She's Hard to Get

"Of course, works that were personally designed and completed by, the director of Sky Ox Design, could not be bought with money outside."

This bracelet was not custom-made by Han Yuqi, but was specially made by Xiao Ningyuan for him, in the hope that the Milan could become the second starting point for her career.

"But the cost is paid by me, so it's a gift from the two of us."

Han Yuqi laughed and said that he was borrowing the flowers to offer to the Buddha. He had initially wanted to choose a gift for Ning Caier, but the company was too busy, and until they set out on their journey, they did not have the time to choose a present.

"I really like it. Help me thank the Teacher Xiao and you too."

When Ning Caier saw this bracelet, she really wanted to wear it. Even if Han Yuqi had only paid for it, it was already very good that he had the intention to gift her a present. If there wasn't anyone else here, she would have definitely taken this opportunity to confess to him.

Ning Caier played with the bracelet for a long time but she was unable to tie it. Han Yuqi walked in front of her and helped her put it back on, the warmth from his finger instantly permeating into Ning Caier's skin and causing her face to turn red. This seemed to be an extremely mysterious power that caused every cell in Ning Caier's body to smile.

Actually, he came here this time to scout for information. She wanted to see how charming Ning Caier's boyfriend was, but seeing how the two of them were now, he knew that Ouyang Jue was lying to him. How could such a polite greeting and action be considered to be a lover, at most, it was just that Ning Caier was secretly in love with the other party.

Ouyang Jue was very outstanding, but he was not a free man right now, in this kind of situation, he seemed to be the only one left.

"Cai'er, why did you come to the company? Tomorrow is the competition, why aren't you going back to pack up?"

Ouyang Jue ran up as he sweated profusely. The scene in the room let him know that he was still a step too late, so he hurriedly found a reason to separate the two of them. At the same time, he glared at Mike with slight anger and specially called to remind him.

"This is Miss Ning's boyfriend?"

Mike purposely brought up this matter in front of everyone. His voice was a little loud, causing everyone to focus their attention on him. Today he was wearing a cotton vest, denim shorts, and a pair of leather slippers.

If this kind of costume was in the country, people would definitely not think of him as a designer. But Han Yuqi had read about him before, and knew his unique habits, so he generously extended his hand to introduce himself to Mike.

"Hello, Mr. Mike. I'm Tian Ao's Vice President, Han Yuqi. I'm also Cai'er's good friend, but I'm not her boyfriend."

Han Yuqi didn't want to hear any intimate rumors, especially not to spread them to his female subordinates. Last time, because of the affair between Cai'er and Ouyang Jue, they didn't even manage to build a good relationship, so he was in a hurry to explain it. The purpose was to protect her and prevent her from getting caught up in this kind of thing a second time.

However, the expressions of the few people present were all strange, Ning Caier's face had a hint of disappointment, she felt that Han Yuqi had sensed something and intentionally cut off their relationship, but Ouyang Jue's face was extremely awkward, and her head was turned towards the door after having her lies exposed.

But the most exaggerated thing was still Mike. He didn't shake hands with Han Yuqi, but instead used his small and skinny body to give him a big bear hug. "Mr. Han, I really like you.

He had always heard that this designer called Mike didn't want to interact with others, but the situation now was completely the opposite. However, Ouyang Jue had already dragged Mike out of the door, preventing him from speaking any more nonsense, and he didn't want to lose face in front of his subordinates.

"Vice President of the Republic of Korea, go back to the hotel and rest first. We'll do the rest tomorrow. Cai'er, it's time for us to leave as well. You can't lose tomorrow's match. "

Only then did he relax. He heavily shut the door of the car, telling him to obediently go home, not to come to his office again, and not to talk to Han Yuqi again.

When Mike saw Ouyang Jue's nervous look, he almost laughed and leaned on the steering wheel. Everything had already been exposed, he didn't know what Ouyang Jue was still worried about, "Ouyang, it seems like I'm the only competitor left now."

Ning Caier didn't know what Ouyang Jue and Mike were talking about, she was completely focused on the bracelet. This was actually a blessing from Han Yuqi, causing her to be unable to sleep for the entire night. She secretly made a decision in her heart. If she could enter the top three, she would confess to Han Yuqi at the final great show.

This decision caused Ning Caier to blush, and she thought about how she had to say her feelings for Han Yuqi in front of so many people. She couldn't help but cover her head with her blanket, hiding inside while crying and laughing.

On the second day when they went to the competition venue, Ning Caier's panda eye was very serious, even the makeup artist couldn't cover it up with double the concealment cream. She could only use a pair of glasses with black frames to block it for her.

