Chapter 427 -427 Qiao Yun is Mocked
The man, whose face had been slighted by a young girl, said irritably, “So what if I touched it?”
Qiao Yun’s voice was cool and calm, “Rules are rules, the exhibited works are not to be touched without permission. You touched it, you violated the rules, you’re disqualified from the competition.”
“Who do you think you are!”
The man sneered, “Is the Star Cup organized by your family? Such arrogance at such a young age, truly a young lady out of touch with reality. Did Lu Shiran bring you into the team just to win with your face?”
“Show some respect to my sister!”
Lu Shiran stood in front of Qiao Yun, fiercely protective, “Apologize to my sister, or believe me, I will beat you up!”
“Apologize!” Yu Fan and Cheng Yi also immediately stood in front of Qiao Yun, firmly protecting her.
Qiao Yun blinked in surprise, looking at the three human walls in front of her and obediently stood behind them, being protected like a decorative vase.

“So she’s your sister, no wonder she can participate in the Star Cup without any skills, you rich people really do whatever you want.”
The man didn’t want to apologize; he didn’t think he said anything wrong.
How could someone involved in years of research have such tender hands unless she was completely inept? If it’s not relying on her face, what is it?
In fact, Qiao Yun didn’t care much about skincare, but she had students with hearts like doting old mothers, who even started a project for the sake of her hands.
They developed a very effective hand cream and, worried that Qiao Yun might find it bothersome to use, specifically made it with a fragrance she liked.
Now this hand cream, specifically developed for Qiao Yun, had become a hot commodity.
“My sister participated on her own merit. You can question me, but you can’t question my sister!”
Lu Shiran rubbed his fists, looking fiercely intimidating, “Are you jealous that I’m rich and can do whatever I want? This time, I’ll show you exactly what I can do!”
He had relied on his own skill to develop his work, yet these people accused him of buying his skill with money.
He had held back!
Someday, he would prove it to them.
But he couldn’t tolerate them bullying his sister!
When the young master got angry, it was indeed terrifying.
The man grew a bit frightened, suppressing his fear he said, “If you dare to hit me, I’ll report you, and then you’ll be the one disqualified from the competition.”
“No fighting.” Qiao Yun held Lu Shiran’s hand, urging him not to be impulsive.
Lu Shiran deflated and said, “But he mocked you.”
“It doesn’t matter.” Qiaon Yun stated earnestly, “Defeat him, and consider it my revenge.”
Upon hearing this, Lu Shiran thought it was a good idea.
He turned to the smug man, his voice laced with malice, “Good, you’ve successfully aroused my competitive spirit, tomorrow I’ll make sure you kneel and call me daddy.”
The man: “…”
He laughed with a snort, “With that piece of work? Has anyone even come to see your work after all this time? Seems like having money can’t always get you what you want.”
That was right on the sore spot.
Lu Shiran felt a nameless sense of frustration, and sympathy for Qiao Yun.
His sister had put in the most effort, yet no one appreciated it, such a lack of taste!
Just then, a girl walked over and asked cautiously, “Um, are you Lu Zhanxing’s sister?”
Qiao Yun looked over with a cool gaze and nodded, “Mhm.”
The girl was thrilled, tentatively asking, “I’ve seen the variety show you were on and really liked you, can I have your autograph?”
Being so polite, Qiao Yun naturally wouldn’t refuse and signed her name with ease.
Some others who recognized Qiao Yun also gathered around.
“Can we also have your autograph?”
Seeing their sincerity, Qiao Yun agreed, “Okay.”
Lu Shiran was shocked by the enthusiasm of the crowd and hadn’t expected his sister to be so popular.
“Lu bro, your sister is that famous?”
Cheng Yi and Yu Fan, being techies, didn’t follow the entertainment industry and thus were unaware that Qiao Yun had participated in variety shows.
The frustration Lu Shiran felt earlier had vanished, and he boasted proudly, “Of course, she is. Who else’s sister would she be?”
At first, when he suggested using his sister as a mascot, he was joking, but it turned out she really was a mascot. Because of his sister, they had attracted so much attention.
At a glance, they seemed to be the most popular exhibitors among all the contestants.
“Sorry, we’re busy and don’t have time to entertain you. Please go back to wherever you came from,” Lu Shiran said to the man, chuckling coldly.
With his face ashen, the man tried to save face, “Playing to the gallery, getting cocky just because you have some popularity. The Star Cup is about skill, not popularity, what does it matter if you have people’s attention.”
Lu Shiran was not angry at all now, even feeling a bit like Buddha himself, “No worries, tomorrow I’ll let you know what real skill is. Now please leave, or I will report you for attempting to steal our technology.”
The man could only gnash his teeth in jealousy and envy as he returned to his booth.
He Jianyan glanced at the man who was full of indignation and then looked towards Lu Shiran, frowning deeply.
Had the Lu Family hired crowd actors just to give Lu Shiran and Qiao Yun face?
Hmph, her disdain grew. Couldn’t they manage without relying on their family?
…
In the afternoon, there was a speech.
It was to introduce the concept of the robots.
Lu Shiran was the speaker. Before going on stage, he was trembling, “What if I don’t do well?”
“Don’t be scared; you can do it,” Qiao Yun reassured him.
“I can do it, I’ll be fine,” Lu Shiran tried to hypnotize himself. But once on stage, he transformed, starting his speech with full confidence.
It was as if he was meant to walk this path all along.
Qiao Yun watched Lu Shiran, who seemed to be glowing, her gaze softening.
She hoped Lu Shiran would be happy and wanted him to do what he loved, so she was willing to help him out.
The path of scientific research is tough, and she wanted to help Lu Shiran avoid any missteps.
The speech went smoothly, and Lu Shiran received applause from everyone.
After stepping down, he reverted to his carefree self, “Sis, was I handsome or what?”
Qiao Yun praised him, “Handsome.”
“That’s the only thing you’re good at,” the previously provoking man came back, “wait to lose tomorrow.”
Lu Shiran looked at him arrogantly, “That’s my line.”
Watching them leave the venue with smug expressions, the man cursed under his breath, “Giving such a good speech, maybe even the script was ghostwritten. Money really can do wonders.”
“I have money too,” He Jianyan gave him a cold look, somewhat disliking his jealous sneer at the wealthy.
The man’s expression changed, and he said ingratiatingly, “You’re different, you have money, but you also have the skills. Can Lu Shiran’s sister compare to you?”
He Jianyan didn’t dwell on the matter and said, “What’s the use of talking so much with them? Wait until the competition tomorrow, we’ll let our skills do the convincing.”
“Just watch how I’ll crush them.”
…
Sunday, the robotics confrontation officially began.
