Chapter 444: Chapter 444 Li Wenjun live broadcast the scene of slapping in the face (first update)

“The next day.

It’s the Ji Baixin VS Li Wenjun design competition.

At 8 a.m.

All the media reporters of Jin City had gathered at the competition site, even some international media had arrived. Besides reporters, there were also 100 audience members on site, of which fifty were pure spectators and the other fifty consisted of editor-in-chiefs of fashion magazines, renowned designers, and fashion influencers among others. The site was bustling with a crowd in no time.

The entire competition was broadcasted live, albeit only live-streamed on the Milky Way platform, yet Milky Way’s audience accounted for three-quarters of Yanshang Country, constituting a large viewer base.

At 9 a.m.

The Alice Review Committee took their places.

The whole venue burst into applause.

Insiders knew that it was no easy task to get the Alice Review Committee to show up. The Alice Review Committee had only been to Yanshang Country once before for a global event, a design competition that attracted all the world-class magnates. The scale was massive. Now, they were here for two designers who were not too well-known, which was unprecedented for Alice and caused quite a stir.

No one knew exactly how Yin Qin was able to invite the Alice Review Committee, or even the founder of the Review Committee, Daniel Darren, to the event. It was an unprecedented formation.

The fact is that Yin Qin couldn’t have done it by himself. The process was very complex. It started when Yin Qin approached Ji Baijian. Ji Baijian had been back in Jin City for a quite a few days now. He hadn’t mentioned anything about all this and didn’t even ask. When Yin Qin asked him for a favor to invite the Alice Review Committee to Jin City, Ji Baijian agreed right away without saying anything. This was unlike Ji Baijian’s usual cunning style, making Yin Qin inexplicably annoyed as he always felt that Ji Baijian was plotting something.

Yes, scheming against him.

The reason Ji Baijian knew people from the Alice Review Committee was because Daniel Darren, the founder of the Alice Review Committee, and Lu Yicheng’s mother, Lu Manman, were long-time friends. Ji Baijian had a good relationship with Lu Yicheng, and that’s how they all became connected.

At times, Yin Qin truly admired Ji Baijian. He always felt that there probably wasn’t a dignitary in this world that Ji Baijian didn’t know. How was this possible? It appeared as if Ji Baijian was always one step ahead of him, very far ahead!

Nonsense.

Ji Baijian was decades older than him from the start. When Yin Qin was still being breastfed, Ji Baijian was already earning money!

9:50 a.m.

All was set.

The live broadcast began.

The host came on stage.

As it was not a profit-making program but merely a competition, there weren’t any flourishes to it. The host simply explained the rules and then exited the stage.

Li Wenjun and Ji Baixin entered.

The two mannequins on the stage were obscured by a white silk curtain.

After the host finished speaking.

The assistants of both persons opened the silk curtains on the mannequins simultaneously.

As soon as they unveiled it.

Everyone gasped.

Li Wenjun and Ji Baixin gazed at each other’s mannequins, both the outfits were identical, with only slight differences. At first glance, they looked exactly the same.

There was an immediate sensation onstage.

The color drained from Daniel’s face all at once.

He had traveled all this way for the sake of Mo Xiuyuan, yes, Mo Xiuyuan, the light of his heart, and certainly not for Lu Manman. He agreed to attend this crappy selection just for Mo, and it’s a joke that he was witnessing such a scene. What a waste of his time!

“What is going on?!” Daniel’s face darkened, and he announced in perfect international language, “Is this the standard for your Yanshang Country competitions?”

The host hurriedly came forward to smooth things over, reminding them, “I think the two designers should explain themselves now.”

Daniel kept his face impassive.

Li Wenjun picked up the mic and started, “Ji Baixin, I honestly didn’t expect that you would use my design! Knowing that today is our competition day, you used my stuff, don’t you feel ashamed? I really didn’t expect this. Did you use my stuff in your design, hoping that I perhaps would not use it? I really feel cold. After dating you for so long, I’ve never felt so insignificant as I do now. It’s really not worth it!”

“You should be saying that to yourself. For you, I endured alienation from others and withstood rumors and slanders! And you harm me so much for your reputation! I really regret it, I regret why I fell in love with you, why I even missed out on…” Ji Baixin pursed her lips, some words left unsaid.

Li Wenjun seemed hurt, “Why are you still making excuses even now?! We’ve broken up, why can’t you let me go?! Can’t we part on good terms? Can’t you make your own designs, can’t you refrain from plagiarizing me?!”

Ji Baixin really didn’t want to quarrel with Li Wenjun any longer.

She felt that arguing with this man anymore was just making her feel sick.

She said, “What makes you claim I plagiarized?”

“What makes me?” Li Wenjun had his assistant bring out his design drafts, “These are my design drafts from before. It includes today’s design which was designed while we were dating. At that time, I showed you all my ideas and communicated with you hoping to get some help from you. But I didn’t expect that you would directly use it for yourself. How can you do this?!”

Li Wenjun looked very angry, as if he had suffered a great injustice.

Ji Baixin scoffed, “You seem very well-prepared.”

Indeed, just as Yin Qin had predicted.

For winning, Li Wenjun could stoop as low as needed.

She said, “Just so, I too have proof to certify that you plagiarized me! And it wasn’t just once!”

