"Mr. Allan was just saying that the game's already been called, no need for any extra hoo-ha. He also gave props to Ms. Keira's work, saying it's top-notch and if she keeps pushing, she's got a world of possibilities ahead of her! Hope Ms. Keira keeps her nose to the grindstone, and we're all keen to see how she rocks the international competition."
"I see."
"Yeah, the game's already called, no use crying over spilt milk. She got the silver, which is still a pretty sweet deal!"
"Absolutely, the key thing is the upcoming competition, that's the real clincher!"
"But looking at Allan's face and the tone of his voice earlier, he seemed pretty heated, didn't seem like he was singing Keira's praises."
"Well, he's a foreigner, and his demeanor's bound to be different from ours."
After Allan took off, the other judges didn't stick around, they quickly packed up their stuff and left the judge's booth.
Hearing Chloe's explanation, everyone loosened up.
Keira's tense expression faded when she heard these words.
"Keira, congrats, you've made it to the international competition."
"Yes, congrats. And Mr. Allan seems to have a high opinion of you, he's got high hopes for you!"
"Now I get why he gave you a 4.9, he probably meant that you're already brilliant, but there's still room for growth, and as long as you put in the effort, you can outdo anyone."
At this point, some reporters circled around Keira, "Congratulations Ms. Keira on making it to the international competition! Seems like Mr. Allan has high expectations for you! Do you have any ideas for your work in the international competition? Could you give us a sneak peek, like, what kind of emotions you want to express? Or where your inspiration comes from?"
