Quick Transmigration: Drama Queen's Daily Life Chapter 1519 - 1508: Revenge for My Sister
Previously on Quick Transmigration: Drama Queen's Daily Life...
The assistant now doesn’t know whether to say the girl in front of him is foolish or ignorant, just so easily choosing to believe Li Zhihua’s words, or is she pretending not to know?
"Then let me ask one last question, you just said Zhan Yao showed signs of recovery after being criticized, do you have anything of hers? Like manuscripts or something."
"Yes." Chang Fei no longer hid anything and took it out with honesty.
The assistant looked at the manuscript paper in awe, then asked Chang Fei, "Seeing such excellent work, why didn’t you think of claiming it as your own and instead kept it hidden?"
Chang Fei gave an awkward smile, "I don’t have the capability to match this manuscript’s quality. Even if I got famous for a while, eventually I would be exposed."
The assistant sighed, this girl still has some self-awareness, unlike Li Zhihua who did something equally foolish.
As the assistant was leaving, Chang Fei ran after him and asked, "Mr. Lin, if it turns out Li Zhihua really did something wrong to Zhan Yao, would I be implicated?"
Assistant Lin shook his head, "Rest assured, you haven’t done anything to harm Zhan Yao. Even if there’s anything, the police won’t hold you accountable. Also, what was promised to you is always valid, and you’re welcome to intern at Teacher Jiang’s company after you graduate."
Chang Fei gratefully thanked him, "Thank you, really, thank you. If, and I mean if in the future you need me to testify, I’m ready anytime."
"Okay, and if Li Zhihua and Wang Chengyang come looking for you, I hope you won’t reveal what we discussed today."
"I won’t."
That’s how Ye Qiu learned that her sister Zhan Yao had created something before her death, and Teacher Jian Lifan even submitted it on her sister’s behalf.
So she used this to threaten Wang Chengyang. Wang Chengyang looked visibly shocked and scared because he did know Zhan Yao was still creating before she died, but weren’t those unfinished manuscripts already destroyed? How did this person know? Since he knows this, could he know more, otherwise why write this letter? Is he here for revenge or to extort money?
If it’s the latter, it’s easier to handle, but if it’s the former... Wang Chengyang’s eyes darkened, he must find out who is behind this.
At the same time, another letter was sent to Li Zhihua, with the same address at South City Park.
The next day, the two people Ye Qiu had fooled met at the park, both shocked at seeing each other, then simultaneously pulled out their letters, but no matter how long they waited, no one showed up.
"Who is toying with us?" Li Zhihua said angrily, but what she feared more was whether that person knows something?
Li Zhihua thought hard but couldn’t think of a suspicious person and finally focused her attention on Wang Chengyang, "Did anything happen to you recently?"
Wang Chengyang avoided eye contact and forced a smile, "What could happen to me? You’re overthinking."
Seeing his reaction, Li Zhihua understood more. She took a deep breath and said angrily, "You’re still not saying? Do we have to wait until it’s irreparable?"
Wang Chengyang lowered his head as she shouted, "Just yesterday, when I was meeting Ye Qiu, a biker gang snatched a briefcase from me, inside it was..."
"What was inside?"
Wang Chengyang answered softly, "Inside was Zhan Yao’s original draft for Fenghua."
"You still kept that?" Li Zhihua yelled in anger, "I repeatedly told you to destroy everything of Zhan Yao’s, why did you keep it, and why did you take it to meet Ye Qiu?"
Li Zhihua looked at Wang Chengyang with suspicion and anger. Why didn’t Wang Chengyang destroy Zhan Yao’s things? Did he keep them to use against her? What a deep concealment, if not for this incident, she might never have known.
"I just wanted to trick Ye Qiu, I didn’t mean anything." Wang Chengyang anxiously explained, "We’re not supposed to dwell on this now, but rather figure out who is behind it."
"Could it be Ye Qiu?" Li Zhihua suddenly thought, "Otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence?"
"No." Wang Chengyang shook his head, "I tested her, she went straight home alone afterward, didn’t meet anyone, nor took anything. Besides, she wishes to expose everything inside and even asked me to call the police. How could she then turn to blackmail us unnecessarily?"
"You have a point." Li Zhihua boiled with anger, "Then who is it? If they called us here, why didn’t they show up? What’s their purpose?"
"He hasn’t called the police, could it be he wants money? Maybe he’s doing this to fluster us and extort more." Wang Chengyang speculated.
"You might be right, but I can’t think of anyone who knows so much about us. How much can an ordinary robber guess from the school forum’s discussions? And how could he know about Zhan Yao’s later works? Unless he was someone very close to Zhan Yao and us back then."
"Could it be Uncle Zhan?" Wang Chengyang guessed.
"It’s not him." Li Zhihua said confidently, "He’s abroad now and doesn’t have the guts."
"Is it someone from your studio or a friend?"
"No, wait, there’s one person who might know." Li Zhihua suddenly realized.
"Who?"
"Chang Fei."
"Then I’ll immediately send someone to find her."
However, by the time Wang Chengyang’s people reached Chang Fei’s old home, she had already vanished. This made the two of them even more convinced that it was Chang Fei’s doing. Believing they found the mastermind, they quietly breathed a sigh of relief since Chang Fei posed no threat to them, and her being poor, she most likely did it for money and wouldn’t expose them.
While searching for Chang Fei, Li Zhihua’s stolen series of works by Ye Qiu had made it to the semifinals of a major competition. She set off for Sea City, as the final required the designer to be present. She confidently booked a plane ticket and prepared to celebrate her expected win.
In A City, Jian Lifan and Ye Qiu were preparing to board a plane. He spoke heavily to Ye Qiu, "At this competition, I will expose Li Zhihua’s plagiarism of your and Zhan Yao’s work, but unfortunately, I haven’t found any strong evidence regarding Zhan Yao’s death."
Ye Qiu felt touched, "If Senior Zhan knew you, Teacher, were standing up for her, she would definitely be very happy."
"I just want to bring clarity to the design world. People already say the industry’s atmosphere isn’t good. If we keep someone like Li Zhihua, it’s the biggest harm to our field. As someone with some achievements in Hua Country’s fashion industry, I can’t just look away from these things."
"You’re absolutely right, Teacher. Keeping someone like Senior Li Zhihua would be the biggest insult to us original creators. She must be punished."
"Rest assured, I will make her speechless and ensure she withdraws from this circle."
