Jiaochen - Chapter 58.6: Trust him conditionally (6)
Chapter 58.6: Trust him conditionally (6)
“Nope.”
Ji Qingying handed him her phone, “I’ve written a Weibo post. Help me check it.”
Fu Yanzhi took it and seriously checked.
After reading it, he nodded, “Quite good.”
Ji Qingying rested her head on his arms and said, “I’m sorry I troubled you again.”
Fu Yanzhi craned his neck and looked at her. He then started stroking her hair, “You aren’t troubling me at all.”
“I like helping you deal with these kinds of things.”
Ji Qingying didn’t know what to say.
Fu Yanzhi looked at her, “Sending it now?”
“Yes.”
Ji Qingying took the phone and clicked send.
When those gossip-hungry fellows saw the central figure of this scandal post on her Weibo, it was as if food was raining from the skies.
@JiQingYing: [My name is Ji Qingying. I’m sorry to have disturbed everyone because of my personal affairs. First of all, I’d like to thank everyone’s passionate concern for the fashion design industry. Having said that, I think it’s high time for me to speak up personally about this matter.]
[First, I never plagiarized. As for what really happened, within the next few days, evidence will be presented, so I’d advise everyone to save their scolding for when the real plagiarist is revealed.]
[Second, for those who said that I bribed the judges, don’t you feel sorry for those seniors of the fashion design industry? Do they seem like people you can easily bribe? All of them are well-respected in the industry, so please, you can keep scolding me, but at least don’t drag others into this.]
[Lastly, I, too, am eagerly waiting, together with everyone, for the truth to finally be revealed. A few years ago, I didn’t have the ability to deal with that incident because I was too weak. Now, I am no longer.]
[Thank you for reading this until the end. I’d like to thank all my friends who spoke up for me and supported me. The truth may have come late, but at least it’s coming.]
[Within minutes of posting it, many have already reposted it again.]
Ji Qingying saw that Yan Qiuzhi, Shen Muqing, and even Chen Lunan had not only started following her, they had even reposted it as well.
In addition to that, even the official blog of the Sanqing Design Company also started following her on Weibo and even issued their support for her.
@SanqingDesignGroup🗸: [Because Ji Qingying was the winner of the last competition, we’ve been able to work with her for quite a while now. She’s a designer that has her own unique ideas. She’s also able to produce works that are not only vibrant, but meaningful as well.]
This huge reversal, many netizens were confused.
Sanqing was a very well-known design company domestically and abroad, so why did they wait until now to unconditionally support Ji Qingying.
Even before everyone could react, someone else pointed out another Weibo post from another luxury brand.
It belonged to Anjia, a company that was equally as famous as Dijia and other international luxury brands. Moreover, it was the company that was employing Lin Xiaoshuang, who was a designer at their Head Office.
They had not only liked Ji Qingying’s long Weibo post, they then posted a dismissal notice.
@AnjiaChinaOfficialBlog🗸: After an internal investigation, it was found that Designer Lin (@LinXiaoShuang🗸) has repeatedly copied and imitated the works of several newly hired design assistants. Due to her many repeated offenses, we are hereby notifying Ms Lin that we are unilaterally terminating our contract. Our lawyers will be in touch with regards to any compensatory damages our group may seek due to her actions. If Ms Lin wishes to contest any of this, let us just meet in court.
As soon as this Weibo post came out, netizens were in an uproar.
This was… a company slaughtering their own designer. In an instant, everyone began to doubt the truth that has been presented to them.
Sanqing’s support for Ji Qingiyng is understandable.
But was there a need for Anjia to be so cruel to their own designer? What was the real reason? Everyone was dumbfounded.
In another shocking move, Sanqing posted copies of their lawyer’s legal complaints against Lin Xiaoshuang and those private netizens who publicly abused Ji Qingying.
They all stated that they will all be investigated.
