The Outcast Heiress’s Secret Identities
Chapter 546 - Chapter 546 0536 Thats the best

Chapter 546: 0536 That’s the best. Chapter 546: 0536 That’s the best. Su Ran regarded the words of those around her as if they were nothing, slowly lifting her gaze until it finally fell on Abby.

“You’re right, letting a plagiarist win is not only dishonorable but also a disgrace to our fellow countrymen, so everyone, give it your all! Don’t let a plagiarist take the crown!”

Abby and the others were confused by Su Ran’s words. Had this woman given up on herself?

She was actually so sarcastically mocking herself in front of so many people?

But it was good that she could see reality.

Unnoticed by anyone, Su Xinyan, standing to the side, had a subtle change in her expression.

Abby gave Su Ran a look that said ‘I’m glad you know your place’, and then she spoke:

“Hmph, of course, we certainly won’t let a plagiarist win!”

Su Ran secretly laughed and nodded her head.

“That would be best!”

At this moment, the host of the organizers took the microphone and stepped onto the stage.

“Welcome, distinguished fashion designers from around the world to this International Fashion Design Competition. According to the competition’s requirements, the contest consists of preliminary and final rounds.

From those who make it to the finals, judges will score and select the top ten as well as the champions of this competition, with an award ceremony to be held in half a month.

Due to the large number of participants, the format of this year’s preliminary round has been adjusted to test basic skills and adaptability.”

As the host’s voice faded, the whole venue was abuzz.

“Test basic skills and adaptability? How will that be tested?”

“I knew this year’s competition was going to be unusual, but isn’t this a little too unusual?”

“I haven’t prepared at all!”

Upon hearing this, Su Ran’s eyes sparkled, and the corners of her lips curled into a meaningful smile.

From the beginning of the national preliminary competitions this year, she had felt something unusual. The organizers in Country Y stipulated that each country select their top ten to participate in the international competition in Country Y.

This year’s preliminary competition not only changed its rules, but the top ten had also changed to the top twenty.

It seemed to be in preparation for today’s eliminations.

However, things seemed not to be so simple!

While basic skills and adaptability could indeed test a fashion designer’s true level, this was not the main reason for such a major change.

Upon hearing the host’s words, the faces of many people in the room turned pale instantly.

Many were competing for the first time, already nervous, and now faced with a sudden change in the rules, caught everyone off guard.

Furthermore, how exactly these basic skills and adaptability were going to be tested was unknown.

Even Abby, who had made it into the top ten, was caught off guard by the organizers’ sudden attack.

Su Xinyan also clenched her hands tightly, her face tense.

Lydia, the time unknown, came to her side, sneering disdainfully:

“So, our dear Heart also gets nervous, huh? Aren’t you the one who claims to be ‘the most talented designer’? A sudden elimination round has stumped you?”

Su Xinyan glanced at Lydia, her heart full of contempt, but she kept a humble demeanor on her face.

“After all, I’ve been away from the Design Circle for many years, I can’t compare with Sister Lydia’s extensive experience, so naturally, I am nervous.”

Hearing this, Lydia’s disdain deepened, and her look at Su Xinyan lost the initial wariness and jealousy.

“It’s best if you understand. The Design Circle is not a place for your antics. Having left the circle for so many years, you still delusionally hope to win the crown. If I were you, I wouldn’t stay to further embarrass myself, I would simply give up the competition. Maybe then you could still preserve the reputation of Heart.”

The glint of cold in Su Xinyan’s eyes flashed by, and she slowly raised her head, looking innocently and purely at Lydia.

“Is Sister Lydia worried I’ll block your path to the top three? Are you afraid of me?”

Lydia’s complexion changed slightly, “What nonsense are you spouting?”

Su Xinyan smiled gently, “If not, why do I see nervousness and fear in your eyes?”

Lydia’s face turned pale instantaneously!

Glancing at Su Ran, Su Xinyan then said to Lydia,

“Rest assured, I have no interest in your third place. The title of ‘Perennial Third Place’ suits you better, Lydia!”

“You…”

Su Xinyan snorted coldly and paid Lydia no further attention.

Nobody present was within the scope of her consideration: Su Ran, Lydia, Abby–none of them were worth mentioning.

The only one she felt a bit of pressure from was R.

Su Xinyan furrowed her brow and looked around, but she couldn’t find anyone resembling R.

Who on earth was he?

Would he be participating in this year’s competition?

What a pity!

She had wanted to see what he looked like with her own eyes.

She had also wanted to see what expression he would have when someone knocked him off his champion’s pedestal after six consecutive terms.

The design she held was considered by anyone who understood design to be the work of a champion.

Especially after she had showed it to her teacher and Director Song, the shocked and delighted expressions on their faces spoke volumes about the perfection of the design drafts.

Leave alone Lydia, who was merely a third placer, she didn’t even consider the runner-up worth her time.

Now, the only concern she had was the mysterious R, and what kind of design he would present.

Seeing the crowd getting rather excited, the host on stage quickly spoke up again.

“This International Fashion Design Competition has designers from over a hundred countries, with the top twenty from each, totaling over two thousand participants.

This year, our country’s Princess Avril has been invited by Country A to attend the Nixi Socialite Ball hosted by them. Therefore, we ask all contestants to create a gown for Princess Avril on the spot. The judges will score the contestants based on their designs, cutting, craftsmanship, sewing, color coordination, and so on.

The materials, silk threads, and all necessary tools have been prepared on the spot. If your design is favored by Princess Avril, not only will she wear it to the socialite ball, but it will also be displayed and collected by the Global Fashion Association.

Of course, this is just an impromptu elimination round and will not affect the final decision of the competition. Please give it your all, and I hope to see you all again at the finals!”

As the host finished speaking, the entire place exploded with excitement!

“To be worn by Princess Avril to the Nixi Socialite Ball? That’s the most grand and luxurious ball in the world, attended only by princes and princesses from royal families!”

“If selected, it’s like having one foot in the royal and noble circles!”

“And also to be displayed and collected by the Global Fashion Association. As far as I know, R’s winning works from the fourth and fifth competitions are on display there.”

“Ah, I’m so excited, I’m glad I participated in this year’s competition!”

The corners of Su Ran’s lips curled up slightly, and a knowing smile crossed her face.

So that’s how it is!

But when Su Xinyan heard the host’s words, her expression changed again and again!

She remembered, that wretched Su Ran had also been invited to attend the ball!

Why?

Her entire being was filled with resentment!

However, she quickly forced herself to calm down.

Princess Avril might not necessarily take a fancy to a gown made on the spot in an elimination round. There was a good chance she would choose from among the winners of first, second, or third place!
