At this moment, Shu Xinyu entered the resting room. She looked at Ning Tongtong and smiled warmly. ” Tongtong, congratulations. ”
Ning Tongtong stepped forward and hugged Shu Xinyu. ” Mom, thank you for your support. ”
“I know, you’re the best! Your work is really outstanding. Mom is proud of you.” Shu Xinyu praised.
Ning Tongtong smiled happily. It was not easy to get all of this!
The smile on Shu Xinyu’s face disappeared. ” I didn’t expect the runner-up to be Qiao Mu. I wanted to grab hold of her and sue her for plagiarizing your work, but she managed to pass the finals without a hitch! ”
“Mom, forget it. As long as she doesn’t get in my way, I won’t hold it against her for what happened in the past.”
Actually, Ning Tongtong was feeling guilty. She didn’t want to make a big deal out of it, as it wouldn’t do her any good.
Anyway, the championship was hers. She didn’t care about anything else!
At this moment, Ning Tongtong’s assistant said,” President Shu, you don’t know this, but Qiao Mu’s work in the final round today was almost identical to Sister Tong’s. Sister Tong relied on that successful work to win first place. I wonder where Qiao Mu plagiarized Sister Tong’s design drafts from, and she almost got her way! ”
Ning Tongtong had used Qiao Mu’s artwork. As long as she and Amy knew about it, no one else would know about it, so the assistant had no idea at all. When she mentioned this, she was still indignant.
” What?! ” Shu Xinyu’s expression changed. ” Tongtong, is that true? Why didn’t you tell Mom?!”
Ning Tongtong glared at her assistant. ” Who told you to talk so much! Isn’t he fine now?”
Shu Xinyu frowned. ” Looks like this matter is true? Qiao Mu’s imitation and plagiarism over and over again is too detestable. No, she doesn’t deserve to be the runner-up!”
Ning Tongtong comforted her, ” Mom, don’t be angry. I didn’t tell you because I was worried that it would affect your mood. Let’s not argue with her. She has a backer! ”
“Tongtong, you’re too kind, that’s why you’re bullied! That girl Qiao Mu is too scheming. Don’t get involved with her in the future.”
“I know, Mom.”
At this moment, a staff member came in from outside and informed Ning Tongtong, ” Miss Ning, there’s a celebration party this afternoon. You and your family can come. ”
Ning Tongtong was stunned. ” Really? I haven’t heard of it before.”
” It’s a last-minute event. Miss Ning is the champion, so she can’t be absent. ”
Ning Tongtong smiled and agreed. How could she not go? She wanted everyone to be blinded by her brilliance!
Qiao Mu left Key and waited for the celebration party in the afternoon.
She looked at her phone and hesitated about how to send a message to Li Yan. It was the second half of the night in New York. Li Yan must have fallen asleep. She did not know what had happened to her during the competition.
She should have sent him a message immediately to tell him the results of the competition, but now, she didn’t know how to tell him.
Sighing, she put her phone back into her pocket. Forget it, she should settle the matters in the afternoon and contact him at night.
Suddenly, her phone rang. She took it out and saw that it was a call from Li Yan!
Qiao Mu was stunned for a moment before she quickly picked up the call and asked, “”Uncle, why aren’t you asleep yet?”
“I can’t sleep because of the jet lag.”
The man’s clear and indifferent voice drifted into Qiao Mu’s ears, and the depression in Qiao Mu’s heart instantly disappeared. She then smiled. ” Uncle, don’t tell me you’re not sleeping because you’re paying attention to my competition? ”
“How could you guess that?”
Li Yan did not hide anything and admitted it directly, which stunned Qiao Mu.
