I snagged a bargain in a melodramatic novel and became incredibly wealthy!

Looking at He Anyao again, there was a bag full of all sorts of small items in front of her.

Each piece was small, exquisite, and unique, making her love them all.

It turned out that He Anyao thought these little items were so beautiful that she didn't hesitate to spend a lot of money to buy many of them.

At the time, the staff originally planned to give these items to her as gifts for free, but when He Anyao quoted that astonishing price, the staff were instantly stunned and had no way to refuse this huge deal.

She secretly accepted the money on behalf of the studio and had He Anyao transfer it to the studio's financial account.

So, He Anyao successfully carried this big bag of strange and cute little items.

At the same time, Li Xue received a cute little plush toy. The toy was so adorable that it made you want to hug it.

Finally, it was Wei Yan's turn. He received a magnificent feather brooch, the feather adorned with dazzling zircon stones.

As for Shanhe, although she was initially a little disgusted when she received the cherry blossom-shaped pen, and even thought about throwing it away, upon closer inspection, she found that the pen was actually quite beautiful.

After some thought, he decided not to discard the pen for the time being, but to give it to Yuan Yi as a congratulatory gift later to express his congratulations.

The competition ended much faster than expected, as if time had been accelerated. Before people could even catch their breath, the morning's schedule had already come to a hasty close.

However, this is just the beginning, as an exciting photo session awaits everyone in the afternoon.

On the field, all the contestants showed friendliness and enthusiasm.

They shook hands and hugged each other, using body language to convey respect and appreciation for their competitors.

Even more so, some participants took the initiative to invite other contestants to take photos together, creating a warm and harmonious atmosphere.

Unfortunately, Yuan Yi failed to stand out in this fierce competition and was eliminated.

At this moment, her mood was as gloomy as if shrouded in mist, heavy and depressed.

She slowly turned her head, her gaze falling on Xu Qingming and Jiang Li, who were full of vigor on the field, and a sense of indescribable loss welled up in her heart.

If I had worked harder back then, if I had known more, perhaps the outcome would have been different.

But reality is cruel. Faced with those tricky questions, she felt powerless and could not give accurate answers to many of them.

Just as Yuan Yi was immersed in the pain of self-reflection, a clear and melodious voice suddenly broke the surrounding silence.

"Miss, can I take a picture with you?"

Looking in the direction of the sound, she saw a stylishly dressed, sexy girl walking towards Yuan Yi with a beaming smile.

A striking five-pointed star was meticulously painted on her face, and she held a cell phone aloft in her hand, her eyes filled with anticipation.

Yuan Yi was slightly taken aback, and somewhat at a loss, pointed to herself and asked, "Me...me?"

She could hardly believe what was happening before her eyes, and even suspected that the other person had mistaken her for someone else.

So she quickly explained, "I...I didn't pass the competition. Are you trying to...have them take pictures?"

As she spoke, she pointed to Xu Qingming and Jiang Li, who were taking photos with someone in the distance.

The hot girl blinked her big eyes, which were painted with bright red eyeshadow, and nodded without hesitation, saying, "No, I just want to take a picture with you."

Seeing that Yuan Yi still looked hesitant, the feisty girl pouted playfully and said, pretending to be angry, "What's wrong? Do you look down on me because you participated in the competition, since I can't participate?"

Yuan Yi explained in a flustered manner, "That's not it, I really just... when I saw you come, I subconsciously thought maybe you had the wrong person."

"After all, there are so many people here, and we've never met before."

As she spoke, she unconsciously fiddled with the hem of her clothes, her eyes darting around, appearing extremely uneasy.

At that moment, the hot girl laughed heartily, revealing a set of clean, white teeth, and said loudly, "Haha, how could I possibly have made a mistake!"

"Don't think too much about it, come on, let's take a picture to remember this moment."

After saying that, she raised her phone and greeted Yuan Yi with great interest.

When she was watching the big screen on the field, and her eyes fell on Yuan Yi, she felt like she was seeing herself. In her youth, she was just as shy as Yuan Yi, but they would eventually shine.

"Come on, look at the camera, let's all say 'cheese' into our phones."

The hot girl shouted enthusiastically.

Upon hearing this, Yuan Yi's palms sweated with nervousness, but she still forced herself to make a not-so-perfect peace sign in front of the phone and whispered in a voice barely audible, "Cheese..."

The instant she finished speaking, a crisp "click" was heard, and the sound of a phone taking pictures suddenly rang out, freezing this moment forever in the frame.

In the photo, two unfamiliar girls stand side by side.

One of the girls, Yuan Yi, appeared somewhat shy and bashful, with her head slightly lowered and a faint blush on her face; while the other girl, the hot girl, had a flamboyant and confident look on her face, with a bright and beautiful smile that seemed to illuminate the whole world.

Despite their contrasting personalities, the two stood together in perfect harmony, like two vibrant flowers blooming in spring, each radiating its own unique charm, bright and captivating.

Looking at the bustling crowd in front of him, Caiyi couldn't help but laugh out loud: "Oh dear, look at this scene, why do we need to go and greet them? We can't even squeeze in!"

She shook her head helplessly, her eyes full of smiles.

Seeing this, Xiao Baihua thought for a moment and suggested, "In that case, why don't we go back to the car and wait? There are just too many people here."

Wei Ke and Li Xue nodded in agreement: "Yes, yes, it's more reliable to go back and wait. There are so many people, even if we stand in the first row, we still won't be able to get a good spot."

"I really don't know how fast these people can run to fill up the space in such a short time."

So the group turned and walked toward the car, leaving the noisy scene behind them as they walked away.

If it weren't for the tireless efforts of the numerous staff members on site to maintain order, the consequences would have been unimaginable!

If a stampede occurs, it could trigger a terrible disaster, causing incalculable casualties and property damage.
