169 The Valentine's Day Arc (25) : Mr. Liu makes his appearance

The announcement was accompanied with loud claps and cheers. When Ai had entered this Summit, she was eyed with disdain. But now, everybody held respect for her. It seemed as if the accident that had maligned her name was washed away with her victory.

Ai thanked Mrs. Qing from the bottom of her heart. "Thank you so much."

She nodded. "You deserve it. There are areas of improvement, but if you continue like this, there is nothing that could stop you from going higher."

She bowed. "I appreciate it."

Mrs. Qing then went over to Guiying's side and talked to her. "You did well, CherryBlossom. Don't let this night dishearten your spirit. Losing here doesn't mean you lost as a writer."

Guiying smiled. "Thank you, Mrs. Qing. It's more than enough that you appreciate my story."

Mrs. Qing nodded with satisfaction. As she left, Zhan Yahui expressionlessly said, "Let's go, Guiying."

"...You go ahead," she weakly said, "I will leave later."
