Chapter 130 Outperforming others
Yu Haisheng's eyes were sharp and sarcastic, and the corners of his lips curled up slightly, forming a cold arc.
He was already in a very irritated mood because of Jia Lulu, and at this moment, all his dissatisfaction and anger seemed to have found an outlet, and poured out on Qiao Qin.
The atmosphere at the scene froze instantly, as if frozen by frost in the cold winter, and the air was filled with awkwardness and tension.
However, Qiao Qin was as firm as a rock, and her expression did not waver at all. She did not even raise her head to look at Yu Haisheng, but turned to Ellison calmly, with an unquestionable firmness in her voice: "Have they all submitted their designs?"
Ellison shook his head slightly, trying to ease the tense atmosphere with a gentle tone: "Joe, don't worry too much. They really haven't been handed in yet, you were just slightly delayed by something, it's not too late to come now."
His words were full of understanding and comfort for Qiao Qin, trying to inject a touch of warmth into this tense atmosphere.
Then, Ellison's voice sounded again: "After a month of careful preparation, I believe that your talents have been fully utilized. I can't wait to see the crown you design for the Queen."
His words were full of expectation. His eyes moved among the crowd and finally fixed on the designer beside him. He nodded gently and said, "Then, you will start and show us your masterpiece."
As the designer's explanation began, the hands of time seemed to speed up.
As the last person to arrive, Qiao Qin naturally took the last place and became the last protagonist of the show.
However, as the works of each designer were unveiled, the smile on Ellison's face gradually disappeared, and his brows furrowed, as if he was looking for something.
Obviously, he hasn't seen the color that can brighten his eyes.
Yu Haisheng stood up slowly, his eyes sparkling with pride and expectation, as bright as stars. He took a deep breath and began to introduce himself slowly.
"This is a dazzling crown that I have painstakingly crafted for Her Majesty the Queen. It is inlaid with thousands of carefully selected diamonds, each of which shines like the brightest star in the night sky, symbolizing her supreme status and endless glory."
Ellison's originally furrowed brows gradually relaxed after hearing Yu Haisheng's description. He nodded slightly, with admiration in his eyes, as if he had been deeply attracted by the imperial crown that he had never seen before.
Seeing this, Yu Haisheng inadvertently glanced at Qiao Qin and Jia Lulu in the corner, and a smug smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
It seems that the glory belongs to him.
Followed by.
Qiao Qin stood up slowly. There was a faint dark bruise under her eyes, which was the mark left by the recent heavy workload. The moment she gently opened the design drawing, the whole world seemed to be lit up.
A dazzling crown appears on the paper, with a ruby as crystal clear as morning dew in the center. Its beauty seems to be able to capture people's hearts and make people unable to look away.
Ellison was also shocked by this sudden surprise. He couldn't help but stand up as well, his eyes sparkling with admiration. He clapped his hands repeatedly, his voice full of excitement: "Joe, I was right about you. The moment I saw this design, I knew that this was what the Queen's crown should look like."
The corners of Qiao Qin's lips curled up slightly, a smile full of confidence and satisfaction. She knew that her hard work and dedication had received the best reward at this moment.
however.
Human joys and sorrows are not the same.
Yu Haisheng originally thought that the dawn of victory had already fallen on him, and just when he was about to win this honor, Qiao Qin appeared.
When his eyes fell on Qiao Qin's work, his heart felt as if it was hit by a huge rock and was instantly suspended in mid-air. His hands were clenched tightly together, and the blue veins on his forehead seemed to bulge due to excessive force.
At this moment——
Ellison's steady and powerful voice echoed in the box again.
"I have thought it through and decided to present Qiao Qin's design to Her Majesty the Queen."
This sentence hit Yu Haisheng's heart like a hammer, and also announced the final result of this month-long competition.
All his efforts and expectations seemed to have vanished in an instant.
Yu Haisheng took a deep breath, trying to calm his inner waves, but the feeling of loss and unwillingness came like a tide, difficult to resist.
The applause surged like a tide, drowning the entire venue. All eyes were focused on Qiao Qin, offering the warmest congratulations for her brilliant achievement today.
“It’s true that the new generation is better than the old. I’m afraid that we old guys will be washed onto the beach by the tide of the times.” A senior designer joked with a smile, but his eyes were full of admiration.
"Qiao Qin's design is so ingenious and clever. Why didn't I think of such a creative idea at the beginning?" Another designer shook his head and sighed, his eyes full of regret and admiration.
"Qiao Qin has shown such amazing talent and strength at such a young age. Her future must be bright and limitless!" Someone in the crowd exclaimed loudly, his voice full of expectations and blessings for Qiao Qin.
However, in this warm atmosphere, Yu Haisheng's smile seemed a little stiff. On the surface, he was congratulating Qiao Qin for her success, but his heart was filled with mixed feelings that were hard to describe.
His gaze shot towards Jia Lulu not far away like a sharp sword, and a hint of coldness flashed across his brows.
If she hadn't refused to steal Qiao Qin's exquisite design for her, how could he have lost the game?
The hatred in Yu Haisheng's eyes was as deep as the abyss. A sneer appeared on his lips, as if he was mocking Jia Lulu's self-righteous naivety.
Did she think she could easily get out of this storm?
What a big joke!
She hadn't even graduated from the academy yet, and she was still carrying the stigma of plagiarism. Yu Haisheng only needed to flick his finger to ruin her reputation and plunge her into an abyss of no return.
His thoughts raced as he began to imagine how to bring Jia Lulu to ruin. If Jia Lulu's reputation was completely ruined, would Qiao Qin, whom she had always protected, still be willing to let her stay in the studio?
"Ah-"
Jia Lulu's face was filled with a smile as bright as the warm spring sun, and she was sincerely happy for Qiao Qin's victory. She had seen and remembered Qiao Qin's hard work over the past month, and now that her efforts had finally paid off, Jia Lulu was filled with joy.
However, at this moment.
Jia Lulu suddenly felt a biting chill coming from behind, like a cold wind blowing across the lake, taking away all the warmth.
She subconsciously turned her head and saw Yu Haisheng's eyes staring at her coldly. The cold light flashing in his eyes was like a poisonous snake lurking in the darkness, which made people shudder.
There was an indescribable malice in Yu Haisheng's eyes.
He opened his mouth slightly. Although no sound came out, Jia Lulu could clearly read his silent words - "You. Wait.."
