Lu Miao turned to look at the person at the door and was slightly stunned. Why was it him?
Lu Siyu’s face turned pale the moment she saw him. She said in a panic,” Brother, what are you talking about? Mom told us to get along well this morning. Even if you don’t like me, you can’t slander me like this because of someone else.”
Lu Yinan looked at her with a complicated expression. He knew that Lu Siyu was trying to tell him that if he did this, Qin Shuang would be angry.
However, their family had already let Lu Miao down.
He could not change the attitude of his parents and family. All he could do was not to hurt her and to protect her as much as he could.
“I didn’t slander you. Three days ago, when I made plans to have dinner with Xiaoyang, you happened to come looking for me and said you had something to take care of. Later, Xiaoyang realized that his access card was missing, thinking he accidentally left it in the office. The surveillance footage showed that it was during that time when his access card went missing.”
Lu Siyu gritted her teeth and stubbornly denied, “That doesn’t prove that I took the access card.”
Lu Yinan looked at her with immense disappointment. He didn’t expect that even at this point, Lu Siyu still wouldn’t admit it.
“That piece of clothing was the birthday gift I gave you last year, a limited edition customized by Givenchy. The print on each person’s clothing is individually customized. The one I customized for you has the initials ‘SY,’ which stands for Siyu. There is only one piece like that in the world, and no one else could have it.”
Previously, he thought that Lu Siyu disliked Lu Miao because she was young and suddenly found out that she wasn’t their biological sibling, worrying that Lu Miao would take away the love and favor of their parents and relatives. But he didn’t think she had a bad nature.
However, this time, she went to extreme measures to eliminate Lu Miao, willingly using him to steal the questions, disregarding the honor and dignity of the country, and conspiring with that contestant from R country against Lu Miao.
This wasn’t just a matter of being young and ignorant; it was a matter of character, and her nature was simply too malicious.
As Lu Yinan’s words fell, everyone in the office simultaneously looked at the person on the screen in the video.
The front of the jacket was indeed a floral font with the letters SY.
Having been part of the Lu family for so many years, Mr. and Mrs. Lu had always treated Lu Siyu as a socialite, providing her with the best in terms of food and clothing.
There were countless luxury brands in the cabinet, so she did not notice anything different about this dress.
Being exposed by Lu Yinan in front of everyone, Lu Siyu felt as if her clothes had been stripped off and she was standing naked in public. Her face couldn’t have looked uglier.
Especially her vehement refutations just now, they now felt like slaps, one after another, harshly striking her face.
The truth of the matter was clear. The program’s chief executive announced in front of everyone that the semifinals were invalidated due to cheating, and the contestant from R country was directly disqualified from the competition.
“I don’t accept this. It’s not like I cheated on my own. I only took a look at what others sent me, and it was during the performance that I realized it was the challenge project. Even if she didn’t send it to me, I could still defeat all of you,” the contestant from R country argued cunningly.
Lu Miao raised an eyebrow slightly. “Alright then, I’ll make myself convinced and satisfied. We don’t need a new set of questions, just the one you saw the answers for yesterday. The person in charge will randomly select one while disrupting the arrangement of the shapes. If you can beat me, I’ll withdraw from the program right away.”
Using the questions he had seen the answers for in a rematch was even harsher than using new questions. It was like he had already done all the exam questions, while Lu Miao knew nothing.
If, under these circumstances, he still lost, then it could only mean that he and Lu Miao were simply not on the same level.
The person in charge quickly brought up the challenge from yesterday, scrambled the order of the shapes on the spot, and randomly selected one.
The result was no surprise.
Lu Miao took 15 seconds on his first attempt and only 10 seconds on his second.
His time decreased with each attempt.
The contestant from R country, on the other hand, struggled for a long time and finally answered after 30 seconds.
The verdict was clear.
The contestant from R country could only leave in disappointment.
The program team decided that Lu Siyu would bear the full responsibility for the economic losses caused by the leaked questions. The person in charge immediately reached out to the leaders of the television station, and after discussions, it was decided to revoke Lu Siyu’s participation in “Idol 99” and impose a ban on her participation in all programs of Lychee TV in the future.
This punishment was essentially a direct blacklisting of Lu Siyu by Litchi TV. Lu Siyu, halfway through the program, was sent back to pack her things and leave.
The person in charge then announced the rescheduling of the semifinals.
Lu Miao walked out of the office and saw Lu Yinan waiting outside. She walked directly toward him.
She hadn’t expected that Lu Yinan would step forward without hesitation to expose Lu Siyu in this matter..
