The cannon fodder female supporting role in the misplaced life

"Thank you for your trust in me, manager!" Sally raised her head, looked at the manager firmly, and answered confidently, "Don't worry, I will do my best and live up to your expectations, manager!" The manager nodded with satisfaction and encouraged: "Well, prepare well. I believe that with your talent you will be able to achieve excellent results in the competition. If you need any help or support, please feel free to tell me." Sally responded gratefully, and then left the manager's office with joy.

To prepare the design for the competition, Xu Yingying worked during the day and then spent the evenings drawing. She was so engrossed in it that she forgot to eat or sleep. Even Lin Xinyi knew her mother was entering a drawing competition. When she got home, she didn't dare speak loudly for fear of disturbing her mother.

This design competition has attracted much attention, and even the TV station has attached great importance to it, and specially invited the famous domestic design master Chen Xi to serve as a judge for the final. The competition is divided into three stages: preliminary round, semi-final and final.

First, the preliminary round required each contestant to carefully prepare and submit a masterpiece. These entries were then carefully screened by the judges. The preliminary round employed a brutal elimination system, and after rounds of intense competition, only fifteen exceptional contestants emerged and advanced to the semifinals.

The semifinals were filled with even more challenges. Participants were required to randomly select one of the four seasons—spring, summer, autumn, and winter—as their theme and quickly conceive and design a unique garment based on it. Finally, the judges evaluated each piece based on its creativity, technique, and overall presentation, selecting the top five contestants to advance to the finals.

The heart-pounding finals finally arrived! Master Chen Xi personally crafted the topics for the five top contestants. Now, these five experts had to give their all to complete their projects within the allotted time limit.

After all contestants have successfully submitted their papers, it will be Master Chenxi's turn to take the stage. He will use his profound professional attainments and unique vision accumulated over the years to solemnly announce the champion of this competition.

The preliminary round was naturally not a difficult task for Xu Yingying and her team, who were experienced and skilled. After careful consideration, they decided to each carefully select one piece from the new spring collection as their entry.

This choice is like taking an open-book exam, as these new spring products have already won widespread recognition and favor among consumers. Faced with such favorable conditions, they remain calm and composed, showing confidence.

However, what really made them feel difficult and full of pressure was the third round of improvisational design. This part was not easy, as it not only tested the contestants' basic hand-drawing skills, but also tested their cutting skills in all aspects.

Especially for a new contestant like Xu Yingying, it is undoubtedly a very challenging task to successfully complete the entire process from the initial creative conception to the final product presentation within a limited time. The difficulty can be imagined.

But then again, if they can't successfully break through and advance in the first two rounds with their own strong strength, then they will have no chance to face the severe test of the third round.

Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, it was the day of the preliminaries. Xu Yingying and Yu Lili, filled with excitement and nervousness, stepped into the doors of Ningcheng TV Station for the first time. They were awestruck by the grandeur and modernity of the station.

The competition was organized in an extremely orderly manner. Led by the enthusiastic and friendly staff, the two walked through the long corridor and finally arrived at the competition venue. The venue was beautifully decorated, with dazzling lights and a spacious and gorgeous stage.

As soon as they entered the venue, the sharp-eyed Yu Lili suddenly spotted a familiar figure, and her expression instantly turned a little uneasy. Xu Yingying hadn't noticed anything unusual yet, only to see a woman dressed in fashionable clothes and with a graceful posture slowly walking towards them with an elegant catwalk.

The woman approached with a mocking smile on her face. She said, "Oh, isn't this Yu Lili, the one who was fired from our company? I can't believe you still have the nerve to participate in this competition!"

Hearing this, Yu Lili's heart sank. She had never expected to encounter Sally, the culprit who had driven her out of the company, in such a situation. However, Yu Lili didn't flinch. She straightened her back and responded bluntly, "Huh? If someone like you is qualified to be here, why can't I be here too?"

Sally's face was filled with a smug smile. She held her head high and spoke in a condescending tone, "Hmph, let me tell you something. I'm representing our renowned at Clothing in this competition! Pretty impressive, huh? And you, what small, low-brow brand are you representing?" She deliberately glanced at the brand on Yu Lili's chest, her face filled with contempt and disdain. She curled her lips and sneered, "Oh, what kind of cheap brand is this Star? How come I've never even heard of it? Could it be some random little workshop churning out something to fool people?"

At this moment, Xu Yingying, who had been standing next to Yu Lili, noticed her increasingly grim expression and instantly understood what was going on. She stepped forward and rudely shouted at Sally, "Hey, you self-righteous young lady, could you please step aside and move aside? Don't get in the way here. A good dog doesn't block the road!"

When Sally heard this, she was so angry that her eyebrows raised up. She glared at Xu Yingying fiercely and shouted angrily: "How dare you curse me? Say it again if you dare! I will teach you a lesson for not knowing your place!"

However, facing Sally's anger, Xu Yingying remained calm. She shrugged her shoulders as if nothing had happened and responded lightly: "Oh, whoever blocks the way is a dog. Am I wrong?" Before she finished speaking, she no longer paid attention to the angry Sally, but reached out and grabbed Yu Lili, and quickly walked towards their own competition room.
