Priceless Baby: 101 Bedside Stories - Chapter 441
Chapter 441: During The Live-stream Confrontation 2
Shen Qianshu and Shen Lin stood up. The vice president asked, “Are you two sisters?”
Shen Lin said, “Yes, we are!”
Shen Qianshu responded. “I wouldn’t consider us as sisters. The Shen Family raised me up for eighteen years. After I turned eighteen, I left the Shen Family, and I never returned once. Occasionally, I meet with Shen Lin due to our work. The number of times that I have met Mr. and Mrs. Shen in private is less than ten.”
The vice president frowned and looked at Shen Lin. Shen Lin clenched her teeth lightly. “Mei[1. Younger sister.], back then, you insisted on traveling alone abroad. Mom was really sad. You can’t hurt her again.”
“Vice president, let’s get on to the main topic.” Shen Qianshu cut Shen Lin off. She was too tired to deal with her nonsense.
Shen Lin remained calm. Shen Qianshu was a person who kept to her words and would never expose the secret. She, too, remained calm and composed.
The vice president was not interested in their personal hatred. “Shen Lin said that this set of works belong to you. Is that true?”
“Yes!”
The vice president asked Chen Wanwan. “Madam Chen Wanwan, is this set of works exclusively designed by BG’s designer Sara?”
“Yes!”
The vice president asked Shen Qianshu, “So, do you admit that you had committed an act of plagiarism on Sara’s works? How did you manage to get Sara’s works?”
Shen Qianshu smiled. “Vice president, I am an appraiser. It’s certainly no big deal for me to occasionally copy other designer’s works, is it? Firstly, I’m not using it for profit. Secondly, I’m not using it for trade. Why am I the one being targeted and blamed for?”
That was a really good and logical question.
It was because, on the day of the Jewelry Competition, Shen Lin had intentionally misled the audience into believing that Shen Qianshu was the one who plagiarized. Passersby loved ugly news from celebrities. Shen Qianshu had been really popular lately, and she could easily be put at the same level as A-List celebrities.
The moment this ugly news broke out and got passed around, more people focused on the plagiarism issue.
Furthermore, Shen Lin and Dream Star had been pointing Shen Qianshu out and pushing all the blame onto her.
The vice president took a deep breath. “Right, appraisers copying other’s works in private is indeed completely acceptable and perfectly fine. You did not use it for any trade, but Shen Lin had sent the wrong documents out.”
“If Shen Lin sent the wrong documents out, that is Shen Lin’s problem. I agreed to this confrontation because I wanted to ask Miss Shen Lin something. Why are the works I copied in private in your email? I have never shared a computer with you. After I turned eighteen, I have never lived with you again. Why are my belongings in your email?” Shen Qianshu sounded really serious. She was mad at Shen Lin, so mad that her tone sounded harsh.
This case was held in court and open to the public. This meant that the entire time, reporters were putting it on live-stream.
At this point in time, fans began realizing that Shen Qianshu and Shen Lin were all speaking differently. Nobody could tell who was lying.
“Honestly speaking, our little angel only copied a design. She got put through so much for no reason. How unlucky.”
“I bet Shen Lin is the one who intentionally plagiarized so that she could put our little angel in trouble.”
“My poor little angel… She got kicked out just because she wasn’t biological. Tong Hua, please crawl into my arms. I’ll give you a hug.”
…
Shen Lin seemed to slightly be panicking. Luckily, she had prepared for this. She smiled and said, “There was one time when Mom went to visit you. She happened to see this draft. Our family is interested in jewelry as well, and occasionally, we do some designing. So, she took it home. I was also thinking that I would gain some inspiration by looking at these works, so I accidentally saved it in my computer. I was in a hurry during the competition, so I sent the wrong documents.”