Li Wenjun’s face changed subtly; there was half a second of panic, followed by a dismissive attitude, “What evidence can you have? You are the one who plagiarized me! Don’t fabricate anything. Don’t force me to resort to legal actions to protect my rights!”

Ji Baixin gave a cold smile.

She whispered something to her assistant who then descended the stage.

After a while, Anna appeared on stage.

Li Wenjun’s face turned ashen, completely so.

He glared at Anna. ”

Anna didn’t turn to look at Li Wenjun, her gaze shifted elsewhere.

It was time.

On the large stage screen, a scene suddenly appeared.

The scene showed Anna photographing Ji Baixin’s design in Ji Baixin’s office.

Li Wenjun’s face changed instantly.

Ji Baixin was really plotting against him?!

No.

It could be Yin Qin.

Ji Baixin wouldn’t think of all this.

Ji Baixin didn’t like to speculate on people’s hearts and didn’t like these schemes. She only lived her self-righteous, lofty life, immersing herself in her own work. She couldn’t make such a big fuss.

When the video ended, Ji Baixin looked at everyone and said, “As you all can see very clearly, Anna, a designer under my studio and also my assistant, secretly photographed my design after I finished it.”

“What does it matter to me if she photographed it?” Li Wenjun retorted, “Ji Baixin, you are really funny. You made this video to frame me. Don’t you feel ashamed?”

“As for who is responsible, the person involved will know.” Ji Baixin turned to Anna.

Anna held the microphone.

Li Wenjun warned, “Don’t make up stories, think about the consequences! If you frame me here, I will sue you. If you end up in jail, think about the collateral damage your family will suffer. I advise you not to be bought by Ji Baixin!”

Anna glanced at Li Wenjun, she knew exactly what he was implying.

She gritted her teeth.

Last night, after she sent the photos to Li Wenjun, Yin Qin and Ji Baixin returned. Before she had time to delete the message she had sent, her mobile was taken by Yin Qin and the whole truth was revealed. She had no excuses, so she confessed everything.

Surprisingly, Yin Qin and Ji Baixin didn’t blame her and told her that as long as she could testify against Li Wenjun in person, they would assure her that her son’s education would not be affected.

She exclaimed, “It was Li Wenjun who asked me to photograph it for him! He was afraid of losing, so he asked me to take the pictures. He plagiarized Ji Baixin’s designs, and it wasn’t just this once. The designs for the last ‘Friendship’ event were also given to him by me. He has been plagiarizing Ji Baixin!”

“What nonsense are you talking about! I don’t even know you. You say you sent things to me. Why did you send them? What benefit did I give you? Did I give you money? Show me the evidence! I’ll let the police investigate my bank account. All the money I have can be accounted for!” Li Wenjun questioned Anna fiercely.

Anna clenched the microphone, unable to utter a word for a long time.

Li Wenjun sneered.

He knew Anna wouldn’t dare to disclose her past.

He said to everyone, “See? It’s just Ji Baixin deliberately slandering me through her subordinate designer. It’s all a show she purposely staged! Ji Baixin, it’s a pity that I loved you for so many years. You turn out to be such a vile person. How could your heart be so cruel?”

Ji Baixin’s face turned pale at Li Wenjun’s words.

She turned to look at Anna.

Anna’s face was also very unsightly. She took a deep breath and said, “It was Li Wenjun threatening me! Because I once studied abroad for a while and had a relationship with Li Wenjun, but I was already married at that time. He had pictures of our affair, threatened me, saying if I did not help him, he would send the video to my husband, and also to my son’s school. I had no choice but to follow his instructions!”

Li Wenjun was shaking with anger, but he still insisted, “Ji Baixin, for the sake of beating me, you can even come up with such despicable methods. I don’t know this woman at all. She said she had been with me? What other vile methods do you have? Just spit them all out at once! It’s so ironic!”

“I have evidence.” Anna said.

Li Wenjun looked at Anna.

“I have evidence to prove that I was indeed with Li Wenjun, I have a video of us in bed!” Anna announced bluntly.

“Do you? Take it out then! If you have it, play it in front of the whole country!” Li Wenjun threatened, betting on her lack of courage to do so.

Anna was trembling.

Ji Baixin stepped forward, facing Li Wenjun, she said word by word, “Just because you are shameless, doesn’t mean that everyone else is!”

“So there isn’t. Everything is indeed your design, your arrangement!” Li Wenjun insisted, “Ji Baixin, without any evidence, don’t keep shaming yourself here. I advise you to admit it, admit that you plagiarized so you don’t lose too disgracefully!”

“I have other evidence.” Anna said, and pulled out her mobile phone, placing the microphone next to it.

A recording started playing from the phone.

“Enough, I’ve already given it to you…”

“I haven’t said anything yet…”

“Anyway, I absolutely won’t promise you this time…”

“…I’m simply asking you to watch Ji Baixin throughout…”

“What do you want with her designs….”

“In order to know how to beat her, I need her designs…”

The recording’s words were clearly heard by everyone present.

The voices in the recording belonged to Li Wenjun and Anna.

Li Wenjun’s face changed instantly.

It turned deathly pale.

He hadn’t imagined that Anna would betray him.

That she would record their phone calls.

Everyone was staring directly at Li Wenjun, watching as he completely crumbled. He looked as if he had been drained of life, his face stricken with embarrassment!
