Plagiarism

It took a while before Xu Qingman processed what happened. After that, she suddenly thought of something and said, "Xin Xin…let's discuss something." Xu Qingman kissed up to Mo Lixin and the latter felt goosebumps appearing on her body. 

"Speak…"

"Well, can I be the model for your designs in the future?"

"Sure. I have been thinking about this in the past. It's just that the 12 wedding dress designs were my first creations ever since leaving the house to work. The wedding designs were a bit risky, so I didn't find you."

"Really?"

"Really!" Mo Lixin felt helpless. Xu Qingman had a tall figure and she looked mixed-race, very suitable as a model. After graduation, she also went to pursue this path, but she didn't have a good opportunity, so she still remained unpopular. 

"Then let's go. I'm going to buy some things today and you'll pay for it. Treat this as remuneration as being your model." Xu Qingman said since her best friend's money was her earned money. She didn't feel guilty about spending Mo Lixin's money at all. 

Uh…that seems like the case, but how come it seems a bit off? Mo Lixin thought in her heart. 

"Xin Xin, look here. Look at your wedding designs and the designs in that wedding store. The designs look very similar. But they can't be compared to yours at all. Why don't we go and take a look?"

Mo Lixin followed Xu Qingman's gaze and also looked over. Indeed, the designs were incredibly similar. 

The two went to the store, but before they could get in, they were blocked by the salesperson. 

"Miss., we're not recruiting cleaners." The woman said this in contempt. 

Why wouldn't Xu Qingman understand this? They were wearing ordinary clothes. Although their clothes were clean, in these people's eyes, if they weren't wearing brand-name clothing, they were poor people. People typically acted like snobs towards them. 

"We're here to look at the wedding dresses. What? You won't let us in now? What if we are your noble customers?" Xu Qingman said confidently. She hated people like them.

The two salespersons in their 30s allowed them inside in the end. Mo Lixin glanced at the wedding dresses and felt overwhelmed with emotions; even more, she was a bit angry. 

There weren't many wedding dresses, but each one applied her Starry Sky wedding design elements. She wasn't in a good mood. If they were able to make her designs exquisitely, she might not be as angry. However, they just churned out large quantities without regard for quality. 

"Who is this designer?!" Mo Lixin suddenly asked. 

"What? You're going to pretend like you understand even though you really don't? Even if I tell you, you won't understand. Do you remember the very popular Starry Sky series of wedding dress designs on the internet? The designer of the wedding dresses is that person's junior brother."

The salesperson who barely said anything responded this time While speaking of the Starry Sky designs, she was fascinated and proud, as if she was the one that had designed the series. 

"I know about Miao Bai, but…I didn't know she had any junior brothers." Mo Lixin snorted.

"You… What do you know? You naturally don't know anything about the higher-ups!" The salesperson retorted. 

"That's right. If you're not going to buy, then leave. People like you guys are the hardest to serve!" Another salesperson added. 

Mo Lixin was about to talk when a tall man with a built figure walked in. He looked to be mixed-race and also looked incredibly handsome. Compared to Ji Nanfeng, he wasn't any worse either. However, there were some differences as one was an elegant man while the other was charming and handsome. 

"Since when can plagiarized clothes be up for display?" That man said. 

The salesperson was enchanted by this man that she didn't even care about what the man was saying. 

For a moment, Mo Li held curiosity towards the man too. She raised her eyebrows and asked, "Why do you think that these wedding designs were plagiarized?"

"You can easily tell. These clothes were made from formula and abided by the design, instead of adding their own touch to it. Compared to the Starry Sky designs, it's not lacking just by a little… What? Did you notice it too?" As Gong Zeyun said this, his gaze darkened as he stared at Mo Lixin. 

However, Mo Lixin only cared about the wedding dress designs, instead of paying attention to his gaze. He didn't gaze at her like a stranger, but rather a lover that had known her for a while. 

"I understand. I understand quite a bit." How could she not understand what she had designed? However, who knew that she would encounter someone plagiarizing her designs.
