She paused deliberately, her gaze falling on Shang Wu, her tone sarcastic, "What I mean is, people who are involved in plagiarism controversies, I advise you to have some self-awareness and not humiliate yourselves here. You should leave now."
Shang Wu suppressed her anger and tried to keep her tone calm: "We just want to communicate with Mr. Chen Runsen in person to clarify the misunderstanding. Regarding the similarity in the interview remarks, I believe it's just a coincidence, and we can..."
"Coincidence?" The female assistant scoffed, interrupting her with a raised voice that drew the attention of several people in the hall. "How easy you make it sound! Alex's interview was released last month, while yours only came out these past few days. The core content is so similar, and you think you can just brush it off with a coincidence? Aren't you just desperate to ride on Alex's popularity? Plagiarism is plagiarism, whether you admit it or not, it's a fact!"
Her words were extremely harsh and rude; she was practically cursing him to his face.
Shang Wu was so angry that her eyes turned cold and her body trembled slightly.
She had never been so blatantly insulted and slandered.
Lu Rang's eyes instantly turned as cold as ice. He stepped forward and shielded Shang Wu behind him. The oppressive aura emanating from him made the female assistant subconsciously take a half step back.
Watch your words.
Lu Rang's voice was not loud, but it carried a chilling intensity: "To publicly accuse someone of plagiarism and make personal attacks without solid evidence constitutes defamation, and we can pursue your legal responsibility."
The female assistant was intimidated by Lu Rang's imposing presence, and her expression changed slightly. However, remembering the powerful backer he had, she quickly regained her composure.
She said, her voice stern but her heart pounding, "Who are you trying to scare? I'm telling the truth! If you don't leave, I'll call security!"
Seeing the other party's unyielding and unreasonable attitude, Shang Wu knew that normal communication was no longer possible.
She took a deep breath and calmed down, even managing a faint, cold smile to appear on her lips.
She gently tugged at Lu Rang's arm, signaling him to calm down, and looked directly at the female assistant.
Shang Wu said clearly, word by word, "Alright, since Mr. Chen Runsen is unwilling to meet and communicate to resolve the issue, please convey this message to him."
Her voice wasn't loud, but it carried an undeniable force.
“I’m giving him one last chance. Come out now, and let’s talk calmly. Maybe we can find a dignified solution. If he still chooses to avoid me…”
Shang Wu paused, her eyes sharpening: "Then don't blame me for using some extreme measures. The situation might not be very pleasant then. I hope he won't regret it."
The female assistant laughed exaggeratedly, as if she had heard the funniest joke in the world: "Extraordinary measures? Ha, what a joke! What other measures could you possibly have? Nothing more than continuing to play the victim and smear others online! Our Alex is upright and honest, are you afraid of him? Security! Security! Get these two troublemakers out of here!"
Several security guards came over after hearing the noise.
Shang Wu stopped looking at her and coldly said, "The message has been delivered. I hope you can bear the consequences."
After saying that, she took Lu Rang's arm, straightened her back, and turned away with composure and arrogance amidst the strange looks from all the security guards and receptionists, as if she were not being driven away, but rather a queen returning to the palace after her inspection tour.
As soon as she stepped out of the office building and into her car, Shang Wu's forced composure finally relaxed, and exhaustion and grievance welled up in her heart.
Lu Rang didn't start the car immediately. Instead, he turned his head to look at Shang Wu and asked a crucial question: "Did you record what that assistant said just now?"
Shang Wu paused for a moment, then nodded: "I recorded it. I secretly pressed the record button as soon as he said he had brought shame upon himself."
A hint of approval and a cold glint flashed in Lu Rang's eyes: "Very good. Send me the recording."
He took out his phone, received the audio file sent by Shang Wu, quickly operated it a few times, and then dialed Yan Yue's number.
“Yan Yue, listen up. I’m sending you a recording. It’s Chen Runsen’s assistant publicly slandering Shang Wu for plagiarism and insulting her character. The evidence is conclusive.”
"Immediately sue this assistant for defamation and insult! Yes, sue him by name, and at the same time apply to the court to summon Chen Runsen as a related person to testify. Since they are unwilling to communicate privately, then we will see them in court."
"I want everyone to know that slandering my woman will come at a legal price! And I want that arrogant designer to see just how much trouble his team has caused him."
Lu Rang's tone was resolute, carrying an unquestionable decisiveness.
He intends to use the most formal and forceful legal means to compel the other party to come forward and escalate the situation completely.
This move by Lu Rang was ruthless and extremely effective, as it aimed to undermine Lu's position.
Once the court summons was issued, Chen Runsen could no longer hold on.
Whether he likes it or not, he must address this issue directly. His assistant's arrogant words and actions will become the biggest stain on the other team's reputation.
As Shang Wu watched Lu Rang's calm and composed figure as he made his arrangements, she felt a deep sense of security.
With him around, even the biggest storms seem less frightening.
