Chapter 2260 - 2260 Twins
“Weiyang, I heard that you’re participating in the International Fashion Design Competition?”
“Yes, it’s the preliminary round.”
“That’s great. You should’ve participated in this competition long ago. Otherwise, you wouldn’t have been mocked by Qiao Jierou. How dare she accept an interview and slander your ability in the design industry? I think she really doesn’t know the immensity of heaven and earth.” Xiao Qing didn’t have a good impression of Qiao Jierou and was very disdainful when she spoke about her.
“Yes, I should have participated long ago.”
This competition was held once every four years. Four years ago, when she was experiencing a painful struggle in her heart, she couldn’t care less about participating.
Otherwise, she would have participated that time.
It was a little late now, but fortunately, it was not too late.
Xiao Qing also recalled that she had encountered a lot of things four years ago. She didn’t want to talk about it anymore and changed the topic. “How are your results?”
“There’s no result yet.”
“Then I’ll give you my blessings first. How about having dinner together?”
Qiao Weiyang smiled and said, “Okay, book a place.”
After hanging up the phone, she asked the driver to send her to the location sent by Xiao Qing. After saying goodbye to Tao Huan, she went to a private room in a restaurant.
Xiao Qing had already arrived and was waiting for her at the door. When she saw her coming, she waved happily and went forward to hug her. “Long time no see, pretty lady.”
“Alright, stop being so clingy. If we’re photographed, someone will write that I’m a lesbian.” Qiao Weiyang held her arm.
“I don’t care what outsiders say, but I still have to give Mr. Su face, so I won’t get too close to you.” Xiao Qing stood up straight. “Quick, sit down. What do you want to eat?”
“Let’s just get what we usually eat.”
“That’s good. I don’t need to add any more dishes. I’ve already ordered all your favorite foods.” She looked very cute as if she was asking for praise.
Qiao Weiyang couldn’t help but laugh. With so many cute and loving friends around her, she felt that the entire world was cute and loving.
The two of them sat down. Xiao Qing said to the attendant, “The dishes can be served now.”
“Was today’s competition difficult?” Xiao Qing asked.
“It was fine.”
“Compared to the jewelry design competition?”
“They both have their own difficulties. You know this; you studied jewelry design too.”
“I was just playing around. I’m not as professional as you,” Xiao Qing said. She lowered her head and took out something from her bag. “I have something to ask of you.”
Qiao Weiyang saw that she had taken out a brocade box. She took it, opened it, and took a look. It was a man’s brooch with the image of a dragon on it. It was lifelike.
This design was unique and had never been seen on the market.
Qiao Weiyang thought for a moment and knew that Xiao Qing had made it herself.
“For him?” Qiao Weiyang asked.
Xiao Qing smiled again and nodded. “My design is not bad, right?”
“That’s right. A dragon’s appearance is noble and powerful, but it doesn’t lose its true form. Gold is forged to show the auspicious wealth of a dragon, and the finishing touch is the dragon’s eyes. Did you use high mountain jade?” Qiao Weiyang commented.
“That’s right. It’s high mountain jade. It’s the finishing touch. Naturally, the jade has to be the best. Please help me find a reason to give it to him. Don’t say that it’s from me. If you do, I’m guessing he definitely won’t accept it.” Xiao Qing shook Qiao Weiyang’s arm. “Please, please.”
“Qing Qing.” Qiao Weiyang put down the box. “Why bother?”
“I want to. Besides, there won’t be any opportunities in the future.” Xiao Qing smiled and said, “Besides, it’s fine if he doesn’t know that it’s from me, right?”
“I just don’t want to see you get hurt… It’s hard to like someone like this.”
“It’s not hard!” Xiao Qing said. “So are you going to help me or not? If not, I’ll find someone else.”
Seeing that she was determined, Qiao Weiyang could only say, “Alright, I’ll help you. However, I don’t want there to be a next time. It’s not that I won’t help you next time, but I don’t want to see you so disappointed and sad anymore.”
“Okay! I promise! Today, no, tomorrow… Next month, I’ll agree to meet my mother’s friend’s son and meet more people. I’ll try to find a man who can move my heart as soon as possible.”
Qiao Weiyang smiled and said, “Okay, I wish you success.”
“It’ll definitely work. Don’t you know who I am?”
“Yes, with your beauty, you can win over a hundred men without even lifting a finger.”
Xiao Qing also laughed.
…
Qiao Jierou returned to the Qiao family’s residence after the competition.
Old Madam Qiao and Huang Shumin were both waiting for her. When they saw her, they immediately asked, “How was the competition?”
“It shouldn’t be a big problem. At that time, the judges kept nodding at my work.” Qiao Jierou smiled and said, “Grandma, Mom, don’t worry.”
“Our Jierou has always been the most obedient. There’s definitely no problem,” Huang Shumin said with a smile.
“I heard that Weiyang is also participating in the competition?” Old Madam Qiao asked.
Qiao Jierou’s expression froze slightly. “Yes, Sister went too. That’s normal. She’s in this line of work, after all.”
“Normal? Why didn’t she participate in the competition four years ago? At that time, she had a good opportunity. I think she just wants to compare herself to you. If you weren’t participating, she wouldn’t have joined either. She’s insisting on comparing herself to you.”
This was why Old Madam Qiao especially disliked Qiao Weiyang.
Qiao Jierou lowered her head and remained silent. The more Old Madam Qiao scolded her sister, the happier she was.
Huang Shumin persuaded, “Qiao Weiyang didn’t participate in the competition a few years ago because she just gave birth…”
“Shut up!” Huang Shumin’s words were undoubtedly adding fuel to the fire. Old Madam Qiao was so angry that she was panting.
This was really the greatest humiliation of the Qiao family. All of this was brought about by Qiao Weiyang. With Qiao Weiyang around, the Qiao family would not be able to erase this humiliation.
At the mention of this, she became angrier.
Qiao Jierou quickly said, “Grandma, I should be able to successfully enter the finals this time. Everything will be fine. Don’t worry.”
“Of course, I’m relieved. I don’t know how many lifetimes I’ve been blessed to have a granddaughter like you. When you enter the finals, I’ll celebrate with you. I must make it a grand celebration and let everyone know!”
