Chapter 433 - Little Angel Plagiarized? 2

The organizers gave a dry laugh. “Are you going to just brush this off so easily by saying that you sent the wrong designs? Miss Shen Lin, I heard that on your previous Jewelry Competition, the judges had questioned the originality of your works and suspected you of plagiarism. What a coincidence! This time, you sent the wrong designs? What’s more, there are three plagiarized designs. Okay, let me ask you. Guan Xiaoman’s wedding designs are from one of BG’s private designers abroad. Why is it saved in your email? You had actually sent the wrong designs out for such an important competition?”

Lu Mengxi, who was sitting under the stage, was rather surprised. This was clearly something that would badly affect a lot of matters.

She furrowed her eyebrows and tried to guide Shen Lin. “Miss Shen, since you said that you had sent the wrong designs, then where did these designs come from? Did someone copy BG’s designs from abroad?”

Shen Lin’s eyes glowed up. Right, she could push all the blame on Shen Qianshu.

“These works were designed by my sister, Shen Qianshu. Although she is an appraiser, she occasionally uses my laptop to design some works. Sometimes she also likes to draw from other’s designs and copy them. Maybe she liked these designs, so she put it on my laptop. When I was sending the designs, I sent the wrong one. I didn’t know that she would copy other’s works. Dear organizers and judges, I am so sorry. I am a designer with integrity, and I would never do such actions. I’m sorry for causing damage to BG’s designs, and I apologize on behalf of my sister. She just likes the designs. She could mean no harm. I’m so sorry!”

Lu Mengxi asked, “So... Shen Qianshu plagiarized?”

Shen Lin pretended to be the best sister in the world and said, “No, no... She could just be drawing it for fun. My sister is not a jewelry designer. She’s just a jewelry appraiser. It’s my fault... It’s my fault...”

When these words came out of her mouth, everyone was in shock.

The hesitant way in which she spoke made it seem more like Shen Qianshu had indeed plagiarized.

Shen Lin had shrewdly pushed all the blame onto Shen Qianshu.

Shen Qianshu was furious. She wanted to scream at people, and her face was really dark. She was just about to say something when she received a call from Chen Wanwan. “Qianshu, have you seen the TTF Competition this season? Shen Lin used your designs and even accused you of plagiarism! Don’t worry, I’ll make a call to the organizers and explain clearly to them that you are Sara...”

Ye Ling grabbed the phone over. “No. There’s no need for an explanation. Just tell the organizers that we will have a public confrontation. Tomorrow, have TTF’s judges, appraisers, Shen Lin, the director of BG, and Shen Qianshu come together and have a public confrontation. Then, you will explain to the organizers clearly. We will have this on live-stream to show that our conscience is clear. Do not mention Shen Qianshu the entire time.”

Chen Wanwan and Ye Ling seldom interacted. She could not make out his voice and felt that it was a little strange. This was a really simple matter that could be easily dealt with, yet why was there a need to make things so complicated? Why did this have to go to court? Chen Wanwan found it hard to understand.

After Ye Ling finished speaking, he passed the phone to Shen Qianshu.

Shen Qianshu took it and said, “Sis Wanwan, public confrontation it shall be.”

“Who was that speaking to me?”

“I’ll tell you another day.”

Shen Lin was still speaking on stage. “When I was born, Shen Qianshu and I were brought home by the wrong people in the hospital. Shen Qianshu was brought home by my biological parents, and they raised her for fifteen years while I became an orphan, abandoned in an orphanage. Until one day, when I was fifteen, mom and dad realized that Shen Qianshu was not their biological child. Then, they brought me home. Shen Qianshu and I became sisters with no blood relation. My younger sister has always been interested in jewelry design, and she learned jewelry designing in school. Sometimes we would discuss designing, and sometimes we would make some works. I’m willing to bear the consequences for all the damage I had caused by this unfortunate incident. Please do not blame my younger sister.”
