When Aileen hears this, she turns around immediately.
"Well... Is it true that I haven’t missed the competition?" Although she doesn't want to mention, some
questions are still very important, and it's impossible not to ask.
"Yes." Alex says, pushing the hangover soup into Aileen's hand. "You shouldn't sober up now,
remember to drink it up."
Aileen is stunned for a moment. She looks at the hangover soup in her hand. She remembers
everything before. She looks at Miya and asks, "Miya, hasn't the time changed?"
Miya nods, she also looks at Aileen speechlessly, "I don't know why you say that the sales meeting will
be after the competition. I have never changed the time."
"But..." Aileen wants to ask something, but is pushed into the house by Miya.
"But what? Although you haven't missed it now, if you don't speed up now, you will really miss it." Miya
says.
Aileen raises her hand to see her watch. It is almost five o'clock.
"I remember that the people participating in this competition should go to the scene in advance..."
Aileen whispers to herself, but is heard by Miya next to her.
"So you should know that the time is running out." Miya breaths in Aileen's ear.
This makes Aileen shiver.
Aileen swallows silently, nods, and says, "Miya, I will go back and change my clothes now. I will
definitely enter the venue neatly."
Aileen flees here as soon as she finishes speaking, but before she walks a few steps, she meets
Carmen.
Carmen has been standing there for a long time. She doesn't stop Aileen this time, and Aileen doesn't
talk to her.. After all, time is running out.
Miya and Alex follow Aileen, and then they see Carmen. Miya is also surprised for a moment. However,
it is Carmen who speaks first.
"Miya, is it possible for family members to accompany you in that contest?"
Carmen's question makes Miya shocked. "Well."
Carmen hesitates for a while, and says, "Then let me accompany that lady."
"What?" Miya feels that there might be something wrong with her ears.
"I want to enter the competition venue as the family of that lady here just now." Carmen says.
A few seconds after Miya is petrified, she says, "grandmother, what are you talking about? And, you
are standing here..."
Miya is about to ask how long Carmen has been standing here, but Carmen directly interrupts Miya.
"I'm going to the international competition with that lady." Carmen's tone rises instantly. "You are young
but is there anything wrong with your ears?"
"I..." Miya is speechless for a while, and after calming down, she speaks again, "grandmother, I hear
what you say, but... I don't understand, why do you go to the competition?"
"Don't you know my occupation? Think about how many domestic and international awards I win when
I am young, but I haven't heard this international competitions, so I'm going to have a look this time,"
Carmen says with self-confidence in her eyes which seems to tell that no one can compare with her. "I
think these young people nowadays are not so capable, but the ability to hype is really superb. I feel
that this international competition must be an indiscriminate competitions."
"Since you are so noble, don't go to see it." Aileen quickly dresses up herself and comes out. She has
a big baggage in her hand, and she puts on her shoes and walks to Miya, "Miya, I'm running out of
time, can you drive me there."
Miya also feels that it is too late, so she nods and ready to send Aileen away. However, before leaving,
she is stopped by Carmen.
She raises her arrogant chin, and says, "It's okay. I can teach the current designers how to do their job
well."
"Are you the savior of the world?" Aileen is now sober, and she will not quarrel with Carmen again, but
she will not treat Carmen well.
"I don't dare to be the savior of the world, but in this industry, I think I have that qualification." A scornful
smile appears on Carmen's face.
"Then you really have considerable self-confidence." Aileen probably doesn't expect Carmen to be so
cheeky. Since then, she doesn't even expect Carmen to say something nice, and she says to Miya
again, "Miya, send me away quickly."
Miya feels that Carmen is joking, so she whispers to Carmen, "grandmother, we will be back soon.
Let's have fun with the children at home."
"What are you talking about?" Carmen frowns when she hears Miya's words. She says, "Are you
treating me as Alzheimer? You even talk to me in such a childish tone. Miya, Do you think you have
become really something?"
"Grandmother, I'm already an adult." Miya is a little annoyed now, Carmen's standards for her is in
accordance with the standards of children.
"So what? When you come to me with Ben and Joey in your arms, are you like an adult? You don't
even have the basic ability to be a mother. Why do you give birth to so many children?" Carmen
involves many things that happen a long time ago. "You don't have money at the time. Do you forget
who uses the pension money to support you? I'm so pitiful. My daughter runs away with someone. My
granddaughter is also leaving me. My Goodness, why is my life so tough..."
Miya remembers that time. At the beginning, she is lack of ability on raising children, but she
remembers that she has worked very hard to learn, and she also does part-time jobs, and in the end
basically returns all the money to Carmen. Miya thinks she should not owe Carmen any money, but the
favor at the time is indeed unclear, so she can not say anything to refute it.
"Forget it, just follow me."
