Chapter 353 It’s Over, Now You Can Do What You Want
After Xu Yi finished speaking, she didn't wait for anyone else's reaction and left, lifting her skirt.
Her legs are on her body, so if she wants to walk, no one can stop her easily.
"Miss Xu..."
Owen wanted to chase him, but Zhou Mingchen put down his coffee and said, "Forget it, Owen."
Walking to the door and looking at the carpeted corridor, Xu Yi walked slowly in the opposite direction and returned the same way, like a princess lost in the palace.
Zhou Mingchen's eyes deepened, "She is more interesting than I thought."
I thought that after meeting and chatting for a few minutes, the novelty would wear off.
Zhou Mingchen is a person who likes to pursue novelty. Once he is interested in something and his novelty is satisfied, this good impression will disappear. Zhou Mingchen thought it would be the same this time.
But to his surprise, this time was different…his sense of novelty was not satisfied, but intensified.
Xu Yi returned to the backstage and sat down. Lin Rachel asked in a low voice, "What did the organizer want you to do just now?"
"A few words."
Lin Rachel had no doubt at all. It only took her a few minutes, or a few words, to get there.
"Hey, I don't know when this competition will end. Now only a few of us have submitted our manuscripts."
In the preliminary round of the Muse competition, the situation on stage went from bad to worse.
The players quarreled and fought with each other, and the staff went on stage to mediate, which almost became the norm in the later part of the game.
The people backstage were watching the excitement on the stage. Judy happened to see a designer who got very angry after being plagiarized and started fighting with several people on the other side.
"I wouldn't forgive him either."
"The rules of the game can be like this."
"That's not OK."
Judy took a bite of the apple and said, "This is why I submitted the manuscript early."
Xu Yi said, "If it's truly yours, no one else can steal it or rob it."
Judy didn't look at Xu Yi and couldn't get along well with Xu Yi.
Song Yanming was sitting somewhere in the audience and saw Xu Yi being taken away from the backstage lounge at a certain connection backstage.
He stared very intently and his eyes were no longer on the stage. After a few minutes, he saw Xu Yi coming back alone, and then he calmed down.
As time passed, more and more people submitted their manuscripts. There were about ten people in the first batch, including Zhou Minglan.
"Sister...how can you still sleep?"
Zhou Zhiyin opened her eyes, "You submitted your manuscript, Minglan..."
"If you don't hand in your manuscript, we're going to fight. I didn't expect this competition to be so chaotic. The dream...it was so chaotic that it felt like it was really a dream."
It was already dark outside, but the competition was still going on. The contestants felt unprecedented pressure, and their hearts began to beat fast.
Everyone was more resentful than the devil, and some even fought with each other backstage after handing in their manuscripts and leaving the stage.
Xu Yi was sleeping soundly when she was suddenly awakened by a slap, which scared her so much that she shook.
It was really an excess of freedom. Fights broke out regardless of the occasion. Women fought with each other, pulling skirts, pulling hair, slapping each other, swearing at each other, and showing off their skills.
Although I couldn't understand what they were saying, I could tell from the way they grimaced that they were cursing very dirty.
This made the staff of the Muse Competition very busy. Perhaps the staff did not expect that in such an international competition, fighting would become the norm and inevitable.
Taking advantage of the chaos, Zhou Minglan was eager to try.
Zhou Zhiyin pulled Zhou Minglan, "Minglan, no."
"She stepped on my foot just now on the stage, but I didn't argue with her for the sake of the overall situation."
"Since you have been generous once, stick to it and be generous again."
"No, I can't keep giving in."
Zhou Minglan let go of Zhou Zhiyin's hand and walked towards Xu Yi.
Xu Yi also sensed Zhou Minglan's ill intentions. It was impossible to rely on Lin Rachel at this time. Lin Rachel was timid and afraid of things. She could be a partner during the competition, but in big things...
Xu Yi couldn't afford to offend but could avoid him. When Zhou Minglan pushed aside a group of contestants to find her, she stood up and went straight to the bathroom.
"Please make way, please make way..."
Zhou Minglan was stunned for a moment, "Where are the people?"
Lin Rachel was chatting happily with Judy and didn't notice when Xu Yi left. "He was here just now. I'm not sure."
Zhou Minglan glanced at the bathroom next to her and went straight in. She turned on the faucet and said loudly, "Don't think I can't do anything to you just because you hide in there."
"In Jiangcheng, you bullied me and rode on my head. I wanted to forgive you and be a magnanimous person, but you deliberately stepped on my foot on the stage. I will never forgive you."
"Today is just the primary election, there is still a long time to go, you can't escape the fifteenth day if you can't escape the first day."
Xu Yi thought, I can hide for a day, I can't just go over to her and die knowing that she is here to cause trouble...
Even if she wanted to die, she had to do it in a crowded place, preferably in front of the Muse Contest staff...
"Minglan!"
Zhou Zhiyin was afraid that Zhou Minglan would do something out of line, so she chased after him, "Minglan, Brother Mingchen wants to talk to you about something."
"My brother is looking for me?"
Zhou Minglan stared at Zhou Zhiyin, "What did you say to him?"
"Nothing, just tell the truth."
Zhou Minglan stamped her feet in anger, "Why are you always like this? How have I ever let you down?"
"Minglan, this is not the place for you to mess around."
"Let go, you're so annoying. I hate your shy personality. You don't want to offend me or her. You're my sister, how can you do this to me!"
Zhou Minglan was so angry that she shook off Zhou Zhiyin's hand, wiped her tears and left.
Zhou Zhiyin sighed and lowered her head slightly, "Xu Yi, come out. I'll watch her. She'll be fine."
Xu Yi opened one of the doors, "Thank you."
I am really not familiar with foreign countries and there is no one around me who can handle the situation. Subconsciously, I want to avoid it. Sometimes hiding can bring peace of mind.
Zhou Minglan, wearing a black dress, stepped angrily on the wool carpet, approaching Zhou Mingchen's office step by step.
She has made a big promise that she will never let Xu Yi have an easy time in the Muse competition.
Her own brother was one of the investors, but he didn't help her and instead joined Zhou Zhiyin in disrupting her plans. If she failed to make Xu Yi fall flat on her face this time, where would she put her face?
It’s hateful, really hateful.
Zhou Minglan reached the door and was about to kick it open. After thinking for a moment, he hesitated and said, "Brother, you asked for me. I'm here. What can I do for you?"
Owen opened the door, "Miss Minglan~"
Zhou Minglan rushed in, "Brother, please speak up. If there is nothing else, I will go backstage to rest. This is the lounge for the investors, and I am not qualified to rest here."
"sit."
Zhou Minglan sat down and crossed his legs, looking very domineering.
"Sit down."
Zhou Minglan was full of resentment. She adjusted her sitting position and stopped looking at him.
"She called you to complain again, didn't she?"
"The game isn't over yet, you can't do anything reckless."
"Does that mean I can do whatever I want after this is over?"
