Chapter 135 The Competition
Li Chenghui frowned when he heard Wu Yuqing's words and asked curiously, "What? Her husband is a delivery man? But how would a delivery man know Lin Yueyu?"
Wu Yuqing laughed heartily and said coldly, "It's all thanks to that loser's rotten luck. I've already found out. He accidentally helped Lin Yueyu while delivering food, and Lin Yueyu is a very grateful person."
"When Chen Yang and Liu Ran, that pair of low-class peasants, were getting their marriage license, Lin Yueyu personally sent them her blessings."
"I didn't expect Lin Yueyu to show up again this time. I really can't figure it out. It was just a chance encounter where he helped her on the road, and I didn't expect Lin Yueyu to be so sentimental."
Li Chenghui was relieved after hearing this. He chuckled and said, "So he married a delivery man. I have to say, that delivery boy has quite good fortune."
"A delivery man marrying a woman as beautiful as a celestial being. But I guess his good days won't last long. After all, with his status and position, it's impossible for him to protect such a beautiful wife."
"I think it won't be long before he's wearing one green hat after another."
Wu Yuqing and Li Chenghui burst into laughter as they spoke.
Just then, Li Chenghui's computer beeped.
He got up to check his computer and found an email containing design drafts.
Opening his mailbox, he saw over twenty design drafts, all submissions for the current competition.
Li Chenghui smiled and said, "You guessed right. Liu Ran is indeed participating in the redesign competition for Qingzhou University's centennial emblem. Let's see how her work is."
As Li Chenghui spoke, he clicked on the email Liu Ran had just sent. He opened the attachment, which revealed an exquisite and meaningful emblem design.
Upon seeing the emblem, Li Chenghui's expression turned to one of stunned silence. He stared intently at the seemingly simple yet profoundly meaningful new emblem.
The circle at the top symbolized both the heavens and the shape of a person, standing tall and upright. Beneath the person was Qingzhou University's unique insignia. While the entire emblem appeared minimalist, a closer look revealed the solemnity and responsibility of the university campus.
After a single glance, Li Chenghui took a deep breath, extinguished his cigarette, and exclaimed, "I have to admit, Liu Ran is truly talented! If she hadn't offended you back then, she would have already made a name for herself in the design world!"
Hearing this, Wu Yuqing's face contorted with jealousy. She scoffed, "Bah! What's the use of her talent?"
"She comes from humble beginnings, destined to be a lowly peasant woman. Yet, she refused to be my follower and always tried to steal my spotlight. Her background dictates that she's only fit to be a laborer her entire life, but she always thought she was a princess. If I don't destroy her, should I let her live to offend my eyes?"
Wu Yuqing said angrily, her eyes also darting towards the design. After a single glance, she frowned. She huffed, "I have to admit, this woman is a genius. I really can't compare to her design. I had already hired ten people to privately design the emblem for Qingzhou University's centennial, and after more than a week, I thought their designs were perfect. But compared to Liu Ran's, they are trash."
"It seems there's no other way. I'll have to plagiarize this design. Tomorrow, I'll need you to completely crush her into the mud."
Li Chenghui laughed heartily and nodded, "No problem. After all, we made her take the blame once four years ago, wronged her once. This time, it's just a repeat of the same old play."
"There are still a few hours until dawn. Why don't we do it again?"
Li Chenghui chuckled and embraced Wu Yuqing, and they once again tumbled together.
Li Chenghui felt immensely proud. This beautiful woman before him was already the girlfriend of the eldest young master of the Bai family, and would even become the young mistress of the Bai family in the future.
And who was the Bai family? They were the most powerful family in the entire Jiang Province. The young mistress of the number one family had become his plaything.
"Hahahaha," Li Chenghui thought, feeling even more energized.
The next morning at 10:00 AM.
Many alumni had already left Qingzhou University. Although there was a major event upcoming, the competition for the redesign of Qingzhou University's centennial emblem, most people were not design majors and were only curious about the results, not participating.
Therefore, many had departed, while the remaining attendees were all from related design fields, gathered in the Qingzhou University auditorium.
At this moment.
On the stage at the front of the Qingzhou University auditorium, three renowned design experts sat at the judges' table. In front of them was a large screen where the submitted competition entries would be displayed.
Li Chenghui occupied the middle seat at the judges' table. Not only did he have the decision-making power as the principal, but he also had a background in design and a unique eye for creative work.
Surrounding the stage were countless students. In the front row, Liu Ran felt extremely anxious.
She clenched her fists. Although she was confident in her work, whether she could win first place depended on the judges' vision.
At this moment, the projection screen on the stage lit up with the first design entry.
This was the design for the Qingzhou University emblem submitted by a student from the Class of 2010's Design Academy. It had to be said that the design was very perfect, much better than the current Qingzhou University emblem, and it was more solemn and ancient, highlighting the theme of the centennial celebration.
As this emblem was displayed, the students below nodded in approval.
Gao Juan, sitting next to Liu Ran, exclaimed in surprise upon seeing the work. She then worriedly asked Liu Ran, "Oh my! Liu Ran, I didn't expect these competition entries to be so formidable! This senior's design is completely beyond my expectations, far superior to my own level. I originally thought you could easily win first place."
"But now it seems there will be some difficulty for you! Can your work win first place? Is it better than this one?"
Liu Ran gave a slight, wry smile upon hearing this. She confidently nodded and said, "It's much better than this work. But whether it can win first place, that's hard to say."
Gao Juan immediately gave a thumbs-up and said, "That's amazing! So your work is much better than this competition entry! Then I'm relieved. Come on, let's all applaud Liu Ran."
The surrounding design students chuckled.
