“I’ll try.”

Wen Ruo did not know whether her attempt would work her not. However, there was no harm in trying. Even if they did not write a letter of recommendation for her, she had nothing to lose in the first place.

To her pleasant surprise, when the other person realized that she was related to Wen Nuan, they readily agreed to help her.

And thus, Wen Ruo successfully got a letter of recommendation.

When she got home, Wen Ruo told her mother about the good news.

Cai Qinyue was genuinely happy for her daughter: “Once you rank highly in the competition, no one will question your abilities in the future.”

“Mhmm..”

“We will let them all know that Wen Ruo is the most talented designer in the Wen family.”

After speaking to her mother for a while, Wen Ruo said that she was going to go upstairs to review content related to the design of jewelry.

Although the design of jewelry was not Wen Ruo’s main area of study, she had studied it during university.

In her room, Wen Ruo drew up several designs.

However, every time she drew a design, she quickly scrunched it up.

By the time Cai Qinyue visited her, the floor of Wen Ruo’s room was already filled with paper balls.

“What’s wrong?” Cai Qinyue asked. She sensed that her daughter was not in a good mood.

“Nothing,” Wen Ruo replied. She did not want to tell her mother that she didn’t feel any inspiration.

“Mother, I’m going to the attic to look for inspiration.”

There were many old things in the Wen family’s attics. A lot of items had been passed down by their ancestors for hundreds of years.

And thus, Wen Ruo wanted to find design inspiration from these items.

“Okay, I will get you the key from the drawer.”

Then, Cai Qinyue handed the key of the attic to Wen Ruo.

There were a lot of things locked up in the attic. Typically, their servants were not allowed to go inside the attic to help them clean up the space. Instead, Wen Cheng handled the cleaning by himself.

As Wen Ruo was going through old items, she suddenly found numerous old design drafts.

After flicking through the pages, Wen Ruo was surprised to find that all of them of drawings of jewelry.

Wen Nuan had drawn these designs before she got married.

Back then, Wen Nuan showed a lot of talent in this area.

When she was younger, Wen Nuan would draw designs in her spare time.

However, she did not take these designs with her when she got married. Instead, she left her design drafts in a box in the attic.

1

And thus, these designs were from decades ago.

Despite that, even after so many years, these designs did not appear out of date.

Unknowingly, Wen Ruo stayed in the attic until late. Cai Qinyue had to come upstairs to call for her.

“Wen Ruo, it’s time to rest.”

When she saw her mother, Wen Ruo subconsciously hid the stack of designs behind her back.

“Okay.”

Then, Wen Ruo got up. She placed the stack of designs in an old book and took it out of the attic.

Wen Nuan received an invitation from the international jewelry design competition.

When Jian Yunnao saw the invitation, he was incredibly happy for his mother: “Mother, apparently only renowned jewelry designers are invited to this competition!”

After Wen Nuan’s display of talent at XDL’s fashion show, she was now considered to be a famous and renowned designer.

Wen Nuan thought about it for a while before she decided to enter the competition.

After it, it was not about your ranking, it was about participating.

And thus, Jian Yunnao accompanied his mother to the competition location.

The judges for such a competition were all internationally renowned designers.

Major brands and the media also attended this competition.

At the competition location, Wen Nuan ran into Wen Ruo.

Wen Ruo was accompanied by Cai Qinyue.

When Cai Qinyue saw Wen Nuan, she asked with mockery: “Oh? You’re here as well? Who wrote the letter of recommendation for you?”

Wen Nuan replied with a bright and dignified smile on her face: “I don’t need a letter of recommendation.
