Chapter 354: Rong Qi is Camellia?!
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Gu Yuyan’s assistant worriedly said, “But plagiarism is…”
The assistant thought that the eight unimportant individuals could be ignored, but once a designer was labeled as a plagiarist, it was akin to digging their own grave.
And this time, Gu Yuyan’s design was actually inspired by Camellia’s work! So, they had their own guilt to bear. They just didn’t expect it to blow up like this.
If Jian Yuncheng didn’t relent, they were done for! Even if they had the backing of the Jian family, later on, it would be futile.
Now, Jian Yuncheng’s Weibo hadn’t shown any activity yet, so they still had a chance to negotiate and settle.
Gu Yuyan gritted her teeth and slammed everything on the table to the ground with a loud crash. Her gaze was fierce and menacing, and she said, “Nothing has gone smoothly since 1 returned! Look at what you’ve done!”
The assistant didn’t dare to say a word. She whispered, “Yuyan, how about I try to contact Camellia directly now? We can resolve this privately.”
Gu Yuyan glared at her assistant fiercely. The assistant trembled and immediately began trying to contact Camellia.
In truth, the assistant also felt wronged. Before Gu Yuyan returned to Neocathai, she had asked her assistants to collect a series of well-known designs from Leucia, and she had picked the drawing by Camellia.
The assistant knew that Gu Yuyang used to be a designer as well, and later, she ventured into 2D drawings. So, the assistant thought there wouldn’t be any conflicts between them, and many of the design inspirations for Jingsheng Corporation’s collaborations had come from Camellia.
Now, with Camellia’s appearance and Jingsheng Corporation being such a large group, if something went wrong, the consequences would be unimaginable. This time, Gu Yuyang was penny-wise and pound-foolish. It was her impatience that had prevented them from finding a better way to tap into the Leucia market.
The assistant also had some grievances about Gu Yuyan’s stubbornness.
Gu Yuyan placed both hands on the table and clenched her teeth. She didn’t care about what others thought of her. However, when it was about Ye Nanshen, she couldn’t afford to have any blemishes in front of him.
Soon, Gu Yuyan’s staff managed to contact Rong Qi, dialed the number, and reorganized their words before speaking.
“Is this Camellia herself? Hello, this is Gu Yuyan’s studio, there are some things we’d like to discuss with you, may 1 ask…”
“No need for so much nonsense. Just let Gu Yuyan answer the phone.” Rong Qi interrupted Gu Yuyan’s assistant.
The assistant had activated the speakerphone, and upon hearing that voice, Gu Yuyan was so angry that her eyes almost shot flames. She thought, ‘Who gave her the right to be so arrogant?!’
But there was nothing Gu Yuyan could do. After all, they were the ones in the wrong in this situation. If it weren’t for Jian Yuncheng’s reputation, she wouldn’t be in such a passive position.
“I am Gu Yuyan. What do you want to say? Say it,” Gu Yuyan said with a clenched jaw. “If you have any conditions, just state them.”
“So, does Miss Gu admit to copying my work?” Rong Qi asked.
Gu Yuyan was infuriated to the point where her eyes were shooting sparks.
However, after a moment of silence, a lazy voice said, “Miss Gu, have you still not recognized my voice? It’s been a long time, hasn’t it? Unexpectedly, our second contact would be about you copying my work.”
This statement was enough to make Gu Yuyan seethe with rage. However, she restrained herself and said through gritted teeth, “Rong… Qi!”
“Yes. Miss Gu, you’ve finally remembered? It seems that you still care about my inspiration muse,” Rong Qi said indifferently.
“What do you want?”
‘Camellia was Rong Qi, and this had escalated beyond a mere design issue. The problem was now much bigger.’ Gu Yuyan thought.
Rong Qi’s voice remained calm, and she said, “It’s simple. If you want a private settlement, then issue an apology on Weibo, withdraw the cease and desist letters, and pin the apology statement at the top. This matter will be considered resolved.. How about it?”
