Reborn to Outshine My Ex and His White Moonlight novel Chapter 916

Chapter 916: Chapter 916: Plagiarized Again

Cemetery parking lot.

Xia Wan leaned against the car, looking up towards the mountain.

A slender hand handed over a bottle of water.

"Sis, aren’t you afraid Third Young Master will get suspicious that you’re here today?"

Xia Wan took a sip of the water and smiled, "Suspicion is good. The more he suspects, the more he’ll dig into my background, and then we’ll have more opportunities to meet."

"Sis, don’t worry, I’ve paved the way for you long ago," the woman laughed.

"Let’s go, it’s your turn next."

"Okay."

The two got into the car and left.

...

Three days later.

Lin Zhiyi sent her design drafts to Xia Wan.

Xia Wan expressed satisfaction, hoping she could produce the finished product soon.

Lin Zhiyi breathed a sigh of relief.

In just three days, Xia Wan had become a star in the circle.

She was already a beautiful and lazy woman, instantly attracting many men.

Recently, Lin Zhiyi received five orders.

All were placed by men wanting to please Xia Wan.

Customers are customers, and as a designer, she couldn’t care less.

Focus on making money, that was enough.

But unexpected changes happened just in a day.

That day, Lin Zhiyi had just arrived at the company when her assistant rushed over, nearly breaking a heel.

"Boss, didn’t you hear your phone?"

Lin Zhiyi took out her phone and realized it was accidentally on silent.

"What’s wrong? Why so urgent?"

"Your design has been plagiarized."

The assistant anxiously presented a collection of entries from the Jing City newcomer competition.

"Today’s newly announced first place, Shirley. Her work is identical to yours."

Lin Zhiyi glanced at the photo and was stunned.

She couldn’t believe history was repeating itself.

Her work was plagiarized at the same competition once again.

Years ago, it was Song Wanqiu.

Now, it’s this person called Shirley.

Lin Zhiyi frowned and asked, "Is there a photo of her?"

"There is." The assistant swiped the screen.

A cheerful, lively face appeared, but her body looked very slender.

The assistant continued, "She has recently come to Jing City Art University from abroad as an exchange student, just in time for this newcomer competition. Do you know her, boss?"

"I don’t know her."

Lin Zhiyi confidently shook her head.

Shirley looked very young, with features not typical of those who lived abroad for long, quite light.

The overall impression was rather classical.

By any measure, she didn’t seem like someone who would plagiarize others.

The assistant, perplexed, said, "The design drafts had just been released, and she took them to the competition with impeccable timing. Even if we say she plagiarized, we can’t prove it."

"Yeah, impeccable timing, how could it be such a coincidence?"

If it were just the concept, how could the jewelry be exactly the same?

The assistant worried, "How should we explain this to President Xia?"

Lin Zhiyi was pondering that same question.

But before she could figure out how to address it, a bigger issue arose.

The assistant shrieked.

"Boss, President Xia actually publicly posted your design drawings and accused Shirley of plagiarizing your design."

"..."

Just when she feared the worst.

Lin Zhiyi took the phone and checked Xia Wan’s account.

She was a hot topic right now, and as soon as the content was posted, a flood of comments appeared.

"It’s really identical, but Lin Zhiyi is so famous now, it’s unnecessary for her to copy an unknown student, right?"

"It’s said that she only got second place in a competition years ago because she was plagiarized. The same competition, and now she’s the plagiarist."

"A student can’t get a renowned designer’s drafts, but with Lin Zhiyi’s current status, it’s easy for her to obtain a student’s work."

"I’ve heard Lin Zhiyi was dormant for a long time before suddenly becoming famous. I don’t buy it. I suspect she found new ways to continue her design career, like plagiarizing unknown students. After all, young brains are sharp."
