Reborn Aristocrat: Return of the Vicious Heires

Chapter 1529: Teacher Jill as the Judge!

Actually, although Wen Xinya had checked on Shen Siwen and had a rough understanding of her, she wasn’t sure exactly what kind of person she was.

However, through the conversation with her now, Wen Xinya could vaguely understand Shen Siwen’s attitude.

Shen Siwen seemed enthusiastic towards her and was respectful and full of praises for her, making it seem like she was truly impressed with Wen Xinya’s capability. However, this was impossible.

On the journey of jewelry design, Shen Siwen was Wen Xinya’s senior. Also, she had a long-standing reputation in the jewelry design field as a genius, had taken part in more jewelry design competitions than Wen Xinya, and had a better reputation than Wen Xinya. How could she really disregard her status and pride and belittle herself just to show how impressed she was with Wen Xinya?

Moreover, Wen Xinya was her competitor.

The only reason for Shen Siwen’s action was that the ruby design theme made her assume that Wen Xinya could never be her match, was destined to fail, and was destined to be her stepping stone to success. Thus, regardless of how respectful she was, no matter what, she would still emerge victoriously.

Such an attitude was befitting of the most hypocritical faces of the people of Country H.

Wen Xinya was extremely annoyed and was considering if she should just leave.

“Oh, Wen. It’s really nice to meet you in such a setting.” The passionate voice with exaggerating excitement demonstrated his elation at meeting Wen Xinya.

Wen Xinya turned around, saw the representative from the French Vogue International Jewelry Association, Jill de Castei, and couldn’t help but put on a joyful expression.

“Teacher Jill, I didn’t expect for us to meet again so soon.” Ever since she knew Teacher Jill, Wen Xinya had always kept in touch with him. Teacher Jill was a world-renowned design judge. Regardless of his character or his interpretation and taste in terms of jewelry design, he was worthy of Wen Xinya’s sincere friendship.

However, they had always maintained a hedge between their friendship and didn’t keep very close contact. Occasionally, when Wen Xinya met a bottleneck in jewelry design, she would ask Teacher Jill for advice, and Teacher Jill had always shared freely with her.

From the time she met Teacher Jill previously, it had been but slightly more than three months. She really didn’t expect to meet Teacher Jill again so soon.

Their conversation somehow neglected Shen Siwen and Yan Menglu who were beside them.

Yan Menglu was looking rather awful. She knew that Jill de Castei was an important member of and held a high position in the French Vogue International Jewelry Association and that Wen Xinya had the chance to know such an important character because of Mo Yunyao’s masterpiece. She felt very jealous of Wen Xinya.

Wen Xinya wasn’t truly capable—she just had a good mother and she took advantage of her reputation.

And Shen Siwen’s gentle and amiable expression started falling apart when she saw Jill de Castei. She had been in the jewelry design field for so long and knew better than anyone else what Jill de Castei stood for in the jewelry design field. She didn’t expect Wen Xinya to actually be on such good terms with him.

This made her even more wary of Wen Xinya.

What made it worse was that she was obviously also standing beside Jill de Castei and had a better reputation in the jewelry design field than Wen Xinya, but he actually totally ignored her presence.

This made Shen Siwen detest Wen Xinya even more.

Wen Xinya asked rather curiously, “Teacher Jill, are you here to watch the International Jewelry Design Competition this time?”

This time, the Jewelry Design Competition held by the Milan World Expo had attracted attention from all over the world. Many people in the jewelry design field came over to watch the competition this time, and she wasn’t surprised to see Teacher Jill appearing here.

Jill looked at Wen Xinya and said meaningfully, “I’ve been invited by the Milan World Expo to participate in the Jewelry Design Competition this around as a judge in the grand finals.”

Previously, he had rejected several invitations from the Milan World Expo. Then, when he saw that Wen Xinya got into the grand finals successfully and saw her works for the finals, he suddenly had the interest to participate.

A spark went off and Wen Xinya widened her eyes. “Were you the one who suggested using ruby as the design theme!”

Everyone knew that it was the first time that the International Jewelry Design Competition held by the Milan World Expo had such a simple theme. Previously, she had already felt odd, but she never thought much into it. Now that she saw Teacher Jill, she somehow had this thought.

Jill smiled. “Indeed, it was suggested by me. It was also because I’ve seen the red-themed series that you’ve designed. Although the products in this series were well-received and had their merits, ever since I saw your works in this competition, I feel that you still have more potential to breakthrough. Thus, I wanted to see just how far you can go.”

Indeed, he had vested interest in the suggestion of the ruby theme and wanted to test Wen Xinya out. The other judges of the competition roughly knew his intention and he also persuaded the organizers and association with valid reasons. Eventually, everyone approved of the suggestion.

Indeed, she was right. Wen Xinya couldn’t help but touch her forehead. “I didn’t expect you to actually think so highly of me.”

Wen Xinya really didn’t know whether to cry or laugh.

However, she knew that a truly strong person wouldn’t be afraid of any tests and was still very grateful to Mr. Jill.

Jill saw her unreserved expression and knew that she understood his good intentions. He smiled, patted her shoulder, and said, “I’ve rarely seen your talent in jewelry design and you’re improving and growing rapidly. However, you’ve gotta remember that on the journey of jewelry design, you’ve got to defeat not your opponent but yourself. Only by searching for your own breakthrough can you go even further.”

Only by constantly surpassing oneself and breaking through one’s own limits could one keep improving.

This was his true intention of using the ruby design theme.

Wen Xinya’s expression turned serious as she said, “Thank you, Teacher Jill, for your pointers. I got it!”

Teacher Ji Shihan told her that on the journey in jewelry design, she had to stick to her beliefs in order to have a character as bedazzling as the jewels—this was sticking to one’s principles.

And Teacher Jill told her that only by surpassing and breaking through her own limits could she keep improving—this was constantly improving.

Combining both defensive and aggressive tactics, she wasn’t afraid of any hurdles.
