Under the scathing accusations of Li Ying, Gu Ming’s face turned ashen, his tone brimming with displeasure. “I warned you earlier that she’s not easy to deal with. Although I arranged for someone, the method was your idea. You didn’t plan it well, and now you’re blaming me? What’s the use?”
Li Ying took several deep breaths, suppressing the anger in her heart. “It’s all because of that woman. Even my competition qualification has been revoked. What should I do now?”
Gu Ming replied, “I have a way for you to get your revenge, but it’s up to you whether you’re willing to do it.”
Without a second thought, Li Ying eagerly agreed, “I’m willing!”
After hearing Gu Ming’s plan, a smile curled up on Li Ying’s lips. She spoke in a cold, shrill voice, “I didn’t want to do this either. Blame yourself for provoking me!”
After Li Ying’s departure, the competition venue once again buzzed with laughter and cheers, especially among those who hadn’t won any prizes. They were thrilled upon learning about a consolation prize of 100,000.
“Thank you, beautiful sister.”
“Beautiful sister is like a goddess of wealth! I’ve decided, from now on, the first thing I’ll do every morning is to light three sticks of incense for the beautiful sister!”
“You’re exaggerating. For me, it’s different. I’ll keep the beautiful sister in my heart for a lifetime. Even if I forget the whole world, I’ll never forget her!”
Gu Dai, feeling helpless, shook her head and announced, “Everyone has worked hard in the competition these past few days. Tonight, I’ve specially organized a banquet for everyone to relax and enjoy.”
The crowd was stunned, then burst into excited cheers, chattering about what they would wear to the event.
The banquet was held in the most luxurious hotel in the Capital City.
Not only the contestants attended, but the judges were there too.
“My gosh, this is so luxurious.”
“If it weren’t for the beautiful sister, I don’t think I’d ever have the chance to come to such a grand place in my life.”
“I need to take lots of photos to commemorate this once-in-a-lifetime experience.”
“Hey, who is that handsome man who just came in?”
“I saw him standing with the beautiful sister a few days ago. I guess he might be one of her admirers.”
These children, usually engrossed in studying Suzhou embroidery, were unfamiliar with the financial world and thus did not recognize Song Ling’s identity.
Upon seeing Song Ling, Gu Dai’s brow furrowed slightly, but she quickly averted her gaze.
She didn’t want to create any conflict with him in such a setting. Ignoring his presence, she stood up with a smile and said, “The dishes here are quite good. Everyone, please eat more. If it’s not enough, feel free to ask the waiters for more.”
“Awesome!”
Wei Jia stood up, her lips curving into a light smile. She whispered, “Beautiful sister, thank you. I know if it weren’t for your help, the work that was destroyed today would have been mine, and I wouldn’t have achieved this ranking.”
After finishing her words, Wei Jia raised her glass and drank it in one gulp.
However, having never drunk alcohol before, she coughed continuously, her face turning red.
Mao Ni quickly patted Wei Jia’s back.
Gu Dai also finished her drink and said softly once Wei Jia had recovered, “It’s okay. Maintaining fairness in the competition is something I should do.”
Wei Jia nodded obediently and promised, “I’ll definitely study Suzhou embroidery even harder and pass on this technique!”
Gu Dai replied with a smile, “Good.”
Zhen Chan nodded in approval. “Keep it up, child. Your work is excellent, in terms of color, stitching, and creativity. As long as you stay humble and diligent, you’ll surely make great achievements.”
Wei Jia blushed with modesty but firmly said, “I’ll work hard!”
Song Ling, watching Gu Dai, who radiated charm and wore a smile, found himself smiling unconsciously.
Just then, the door was knocked upon.
Two handsome men entered, drawing everyone’s attention.
One had a cool and detached appearance, unapproachable, while the other exuded a bold charisma.
Upon seeing them, Gu Dai walked over with a smile and asked, “Su Ting, Third Brother, what brings you here?”
Meng Zhi leaned against the door, glancing at Su Ting and said helplessly, “He missed you and insisted on coming to find you.”
Meng Zhi, entrusted by Gu Dai to watch over Su Ting, had also come along. Seeing Song Ling in the private room, he felt relieved he had come.
Gu Dai looked at Su Ting, disapprovingly saying, “You’re still injured.. How could you run around like this?”
