Chapter 1937: Chapter 1937: Mirror World (14)
Cheng Mu was not a person with much patience; after waiting for a while, he became restless and turned to buy two lollipops at a nearby convenience store.
He came out chewing on a lollipop just as the school was letting out.
The sounds of students laughing and playing grew closer, followed by the first group of students rushing out of the school gate.
Cheng Mu’s face was quite striking, standing there attracting the attention of many.
Some bolder ones even came over to chat him up.
Cheng Mu wasn’t in the mood to entertain these people, his gaze remained fixed on the school gate.
"So handsome!!"
"He’s definitely not from our school, here to pick someone up maybe?"
"I want to know which school he’s from."
"Ahhh, he’s looking over here." The girls suppressed their excited screams, jostling near Cheng Mu.
At the school gate, a girl with a backpack appeared in Cheng Mu’s line of sight, she was holding a book, talking to her classmate beside her with a radiant smile.
She looked even better in person than in the photos.
Cheng Mu lifted his foot to move towards her, but then a phrase suddenly echoed in his mind— "I don’t recommend you look for the 2019 version of me."
Cheng Mu retracted his stepping foot, kicked a small pebble by the roadside, and licked the lollipop with the tip of his tongue, before quickly turning to leave.
-
2029.
Chuzheng wasn’t aware that Cheng Mu had gone looking for her at that time; she was logging into her long-unused Weibo, which was piled up with messages— insults directed at her.
Chuzheng cleared those messages, edited a post, attached images, and sent it out.
Yuk Chuzheng V: Falling Flowers Startle the Swans series [Image][Image]
Two attached images, the first shows a pure white little dress with a strong Chinese wind element, meticulously made, flowing like a fairy.
The second one is a gradient from white transitioning into cherry blossom pink, with the color deepening at the hem, embroidered with falling flowers.
The light breeze softly floats, petals falling in profusion.
Just looking at the clothes, one can almost feel that kind of ambiance.
Hardly had Chuzheng posted this on Weibo when someone immediately arrived on the scene.
[First comment.]
[Which work has this plagiarizing dog copied again?]
[Whoa, so dreamy? Just hit my moe spot!!!]
[This material... Damn, looks like something I could never afford.]
[How does she still have the face to show up? This design, no matter how good-looking, it’s someone else’s design, please have some shame.]
Aside from a few good comments, most were insulting her.
Chuzheng quickly climbed the trending topics, slotted at the tail end.
#Yuk Chuzheng Plagiarism#
Dai Mi received the news and felt conflicted, but in the end, bit the bullet and had the company’s official blog share Chuzheng’s post.
And then...
Then the official blog also fell.
[What the hell, what is this? Why would Van Carla share this plagiarizing dog?]
[You must be careful, this is a habitual plagiarist, don’t lose the big picture for a small gain.]
[Your brand has always had a good reputation, one rotten apple can spoil the whole bunch, wake up!!]
This brand had a good reputation domestically, so the comments underneath urged them to wake up and not associate with a plagiarizing dog.
Dai Mi: "..."
The plagiarizing dog is my boss, what can I do!!
She said she would cover all losses; the benefits are in place, and the higher-ups aren’t saying anything, what can I do!!
The best solution is to turn a blind eye.
So no matter how much ruckus there was online, Dai Mi’s side ordered that no one was allowed to get involved in this mess.
Thus, after the share, the official blog went dead silent.
Not posting the usual few shares a day.
Leaving that share firmly in the center spotlight.
To the netizens, this action undoubtedly seemed like an act of defiance, letting the plagiarizing dog debut at the center stage.
So a large wave of netizens, trying to wake them up, began launching personal attacks—even though they hadn’t found the evidence to prove these works were plagiarized yet.
Chuzheng later posted a few more images, and also posted detailed close-ups.
But apart from that, she said nothing.
-
Yu Shi also saw the images Chuzheng posted, flipping through Chuzheng’s Weibo with a faint smile on her lips.
"Yu Shi, this needs your signature."
Yu Shi put down her phone and signed the document brought over by the assistant.
The assistant glanced at her: "Yu Shi, you seem in a good mood? Is there something to be happy about?"
Because Yu Shi was usually easy to talk to, the assistant dared to ask such a question.
"I got some inspiration." Yu Shi smiled.
The assistant also smiled: "Yu Shi is really amazing, you know."
The assistant’s flattery made Yu Shi happy, and the benefit was being able to leave work early.
Other colleagues looked enviously at the assistant.
Why couldn’t they have a good boss?
Yu Shi needed to focus on her work, so she couldn’t let the assistant hover around.
She had thought she would spend her life in mediocrity, but she never imagined... she’s now the protagonist.
Yu Shi had always disliked Yuk Chuzheng, even from when she was young.
Even though they were just a wall apart, their situations were worlds apart.
She disliked Yuk Chuzheng, who was always led by her parents, with a radiant smile, like a little princess.
And hated even more how outstanding she was, always praised by the neighbors.
Yu Shi always thought that if not for her family circumstances, she could be as excellent as Yuk Chuzheng.
So when she discovered her own uniqueness, her first thought was to strip away everything from her and put her beneath her feet.
The smile in Yu Shi’s eyes carried a hint of malice as she started hunching over the desk to draw.
Chuzheng posted such detailed information, making it more convenient for Yu Shi.
-
Chuzheng posted such detailed content, intending for Yu Shi to copy it.
Sure enough, it wasn’t long before someone dug up evidence claiming it was a work of their goddess Yu Shi.
Yu Shi had altered quite a bit, but at first glance, it would make one think of similarities.
Just like before, evidence from years ago was quickly unearthed, solidifying the slam dunk on Chuzheng’s plagiarism.
Chuzheng wasn’t in a hurry, no matter how people jumped online.
Finally, Yu Shi tagged her at night, stating that if she didn’t take down these works, she would sue her.
Yuk Chuzheng V: Sue me? You?
Four words, brazenly arrogant.
[Damn! Despite all the evidence, she’s still so arrogant, who gives her the right.]
[Yu Shi should have sued her to bankruptcy long ago, a plagiarizing dog is truly heartless.]
[Van Carla must be insane to go along with her, everyone let’s boycott their stuff!!]
[Never seen such an arrogant plagiarist.]
[Support Yu Shi to sue her!]
Yu Shi looked at the comments below; although some words were displeasing, they were quickly replaced by delight.
She believed her evidence was on higher ground, so she soon sent a lawyer’s letter to Chuzheng.
What did Chuzheng do?
She also sent a lawyer’s letter, suing her for plagiarism.
Yu Shi’s eyes widened, not knowing where Yuk Chuzheng got the guts to dare sue her for plagiarism in the face of such evidence.
Chuzheng being this bold left even the bystander netizens a bit dumbfounded.
A plagiarizing dog dare challenge the original author?
This doesn’t fit the norm.
Normally, one would hide away, or at most clear their name, who outright sues?
You’ve got evidence, huh?!