This time was even more confusing. Sanqing’s support of Ji Qingying’s Weibo post could be explained because she was their competition winner, but what about the legal notices? Why are Sanqing’s lawyers sending letters on Ji Qingying’s behalf? Could she have already signed with Sanqing?
Everyone was furiously leaving comments on both companies’ official blogs, asking them to explain the real situation.
[Has Sanqing signed a contract with Ji Qingying? Why is Sanqing helping her with the lawsuits?]
[Damn, Anjia is awesome too! For such a large company to directly issue a notice of dismissal. Lin Xiaoshuang’s would probably be unable to work in the industry in the future.]
[Ahhhhhhh! I don’t know why, but this is so cool!]
[I suddenly realized that this year’s design winner must not be simple at all! Who said that she didn’t have a background?]
[Yan Qiuzhi and Chen Lunan stood by her side. This is too awesome!]
In fact, Sanqing replied to one of the questions they were asked about.
They clarified that they have yet to sign a contract with Ji Qingying, and that she remains to be an independent designer.
Just when everyone was even more confused, Sanqing posted on Weibo again.
But this time, their tone was a little less serious.
@SanqingDesignGroup🗸: [My name is Ye Qing. Seeing as the netizens are wondering why Sanqing is helping out Ji Qingying, in addition to personally wanting the real plagiarist to get their comeuppance, my son also threatened me.]
[He said that if Sanqing didn’t make a money, not only would I lose a son, I might also lose a daughter-in-law as well.]
Ye Qing then posted a screenshot of a conversation.
[Below is the message Fu Yanzhi sent me.]
Fu Yanzhi: [Mom, if I remember correctly, your lawyers are more experienced in this area. I’ll have Cheng Zhan trace those accounts that insulted Qingying on the Internet and give his findings to your lawyers. It’d be quicker if we dealt with them separately.]#Pleasereadthischapteratfoxaholic.com
Ye Qing: [Beg me and I’ll help you.]
Fu Yanzhi: [Well, if you don’t help me, not only will you lose a son, you might also lose a daughter-in-law.]
Ye Qing: [………]
The netizens were shocked and amused when this ridiculous conversation was revealed.
Sanqing did all this to protect a daughter-in-law?!
Ji Qingying also saw this Weibo post when it was going viral.
She stared at the screenshot for a long time before turning to look at Fu Yanzhi, “How could you threaten Auntie?!”
Fu Yanzhi took her into her arms and said, “In order not to die alone, this must be done.”
Ji Qingying was amused, “Thank you.”
She knew that whether it was Sanqing or Yan Qiuzhi, what everyone did was actually because of Fu Yanzhi.
Because Fu Yanzhi was her boyfriend, they will do their best to help her and trust her unequivocally.
Fu Yanzhi seemed to have done nothing, but in fact he was the cause of everything. He put all his pride away to approach all his friends and brothers, and even his parents, and lowered his head to them, to ask them for help. All because of her.
This arrogant man bowed his head for her private affairs.
When Ji Qingying thought about it, she could only bury her head into his arms. A thousand words wasn’t enough, but two sufficed: “Thank you.”
She didn’t know what else to say, other than ‘Thank you!’.
Fu Yanzhi felt the change in her mood and began stroking her hair. “If you say ‘thank you’ one more time, I won’t let you sleep tonight.”
To this, Ji Qingying replied, “…So are you saying you’ll let me sleep then?”
Fu Yanzhi finally laughed, relieved by the change of atmosphere, “You’ll be sleeping in my arms tonight.”
Ji Qingying blinked, “Okay then. I’ll be sleeping in your arms.”
She then touched his lips and asked, “Why are you so good to me?”
Fu Yanzhi brows raised, intrigued, “Hmm?”
He paused for a bit before saying, “Since you know I’m so good, you’ll have to listen to me from now on.”
Ji Qingying looked at him, “So what are you going to do tonight?”
Fu Yanzhi didn’t continue their little chat as he directly carried her into their room, “Go take a shower first before we go to sleep.”