Although it was only a preliminary competition, the designer had to display their own characteristics in order to make it easier for others to remember them. Therefore, he personally matched Ning Caier's style, changing her black-framed glasses into a large frame with a pink leopard print. At the same time, he also put on an exaggerated bow hairstyle.

This outfit was a bit strange, it made Ning Caier want to take off that exaggerated hair ornament a few times, but Mike didn't seem to end up changing it. He actually ripped off two of the sleeves on her shirt and used the sewing machine at the scene to redesign her.

The modified Ning Caier gave off the feeling that she was a maverick, especially the willow boots that reached to her knees, which made her feel a little rebellious. This was indeed Mike's design, but it was not her design, so she kept trying to adjust herself to the mirror.

But what Mike did was even more unexpected for Ning Caier. He actually took off the bracelet that Han Yuqi gave her and put it on his wrist.

"The recording will be very chaotic, so don't wear anything valuable. Leave this bracelet with me first, if you can last until the top three, I will return it to you. Remember, without the top three, the bracelet will belong to me."

Mike used an extremely overbearing method to make a promise with Ning Caier. This was an agreement that Ning Caier would obviously not agree to, but looking at the hundred people working behind the scenes and thinking about the chaotic environment they were living in, she still followed Mike's suggestion. This bracelet was extremely important to her, if lost, she would never be able to find it again.

"Very well, you must remember that this is just a television program. You just need to perform according to your usual abilities and don't need to worry about the cameras around you."

Mike also helped Ning Caier inspect her clothes, afraid that she would forget to bring her battle armor in her excitement last night, and that he had spent a lot of effort to get this chance to enter dressing room. After entering the real recording area, even he, the sponsor, would have to leave, and she would have to depend on herself.

Hence, Mike kept on warning Ning Caier about the rules and rules of the tournament. He had already packed everything into her luggage, and had also made the arrangements for the clothes and accessories she would be wearing during the competitions. It was just that he was worried that Ning Caier would not follow his orders, so he warned her repeatedly that other than design and using it as she pleased, she could not do anything else that she pleased.

"Don't worry, Master, I won't lose face for you." Ning Caier patted Mike's shoulder to reassure him. Although she hadn't slept for the whole night, her current mental state was extremely good, and she was in her best condition to prepare for battle.

The program director started to call for everyone to gather. Other than the contestants who were participating in the competition, no one else was allowed to enter the competition, and after the conclusion of the preliminaries was announced, those who were eliminated immediately. As for the contestants who were chosen, they directly stayed in the hotel and began the uninterrupted recording of the program for 24 hours.

Ning Caier confidently followed behind, but noticed that the other designers were not very friendly, they were all from all over Italy, their skin color and race were all different, but the only similarity was that they were all new to the market. Some of them were designers who had worked in third tier brands for many years, while some were designers who had opened their own small shops.

But Ning Caier not only had the previous champion as her recommendation, he also participated in many of the upper class society's gatherings. It was obviously unfair for him to be competing with them now.

However, these people did not speak English but Italian, so they did not affect Ning Caier who did not understand much. She hung the clothes she was most satisfied with on the shelf according to the program rules, and prepared a set of explanation to explain her design philosophy.

This time, the set of clothes that Ning Caier prepared was completely different from the charity series. Most of them were elegant chiffon s, who used the cloth's body to display their slender figures.

He knew that Ning Caier's sewing skills were incomparable to those of the tailors who had been sewing for many years, so the extremely complicated sewing techniques were not suitable for her. Hence, using the texture and characteristics of the fabric to make clothes was relatively easy for her.

"Your design this time seems very different from before, why didn't you use the same idea as last time? We all felt that those clothes were very beautiful and had our own stories."

KC was not the main judge this time, but was only a guest judge. His question was more incisive than everyone else, making them feel that not only did he not think about Mike's favor, but he had also made things difficult for Ning Caier just to get rid of their relationship.

Hence, KC hoped to create some topic for Ning Caier to talk about. This way, she would be able to prevent herself from being cut off and let more people see it.

"Because I don't want to always design a type of dress. I want to stand up for women, but I prefer to show the beauty of their lives."

Ning Caier used her fluent English to introduce to everyone the set of clothing that she designed for vacation. There were also two sets of clothing that had the style of a military uniform, these designs could reflect a woman's hard side, giving people a gentle and firm image.

Most of the judges acknowledged her, but there were also those who doubted Ning Caier's sewing skills. As someone who had been in the fashion industry for many years, they could tell that she did not have any complicated sewing skills.
