Chapter 30 Get Out of Here
Jiang Ning knew that the person was Chu Qingxue.
Chu Qingxue missed several days of work in order to take care of Yang Liyun, and was subsequently dismissed by FY.
FY was allowed to take personal leave, but Chu Qingxue did not.
Jiang Ning now understood that Chu Qingxue did it on purpose in order to get into the Lu Group.
"Don't worry, your design will never lose. I have confidence in you," Pete said, comforting Jiang Ning when he saw that she looked a little pale.
Jiang Ning gave a wry smile.
What she was ever worried about was never the design.
Over the next few days, Jiang Ning buried himself in design work.
Her husband had already been snatched away by Chu Qingxue. If she couldn't outdo Chu Qingxue in design, she felt as if her entire worth had been negated.
However, the market recognized her designs. Ninghui Media's investment in "Surprise Life" was a box office hit, making not only the two lead actors famous, but also the jewelry worn by the female lead in the movie became a sensation. FY took the opportunity to mass-produce and launch the jewelry into the market, and sales were considerable.
Jiang Ning went to work as usual today, getting up a little earlier than usual.
Because of the outstanding market performance of her jewelry designs, Pitt intends to promote her again. However, she is still relatively inexperienced in FY, so she needs to be interviewed by senior executives from various departments of the company.
However, as soon as Jiang Ning got off the company bus, she saw from afar that the company gate was crowded with young people, and they had even put up a banner—
Jiang Ning, the plagiarist, apologizes!
Before Jiang Ning could figure out what was going on, someone saw her and immediately directed the group of young people to rush towards her.
"You plagiarist, apologize now!"
"Don't drag my brother into this!"
"Xin Xin would never wear jewelry designed by a plagiarist!"
Jiang Ning couldn't avoid it; he was entangled by the troublemakers.
Although she knows Sanda (Chinese kickboxing), she can't fight against teenagers who don't even look like adults.
She was finally able to enter the company safely thanks to the help of security guards.
It turns out that the jewelry sets she designed for "Surprise Life" were reported for plagiarism, and marketing accounts made a big fuss about it. In addition, the male and female leads of the movie, Mo Hongyi and Li Xinxin, had just become popular, which triggered a war of words between fans in the Chinese entertainment industry.
The fans of both companies joined forces to attack Jiang Ning, which led to the scene at the company this morning.
In the boardroom, Jiang Ning sipped the coffee Pete had made for her to calm her nerves while asking, "Who reported me for plagiarism? Where's the evidence?"
"It's Meng Hui."
Jiang Ning was surprised.
"After she was dismissed from her job here, she went to LC, the newly established company by Lu's Group, to become a team leader."
After listening to Pete's explanation, Jiang Ning suddenly understood.
It seems that either Meng Hui is holding a grudge against her for being dismissed, or Chu Qingxue is using Meng Hui to target her.
"So who did she say I plagiarized?"
Upon hearing Jiang Ning's words, Pete was both amused and exasperated, and asked her in return:
"you guess?"
Lu's Group.
The CEO's office.
Lu Junyan was looking at his phone, which was unusual for him.
The phone screen showed today's trending topics, with a picture of Jiang Ning being pulled by the hair by Li Xinxin's fans at the company entrance, his face contorted in pain.
The coffee beside him had gone cold when someone pushed open the door to Lu Junyan's office without knocking.
"Junyan..."
The person who arrived was Chu Qingxue, and Lu Junyan's displeasure vanished instantly.
"Look, your coffee's all cold. I've made you a fresh cup."
When Chu Qingxue was changing Lu Junyan's coffee, she saw that Lu Junyan was looking at today's trending topics.
"Junyan, there's something I'm not sure if I should say."
Lu Junyan looked up at Chu Qingxue.
"You don't need to be so polite with me."
Chu Qingxue smiled shyly, "I know Jiang Ning plagiarized, and it's caused quite a stir... Actually, it's quite common for designers to lack inspiration, so don't blame Jiang Ning. But... she shouldn't have plagiarized the piano series. The piano series design is very unique and famous both inside and outside the industry. It's obvious at a glance that she plagiarized someone else..."
“Yes!” Lu Junyan sighed. “She’s not as talented as you, so she’s not really suited for design.”
"So she'd better publicly admit to plagiarism, apologize sincerely, and quickly put an end to this... To be honest, I'm actually an apprentice of that master designer of the piano series..."
When Chu Qingxue got to this point, she saw Lu Junyan's eyes light up.
“He hates it most when people plagiarize him. If Jiang Ning doesn’t apologize soon, I’m afraid he’ll be embroiled in lawsuits and face huge compensation payments…”
Chu Qingxue's face was full of worry for Jiang Ning. Lu Junyan reached out and touched Chu Qingxue's smooth long hair, his gentle eyes seeming to praise Chu Qingxue's kindness.
The trending topic of Jiangning plagiarizing the piano series continues to gain traction. For an entire day, the fans stayed and blocked the entrance of FY Company.
It wasn't until late at night, after Jiang Ning and the other fans had dispersed, that she dared to leave the company. By the time she got home, it was almost midnight.
There was a person standing at the door of her house.
Jiang Ning was startled, thinking that her home address had also been exposed and that her fans were coming to ambush her again.
Lu Junyan turned around and saw Jiang Ning frowning as if he had seen a ghost.
"You don't want to see me?"
Jiang Ning never expected Lu Junyan to appear here.
"It's because I don't want to..."
She spoke the truth, but saw Lu Junyan smile, clearly not believing her.
"What do you need me for?"
"Let's go inside and talk."
With the same commanding tone as always, Jiang Ning opened the door, not wanting Lu Junyan to come in, but she also felt that she couldn't stop him.
Lu Junyan went in before her.
Jiang Ning still remembered that the last time Lu Junyan came, it was to return her divorce agreement.
Could it be that Lu Junyan has agreed to the divorce?
Jiang Ning was feeling nervous when she saw Lu Junyan actually take out a piece of paper and hand it to her.
However, it was not a divorce agreement.
"This is the apology statement that Qingxue wrote for you."
"What?"
Jiang Ning didn't understand.
Lu Junyan sat down on the sofa, a sneer on his lips, as if mocking her for not being smart enough.
"Qingxue is the apprentice of the piano series design master you plagiarized. She said that as long as you publicly admit to plagiarism and sincerely apologize, her teacher will not pursue your civil liability."
Jiang Ning laughed in anger.
How come she didn't know when she had taken Chu Qingxue as her disciple?
"Lu Junyan, do you believe everything Chu Qingxue says?"
Staring at Jiang Ning with anger, Lu Junyan calmly said, "You know the answer."
Yes, she knew the answer.
Jiang Ning chuckled self-deprecatingly, realizing that he had really gone to unnecessary trouble.
"I didn't plagiarize, and I won't apologize." She crumpled the paper Lu Junyan had given her into a ball and threw it into the trash can.
Lu Junyan's expression hardened.
"Jiang Ning, Qing Xue means well. She wants to help you. Don't be ungrateful."
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Jiang Ning open the door.
"Get out of here."
This scene seems familiar.
Back then, when he came to her door with the divorce papers, Jiang Ning opened the door and chased him away, just like she did now.
Lu Junyan found it quite novel that Jiang Ning had twice opened the door for him to leave.
Last time, he left.
This time...
Jiang Ning stood at the door, waiting for Lu Junyan to get up. Lu Junyan did stand up, but as he walked towards her, he reached out and ripped off his tie.
