Chapter 19: 019 Gentle_1
Accompanied by the jubilant music, Gong Beiming's tall figure walked toward Chi Xiaoyu.
Chi Xiaoyu felt an inexplicable tension... Under the stage lighting, she could see even more clearly.
He had a face that seemed meticulously sculpted, the corners of his lips incredibly perfect,
A deep smile emerged at the corners, making her blush and her heart race, and she subconsciously tightened her grip on the hem of her garment.
Such a handsome man made all the girls wish they were Chi Xiaoyu, to personally accept the award from him.
His well-defined fingers, holding a golden mermaid trophy, presented it in front of her.
"You are the most special..."
His deep and sexy voice brushed past her eardrum, sending her heart into a slight tremor of excitement.
When she took the trophy, his slender fingers gently swept across the back of her hand, causing her to tremble with the heat of his touch.
She caught the faint scent of cologne emanating from him.
A particular, dominant masculine fragrance enveloped her thickly, making her almost too timid to look him in the eye directly.
After she received the trophy, he unexpectedly reached out to embrace her.
Her petite frame was almost entirely wrapped by his towering figure, very warm, with a subtle sense of security.
Of course, to others, this embrace was just a form of blessing.
But in the eyes of certain people, it appeared very different.
Chi Tingting felt intense resentment in her heart; that bitch Chi Xiaoyu had been held by DI's president—it was sheer dumb luck.
Bo Xuan's gaze, however, was extremely complex, his expression particularly ugly, as he unconsciously crumpled the scoring card in his hand.
Could it be that watching her being embraced by another man would cause him such heartache?
Though wearing ten-centimeter high heels was tiresome, Chi Xiaoyu was very happy tonight.
Not only had she dealt Chi Tingting a powerful blow, but she also unexpectedly won the first prize.
Her small face glowed with joy, eyes reddened, tears glistening.
It hadn't been easy.
Through the several nights she had stayed up late, fighting off sleep, she ultimately clenched her teeth and endured it.
She had won, having fought a beautiful and small battle of vindication, and it was all worth it.
Gong Beiming only embraced her briefly before pulling away.
Such a person, even finding time in his busy schedule to come, had already shown her great honor; how could he stay for long?
Watching his dashing and handsome back, her mind suddenly went blank – what exactly had he said to her? She couldn't remember a single word.
When she walked out of the auditorium, a large group of juniors crowded the corridor, eagerly awaiting.
They all held bouquets of flowers, anxiously waiting.
And when Chi Xiaoyu appeared, they all surged toward her.
"Senior Chi, please give us an autograph!"
"Senior Chi, we are all your loyal fans, I really love your Mist Cage Moon! Could you tell us about your design inspiration?"
"Miss Chi, we are reporters from XXA Television Station, could you spare some time to accept our interview?"
"Miss Chi, we are from XX Fashion Company, our main products are cheongsams, could we have the honor to invite you to our company?"
Chi Xiaoyu smiled graciously, "Thank you everyone for your support, please follow my Weibo, and I will update with design inspirations and the production process. As for the interview, let's put it on hold for now!"
Meanwhile, as the crowd was drawn to Chi Xiaoyu.
Chi Tingting hat on to shield her face, planning to slip away in the chaos.
She was just spotted by Xia Xixi.
How could Xia Xixi let go of such an opportune moment? She yelled, "Look, Chi Tingting is coming out! The most shameless woman in the whole world!"
Suddenly, the crowd encircled Chi Tingting like a tide.
All she was met with was a barrage of curses, and the foul eggs flying through the air...
