Di Ranle did not expect Jinqian to suddenly answer her so loudly. This had completely ruined the sincere 'apology' that she had just given.1

At least half of it was gone.

Although none of them heard her, there were still cameras around. If she continued arguing with Jinqian, this woman might tell them to release the footage.

They might not hear her, but they could still read her lips.

Di Ranle ignored and pretended that she couldn't hear Jinqian as she walked into the hall.

The Chloe Contest had 2 categories.

The first one was for casual looks, and the second category was for gowns.

The casual looks could be of anything.

As for the gowns, it was not limited to only nightgowns; bridal gowns were accepted as well.

The panel of judges included a famous designer from Country Z and four other designers from luxury brands. There were also 5 judges from the Chloe headquarters.

There were 10 of them in total, and each had 10 points to give.

Although the five designers from Chloe were not the best and may not be as good as the 5 other designers, they were still chosen by Chloe to represent them, which showed the power that they had.

As for the participants and audience, they had no say in it at all.

This was the Chloe Contest. Wasn't it normal to have 10 judges as their panel?

However, for Di Ranle, she was in a bad mood when she heard that there were 5 other designers from Chloe, none of them the one she had already bribed.

"What happened?! Didn't he say that he would be one of the judges? How is it possible that he isn't here after taking my money?!"

"Princess Ranle, I'm guessing that something happened to him."

"Something happened? What happened?" Di Ranle asked in dissatisfaction.

"When I received news that Chloe would be sending 5 designers today, I immediately called the other party, but his phone was turned off. I was thinking… What if he was exposed?"

Di Ranle frowned and asked, "What phone did you use when you called him?"

"Rest assured, princess. I used an unknown phone number to call him."

"Would they be able to find out that it was us?" 

Di Ranle was still worried.

If the bribery was known, it would be a heavy sentence.

She was a princess, and these types of things weren't allowed to happen.

"Please do not worry. I was very careful when I did it. Even if they found something, they wouldn't be able to pin it on you, princess. The other party is aware that once he offends you, he would have to bear the consequences."

"Good. What about the other two?"

"All done."

In the gown section, the participating designers had their own models and assistant. Each designer would have three complete designs and their models would be presenting them, along with an explanation of it digitally. The judges would give their score and show them immediately. The top ten would get on stage to present, and only the top three would be able to give a speech of appreciation, along with a ticket to the finals.

A huge crowd walked into the room, including Di Ranle, Jiang Yuxi, and Jing Jie. No one noticed that when Jinqian walked into the room, the judges from Chloe stood up and greeted her.

Jinqian gave them a slight nod before asking them to sit down.

When the audience noticed that all of the designers from Chloe had stood up to greet someone, they wanted to know who it was. They turned to see, but they noticed that there was a huge crowd. When they turned back to see who could be greeting the judges from Chloe, all of them had already returned to their seats.
