Chapter 197: Chapter 197 won the competition
However, her reason told her that it was useless to be angry.
The angrier she was, the worse Zhou Lin would become.
“I’m sorry to disappoint you,”Xu Wan smiled faintly and said in a neither servile nor overbearing manner, “No matter what, I had Li Jingran before. Now that fate has arrived, I won’t force it.”
“You have the intention to mock me. Why Don’t you think about how to please him and make him accept your child?”
Zhou Lin’s expression instantly turned ugly. “You!”
“What do you mean? Are you mocking me?”
The fact that she had a child abroad had been made public, so Li Jingran would definitely mind.
Therefore, during this period of time, she had always been extremely humble in front of men, afraid that she would make them angry if she did not do well.
But how could an outsider discuss this! !
Xu Wan’s smile did not reach her eyes. “I don’t mean anything. I just hope that you won’t disturb me. I wish you both happiness.”
It was not a big deal. It was just the loss of a man.
There were 3.5 billion men in this world.
Since Li Jingran had given up on her first, and he had already pursued a new lover, why should she indulge in the past and mourn for this relationship.
Zhou Lin was furious and wanted to argue with him, but Xu Wanwan left directly. She left in a free and easy manner.
HMPH, stop pretending.
She didn’t believe that country bumpkin could have such a good psychological endurance. He could still pretend not to care about losing Li Jingran as his backer.
When she married Li Jingran, there would be plenty of crying country bumpkins in the future.
Xu Wanwan had spoken in a carefree manner just now. She had acted as if she really did not care. However, the moment she turned around, it was as if thousands of needles had pierced into her heart.
She had thought that Li Jingran would be the one who gave her warmth and hope.
All of this was just what she thought.
The sudden feeling of falling behind was hard to accept.
Initially, she had managed to escape from the Xu family with great difficulty. During those dark days, it was Li Jingran who had given her the light.
But now..
The more Xu Wan thought about it, the more confused she became. She simply emptied her mind and stopped thinking about it.
It was just time for dinner. She had just walked out of the competition venue when she bumped into Li Xuyi.
He held a bouquet of flowers in his hand and walked over casually. “This is for you.”
It was a bouquet of white tulips. The bouquet was not very big, but it looked even more exquisite.
Xu Wan Wan was stunned. “For me?”
“Didn’t you participate in that competition? This is to celebrate your victory.”
“The competition is just complete, okay?”Xu Wan was amused by him and laughed out loud. “How could the result be so fast?”
“So What? The champion will definitely be yours. We’re just celebrating in advance.”
“The odds aren’t even in our favor yet. How can he be so sure that she will definitely win the competition?”
“Then what’s there to be sure about? If you’re not selected as the champion, it means that those judges have no taste.”
Xu Wan:”...”
After having lunch with Li Xuyi, she went back to the school dormitory to rest for a while. She did not set off to the competition venue until three in the afternoon.
At this time, the judges had not arrived yet. The audience was already filled with people, waiting for the results.
“Hey, who do you think will win the best work this time?”
“Last time, Zhou Lin from the Nanshan sect won. This time, it’s very likely to be her.”
“That’s not necessarily true. The question this time is obviously much more difficult. Zhou Lin’s design style has always been gorgeous and layered. She definitely won’t have the advantage this time.”
“Forget it, let’s not guess anymore. Let’s wait for the result.”
Xu Wan sat down in a corner and waited quietly for the result.
“I really didn’t expect you to have such perseverance. You know that it’s impossible, yet you still want to see the result.”
Just as she sat down, a mocking voice came from beside her.
Xu Wan frowned and looked to the side.
Zhou Lin happened to meet her gaze and raised her eyebrows arrogantly. “What are you looking at? Are you not convinced?”
Xu Wan looked at her for a few seconds before she retracted her gaze and laughed lightly.
Zhou Lin was displeased. “What are you pretending for? Do you think that just because master is biased towards you, he can do whatever he wants?”
“If I Were you, I would be too embarrassed to come here this afternoon. Don’t tell me you think that you will win an award again?”
What a joke. A country bumpkin from the countryside was qualified to dabble in art.
Seeing that she was being so rude, Xu Wan’s voice turned cold. “I didn’t provoke you, did I?”
“The results of the competition haven’t been announced yet. The universe hasn’t been decided yet. How do you know that I Won’t win an award?”
Zhou Lin seemed to have heard the biggest joke in the world. “Heh, you’re so confident.”
“Just don’t be blindly confident. Don’t lose all your face.”
Xu Wan raised her eyebrows and asked, “What if I win the competition?”
“Humph, if you win the competition, I’ll climb out from here.”
“Well, if I win, you’ll climb out from here.”Xu Wan Wan smiled confidently and then quietly pulled away. She didn’t want to talk too much nonsense with this woman.
After a while, the host took the name list and went on stage.
The judges and teachers also entered the venue one after another.
The entire hall instantly fell silent. Everyone held their breath and listened attentively to the results.
The host held the microphone in his hand and looked around the audience. “I announce that the winner of the first prize of the design competition this time is –”
Everyone’s appetite was piqued.
Xu Wan Wan’s palms were also sweating as she looked nervously at the stage.
“Congratulations, student Xu Wan Wan, for winning the first prize of our design competition!”
The entire hall echoed with the host’s voice.
Xu Wan Wan’s eyes flickered, and her tightly clenched hands gradually loosened.
Her heart relaxed, but she did not feel excited.
For this design competition, she had worked hard for more than a month, looking at the design drawings and designing works all day long, all in order to win the competition and help the Li Corporation get Master Nanshan’s design drawings.
Now, she had done it.
But would she still have a chance to go to the Li Corporation?
At the thought of this, Xu Wanwan’s eyes instantly dimmed.
Li Jingran probably didn’t want to see her now either.
After the host announced the results, the people below the stage reacted and immediately burst into an uproar.
“Who is this Xu Wanwan? There are only a few capable people in our design industry. Every year, those few people take turns to win the awards. Why Is there a newcomer this year?”
“Yeah, did the judges make a mistake? Most people in our industry know her. I’ve never heard of her before.”
When Zhou Lin heard the news, she was also shocked.
Now that she heard their doubts, she took the lead and jeered, “Judge, Xu Wanwan is just a newcomer. Are you sure she really has the ability to win the first prize?”
How could a country bumpkin win the first prize?
He must have used some improper connections to win the first prize.
Xu Yue also echoed, “Yes, Judge. Our competition has always been fair and just. Why don’t we announce Xu Wan’s design and let everyone enjoy it?”
