.ate in the compet.i.tion?

The old man laughed heartily as he said, The two designers are both very outstanding, so of course, they have to partic.i.p.ate in the compet.i.tion together. Since theres only one ticket, the Song family is willing to provide another ticket so that the two outstanding designers can partic.i.p.ate in next years compet.i.tion.

As expected of the Song family. The admission ticket to a world-cla.s.s designers compet.i.tion wasnt something that could be obtained so easily. However, Old Master Song spoke very confidently, as if he could get it with a flick of his finger..
