CHAPTER 175: CHAPTER 175: TWO BIRDS WITH ONE STONE (6)

A few seconds later, a faint sound of footsteps echoed in the corridor, and a few girls pushed the door open and entered, including Yu Xiaoqin.

Qiao Mo squinted slightly, saying nothing.

Yu Xiaoqin glanced at Qiao Mo indifferently, snorting coldly, as if she didn’t see her, surprisingly not looking for trouble this time.

"Qiao Mo... morning!"

Someone greeted her, and Qiao Mo returned with a smile. Before she could speak, someone with sharp eyes noticed Shen Tingting’s wardrobe not closed tightly and the scattered fabric on the floor...

Instinctively, they looked at Qiao Mo. Although they didn’t speak, there was a hint of suspicion in their eyes.

Qiao Mo observed their reactions, saying nothing, and Yu Xiaoqin, who had been relatively quiet, suddenly shouted angrily, "Qiao Mo, what are you doing?"

As soon as she spoke, Shen Tingting entered the classroom with a few other classmates.

Upon entering, Shen Tingting noticed her slightly open wardrobe door and frowned.

She walked quickly to it and swung the door open.

The cabinet was already a mess, and as soon as it was opened, an equestrian outfit slashed by scissors fell out.

Seeing the clothes dropping at her feet, Shen Tingting staggered slightly, as if greatly shocked, her eyes bloodshot.

Qiao Mo’s brow slightly furrowed, a glint of insight flashing in her eyes, realizing she guessed correctly—it was indeed that equestrian outfit!

"Who? Who did this! Who on earth did this!"

Shen Tingting clutched the equestrian outfit tightly, glaring angrily at everyone.

Nobody seemed to have seen the usually pure and gentle Shen Tingting suddenly erupt in fury, and everyone in the classroom took two steps back involuntarily.

Only Qiao Mo remained still, quietly watching Shen Tingting.

In fact, she could understand her anger at that moment.

After all, with only two days left until the competition’s qualification deadline, Shen Tingting suffered a setback at the critical moment; how could she not be upset?

"Who did this? Are you all mute?"

"Tingting... calm down first, check if this is your outfit," a classmate kindly suggested.

"Shut up! I’ve been designing this outfit for days—wouldn’t I recognize my own work?"

The surrounding fell even quieter, but no one blamed Shen Tingting. Understandably, her mood was off after encountering such a mishap before the competition.

Before long, a classmate couldn’t help but say, "Tingting, calm down first, think carefully whether you locked the cabinet before you left..."

"Yeah... when we came in, your cabinet door was open... except... except Qiao Mo was also here."

Someone spoke, their voice weakening a bit at the end, casting an uneasy glance at Qiao Mo.

Shen Tingting paused, her eyes red as she looked at Qiao Mo, tightly clenching her lips and said through gritted teeth, "Qiao Mo—!"

Yu Xiaoqin immediately chimed in, "Qiao Mo, I never thought you could be so despicable to resort to such tactics!"

Qiao Mo chuckled, ignoring Yu Xiaoqin. Indeed, it was rare to see Shen Tingting so out of control.

But then again, each round of this competition invited industry bigwigs, with significant opportunities hidden in every round. Even if one didn’t make it to Milan Fashion Week, just winning the top positions in the early rounds could still bring fame!

Moreover, should they earn the favor of any designer, it would be like reaching for the stars in one step!

"Do you really think it was me?" Qiao Mo chuckled lightly.
