Lovely Substitute Bride

Chen Na said anxiously.    

Luan Zhi, however, looked calm as she continued, "A few days ago, I saw an almost identical design in the magazine. It should be available in China as well."    

After saying that, she turned her head towards the other side of the stage and slightly nodded her head.    

Duo Duo, who had been waiting at the side, quickly nodded her head.    

"Got it, Mommy!"    

At this moment, everyone saw a little girl with a ponytail standing on the other side of the stage. Her eyes were sparkling, and her round face was full of smiles. The two adorable dimples in her cheeks were even more pleasing.    

Ye Ci ran to the side of the stage and placed something on the projector. Soon, a picture appeared on the big screen.    

The picture was split in half. Two sets of nearly identical designs were quickly recognizable by the audience. One of them was Chen Na's design for today!    

"What's going on? The two designs are the same? "    

"It can't really be like what Luan Zhi said, right? It was copied by Chen Na's designer? "    

The word 'plagiarism' instantly stung everyone's nerves.    

In the design circle, everyone was well aware of how serious plagiarism was. As a student of Master Chi Lee, Chen Na didn't expect to do such a thing.    

Luan Zhi continued, "Everyone should be able to see that these two designs are almost identical. "Yesterday, this was a new model released just a week ago overseas, and yesterday, this was Chen Na's design today."    

Upon hearing these words, Chen Na's face turned completely pale, and she started to panic.    

It was simply self-defeating.    

Chi Lee, who was standing to the side, glared at her fiercely before speaking up. "There are a lot of designs on the market now, but there are only a few of them. Having one or two similar designs is unavoidable."    

When Chen Na heard that, she hurriedly said as if she was grabbing onto the last straw of hope, "That's right! That's it! I've never seen this design before. "    

However, Luan Zhi remained unflustered as she said flatly, "I had already guessed that you would say that. After all, isn't this the method that Master Chi Lee personally handed to you?"    

Chi Lee abruptly opened her eyes wide as a burst of fear surged in her heart.    

But she had been in the design circle for so long, so she quickly regained her composure and asked, "What do you mean by that? "Don't slander me!"    

Luan Zhi raised her voice slightly and said, "The reason Chen Na did that was all because of you! Because in the past few decades, 80% of your works have been copied! "    

After those words were spoken, everyone went into an uproar and loudly discussed. They all felt that it was hard to believe.    

Luan Zhi didn't give Chi Lee any time to retort and said sternly, "Do you still remember the first time we met? Everyone was gathered at the venue. I was curious about the qipao you were wearing at that time. I clearly saw it somewhere else, but you said it was your own design. "    

"After I went back, I casually checked and found that each of your designs can be found in some foreign magazines. It's almost exactly the same! What a coincidence. You yourself said that two lightnings could be used for the same reason. If it was a hundred, a thousand, then what? Is there really such a coincidence in the world? "    

"You!"    

"What happened?" Chi Lee looked even more flustered. Don't talk nonsense! "    

Luan Zhi looked at her coldly. Without explaining anything, she raised her voice and shouted.    

"Duo Duo!" I'll leave the rest to you! "    

"No problem!" "Mommy!" A babyish voice rang out as his fingers quickly controlled the machine.    

Soon, the image on the screen changed and a new photo appeared!    

It was also a comparative photo!    

Soon, the audience realized that there was another design in the picture that Chi Lee had previously published.    

And the two designs in the photo were very similar!    

Almost exactly the same!    

Luan Zhi continued, "The design in the photo is a work that was previously published by Chi Lee. The other is a design that I found on a foreign website. However, these designs are not widely publicized, so the people in the country do not know about it. "    

"In addition to these, there are many more examples."    

As she spoke, the flowers in the backstage constantly switched photos.    

In just a minute, over a hundred different designs were displayed.    

The entire audience was in an uproar. Even the outsiders could clearly see that these designs were very similar. Clearly, they were plagiarism.    

Chi Lee had copied it!    

If this had happened before, even if it had only been said out loud, it would definitely have provoked a wave of curses from the crowd.    

In their eyes, Chi Lee had already become a representative of the design world.    

But when this evidence appeared in front of them, even if they didn't want to believe it, there was nothing they could do.    

Chi Lee, who was standing on the stage, had a pale face.    

She had been in the design circle for so long, yet there had never been a mistake. She never expected Luan Zhi to poke her out.    

Everyone's gazes fell on Chi Lee, and they all became suspicious. She knew clearly in her heart that if they were to be discovered, they would be done for in the future.    

But even if she wanted to explain, she couldn't.    

Luan Zhi took another step forward with an imposing manner and asked in a cold voice, "What more do you have to say now?"    

Chi Lee looked at her surroundings and said through gritted teeth, "I did learn from some of their elements, but that was only for the sake of everyone!"    

When she said this, everyone present frowned.    

Chi Lee's expression changed. She raised her hand to wipe the corners of her eyes and whined, "The situation back then, the domestic design was unable to gain a foothold in the world. If it weren't for those designs, how could you be here today?"    

When everyone below the stage heard this, they gasped in shock.    

This was clearly trying to force the truth out of him!    

Chi Lee had cheated everyone for so many years, and she actually said that it was for everyone?    

How shameless!    

A few of them were so angry that their faces were flushed red as they shouted in anger.    

"I didn't expect you to be this kind of person, I really misjudged you!"    

"To think that we had always treated you like a master and kept praising your copied work to the skies. I wonder how the people from abroad have mocked us after seeing us like this for so many years."    

"Even if we don't plagiarize, we can still earn respect!"    

They cursed angrily. A few of them were so emotional that they almost charged forward.    

Chi Lee was so frightened that she retreated a few steps and became flustered.    

"All of this is for you... "Ahhh!"    

Before she could finish, a bottle of mineral water was thrown at her feet.    

"Scram!"    

The audience below the stage was furious. They picked up the things in their hands and began throwing them on the internet!    

More and more miscellaneous objects were thrown up, including water bottles, and leftover garbage bags. Soon, the entire stage was filled with them.
