Chapter 1527 - Chancing Upon Yan Menglu (2/2)

“Miss Wen must be kidding. How are you still the same—you’re doing as well as you can. These past few years, even though I’m in Harbor City, I’ve heard all about your accomplishments. Miss Wen is really something to be even famous in Harbor City.”

Yan Menglu stood tall at 1.7 meters, and, with her 15-centimeter high heels, standing before Wen Xinya right now, she had a height advantage which made her have an odd sense of superiority when facing Wen Xinya.

Yan Menglu disliked Wen Xinya very much. In the semester when she studied at the Capital University, she was obviously on par with Wen Xinya regardless of background, looks, talents, or capabilities. However, Wen Xinya trumped her in all aspects.

Wen Xinya became Ji Shihan’s student and started to excel in jewelry design, gradually surpassing her. Thus, everyone compared her to Wen Xinya, saying that she was inferior. This made the proud Yan Menglu feel horrible and hate Wen Xinya even more.

Yan Menglu’s words were still mean and harsh as before. However, compared to the past, they were already much prettier. “Miss Yan, you flatter me.”

The mild words were neither serious nor frivolous and neither soft nor hard, but they made Yan Menglu’s mocking words feel like punching cotton, which enraged her.

“Wen Xinya, do you think I’m praising you?” Yan Menglu detested how Wen Xinya always looked so calm as if she didn’t have a care in the world and everyone was worthless ants in her eyes. Every time she saw this look of hers, she couldn’t help but grit her teeth.

Seeing how Yan Menglu was smiling mildly without speaking, Wen Xinya totally ignored her sarcasm.

Yan Menglu’s expression changed mysteriously and suddenly laughed weirdly. “Wen Xinya, I admit that you’re indeed talented in jewelry design and better than me. However, today, your journey will only stop here. If you’re thinking about emerging as champion, it’s only wishful thinking.”

Based on her knowledge, the grand finals this time was based on the design theme of the ruby. Everyone knew that Wen Xinya had previously used ruby for a couple of her designs for the red-themed jewelry series for the Wen Corporation. With that precursor, it would be even more difficult for Wen Xinya to use the same theme and win.

Wen Xinya knew what Fang Menglu meant and said mildly, “Miss Yan doesn’t have to worry about this. It’s not up to you to decide my competition results.”

Indeed, to Wen Xinya, the design curriculum was a huge challenge. However, Wen Xinya was already currently better than before. Because of that seven treasures necklace, she had officially entered the ranks of the great jewelry designers. Recently, with the assistance of Teacher Ji, she stayed focused and drilled on what she had already learned. Naturally, the products that she designed would surpass her previous works.

Rebutted by such neither casual nor serious remark, Yan Menglu couldn’t help but become agitated momentarily as the hostility in her eyes gradually grew. “Oh, is that so? We’ll watch and see, then.”

Yan Menglu had followed her senior to Milan this time. Her senior, Shen Siwen, had entered the grand finals of this Jewelry Design Competition in second place, right behind Wen Xinya.

Wen Xinya was Shen Siwen’s strongest competitor.

Shen Siwen was very wary of Wen Xinya. However, after knowing about the theme of the grand finals, she was no longer afraid of Wen Xinya.

“Okay!”

The plain word was said in a calm tone, without the least bit of emotion.
