Chapter 116 A Furious Beating of Plagiarists
Chapter 116 A Furious Beating of Plagiarists
Wang Nana's brain raced, and she came up with a completely baffling reason: "I remember now! I added the watermark myself; I forgot."
Ye Xinghe chuckled, looking at her like she was an idiot. "Did you grow a head just to look taller? Why did you add a watermark to my name?"
"Wang Nana, I'm going to beat you until you give up today!"
Next, Ye Xinghe opened the design drawing at the entrance and magnified the image 100 times. There, on the lintel, was a black line composed of countless instances of the phrase "Wang Nana is a plagiarist."
Ye Xinghe's lips curled into a cold smile, "Have you given up now?"
"Could this be another watermark you added yourself?"
At this moment, Su Xiaotong, who was sitting in the audience, stood up and said, "Distinguished leaders, the design of this entrance was copied from me by Wang Nana."
After this was said, several more people stood up and testified that Wang Nana had plagiarized parts of their work.
Faced with overwhelming evidence, Wang Nana was speechless. She glared at Ye Xinghe fiercely, wishing she could tear her to pieces.
Ye Xinghe stood on the podium, resting her chin on her hand. "How about that? You picked up the chewing gum we spat out and kept chewing it, and you even showed off in front of everyone that you blew a big bubble. You were so proud of yourself."
Wang Nana pointed at Ye Xinghe's nose and cursed, "You bitch, how dare you scheme against me?"
Ye Xinghe looked surprised. "I'd be willing to scheme against you. I have to thank you for the USB drive you gave me."
"Now that the evidence is conclusive, quickly kneel down and apologize to everyone."
Wang Nana tore up the contract in her hand like a madwoman. "You want me to apologize? No way! Ye Xinghe, you don't actually think our bet will stand, do you?"
Ye Xinghe glanced at her with disdain, "I knew you'd be stubborn, you dog."
"We just signed a gift contract, which means that all the property under your name now belongs to me. Today's meeting was recorded in its entirety, so tearing it up won't change anything."
"I'll notify the lawyer in a bit to go to Beijing to handle the formalities. It's too late for you to transfer your assets now. You should use this time to discuss with your parents where to go in the future."
Wang Nana turned ashen-faced and collapsed to the ground.
Ye Xinghe strode over and looked down at her, "Are you stupid or what? You might as well just admit you plagiarized. You actually want 51% of Ye's shares? You really dare to dream!"
Wang Nana raised her head and growled menacingly, "Ye Xinghe, you just wait! I will never let you get away with this!"
Before she could finish speaking, Ye Xinghe raised her arm and slapped him across the face. "Sorry, but I'm the kind of person who doesn't want to wait until later. I have to settle my scores now."
As soon as Wang Nana turned her head, Ye Xinghe slapped her again, "Didn't you just call me a bitch?"
"Don't look at me like that. If you insult me or threaten me, I'll hit you."
"When I called you a plagiarist, I wasn't insulting you, because you are one." After saying that, Ye Xinghe smiled, clapped her hands, and returned to the audience.
Because of Wang Nana's plagiarism incident, headquarters needed to re-evaluate the top ten designs. This meeting only announced the 15 employees who were eliminated.
That's how the Huashi Group works; the work pace is very fast. If the content is found to be substandard, the employee is immediately eliminated; there's no need to waste each other's time. However, for any employee who submits their design drafts on time, Huashi writes a very respectable letter of recommendation.
"Beautiful Ye, you were so cool on stage just now! Want to have lunch together?" Wang Yu approached with a grin.
Ye Xinghe forced a smile, but before she could speak, she heard Hua Qingmeng call out from behind, "Ye Xinghe, come here for a moment."
Ye Xinghe quickly slipped away and went into the president's office.
Hua Qingmeng took the star-shaped cup, filled it with water, and asked, "Want to come to the capital with me this weekend?"
Ye Xinghe looked puzzled. "Where are we going?"
Hua Qingmeng took a sip of water in front of her. "You don't want to deal with Shen Yan's matter anymore?"
Ye Xinghe looked up at him. "She went back to the capital? What a coward who dares to do something but not to admit it."
She thought for a moment, then said, "Shall we walk?"
Hua Qingmeng returned to her desk. "Go ahead and get busy. We're leaving on Saturday. I'll let you know the time once it's set."
Just as Ye Xinghe was about to leave, she turned back and said, "You have good taste; I have one of those cups too."
After saying that, he left the office.
Hua Qingmeng stroked the water glass in her hand, a faint smile on her face.
"What are you laughing at by yourself for?" Su Nanqing pushed open the door and came in as soon as Ye Xinghe left.
Hua Qingmeng snapped out of her daze, her face darkening. "Why didn't you knock?"
Su Nanqing laughed and teased, "What are you thinking about in broad daylight? I didn't even hear you knocking."
Hua Qingmeng reverted to her usual coldness. "What brings you here?"
Su Nanqing sat down opposite him. "Regarding what happened at today's meeting, I have to remind you that Ye Xinghe from your group is no ordinary person."
Hua Qingmeng looked directly at her and said, "Ye Xinghe is very smart and well-educated. The Ye family's daughter is definitely different from ordinary women."
Su Nanqing cautioned, "Being smart is a good thing. But if you go too far, it won't be good."
Hearing her speak ill of Ye Xinghe, Hua Qingmeng was displeased and didn't want to argue with her further. "Sister-in-law is right."
Knowing that Hua Qingmeng didn't want to discuss the matter further, Su Nanqing changed the subject, "Are you going back to the capital this weekend? Your older brother is coming back."
Hua Qingmeng lowered his head and said two words in a low voice: "Go back."
Su Nanqing smiled and said, "Okay, I'll arrange the plane. We'll travel together then."
Hua Qingmeng ignored her and continued tidying up the documents on the table. "No need, I can do it myself."
That evening, Ye Xinghe returned home and saw Ye Xingchen playing games on the sofa.
"Second brother, you seem to be in a good mood today! It's so nice to see that you've lived another day healthily."
Ye Xingchen threw down his phone and wrapped his arms around Ye Xinghe's neck. "What do you mean by 'lived an extra day'?! Do you even know how to talk?!"
Ye Xinghe forcefully pulled his arm away and broke free. "Don't blame me for not warning you. I have a feeling that the mentally ill person will come looking for you again in the next few days. Be careful."
"No way, your second brother is very clever!"
Ye Xinghe simply didn't believe that Xing Fei would let her second brother off so easily, so she instructed Qiao Lin to keep a close eye on him in the next few days.
The next day, Ye Xinghe had just arrived at the company when she received a message from Qiao Lin.
"I saw Xing Fei in the parking lot; she came to the hospital."
Ye Xinghe: "Keep an eye on her. If necessary, take action directly. I'll cover for you if anything goes wrong."
