hundred thousand. Are you deliberately falsifying the bill to scam us""Ma'am, our Supreme VIP room has a charge of 100,000 for the space, and you ordered all of our signature dishes tonight, which ar..."Let me give you a sneak peek, the top three contenders are Pei's Group's Diancui hairpin, Luo's Group's Qionghua jade pendant, and our VIC Jewelry's Jin Feng Cheng Xiang. Who will ultimately take the crown"
The host pretended to be mysterious.
All eyes were on
him!
"Now, I'm going to reveal the top three winners. The third-place winner is...is...is! VIC's Gold Phoenix Auspicious Ornament!"
The audience applauded, but before Luo Ningxi could say anything, Su Qiao was already beside her, indignant. “This design is really good, how is it only third place”
"Everyone's aesthetic preferences are different, and that's perfectly normal." Luo Ningxi said calmly.
"It's all because Shengshi Group's President Sheng has such strange aesthetics. Anyone with eyes can see that this is better than Mu Xiyin's pathetic broken jade!"
Nearby Su Qiao's agent had come up at some point, and in a hushed tone warned, "Little ancestor, watch your words! That Mu Xi Yin is the daughter-in-law handpicked by Old Master Li! Although she didn't explicitly say who designed the hairpin, many people at this event know it was her design, of course, they will vote for her!"
"Darn nepotism!"
Su Qiao cursed under her breath and turned back to comfort Luo Ningxi, "Ningxi, don't be sad. In my heart, you are ten thousand times better than Mu Xiyin!"
Luo Ningxi was calm and collected, not overly affected. The key point was the upcoming announcement of the rankings.
"Alright, now for the moment of truth! The top vote-getter in this competition is... will it be Pointing Jade Cloud Pin from the Pei Corporation or Orchid Flower Jade Pendant from the Luo Corporation"
The final contest between these two pieces had everyone on the edge of their seats!
One is rumored to be designed by Li Si Shao's fiancee, Mu Xi Yin, and the other is the most beloved jewelry piece of Old Master Li...
Both have a chance to win!
Mu Xiyin clenched her palms excitedly, staring intently at the stage so much that she didn't even notice the man beside her scrutinizing gaze!
"Next, I announce that the jewelry piece that won first place in our voting is—"
The host, drawing out the syllables, announced with passion amidst the cheers of the crowd!
"It is a jewelry piece from the Luo Family Group—the Jade Pendant of Blooming Orchids!"
"Good!!"
As soon as the words left her mouth, thunderous applause erupted from the audience!
It is said that this work was the most beloved of the old master of the Li family group. However, no one expected that when the old master heard the result, his face instantly turned cold. A hint of ferocity flashed in his aged and deep eyes!
Mu Xiyin actually lost again, still in front of so many people...
"Uncle Li, I'm to blame for my poor skills. I couldn't compare to the jewelry from Luo Group, causing you all embarrassment…"
Mu Xi's warm eyes glistened with mist, her voice humble. "They must have hired a very famous original design artist."
She enunciated the word "original" very carefully, as if she were deliberately saying it for the old man to hear.
Mr. Li's gaze couldn't help but fall on Li Botong, "Li Botong and Nan Hanchuan love to hang out in these circles the most," he said hurriedly, "Yin Yin, this isn't your fault. Who knows if Luo Ningxi used other means to get votes"
……
After the show, Nan Hanchuan leaned against the railing, listening to the cheers outside the stage. He was typing a message in the group chat to Li Bochen on his phone.
" Tch, this sister-in-law is amazing. I was thinking of pulling some strings and rigging the vote for her, but it seems she already took first place on her own."
I am a lawyer: 【If you cheat votes for such activities, it is illegal. You better think it over carefully. 】
>
"I'm not considering that all the shows here are organized by Lao Li, so there's no reason why she shouldn't get first place."
"@Ye is not Ye: 【This activity is over, Lao Li and his ex-sister-in-law are completely broken up, right Does he dare to do that】"
The suave and handsome man said: “I bet ten thousand dollars that he won't be able to bear it.”
Nán Hánchuān still wanted to bet passionately when he saw Xiāo Jǐn and Huò Zhuó rushing over in a hurry. A hint of puzzlement flashed in his wicked eyes, "What are you two doing Aren't you going to watch Xiǎoxīxī give her acceptance speech"
Xiao Jin's face was grave. "No time to explain, we need to go to the stage control room, President Luo might be in trouble."
……
At the same time, on stage.
Next, we have the pleasure of inviting Ms. Luo Ningxi, Chairman of the Luo Group, to the stage to accept the award and give a speech!
Under the watchful eyes of thousands, Luo Ningxi, accompanied by countless flashes and cheers, walked gracefully onto the award ceremony stage in a flowing ink-and-wash gown!
Luo Ningxi's crystal-clear and captivating eyes swept across the venue. After clearing her throat, she spoke, "Everyone, I am Luo Ningxi, the president of the Luo Group. I am delighted that the jewelry from the Luo Group can be unveiled to you today. Thank you all for your love for our original designs, especially this Qionghua jade pendant..."
"Lord Luo keeps saying these two words, 'original,' doesn't he feel ashamed at all!"
Suddenly, a woman's sharp voice came from the doorway, abruptly drawing everyone's attention!leeve.At that moment, Xiaoting suddenly remembered something and spoke up, "Oh, by the way, President Luo, Mrs. Li also mentioned that she wanted you to attend her son's birthday party in person and b...
