2257 Twins

There was a hint of weakness and concession in her pitiful eyes.

Qiao Weiyang understood that someone had indeed copied her design, and Qiao Jierou was the instigator.

As for Lin Heng, he completely believed that Qiao Jierou would not do such a thing.

Lin Heng also said, “Jierou is right. Weiyang, you can’t make claims like this. It’s normal for your inspirations to be similar. After all, you’re sisters and have worked together for so many years.”

“Okay. In other words, you didn’t use my designs, right?” Qiao Weiyang asked. Her tone was clear, but it was a little aggressive.

“No!” Qiao Jierou straightened her neck and said.

Lin Heng looked at Qiao Weiyang deeply. “Weiyang, Jierou and I have indeed let you down, but you have to believe Jierou in this matter.”

Qiao Weiyang didn’t know what to say to Lin Heng.

She said calmly, “Alright, I’ve said what I wanted to say. You can leave now.”

Lin Heng held Qiao Jierou’s hand and turned to leave.

“Brother Heng, thank you for believing me so much,” Qiao Jierou said gently. “I really didn’t expect Sister to accuse me like that. When I was interviewed, I even spoke up for her…”

“But it’s not her fault. In the previous articles, the reporters casually accused her of plagiarism. They must have hurt her self-esteem.” Lin Heng stroked her hair. “It’s understandable that she’s a little angry. And those designers, why would they accept interviews for no reason?”

Seeing that he was still speaking up for Qiao Weiyang, Qiao Jierou was a little unhappy, but she had no choice but to endure it. “Brother Heng, I’m afraid that with Sister’s temper, she’ll say it’s her design every time I come up with a design in the future.”

“How is that possible? Don’t think too much about it. You don’t have any chance to meet each other now, nor do you work together. How can you see each other’s design drafts? Alright, don’t think about such nonsense.”

In the private room, Qiao Weiyang was almost completely sure that her designs were with Qiao Jierou.

There were many finished products and all kinds of semi-finished products.

If Qiao Jierou had all the drafts, she would be able to release many years’ worth of products.

However… how could Qiao Weiyang let her have her way?

…

The International Fashion Design Competition was a quadrennial competition. Every year, this competition would export many talents to the clothing industry.

Just like in previous years, the selection would be held in various countries. The contestants who passed the selection round would go to Europe to participate in the finals.

There were a lot of people signing up for the quarter-finals in S Country.

Qiao Weiyang and Qiao Jierou were among them.

In addition, there were also two designers from Qiao Group, Roman and Hu Haitian.

These two people were also the ones who slandered Qiao Weiyang in public in an interview a few days ago.

When they were in Qiao Group, they were suppressed by Qiao Weiyang’s works and could not stand out. They had deep resentment. After Qiao Weiyang left, Qiao Jierou quickly promoted them to design new brands.

Of course, they felt that their future was blocked by Qiao Weiyang and they were granted another chance by Qiao Jierou, so they prioritized Qiao Jierou and took pleasure in going against Qiao Weiyang.

The huge van drove Qiao Weiyang to the event location.

The competition had yet to officially begin. Qiao Weiyang sat in her seat and casually flipped through the script handed over by Lu Mingjue.

Ever since the previous movie was released, there were more and more scripts in Qiao Weiyang’s hands. The producers sincerely wanted to invite her.

Tao Huan lifted the curtains and looked outside. “Wow, I didn’t expect there to be so many designers.”

“Yes, there are many. There are hundreds of clothing companies of all sizes in Jingdu City alone. To be able to get a ranking in this competition is very valuable,” Qiao Weiyang said softly.

“Look over there. Qiao Jierou seems to be here too. How dare she come?” Tao Huan had also seen Qiao Weiyang work with needles. No matter how troublesome the modification of the clothes was, it was not a problem for her.

Therefore, Tao Huan had always scoffed at the slander of the outside world.

She couldn’t stand Qiao Jierou, that sinister woman.

“Focus on your own matters and ignore others.” After saying that, Qiao Weiyang glanced at the script. “Remind me to go over in 20 minutes.”

On Qiao Jierou’s side, Roman and Hu Haitian were beside her.

Roman was short and had heavy makeup on. When she spoke, she sounded coquettish. “Jierou, I’m so happy to be able to compete with you this time.”

“Just focus on the competition. You and Haitian are both very capable. You can definitely do it,” Qiao Jierou said gently.

“I’m relieved to hear that. If it were Qiao Weiyang, she definitely wouldn’t have given us this chance. You’re still the best.”

Hu Haitian also smiled and said, “Speaking of which, we’re not aiming to be nominated for the official competition. As long as we can get a ranking in the semi-finals, that’s enough.”

“Since Jierou has given us this opportunity, we must give it a try. Otherwise, we’ll be letting her down!” Roman said.

Hu Haitian thought about it and agreed. “Of course, it’d be better if we could participate in the finals with Jierou. However, Jierou’s ability has always been above ours. I’m just afraid that she’ll completely shake us off.”

“That’s for sure. Let’s not compare ourselves to Jierou. How can we compare her talent?”

Qiao Jierou listened to their compliments with satisfaction, and a smug smile appeared on her face.

As the three of them were chatting and laughing, they saw Qiao Weiyang get out of the nanny van.

Qiao Jierou’s expression suddenly turned serious for a second.

Roman also saw Qiao Weiyang and said, “She’s joining the competition too? No way.”

Hu Haitian pouted. “Her?”

Back then, the two of them often had plans and design drafts sent back to them by Qiao Weiyang. They had a lot of resentment toward Qiao Weiyang. In their opinion, Qiao Weiyang must have secretly used their design drafts but told them that they did not pass.

Once they had that thought, it was deeply rooted in their hearts, and it remained until now.

“She used to use our design drafts, and now she’s using Jierou’s. I want to see what designs she’ll use for this competition!” Roman said disdainfully.

“Forget it. No matter whose work she uses, just let her be,” Qiao Jierou said. “Everyone, get ready.”

There were many people at the event location. Qiao Weiyang walked in. She was wearing sunglasses and a mask, which she only took off when verifying her identity.
