My Aloof Husband Can't Stop His Devoted Affection

Chapter 339 - 298: Withdrawal_2

"I read it, that’s why I came to ask if you had.""Did you get selected?"

"Yes, I did."

"That’s great." Cen Jin, in her joy, clicked open her email and found that she had also been selected. She jumped up excitedly, grabbing Ye Lingran’s shoulders, "Yay, I got selected too."

"Really?"

"Yes."

"That’s good then." Ye Lingran felt relieved and smiled, "The questions and rules for the second round of the competition seem to be announced on the website only in the afternoon."

"Yes, I think that’s right."

That afternoon, the organizers indeed announced the rules for the second round of the competition on the website. Twelve people were selected, and only five could advance in this round. Each person’s test questions were different, sent to them via text message by the judges.

In the evening, Cen Jin packed her wedding dress in a specially made wooden box and brought it home directly. When she showed it to Jiang Baizhou, he was stunned for a moment and forgot to react.

It was rare to see him so dazed, and Cen Jin couldn’t help but laugh. She placed a hand on his shoulder and asked with a bright smile, "Don’t look so unsophisticated, alright? How does it feel? Does it look good?"

"Yes, it looks good." Jiang Baizhou just smiled at his wife’s teasing and did not retort; instead, he took the opportunity to wrap his arms around her slender waist, drawing her into his embrace, and gently kissed her lips, "And what about your dress? Is it done too?"

"Not yet!" Cen Jin refolded the wedding dress and put it back into the wooden box. "But it shouldn’t take much longer to make. We can use it when we take our wedding photos. By the way, have you thought about where to take those photos?"

"Where do you want to go?" Jiang Baizhou leaned against the door frame, arms crossed, and asked softly.

"Hmm..." Cen Jin closed the wooden box and contemplated seriously, deliberately prolonging her answer, "At first, I wanted to go abroad for the photos, but after thinking it over, it seems unnecessary, expensive, and impractical. I think there are several beautiful places right here in Nancheng that are perfect for wedding photos. Plus, the scenery in our neighboring city, Chaoyuan City, is pretty nice too. So let’s choose these two places!"

"Alright, whatever you like."

"Then after this competition is over, I’ll contact someone in the industry to take the wedding photos!" Check latest chapters at novel_fіre.net

"Okay." Jiang Baizhou responded softly. He suddenly remembered today was the day results were announced. Seeing her so happy, she must have advanced. After pondering for a moment, he still asked, "The competition... did you advance?"

Cen Jin, upon hearing this, smiled and walked up to him, opened her arms to embrace his waist, and nodded heavily, "Yes, I passed. The rules for the second round are out. Everyone has different questions, and I haven’t received mine yet."

Jiang Baizhou squinted slightly, a trace of danger in his eyes, and hugged her tightly, "That’s good. Now, shouldn’t we discuss something else?"

"Huh? What... Oh... Jiang Baizhou, what are you doing?" Just as Cen Jin was puzzled, Jiang Baizhou suddenly picked her up horizontally, startling her into a panic. She hurriedly grabbed onto his clothes, and when she met his slightly muddled eyes and fox-like sly smile, she seemed to understand something.

The second round of the competition lasted three days, and Cen Jin’s task was the phrase "Innocent Youth." This wasn’t difficult for Cen Jin, as everyone had gone through that innocent and naive age and had dreams about wedding dresses. Cen Jin also tried to recall what kind of wedding dress she had dreamed of at seventeen or eighteen years old.

During these three days, Cen Jin mostly just visited the studio in the morning. She ultimately couldn’t take up Miss Zhai’s order due to not reaching an agreement on the price. Miss Zhai had high demands but wanted an economic price. Although Cen Jin tried her best to lower the price, Miss Zhai was still unsatisfied. Hence, Cen Jin had no choice but to give up and focus on completing her competition draft.

Since everyone’s test questions were different, Cen Jin didn’t ask Ye Lingran about hers. It wasn’t until after the competition that Cen Jin heard from Ye Lingran that her topic was conveniently aligned with the style of the Republic of China period, which made Cen Jin quite envious. Luck is indeed part of skill!

When the results of the second part of the competition were announced, it was already a week later. Looking at the list of five people advancing on the official website, besides Cen Jin and Ye Lingran, An Yuyao had also made it. For the final part of the competition, the question was personally created by Master Made, titled "Your Ideal Wedding Dress." The design time was only two days, and on the third day, submissions had to be handed over for the judges to select three winners.
