Su Ningqing said in a regretful tone, "Obviously Sisi's works are the most outstanding, but I actually think that if she were to participate, she would definitely become the champion."
"Actually, I don't know why Song Sisi doesn't care. It's because she has a prejudice against the J Family." Qin Yuan continued to ravage Su Ningqing's face, "Song Sisi had a falling out with the original studio the day before she came here, because she had already bought a round trip ticket that she could not return, so she came here to play with tickets."
"What a pity."
"What's the pity?" Qin Yuan said as he used more strength to ravage Su Ningqing's face, "You can have Lin Xu pull Song Sisi into your group, and then submit Song Sisi's work to Mike."
Su Ningqing was in so much pain that she was even more annoyed, "Don't make my face hurt."
"Qingqing …" Qin Yuan shouted out Su Ningqing's name in a crafty manner, his handsome eyebrows raised, "Tonight, you can only say yes, you can't say no, you broke the rule."
"That doesn't count."
"No, no, so I'm going to start punishing you now." Qin Yuan once again transformed into a hungry wolf and pounced towards Su Ningqing, this sweet and delicious little white rabbit.
was a fish, Su Ningqing was a water. The water surrounded the fish and the fish fluttered in the water.
On this day, Su Ningqing passed Song Sisi's backup work to Mike, but Mike was very persistent on the matter of principles. Although it was not a personal matter with Song Sisi, since time had passed, she would definitely not accept any work.
Mike looked at Su Ningqing with a profound look, "Miss Su, do you know our CEO, Pierre De Vijelli?"
"I saw Mr. Pierre in an interview with the J family in ELLE. Is there anything I can help you with?"
Mike shook his head, he did not want to say it. This was a matter of the upper echelons of the J Family, how could they let others know about the internal conflicts of the J Family?
"Mr. Mike, Sisi's exhibition is really outstanding, I believe it meets the requirements of the J Family, please forgive my words that you do not know your place, I personally think it is the best out of all the participants."
"Miss Su, Miss Song's works are indeed excellent, but the time limit has been reached. And we don't want to accept someone who has a fundamental interest in the J family. " Mike said, "Miss Su, I still have work to do. Goodbye."
Su Ningqing sighed helplessly, she truly believed that Sisi's work was outstanding, if not she would not have pestered him like this.
What a pity …
Not long after, the J Family announced the final victor's name, and when Anna saw Su Ningqing's name, he was enraged.
Not only did Anna doubt it, even Su Ningqing was surprised when she saw it. She did not believe that her ability was good enough to defeat so many top designers.
Not long later, the rumor of Mike and the CEO quarreling with each other in the CEO's office because of the winner spread out, following that, Qin Yuan's identity was revealed, and even the relationship between and the J Family that was part of the Shengtian Financial Group was revealed online.
The majority of the designers present were all top talents of different countries, so they naturally looked down on an unknown girl like Su Ningqing. To think that Su Ningqing actually won, didn't that mean their reputation was a joke?
And so, everyone started to guess that Su Ningqing used her Qin Family's power to force the Js to choose her as the champion. Some of them even directly said that Su Ningqing had an affair with Pierre, the CEO of the Js, so Pierre firmly rejected the opinion of the most authoritative designer, Mike, and continued to push Su Ningqing to be the champion. Song Sisi even had a fight with these people, but it was all useless.
Qin Yuan was furious, he sent people to find the people who spread the rumors and taught them a lesson, but who knew that there were some people who did not care about the truth, and only cared about the advantages and disadvantages of the rumors, thus the matter became more and more chaotic.
Most of the designers had a certain position in the design circle. Once their words were spread out, Su Ningqing was practically dragged into the blacklist of the design circle, and it even spread to China, where even her partners in the studio called to ask him about it.
After Su Ningqing and the Water Immortal finished talking on the phone, he sat in front of her computer in a daze.
Qin Yuan knocked on her head, "What are you thinking about?"
"Actually, I have read Anna's works before. If I were Anna, I would not be convinced." Su Ningqing said in a serious tone, "Mike's evaluation is not wrong, whether it is in terms of controlling the striped elements, the trend, or wild breakthroughs, Anna is stronger than me."
"I'm still in the mood to speak up for others." Qin Yuan said with both helplessness and heartache, "Alright, there's still a way if we want to completely settle this."
Su Ningqing's eyes lit up, and she said indifferently, "I made an appointment with someone to have dinner with the J Family's CEO, Pierre De Vijelli. You will accompany me there and request for him to choose a new topic, evaluate the scene design, and confirm our victory."
"There's another advantage to doing this." Qin Yuan pinched Su Ningqing's face, "Even the Song Sisi that you've been worried about, a person like her, can participate in the tournament again."
