Chapter 75
Plagiarism is something that is easy to deal with if it makes a profit, but if it doesn't, it can only be condemned morally. Most of the things that Lu An plagiarized were not profitable, and only those that were patched up made a profit. It is difficult to win the lawsuit in this case, and it will only ruin Lu An's reputation.
However, once Lu An is tainted with plagiarism, not many large companies are willing to use him. After all, even the slightest bit of plagiarism in a large project may directly damage the image of that project in the minds of the audience.
Lu An was ruined, and Luo Yan did not have a good ending either. His graduation certificate was revoked, and Lu An even sued Luo Yan. Luo Yan had signed a confidentiality agreement with Lu An. Xie Zhuo helped Luo Yan and provided a lawyer. Lu An had to refund the money for the printed album, and he had already paid a large sum of money for the loss caused by the printing. He did not get any benefits from the lawsuit with Luo Yan, and he also had to pay a sum of money for intentional injury.
After this incident, Shi Wan didn't dare to take orders casually. Even when someone asked him about it in the background, Shi Wan didn't dare to answer. Once bitten by a snake, one will be afraid of ropes for ten years. Especially when Shi Wan went to class, some classmates asked him if he really worked hard for half a month and only got 200 yuan.
Shi Wan: ...These people all know how to sprinkle pepper spray on his heart.
The incident lasted for almost a week before it was over. What happened afterwards had nothing to do with Shi Wan. It was mainly because Lu An and Luo Yan had a huge fight. The two should have talked about it privately, but they never reached an agreement. With wave after wave of shocking news breaking out, the rest time every day was not boring at all.
Previously, because of Ruan Leyi's incident, Xue Tianze gave up part of his profits, and Gu Boyan gave it directly to Shi Wan. This time, because of Pei Shijin's misfortune, Xue Tianze's apology came again, and Shi Wan's account received another large sum of money.
"Why, why is there so much money?" Shi Wan called Gu Zhinian after seeing the text message from the bank, and this was the first sentence he said when the call was connected.
"Hmm?" Gu Zhinian's voice was sleepy, as if he had just woken up, and there was a bit of laziness in it, which made Shi Wan's ears numb.
"That's right, how come there is suddenly a sum of money in my account? It's so much!" I have lost money so many times at midnight that I can hardly recognize the number 0.
"Has it arrived? It was given by my eldest brother. Pei Shijin was involved in Lu An's incident. I complained to Xue Tianze, and this is Xue Tianze's apology." Gu Zhinian's voice was even more lazy and carried a hint of intimacy.
"That's a lot of apology!" Shi Wan's eyes widened. "Will that be bad?"
"It's okay. Xue Tianze got this from his brother's dividends anyway. He did this to tell his brother to be more content. It's like killing two birds with one stone."
"Okay then." Shi Wan nodded. "Go back to sleep. I'm hanging up."
"Is this why Wanwan called?"
Shi Wan felt like his cochlear implant was broken. He actually heard grievance in Gu Zhinian's tone!
Shi Wan:!!! His cochlear implant must need repairs!
"Wanwan?" Gu Zhinian called out again after Shi Wan hadn't said anything for a long time. He could imagine that Shi Wan must be shutting down and restarting her cochlear implant. "Don't mess with your cochlear implant. You heard me right."
"Cough cough cough..." Shi Wan, who had just turned on the external cochlear implant, heard this and started coughing due to choking. "It's so late, you should go have breakfast." Shi Wan stuttered a little and looked around. He was on the balcony making a phone call. Everyone else was still sleeping, so he breathed a sigh of relief when no one else was there.
"Don't you miss me every night?"
"Didn't we just video chat yesterday?" What else do you think when you video chat every day?
"..." Gu Zhinian was choked. How could this be the same? Shi Wan was in the dormitory when they video chatted. They were obviously a legal couple, but they were kept secretive and couldn't say or do anything. "How can a video compare to the real person? Shi Wan, don't you love me anymore?"
With a "creak", the balcony door was opened, and Shi Wan and Zhang Chao looked at each other. The cell phone did not leak any sound, at least Zhang Chao did not hear anything, but Shi Wan blushed. Zhang Chao instantly realized that Shi Wan was talking to Gu Zhinian on the phone, and he overheard the intimate conversation between the young couple.
"Well, you guys keep going! Keep going! Just pretend I haven't been here!" Zhang Chao retreated. He had originally wanted to go to the toilet, but now it was no longer interesting. He even woke up from a nap. He was really a sinner!
Shi Wan: “…” It’s really nothing that you misunderstood.
Zhang Chao didn't give him any chance to explain!
"Wanwan, you really don't love me anymore." Gu Zhinian naturally heard Shi Wan's voice. The corners of his lips curled up, and his voice became more aggrieved. Gu Zhinian felt his fingertips were empty, and he missed Shi Wan's soft hair.
If he had known that this play was so far away, he would not have taken it!
"Speak nicely!" Gu Zhinian said this again. Shi Wan almost dropped her phone and her face turned red with embarrassment.
"Where did I not speak nicely? As expected, men just get bored easily and don't cherish the old things once they get them."
Shi Wan was in a state of confusion!
"You've been ignoring me since you saw me wearing that dress. Shi Wan, do you only like me when I wear that dress?"
"Shut up!" When Shi Wan heard what Gu Zhinian said, he remembered what happened that night, the strong and smooth muscle lines, the rolling water droplets, the surging sexual tension. His nose felt hot, and Shi Wan quickly covered it with his hand.
"Xiao Wan'er, why are you bleeding from the nose?" Sang Sijia originally wanted to call Shi Wan inside. After all, the balcony was a bit cold. It would be bad to catch a cold if he talked on the phone for a long time. But when she saw this, she was scared to death.
"Wanwan, what's wrong with you? I'll ask the doctor to come over." Gu Zhinian sat up straight, wishing he could fly back immediately.
"It's okay. The air is too dry. I just have a nosebleed. I'll hang up now. It's really okay." Shi Wan's ears were burning red. If people knew that he had a nosebleed because he was thinking about that thing, he really didn't want to live anymore!
After saying that, Shi Wan hung up in a hurry and washed the blood at the sink. Sang Sijia hurriedly put on a tissue. Fortunately, the nosebleed stopped after a while. Sang Sijia was relieved after making sure that Shi Wan was fine.
"From now on, you have to make phone calls inside. You can't stand the alternating hot and cold nose. Don't you even know your own body?" Sang Sijia said worriedly.
"Yeah, I know." Shi Wan nodded and rubbed his ears to cool them down.
Sang Sijia just thought that Shi Wan's ears were uncomfortable and didn't think much about it. The bodyguard came up and asked Shi Wan if he wanted to go to the hospital. Shi Wan said it was okay and didn't go to the hospital. She told Gu Zhinian all these things directly. Gu Zhinian just asked the bodyguard to pay more attention to Shi Wan and go to the hospital immediately if anything was wrong.
After Shi Wan hung up the phone, Gu Zhinian became quiet and there was no news at all. Shi Wan was still a little uncomfortable. The message he sent to Gu Zhinian fell on deaf ears, and the video call Shi Wan sent to Gu Zhinian was also disconnected.
Shi Wan pursed her lips, feeling a little flustered, but Gu Zhinian called her soon.
"Come downstairs."
