Lin Qingqian seemed to sense her gaze and turned her head to look. There was no fluctuation in her calm eyes, but she raised the champagne glass in her hand to toast her.
Li Ruzhu snorted coldly and thought that she was trying her best to save face. She must be gritting her teeth in hatred.
Thinking of this, she felt much better.
After all the models finished their walk, the lights in the banquet hall lit up. The emcee invited the designer to go on stageâ¦
Yu Lian walked onto the stage and bowed to the guests, smiling brightly. The emcee handed him the microphone and was about to interview him when the tightly carved door was suddenly pushed open and four people walked in.
âMay I ask who is Mr. Yu Lian?â The young man walking in front asked indifferently.
For a moment, everyoneâs gazes were attracted to him, and they whispered about his identity.
On stage, Yu Lian was also dumbfounded. He held the microphone and coughed drvlv. âIâm Yu Lian. Mav I ask who vou are?â
The man in a black suit moved his slender legs, and the guests at the scene automatically stepped back to make way for him.
He stopped in front of Yu Lian and said in a cold and formal voice, âMy surname is Liang, Liang Yi. Iâm a lawyer from Tsunami Law Firm.â
Liang Yi. Anyone who was not deaf or stupid would have heard of his name.
In the past two years, he had been the most famous lawyer in Lan City. It was said that he had never lost a case. Countless corporations wanted to hire him as a legal consultant.
However, he rejected all of them and opened an independent law firm. The cases he took on would be resolved beautifully for the person involved every time.
Of course, his lawyer fees were also outstanding and ridiculously expensive.
But he appeared here tonight. Clearly, something big was about to happen.
Everyone at the event location revealed excited gazes. On the stage, when Yu Lian heard the name âLiang Yiâ , his eyes immediately widened and he looked at Li Ruzhu below the stage for help.
Li Ruzhu looked at Lin Qingqian not far away. She had a feeling that Lin Qingqian was the one who brought Liang Yi over to ruin the scene.
Lin Qingqian seemed to not know that Li Ruzhu was looking at her. Her red lips curled into a smile as she looked at Yu Lian on the stage.
Seeing that he was silent, Liang Yi turned around and gave his assistant a look.
The assistant quickly handed him a white envelope.
Liang Yi took the envelope and handed it to Yu Lian. âOn behalf of my client, Miss Lin Qingqian, and Shi Guang Studio, Iâve officially submitted a lawsuit accusing you of plagiarizing my client, Miss Linâs, design drafts and damaging Shi Guang Studioâs interests. This is the courtâs notice.â
As soon as these words were spoken, the entire venue was in an uproar. Their gazes instantly gathered on Lin Qingqian.
Lin Qingqianâs expression was indifferent.
Yu Lianâs face was as pale as paper. He kept shaking his head and said agitatedly, âNo, I didnât. Youâre slandering me!!â
He looked at Lin Qingqian with hatred. âI didnât plagiarize her. She plagiarized me!â
Liang Yiâs expression was cold. He slapped the notice on his chest and didnât care if he took it or not. He said in a formal tone, âSave the accusation of plagiarism for the courtroom. â
With that, he turned around and walked off the stage, walking in front of Lin
Qingqian. âMiss Lin, Iâll handle this case fully. Donât worry.â
Lin Qingqian nodded. âSorry to trouble you, Lawyer Liang.â
âYouâre welcome,â Liang Yi said calmly. As long as the money was enough, it would not be a problem.
âLawyer Liang, could you also help me sue Miss Li Ruzhu? She bribed my assistant to get the clothes that Designer Lin sent to me, which caused misunderstandings between Designer Lin and me and severely damaged my reputation.â said Li Wenwen in a gentle but firm voice.
Liang Yi nodded. âNo problem, Miss Li. These two cases are related to each other to begin with. I can deal with them together.â
Li Wenwen smiled faintly. âThank you, Lawyer Liang.â
âYouâre welcome! If thereâs nothing else, Iâll go back first!â With that, Liang Yi left the event location with his people.
The atmosphere at the event location fell into a dead silence.
Yu Lian stood on the runway with the microphone in his hand. It was as awkward as it could be. The emcee was even more embarrassed than him. He felt that his career was over.
âDesigner Yu didnât plagiarize!â Li Ruzhu lifted her skirt and walked onto the stage. She said loudly, âWeâll hire a lawyer to handle this matter fully. In addition, weâll also sue Lin Qingqian for damaging our reputation.â
Everyoneâs gazes lingered between the two of them, feeling like they had eaten a huge melon.
Lin Qingqian smiled, her voice clear and firm. âIâll accompany you to the end.â
Before Li Ruzhu could speak, she heard a shout. âDamn!â Everyoneâs gazes landed on the rich socialite who shouted.
âIf I had known that you were the one who invested in this brand, I wouldnât have come!â Ling Shuangâs face was filled with anger and disdain. âPlagiarizing piece of trash.â
âLing Shuang, Designer Yu didnâtâ¦â
Before Li Ruzhu could finish quibbling, Ling Shuang interrupted coldly,
âWhether he did it or not, would you be clearer than him on this?â
Li Ruzhu and Yu Lianâs expressions turned ugly. They originally wanted to take this opportunity to repair their relationship with Ling Shuang, but they did not expectâ¦
Ling Shuang couldnât even be bothered to look at her. She said in a lazy and arrogant tone, âIf I had known earlier, I would have gone to 1942 to drink.