Su Ningqing's almond eyes were almost filled with worship, she excitedly kissed Qin Yuan, "You're really too awesome."
Qin Yuan touched his face, and said unhappily, "If I knew this would happen, you would have kissed me on your own accord. I should have given you more ideas."
Su Ningqing glared at him lovingly before turning off the computer.
At around seven in the evening, Su Ningqing and Qin Yuan took a bus to a high-class Western restaurant on the Champs-Elysées to order first, waiting for the CEO of the J Family, Mr. Pierre De Wigger.
Su Ningqing had always been a fan of the J Family, and now that she had to meet the CEO of a top fashion brand company, she was very excited and nervous. When Qin Yuan saw how nervous and excited he was, tiny ripples formed on his forehead, "When I was with you, were you also this nervous when you wanted to meet me?"
Su Ningqing lowered her head, "Not really, I'm just a bit worried. After all, so much time has passed, and I just wanted to make a round of regret. "
Qin Yuan picked up the ice water from the table and gulped it down. Su Ningqing did not notice at all as she continued, "Adding on to that, later on, I thought that you were just an ordinary playboy and that you did not have any good feelings for me."
"Qingqing." Qin Yuan coldly interrupted Su Ningqing's words. He did not want to continue listening, and the more he listened, the more sorrowful he became.
"Later on, you were shameless, stubborn, and unreasonable …" Su Ningqing acknowledged, "What's wrong?"
Qin Yuan felt wronged and said, "Qing Qing, do I not have any good points?"
"Advantages?" Su Ningqing tried hard to think back, what were his advantages?
"Yes." Su Ningqing said in all seriousness, "You are very smart."
Qin Yuan unhappily grabbed Su Ningqing in his arms. How could being smart be considered the virtue of being a good boyfriend? Qingqing, I solemnly remind you that I have many advantages, such as gentleness. "
"You always force me?"
Qin Yuan clenched his teeth, "And considerate."
"Kindness doesn't force people."
"Then what about the tall, handsome, and rich guy?"
"I'm not someone who looks good. As long as I don't have a disgusting appearance, I'm okay with it."
"So other than being smart, I have no other advantages?" Qin Yuan asked, unconvinced.
Su Ningqing sat on his lap and laughed, "It doesn't matter if you have any good points. I like it even if you don't."
The unhappiness on Qin Yuan's face immediately turned into softness. This little thing, just a few words was enough to throw him into the mud and bring him to the world. Qin Yuan bit on Su Ningqing's collarbone angrily, "You torturous little thing."
Su Ningqing pouted at him and pinched his arm lightly. Probably because she was afraid of hurting her, Su Ningqing's pinching feeling was extremely light. Like a massage, Qin Yuan was especially enjoying the unique intimacy she had with him.
After a while, Pierre's CEO arrived. His golden hair was combed meticulously, his handsome face was full of seriousness, causing those who were near to him to automatically avoid him. Su Ningqing, who was currently far away from him, began to suspect that this was a person who was strict with his words and not smiling.
Pierre led the way and arrived at Qin Yuan's table. Qin Yuan then extended his hand out and said, "CEO Pierre, hello, I am Qin Yuan, the CEO of the Asian Shengtian Group Corporation."
But Pierre did not say anything, he only stared straight at Su Ningqing's direction, his face pale white, his lips trembling uncontrollably, "Elina?"
Su Ningqing opened her eyes wide and looked behind him. There was no one here, who was he calling?
Pierre excitedly grabbed onto Su Ningqing's sleeve, "Elina, aren't you dead? Didn't Jones go to China to bring your body back? Why did you suddenly appear here? "Oh, the Goddess must have appeared. She knew that Mother and I missed you so much that we sent you back to us."
"CEO Pierre." Qin Yuan frowned deeply as he pulled Pierre's hand away and pulled him into his embrace, then said coldly, "This is my girlfriend, Su Ningqing. She is from China, and not the Elina you are talking about."
"No, Elina, you are my Elina, I will not recognize you wrongly."
Su Ningqing slowly spoke out in French, "CEO Pierre, my name is Su Ningqing, I am A Yuan's girlfriend. This is my first time in Paris, I don't think we have met before."
"Isn't it?" Pierre said with a tremble, "How is that possible? You clearly look so similar to Elina, even your voice is the same. "
"CEO Pierre, Qing Qing is the winner of this competition. You should have her resume in your hands." Qin Yuan reminded her coldly once again.
Pierre shook his head in disbelief as he slowly sat down, staring intently at Su Ningqing, "You really aren't Elina?"
"This is my first time in France." Su Ningqing said in a serious tone, "However, I heard my mother say before that a twin sister of mine was sent to an orphanage due to some family reasons. After that, she was adopted by a French couple and brought to France."
