Then, it was time for the evaluation segment. The judges commented on all the works one by one. As expected, the judges were full of praise for Xia Tong’s work. With Xia Tong’s current ability, even the judges present could not compare to her. What was even rarer was that she was not a professional designer. She had never studied design professionally and was usually very busy filming. She probably did not have time to learn. To be able to design such stunning works, she must be extremely talented.

At this moment, the judges had all expressed their opinions. The host could not help but look at Shen Yu. “Mr. Shen, whose work do you like?”

Everyone was very satisfied with Xia Tong’s work. Even amateurs could tell that she was much better than other designers. Hence, it was just a formality for the host to ask Shen Yu. After all, Shen Yu had a gentle temper. He thought that Shen Yu would definitely agree with the others.

Xia Tong looked at Shen Yu uneasily, expecting his praise. However, Shen Yu picked up the microphone unhurriedly and sneered.

Everyone looked at each other. Did Shen Yu like her work or not?

The judges at the side subconsciously looked at him, only to see that his eyes were filled with disdain. The host smiled awkwardly. “Teacher Shen, your way of expressing your feelings is very special. Well, let’s go to the next segment. The judges will give their scores.”

“No,” Shen Yu said coldly. Everyone was surprised. Shen Yu was famous for his good temper and had always been a gentleman. He had never been so rude, much less put on the airs of a celebrity just because of his identity. However, he was really acting too strangely today.

The host looked troubled. “Mr. Shen…”

“I haven’t expressed my opinion,” Shen Yu said bluntly. His cold gaze landed on Xia Tong. “Miss Xia’s work is indeed perfect.”

Xia Tong heaved a sigh of relief. Perhaps Shen Yu did not like this style, but he had to admit that her work was indeed perfect. There were a total of five contestants. Shen Yu had only praised her work, which was enough for her to stand out from everyone.

However, the next second…

Shen Yu’s eyes were sharp as he said sarcastically, “But did you design your work yourself, Miss Xia?”

Everyone was stunned. The host’s expression froze. He really did not expect Shen Yu to question Xia Tong in public. He was clearly saying that Xia Tong had plagiarized.

Xia Tong quickly retorted, “Yes! Of course!”

The judges looked at Shen Yu in surprise, then at Xia Tong in doubt. With Shen Yu’s current status, there was no need for him to malign Xia Tong. Since he said that, it meant that he knew the inside story.

Shen Yu snorted. “Is that so? Miss Xia, you’re very confident.”

The host laughed dryly. The judges at the side hurriedly stepped forward to mediate the situation. “Mr. Shen, you must be joking! After all, Xia Tong’s work is really too perfect. It doesn’t seem like something an amateur can do.”

Shen Yu ignored everyone and his voice became even colder. “Miss Xia, let me ask you again. Did you design this piece?”

The moment that was said, the judges could not help but suspect that since Xia Tong was just an amateur designer, how could she have designed such a stunning piece? Moreover, they knew Shen Yu’s character. He would not malign anyone.

Xia Tong lowered her head guiltily. Faced with everyone’s questioning gazes, cold sweat broke out on her forehead. She knew very well that if it was exposed that she didn’t design this, her career would be ruined. Hence, she could only brace herself and answer, “Mr. Shen, you must’ve misunderstood. This is my work. If you don’t believe me, I can show you the design!”

At this moment, a judge said unhappily, “Mr. Shen, what right do you have to say that this gown isn’t Xia Tong’s work? Do you have evidence? You have to know that rumors are scary. Your joke might ruin Xia Tong’s future.”

In order to stand out in the show, Xia Tong bribed two of the judges. They would naturally stand up for Xia Tong. Everyone knew this.

“Evidence?” Shen Yu raised an eyebrow and said with a smile, “I don’t have any evidence. Since you’re so sure that your work is yours, I’ll vote for you.”

Xia Tong finally heaved a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Shen Yu did not continue to make things difficult for her. Otherwise, she really would not know what to do.

Seeing this, the host immediately continued, “As Xia Tong’s work is too stunning, it has caused Mr. Shen to think that this work doesn’t belong to Xia Tong. Thank you for your straightforwardness, Mr. Shen. Our show needs to be realistic and transparent for the audience.”
