Chapter 200 Preliminary Round
"Then answer me first, when did you come?" Shen Shuyan rubbed his sore neck.
Su Luo noticed her little movement from the corner of his eye, stretched out his right hand, put it on her head, and then turned her head so that she looked forward: "Don't look at me if your neck is sore, I know I'm handsome."
Shen Shuyan had been expressionless from the moment he got in the car until now. Because of Su Luo's last words, Shen Shuyan finally broke down and pulled the corner of his mouth: "Shameless."
Seeing that she finally smiled, Su Luo's tense nerves relaxed, and he joked, "I thought you were unhappy because I came to see you secretly."
"How could I not be happy?" Shen Shuyan propped his chin with his hand and tilted his head to look at him in a different way, "I'm just surprised."
After that, Shen Shuyan reminded him: "You haven't answered my question yet."
"Arrived in Italy at seven today."
"I asked the director for two days off."
"This is not my surprise for you."
Three questions in a row, three answers in a row.
"The director allowed you to take two days off. Last time, you only took an hour off because you wanted to take me to the airport. Now you are going even further. Will people accuse you of being a big shot?" Shen Shuyan was also thinking about him.
Su Luo curved his lips and said, "No, I gave the director all the parts I had for the two days I was away from work two days ago."
This is equivalent to Su Luo shooting four days' worth of scenes in two days. You can imagine how heavy the workload was.
Shen Shuyan suddenly felt distressed: "You don't have to come to watch my game."
"Feeling sorry?" Su Luo looked at her expression, clicked his tongue, and tried to make her happy, "It seems my love for you is not in vain."
"You're just being sentimental. I don't feel sorry for you at all." Shen Shuyan glanced at him and said stubbornly.
The hotel is not far from the competition venue, only about ten minutes away.
The car stopped steadily at the entrance of the competition. Shen Shuyan looked at the time. She still had to go in and get ready. She turned to look at Su Luo: "Do you want to go in and watch my game?"
"Since we're here, we must go." Su Luo said nonchalantly.
Anyone who wants to watch this competition needs an invitation. Shen Shuyan thought of the invitations the organizer handed her yesterday: "Then wait here for a moment, I'll get you the invitations."
"Okay." Su Luo said slowly, "Remember to take a few more, eight is best."
Hearing this, Shen Shuyan stopped walking and turned around: "Where can I get you eight invitations?" The organizer only gave her three invitations.
Shen Shuyan reacted and narrowed his eyes: "Wait, why do you need eight invitations for yourself?"
"A few of my friends came with me to watch the game. They happened to be recording a variety show in Italy." Su Luo raised his eyebrows and made up an excuse.
"I want to introduce you to my friends."
"Oh." Shen Shuyan nodded, "Then I'll go ask the organizer if they have any extra invitations."
"Row."
Time was running out, and Shen Shuyan came out with something in his hand within ten minutes of going in.
Shen Shuyan knocked on the car window. Su Luo looked over and pressed the button. The window slowly dropped down. "So fast?"
At the moment the car window was lowered, Shen Shuyan threw eight invitations directly into the passenger seat: "I won't say more to you yet. I'm going to go in and get ready."
Seeing her anxious look, Su Luo said, "After the game, let's have dinner together tonight. I have booked a restaurant."
Shen Shuyan hummed perfunctorily and made a gesture to leave.
Finally, Su Luo said, "Good luck in the game. I have prepared the gifts."
Shen Shuyan raised his eyes and looked at Su Luo in the car. His heart seemed to skip a beat. After a few seconds, he slowly said, "Okay, I look forward to the gift you prepare for me."
After saying that, Shen Shuyan went in to prepare for the competition.
Su Luo sent a message in the family group, informing them that they could come over and also sent them the location.
After sending the message, Su Luo personally called Shen Shuyan's parents to inform them.
Time passed by minute by minute, and several people were able to enter the scene with the invitation letters in their hands.
There are less than ten minutes left until the game.
The seats for several people are in a row, but closer to the front.
Su Su kept saying since she entered the venue: "God bless, I hope Yanyan will win first place."
Fu Yanzhou separated Su Su's clasped hands and held her small hands in his own: "Mrs. Fu, this is the thirty-fourth time you have said this."
"You're helping me count." Su Su pouted.
"You haven't spoken to me since you came in. You keep repeating that sentence, and I start counting it when I'm bored." Fu Yanzhou is very honest and is not afraid of Su Su making fun of him.
Su Su couldn't help but laugh: "You are so childish."
Su Luo kept his head down, looking at the watch on his wrist. The hour hand pointed to ten o'clock, and then the host's voice sounded on the stage.
Everyone looked up, and Su Luo swallowed his saliva. Although he was not the one participating in the competition, he was still a little nervous in his heart.
He had confidence in Shen Shuyan and believed that she could win first place in the competition.
The first round is the preliminary round, where fashion designers explain the concepts, original intentions and sources of inspiration for their works.
Shen Shuyan was contestant number three, hiding behind the stage, lifting the curtain, and secretly watching the scene on the stage. Seeing that contestant number two was about to finish his explanation, Shen Shuyan was so nervous that he swallowed his saliva, took a few deep breaths, and the nervousness gradually disappeared.
"Thank you for contestant number two's sharing." The host said in fluent English, "Now let's welcome contestant number three."
The moment the curtain was drawn open, Shen Shuyan curled the corners of his mouth in a standard professional smile, and walked to the stage with his work.
With tens of millions of people watching, it would be a lie to say I wasn't nervous.
Shen Shuyan looked at the people present, and his eyes subconsciously looked for Su Luo. When his gaze fell on the fourth row, his pupils suddenly shrank and a hint of surprise flashed across his eyes.
Su Su, Nan Jia and Shen's mother knew that Shen Shuyan saw them, so they waved at her and gave her a cheering gesture.
"Come on, please ask contestant number three to introduce to us the concept, original intention and source of inspiration for his creative work." said the host with a smile.
Shen Shuyan retracted his gaze and began to explain one by one seriously.
The 20-minute presentation received warm applause from the audience and satisfied nods from the judges.
There are a total of one hundred well-known designers from different countries participating in the competition, but only ten can enter the finals.
It was almost twelve o'clock, the preliminary round was over, and the host had already received the list of finalists: "Friends here, are you looking forward to it? I have already received the list of finalists."
"I won't waste any more time and will just report the numbers of the contestants who have made it to the finals."
Not only was Shen Shuyan nervous, but her family and friends were also worried about her.