"Oh, so that's how it is." Pierre sighed sadly, "I'm sorry, I was too agitated just now."
"Since the misunderstanding has been resolved, why don't we get down to business?" Qin Yuan held up the ice water on the table and took a sip. The corner of his eyes always rested on Pierre and he had a very strange feeling, this was the first time he had met this man, but he felt that this man was exceptionally dangerous.
Even if Pierre didn't believe that Su Ningqing was his sister Elina, he couldn't help but set his gaze on Su Ningqing and sigh emotionally, "They're really too similar, as expected of twins. They're actually so similar, if Mother saw them, she would definitely think that Elina had returned as well."
"Mr. Pierre, can I take a look at my sister's photo?" Su Ningqing suddenly made her request, "Because ever since I was six years old and separated from my sister, I have never seen her again."
"It's only natural." Su Ningqing took out her phone and took a look at the photo of him and Elina. The photo of her mother and Elina together, all of the family members were brought out. Su Ningqing's heart was beating even faster as she stared at the girl in the photo.
"Mr. Pierre, can I ask you to send me a few photos of my sister for me to bring back to my mother? My mother has always regretted handing her sister over to the orphanage. She has always blamed herself. "
"Of course." Pierre said, "Actually, Elina also misses you guys. The reason she went to China that time was because she heard of your news. Sadly, not long after she went to China, she lost her life in a serial car accident. "
"If you look at it again, she probably hasn't seen you." Pierre was extremely sad, "She is my only sister, I had a major illness previously, and was severely depressed. It was she who saved me, everyone loves her, and before she boarded the plane, we were still happy for her. We didn't expect her to leave so suddenly."
"We haven't even seen the last one." The more Pierre spoke, the more sorrowful he became, and in the end, he started to cry.
Su Ningqing's memories of that little sister still rested on that single piece of candy when he was six years old. At that time, they were very poor, and on the day that little sister entered the orphanage, the dean gave her a piece of candy.
That was the last time they saw each other. At that time, the little sister had left while crying. She and her mother had also left while crying.
If her mother knew that her little sister was well loved in France, she would feel less guilty, wouldn't she?
Su Ningqing had never seen a man cry before. Seeing that Pierre was so sad that he did not know how to comfort him, he could only take out a tissue and give it to Pierre. Qin Yuan once again gulped down a mouthful of ice water and said, "Mr. Pierre, Qing Qing, there is something I need your help with."
Pierre wiped away his tears, the sapphire eyes were filled with mist. He looked at Su Ningqing sincerely, "You are Elina's little sister, if there is anything I can help you with, I will definitely not refuse."
Su Ningqing glanced at Qin Yuan, and Qin Yuan nodded to her. Then, she said, "It's this Mr. Pierre, for some reason, many of the participants didn't approve of the final result of the competition last time. This has had a huge negative impact on my life and work."
"Don't worry, I will immediately clarify this for everyone."
"No, Mr. Pierre, the design is a place that emphasizes strength. Only strength can really stop a rumor, so after A Yuan and I discuss it, we hope that you can hold another competition, where all the participants will be participating. Afterwards, we can publicly rate it so that everyone can be convinced."
"However, the Js have already decided to use your design as a new product for next season's collaboration. If you start a new competition..."
Qin Yuan said indifferently, "Mr. Pierre does not need to worry, I have confidence in Qing Qing. If it was because I was worried about losing the competition, then wouldn't the rumors say that Qing Qing did not rely on my own strength to win?"
"Regarding this, I would also like to ask Mr. Pierre, you have rejected the suggestion of the chief designer Mike, what was the reason for choosing my work?"
"There are two reasons. The first one is that your work merged the characteristics between Anna and Jin, and found the balance between them. Of course, Jin Zaiyuan was disqualified later on due to other reasons, and the second was my personal feelings. "
Pierre said, "My sister, Elina, was once a J Family Designer and has always strived to create a new design that would turn the world around. But your style, truth be told, the Miss Su, is extremely similar to my sister's.
Su Ningqing was startled, she did not think of this reason, was her design style really that similar to Little Sis?
With a flash of inspiration, Su Ningqing immediately asked, "May I ask if Miss Elina not only designed the clothes, but also the shoes.
"Yes, ever since Elina passed away, I changed my Illusory Paradise Series into the Illusory Paradise Series."
Su Ningqing was startled, was it because of the power and ties of kinship? The shoes that she had always loved and crazily collected were actually designed by her little sister.
Was this the compensation of God for the many years of helplessness they had been separated from each other?
