Chapter 49: Disappointment

The a.e jewelry competition is broadcast live globally. Ji Xingchen is sitting in the audience with an upright posture, paying attention to her image as a celebrity anytime and anywhere.

There are a total of ten designers in the finals. Different from the semi-finals, the finals have no fixed theme and are left to the contestants to express themselves freely.

Many designers have designed drafts for the finals in advance.

Ji Xingchen is no exception.

The designers on the stage are showing their work.

Off the stage, Ji Xingchen sat in the candidate seat, looking down at his design manuscript.

It's a bracelet.

With the theme of fireflies, accompanied by dots of starlight, emeralds and diamonds are embellished with each other, creating an ethereal and fairy atmosphere. However, the chain part uses complicated links, like iron chains, to firmly lock the fireflies and starlight, full of

A sense of dark confinement.

Her original work was not this. It was after Lu Yanbei took her to see the fireflies all over the mountains that night that she redesigned it based on the fireflies' sparkles.

Thinking of that night, Ji Xingchen's eyes moved slightly, and the corners of his lips raised an arc inadvertently.

When the time comes, this work will be used to win awards and then made into couple bracelets. She and Lu Yanbei will each wear one.

That bitch man can't be moved to death?

Ji Xingchen thought proudly.

"This is a necklace with the theme of fireflies in the forest. It is inspired by the most important person in my life. Most of the works I have designed over the years are actually related to him. The prototype of the Wrong Love series of jewelry that once appeared in the circle is him.

"

Ji Xingchen suddenly raised his eyes.

Liang Ruo smiled broadly, as if he was nostalgic: "In the darkest time of my life, he took me to the highest mountain forest in Beicheng on a motorcycle. I stood on the top of the mountain overlooking the whole city, and he stood beside me.

I attracted fireflies all over the mountains and fields. That day was a turning point in my life and the beginning of my transformation."

Liang Ruo: "He was an unreachable dream when I was young. At that time, I had low self-esteem and was sensitive, but he was the proud son of heaven. There was an insurmountable gap between us. If time could go back, I think, I

I will agree to his confession that night."

Ji Xingchen had some tinnitus, and she even suspected that there was something wrong with her ears.

Otherwise, why could she not understand a word Liang Ruo said so much?

When Liang Ruo finished speaking, she couldn't hide her regret and excitement. She smiled slightly and looked towards a certain location under the stage.

"Brother Yan, I hope my work can be worn by its owner."

When Liang Ruo shouted, everyone's attention was attracted.

The face that Ji Xingchen was so familiar with appeared on the big screen.

The man was sitting in the corner, wearing a black suit with an ascetic and cold look, a slightly open collar, and the same gold-rimmed glasses on his nose.

Gentle, cool, and arrogant.

Ji Xingchen watched the man stand up, watched him take the stage, and then watched Liang Ruo shyly put the firefly-themed necklace around his neck.

turn out to be……

Anyone can see fireflies.

Ji Xingchen was in a trance for a while. The excited cheers around her and the judges' teasing on the stage stung her eardrums with sharp pain.

She was like a fighting peacock just now, and her little thoughts towards Liang Ruozhi, in Liang Ruo's eyes, she was actually like a clown, right?

No wonder I had to reply to the message.

It must be that I have no time to catch a flight. Did I come over immediately to support my sweetheart as soon as I got off the plane?

Thinking of the message he sent asking him to watch the live broadcast on time, Ji Xingchen suddenly felt his face hurt.

She lowered her eyes and glanced at her manuscript, then crumpled it into a ball with great force.

The bustle on stage has ended.

Ji Xingchen stood up, his high heels suddenly tilted and he almost fell down.

There was a burst of strength in her arm, and someone supported her.

"Slower."

Ji Xingchen's body froze for a second, and he opened his eyes. In front of him was the face he had seen countless times when he woke up from a midnight dream.

She didn't make a sound, she just avoided his hand and went on stage quietly.

Lu Yanbei's eyes darkened, and the look under the lenses was incomprehensible.

Ji Xingchen changed back to the previous design draft and introduced his design concept calmly.

Except the slightly trembling fingertips gave her away.

The manuscript was a semi-finished product, and she changed it to Yinghuo's design halfway through the design.

The results can be imagined.

She only came in seventh, and Liang Ruo came in third.

Ji Xingchen stood in the audience and watched Liang Ruo receive the award.

The pride deep in her bones did not allow her to be a deserter.

Even if you lose.

It wasn't until Lu Yanbei came on stage as the award guest that Ji Xingchen suddenly realized.

Oh, it turns out he is a.e's special guest.

There was a lot of noise around her, but the glory did not belong to her.

Ji Xingchen took one last look at the stage, and Lu Yanbei just raised his head and looked towards her.

The two people's eyes collided in the air.

Ji Xingchen curled his lips and smiled, almost sarcastically, and then stopped smiling a little.

Behind him, Chen Tong laughed softly: "So what if you get married? The person Lu Yanbei loves from the beginning to the end is Liang Ruo. You are just making a choice after weighing the pros and cons. Is it comfortable to share the same bed with different dreams every day?

?”

Liang Ruo...

Liang Ruo.

Ji Xingchen pressed the tip of his teeth firmly, and after a long moment, he turned around indifferently.

Before the award ceremony was over, Liang Ruo saw Ji Xingchen leaving and subconsciously looked at Lu Yanbei.

The latter's face suddenly darkened, he picked up his coat and left.

Liang Ruo held him back: "It's not over yet..."

The man looked coldly: "Let go."

Lu Yanbei chased after him, and when the night wind blew by, he caught sight of that graceful figure.

He took a few steps forward and grabbed her arm.

He said in a deep voice: "Take my car."

Ji Xingchen paused and shook off his hand forcefully, his voice trembling in the cool breeze.

"How dare you come out to chase me? Ah? What shame do you have!" Ji Xingchen caught a glimpse of the firefly necklace around his neck from the corner of his eye, and Ji Xingchen laughed, with uncontrollable hysteria in his laughter.

"I sent a message asking you to watch the live broadcast but you didn't reply, but came to support Liang Ruo! Do you know this is a global live broadcast? My husband is wearing a necklace designed by another woman. Do you want the whole world to come?

Are you seeing my joke?!"

The anger that had been suppressed all night exploded at this moment: "How romantic is a confession under the fireflies? I don't know if your first love knew that you were having sex with me in the car during the firefly feast when you confessed to her.

Don’t you think you are dirty?!”

"It's not first love, I can explain this." Lu Yanbei's peach blossom eyes under the lenses were so deep that he couldn't see the bottom.

"Explain?" Ji Xingchen was so angry that his internal organs ached: "Explain how intimate you two were before, explain how unforgettable you are now, or explain that you have been hooking up with each other behind my back for a long time?"

The more she talked, the angrier she became: "You can play whatever you want, I don't want to, and I don't care. But Liang Ruo can't do that! You clearly know my relationship with her, and you know that I hate her the most, but you still want to associate with her.

, you go on stage when she asks you to, wear a necklace when she puts it on you! I didn’t know you were coming, but she knew! Mr. Lu! Young Master Lu! What do you take me for?!"
