Suddenly, Qin Yun patted Xiao Liu on the shoulder.

He joked, "What? Staring blankly? Isn't she beautiful?"

Xiao Liu rolled her eyes at Qin Yun, annoyed, and retorted, "Are you out of your mind? Are you short of women? Why don't you go after her!"

Qin Yun grinned mischievously, "I already have a girlfriend, and we're planning to get married at the end of the year. She... you can have her."

Xiao Liu gave Qin Yun a disdainful look, "Oh... I didn't realize you'd become so serious!"

"I'm always very serious, okay!"

"Prepare yourself mentally, because we won't be helping you when we're the best men."

"If you don't help me, why would I ask you to be my best men? Am I asking for trouble?"

Xiao Liu rolled her eyes at Qin Yun again, "Fine, I'll save the red envelope."

"It's enough that your red envelope arrives; it doesn't matter whether you come in person or not."

I despise you! I'm not talking to you anymore!

"Look at Master Zhi and his young mistress, how loving and happy they are! Little Six, learn from them, at least learn some of their essence."

"So, you've grasped the essence?"

"Nonsense! If I didn't have some substance, could I even get married?"

"You're good, you're amazing, I have nothing to say."

Qin Yun stared intently at Xiao Liu, his eyes gleaming with scrutiny. "You've been working with Cheng Ling for quite a while now. I don't believe you have no feelings about it at all."

Xiao Liu and Qin Yun exchanged glances. "Do I have to roll my eyes at you again? Do you know how much of a jerk she is? She went back to her hometown for the New Year and brought several boxes of cured meat and sausages. I can't even describe the smell."

If you don't know its value, you don't have to eat it.

"I gave it to the young mistress. Anyway, I don't cook. As her assistant, I eat boxed lunches every day, and I'm sick of it."

"She also gave me a gift box of preserved meats. My girlfriend took them out and steamed them in her rice. They were so delicious! You'd be missing out if you didn't eat them."

Xiao Liu looked at Qin Yun with disdain and sneered, "Forget it, I won't say anything more. I'm not on your side. You're starting to show signs of being a married man."

"Let's see how long you can keep gloating. Cheng Ling is definitely going to be a star, just you wait and see. This year, the young mistress has been heavily promoting her. At this year's press conference, she was the main model for the entire Dongyang Group. Soon, she should be dominating the catwalk."

"What does her being famous have to do with me? Ugh, I'm going to go to the bathroom, I'm not going to waste my breath on you."

Xiao Liu walked towards the outer area, and Qin Yun glanced at him.

"Just you wait and see. I want to see the day you get slapped in the face. After being with Master Zhi for so long, you're all pretty much the same! There's nothing shameful about admitting you like someone, so why hide it?!"

******

The product launch event concluded with enthusiastic applause.

Qiao Nuan has become accustomed to this situation and is handling it with increasing ease.

With everyone's approval, Qiao Nuan became more and more confident.

...

After the press conference, Qiao Nuan accepted an interview with the media.

Media: "March 1st is the match where 30 teams advance to the top 12. Are you confident?"

Qiao Nuan: "I am confident, and I have many ideas about the work now."

Media: "Some people are worried that the judging panel is biased towards you. What's your opinion?"

Qiao Nuan: "I believe in the judges' professional ethics, and I respect them very much. I also want to learn from them. Today, everyone's recognition of me is the best response."

Media: "Qiao Chu is the chair of the judging panel. Will she give you any feedback?"

Qiao Nuan: "If you want to ask about the competition, we really haven't had any communication about it. I believe my sister respects her profession, the competition, and every participating designer."

Regarding their work, every designer should have their own unique insights, rather than relying on others. We have a family rule: after work, we don't talk about work; we want to enjoy life.

Media: "What will be the main focus of this year's autumn/winter collections?"

Qiao Nuan: "Dina is a relatively young brand. I want to express the vitality of young people, with fashion and avant-garde coexisting. Therefore, its style is diverse and is now widely loved by young people."

Media: "Qiao Nuan, you're trending on social media. Most of the comments online are positive; young people really like your style."

Qiao Nuan smiled and said, "Thank you all very much for your support and love. I still need to improve and continue to work hard."

Media: "We wish you all the best in advancing to the Grand Prix, and hope to see you in the final race."

Qiao Nuan: "Okay, I'll do my best!"

...

When facing the media, Cheng Ling still feels stage fright and is a little uncomfortable.

On stage and off stage, they're practically two different people.

Holly accompanied her during the interview.

Faced with some pointed questions, Cheng Ling looked to Holly for help.

Holly usually guides her to respond, or responds for her.

To address this weakness, Xiao Liu took on an additional task: training Cheng Ling.

This was also a task assigned to him by the young mistress. He had to correct Cheng Ling's stage fright habit, teach her social etiquette, and how to deal with the media.

Only when Cheng Ling can handle the media independently can he be transferred back to his original job.

Recently, Rong Yan has indeed become more well-behaved.

On the surface, she no longer loses her temper and is much more polite to people.

With a bodyguard by her side, things were much easier.

Rong Yan's new product launch was also held, and she still has fans.

As fellow designers participating in the competition, it's inevitable that netizens will compare her to Qiao Nuan.

Despite some netizens' harsh comments, she neither argued back nor responded.

This is quite surprising about Miss Rong Er!

...

Mark's new product launch event was also held.

It came to a perfect end.

He has many fans, but Qiao Chu is still more popular.

Because of her identity as Daisy, Qiao Chu gained unprecedented popularity and extremely high attention.

Qiao Chu's strength completely overwhelmed Mark's.

...

Upon seeing the various data, Rong Sheng's expression became very serious.

His brow was furrowed tightly.

"That Qiao Chu is too amazing. It's like she was born with a protagonist's halo. Mark's press conference was held two days earlier than hers, and as soon as she started her press conference, Mark was instantly overwhelmed by her."

Rong Zhan also saw the latest data, which was far from ideal.

He also felt that there was nothing wrong with Mark's design and inspiration.

Qiao Chu's fans are practically bewitched; they all side with her and fawn over her.

Compared to sales in January and February, Rong's Group's sales have dropped significantly.

JOE's sales have reached number one in the industry.

It was even more glorious than when Kevin was the director!

Seeing this result is infuriating!

Rong Zhan: "Dad, what should we do? Those shareholders are definitely furious and demanding that Zhou Kaiyun come back to take charge."

Rong Sheng: "The hottest fashion magazine, the latest issue, you need to arrange for Mark to be on the cover."

Rong Zhan: "This will cost a lot of money."

Rong Sheng: "It's no longer a matter of money; we need to stabilize the situation."
