Chapter 1234: Making A False Counter-charge

Meng Qi maintained the vibes of a n.o.ble and indiscernible master who fooled around. He had the look of ‘I don’t know about the disputes amongst you women’. Shen Qianshu felt interested as she watched. The discussion was not considered to be smooth this time when she came to the jewelry a.s.sociation.
In the end, she did not manage to get a hold of the video of the compet.i.tion back then. It was said that the video was damaged. The backup text from back then also could not be found. The president of the jewelry a.s.sociation was a benevolent and kind-looking elderly person who apologized repeatedly.
Shen Qianshu smiled slightly. “Not a problem. Old folk, one less video will not have much effect on my court case. Out of the three pieces of work that Megan plagiarized, I have obtained the compet.i.tion videos for two of the works. It does not matter much that I am unable to obtain the video of one work. I will speak the truth in court. After all, it has been seven years. It is also excusable that you all did not keep it.”
The elderly person smiled. It was unknown whether he was embarra.s.sed or anything. There were some things which he could not say. Meng Qi said calmly, “The jewelry compet.i.tions will be auto-kept in the ATT system for 10 years before they are being covered. Don’t you know about this at all?”
“… ” Shen Qianshu was shocked.
She really did not know.
The president said, “Unfortunately, the videos in the system have really gone missing. We also did not leave any archives. Megan and Bailey had also come over and asked to confirm that we do not have the archives.”
Shen Qianshu and Meng Qi came out from the jewelry a.s.sociation and were greeted by Paris’s brilliant sunlight. Shen Qianshu did not have a good premonition. She brought Meng Qi again and went to a few jewelry organizers back then.
Even if she had obtained the videos, they also did not have anyone who was willing to testify in court. The people who had guaranteed that they would definitely testify in court had avoided them. Meng Qi made cynical remarks at the side. “Looks like your relations with people are not good.”
Shen Qianshu said, “Tong Hua has already said that you are despised by tens of thousands of people. You should not be qualified to say that my relations with people are not good.”
She brought Meng Qi and walked for a day. They visited quite a number of judges and people in charge of the jewelry companies back then. Only one elderly person was willing to testify in court. It was far from enough to have only his testimony.
This was a trickier area when it came to having a court case overseas.
The judge was biased towards Company B, and the jury would also be biased towards Company B. If not for the irrefutable evidence and that she wanted to win the court case, it was extremely difficult. Shen Qianshu all along had the character to keep on fighting despite all setbacks. She was not bothered by this little difficulty.
…
If she could not obtain testimonies, she did not have any way to prove that she was the person who had competed back then. It was useless to have the video only. She could only blame the frequent changes in her ident.i.ty and that she had disguised herself too well.
From the video, one could not tell that the person who had entered the compet.i.tion was her.
Meng Qi said, “You are finished. You are going to lose the court case, and you will be completely defeated.”
“Don’t pour cold water on me,” Shen Qianshu said. “In this world, black is black, and white is white.”
“As long as one has money and power, even black can become white,” Meng Qi said. “You are so naive. Why didn’t my brother give you a slap and kill you?”
Shen Qianshu took a deep breath. In her heart, she was roaring and wanted to give Meng Qi a slap to kill him. This person could pour cold water on her professionally.
Tong Hua said, “Mommy, you don’t have any way to prove that the person was you. Megan also doesn’t have a way to prove that the person was her. Unless one is blind, anyone can tell that the person in the video was not her. She is 1.7 plus meters tall. There is no way she was just 1.6 plus meters tall a few years ago. You can also prove that this is not Megan. As for plagiarism, it is a sure bet.”
Shen Qianshu had already thought about this earlier. This was a possible way. It was just that this was not what she wanted. She wanted Company B to apologize and return justice to Li Chen.
