Chapter 351

Chen Shiya's face turned pale after hearing this, and she hurriedly opened her mouth to defend herself: "President Qiao, no, listen to my explanation... There must be some misunderstanding!"

The alarm bell in her heart rang loudly. If she was really labeled as plagiarism by Yan Qingxue today, then she would have no future in the fashion circle.

In just a few seconds, she fought between heaven and man in her heart and immediately made a choice.

She was sure that Yan Qingxue had no evidence of her plagiarism, so she denied it: "I don't know any sketchbook at all, and I didn't pick it up. This dress worn by Xu Zong today is completely designed by myself, without any reference. President Qiao, you must believe me."

"I and Miss Yan did have some misunderstandings before, but I would never do such a self-destructive act as plagiarism. Now that Miss Yan pointed out that I plagiarized the inspiration in her lost sketchbook, then I hope she can provide strong evidence to prove her words."

"Miss Yan, you said you lost the sketchbook, then where did you lose the sketchbook?"

Chen Shiya raised her chin, looking at Yan Qingxue with a confrontational attitude, and there was a provocative look in her eyes. She didn't believe Yan Qingxue could provide solid evidence.

Yan Qingxue smiled faintly after hearing this, and said casually: "It's just a draft sketchbook, I can draw it again at any time, and the sketchbook has been lost for so long, how could I keep it in mind for such a small matter."

"Designer Chen, what do you mean by this? Are you saying I am slandering you? Or do you think I took a fancy to your design, so I deliberately said so, wanting to take your design as my own?"

Chen Shiya's provocative look froze on her face, her brain was blank, and the people around her also stepped back automatically with some disdain and kept a distance from her.

How is this possible? Teacher Annie is a red man in the fashion circle, and her status is second only to the president and vice president. What reason does she have to slander a newcomer designer?

"Chen Shiya, don't talk nonsense. I don't even look at your design, let alone Teacher Annie, who can draw several design drafts a day. How could she lie because of an ordinary design draft?"

"Yes, Designer Chen, you'd better explain why the dress you designed yourself is similar to the design in Teacher Annie's lost sketchbook."

Chen Shiya saw that the designers around immediately changed their positions, and shouted at Yan Qingxue angrily: "Yan Qingxue, don't talk nonsense! My works are all designed by myself, how could they be similar to yours? If you want to prove that I plagiarized, take out solid evidence, otherwise I will say that you borrowed my creativity when you drew the draft!"

"Oh? Is that so?" Yan Qingxue said in a flat tone: "Since Designer Chen is unwilling to admit it, then forget it. I just saw that the dress on Xu Zong on stage was a bit familiar, and I didn't want to confront you."

"But it's just an ordinary design draft. I didn't take it to heart when I lost the sketchbook, otherwise I wouldn't have let that sketchbook wander outside without looking for it."

"However, if you really like my design, I still have many unsatisfactory drafts at home. I can organize them and take them to you. After all, we have worked together before. If you want my design draft, just say it, no need to go to such great lengths."

"Yan Qingxue!" Chen Shiya gritted her teeth, almost driven crazy.

Although she said so lightly that she didn't want to pursue it, she couldn't even take out solid evidence, but she buckled the crime of plagiarism on her head in three or two sentences.

Yan Qingxue is now a red man in the fashion circle, a genius designer who is sought after by countless big-name stars, and also a special consultant of the Huaxia Fashion Association. Under such a huge identity gap, it is needless to say who others will stand on.

Those who were indignant and spoke for Chen Shiya before Yan Qingxue's identity was revealed seemed to have amnesia at this time, and began to blame her one after another.

"I thought Chen Shiya had some talent, but I didn't expect this talent to be obtained by plagiarism."

"Too ridiculous, people Teacher Annie didn't take the waste drafts seriously, she actually treated them as treasures and used them in her own design, and she didn't feel ashamed."

"I didn't expect that Chen Shiya, who claimed to love design and would continue to work hard, actually plagiarized, and she copied Teacher Annie's work. How did she have the confidence to question Teacher Annie and let Teacher Annie provide evidence?"

"What is Teacher Annie's status, how could she have trouble with this unknown person, how could she slander her."

The identities of Yan Qingxue and Chen Shiya are too far apart. One is a genius designer who has just won an award and took office as a special consultant of the Huaxia Fashion Association, and the other is just a design newcomer who has barely been shortlisted. It is needless to say who everyone will believe.

No one would believe that a genius designer, a big man with a certain reputation in the circle, would steal the work of a newcomer designer who has not yet become famous.

What's more, this newcomer designer's design is at most above the passing line, and it can't be called amazing at all. It is asked which great god-level designer would steal this kind of worthless design, which is impossible.

Chen Shiya's eyes were red with anger, and she tried her best to explain, but she didn't know how to explain.

Yan Qingxue saw her looking like she had suffered a loss and couldn't refute, and the corners of her lips hooked up slightly, and a cold light flashed in her eyes.

Yes, she really has no evidence, and there is no so-called sketchbook at all. But so what? Just by her reputation now, no one will question her pointing out that Chen Shiya plagiarized her inspiration. Even without evidence, many people will stand up for her and sit down on the evidence of the other party's plagiarism.

From now on, Chen Shiya will never be able to achieve any achievements in the fashion circle, and the crime of plagiarist will accompany her for a lifetime.

Yan Qingxue said she lost a sketchbook. Everyone cannot estimate how many waste drafts are in the sketchbook. In the future, any design of Chen Shiya will be linked to that lost sketchbook, making her unable to argue.

Of course, Xu Rixin, who trusts and reuses a plagiarist, is naturally in a very bad situation. The name of the new noble in the entertainment industry is afraid to end here.

You know, Qiao Yan is particularly cherishing talent. If it is a designer she likes, she will do her best to maintain it. Therefore, even if there is no clear evidence that Chen Shiya stole Yan Qingxue's sketchbook, she also announced on the spot that Chen Shiya was blacklisted by the Huaxia Fashion Association, and even threatened not to welcome her to attend the internal cocktail party of the Fashion Association.
