Fu Jingchuan's to-the-point question once again focused the attention of everyone in the audience on Shangguan Linlin, and the whispers began again.
Shangguan Linlin looked flustered.
"I..." She wanted to speak, but she didn't know what to say for a moment. She was completely caught off guard by Fu Jingchuan's words.
In panic, Shangguan Linlin had to look to Shen Qingyao for help.
Shen Qingyao gave her a disappointed look. She had clearly seen Fu Jingchuan's toughness and difficulty in fooling him, but she didn't expect that she would continue to avoid the easy and easy in such an occasion.
Fu Jingchuan didn't intend to let her fool her: "Isn't it convenient for Miss Shangguan to tell you?"
Shangguan Linlin bit his lower lip and was at a loss. The hand holding the phone was tightly clenched, and his thumb quietly opened the hospital interface again. His originally panic-stricken face saw the parent-child message popping up on the phone interface. When the result of the report came on, she looked at Fu Jingchuan:
“The electronic draft exists because I admire Director Shi’s work, so I thought of learning her design ideas in detail. It was just for learning, and I didn’t think anything else about it at the time.
"As for the issue of letting things go, I have just said that. At first, I just couldn't bear to see my grandparents disappointed, so I acquiesced to their misunderstanding. I also planned to design other works to replace this one, but I didn't expect that because The communication between my brother and I was not timely, which led to him using Shiyang's work to apply for the project. At this time, I was scared and at a loss, and in my timidity, I missed the best opportunity to clarify.
"I didn't feel at ease when I faced reporters yesterday, but as the daughter of the Shen family, I couldn't embarrass the Shen family in such an occasion, so I had to bite the bullet and accept the interview.
"But yesterday's PPT plan initially did not have design renderings. The bidding was only for the Shen Family Manor, not for Shiyang's design plan. Our plan will be changed later, but because we were in a hurry yesterday, we took the wrong one. PPT, which resulted in Shiyang’s design appearing on the big screen, so I was misunderstood that I wanted to use Shiyang’s design.”
Shen Qingyao's face suddenly darkened, and he looked at Shangguan Linlin in disbelief. He didn't expect that she would dare to retract her confession in front of the media, and even try to get him to accompany her to perjury.
Shangguan Linlin also looked at him. She didn't say anything. She just quietly turned the phone screen to him, pressed down the phone, and whispered to him: "Brother, help me."
Shen Qingyao glanced at the screen of his mobile phone, his expression changed slightly, and he looked at Shangguan Linlin in disbelief.
Shangguan Linlin's eyes were slightly red, and there was pleading in his eyes, asking him to accept what she just said. It was not that they wanted to plagiarize Shi Yang's work, but that Shen Qingyao took the wrong design of Shi Yang in a hurry, which made the public misunderstand what he wanted to do. By using Shiyang's work, Shangguan Linlin can be completely cleared of the charge of plagiarism.
Her entire logic has been sorted out very clearly. In the early stage, because she could not bear to disappoint the elderly, she did not deny it immediately, but she went to design her own work immediately. However, due to lack of communication with Shen Qingyao during this period, Shen Qingyao took the She submitted Shiyang's design drawings to apply, which caused subsequent misunderstandings. But now that the finished building has not been released, their final product will use her design instead, which means there is no possibility of plagiarizing Shiyang's work.
As long as Shen Qingyao accepts her story, it will be fine. Shen Qingyao even has a PPT without a rendering of the manor to testify.
But Shen Qingyao didn't nod immediately, nor did he speak. He just stared at her with his dark eyes, looking at her expression of great struggle.
Fu Jingchuan also noticed Shangguan Linlin turning to Shen Qingyao's mobile phone. His eyebrows were furrowed and his black eyes were looking straight at Shen Qingyao.
Shen Qingyao pursed his lips tightly and glanced at Fu Jingchuan from a distance, his expression extremely complicated.
At the moment, he has only two options, either to accept what Shangguan Linlin said and minimize the damage to Shangguan Linlin's reputation caused by this incident, or to deny Shangguan Linlin's words and force her to apologize. But with this result, Shangguan It was ruined as soon as it came, but...
Shen Qingyao looked hesitantly at the cell phone Shangguan Linlin was holding, undecided.
Today is different from yesterday. This press conference cannot be ended. The only choice is to admit it or not.
Fu Jingchuan didn't give him a chance to hesitate. He raised the microphone and looked at Shen Qingyao: "Since Mr. Shen is also a party involved, please give an explanation."
