Sweet Military Marriage: Mr. Jing, Please Spare Me!

"Hua, don't think that way. Think about it, if your own work could get such a close score to his new work, then what do you think about his past work? You would definitely be able to win him! Don't worry! You can do it!"

Ning Hua felt a little comforted by Wen Ting Ting's actions because, amidst all the mess and everything that they were going through, the only one that had been there for him throughout was her.

However, Ning Hua got furious again when he heard what Wen Ting Ting said as he felt as though she was insulting him that he had to depend on using Lu Jin Sheng's work to win.

"Hmph! That means I am still incapable compared to him! I can only use his past work to be able to win against him, and my own work cannot even compare to him! My own work will only result in me losing against him!"

Wen Ting Ting almost rolled her eyes, and her inner voice sounded.

If you were that capable, you wouldn't have to steal from Jin Sheng and use his work all this while and in the finals.

If you were that capable, you wouldn't have lost to Jin Sheng in the previous few rounds.

You don't even know how capable Jin Sheng is now.

"Look. Jin Sheng was able to win against you in the past few rounds because he had new ideas since it is the first time he entered a competition. However, the reporters had been bringing up our past over the past few days, and you could see that he is getting more and more affected by it. Perhaps he wouldn't even be able to design properly, or he would not be able to speak properly later. Our past still haunts him, and he would not be able to get over it so easily. It is not only the designs that are important but also the designers' confidence and their explanations that affects the work. You will win him."

"That still means that I have to resort to unscrupulous methods, and Lu Jin Sheng needs to make a mistake before I could even win him! In the eyes of the public, I would still be considered as useless and have lost to Lu Jin Sheng in the previous few rounds."

"That's not true. People could be thinking that you were letting the newbie shine since you have already been in the industry for so long. Then, when you win in the finals, people would only say that you are showing your true talent."

"What if people think that I am being arrogant and tried to put down a newbie in the finals? Or, what if people think that I was so useless, but I still pretended to let the newbie shine? Or, what if people actually guessed that I took other people's work because the designs that I had been using had very different concepts from usual and from one another?"

Ning Hua's mind was filled with the thought of wanting to win and having lost to Lu Jin Sheng. That was why he couldn't even think properly, and could only think of winning and losing. However, that was also what Wen Ting Ting was trying to do as she wanted to make him agitated.

"No. Hua, to me, you are the best designer in the world. In my heart, you are the most important person and also the best designer. No one can replace you in my heart or mind. You are irreplaceable, and you are the best!"

Wen Ting Ting almost wanted to roll her eyes and goosebumps were about to show up on her body, but she managed to keep them all under control. However, she almost bit on her tongue accidentally because that was the first time she had to lie about so many things in a few sentences.

On the other hand, Ning Hua became angrier and lost his sanity because of Wen Ting Ting's words.

"I don't need to be the best designer for you! Who are you to me?! I need to be the best designer in the world!"

Ning Hua slapped Wen Ting Ting out of anger by accident. He had wanted to push her, but it ended up as a slap on her face.

Wen Ting Ting fell to the floor due to the unexpected slap, and her lips started to bleed because of the force of the slap.

Everyone in the room was shocked by Ning Hua's sudden action, and when Wen Ting Ting fell to the floor, everyone went to help her up immediately. However, no one dared to speak because they were afraid that they would be scolded.

Wen Ting Ting felt a burning pain on her face, and she tasted blood in her mouth.

Wen Ting Ting held onto her face as she tried to soothe the pain with the coldness of her hand, but it didn't work.

Ning Hua looked at Wen Ting Ting, and when the anger faded away, he suddenly realized what he had done.

Ning Hua rushed to Wen Ting Ting and bent down to look at her.

"Ting Ting… Ting Ting, I'm sorry… I was too angry just now, and I didn't know what I was doing. I'm sorry… I shouldn't have said that. Please forgive me. I was just too angry just now. I didn't mean to say those hurtful words. I didn't mean to slap you as well... I was just so angry and troubled, and I just wanted a moment of peace. However, I ended up slapping you by accident..."
