C2386 The First Snow
Huo Niannian raised her eyebrows and quietly stared at Du Ruoqing, waiting for her to continue.
"I saw on the internet that there was a huge controversy regarding sister-in-law's participation in the competition, but I believe sister-in-law must have entered the preliminary round with her own strength."
Du Ruoqing looked at Huo Niannian with a smile, but in her heart, she was thinking, how much strength could Huo Niannian, this kind of embroidered pillow, have?
She was able to participate in the competition because of Professor Ning Zhiyuan, otherwise, based on her ideas, she would not even be able to step into the threshold of the competition!
As for Huo Niannian actually passed the preliminary round, Du Ruoqing did not believe that it was her own strength. She guessed that Huo Niannian must have bought the drafts from other designers and won the competition with her underhanded means. Truly despicable!
Regarding Du Ruoqing's sarcasm, Huo Niannian only treated it as wind blowing past her ears. Her left ear went in and out of her right ear. She did not take it to heart at all.
She would not be angry because of Du Ruoqing's few words. After all, being angry hurt her own body.
She curved her lips and said with a smile, "Thank you for your trust."
Du Ruoqing choked. She did not expect Huo Niannian to be so shameless!
How could she trust her? !
Did Huo Niannian not hear that she was mocking her?!
Damn it!
Du Ruoqing was furious and said through gritted teeth, "Looks like sister-in-law's strength is very outstanding. Since that's the case, I believe sister-in-law will be able to get first place in the semifinals, right?"
Huo Niannian was amused. Was Du Ruoqing trying to discredit her? Had she changed the topic? Du Ruoqing wished that she could announce her thoughts to the world.
Just as she was about to speak, she saw two small lobsters that she loved appearing on the plate in front of her.
She turned her head and saw Gu Tingshen seriously peeling the prawns for her. His movements were meticulous and elegant.
Huo Niannian's heart softened. She only cared about looking at Gu Tingshen and forgot to talk to Du Ruoqing.
In the blink of an eye, Gu Tingshen peeled another prawn and put it on Huo Niannian's plate. He said softly, "Eat it."
"Yes, yes." Huo Niannian smiled sweetly.
When Du Ruoqing saw this, her nails dug into her palms!
She viciously glared at Huo Niannian, wishing that the chicken in front of her was transformed by Huo Niannian and that she would eat it.
Suddenly, a sharp and cold gaze landed on her.
Du Ruoqing was shocked and felt a chill on her back. She looked up and saw Gu Tingshen quietly looking at her.
Her hand trembled and almost shattered the bowl in front of her.
"Huh."
Gu Tingshen sneered. Seeing Du Ruoqing's stiff body, the ridicule on his face increased.
He never had a good temper when it came to other people, let alone Du Ruoqing.
She had repeatedly framed Niannian and hurt Huo Niannian and his family. If it wasn't for the Du Family's Old Master and Grandpa, he would have attacked her a long time ago.
But Du Ruoqing actually did not repent and deliberately harmed Niannian's reputation in front of Grandpa.
Gu Tingshen sneered. It seemed that if he did not teach her a lesson, she would not know how to restrain herself!
"Tingshen, don't be angry. Ruoqing just trusts Niannian too much. Don't lower yourself to her level."2
Just as Gu Tingshen was about to speak, Yin Jie bit the bullet and rushed to defend Du Ruoqing before him.
Although she said that, she also scolded Du Ruoqing in her heart.
What an idiot! He actually made things difficult for Huo Niannian in front of Gu Tingshen! Wasn't this courting death? !
Yin Jie looked at Du Ruoqing one more time and felt annoyed, but she had no choice but to step forward to protect Du Ruoqing. Because they were on the same boat, she still had to rely on Gu Zifan to defeat Gu Tingshen.
"It seems that Du Miss has already forgotten about what happened last time. I don't mind helping Du Miss recall again."
Gu Tingshen ignored Yin Jie's words and gently opened his mouth, throwing out a huge rock.
He clearly did not make it clear, but Du Ruoqing understood. He was talking about what happened in S Country last time. He wanted to send her back to jail...
Du Ruoqing's face instantly turned pale. She did not want it!
She didn't want to experience a life worse than death again! She didn't want to go to prison again!
She only said a few words and did not do anything to Huo Niannian. Why did he do this to her...
