Finally, after an entire day of mock practice, Jun Shiling’s throat was a little dry. Lin Wei handed him a glass of warm water soaked in red dates.

“Sir, it’s already eight in the evening. I’ll bring the food over for you.” From noon to eight in the evening, Jun Shiling had been discussing with everyone and giving orders non-stop. Lin Wei felt very tired watching from the side.

“Okay, thank you.” Jun Shiling nodded at Lin Wei, then looked at the time. Calculating the time difference, it was three in the morning in France. Xia Wanyuan should be asleep, so he did not plan to call her again.

However, when he saw Xia Yu’s message, Jun Shiling frowned. What proposal?

Lin Wei quickly brought Jun Shiling’s dinner over.

“Officer, you’ve worked hard.” Lin Wei placed the things in front of Jun Shiling and looked at him with admiration.

Lin Wei was famous for being arrogant here and had strict requirements for her subordinates. When Jun Shiling first arrived, she thought that this young man was only good-looking. Who would have thought that he could actually mediate the chaotic situation in the entire southwest region alone? She was extremely impressed and immediately treated Jun Shiling with extreme respect.

“You guys have worked hard too.” Jun Shiling nodded. Over the past few days, everyone had followed him day and night to catch up on their progress. It had indeed been hard on them. Although Lin Wei was a woman, her ability to do things was extremely strong. She did not show any signs of fatigue from the high-intensity rotation these few days.

Lin Wei looked at Jun Shiling’s cold side profile and was about to say something when Jun Shiling’s phone rang. Seeing the word “baby” on the phone, Lin Wei’s eyes flickered and she retreated to the side.

Ignoring his food, Jun Shiling picked up the phone. “Why aren’t you asleep yet? Are you thirsty? Didn’t I tell you to remember to put a glass of warm water beside you before you sleep?”

“Mm ~” Having her situation guessed by Jun Shiling, Xia Wanyuan replied awkwardly, “Then I forgot ~”

“What if you catch a cold? Continent O is so cold. I’ll get the hotel to send you water before you sleep tomorrow night.” After talking for the entire day, even though his throat was already very uncomfortable, Jun Shiling did not forget to remind Xia Wanyuan.

Xia Wanyuan sniffed. “Time passes so slowly. I want to go home.”

Xia Wanyuan felt that she was getting more and more backward. In the past, when she went out to fight for a few months or years, she did not think of home so much. Now, it had only been two days, and she wanted to go home so much.

Hearing Xia Wanyuan’s voice, Jun Shiling felt uncomfortable. “How many days more?”

“Two days.”

“Mm, soon. Be good and sleep. You have a busy day tomorrow.”

“Jun Shiling, what’s wrong with your voice? Is it difficult today?” From the beginning, Xia Wanyuan could tell that something was wrong, but Jun Shiling had been deliberately hiding it. However, he was extremely tired and could not hide it no matter what.

“Mm, I had a meeting for the entire day.” Jun Shiling rubbed his eyebrows. “I’m preparing to eat.”

“Then eat. Turn on the video. I want to accompany you. You’re not allowed to let me sleep.” As if knowing what Jun Shiling was going to say, Xia Wanyuan stopped him.

“Okay.” Jun Shiling smiled helplessly and switched to a video call.

On the other end of the line, Xia Wanyuan was nestled on the bed, half of her face buried in the blanket. She was very close to the camera, and one could see her distinct eyelashes. Jun Shiling looked at her carefully before lowering his head to eat.

Xia Wanyuan looked at Jun Shiling in the video. Behind him was a large screen with flashing red dots. The food was very simple, three dishes and a soup. Although Jun Shiling’s actions were elegant, he seemed to be hungry. He ate a little anxiously, and his face was filled with fatigue.

Xia Wanyuan did not speak and lay quietly on the pillow, watching Jun Shiling finish the food in front of him.

“Alright, I’m done eating. Go to sleep.” Jun Shiling looked at the quiet Xia Wanyuan in the camera.

Her eyes surged, and it was unknown what she was thinking.

“Mm.” Xia Wanyuan was about to turn off her phone when she suddenly thought of something. “Can you not hang up? I want to see you tomorrow morning when I wake up.”

“Okay, as you wish.” Jun Shiling stood up and walked to the lounge with his phone. “Sleep.”

Only then did Xia Wanyuan close her eyes in peace.

Behind Jun Shiling, Lin Wei had a complicated expression.

She had seen the toughest and most charming side of a man.

Then, she saw his gentle and accommodating expression.

No woman could resist such a temptation.

Four hours later, the sun rose in France.

Xia Wanyuan opened her eyes and took the phone. As expected, the call was still connected. Jun Shiling was lying on the bed with his eyes closed, deep in sleep.

