Chapter 313 Infringement (17)

"Hello--"

The call was connected quickly. Li Jing seemed very busy, and the voice on the phone was very hurried and panicked: "What's wrong?"

"Did Tian Xin call you today? What's going on with that online news?" Lin Zhou couldn't calm down anymore. He practically roared, "Where is she?"

"Hey, why are you mad at me? Did I provoke you?"

Li Jing also got angry: "Where are you all afternoon? She's been calling like crazy, don't you know?"

"Get to the point!"

"That's the point," Li Jing said, raising her voice and emphasizing each word. "Listen, Lin Zhou, I don't care what happened between you two, and I don't care what you're doing right now. Book a flight right now to go to Yiwu to see her. Remember to bring that agreement she mentioned!"

"What did she tell you? Did Zhen Zhen sue her for copyright infringement?"

"I don't know Zhen Zhen, but she was very anxious. She said that the girl said she and her had signed a private agreement before designing 'Yue Hua', which proved that she had not infringed on any copyrights. I don't know the exact details of the situation, but I do understand one thing.

She said she didn't remember signing the agreement with the girl, but she swore she had signed it. So, did you sign it with the girl behind her back?

Li Jing finished speaking, her tone calming down. She continued, "Lin Zhou, you did a good job on this matter. You should always be on guard against others. If you have this agreement, take it to her immediately. Rumors are circulating online that she plagiarized. Once the court hearing begins, the other party will use what she said at the show as irrefutable evidence. You know better than I do what the consequences of this will be..."

"Okay, you don't have to say it, I know!"

Lin Zhou interrupted her: "The website is in a critical period right now. If you can't do it, ask Lin Hai, Gao Cheng and the others to come and help you! I'll book a ticket to see her now. If she calls again, don't tell her I've been there. She seems... she doesn't want me to get involved in this matter!"

"What is this? How could she..."

"Also, there's one more thing. Don't tell her about Liang Xiao yet. Wait until it's over before you tell her slowly. I'm worried she'll start to overthink it."

"She'll only start imagining things if you don't tell her!" Li Jing rolled her eyes in anger. "Brother, everything Liang Xiao did this time was entirely due to your negligence. He committed the crime right under your nose, and you didn't even notice? And you're still trying to cover for her. Don't you think about how Tian Xin will react when she finds out?"

"I didn't say I was protecting her. I just wanted to keep her in the dark at this critical moment. There's already enough going on, so let's not make things worse for her!"

"Tsk, you're still saying you won't cover up, but you're clearly trying to smooth things over!" Li Jing took the opportunity to complain, somewhat helplessly: "Alright, alright, let's not talk about this anymore. Just go ahead. We'll take care of the website, so it won't be a big deal. But you, don't let me down again!"

After hanging up the phone, he glanced at the time and it was almost 9 o'clock in the evening.

If I rush to the airport at this time, the earliest I can catch is the first flight tomorrow morning. If everything goes well, I can see her tomorrow morning.

Thinking of this, he quickly called his assistant, asked her to book a ticket for him, and reminded her of the company's affairs.

He quickly packed his simple luggage and drove to the airport.

As the night deepened, the road became almost empty. He floored the accelerator and sped off towards the airport like a whirlwind of lightning.

Beethoven's "Moonlight Sonata" played on repeat in the car. The soothing and solemn music flowed slowly, easing his turbulent heart. He raised his head and glanced at the moon above his head through the car window. His longing for Tian Xin once again reached its peak.

"If I had received the call the first time, I would have arrived now!" He muttered to himself and dialed Tian Xin's number again.

The phone rang three times, but it was still unanswered!

He sighed, hung up the call, and threw the phone on the passenger seat!

"Transferring the warmth of one person to the chest of another—"

As soon as I threw the phone over, it suddenly rang.

He was startled, then delighted, and quickly grabbed it!

"Hey, Tian Xin! You finally..."

"Lin Zhou, it's me!" Liang Xiao's voice appeared on the phone, with a hint of coquettishness and dissatisfaction.

Lin Zhou felt extremely disappointed in an instant and wanted to hang up the phone.

Liang Xiao on the other end seemed to sense that he was about to hang up, and immediately shouted: "Hey, hey, hey, don't hang up yet, I haven't finished yet!"

"What's going on?"

"Lin Zhou, don't be so impatient when you hear it's me!"

Liang Xiao slowed down his speech, but his tone was a little questioning: "I heard from Xiao Li that you were going to catch a plane out of town, is that right?"

"What's the matter with you? Tell me quickly!" Lin Zhou said anxiously.

Liang Xiao said calmly, "I just saw online that Tian Xin was sued. You're in such a hurry to go out of town, are you going to find her? Lin Zhou, I advise you not to go. It's useless. This kind of infringement case will definitely lead to success.

Besides, you're responsible for not only your own company, but also Uncle Lin and the others. I heard from my father that Uncle Lin's company is about to go public. After so many years of hard work, it's finally on the verge of becoming a group company, and at this critical juncture, you're provoking Tian Xin. If she loses the case and the media seizes on it to make a big fuss, do you know what the consequences will be?"

"You don't need to remind me! I know exactly what I'm doing!" Lin Zhou said, "Because of our business relationship, I asked Li Jing to suppress the incident where you used Xiao Min to tamper with the website notification. But I hope this is the last time. Don't challenge my bottom line again."

After saying that, he hung up the phone.

As soon as Liang Xiao's voice disappeared, the car suddenly became quiet!

The road from the county seat to the ancient city was not far, and he had walked it countless times and was familiar with it. However, to get to the airport, he had to change lanes and pass through two toll booths.

After hanging up the phone, I arrived at the first toll booth.

The car had ETC, so there was no need to stop and pay. He drove the car slowly in and passed the gate along the line.

As soon as he passed the barrier and was about to speed up, two traffic policemen in uniform standing by the road blew their whistles and directed him to pull over.

Stopping cars at toll booths is a common occurrence and a routine operation. One is to check for out-of-town vehicles, and the other is to check whether large trucks are carrying prohibited items or are overloaded.

But this is his private car, and it's a local vehicle. Why stop him?

With some doubts, he still pulled the car over!

The car window slowly rolled down, and one of the traffic police officers came forward and greeted him: "Hello, routine inspection! Could you please blow the whistle..."

As he spoke, a device for testing alcohol concentration was handed to him through the window...
