During a break…
Shen Fanxing was resting in a corner with a cup of water when Shen Qianrou appeared beside her.
“Congratulations, you’ve been shortlisted.”
Shen Fanxing glanced at her briefly before closing the cap. “I didn’t expect you to be shortlisted!”
These words were especially piercing to Shen Qianrou’s ears. She was obviously despising her ability.
However, there were so many people present, so she didn’t want to lose her temper. After some thought, she smiled and said, “I’m looking forward to the second round. Shen Fanxing. Don’t you dare fail to even make it to the scent-making competition!”
Shen Fanxing smirked and said, “Worry about yourself.”
Just then, there was a commotion at the door.
“It’s Young Master Su!”
After a low shout, Su Heng strode in calmly in a suit with his assistant behind him.
Shen Qianrou beamed and hurried towards Su Heng. “Brother Heng, why are you here?”
Su Heng smiled at her and wrapped his arm around her waist. He said gently, “I was busy this morning, but I rushed here when I heard that you passed the first round. Congrats, Qianrou.”
Shen Qianrou shook her head and said, “It’s only the pre-selection. I’ve worked so hard for so long and I didn’t do that only to make it past the first round. Brother Heng, trust me, I’ll definitely stand on the international stage this time. For you, I have to work even harder.”
Su Heng smiled warmly at her. The two of them were openly affectionate and it made everyone envious.
Shen Fanxing sat in a corner and sent them a nonchalant glance. Her face was devoid of any emotions.
But there would always be someone who wouldn’t want her to stay that way.
“Look at Young Master Su, he’s so gentle and thoughtful. He made time to come and support his girlfriend!”
“Look at the two of them. They’re a perfect match for each other. I’m so envious of them. If I had such a handsome boyfriend, I wouldn’t get tired of him looking at his face for a lifetime!”
“I can only say that Shen Qianrou is too lucky. Back then, Young Master Su was willing to be with her despite being labeled as a jerk. This shows how much he loves Shen Qianrou.”
“Yes, although it’s indeed a terrible thing both of them have done… But love is innocent!”
“Look at the sister…”
The few of them chatted as they shifted their attention to Shen Fanxing.
At that moment, Shen Fanxing was sitting alone in a corner. She was dressed elegantly and she held a bottle of water in her hand.
Normally, she would look normal, but in the eyes of everyone, she looked pitiful right now.
“Sigh… I do pity her a little.”
At this moment, Su Heng’s vision swept past the crowd to look at her.
Seeing this, Shen Qianrou’s eyes darkened and she smiled.
“Oh yeah, Brother Heng, are you busy later? Do you want to stay and watch the second round?”
Su Heng nodded and said, “Since I’m here, I’ll leave after watching the competition.”
“Okay!” Shen Qianrou smiled sweetly.
The second round of the competition began soon after.
The atmosphere of the competition was obviously more solemn and stricter than the first round.
In this round, there were a few who left halfway. Previously, they had only prepared a plan. In such a short period of time, they couldn’t think of a better solution.
In the midst of the competition, Shen Qianrou had finished preparing her creation.
Seeing how confident she was, Su Heng relaxed a little.
