The entire audience was amazed by Jiang Yining’s beauty and talent.
However, Yan Ruo secretly dialed a number. She didn’t speak to the other party. After the phone rang six times, she hung up directly.
This was their prearranged signal.
Almost at the same time.
Yang Ni brought a large group of reporters and rushed into the conference venue.
All the reporters aimed their cameras at the center of the stage.
Yang Ni rushed to Jiang Yining and slammed the table. She shouted, “Jiang Yining, you plagiarized my work! What right do you have to speak as a student representative!? What qualifications do you have!” She turned to look at the school leader next to her and yelled, “Isn’t Qing University the best school? Don’t you care about the issue of students plagiarizing? Are you just going to stand by and let Jiang Yining act recklessly? Have you been bribed by Lu Zhi?”
She was so agitated that the microphone buzzed.
The reporters who followed her in also aimed their microphone at Jiang Yining.
“Miss Jiang, what is your response to the plagiarism accusation? Are you innocent? Or is what Ms. Yang Ni said true?”
“Miss Jiang, please give a positive response to the plagiarism accusation!”
“Miss Jiang, don’t you feel guilty for causing so much pain to Ms. Yang Ni?”
All the reporters spoke at the same time, and the scene was extremely chaotic.
Yang Ni also covered her face and burst into tears. She looked very pitiful.
The students sitting below also discussed animatedly.
They thought, “What was going on?”
Yan Ruo stepped forward and said, “We’re in the middle of a meeting. Please leave.”
The school leaders also said, “Please leave first. We’ll do the interview after we finish the meeting.”
“Miss Yan, you’re a senior in the comic world. Why are you speaking up for a plagiarizer?” Yang Ni accused, “I’ve liked your comics for a long time. You disappoint me.”
Yan Ruo looked at Jiang Yining with a troubled expression and said, “Miss Jiang, why don’t you give them an explanation? It’s not a good thing to continue making a fuss like this.”
The school leaders, the Education Bureau officials, about 3,000 students, and dozens of media outlets were all here.
If Jiang Yining didn’t give a clear explanation, she wouldn’t be able to step down from the stage.
But this was exactly what Yan Ruo and Yuan Luochen wanted.
Jiang Yining looked steadily at Yan Ruo in front of her and said, “Do I need to explain anything? If I didn’t plagiarize, then I didn’t. 1 am the victim in this case. Are you all now pressuring me and assuming that I am the plagiarizer?”
“It’s not that we are saying it this way. Evidence has been presented. But you haven’t presented anything… No wonder we doubt you,” Yan Ruo said hypocritically.
Yang Ni shouted, “You’re just a person who doesn’t have any foundation in painting. How can you paint like a master of traditional Chinese painting? I have been studying traditional Chinese painting for almost twelve years! Jiang Yining, I’ve seen shameless people before, but I’ve never seen someone as shameless as you!”
Jiang Yining pursed her lips and smiled faintly as she said, “Yang Ni, when we met privately before, your words weren’t like this.”
Yang Ni’s eyes flickered, and she said, “I did meet you! But that was because you wanted to bribe me with money to shut me up! Unfortunately, I don’t care about your petty money! I only want justice!”
Jiang Yining said, “It’s really ironic that the word ‘justice’ comes out of your mouth.”
“Isn’t it ironic when it comes from your mouth?” Yang Ni sneered, “I’m telling you, if you don’t return my work and apologize to me publicly, I’ll fight you to the death!”
Yan Ruo timely stepped forward and said, “Yining, considering how well you paint, you should have a master, right? Why don’t you invite your master out and let everyone see? This way, you can prove your innocence.”
The two of them echoed each other and forced Jiang Yining into a desperate situation.
The school officials and the Director of Education also looked at her with complicated expressions.
They seemed to be waiting for her response.
Jiang Yining said after a moment of silence, “I don’t have a master.”
The whole scene erupted into an uproar.
They thought, “How could she draw so well without a master? Was this not a joke?”
Yan Ruo pretended to be surprised and said, “You didn’t have a master to teach you. Did you rely solely on self-study? Yining, we are friends, and I would like to stand on your side, but I’m really sorry… Your way of handling this is too…”
She didn’t say the rest of her words, but everyone present knew what she meant.
That was, Jiang Yining had indeed plagiarized!
Therefore, she couldn’t produce any evidence to prove herself!
“You said you didn’t plagiarize! Jiang Yining, you’re such a scoundrel!”