Xia Wanyuan watched for a while before reaching out to hang up. Then, she took a selfie with the first ray of sunlight in the morning and sent it to Jun Shiling before getting up to wash up.

Xia Yu was already waiting at the door in high spirits. After accompanying Xia Wanyuan for breakfast, the two of them headed to the Marina Bay Art District.

Today was different from yesterday. Both sides of the road were filled with cars. All sorts of fashion experts and nobles were dressed in gowns and preparing to enter the show.

The entrance of the venue was filled with a large number of media reporters. The sound of shutters rang one after another.

Most of the people who came were from Continent O. Xia Wanyuan did not know them, so she brought Xia Yu into the venue from the back door.

Not long after they entered, a black limousine arrived at the entrance of the venue. Looking at the familiar license plate, the reporters were excited.

A man in a suit got out of the car and exclaimed.

“Prince Charlie is here too!”

“Prince Charlie has always liked to watch shows. Isn’t it normal for him to come here?”

Everyone was still discussing when Prince Charlie walked in surrounded by the organizers.

Before everyone could recover from Prince Charlie’s shock, a car with the letter K drove over.

Only one family in the entire Continent O used a car with the K word. Everyone looked at each other. Was this design competition so prestigious? Even the Cape family was here?! 

Under everyone’s gaze, an exquisite little boy walked out of the car. The unique black jade ring on his finger clearly displayed his identity.

The young master of the Cape family, An Luo.

Although he was still young, as the young master of the Cape family, no one dared to attend to him haphazardly. The organizer personally came out to welcome him in.

Due to the arrival of Prince Charlie and An Luo, the atmosphere in the show venue became even more enthusiastic.

It was half-past eight in the morning in France.

Because there were too many things to do, Jun Shiling only slept for five hours these few days. When the alarm rang, Jun Shiling woke up on time.

He took his phone and saw that the call had been hung up. However, there were two more messages on WeChat.

Jun Shiling clicked on the message. Xia Wanyuan had sent him a photo.

The first ray of morning sunlight shone gently on Xia Wanyuan’s face, softening the curve of her face. She sat on the bed without makeup, but she looked even more beautiful. She smiled at the camera with a dimple, exuding warmth from the inside out.

Other than a photo, there was another sentence. “Hubby, you’ve worked hard ~”

Jun Shiling looked at it quietly for a while and a smile appeared on his face. He reached out and set the photo as his phone background. Then, as if it was filled with electricity, he got up from the bed in high spirits.

At the backstage of the venue, the designers were puzzled when they heard the organizers announce the rules. “Didn’t they say yesterday that the content of today’s competition was after choosing the raw materials? Why is there a competition beforehand?”

“It’s like this.” The organizer gestured for everyone to calm down and began to explain in detail. “The chosen raw materials are for everyone to display their personal designs. In the earlier competition, we will distribute the same fabric to everyone. Everyone will design according to the fabric. Ten people will be selected to participate in the final individual exhibition competition.”

Although it was very sudden, the competition rules were still very fair, so no one had any objections.

On the other hand, the staff standing at the side glanced at Xia Wanyuan a few times. Xia Wanyuan sensed it. When she looked over, the staff looked away.

Generally speaking, a large amount of manpower and resources were needed to cut and sew a high-end custom-made dress. Some even took half a year to complete. It was impossible for many clothes with complicated designs to be made in half a day.

For the fairness of the competition, the organizers stipulated that there was no need to sew the actual clothes. They only needed a detailed design.

The organizers would use the most advanced 3D imaging technology to 100% copy the designers’ designs and project them onto the models. The models would complete the display of the clothes.

The show was showing the contestants’ situation on the big screen.

The designers were brought into special design rooms by the staff to prepare for the first competition.

“Okay, the staff will distribute the fabric to the contestants. Please create your design according to the characteristics of the fabric. The time limit is three hours. After the design is over, we will use 3D imaging technology to project everyone’s design onto the model. The model will show the costume effect to the guests.”

As soon as the host finished speaking, he began to distribute the cloth. It was a large red cloth without any other colors.

Red was an extremely gorgeous color. It had always represented passion, elegance, and was loved by designers.

However, at the same time, because of its overly dazzling color, its design became very difficult. If the design was too simple, it could not unleash the charm of this color. If it was too complicated, it would appear very vulgar.

The designers began to rack their brains to think of what style to design.

Xia Wanyuan felt very close to this bright red cloth. After all, red was the color that China used the most.

The others drew patterns on the electronic screen. Xia Wanyuan looked at the time and recalled the rules of the competition she had just seen. The fabric was limited, but there was no limit to the materials. She raised her hand.

“Contestant No. 6, do you have any questions?” The staff quickly walked over.

“I would like to have full-color embroidery thread and needles.”
