Outside the judging room.
As the fate-laden design drafts were sent in, the flow of time seemed to slow to a trickle.
Lu Xiaochen pinched the palm of her hand, unable to stop muttering, "Lingling, Lingling, how much time has passed? Why is there still no news?"
Ming Ge leaned back on the long bench in the rest area, dozing off with her eyes closed.
Sleepy, she heard Lu Xiaochen's voice and let out a lazy yawn, saying, "Hmm, 30 minutes, stay calm, no rush... "
Lu Xiaochen: "..."
The only person who could fall asleep at the competition site was probably Ming Ge.
Shen Qianqian looked over at her and gave a cold laugh.
Soon, an assistant stepped out, and everyone perked up, knowing that the initial test list was about to be announced.
