The scene was a bit chaotic, but under Liu Mei"s initiative and rhythm, everyone"s eyes were focused on the speechless Xia Xin Xin on the stage. From the start of the compet.i.tion, there were introductions of a few designers, each of which were talented and had quite a few achievements, which was why the people on stage were looking forward to it.
But now, Xia Xinxin"s design had actually suffered a terrible accident and had even hit a spot. It was truly unbelievable.
"Xia Xinyan, explain yourself." Liu Mei liked to see Xia Xinxin"s panicked expression. If it wasn"t for the crowd of guests and reporters, she would have laughed out loud happily.
Xia Chen Xin looked over to Liu Chengtian, who frowned and used his eyes to ask her.
Xia Xinyan bit her lips, and since there was no way out, she could only bite the bullet and reply: "These few pieces of work were conceived two years ago. I"m sure that there is no plagiarism, and as for why there are now cases of people b.u.mping into clothes, I will definitely investigate them and give everyone an explanation."
"Hahaha, what you said was really nice. You"re already in trouble, and you still suspect that someone is harming you? Xia Xinyan thought, you have to be conscientious, everyone can see that. With just a few words of yours, you want to make the past clear? Are you an idiot to be the audience? I seriously suspect that you have copied the works of someone else. " Liu Mei wouldn"t let Xia Xinyi off easily, so she started to bring up a rhythm to make Xia Xinxin feel embarra.s.sed.
Xia Xinyan was not stupid, she could already tell that Liu Mei was targeting her. After confirming that she did not copy the work, she calmly a.n.a.lyzed that her work had been leaked.
The host was also dumbfounded, because plagiarism was a serious event in the design world. Besides, it was a live broadcast on the stage today. It would not end well if something like this happened.
Seeing that Xia Xin had nothing to say, he directly went up to the stage, took the microphone from Xia Xin"s hand and said with a smile: "As the person in charge of Kalan International, I choose to believe in my company"s staff. She is a virtuous, virtuous, and upright woman, and I am personally inclined to copy this matter, after all, this is a compet.i.tion, I won"t say for sure about the amount of insider information we have in the industry, but there are some healthy compet.i.tion that ca
ot deny that someone is involved in this mess. Our company will a
ounce the withdrawal of this compet.i.tion, but today"s matter, we will definitely not let this matter rest."
As the boss of the company, Liu Chengtian stood on the stage to explain the situation to Xia Xinyi. It was true that it made many people look at him in a new light, and the sounds of ridicule lessened by quite a bit.
Xia Xinyan gratefully looked at Liu Chengtian, who patted her shoulder and said, "Let"s go back."
"Sorry, CEO Liu, it was my mistake." Xia Xinyan felt extremely guilty, and her eyes turned red.
"I believe you. I definitely won"t copy it." Liu Chengtian said with certainty.
Even if Xia Xinyan was unwilling, she could only choose to withdraw from the compet.i.tion. Everyone from Kalan International left.
Liu Mei was filled with pride. She could finally let out a sigh of relief, making Xia Xinyan feel embarra.s.sed in front of everyone.
Xia Shu Ran, who was watching the entire broadcast, also smiled. He must have learnt his lesson this time.
The match continued after a few minutes.
Xia Xinxin was sitting in the car. She covered her face with her hands and tried to hold back her tears. At this moment, her phone rang.
When she saw the name of Ji Mu City, she felt extremely wronged.
She wiped the tears from her eyes and held the phone to her ear.
"Where are you? Are you all right? " Ji Mu Cheng didn"t ask anything and just wanted to comfort her.
"You know? This is too embarra.s.sing. " Xia Xinyan bit her lips. Just now on stage, her mind was completely blank. In her many years of working here, she had never encountered such a predicament. She had always been full of confidence, but today, such a blow made her somewhat discouraged.
"It"s not at all shameful. There is a vicious compet.i.tion in every line of business. Since someone is trying to stir up trouble, I will definitely help you find it. Don"t cry, come over to my place." Ji Mu Cheng"s voice was extremely gentle, comforting her and giving her immense courage.
"I really didn"t copy it, I ?? I don"t know how it could have happened. " Xia Xin still felt uncomfortable and wanted to explain.
"I know, come to my office. I"ll wait for you at the door." After Ji Mu Cheng finished comforting him, he hung up the phone.
He was afraid that she would refuse to see him, so he would not give her a chance to speak again.
Xia Xinyan felt a little better and the stuffy feeling she had just felt also disappeared.
Even if she lost the match, she seemed to have won something. It was a man"s love and care for her, and it warmed her heart more than anything else.
Xia Xin apologized to Liu Chengtian again. She felt guilty for messing things up.
Liu Chengtian believed in her, moreover, Xia Xinyan didn"t need to destroy the signboard, this must be a trap set up by someone.
Xia Xin hated the person who stole her design, so she would definitely find her.
Xia Xinxin sat in the company"s car and headed towards Ji"s headquarters.
At that moment, while Xia Shuran was happily dancing in his room, she suddenly heard her cell phone ring.
She walked over to take a look and saw that it was He Jiaxuan. Her good mood immediately stopped.
If it was before, when they were on good terms, she would have used her most gentle voice to speak to him, and would even act coquettishly. But now, Xia Shu Ran had already treated him as a heartless person.
"What"s the matter?" Xia Shu Ran coldly asked him.
"Xia Shu Ran, did you do anything to Xia Xinyan?" He Jiaxuan directly asked her.
"He Jiaxuan, what do you mean?" Xia Shu Ran"s expression changed drastically as he shouted into his phone with a sharp voice, "You were also paying attention to her compet.i.tion, right? "He Jiaxuan, I didn"t expect you to be so bored. You"re such a great man. In the past, you even refused to do anything when I asked you to buy clothes with me. But now, you"re actually concerned about her fas.h.i.+on show?"
"Don"t change the subject. I just want to ask you, were you the one who did this?" He Jiaxuan coldly asked her.
"Why do you suspect me? What did I do wrong? Do you want to think of me like that? " Xia Shu Ran"s emotions collapsed again. Although she was the one who did it, she felt that her husband shouldn"t have questioned her first.
"I don"t suspect you. I just know you too well." He Jiaxuan laughed coldly, "I know what kind of person you are, so I don"t think it"s strange at all for you to do such a thing."
"He Jiaxuan, in your eyes, I"ve always been a bad woman, right? So that"s what you thought of me. Now, are you going to tell me that you didn"t love me from the start, that you loved Xia Xinyao, and that white moonlight? You knew that I had a bad heart, and you only took a fancy to my family background, you b.a.s.t.a.r.d. " Xia Shu Ran roared in anger and resentment.
