Chapter 144 - You Are Not Worthy of Being A Designer!
“Xing Chen, what are you standing here for? Aren’t you one of the best rookie designers? Can’t you even find someone to be your runway model?”
A familiar voice came from behind.
Luo Chenxi frowned and turned around to look.
Wu Lingshan was standing right before her.
Wu Lingshan’s complexion was obviously worse compared to three days ago. She had dark circles under her eyes, and even her thick make-up foundation could not completely conceal her haggard expression.
Luo Chenxi said in surprise, “Wu Lingshan, how did you get released so quickly?”
Was she not arrested and brought to the police station?
Hearing this, Wu Lingshan got so angry that she gnashed her teeth. She felt like ripping Luo Chenxi into pieces!
That day, Wu Lingshan was arrested and brought to the police station while the netizens exposed her true colors. This had become the biggest stain in her life.
Fortunately for her, she was a smart person. No matter how the police officers questioned her, she refused to admit that she instigated Zuo Xiaoqing to steal.
Later, her father sent a lawyer over.
The surveillance cameras indeed did not capture any footage that could prove Wu Lingshan removing the diamond bracelet, so she ended up getting released because of insufficient evidence.
On the other hand, Zuo Xiaoqing became the one who took all the blame.
“Naturally, I was released because I’ve been innocent from the start! Don’t think that you can just twist the truth just because you incited the netizens to smear my name!” Wu Lingshan raised her chin and said righteously.
Luo Chenxi curled her lips. “Well then, I really have to congratulate you. A one-day trip to the police station isn’t something everyone gets to experience.”
She could easily guess what was going on.
Seeing that Luo Chenxi remained unmoved, a cold glint flashed across her eyes. “Xing Chen, I’ll give it to you straight, none of the models here will work with you! Your only choice is to find someone else that isn’t on the list! Didn’t you hook up with a rich person already? He even gave you a bracelet worth 70 million, so it must be a piece of cake for him to find you an international supermodel for the finals!”
Luo Chenxi frowned.
So Wu Lingshan was the one behind all of this.
Wu Lingshan’s parents were famous figures in the fashion industry. It was indeed possible for them to use their influence to forbid these models from performing for Luo Chenxi if they were determined to avenge their daughter.
Luo Chenxi’s face darkened. “Wu Lingshan, do you have no shame? Are you actually using such lowly methods to force me to withdraw from the finals?”
“Shame? As long as I can get the first prize, I don’t care about anything else!” Wu Lingshan sneered. “You should just withdraw from the competition. No one will be willing to model for you anyway!”
“Fine, fine, fine. How marvelous it is that you’ve admitted it yourself, what else can I say? However, if you really think that you can get the first prize by using such despicable methods, then you really aren’t worthy of being a designer!”
Luo Chenxi did not even bother trying to tell her off after hearing what Wu Lingshan said.
Wu Lingshan had long been used being the center of everyone’s attention, so she was completely incapable of accepting defeat.
She was no different from a lunatic now.
Luo Chenxi did not continue to argue with Wu Lingshan and turned around to leave the conference room.
On the way, she began to think about what she should do next.
Wu Lingshan was probably not lying. The models present probably dared not work with Luo Chenxi.
The SL Corporation’s partnership already covered the most mainstream modeling agencies in T City. If she did not choose a suitable model from the ones in the room, it would be difficult for her to do so with models that were not from the list.
Unless, she was willing to spend a ton of money to hire a top model.
However, in order to hire supermodels on par with Bai Xinxin, their appearance fee would reach millions. That was not an amount that Luo Chenxi could afford.
Luo Chenxi held her cell phone and looked at Mu Yichen’s name in her contact list, she felt extremely conflicted.
Should she borrow money from Mu Yichen?
It was not like Young Master Mu’s money was blown to him by the wind, so why would he lend her money?
At this moment, her phone suddenly rang, startling her from her train of thoughts.
