Chapter 788 - Have Confidence in Yourself (2)
Once the top ten entries were presented, the applause coming from the crowd was loud. The place was suddenly filled with praise not only for Liu Ruoyan\'s work, but also the Black Nightingale.
Prominent figures in the industry as well as the honored guest were astonished by what they\'d seen tonight. They were truly curious about the Black Nightingale, wondering if she indeed would make an appearance tonight and steal Liu Ruoyan\'s crown.
"Luo Qingqing and Xing Yiyue on the same stage, I can\'t believe this," one of the guests commented as the ten models came out from the backstage, presenting the entries which managed to enter the top 10 finalists of the competition.
Another guest sighed as he looked at the two beautiful women on the stage. Xing Yiyue looked like a white queen with the dress she was wearing and whatever people said or thought about her, none of them could deny that this woman still had a charming face that everyone couldn\'t ignore.
Meanwhile, Luo Qingqing stood at the other side of the stage with the other models, looking like a temptress. She wore a black lace dress that was as dark as the night with glittering red ruby earrings on her ears that gave her a more seductive look.
"It\'s hard to tell who\'s going to win this year. I have to admit that Black Nightingale\'s entry is way better than I expected."? A fan who\'d been following the competition for years, couldn\'t help but sigh as she looked at the black dress Luo Qingqing was wearing. The dress was oozing with magic on stage and everyone had to agree that it was the best entry they\'d seen tonight.
"I\'m feeling a little excited. Am I the only one who wants to meet this Black Nightingale in person?"
"She could be here, watching all of these. Since she\'d chosen to join this competition, her identity is bound to be known by the public."
As for the two most popular ladies who modeled tonight, one was trying to gain a chance to come back, while the other was cementing her fame to everyone with her stunning performance on the runway. Whether people would give Xing Yiyue a chance or not wasn\'t certain. As for Luo Qingqing, it was clear that she had truly become a queen of the entertainment industry the way she carried herself.
This awarding ceremony, in reality, wasn\'t only to acknowledge fashion designers, but also a good platform for any actors and models to pave their way into stardom. So, it wasn\'t really surprising for some people to see Xing Yiyue and Luo Qingqing on the same stage. Considering that it was one of the highlights of the fashion week, many were looking forward to seeing who would come victorious tonight. Would the Black Nightingale finally put an end to Liu Ruoyan\'s reign, or the latter would still be able to bag the prize?
The fashion week was the most anticipated time of the year for many designers and fashion enthusiasts. This was also the main battlefield where people wanted to prove their abilities when it came to showcasing their creativity, so, it\'s not surprising that the Black Nightingale chose this time to reveal her identity and prove that Liu Ruoyan didn\'t deserve her title.
The Black Nightingale might be popular, but the fact that she never mingled with the crowd and got along with her fellow designers made people think that she was looking down on them.
At that moment, Li Meili looked quite nervous as she waited for the host to call out the designers that had participated in this competition. She had worked very hard to finish this dress and it wasn\'t easy for her to swallow her pride and ask Tang Moyu to poach Luo Qingqing as her model.
If her work didn\'t suit Luo Qingqing\'s temperament and figure, not only would she lose to Liu Ruoyan, but even Luo Qingqing\'s reputation would be affected too. Li Meili knew that she wasn\'t the only one who worked hard to achieve wherever she was right now, and she didn\'t want those people\'s efforts to go to waste because of her.
"Calm down, darling. I can sense your nervousness. Have confidence in your own work. Everyone would agree with me when I say it\'s a magnificent piece of art." Zhang Jiren patted her hand. "Miss Luo and the dress perfectly suited each other well."
"I-I hope you are right," Li Meili sighed. Although she\'d said that she had no regrets, it didn\'t mean she didn\'t want to win at all.
"I\'m right." Zhang Jiren gave her a reassuring smile. "If you are worried about Liu Ruoyan, then don\'t. I won\'t allow her to obstruct your way."
"You didn\'t do anything illegal, right?" She laughed awkwardly. Although she knew that as a CEO of a huge company, it would be normal for someone like Zhang Jiren to get some connections to do his dirty works, Li Meili didn\'t want him to be implicated because of her.
The evidence Zhi Ruo managed to secure against Liu Ruoyan was already in Zhang Jiren\'s hands a week before they came here. Li Meili wasn\'t sure what he was planning to do with it as he wouldn\'t tell her anything no matter how much she asked him.
"Meili, you should rely more on me. I\'m your husband, right? It\'s only natural that I help you with your problems."
Hearing him say those words had somewhat calmed Li Meili\'s nerves. Aside from Tang Moyu, she had never dared to rely on anyone else until she married Zhang Jiren.
"I\'m so lucky to have a husband like you. I can\'t really ask for more."
"Ah, it\'s too bad that this perfect husband of yours is time-limited," Zhang Jiren commented, tuning out the noise coming around them. "So you better use this chance to use me before you run out of time."
Li Meili immediately fell silent after that. She didn\'t know why but she felt more upset and bothered thinking about their impending divorce. She took a side glance at her husband, and wondered if Zhang Jiren was already getting tired of this farce between them.
