Chapter 110: Is She Going to Compete Too?

~7 min read 1,344 words

The organizers of the International Huahui Bolanhui actually sent an invitation to Gu Mianmian, and they even invited Gu Mianmian to participate in the flower competition at this exhibition, which truly surprised Gu Wenyan.

Given Gu Mianmian's planting level, participating in this kind of exhibition... she would be at most at the level of a participant, and the fact that she even received an invitation made Gu Wenyan feel it was unbelievable.

But she did indeed hear Gu Mianmian mention this matter at home.

Previously, Gu Wenyan had also received an invitation, but she was not interested, so she had not yet replied to the organizers.

"I only recently discovered the joy of planting flowers, so I'm planning to go take a look. Big Brother, will you go with me? This exhibition should have many rare flowers and plants! Shall we go together?"

Gu Yechen had not expected that it would actually be Gu Mianmian going to participate in the International Huahui Bolanhui.

Hearing Gu Mianmian say there would be many rare plants at the venue, especially orchids, he was actually somewhat interested.

Especially... Gu Yechen thought about how many of the flowers and plants Gu Wenyan had previously grown had been destroyed; if he went to the exhibition and could encounter the types of plants Gu Wenyan liked, he could also buy some rare seeds that were usually hard to come by.

Just as Gu Yechen was about to nod, he saw Gu Wenyan's figure.

He smiled: "You're back?"

Gu Wenyan nodded and asked indifferently: "Gu Mianmian, you received an invitation too?"

"Yes, Sister. Because I've been influenced by you recently, I've come to like it quite a bit... so I looked up a lot of information on this subject and also got in touch with some rather impressive seniors in the industry. Seeing that I was so interested, they took the initiative to offer to send me an invitation so I could participate."

So that was it; she had said as much—with Gu Mianmian's own ability and lack of any fame, it was impossible for the exhibition to send her such an invitation.

Those who could participate in the competition this time were basically top figures in the industry, but... if Gu Mianmian wanted to go, let her go; it didn't conflict with her.

But just as Gu Wenyan was about to nod, she heard Gu Mianmian say: "It's a pity, Sister, those flowers you grew are all gone. It's such a shame... this time you can't go participate with me and Big Brother."

Gu Mianmian smiled innocently and simply again: "But don't worry, Sister, if I come across any flowers or plants you like at the venue, I will definitely find a way to buy them and give them to you!"

"It's no big deal not to participate in this exhibition."

"That's true, but I heard there will be many new award categories being judged this year... and it will be broadcast globally in real-time. Many people are particularly interested. I'm just a beginner, so I'm definitely just joining in on the fun." Gu Mianmian blinked, "Unlike you, Sister. It's a pity... if your flowers were still around, you would definitely be able to win an award."

Gu Wenyan felt that there was a hint of mockery in Gu Mianmian's words.

Therefore, she suddenly wanted to change her mind.

Why shouldn't she participate herself?

Just giving this opportunity to Gu Mianmian for free.

If Gu Mianmian really won an award, it would just benefit her.

And... if she herself won an important award at this exhibition while Gu Mianmian ended up empty-handed, what would Gu Mianmian's reaction be? It was easy to imagine.

Gu Wenyan loved seeing Gu Mianmian show expressions of extreme jealousy and anger.

"Actually, it's not that difficult to participate; it just depends on whether the flowers I'm growing now can bloom in time."

Gu Mianmian looked skeptical: "That shouldn't be possible, right? How could it be so fast... Sister, even if you are good at growing flowers, you couldn't possibly be that fast. You should wait until next year; I think you'll be able to participate by next year, and there definitely won't be any problems then!"

Gu Wenyan just looked at Gu Mianmian, who had a hidden smugness in her eyes, with a half-smile, and said nothing more.

Whether she could participate or not was not for Gu Mianmian to decide.

"Big Brother, I'm going upstairs to rest."

Gu Wenyan nodded in acknowledgment, walked straight past them to the upper floor, and then opened the account she had previously used for live streaming.

She found the person who had sent her a private message and replied: 【I can participate.】

Although Gu Wenyan hadn't streamed for a while, especially after all her flowers were destroyed, she hadn't been in the mood to stream for the time being.

However, the fans she had accumulated previously had already reached a very impressive number in a short period of time.

Of course, the International Exhibition needed a planting master with enough popularity like Gu Wenyan to participate, so upon receiving Gu Wenyan's reply, they were also very excited: "Okay, okay! I will send you another invitation! Please pay attention to checking for the specific time and location when it arrives!"

Because Gu Wenyan didn't know where she had thrown the invitation that was sent before, fortunately, the organizers were very cooperative.

Gu Mianmian... I grow flowers and you grow flowers, what are you trying to do? Do you think I don't know...

Isn't it just that you want to snatch away all the advantages I excel at and try to follow suit?

It's a pity that now... you don't have such good luck anymore.

When the new work week arrived, just as Gu Wenyan and Gu Yechen were about to set off in the morning, Gu Mianmian, dressed in a little dress, suddenly appeared: "Big Brother! Sister! Can I go to the company with you?"

Gu Yechen asked in confusion: "What are you going to the company for?"

Gu Mianmian pouted: "Sister can go to the company to work, so I want to go take a look too. Anyway, I'll be graduating soon... and it's boring just idling at home."

"You want to go take a look? If you have that intention, you can go to the company to see if there are any positions suitable for you."

"Okay, okay! Thank you, Big Brother!"

Gu Wenyan didn't say anything. If she wants to go, let her go. Isn't it just about competing on work ability? What's the big deal? She didn't feel she couldn't outcompete Gu Mianmian.

Gu Mianmian asked about many details regarding Gu Yechen going to the company along the way, and Gu Yechen was also very patient, even though he usually would have processed some of today's work in advance at this time.

He was, after all, still doting on this younger sister.

Gu Wenyan looked out the window without speaking, letting Gu Mianmian chatter on and on.

Finally arriving at Gu Group, Gu Wenyan was the first to push open the car door and get out, even thinking to herself...

If Gu Mianmian wanted to take the same car to the company with them tomorrow, then she would just drive the car that Gu Yeting had given her at the time.

Maybe she could have some peace and quiet; at least she wouldn't have to hear Gu Mianmian's annoying voice.

Gu Yeting never expected that the car he had been ignored... might actually gain favor for such a reason.

Gu Mianmian showed that she was particularly interested in the company; even though it wasn't her first time here, she acted as if she had never been, pestering Gu Yechen and not giving Gu Wenyan any chance to communicate with him.

Gu Wenyan couldn't be bothered to say anything; she calmed her mind and went straight to the Marketing Department.

Not long after, Gu Mianmian actually followed her and appeared at the entrance of the Marketing Department.
