Chapter 348 Entering the finals
Early in the morning, Xiaomai got up early, packed up and went downstairs. Wang Yu and Nan Nan had already come down. He Lingting took Xiaomai directly to the lounge where a makeup artist was waiting.
"Mr. He!" The makeup artist saw He Lingting and greeted him respectfully.
"Well, this is my wife." He Lingting pulled Xiaomai to sit in front of the mirror.
Xiaomai knew that this was going to be another hassle, so she said helplessly, "Honey, I don't think it's necessary. I'm going to a competition, not a beauty pageant. Besides, am I not naturally beautiful?"
"Of course you are naturally beautiful, so I have to make you look uglier so that others won't see your beauty." He Lingting said softly.
"Go aside! I don't want to do that. How can I face people if I make myself ugly? Makeup artist, don't listen to him. Make me look more beautiful." Xiaomai puffed out her cheeks and pushed He Lingting out. "I won't let you see it. I'm going to go out now. By the way, call Nannan in." Xiaomai said to He Lingting.
"What did you call her for?"
"Why, can't the makeup artist do some makeup for her too? She's also participating in the competition!" Xiaomai said.
"Okay, I'll go call her." He Lingting said and turned to leave. He walked up to Wang Yu and said, "Take her in!"
"Yes, sir." Wang Yu responded and took Nan Nan into the lounge. Nan Nan followed him without knowing why.
"Wow! Xiaomai, you are so beautiful. You should only be in heaven! How did you end up on earth?" Nan Nan said exaggeratedly. In fact, Xiaomai only put on some light makeup, but she was so beautiful.
The makeup artist was a foreigner and had seen many oriental beauties, but this was the first time he had seen such a lively girl, her beauty seemed unreal.
Xiaomai changed into the white dress that He Lingting had prepared for her, and she looked like an elf lost in the world.
Even though Nan Nan and Wang Yu were very familiar with Xiao Mai, they were still shocked by her pure temperament.
Xiaomai pushed Nannan and said, "Don't just stand there like an idiot. Go put on some makeup. Today is a global live broadcast."
"Ah! I want to put on makeup too! But..." Nan Nan knew that this makeup artist was specially hired by the president for Xiaomai, so how could she feel embarrassed?
"Don't say but, go quickly, Nan Nan." Wang Yu also pushed her. Since the master asked her to bring Nan Nan in, it meant that he tacitly agreed.
Nan Nan sat in front of the mirror nervously, and the makeup artist began to work on her face. Soon, she looked at herself in the mirror and felt a little strange. "Is this me, Xiaomai?"
"It's you, you are so beautiful!" Xiaomai praised her with a smile. The makeup artist was really good. After his efforts, Nannan seemed like a different person. Xiaomai picked out a piece of clothing for her to change into, and Nannan's image instantly reached a higher level.
Then everyone went to the competition site. Xiaomai tightly grasped He Lingting's big hand and said, "Honey, I'm nervous."
"Be good, don't be afraid. Your husband is sitting in the audience watching you." He Lingting patted her little hand and comforted her.
The competition finally began. Xiaomai was really nervous when she first came on stage, but when she mentioned her major and talked about her favorite jewelry design work, she gradually got into the state. Her soft and sweet voice echoed in every corner of the venue, touching people's hearts.
When Xiaomai stood on the stage, the whole crowd was excited. What a beautiful fairy! With such a soft voice, Xiaomai showed the cuteness and agility of an oriental woman to the fullest. The key is that her insights into jewelry design and her talent for design also made the masters on the scene ashamed. What a great oriental girl, she was born to do this job. At such a young age, she can have such a profound understanding of jewelry raw stones. The young are really formidable!
He Lingting looked at the little girl on the stage with tenderness in his eyes. She is mine.
When he heard people around him talking about Xiaomai, he felt very proud and thought, of course my baby is the best.
When he saw everyone's sparkling eyes staring at the little girl, he instantly felt cold all over, and the people around him exclaimed, "It's so cold!"
He Lingting sat in his seat, oblivious to the people around him, just staring at his baby.
There was also a pair of eyes at the back of the competition venue looking at the stage affectionately. The white figure had always attracted his attention. Seeing that she was so talented, he was more determined to get her idea.
The competition finally ended, and the results were as everyone expected. Xiaomai entered the top ten finals, while Nannan was eliminated in the semifinals. However, she was not at the bottom. Among the top twenty, she ranked thirteenth, which was also a cause for celebration. She broke through herself, performed to her best, and had no regrets. She was also very satisfied.
In the design department of Qingtian in China, everyone can no longer work peacefully. They also want to see the live broadcast situation and are concerned about Xiaomai and Nannan who are thousands of miles away, especially Zhang Pengfei, one is his wife and the other is a good friend.
When he arrived at the company in the morning, he suggested watching the live broadcast. Wang Yu had not been in the company for the past few days, and the design department was leaderless. Zhang Pengfei proposed it and everyone agreed.
When the time was up, everyone placed their phones on the table and started watching the game. The competition was very intense. "Xiaomai is amazing. She can stand out from so many strong opponents. Nannan is also great. The little girl has made great progress!" Liu Yuxin also said happily for the two of them.
"Of course. Don't you see who they are?" Zhang Pengfei started to act like a loser again.
"Why are you so proud? When people say your wife is good, they are not talking about you. Can you please have some shame?" Li Qiang said jokingly.
"Praising my wife is praising me, so what? If you have the ability, you can find such a great wife!" Zhang Pengfei said shamelessly.
"Tsk, you are just a mean guy who has succeeded! Sooner or later, Nan Nan will kick you out." Li Qiang got angry when he saw him like that. They were both older young men, but why could that loser find a concubine while he was still alone? And why did that guy make him angry at this moment?
"Nannan won't listen to you." Zhang Pengfei said again in a mean way.
"Okay, you two are grown men, why are you arguing over such a small thing? Think about it, is our company going to move to a higher level from now on?" Yang Liu asked.
"Of course, little sister, just work hard in this company! You will make more and more money in the future." Liu Yuxin said.
"Yes! The company's treatment will definitely be better in the future, but I envy Xiaomai and Nannan more! They are going international!" Yang Liu said enviously. In fact, she still felt a little jealous in her heart. They both entered Qingtian through the Sucheng Jewelry Competition. The two of them rose to a higher level, while she was still a small designer. She felt a little unwilling to accept this.
"Don't be discouraged, little sister. There will be plenty of opportunities in the future," Liu Yuxin advised.
"Oh, by the way, since Nan Nan has stopped, should she come back? I have to think about how to celebrate for my wife." Zhang Pengfei said in surprise.
"Tsk..." Everyone rolled their eyes at him and started working. They were all happy for Xiaomai and Nannan.
