Overnight, the internet exploded.

Firstly, the feud between Yun Chu and Gu Corporation was resolved.
This was the first collaboration between the two parties.
Gu Corporation had bought Yun Chu’s design draft Returning Dream’ from three years ago and would use it as the company’s first jewelry piece for the next quarter.

On the other hand, although Yao Mengging did not win the championship, her and Jason’s jewelry was going to be put into production and sold as the main product of Sunshine.
Jason was also said to be Yun Chu’s disciple.

As for the last piece of news.

In the moming, Qiao Xi was woken up by the noisy ringing of her phone.

Li Xing‘er’s anxious voice came from the phone.
“You’re still in the mood to sleep at a time like this? Jason… and Yao Mengging are going to sue you!”

Qiao Xi’s gaze was muddled, and her mind was still in chaos.

Li Xing‘er gritted her teeth in anger.
“Jason said that your work that won the championship in the competition was plagiarized from his previous design draft, so he wants to sue you! Where did he get his confidence from? If he could design such a perfect piece of work, he wouldn’t have lost the

competition!”

Qiao Xi’s eyes gradually became clear.

This was going to be interesting.
She had yet to settle scores with Yao Mengqing and Jason, but they had turned on her first?

Qiao Xi logged into her account and saw a bunch of messages in her private inbox.

She opened Jason’s Weibo and frowned.

There were two photos recently posted on his Weibo.
One was a design sketch provided by Jason, while the other was a piece of jewelry designed by Qiao Xi during the competition.
There were indeed many similarities between the two photos.
From the design concept and color tone, they looked very

similar.

Jason’s design draft was published in ‘International Design Record Magazine’ three years ago.

Jason had also attached a caption to the photos—

[I wasn’t satisfied with this design draft at first, but the person in charge of the magazine approached me, hoping that he could publish my design draft.
Hence, I handed the completed design draft to him.
Probably because this magazine isn’t very famous, many people haven’t read it, giving Miss Qiao a

chance to plagiarize it.

[But coincidentally, I also participated in the competition this time.
The first time I saw her jewelry, I felt that it looked familiar.
After I went back and thought about it carefully, I decided to announce the truth of this matter.
I hope that the competition’s organizers will revoke Miss Qiao’s title as

champion as her work was plagiarized.
She doesn’t deserve to be the champion!]

Li Xing’er was worried.
“Qiao Xi, he took out a design draft and said you plagiarized.
Who knows if his design draft was really published three years ago?”

“Yes,” Qiao Xi replied calmly, “I’ve looked into it.
Three years ago, the person in charge of International Design Record Magazine accepted his design draft.”

Li Xing‘er asked anxiously, “Then…”

“But I drew this design draft four years ago.”

Qiao Xi smiled meaningfully.
“Although I haven’t released it anywhere, I can prove that the design draft is mine.”

The biggest taboo in the world of design was plagiarism.
Plagiarizing something that another had created with their own inspiration was no different than stealing their soul.
Therefore, everyone found plagiarism to be a shameful thing, especially now that a famous designer like Jason was accusing Qiao

Xi of plagiarism.
If she did not have evidence to prove her innocence, she would not be able to turn the situation around.

But she was Yun Chu!

Jason was digging his own grave!

Not long after, the person in charge of the International Jewelry Design Competition called and asked about Qiao Xi’s work.

Qiao Xi did not give a clear explanation.
Instead, she asked indifferently, “Is this regarding Mr.
Jason’s appeal to revoke my title as champion? You’re saying that there’ll be a press conference tomorrow where famous designers will come together to boycott plagiarism, so you want me to explain the origin

of my work?”

“Yes, that’s right,” the person in charge said.

Qiao Xi didn’t hesitate in the slightest.
“Il attend.”

After hanging up, Qiao Xi turned on her computer and logged into Black Tide’s account.

Although her design draft was not released anywhere, there would be records of it on the computer.

Some things could not be faked.
Even though four years had passed, she could still find evidence.

The next day.

At the press conference, Yao Mengqing and Jason sat in front of the stage, their faces full of grief and anger.

“Tve been in the design industry for so many years, but this is the first time I’ve seen such an arrogant designer.
I had already gone on stage, yet she still dared to copy my work..
Did she think I wouldn’t remember my own work from three years ago?”
