The competition time arrived as scheduled. The host walked onto the stage gracefully, picked up the microphone, and his clear voice immediately attracted everyone's attention.

"Hello, contestants and audience friends! Welcome to this grand jewelry design competition." The host opened the ceremony enthusiastically.

Then, the contestants' seat numbers began to scroll on the screen.

"In order to ensure fairness in the competition, we have adopted a lottery method to determine the seats for this competition." The host explained, "Please come up in turn to draw your seats."

Qi Anran's heart beat faster. She took a deep breath, walked forward, and pulled out a note nervously and expectantly.

"No. 13." She looked down at the note, then looked up to find her seat. No. 13 was in the middle of the second row, right in the judges' visual center.

Qi Anran smiled bitterly. Sitting in the middle, she would undoubtedly become the focus of the judges' attention. The feeling of being watched made her feel more pressured.

The competition officially began. The host picked up a piece of paper on the stage and solemnly announced the theme of the competition.

However, when this paper was shown to everyone, the scene exploded instantly.

"There's nothing on this piece of paper?"

"Yeah, did you forget to write the subject?"

"Why is the paper black? Is it possible that the original writing was covered by something?"

The contestants were talking among themselves, with confusion and puzzlement written all over their faces.

Some people even started whispering to each other, speculating on the real purpose of this competition.

The host smiled and waited until the scene quieted down before explaining, "Dear contestants, please be patient. This black paper is the theme of this competition. Black represents mystery, the unknown, and infinite possibilities. We hope that everyone can use their imagination and use this black paper as inspiration to design jewelry. The time is half an hour, and the countdown starts now."

After hearing this explanation, the contestants were even more confused. However, they soon realized that the most important thing now was how to find inspiration on this piece of black paper and create.

Although everyone was confused about the black theme, everyone was trying to find inspiration and create.

Qi Anran also fell into deep thought. She looked at the black paper, her heart full of doubts and uneasiness. However, when she saw Xing Nian's encouraging eyes below the stage, she took a deep breath and calmed herself down.

“Although black seems monotonous, it has infinite possibilities.” Qi Anran began to think about how to combine black with jewelry design to create unique works.

Half an hour passed in a flash. When the staff came forward to collect the design draft, Qi Anran had just finished her work, with a trace of fatigue and uncertainty on her face. She looked at her design with mixed feelings, both expectation and anxiety.

The other designers present had different expressions. Some looked worried, obviously not satisfied with their work; some were so anxious that they almost cried, as if they regretted some of their previous design choices; and some remained calm and confident. But no matter what the result was, everyone had done their best.

The host came on stage and announced: "Dear contestants, today's competition has ended. Thank you all for your hard work. The results of the competition will be announced tonight. To thank you for your support, we will hold a banquet in the banquet hall on the second floor of the hotel tonight. I hope you can come and attend." After that, the host left the stage.

Qi Anran walked up to Xing Nian and lowered her head in disappointment: "Sister Xing Nian, I feel like there's no hope of advancing this time. When I was collecting the design drafts, I glanced at the designs of the people next to me. Their designs were very simple, but very clear, unlike me, who was completely confused."

Xing Nian gently patted Qi Anran's shoulder and comforted her, "Okay, the competition is over, so don't think too much about it. When it comes to designing something, sometimes simplicity doesn't necessarily mean it's good. Your design is very creative, and I believe the judges will see your efforts."

Qi Anran sighed softly: "I hope so."

The banquet mentioned by the host made the two decide to stay.

Xing Nian drove Qi Anran to a nearby high-end shopping mall to choose suitable clothes for the evening event.

As soon as Qi Anran entered the mall, she felt like she was in a shopping paradise. The joy of shopping made her temporarily forget her worries about the results of the game.

She took Xing Nian to shuttle between the various shops, and their tacit cooperation enabled them to quickly choose the clothes to wear in the evening.

However, Qi Anran obviously had not shopped enough, and she pulled Xing Nian to continue trying on various clothes.

In a high-end women's clothing brand store, Qi Anran's attention was attracted by a super short dress.

She gave a wicked smile, as if she had already seen the stunning effect of Xing Nian wearing this dress.

She pulled Xing Nian into the store, pointed directly at the skirt, and asked the waiter to get two sizes suitable for both of them.

When Xing Nian got the dress, her brows furrowed. She looked at the super short dress and felt a little hesitant.

Her usual dressing style is gentle and quiet, and she has never tried such a bold design. She was worried that she would look out of place in this dress.

"Sister Xing Nian, your usual dressing style is too gentle. You should try more different styles."

Qi Anran tried to persuade Xing Nian, "Look, I also got one like yours. It will definitely look good if we wear it together."

Seeing Xing Nian was in a difficult situation, Qi Anran crossed her arms and acted coquettishly: "Sister Xing Nian, just accompany me to wear it. It would be really awkward if I wore it alone. If we wear it together, we will definitely become the focus."

After Qi Anran's constant persuasion, Xing Nian finally agreed to try the dress.

When she put on the skirt and stood in front of the mirror, she felt uncomfortable. She had never worn such a short skirt before, and she felt something was wrong.

Her little hands kept pulling at the hem of her skirt, trying to make it longer, but the design was such that no matter how much she pulled it wouldn't make much of a difference.

"what".

Xing Nian felt someone pat her butt gently. She turned around and saw Qi Anran standing behind her with a smirk on his face.

"Sister Xing Nian, I really can't tell that you have such a good figure. The clothes you usually wear cover up your good figure."

Qi Anran said as she took a hand, "Wow, this waist is too thin."

Xing Nian felt a little itchy when she touched him and wanted to push Qi Anran's hand away.

"what."

In the mirror, all I saw was two white little hands on Xing Nian's chest.

"An Ran, take your hands away!"

But Qi Anran didn't seem to hear and continued her "exploration": "Sister Xing Nian, your figure is so enviable. You have flesh where it should be and not where it shouldn't be. No wonder Brother Mu did that day... If I had a figure like this, I would be so envious."

"Have you touched enough?" Xing Nian finally couldn't bear it anymore and his tone became stern.

Qi Anran then realized that his actions were a bit excessive, and quickly stopped: "It's almost there."

But Xing Nian didn't want to give her another chance. She turned around and launched a "counterattack" against Qi Anran.

Qi Anran was no match for Xing Nian and could only beg for mercy.
