Group Competition
Francis had always gone with the sexy style, as was apt, considering his strongest point was his good
looks.”
Changing his style is going to be easier said than done.
Exhausted from all the thinking, Christina fell asleep. The whole night, she kept dreaming of Nathaniel,
either of him walking out of the bathroom after taking a shower or him looking all elegant in a suit.
Her wonderful dream was eventually disrupted by her morning alarmi
They were going to start working on their outfits today. In order to get more footage, the director invited
some of the participants to do an interview on the first floor of the mansion.
Margaret, Nancy, and two other designers were talking about their daily lives and where they usually
drew inspiration from.
Anyone who was in the industry knew that their words meant nothing. Inspiration was something that
no one was able to express properly.
Christina immediately headed to the studio after breakfast. To prevent plagiarism, each tailor station
was hidden from view by wooden panels. Apart from the public area, no one knew what everyone else
was doing.
Christina drew several designs but was still unsatisfied with them. Ultimately, she combined all the
elements she had been thinking about and finally came up with a draft she was happy with.
Now that she had a concrete idea, she could begin working on it.
When Christina went to select the fabrics, she realized that they were merely of ordinary quality.
Everyone else who came after her also realized the same thing.
Logically, Selena wouldn’t provide them with fabrics of such low quality.
Just then, the director announced through the broadcast system that all designers were to gather on
the first floor of the mansion..
Amidst their confusion, the designers shuffled to the first floor and saw that the living room was filled
with the highest quality fabric one could get along with all kinds of beautiful
gemstones.
All these materials would help them take their designs to the next level.
“Designers, I’m sure all of you have already noticed that the fabrics in the tailor room are not up to par.
Now, you’ll be playing a game. The winning team will get to choose their fabrics first, and the losers will
have to make do with the leftovers.”
Isn’t this a proper fashion design competition? Why does it feel like we’re in a variety show?
No one was willing to participate in such a ridiculous game, but if they refused, they wouldn’t be able to
get the fabrics.
Only a designer would know how important the quality of the material was to the outfit.
The director continued, “Now, please form into groups of two. Once you’re done, go to the courtyard
and wait for the game to begin!”
With that, the staff members all left the house and started to set up.
Margaret and Nancy immediately paired up with each other and went out.
The remaining participants started to look for partners as well, with the taller ones being favored as

Standing at a hundred and sixty-two centimeters, Christina was not considered tall and thus was
quickly.
left out.
On the other side of the living room, some of the participants were fighting over their partners. One
woman-an influencer-pushed a man to the ground and spat, “How are you even going to take part in
the race with that low stamina of yours? Don’t go making a fool of yourself by huffing and panting after
running a few steps.”
The man stood up and retorted, “She already agreed to team up with me, yet here you are, screaming
at me after snatching my partner.”
With single eyelids, a tall nose, and thin lips, he wasn’t very good-looking, but he carried himself pretty
well.
There had been several male participants at the start of the competition, but they had been eliminated
over the last few rounds, leaving him the only one.
Hence, the female participants ostracized him.
“It’s utterly humiliating to have a graduate from an unknown college like you compete with those of us
who attended the most prestigious design schools!”
“I’ll make sure you get eliminated in this round!”
They say that segregation is bound to happen when humans gather. Well, that saying is true.
Those female designers were graduates from prestigious fashion design schools, so it was natural that
they looked down on those who were not.
However, proclaiming that they were superior to others was a clear sign of their vanity.
Having the capability was what mattered most.
Christina approached the man and tugged on his arm. “We can be partners if you don’t mind.”
“Of course I don’t mind. My name is Benjamin. What’s yours?”
He didn’t seem to be affected at all and spoke with her gently.
“Christina.”
The two of them walked to the courtyard to see that several cameras were already set up.
The area marked out for the race was filled with acupressure plates, and the participants were required
to run across them barefoot. The order of picking the materials would be determined by the final
ranking of the race. Hence, the pair to cross the finish line first would get the first pick.
After all the pairs were ready, the staff members tied their feet together with a rope. Winning a three-
legged race would require seamless teamwork.
“Ready, get set, go!”
At the director’s command, everyone huddled together with their partners and ran forward.
+25 Bonus
Christina and Benjamin were working pretty well together. Margaret, who was about to catch up to
them, grew indignant as she watched them advance. Margaret and Nancy were gunning for the top
spot.
They exchanged glances and immediately gave Christina a hard shove.
Christina lost her balance and collapsed to the ground, scraping her palms and forehead on the uneven
surface of the acupressure plates.
“It hurts…” Christina whispered, tears welling up in her eyes.
Benjamin glared at Margaret and Nancy. “Why did you push her?”
“What are you going to do about it?” They shot Christina a smug smile and headed to the finish line
together.
Benjamin was so furious he wanted to cuss them out. Those two women are so shameless for
resorting to dirty tricks!
“Are you okay, Christina?” he asked worriedly.
“I’m fine.”
Christina endured the pain and got up just as the pairs behind them caught up. The crowd of people
hindered their movement, which resulted in them getting fourth place.
This meant they could only choose whatever was left over from the pairs before them.
By the time Christina and Benjamin returned to the house, there were only scraps of accessories and
fabrics left.
The three pairs before them must have done it on purpose. There was no way they could use up all the
material they had taken.
Taking all of the beautiful fabric left Christina and Benjamin with a severe lack of choices.
“I’m sorry for dragging you down with me,” Christina said a little guiltily as she lowered her eyes to hide.
her turbulent emotions.
She knew that every single round in the competition determined if they were able to stay on.
Benjamin chuckled lightly. “We still have some to choose from. Let’s make the most of it.”
Once they picked all suitable materials from the pile of scraps, they returned to the design studio.
Those who finished after them grew annoyed when they saw the undesirable materials.
“How are we supposed to use these scraps?”
The people before us are so selfish for taking all the nice fabrics.”
“What do we do now? Are we going to lose the competition just like that?”
They were extremely exasperated. As all of them had graduated from prestigious design schools, they
weren’t willing to lose to those who attended obscure ones.
“Let’s just put on a show and pick what we can. I’ll deal with the rest!”
They randomly grabbed some of the fabrics before heading to the tailor room.
Meanwhile, the director was watching the footage with a satisfied smile on his face.
This is precisely the result I wanted.
“Let’s go and edit this. Once this airs, I’m sure the views will break a new record.”
He took some personnel with him and left while the remaining staff members stayed in the mansion to
continue monitoring the designers’ activities.
Creaking noises could be heard from the tailor room as the designers bustled about.
They were to present their final product the day after tomorrow, so they had to speed up their
processes.
Everyone only realized they hadn’t eaten for the entire day when night fell and the delicious smell of
food wafted from the kitchen.