Sisters, letâs go.â
The few sisters in the same circle followed her lead, so they naturally went with her.
Ling Shuang turned around and met Lin Qingqianâs eyes for a second. Without any reaction, she turned around and left.
Lin Qingqian turned her head and said, âLetâs go too.â
Li Wenwen held her slender wrist. âAlright.â
Ling Shuang brought the few sisters to her sports car. From the corner of her eye, she saw Lin Qingqian walking out from afar and couldnât help but take another look at her clothes.
âPrincess Shuang, what are you looking at?â the little sister asked curiously.
Ling Shuang retracted her gaze and said in a nonchalant tone, âItâs nothing.
Her clothes look pretty good.â
âItâs indeed good-looking! But didnât you play well with Li Ruzhu in the past? Why are you helping Lin Qingqian tonight?â The sister asked again.
âAnyone can play well with the daughter of a nouveau riche!â Ling Shuang snorted coldly and said proudly, âI didnât help Lin Qingqian. I just canât stand that Li Ruzhu. A pheasant wants to climb onto a branch and become a phoenix!â
The sisters laughed at the same time. âAlright, letâs go drink. The show tonight was too boring.â
âAlright.â Ling Shuang started the car and sped away.
Lin Qingqian and Li Wenwen got into the huge van and gave the driver the address of Begonia Courtyard.
The car drove steadily on the road. The light and shadows outside the window flashed in from time to time, illuminating Lin Qingqianâs delicate and upright facial features.
Li Wenwen couldnât help but ask curiously, âHow do you know that the spy came from my team?â
Lin Qingqian came back to her senses and the corners of her lips curled up slightly. âI already suspected it when the plagiarism incident happened last time, but I didnât have enough evidence. Moreover, itâs your team. I canât accuse anyone for no reason.â
âWhat about this time?â Li Wenwen asked again.
âLight Feather is a series of products derived from âLoveâs Havenâ. Your temperament is the most compatible with this series, so I sent some of the design drafts to you to keep a secret.â
Lin Qingqian said softly, âYou definitely wonât leak my design drafts. The person who can see the designer drafts must be the person you trust the most.
If itâs not your manager, then it can only be your assistant.â
Li Wenwenâs eyes lit up as she looked at her. âHave you never doubted your team?â
âI did, but they didnât have the motive to do so.â Lin Qingqianâs gentle voice was filled with certainty
Li Wenwenâs lips curved. âLooks like Iâll have to learn from you about choosing people.â
Lin Qingqian smiled humbly and did not say anything. Her cell phone suddenly rang.
Li Wenwen gave her a look and turned to look out of the window.
Lin Qingqian picked up the phone and said very softly, âHello⦠Yes, Iâm on the way back. Alright, see you later.â
As soon as Li Wenwen heard her words, she knew who was calling. She did not ask further and thoughtfully asked the chauffeur to drive faster.
Lin Qingqian alighted from the car and walked into the house. Just as she changed into her slippers, a video call came.
She smiled and accepted the video call. Jiang Yanshenâs handsome facial features appeared on the camera. She smiled. âDid you install a tracking device on me?â
Jiang Yanshen didnât say anything. His black eyes landed on her, his gaze deep and hot. His throat bobbed as he said, âYou went in this dress tonight?â Lin Qingqian smiled. âDoes it look good?â
Jiang Yanshen frowned. âQianqian, youâre not allowed to wear this in the future.â
His voice was stern as if he was warning her.
No man liked his woman to dress so sexily and charmingly, especially when he wasnât around.
He could almost imagine how brazen those lecherous menâs eyes were when they looked at her tonight!
This feeling made him feel as though he was about to go crazy.
âAlright, itâs not allowed in the future.â Lin Qingqian saw his frosty face and coaxed him nicely. âI dressed better because I was going to stand out tonight and slap Li Ruzhuâs face!â
Although she said that, Jiang Yanshen was still unhappy. She was dressed so nicely, but he did not get to see her.
âPut this on again when I come back.â Jiang Yanshenâs thin lips curled up slightly. His voice was no longer so tense and was a little hoarse.
Lin Qingqian didnât know if she was thinking too much, but she felt that there was a hidden meaning in his words. âWhy should I specially wear it again for you to see?â
Jiang Yanshen didnât answer. Instead, he said, âWear it again. Iâll bring you a gift, okay?â
Lin Qingqianâs brows moved slightly. âCould it be another anklet?â
She tried her best to maintain a smile. Thinking of the bracelets and anklets in the drawer gave her a headache.
Jiang Yanshen: âNo.â
Lin Qingqian was slightly relieved, but she did not agree to it immediately. âWeâll talk when you come back.â
If he had ulterior motivesâ¦
Jiang Yanshen didnât want to force her and changed the topic. âDo you need help?â
The matter had already spread online. Although he was far abroad, Song Qin was still in the country. Naturally, she informed her Boss immediately about this.
Lin Qingqian smiled faintly. âYou donât believe in my ability?â
Jiang Yanshen thought of the things she had experienced along the way and how she had always passed smoothly. For a moment, he was not so worried.
âIf you need anything, look for Yunshen. Heâll help you!â
âGot it!â Lin Qingqian did not reject his good intentions.
The two of them chatted for a while more. Seeing that it was getting late, they reluctantly ended the video call.
Jiang Yanshen put down his phone.. The blonde girl at the counter handed him a diamond ring and said in fluent English, âSir, what do you think of this wedding ring?â
