Chapter 358 - A Surprise From Fu Hua Bai Jun could only watch in envy as Linda took Jia Li to introduce her to the rest of the foreigners. Jia Li was polite but there was one arrogant one in their midst, she was a French that goes by the name, Marie. Jia Li learned from the introduction, that she has been the one leading in the competition. And no wonder she was kind of haughty. "Jia Li, don't think too much, Marie is very jovial when you get close to her." Linda said to her with a smile. Not long after, the people that they have been waiting for arrived and they all got seated. Sunny, Chyou and two other representatives, walked in to address their recruits. Sunny glanced at them and was surprised to see the familiar face. She was truly surprised to see Jia Li sitting in the last row. The only people that knew the real identities of the recruits, was their family members and the team that handled the competition, as for the creative director, she had no idea that JL was participating and because of the new nickname, she wasn't able to recognize her work. Chyou and the other two, were all smiles when they recognized Jia Li, as she has been the talk of the town a few times because of her creativity. Bai Jun noticed the gazes directed at Jia Li and squeezed her palms in hatred. She was thinking that the people in FJ must have known Jia Li's true identity as their Boss's wife and just want to treat her specially. Bai Jun was truly ignorant of the real reason that attention was given to Jia Li. Sunny called back everyone's attention when she started to speak. "Hello everyone, I am Sunny, the Chief Creative Director here in FJ. I and my colleagues are here to welcome you and to give you the basic knowledge you need to know about FJ." After introducing herself, Sunny gave room for her colleagues to introduce themselves. After that, Sunny asked the recruits to introduce themselves... their real names and their pen names. After the introduction, Sunny was speaking to them when Zimo knocked and walked in with a small envelope in his hand. Chyou saw him and walked up to him. "What brings you here, Mr. Zimo?" She asked with a polite smile. Zimo handed the envelope to her, saying, "This is an instruction from the Boss to Miss Sunny. Everything has been prepared." After saying that, he turned to walk away, leaving the surprised Chyou behind. When Sunny received the envelope, she opened it and took out a letter that contained Fu Hua's instructions. Sunny almost went crazy after reading the instructions but she was composed physically. Chyou felt that something was wrong and peeped to see what was written on the paper, she could hardly be composed like Sunny after reading it. Sunny had to address the recruits that were still getting to sign their contracts. "As we all know, FJ put up a notification before the start of this very competition that brought all of you together today. We said that there will only be 20 people, joining us from this competition. Currently, there are 30 of you here today and that means that 10 of you, have to leave." Sunny's words were like cold water pouring on the new fashion designers who seemed to be going crazy as well. At this point, Bai Jun couldn't sit at a place. She was tensed as she didn't have the confidence that she would make it to the Top 20. She has no idea about this, as Chyou didn't say anything. By looking at Chyou's surprised gaze, she could guess that none of them knew about this. "There is no need to panic if you know what you're doing," Sunny said to them. 'No wonder he said he would only congratulate me when I have signed the contract with FJ.' Jia Li thought. This new announcement really took all of them unawares, including the prideful ones. In no time, Sunny announced Fu Hua's instructions. "This instruction came straight from our Boss. You are asked to pick one of the designs you submitted in your application and illustrate it again, after that, you will be provided the materials to make the dress." Surprisingly, Bai Jun sighed in relief. Before, she was already plotting how she would bring Jia Li down if she doesn't make it. She was sure Jia Li would be dragged if she revealed that she was the wife of Fu Hua and that she got in because of his help. The confidence and the guts she has. Soon, some people walked in and passed some materials to them, so they could start designing immediately. Jia Li finally understood that Fu Hua has been giving her hints all this while. She understood that he couldn't say it directly and she held no grudges against him. 'Still, he should have said something.' Jia Li thought to herself. The new designers were given 30 minutes to put down their illustrations before they were sent to a very large workshop to start making their dresses. Zimo represented Fu Hua by staying in a watch. He would at times, come in to take a look and leave since he still has to serve Fu Hua. Zimo was not that surprised when he saw Jia Li. He was tempted to bow in greeting to her but he composed himself. As everyone went to their assigned position, they checked the materials they got and waited for the timer to start before they started working. 'Thank goodness my little bun wished me luck... who knows when I will be able to see her.' Jia Li thought with a sigh as she picked up a pencil and wrote down the measurements she would be working with. Fu Hua was in his office, watching the live footage from the large workshop where the 30 recruits were working. His gaze was solely on his wife, as he didn't bother to glance at any other person. As he still had much other important work to do, he had to turn off the footage and leave for an important meeting.
