Jian Xingfeng searched for a long time but was unable to find Jane Xin. He was extremely dissatisfied when he found out that she had arrived at the front.
"Father, I —"
"She'll know when she's strong." He gave a ruthless sneer, then softly comforted her, "Darling, don't cry anymore. Your eyes are already red, how are you going to show your face on stage?"
"Daddy only knows how to tease me. No matter how ugly I am, I'm still your precious daughter right?"
"Yeah, you're my precious daughter."
Being teased by her, Jian Xingfeng laughed heartily.
Jian Ning watched the two of them interact through a crack, her eyes filled with hatred.
"Jian Xingfeng, I was really too merciful to you in the past."
She coldly turned around and left the venue, going out to welcome an important guest.
Last time at Shang Yue's new product presentation, many people had seen Jian Ning and recognized her.
"Teacher Jane, I'm so happy to be able to see your design again so quickly."
"So this is the designer from Shang Yue. I've seen her design clothes before. It's really not bad."
"..."
Anyone who passed by Jian Ning would enthusiastically greet her, and try to get close with her.
Jian Ning did not care about how these people looked at her, and continued to smile at the guests.
Until Zhuang Ye appeared, her smile was forced.
When everyone saw Zhuang Ye coming, they did not dare to stay any longer and turned to leave as well.
When Zhuang Ye arrived in front of Jian Ning, his eyes quickly flashed with astonishment.
"What, that cripple didn't come with you today?"
He walked in front of Jian Ning, blocking her line of sight, and asked arrogantly.
Jian Ning lowered her gaze, her thick eyelashes blocking her view.
"Please come in Mr. Zhuang. I hope you like the arrangements for tonight."
Ye Zichen reached out his hand to signal him to go in first, but didn't want to talk much with him.
"Hmph, following a cripple. Let's see what benefits you will get."
With a cold snort, he placed his hands behind his back and walked in arrogantly.
Jian Ning retracted her gaze in disgust, and continued to wait for the person she wanted.
Very quickly, Selina, wearing the red dress that Jian Ning had designed for her, walked towards her elegantly.
She leaned over and hugged Jian Ning, then whispered into her ear: "Child, I believe in you, don't let me down tonight."
"Teacher, don't worry. I will definitely finish this off perfectly."
Jian Ning smiled and pushed her away, personally bringing her in.
Previously, Jian Ning had told Selina that someone would sue her for plagiarism tonight and specifically made Selina come as a witness.
After Selina heard this, she agreed without a second word.
After escorting her inside, she turned around and went backstage to check on the model.
"Jian Ning, be careful. Someone said just now that they were checking his clothes and did not look like a good person."
Lu Lu, who had cooperated with Jian Ning before, walked over to stop Jian Ning, pulled her into a corner, and warned her in a low voice.
This reminder warmed Jian Ning's heart as tears welled up in her eyes.
"Thank you for your reminder. I will take note."
She hugged Lulu and said with sincere gratitude.
Lulu had seen all kinds of darkness backstage. With just a glance, she could tell if there would be a problem or not.
If not for the fact that she had always taken care of him and Jian Ning, she would definitely not have reminded him.
Jian Ning obediently went to check all of her clothes. After confirming that there were no problems, she left the backstage.
Gradually, the music outside began to sound, signifying that the press conference was about to begin.
Jian Ning looked outside at Jian Xingfeng through the door, and self-deprecatingly smiled.
Jian Xingfeng, let's wait and see tonight.
"Weng weng …"
Her phone suddenly rang. In the busy backstage lounge, this sound could easily make people nervous.
Looking at the name on the phone, Jian Ning took a deep breath and pressed answer.
"I'm outside. Come out."
Shang Jin's cold voice sounded from the phone, there was no fluctuation in it.
Helplessly sighing, Jian Ning saw that there was basically nothing else that needed her, so she took her phone and went out.
At the door, even though Shang Jin was sitting there, he gave off an imposing aura that others couldn't ignore.
Both of Song Ge's hands hung at his sides, quietly standing behind him.
"Go and see if Zhao Hui is here, don't let that woman run away."
He waved to Song Ge who was behind him, and gave the order.
Song Ge hesitated for a moment. Only after seeing Jian Ning's figure, did he feel at ease.
"Mr. Shang."
As he respectfully walked in front of Shang Jin, Jian Ning unwillingly called out to him before consciously following behind her. He pushed the wheelchair into the arena.
"Look, Jian Xingfeng specially invited this many media personnel this time, in order to embarrass you, shouldn't you feel honored?"
Jian Ning sized up the crowd without batting an eyelid, and looked dejected.
Maybe after today, there will be even more people who will know the name Jian Ning.
"What a heartless woman you are."
Shang Jin closed his eyes that was filled with laughter.
Jian Ning didn't want to waste words with him, so she brought him to her own seat, got up, and went backstage.
She hid in a secluded room. She leaned against the door and panted heavily, cold sweat beading on her forehead.
"Weng weng …"
Ren Dehua's phone suddenly rang, pulling Jian Ning back to reality.
"Jian Ning, what are you trying to do? Do you know how dangerous it is today? Why didn't you inform me?"
Just as she picked up the call, Ren Dehua started to shout uncontrollably, feeling anxious.
"Uncle Ren, I'm not a child anymore. Believe me, I can do it well."
After she finished speaking plainly, she hung up.
Ren Dehua angrily threw the phone on the ground, he then looked at Zheng Kai who was at the side, and his anger grew even stronger.
"Why didn't you stop her and let her mess around?"
Zheng Kai shrugged helplessly, and looked at him with grief: "How can you blame me? She hadn't even told me before, and I only found out today."
This morning, Zheng Kai had gone to find his former colleagues as usual. When he was passing by the venue, he heard that someone was saying that Jian Ning would be in trouble tonight.
He immediately went to investigate, and after he was done, he anxiously ran over to look for Ren Dehua.
Ren Dehua facepalmed, unable to endure the racket that Zheng Kai was making in his ear. He shouted in a low voice, "Stop being so noisy, let me think."
"What are you thinking about? The press conference is about to begin. We should hurry over to expose him."
Zheng Kai fearlessly rushed forward to pull Ren Dehua away, wanting to drag him outside.
