Chapter 1139 - 438: Spectacle (5-in-1)_5
"No worries."
Su Ming replied indifferently.
At this moment, the host from Shiva officially announced.
"I hereby declare that the winner of the interstellar beauty pageant’s women’s competition is Miss Helena!"
Instantly, all the spotlights shone on Helena.
Applause!
A warm round of applause erupted on site.
Helena walked over to the host from Shiva amidst the applause, and bowed to all the audience members watching the competition.
The host from Shiva proceeded to announce.
"The runner-up of the women’s competition is Miss Vivian!"
Vivian smiled as she walked forward, standing beside Helena.
"The third-place winner is Miss Midel!"
The host from Shiva continued to announce.
Midel’s eyes immediately welled up with tears, and she walked forward, extremely excited.
...
Su Ming glanced over, this Midel seemed to have no background, purely making it through the preliminary selection.
If it were just about appearance, she was actually no less than Helena and Vivian.
But as they say, beauty combined with any card is a winning hand; standing alone, it’s a dead end.
Soon enough, the host from Shiva concluded the award ceremony, officially announcing to everyone.
"The beauty pageant is over, thank you all for attending this...."
As Shiva announced, countless fireworks rose into the sky outside the venue, bursting into brilliant displays mid-air, marking the official end of the beauty pageant.
Numerous audience members exited laughing and talking, constantly discussing which female contestant was the prettiest and which male was the handsomest.
However, no one dared to discuss Helena and Vivian irresponsibly.
At this time, Helena descended from the podium, approached the group including Jyenis, and elegantly bowed, respectfully greeting them.
"Grandfather, Defendi, and also Grandfather Katjelo...."
"Helena, congratulations on winning the championship."
Defendi and others all praised.
"Thank you."
Helena replied with a radiant smile.
At this moment, Jyenis gave a small cough and said to Helena.
"Helena, let me introduce you, this is Mr. Su Ming!"
"Mr. Su Ming, hello!"
Helena greeted Su Ming politely.
"Miss Helena, hello!"
Su Ming also replied courteously.
"Mr. Su Ming, I wish to purchase that Level 6 Black Energy Crystal in your possession, how about the two of you head over to the garden at the back of the venue for a private chat?"
Jyenis said with a smile.
"Sure!"
Upon hearing grandfather’s words, Helena’s eyes flickered with a hint of surprise, but she promptly replied respectfully.
On the side, Defendi and others also displayed expressions of astonishment.
At this point, Jyenis turned to Su Ming and asked.
"Mr. Su Ming, what do you think?"
"Thank you, Lord Jyenis, we’ll excuse ourselves first then."
Su Ming replied politely.
"Go on, you young people will have more topics to discuss between each other."
Jyenis said with a smile.
Su Ming and Helena then paired up and headed towards the back door, with Su Yuan quickly following when he saw this.
But just as Su Yuan reached the back door, Jyenis’ subordinates extended their hands to halt him.
"Sorry sir, please hold back, so as not to disturb our young miss."
"Come on, aren’t they just discussing business? And I’m not allowed to go with them?"
Su Yuan said with a dark expression.
"No way!"
The group of brawny men replied very firmly.
"Fine, I won’t go then."
Su Yuan replied angrily.
He really wanted to burst out, but the Heinte family was one he simply could not afford to provoke.
On the other side, Su Ming and Helena arrived at the back garden, and the two strolled along the pebble-paved path.
Just as Su Ming was pondering how to start, Helena gracefully opened her mouth and asked.
"Mr. Su Ming, which family do you belong to?"
"I’m with the Thunder God Group."
Su Ming responded truthfully.
"So, the Su Family. May I ask how old you are, Mr. Su Ming, and where do you hold an esteemed position?"
Helena inquired softly.
Su Ming was a bit puzzled, but still responded.
"I’m 21 years old, serving at the Federation Military Department as a Vice Admiral."
Hearing Su Ming’s words, Helena’s eyes brightened slightly. A 21-year-old Vice Admiral was an unprecedented existence. She asked pleasantly.
"Mr. Su Ming, what are your usual interests?"
"I like mecha quite a lot, during leisure time I enjoy reading books on various weapons, other than that, I don’t really have many interests."
Su Ming thought for a moment and replied.
"Sounds nice, I’m 23 years old, graduated from the Command System at Saint Joex-Satiras Prestige Academy, and I’m also very interested in mecha."
Helena began chatting with Su Ming with laughter.
...
At this moment, Xia Lan dragged Vivian to the back garden. She saw Su Ming and Helena walking and chatting there, then stopped and said.
"Su Ming and Helena are talking, let’s go over later."
Vivian gazed at Su Ming and Helena, her eyes gleaming with a peculiar light, then spoke up.
"This isn’t right."
"Seventh sister, what isn’t right? Isn’t Su Ming just talking to Helena about some matters?"
Xia Lan questioned Vivian, feeling puzzled.
"Su Ming is meeting Helena to discuss matters, but Helena and Su Ming are not discussing matters, they’re on a date."
Vivian said to Xia Lan.
"No way, right?"
"Why not? Have you ever seen Jyenis Clan Leader letting Helena be alone with any other male all these years?"
"But, didn’t Helena say she didn’t want to date?"
"That’s right, but that was when she hadn’t met someone suitable. If she met the right one, would she not date? At our level, although we seem to be high and above, isn’t it extremely difficult to find someone who is our equal, and also outstanding?"
