Next to Feng Yan were Zhao Jiening and Guo Wen.
Xue Qiandai remembered that Zhao Jiening once said that Feng Yan's freckles were a sign of personality, while Xue Qiandai's were... well, let's just say they were indescribable. Now it seems that she really knew this supermodel.
"Hi, we meet again." Xue Qiandai greeted her familiarly.
Guo Wen ignored Xue Qiandai, brushing past her shoulder without hiding her dislike. However, her invited guests, Zhao Jiening and Feng Yan, both showed friendliness towards Xue Qiandai. This made Guo Wen incredibly embarrassed.
"Ah, Miss Qiandai, what a coincidence! Let me formally introduce myself. This is my cousin, Feng Yan. Cousin, Miss Xue is a fan of yours and even wore the same freckled makeup as you."
Xue Qiandai sighed, "There's no need to talk about this embarrassing thing." Nevertheless, she extended her hand. "Hello, I'm from the Yan team. Thank you for redefining beauty."
"Yan's Team" is the nickname for Feng Yan's fans. They admire Feng Yan because of her personality. Xue Qiandai's evaluation of her is very high.
Feng Yan shook hands with Xue Qiandai from her elevated position, saying, "It's a pleasure to meet you. You have an international face. If you want to conquer the modeling world, I think you'll shine brightly."
"Thank you. I hope to walk the runway alongside you someday," Xue Qiandai casually complimented. After all, they were rivals today, which was tantamount to being on the same runway.
Both groups entered the art center together. Only Guo Wen was fuming.
Rong Xiao privately nudged Xue Qiandai, giving her a thumbs up, "You're amazing, Consort Dai! You don't lose in front of supermodels at all, you really make me proud. Look at Guo Wen, she's so angry she's about to die on the spot, hahaha."
The best is yet to come. Xue Qiandai quietly asked Rong Xiao, "Which number are you going to appear? I have to leave after my performance; I have important business to attend to." She hoped she could make it in time to celebrate Huo Meiren's success.
Rong Xiao immediately retorted, like a peacock about to spread its tail feathers, "At such an important moment, you, as my top model, are leaving early? Do you even love me anymore?"
With a strong survival instinct, Xue Qiandai quickly tried to appease him, "I came here for you, but I was just too busy. Besides, what difference does it make whether I'm here or not after the show is over?"
Rong Xiao rolled his eyes and pouted, "I'm sorry to disappoint you, but since you dropped out of school, I'll be number one in the class, and my work will be the grand finale."
Wouldn't that mean we have to wait until the very end? There won't be time for Huo Meiren's press conference.
Xue Qiandai sniffled, feeling heartbroken and wanting to cry.
Jian Yan noticed Xue Qiandai's dejected look and grabbed her wrist.
In fact, Xue Qiandai and her group didn't go backstage, but stayed in the seats near the front of the runway. Since they arrived so late, there was no need to wait backstage. Feng Yan and her group, on the other hand, went directly backstage; apparently, the academy had moved Guo Wen's show forward to accommodate Feng Yan's schedule.
At the art center, almost everyone had arrived, and the doors slowly closed. In the first row sat foreign teachers from ESMOD headquarters, editors-in-chief of fashion magazines, and designers from major luxury brands. The audience was filled with trendy men and women. They sat discreetly on either side of the runway, chatting quietly in small groups.
The spotlights came on, and a beautiful female host appeared on the stage.
"Ladies and Gentlemen, welcome to the ESMOD Second Year Semester Closing Show. Fashion is the armor you wear, and lingerie is the sexiest armor. Today, wearing lingerie as outerwear has become a fashion trend. So how will our students interpret fashion with lingerie today? Today's lingerie show will reveal all."
Accompanied by powerful, fast-paced music, the first designer and her model representative walked onto the stage. At the same time, a large projection screen displayed the designer's name and the lingerie's design.
The designers first shared their design concepts and inspirations, followed by a model show.
It must be said that as one of the world's most outstanding fashion design schools, ESMOD students are exceptionally talented. Their lingerie designs are also remarkable.
But Xue Qiandai had no interest in appreciating it; she only hoped it would end soon so she could fly back to her beauty.
The second person to appear was Guo Wen, whose arrival was met with enthusiastic cheers and applause from the audience.
Guo Wen's theme was "The Call of the Wild," which combined it with the currently popular organic and healthy trend. The lingerie was made from a special leaf from the Southern Hemisphere, which, after processing, has a fine and resilient texture. The green leaf bra, paired with a green grass skirt and a green leaf wreath, gave the model a natural freshness and vitality.
With the addition of the naturally beautiful Feng Yan, the performance garnered continuous cheers from the audience.
"How are you feeling?" Xue Qiandai asked Jian Yan beside her.
"The theme of organic and green aligns with current consumer trends. The use of green tones, unlike the previous sexy lingerie, injects a fresh and vibrant feel. It should target a younger demographic with high acceptance and their own opinions," Jian Yan said confidently. "Overall, it certainly lives up to her sister's reputation."
Upon hearing this, Rong Xiao couldn't help but glance at her. This little girl has a very discerning eye. No wonder she can become good friends with Consort Dai. "Jane, from today onwards, you are also my best friend."
Jian Yan was taken aback, then smiled and said, "I am truly flattered."
The long shows went on and on. It was almost three o'clock.
Xue Qiandai handed the phone directly to Jian Yan, fearing she might prioritize romance over friendship and abandon Rong Xiao. But in reality, her phone behaved perfectly, remaining completely silent. Instead, Jian Yan's phone received a message.
The sender is Qin Shu.
"What is Junior Sister Dai Dai busy with? If she doesn't show up soon, her Huo Meiren will be furious."
