Reborn to Outshine My Ex and His White Moonlight novel Chapter 920

Chapter 920: Chapter 920: How Could They Possibly Have a Conscience?

University.

Shirley took advantage of the cover of night to get into a car.

"Sis, she’s not falling for it at all. How’s it going on your end?"

"It’s useless. She seems to have some conscience." Xia Wan said.

"Conscience? How could they possibly have a conscience?" Shirley sneered, "We must not have turned up the heat enough."

With that, Xia Wan handed her the phone.

"Looks like the fire hasn’t started yet, but someone’s already trying to put it out."

Shirley glanced at the trending topics, incredulous.

"Why is a man’s infidelity in the top five of the trending list?"

"It must be Third Young Master helping Lin Zhiyi suppress the heat." Xia Wan said solemnly.

Shirley forcefully closed the phone and asked, "Sis, has Third Young Master contacted you?"

Xia Wan rubbed her forehead: "No, Third Young Master is even more composed than I thought."

"Didn’t your people ask around? They say Third Young Master holds Lin Zhiyi dearer than his own eyes, if something happens to Lin Zhiyi, he should be investigating you more, haven’t you made yourself clear enough?"

Shirley didn’t understand why things were not developing as they had planned.

Xia Wan said, "I think Third Young Master might also be testing me to see what my actual intentions are."

Shirley gritted her teeth, "Sis, you can’t get caught up in this, let me handle it."

"Shirley, don’t do anything reckless." Xia Wan cautioned.

"No, I won’t sit and wait for death, I have plenty of ways to deal with Lin Zhiyi. Don’t worry, I won’t let them trace it back to you."

With that, Shirley got out of the car.

Xia Wan called after her: "Shirley!"

"Sis, I’m fine, I’ll be careful."

"Okay."

Shirley nodded, tightened her coat, and left.

...

Lin Zhiyi was basking in the joy of a day out with Gong Chen.

Little did she know she’d be hit out of the blue the next day.

Lin Zhiyi was just brushing her teeth after getting up when her phone wouldn’t stop vibrating.

After a quick rinse, she answered the call.

The assistant started speaking rapidly before she could say anything.

"Boss! It’s bad! Someone anonymous released a recording of your conversation with Shirley, accusing you of pressuring Shirley in secret!"

"Those dialogues seem to be edited, they don’t sound right no matter what."

"There’s now an outcry online calling to boycott us."

"Miss Xia made three calls to the studio earlier, I could only say you’re handling the matter, maybe you should call her back first."

As Lin Zhiyi listened to the call, she walked to the study and checked the phone for updates.

Just as the assistant had said.

Online, the recording clearly showed traces of editing.

Piecing together her and Shirley’s conversation to make it sound like she was pushing Shirley to admit plagiarism.

"Don’t you want to explain about the plagiarism issue?"

"What’s your concept?"

"You don’t know?"

After adjusting the tone slightly, it even sounded aggressive.

And Shirley’s voice trembled, saying she didn’t know.

It was obvious who was stronger and who was weaker.

Thankfully, she hadn’t said much else.

Otherwise, who knows how it would have been edited.

The comments below were overwhelmingly one-sided.

"I knew Lin Zhiyi’s creativity had run dry, that’s why she’s stealing student designs."
