Chapter 1311: Mo Yunyao’s Last Masterpiece Before Her Demise
The Wen Corporation had booked a large event hall in Shangri-La that could house thousands of people. There was a large screen at the front of the hall, which was displaying a video of all of the most iconic pieces of jewelry that the Wen Corporation had sold in the past few years.
There was a long runway below the screen where the reporters were crowding around along the side. The crew and staff members were standing on the other side of the runway. The audience was facing the front of the runway and on both sides of the audience pit, there were open-space mini halls with plenty of alcohol and food.
After announcing the commencement of the jewelry exhibition, the lights suddenly went out, leaving only the spotlights that were shining on the runway, making it look amazingly fascinating.
The large yellow chandelier on the side of the runway had long crystal tassels which were opulent and exuded beautiful, alluring rays of light.
Next, melancholic music began to sound in the event hall, tugging at the heartstrings of the guests. Everyone knew that Mo Yunyao’s outstanding designs would be displayed on the screen soon. They were all looking forward to seeing the pieces that had never been shown to the world.
After all, no one had surpassed the legendary and outstanding achievements that Mo Yunyao had made in China.
Wen Xinya was extremely agitated as well. She was excited to see the guests’ response to her mother’s masterpieces.
The first to appear in front of everyone was a famous Chinese model who was wearing a shiny and eye-catching yellow tassel necklace which was unique and beautiful. The tassels resembled a beautiful flower that was vintage yet petite and full of life. One would be able to feel its warmth with just one glance.
Mo Yunyao actually managed to come up with such a warm design using cold and hard diamonds.
Everyone was flabbergasted.
Clearly, the Wen Corporation’s jewelry exhibition was completed successfully.
The beautiful models strutted along the runway, occasionally stopping to pose and show off the jewelry that they were wearing while the reporters frantically snapped photos of them.
At this moment, a glass of red wine was placed in front of Wen Xinya.
“Thanks!” Wen Xinya exclaimed while grabbing the glass of red wine. She then turned towards the side to see that Zhou Tianyu, Du Ruo, Ye Feiyu and Du Ruoxin were standing beside her.
In high spirits, Wen Xinya asked, “Where are Gu Junling and the rest. Didn’t he come along with you guys?”
She had specially invited her friends to attend the Wen Corporation’s jewelry exhibition. However, they did not give her an answer.
Zhou Tianyu stared into the distance and said, “They’re looking at the exhibits over there. They should be here soon.”
Wen Xinya looked in the direction of Zhou Tianyu’s gaze to see that Gu Junling, Ling Qingxuan, and Han Mofeng were standing not too far away from her and watching the exhibition while chatting with each other. Seemingly having sensed hat she was staring at them, they looked at her and raised their glasses in a bid to greet her.
Wen Xinya discovered that Xu Zhenyu was not together with them. She asked, “Where’s Xu Zhenyu? Isn’t he rather free lately?”
Xu Tongxuan snorted with laughter and said, “For some reason, the news of Xu-er’s promotion spread like wildfire in Capital city and he’s really famous now, just like he used to be. Now that he has become a Colonel, everyone is swooning over him, especially because of his stunning good looks. He obviously wouldn’t dare to show up here.”
Even Wen Xinya burst into laughter.
Ye Feiyu clinked glasses with her and said, “The jewelry exhibition today is very special, and… you’re really beautiful tonight! You must remember the promise that you made to me!”
When Ye Feiyu met Wen Xinya at Capital University three years ago, she knew that it was only a matter of time before this day arrived. However, she did not expect it to be so soon, though she was genuinely happy for Wen Xinya.
Wen Xinya said smilingly, “You wanted me to design a set of jewelry for you after I become a renowned designer, didn’t you? Alright… I’ll definitely keep it in mind.”
Du Ruoxin snorted and gave Ye Feiyu the side-eye. “A set of jewelry is enough to satisfy you? You’re so easy to please and you’re so silly that it’s adorable. Once Wen Xinya becomes a renowned jewelry designer, shouldn’t we let her design all of our jewelry? She’s our friend. A set of jewelry is not enough.”
For the first time, Ye Feiyu did not get offended by Du Ruoxin’s harsh criticism. Instead, she glanced at Wen Xinya with sparkling eyes.
Wen Xinya’s face grew sullen and she glowered at Du Ruoxin. “You’re the petty one. Since when did I agree to design jewelry for you too? Girl… don’t be such a narcissist!”
Du Ruoxin glanced at her and sneered. “How immature!”
Wen Xinya would become extremely childish and break out of her usual composure whenever she was with her friends.
The few of them snorted with laughter.
Du Ruoxin had already joined their clique. Although she was straightforward and blunt, she was actually a nice person. Hence, everyone was thrilled to see Du Ruoxin and Wen Xinya bicker with each other.
Du Ruo walked towards Wen Xinya with a glass of juice. She held onto Wen Xinya’s arm and said, “Xinya, you’re really beautiful today! You seemed to glow on stage just now.”
Wen Xinya stared at Du Ruo, whose face was round and exquisite like that of a doll. Unable to resist it, Wen Xinya gently pinched Du Ruo’s face and said, “So soft and smooth. You’re really adorable.”
Everyone had already gotten used to seeing Wen Xinya pinch Du Ruo’s cheeks.
At this moment, Gu Junling walked towards them with some red wine.
Ling Qingxuan said smilingly, “Queen, please have a drink! I yelled the loudest when you made your appearance just now. See… my voice has already become hoarse!”
Gu Junling kicked him and gibed. “Don’t think that I didn’t see you flirting with girls when Xinya appeared just now.”
Han Mofeng then mimicked Ling Qingxuan’s voice and said, “Miss, you have such a unique and outstanding elegance…” He then clutched his stomach and pretended to barf before laughing out loud.
The girls began laughing uncontrollably.
Ling Qingxuan’s face grew sullen and retorted. “How could you tease me like this? Is there a point in you guys doing this to me? Will you become tall, handsome and rich just by doing this?”
Everyone laughed out loud.
They often joked about the classic line made by Xu-er.
