Ye Ying Ning had fantasized more than once: maybe Pandora's box was originally a jewelry box, so no woman could resist the temptation from it. Because, from the aristocratic ladies to the mortal village women, women's deep thirst for jewelry always comes from the deepest part of their hearts.

There is a fatal attraction in the sparkling gemstones, which are full of mysteries in past and present lives, and these are discovered and displayed by jewelry designers, giving them the fate of turning into butterflies.

At 3 o'clock in the afternoon, although there are still a few hours before the official start time of the semi-finals of the "Lola-Charm Zhonghai International Jewelry Design Competition", the venue of tonight's competition, the cutting-edge private club of Tianpet Group, Zhonghai Club, is already lively.

China Shipping Club is currently the youngest high-end private club in the entire China Maritime Circle, and its business hours have only been less than two years. The most distinctive and most amazing thing for guests is the 360-degree view of the floor-to-ceiling windows on the 50th floor of the Fortune Tower, which allows people to enjoy the view of the city from the moment they step through the door.

It is said that this came from the inspiration of Pet Tiange, who persuaded a number of group directors who had held opposing opinions to spend huge sums of money to build, even the walls of the restaurant are made of gold leaf, and the decoration cost of each private room is as high as 10 million yuan, and finally in the shortest possible time, the Zhonghai Club has become a well-known place in China.

The membership system is open only to internal members, including successful businessmen, well-known entertainers, and many domestic and foreign dignitaries, and today is the only time that the China Shipping Club has made an exception to allow non-members who have received invitations to come here.

Therefore, this time, the jewelry design competition showed a momentum of hard to find, and countless dignitaries, fashion trendsetters, and celebrities were eager to get the qualifications.

As one of the contestants, Ye Ying Ning had to fully consider her own image, although she didn't have to look as delicate as a model, but she also needed to show a modest and feminine femininity. In the end, she chose a gypsy style for herself, with a cape-like top with a slit to the shoulders and a long skirt with an irregular hem, which was both casual and sharp, and a bit of an artist's maverick taste.

It is said that Rebecca Lola was a great admirer of bohemian style in her youth, and her early works were full of themes of flow and freedom. Therefore, Ye Ying Ning can also be regarded as her favorite, hoping that through such a dress, she can arouse her good impression of herself and get enough impression points.

Tonight's competition is divided into three parts, namely the review of the audition works, the display of the works and the contestants' self-reports, of which the second part of the work display is the top priority tonight.

According to the competition process, the contestants will present their works to the judges and the audience by pre-planning the stage performance. In fact, this is also Rebecca's ingenious idea, adjusting static to dynamic, coupled with sound and light and other means, to sublimate the fierce competition into a flowing jewelry feast.

"Night Director, the key is here, and fifteen minutes before the show, a staff member will lead us to the safe to take out the entries. ”

Stephy deposited a set of "100 Years of Love" and handed the key to Night Baby, while helping Beatrice confirm the future of the stage play.

It was evident that Beatrice was also nervous.

After all, she is a model, not an actress, although she has a good figure and image, her acting skills are still shallow, and she is inevitably uneasy.

Fortunately, this is a mime, without a single line, she and the male model who played with her only need to rely on facial expressions and movements to promote the development of the storyline, staging a love story that has been entangled for nearly a century.

The script was written by Ye Yingning herself, and it has been deleted several times, although the hero and heroine in it have no dialogue, but it has cost her a lot of effort.

"Don't be too nervous, just bring yourself into the whole story. In fact, most of the attention of the judges and the audience is still on the jewelry itself, as long as you play normally, it will be fine. ”

Night Infant Ning softly comforted Beatrice, of course, in fact, she was also comforting herself.

The trembling hands revealed her true emotions at this moment.

At this moment, there are still three hours before the official competition, and the venue of the main arena has already been properly arranged, and it is the largest banquet hall of the Zhonghai Club.

Next door to the Yanbo Zhishuang Pavilion, the small banquet hall is full of people at the moment, full of laughter, and it will not make people feel the tense atmosphere before the start of the competition.

Once again, after making sure that there was nothing wrong, Ye Ying Ning also decided to go to the small banquet hall alone for a drink, so as to calm himself down, and he definitely couldn't mess around.

As soon as she walked into the small banquet hall, she saw countless shadows of fragrant clothes and sideburns from a distance, during which the waiters in white clothes and black pants were agile, shuttling through the crowd with trays in their hands.

In addition, the club offers an unlimited selection of ice-cold cocktail platters, including fresh blood oranges, honeydew melons, pineapples and wine-stained cherries in transparent glazed fruit plates, which are served to guests chilled by a number of bartenders.

Unexpectedly, she could see such a professional Japanese-style omakase in Zhonghai, and Ye Ying Ning suddenly felt full of interest, walked to the bartender's counter, and asked the other party to make a martini with cranberries and passion fruit for herself.

She was watching the bartender's skillful movements expectantly, and she didn't want to, when suddenly there was a slight commotion behind her.

Night Baby Ning followed the prestige, and a familiar tall figure was slowly walking at the door of the small banquet hall, she squinted, and recognized at a glance that he was wearing the hand-sewn Brioni custom suit that Victoria had sent him yesterday afternoon, or she had helped him hang it in the closet herself.

Pet Tiange smiled lightly, and greeted the guests present one by one, Ye Ying Ning only lost his mind for a moment, and then looked up and found that he had walked in front of him.

With a snap of his fingers, Pet Tiange asked the bartender for a glass of wine, with a nice name, called "Huanxi".

Standing beside him, Ye Ying Ning couldn't help but feel a little stiff, for fear of being seen by the people around him, there was actually a wisp of personal affection between the two.

Just now, her wine was ready, and she took a sip, the slight spiciness spread in her mouth, and Ye Ying Ning couldn't help grinning.

"Did you sleep well last night?"

Pet Tiange squeezed his eyes at her, and asked in a low voice, with a narrow smile hidden in his eyes.

He did fulfill his promise and sent her back after dinner yesterday, but in the meantime, he had almost tossed her half to death, until he realized that the petals between Ye Ying Ning's legs were slightly red and swollen, and he didn't stop petting Tiange.

Sure enough, she blushed and snorted, "Pet less, you seem to be very idle." ”

He took the wine glass, raised it to her, brought it to his lips and took a sip, and then smiled in his mouth: "I wish you good luck tonight in advance, and the city will fall into a battle." ”

Seeing that Pet Tiange was like this, Ye Ying Ning couldn't say anything, maybe it was the effect of alcohol, she gradually calmed down, her hands no longer trembled, and her brain began to get excited and extremely active.

With a smile on her face, her glass in her hand, she quickly blended in with the guests, greeting acquaintances and making new dignitaries.

It's just that she doesn't know if Lu Dao is Ye Yingning's illusion, she always feels that there seems to be one, two, or more cold eyes behind her, and she has been clinging to herself.