Su Ningqing was momentarily overwhelmed with emotions; she was stunned and moved for a long while but was unable to extricate herself. Qin Yuan reached out his hand, which had always been warm, and placed Su Ningqing's little hand in his palm, as if to say, I'm still accompanying you.
When they parted ways, Pierre handed over his business card to Su Ningqing with both hands, "Miss Su, my mother really dotes on Elina. If you have the time, I hope that you can come and meet my mother at my house. She will definitely be very happy to see you."
Su Ningqing smiled and said, "In fact, Mr. Pierre, if you didn't say it like that, I would have taken the initiative to ask for it. I beg you to give me more opportunities to learn about my sister and her life in France. "
Su Ningqing paused for a moment before continuing in French, "I also sincerely invite you to my home in China, my mother will definitely be especially happy to see you too."
Pierre happily agreed, and also made an appointment with Su Ningqing before driving away.
In the carriage, Su Ningqing kept her head down as she stared at the photo that Pierre had given her. The woman who looked exactly like her, her younger sister, Elina.
"If only little sister was still here …" After chatting so much with Pierre, she didn't feel like crying at all. Suddenly, she calmed down and looked at the cute girl in the photo. She remembered that she was on her way back to China to find her and her mother.
Qin Yuan worriedly gave the tissue case to her, "Qing Qing, even if she leaves, her soul will still be with you guys."
"Pierre said that it's a pity, that it's very sad, that we didn't see each other for the last time, but wasn't mother and I the same?" Su Ningqing wiped away her tears, "The candy that she left for me when I was young, actually, I never ate it and left it in my old home's wish box. In the past, little sister liked to stack stars very much, I didn't like it.
"Little sister said, a thousand stars can make a wish. I've already stacked several boxes of stars, but my wish still hasn't come true."
Qin Yuan stopped the car and reached out his hands to gently hug Su Ningqing, gently patting her shoulder. In this life, as long as you live, there is hope.
His family didn't have that much kinship, so it was more of a struggle for benefits.
Qin Family is a battlefield, so no one will show you any mercy because of a little bit of bloodline emotion.
In other words, besides being able to understand the sorrow in Qing Qing's eyes, he was also envious of her and her kind heart and kind heart. She and her little sister didn't resent fate for being so unfair; they always cared about each other.
After a while, Su Ningqing had become a lot better. Qin Yuan let go of her and continued to drive, Su Ningqing asked him for her opinion. "A Yuan, can you come with me to pay respects to my little sister? I want to tell her that I have you now and I'm living a good life. I want to introduce you to her and reassure her. "
"It would be my honor." Qin Yuan smiled, "What's more, I can get to know another great beauty."
The corner of Su Ningqing's mouth twitched as she also smiled. "I hope that little sister will be fine in the other world too."
Pierre was even faster, on the second day he called all the participants to inform them about the reopening of the design competition, and that it would be held in the form of an open competition.
Receiving the news, all the participants became extremely excited, at the same time they started to guess, could it be that it was because Su Ningqing was going through the backdoor, that the J Family could no longer withstand the pressure, and decided to suddenly reopen the competition.
However, when Mike reconvened, announced the rules, and told everyone that Su Ningqing was the one who initiated the rumors, the rumors stopped spreading and even the usually haughty Anna had a higher opinion of him.
In the conference room, after Mike left, he laid on the table and started complaining in English, "Why do we have to start over again?"
Anna raised her head, and said coldly: "You still aren't taking this opportunity to work hard, do you want others to see a joke?" She looked in the direction of Jin Zizan. "Some people have done shameless things. Didn't they lick their faces and come back to participate in the tournament?"
Su Ningqing also looked in the direction of Jin Zizan. Honestly speaking, no one would have thought that he would actually take the initiative to return during the second round, right?
Song Sisi sighed, then laughed and spoke in Chinese, "Sisi, are you not interested right now because of the matter regarding the studio?"
Song Sisi looked at Su Ningqing in shock, "How did you know?"
"A-Yuan accidentally found out about it when he helped you investigate." Su Ningqing laughed and said, "I've invited Ah Xu for afternoon tea, do you want to come along with me? Ah Xu said that he liked your design and wanted to invite you to join our studio. "
"Lin Xu's studio?" Song Sisi retreated, "That terrifying man's studio?"
"So it turns out that Ah Xu is in charge. However, after Ah Xu knows France, it is the Water Immortal that is in charge." Su Ningqing said seriously.
"Oh." Song Sisi heaved a sigh of relief, "Then I can still consider it."
Thus, under Su Ningqing's extremely sincere invitation, Song Sisi agreed to meet Lin Xu. As for joining the Workshop, she and Lin Xu would discuss it and settle it on her own.
Su Ningqing was a little helpless, as if she had been on alert and biased against Ah Xu ever since the incident with the board.
