Chapter 594 - She is the Flower of Jiang City
Chapter 594: Chapter 594 She is the Flower of Jiang City
Sitting on the far left, the judge listlessly said after giving out a zero, “Next.”
The rest of the judges were equally dispirited.
They had almost no hope for the upcoming contestants.
All of them were looking down, sighing heavily.
It seemed that the prize money had nothing to do with their region at all.
Oh heavens, where have all the beautiful girls of Jiang City gone to?
Just as these judges felt that life was bleak,
a soft, sweet voice sounded in their ears.
“Hello everyone, I am contestant number 10086, An Nuonuo.”
“Boom!”
A single stone caused a thousand ripples!
Both the audience and the judges had been listless and had even resigned themselves to boredom.
But at this moment, they all suddenly raised their heads in astonishment, staring at the girl standing on stage.
The girl was dressed in a plain white dress, her face unadorned with makeup, her features picturesque.
Just standing there quietly, she was an unrivaled beauty.
Everyone present, regardless of gender, felt their breathing quicken and their minds hugely impacted at that moment.
This girl was invincible!
Following that, the venue erupted in deafening cheers.
“Oh my gosh, it’s An Nuonuo, it’s really An Nuonuo, I’m seeing her live!”
“So beautiful, really so beautiful, I’m having trouble breathing!”
“The Flower of Jiang City!”
“Yes, she is the Flower of Jiang City!”
…
Someone yelled out, and all the spectators began to chant along uproariously.
The noise shook the heavens.
Even the judges were holding up their perfect score cards while shouting along.
It was in the bag, this time it was completely secured.
With An Nuonuo here, the outcome was decided!
Even An Nuonuo herself hadn’t expected her popularity to be this explosive.
You could even see the frenzy in the eyes of many spectators.
She had seriously underestimated her own charm.
Jiang Xu in the stands also had a smile on his face, watching his fiancee with immense pride.
If a song lyric could describe this, it would be, “You stand in the center of thousands, basking in boundless glory.”
And online, the buzz was explosive.
“What the heck, An Nuonuo is representing Jiang City in the competition?”
“Then how are other regions supposed to compete?”
“Ah, I just left the venue, had I known An Nuonuo was competing, I wouldn’t have left even if you killed me!”
“Hurry hurry, go catch her now, I want to ask for her autograph!”
…
Online, many netizens were going crazy.
Especially those from Jiang City.
They had been constantly ridiculed by netizens from other regions, and with no way to retort due to a lack of strength, they had been secretly harboring resentment.
Now, they could finally hold their heads high.
Originally, Jiang City’s score was at the bottom of all the regions, only 1.9 out of 10.
But now, with An Nuonuo’s appearance, the score shot up to 8.2 in a very short time.
The current highest score was 9.3 by Chu Youwei from Qingcheng.
However, given the trend, catching up was just a matter of time.
An Nuonuo had earned the only perfect score of fifty points for the Jiang City region so far.
And she hadn’t even performed any talent yet.
“An Nuonuo, could you give me an autograph please?”
Seeing An Nuonuo about to leave, someone shouted from below the stage.
Many others echoed the sentiment.
An Nuonuo felt somewhat embarrassed and turned her gaze towards Jiang Xu.
This was something she needed to listen to him about.
Jiang Xu gave An Nuonuo a look, and she understood right away. She picked up the microphone and said, “Thank you, everyone, but there are other contestants who still have to perform, and we can’t delay them.
Um… after I go back, I will prepare some autographs and have someone deliver them to the entrance of the ‘Yue Lai Hotel’ tomorrow to give to everyone. Thank you.”
After saying that, she stepped down from the stage.
Although the audience felt slightly disappointed, they quickly became excited again.
Tomorrow, no, they would go to the hotel right now to queue up and secure their spots.
Some were die-hard fans of An Nuonuo and really wanted to collect her autograph.
Others wanted to get their hands on it just to sell it at a high price later.
An Nuonuo left via a special passage.
After leaving the competition venue, she finally let out a sigh of relief and relaxed completely.
She had been somewhat nervous on stage just now.
Especially because of the audience’s enthusiasm, which had taken her by surprise.
It was not until she was back home that An Nuonuo nestled into Jiang Xu’s arms and said softly, “It was so nerve-wracking, I’m lucky you were by my side, otherwise I might not have dared to go up.”
Jiang Xu smiled.
An Nuonuo wasn’t actually afraid to go up; instead, she had developed a strong dependence on him.
If he wasn’t around, An Nuonuo would become very tough.
The two hugged for a while before separating.
“Brother Xu, we got through the preliminary round, so where is the next competition going to be held?”
“Hmm, let me check.”
Jiang Xu looked it up online and then said, “After the preliminary round comes the semi-finals, which are divided into four regions nationwide.
For us, we need to go to Deep City to compete, and it’s in a week’s time.”
“Then what do we need to prepare for the semi-finals?”
“Hmm… singing, I guess. Just sing any song I wrote before, whichever you like is fine.”
Anyway, for this national School Beauty contest, both friends and foes were planning to promote An Nuonuo to the top spot.
So, there was no need to worry too much about it.
“By the way,” An Nuonuo remembered another question, “we don’t need to sign a contract to get that prize money, do we?”
This question was crucial.
“No need,” Jiang Xu said, “but basically, not many people would refuse.”
An Nuonuo nodded and didn’t continue the topic. Instead, she asked Jiang Xu what he wanted for dinner.
“You go rest, I’ll cook,” Jiang Xu said, “Don’t you still need to prepare the autographs?”
“Oh, alright, thank you, Brother Xu, love you,” An Nuonuo said, making a heart shape with her hands.
This was something Jiang Xu had taught her.
His fiancée was still the most beautiful and cutest one at home.
Jiang Xu sent someone out to buy groceries.
Zhou Qingyue called.
Jiang Xu frowned but still answered, “What’s up?”
“Um…” Zhou Qingyue said timidly, “Can I represent Jiang City in the competition too? I want to contribute to my hometown…”
She was still in her ‘reform period’, and without Jiang Xu’s permission, she wasn’t allowed to leave.
Jiang Xu had planned to refuse.
But after thinking it over, he realized the opportunity was rare.
It could help increase his hometown’s recognition.
So he agreed.
“Fine, you go. I’ll lift your ban early, go back to work,” he said.
He believed that Zhou Qingyue would not make similar mistakes again.
It was good for her to come out and start earning money for him sooner.
As he finished his words, he could hear Zhou Qingyue crying on the other end of the line.
Probably tears of joy.
Jiang Xu found it annoying and hung up the phone.
Next, there was another matter that needed to be addressed…
